Her Two Proud Wolves Chapter 129
Adelia's Point of View"So you two want to move back into the pack house," Nessa asked as we strode across the lawn of the very same house she just mentioned.I glanced at her from the corner of my eye. Carried on walking until we reached the back of the house where the pool and recreational house were. The event was going to be back here. Most of the canvas tents were going to be pitched up to the left side of the pool. A kiddy area was going to be set up inside the recreational house, babysitter, and everything. White picket-fencing would come up around the pool with several chrome balls floating in it. Fairy light canopy. A stage. Dance floor. A ceremonial area in the wooded area where Alvara and her family had held a picnic the other day.So many things to do and so many people to pay for it all."We don't know yet. Siya wants to but I feel you coming and going from your house all the time to heal him is just too much to ask," I said to her without glancing her way once.A few o

Adelia's Point of View"First off, I want to ask you about something unrelated to what you might think I am here for," I started, clenching my hands between my knees.My gaze remained away from Michael, despite his eyes roaming me freely. I felt nervous. Buzzing with energy that I couldn't quite fathom. Couldn't quite place it. It wasn't the product of the new mate bond I had with Siya. This was different. Foreign. Like I had drank one too many beers and this was the outcome of it. A nervous and jittery body that refused to settle, even when the couch beneath me was far too comfortable.He was leaning back a bit, shoulders brushing the back of the couch. At ease with himself, although his foot constantly bounced against the floor.Also a little ball of energy, then. I wasn't the only one.Michael shrugged. "Whatever you want to talk about, I'm here for it. That's why I came, after all. To help you in any way that I possibly can." He seemed sincere when he said it. Well, sincere eno
Her Two Proud Wolves Chapter 131
Michael's Point of ViewShe looked like a frightened deer caught in headlights. Her entire body screamed that she was about to bolt. That whatever was going on in that head of hers, it wasn't pretty.All of her muscles had locked up. Face included. Screwed shut against the torrent of my words.And there was no one else to blame for her reaction but myself. I hated myself a bit more for causing her distress. Hated myself for having had taken away the little trust she had built in me entirely.But if it took my entire life to get it back, then so fucking be it.Hell, I had even bought these clothes because I thought it might make her a bit more comfortable around me. A bit more familiar. Although they made me feel like a painted whore. Pretty on the outside but rotten on the inside.I had done it for her. For her comfort.Maybe for myself as well. To give her the impression that I was more than willing to change anything about myself if it meant I got to spend even a morsel of time wit
Her Two Proud Wolves Chapter 132
Adelia's Point of ViewMy heart was still racing by the time I got back to Nessa's house. Michael's words kept echoing inside my head on a loop that I would much rather have paused. Sent shivers skittering across every inch of my skin as I remembered them.He looked so determined. So sure that this was the life that he wanted that it nearly pained me to deny him a chance to become one of us.Baby steps. All of this was going to take time and a hell of a lot of baby steps before we got to where I wanted us to be.If it hadn't been for the talk with Siya this morning, none of it would even have been possible to begin with. He had given me the final push to speak to Michael. Also to hear the man out instead of making up my mind on the spot. So, in essence, this was his doing.The damned mating bond was growing stronger and stronger with each passing second as well. Became a solid figure in my mind that I couldn't seem to shake. Like a rock or a tumor had formed in the middle of my bra

Adelia's Point of View"Del! Where are you?" A concerned Nessa called from the front door.Footsteps rushed into the house, two pairs, which meant she had gotten Aiden as well. "In the kitchen," I called back, feeling my lungs heave and burn with every movement of the cloth in my hands. Every last limb I had felt numb. Tired. Drained down to the damned bone. But Siya would be fine. Was sleeping off his little mishap in the medical room upstairs. Most of the blood had been cleaned up from the floor. The counter was wiped down and the food he had worked on now lay on top of his discarded paper towels. All of the knives had been moved to a different drawer, in case the cunt tried to cook or cut again.Upon closer inspection, I realized what he had tried to do. Cut a damned carrot, Julienne style. Somehow the knife must have slipped off of the carrot and with the way he had held the damned thing, it sliced him from the wrist up.A good two-inch gash right through his damned vein.He h
Her Two Proud Wolves Chapter 134
Adelia's Point of ViewI woke up to Siya's face hovering above me. His lips were parted in a large smile, showing off his straight white teeth. In one of his hands, he held a steaming cup of coffee. In the other, he had a plate of pastries doused in powdered sugar.From looking at him now, you would never have thought he had nearly died only a couple of hours ago."Good morning, sunshine. How'd you sleep?" He asked, setting the plate and coffee down on the cart in front of him.Squinting, I looked over at the windows to my left. Took in the warm light shimmering in through the sheer curtains. Not the light of later afternoon but of early morning. "How long have I been asleep for?" I groaned, throat parched.Siya smiled again and plucked up the coffee. Handed it to me. The sweet smell filled my nose. Jogged my brain. "Since yesterday afternoon. It's about nine in the morning now, last I checked." A jolt of guilt slashed through me. Dug its heels in deep and refused to let go. Hurri
Her Two Proud Wolves Chapter 135
Adelia's Point of ViewI was helped down the stairs. Helped, like a damned invalid. All because my body had decided healing a gash on an arm was one too much.Sure, give it a kidnapping. Nearly being killed. Being held captive by your deranged mother. Escaping said Mother. Organizing one large ass ceremony. And everything in between. But goddess forbid I tried healing someone. That was just fucking unacceptable.At first, both had offered to help me down. Neither wanted the other to help. A few glares had been exchanfged. Maybe a profanity or two, said through their eyes and luckily not their mouths.By the time they were done with their pissing contest, I was already at the door, tired of their bullshit. Scolded them for handling me like I was broken and not just tired. That had been the final straw for them to back off. Michael had been the winner in the end, to my utter dismay.His hand around my waist and my arm around his shoulders caused us to touch all up my side. Forced so m

Michael's Point of ViewShe was fine. More than fine, actually, from the looks of things. Adelia was joking and laughing. Kidding around with Siya and his lack of cooking skills. Made fun of the fact that a carrot nearly took him out. And her with him, if she hadn't stopped healing him when she had. But she was bubbly and happy. Looked relaxed, even when I tried to tickle her feet. Or got her to snort coffee through her nose by accident.This felt comfortable. Easy. Like this was the place I had always been destined to find. A home I always needed to occupy.Logically she had tried several times to get back to planning. Or tried to sneak away with her phone, just to make a few calls, she had assured us. Neither of us let her, on orders of the Beta of the pack.Your first healing was as taxing on the body as your first shift. Something I had to keep in mind once I won her over and got her to turn me. The process and changes of it all were grueling enough that even Alpha pups were
