Awen, I'm gonna miss them being in the same space.
CRYSTAL“I can't believe you did that!” I scream at the top of my voice when I stand before Simone in bed who is pouting and folding her arms with her face turned away and her eyes closed.“ Do you know how worried I was? I thought something bad had happened!”She groans and rolls her eyes, “If I hadn't composed that text, would you be here?”“ I wouldn't be half as worried as I am right now like a freaking mad woman, at least! Simone, how could you!” “And how could you disappear just like that without a fucking trace!” She snaps, glaring at me but with tears in her eyes. Her pregnancy hormones are either kicking in or she's just really emotional about my disappearance.“I was worried! What if you've been kidnapped-”Well she's not far off in that. I was.“What if I never got to see you again? God! I was scared, okay?”“Fine, just don't yell so nothing happens to you or the baby,” I look around her room and feel quite odd being here. How long has it been since I was out in the real wo
SILVER‘Something came up.’I'm tempted to squeeze the sheet of paper she left by. At least she thought it was nice enough to drop a message but she didn't say where.“Hmm,” she has a beautiful handwriting too. It's small and neat like her pussy. For that reason, I don't tear the note even in my rage, instead, I fold it neatly and keep it in my drawer.The phone is missing. No doubt, she took it.I pace my study room with a glass of whiskey in my hand as I try to make sense of it.Before I stepped out, my mate was in this room acting as though she had finally come to terms with our agreement. I displayed an act of trust by leaving the doors unlocked and she what? Stepped all over it and tell me it was an emergency.Did she got to him, perhaps? “Hmm, no,” she couldn't have seen any of his missed calls. I deleted all of them and even blocked his number. He can't contact her ever again.The only one's that's been calling her is her mother, Ruby and Simone. Now she won't go to the first t
CRYSTAL I space out on the conversation and concentrate on the hand directly over my thigh, stroking and squeezing when he can.It feels unreal to have him here. Just yesterday he was talking about hanging out with my friends and here it is, playing out before my eyes. I don't know how to feel but it doesn't feel bad.Simone is laughing at his jokes and Mike has a smile on his face. He feels more pleased that he finally got to see a Lycan. There's no awkwardness in our meeting right now and no one feels put off or put down by anyone.He might be a king but he sure knows how to hold a good conversation.He withdraws his hand to eat and I'm joining in the conversation. It suddenly feels like the picture perfect hangout I've always wanted.There's Simone and Mike, then there's me and the man I… it's supposed to be my husband but ah, fuck it! We're already married in our souls, right? Just for tonight, I'll allow the thought in my head.We talked a lot about random things and I ended up
JOHN“Shit,” I lock my phone screen and squeeze the phone in my hands. It's been a day and I'm yet to receive any news from Crystal’s family.I don't have her mother's number or Ruby's and neither of them has showed up yet to look for Crystal.How do I know? I've been leaving home every day and in place of work to fool Tatiana, I drive down to my old home and just stay there… waiting.“Man, what the fuck am I doing?” I wonder as I pace the damn house that I ended up cleaning all by myself.I cleaned the floors, made the bed, cleaned the couch– every damn thing was dusty in this Godforsaken place!It's her job to fucking clean, where the heck did she go?Only dick can tie a woman down, right? She's probably with that man right now, sucking his dick and creaming all over the damn thing.Fuck her! She's always yapping about how lonely she is. I guess that's why she got rid of me so fast, threw divorce papers in my face because now she could afford to send me away. She found someone better
JOHN“ Why did you get back so late?” Tatiana asks as she opens the door for me. “ I was already half asleep. Why did they make you work so late? Can't you complain to your boss? You have a family as much as he does too. I'm sure he didn't stay so late in the office. Should I make you lunch before leaving every day now?”Her words don't bother me as I space out, my thoughts still playing the scene I saw right before my very eyes.She kissed him so passionately in the middle of the streets, out in the open.She acted like they were… in love. What the actual fuck?I still don't know how to react. I grip my phone in my hands with my eyes on the floor. The evidence sitting in the palm of my hands surge a strange kind of feeling through my veins.All her tears over the phone and her actions had been for nothing. Fucking emotional blackmail she was trying to pull over me.“John,” Tatiana snaps her fingers in from of my face and I blink out of it, lifting my eyes to her.She has a frown on he
SILVERThat bloody ring on her finger still sits there mocking me like it has a right to be on her hand. I wish she'd take it off already and just forget about the imbecile.Our night was going just fine before I caught sight of it. The way her eyes stared at me– I chuckle just thinking about it again.The light in her eyes is no joke. I can almost say that Crystal has already sold her heart to me and I've bought every piece except the last one that holds dear to that– that– ring.My thoughts are racing and I've never wanted to snatch someone's fingers as much as I wish to snatch hers. She can be rest assured that it's safe with me, no matter what.I've given her a choice and somehow I'm excited to see what she’d make of it. Half of me expects her to run here by morning but I know too well that I'd have to go drag her from her hole… and bury myself in her hole.“Hello…?” Ruby's voice comes through the phone and I suddenly remembered I had dialled her number.“ Ruby, it's Silver,” I pre
SILVERCrystal's skin is hot to touch and more tears are leaking from her eyes as she looks up at me expectantly.I have so many questions; what is she doing here? How did she get here so early in the morning? But none of them leave my lips right now as I'm more invested in the fact that she's here.She came to me first. Whatever problems she might be having, she thought of my first.I cup her face and pull her into a kiss which she doesn't resist. I almost melt when my lips touch her warm ones and she trembled, gasping for air before I kiss her passionately.Her grip on my waist tightens as she presses herself closer like she could disappear into me and never come out. Trust me, I want that too. I want her for my eyes only; her smile, her laugh, I want to safeguard this woman inside myself where I know it's safe.She hooks her hands under my arms, our tongue in a fit and tango in our mouths as we kiss. Every sound she makes strokes our passion as my hands are in her soft and wet hair
CRYSTAL **Earlier that morning…**There was a loud noise from downstairs and it jerked me up from bed with my heart racing in fear. Instinctively, I rolled to the other side of the bed and put my knees on the floor to hide.My night vision was activated and my breathing suddenly went so low, I didn't know how my body remembered all my training but here I was acting like a damn assassin.I scanned the floor and when I didn't see any legs or smell anything funny in the air, I got to my feet. Whoever broke into my house was downstairs and I had just a few minutes to get out of here.What did they come to steal? No use thinking about that now as I grab a shirt from my closet and throw in a pair of pants.I reach for my lamp as a weapon but my wolf growls at me in mockery and I feel my claws extend.R-Right.I can suddenly hear Silver's voice in my head, warning me to always lean into my wolf and I back away from the lamp and look towards the door.Rely on something I don't even trust not
