When Gabriel go back to the small cottage he saw that the door was open. He had to wonder if it was actually Desiree who had open the door at all. He hoped that it had been and nobody had been there to give her any trouble. He didn't actually wanna have to deal with anyone invading their privacy for a little while at least. That's why he didn't wanna push her to go into the castle. He knew that she needed time to adjust to her new surroundings and her new reality that was her life. If things had been different and she had been raised on the island she would be at the castle right now. On her 18th birthday she would have been transferred over to him. Do they didn't really have a real ceremony of that happening he would have taking the responsibility of her then.
when he neared the door he saw her just sitting there still within the cottage but I'm for just looking out. “is everything OK?” he asked as he walked into the cottage and placed everythi
“why would you wanna know about that?” knowing that that was going to open a bunch of wounds that she really didn't need to deal with right then and there. She already had enough to deal with with realizing that pretty much her entire life had been a lie. There was a lot of things that he would say to her and he would never hold anything back just because she had the right to know what was going on for their people. Whether she realized it or not she was already there Princess. There was a lot of things that she needed to come to grips with because he was basically what would be the equivalent of a crowned Prince and they were already given to each other by their parents. An arranged marriage of sorts. He understood that she had the right to know but at the same time everything was coming to her so quickly that it was going to be an issue with the way that she had to deal with things. Mentale he didn't know if she was able to comprehend all of the small details that w
“Tell me about them.” She said softly.“Your parents?” he asked. Then he realized that he had opened this can of worms himself. She really had no idea how her parents were. She didn’t know them. “your mother was one of the nicest people I'd ever met. She was my godmother. She was my mother's best friend. They were cousins I believe. Most likely they were distant cousins though. Your mother was one of those people dead it didn't matter how distant the relationship was it was always there.”“What about my father?” Desiree asked as she looked at him and was hoping that the man was nice and that he had actually enjoyed being a father.“he was a little difficult but for the most part he was one of those people that would get down and play with everybody. He did it on you. When everybody had said that you should have been a male heir he didn't care period I remember him carrying you around when
Desiree went upstairs to go take a shower and Gabriel just sat on the couch looking out the door towards the water. Her questions had brought up a lot of memories that he had forced to keep down or he was told to keep out of his head.“whatever you do make sure that my daughter stay safe.” diedra send as she looked at her best friend in the entire world. Gabriel was nothing more than a few years old at the time and they were both in the nursery with their mothers. It was one of the rare times that he had been allowed to go into the young girls nursery. He was just sitting there holding her on the floor as both their mothers looked at them. “you know as well as I do that they're gonna come for them. They'll have to go through me first to get to her and if they manage that I want you to do whatever you have to do to make sure that my daughter stays safe.”“of course, you know that I would do anything to protect both of them as
Desiree was exhausted. Last statement just hung in the air and was also one of the most damning things that she had ever heard in her entire life. The look on his face was almost completely excruciating pain just for the simple fact that he didn't wanna doubt his own mother but something in his memories was telling him that it was a lot more than what he had been told in the years afterwards. Desiree didn't have the same issues because she couldn't remember anything from before she had left play island.she went to the couch and just sat next to him and looked out the window to the trees and watched as the leaves blew in the wind. The soft sound that was coming off of the trees and the smell of the ocean will still be coming closer to the small cottage. Desiree had never been one that actually liked water that much. But right now just being able to see it off in the distance over the trees that were blowing in the wind it was a calming aspect to this that she ne
When the two ate in silence and then went to the second level of the cottage she looked around. Though it was one floor it was also one room. It was more like a loft then an actual second floor.There were two pallets made that were side by side. She didn’t care because she had slept in a lot less with nothing to her name. Gabriel had not tried anything with her and she knew he did seem to care about her. She laid down and was out so very quickly.Gabriel also laid down at the same time and he could feel the pull to her. He knew that she had been exhausted and she also needed to rest. He hoped that she would have some clarity in the morning but he also knew it would take time. He had uprooted her entire life in one quick move. He was surprised that she still seemed pretty open to him and the idea that he was there. Though he knew that it was probably nothing more than her being overwhelming tired. He watched her as she slept and knew t
As the two just lay there continuing their kissing and the slight exploration of each other labels knew that nothing more than this could happen so they were going to make the most of it. At least right now. A lot of things that Desiree have been told to her entire life we're now coming to the forefront of her mind. She wasn't trying to think of things that her mother, or the one that had raised her, had actually said numerous times throughout her life that people would only want her because of her body. It had to be completely different with Gabriel because he was her mate. He was the prime reason that she had been found in restored to this island. In a way she felt better than she had and a very long time but at the exact same time she felt a lot worse than she ever had before.The fire between them just grew even more then she had expected it would. It seemed like both of them were burning. His large hand was splayed across her back and in the coolness of the
As the morning grew but the pair only stayed in bed. They knew they did have to get out of it. Though neither one of them actually wanted to. Eventually his stomach started to grow and he knew that it was time for them to eat something. For right now he was the one in charge how's the actual adult. He didn't actually know how he felt about that or not because it was something that he never expected that he would have to play the role of. Not that he wasn't responsible but he was now completely responsible for her and her safety. And that meant her health as well.“come on we have to eat. then I can show you around the rest of the island if you want. We don't have to stay in this little cottage all day.” Gabriel said with a smile. he wanted to share everything with her. He wanted her to understand where she came from. Even though he couldn't replace the things that had happened over the past few years between all of the packs in the world he could giv
After getting her ready and helping get her to eat something that he was able to start the day right even though he knew it was a lot later than he wanted to start this. he couldn't complain about the late start though because it was of his own doing. He would never complain about that. And he wondered if he was ever going to be able to get out of bed before midday ever again as long as she was next to him. That was one thing that he would have to figure out eventually. He honestly didn't think that he could ever get enough of her. He had so many places that he wanted to take her today that he wasn't exactly sure if they would make it. Though right now he was going to take it easy and just keep up with what she could keep pace with. He was unsure how used to everything she would be. The island was small and you could hike it pretty much in an entire day but she would probably need to take breaks because she's still in the process of resting from all of turn of the past
