Semua Bab His Forbidden Human Mate: Bab 21 - Bab 30

*Grayson*My attention drifted to Keera. Again.We were trying to go over the plans for today but I kept getting distracted by different thoughts of her. The security squad was going to arrive today. We had to get them settled and then Ryan and I had a few tasks we had to get done before we conducted the ritual tomorrow. Like getting enough wood for the bonfire, for one. We were all in the conference room and by all I meant the council and Keera's team. Conall and Ralph were talking about a few places in the forest where we could easily find all the wood we needed.As pack lead hunter and lead warrior, no one knew the forest better than them and so everyone was paying attention. Or at least everyone except me. And Keera. But mostly me. I stared deep into her brown eyes, the knowledge of what happened last night screaming in the silence between us. I run a finger along the edges of the table, recalling her taste, like sweet nectar. I'd never thought I'd ever be so intoxicated by a fema

*Grayson*She hadn't noticed me at first.I'd watched her for more than a few minutes before she'd realized I'd been standing there. I watched the way her hair seemed to float behind her, watched the swell of her breasts move in and out of the water with her attempt to stay afloat. Contrary to whatever was going on in her head, if the look she was giving me was any indication, I hadn't wanted to be anywhere around her either. I definitely had not sought her out. The lake was something only I knew of. Aside from the fact that it was surrounded by tall trees, making it difficult to be spotted, none of the pack members were allowed to step this far away from the pack.It wasn't part of our territory. It was close enough that the pack warriors might detect a sound if it was loud enough but it still wasn't part. And this tiny human who had sworn to drive me insane had foolishly come here. And had the mind to only be in her tiny underwear. If anything had happened to her, Trevor would neve

*Grayson*Well, that was unexpected.I'd anticipated a lot of things happening during the ritual but seeing Ginny and Keera hugging so warmly had definitely not been on the list of things I'd anticipated. And I could say the same for those who knew about their fall out, especially the council members. Every one of them looked as stunned as I felt. I wondered if Keera was just trying to be kind for old times' sake or if they had finally settled their differences. I'd seen them hugging right after Ginny had finished with the rites for Sam, her face red as she tried her hardest to stop herself from sobbing her eyes out.I was happy for them.Especially since I knew I'd played a major role. Which had me wondering if Keera and I were ever going to confront what had happened in the past. I was a little surprised we'd both managed to stay off the topic for so long. The small tug on my shirt drew me out of my thoughts. I turned to find Nyx smiling widely at me. I'd always suspected she secret

*Grayson*Hell no. "Forget it," I said flatly, rising to my feet. I moved towards the side of the table so I could leave the room but she immediately jumped to her feet to stop me from walking out. I paused, her raised hands just a hair's width away from making contact with my chest. I dropped my gaze down to her hands and then back up to meet her eyes. She tentatively lowered it, taking a step back to put some distance between us.The air crackled.Her eyebrows lifted. "Just hear me out," She said calmly. "Please." I laced my arms across my chest, spreading my legs apart and signaling that she could go on. She mumurred her thanks and pushed her hair behind her ears, taking a deep breath. At least she didn't seem all that surprised by my reaction. It was a good thing she had known better than to think I would easily agree with her suggestion. Aside from the fact that it was going to cost a whole lot of money getting the cameras, there was no way I would ever be comfortable having he

*Grayson*"It's Keera," Ryan mouthed.We'd been having a discussion when her knock had sounded on the door. Whatever had brought her had to be important. She'd been avoiding me since our kiss at the lake. "Let her in," I said quietly. Ryan stepped aside, pulling the door with him so she could walk in. Her eyes met mine, steady and unflinching as she took further steps into the room. She was wearing black jeans and black boots together with a white turtleneck."We need to talk," She said firmly, folding her arms. Ryan wiggled his eyebrow from behind her and she must have felt it because she turned and shot him a dry look. He raised his hands apologetically, giving her a small salute before exiting the room. I watched her draw in a all breath before meeting my eyes and walking even closer. I gestured for her to take a seat but she shook her head, refusing. "It's been days now since you said you were going to get back to me about the cameras and I haven't heard a single word from you abo
