Tyler’s POV Never did I think that I would see Lexie so soon. When she walked out the back door and I sensed her my heart about stopped when my eyes met hers. She looked good like she had a glow about her. Like something or someone was making her happy and for a brief moment I thought maybe it was because of her seeing me but that thought was short lived when Samuel walked out and placed his arms around her like she was his. That is when I lost it. All hope that she was waiting for me to fix the situation was lost. Her words were harsh, and I realized that I deserved everything that she was saying to me but I was still clinging onto the hope that she would be mine someday. The wolf had made a promise to me to watch over her and to not take advantage of her in her state but he had broken that promise. But how does one blame him when such a beauty as Lexie is involved and when she was infuriated with me about leaving her alone without explaining her new needs as an immortal I knew r
Lexie’s POV I never was a fan of flying and I believe Samuel had figured that out as my nails were probably embedded into his leg by now as the plane took off. When the plane finely leveled off, I slowly loosened my grip on his leg, and I could hear a sigh of relief from Samuel beside me and I quickly looked at his face and I could see that I had caused him pain. “I am so sorry.” I said to him as I began to rub his leg where my hand was gripping him. He leaned into whisper to me, “Lexie, Sweetheart you have the strength of ten men now. Could you please take it a little easier on my poor leg.” And then he chuckled which made me laugh. Here I was scared of flying when in reality I was an immortal. I had no idea why flying made me so scared other than the whole plummeting out of the sky to a horrible death. The flight attendant came to us with her cart and asked if we would like a beverage. Samuel quickly ordered us two stiff drinks and handed one to me to drink hoping it would cal
Lexie’s POV We had spent the most part of our first day in that beautiful king size bed making love, but night was upon us and neither of us had eaten all day. As I slide the semi formal looking dress down over my head, I look in the floor length mirror approving it but then something catches my eye. A smile on my face something that hadn’t been there for so long. Something no man had ever truly put there before now. Large arms snake from behind me and pulls my back into him as I continue to stare at the mirror seeing the same smile on his face too. Is this what happiness was? “You look beautiful.” Samuel says as he places a kiss on the top of my head. “And so do you.” I said as I turned in his arm and reached up to place my lips on his. Just then I heard the rumbling of his stomach and being to giggle before I said, “I think my wolf needs fed.” “Your wolf?” He said as he began to attempt to tickle me. “Yes, my wolf.” I said as he stopped trying to tickle me and looked deep
Samuel’s POV The day had gone absolutely amazing until Lexie thought that something had happened to Tyler. It was in that moment that I knew she still loved him. The fear that something had happened to him drove her mad and I wasn’t able to reason with her until I made a call to Emily so that they could verify to her that Tyler was okay. After she had gotten confirmation that he was okay she went to the bathroom and took a shower with not a word to me. I was a fool to think for a second that this was real between us. She was clearly never going to give herself to me as long as Tyler lived. At that moment I realized that I needed to get out of the room before I said something to her that I was going to regret. As I walked down the pathway that led to the restaurant and bars, I heard music and began to walk towards it as I stumbled upon a bar and I found an empty bar stool and sat down on it. “You look like you could use a drink my friend.” The bartender said to me, and he was rig
Lexie’s POV Last night I had realized that I had made a grave mistake with Samuel. I knew that I had hurt him when he was gone when I came out of the shower. Clearly, I had overreacted thinking something was wrong with Tyler and I had ruined the moment that Samuel and I had just shared. I had no clue how it was even possible that I could have marked two separate men as mine and wondered if it had to do with them being different super naturals. I also wondered if allowing Samuel to mark me would remove this marking of Chase’s. It was something that I had thought about all night long, but I clearly had no one to talk to and I still couldn’t find my phone. If I could call Emily, she may be able to talk to Darla the witch that is a friend of Sophia’s, and she might know if it would work. Plus, I honestly didn’t know what I wanted. If Tyler wasn’t in the picture, I honestly would have considered last night sealing the mating bond with Samuel, but I just can’t do that right now because
Lexie’s POV Before we knew it we were boarding the catamaran as party music played and we were asked if we would like a drink. Samuel and I decided on the Jamaican punch that they had already pre-made as we found an area to sit while we waited on a few couples to board with us. After the couples were aboard we headed out into the water towards a coral reef where we were to go snorkeling. I’d never been snorkeling before this and I was super excited to finally get my chance. As we neared the reef one of the guides began to show us the basics of snorkeling and I watched him closely so that I didn’t make a fool of myself in front of Samuel. Samuel on the other hand went to the bar to get us another drink and I am guessing this wasn’t his first time snorkeling because he wasn’t paying any attention to the guide. When he returned with our drinks, he wrapped his arm around me, and I snuggled into him as we waited for the boat to anchor. Once the boat anchored, we got up and moved to
Samuel’s POV There was something about that man that I didn’t trust and I needed to make sure from here on out that I kept Lexie near me. I had noticed his reference to her as royal and princess which leads me to believe that he was like her other side. I wonder if that is what was calling to her the other night when she went into the water and I had to pull her to safety. I knew very little about Lexie’s siren side. It wasn’t like there were clans of them all over the land because their kind kept to the water. Tonight, I needed to make sure that I call my brother and have him look into if one of their clans may be residing here. I needed to do whatever it takes to keep Lexie safe even if that includes my brother and his contacts. After Rick’s we boarded back onto the catamaran and headed off to sea where we were to watch the sunset from the boat. Lexie and I found a comfortable area aboard where we could have some privacy and watch the sun go down together. As I held Lexie in my
Lexie’s POV Room service arrived and Samuel and I sat and ate our food as we watched the movie. I was beginning to feel better once I got the soup and crackers into me. Samuel had fallen asleep on the couch before the movie was over, but I couldn’t sleep. I grabbed the remote and started to surf through the channels when I came across the nightly news station where they were giving the weather forecast for the rest of the week. Everyday looked good except for Friday which wasn’t too bad for it to only rain once while we were here. Putting the remote down on the table I got up to use the bathroom but as I walked out of the room, I stopped dead in my tracks when I heard his name and quickly moved back to the television to listen. “Mr. Tyler Conner was pronounced dead two days ago at his home in Florida. The wealthy businessman was known for his generous donations that he has made to many organizations and foundations. There is an ongoing investigation into his death, and we will u
