Chapter Fifty-Five
(Christian POV)
I am drying myself from my cold shower thinking about everything that happened after we ate last night. She was silent at my confession that I wanted to be more than friends but I will take her silence as possible hope. We continued to hang out mostly with her friends but after a while it was just the two of us riding the ferris wheel as the sun began to set. Cheesy I know but it was perfect. Then when we were at the top I took my chance. I grabbed her face and placed a gentle kiss on her lips. It wasn’t demanding or lustful. I just tried to let her know how much she meant to me with that kiss. When I pulled back her eyes were closed a small smile on her lips but a single tear fell down her cheek. Before I could ask her why she was crying the ferris wheel began to move again, her eyes opened a
Chapter Fifty Six(Christian POV)I throw the tie down on the bed and decide that I will skip it for tonight as I slip on my jacket. It is traditional for the high ranking pack members to dress for events in something that has their pack colors. Tonight I am wearing a black shirt, pants and shoes. My suit jacket is a deep scarlet velvet material with a black satin lapel. I look back at the scarlet tie that is disposed of on the bed again before turning to leave my room.I make my way to the backyard where the ball is taking place and see a large dance floor set up in the center of tables decorated in various different colors with fall centerpieces. I begin to mingle around talking to other Alphas the whole time keeping my eyes on the search for one Alpha in particular.
Chapter Fifty Seven (Olivia POV) When I hear the lock click I surrender myself to him. I turn in his direction and sink onto my knees, my hands reaching for his belt. My body is literally in pain wanting me to rush through and finally get what I need but I don't. I move my hands slowly as I loosen his belt. I gaze up at him and lick my lips as I make my way to the button of his dress pants. “Olivia, stop.” My hands halt and I turn my eyes to the ground so that he can’t see the hurt there. He says he wants me but he won’t let me touch him. I feel as he places his hand under my chin turning my eyes up to his. His thumb grazes my bottom lip and I open my mouth slightly and let a moan out. “Olivia I am struggling to control myself please don
Chapter Fifty Eight (Chrisitan POV) It had been two months since the night I shared with my mate and it has been two months since I last saw and heard from her. I often relive those moments together when I am in my room alone and the memory of the morning after. **Flashback** I don’t even open my eyes, afraid that all that happened last night will have been a dream and she still won’t want me. The thought has King growling in my head. I roll over to wrap my mate in my arms to find the other side of the bed empty and cold causing my eyes to snap open. If it wasn’t for her scent lingering on the sheets I would worry it had all been a dream. I get up and notice that her dress and items including the skirt I nev
Chapter Fifty Nine (Olivia POV) ‘Liberty are you with me?’ ‘I’m with you but I am worried.’ ‘We are always worried when this time comes.’ ‘This is different, we can't shift this time.’ ‘Why Liberty? I feel like you have left me this time unable to shift to let you free. I know you are angry about what happened after we arrived.’ ‘It is not that. I have not left you.’ ‘What is it then?’ I am met by nothing but silence. I again feel alone as I get myself ready for the ceremony. I slip on my black dress the co
Chapter Sixty (Olivia POV) I just swing my feet off the bed when Bradley walks into the room. My mind was racing with the news the doctor gave me and when Liberty confirmed we were indeed pregnant there was only one place I knew I needed to be. “What are you doing Livie?” “Is he here?” “Is who here?” I see that he is not looking at me. “I heard him, Bradley but I also saw him return before I lost consciousness. Where is Christian I need to tell him something.” “About the pup? He already knows. The doctor told us by accident when he gave us the update.” His tone is both caring and hard.
Chapter Sixty One(Olivia POV)It has been a long journey but I am glad to officially be home. I am approaching the boundary line at the long dirt road when I hear a growl coming from nearby.“Growl all you want I told you she is not here like I have told you everyday for a week.”“Talk to me like that again and I will shred you to pieces.”I pick up my pace and that is when Christian’s back comes into view. He is standing in front of his truck with his fist clench. “Harm Castor and I will end you and my alliance with your pack in a heartbeat.”He turns around with a look of disbelief, “End me?”
Chapter Sixty-Two (Castor POV) We move toward our destination in quiet as I let my mind wander to Jensen trying to not think of what is about to come. Jensen was my first mate, my first love, my first chance of happiness. Jensen had dated women all through high school. I turned 18 years old just two months before him and was sure he was going to reject me because I was a male. It was what I thought was going to be the hardest 2 months of my life but I was sure wrong. Jensen was a strong warrior and on the high school football team and dated cheerleaders. Then on graduation day he looked amazing with his sandy blond hair pulled back in a bun with his sides shaved, and as he walked to his seat after getting his diploma his brown eyes turned to mine as he sniffed the air. There wa
Chapter Sixty Three(Christian POV)We have moved from outside to my living room in the packhouse. Castor and Franklin sitting down close to each other. My parents sat down on the chairs leaving only the loveseat for myself and Olivia.“What changed your mind?” Castor asks. “Not that I’m not happy I am just curious.”“Honestly several things but mostly it was Christian.”“Christian?” The question leaves Olivia’s mouth in just over a whisper.“Yea, I honestly did not realize I would be mated to a male. I mean I dated females in high school.” A low growl escapes Castor. “Calm do
