Все главы Mated To The Alpha: Fated To The Lycan King : Глава 151 - Глава 160

Kairen's POVRoman had been a little reluctant to come for the dinner, but I managed to convince him. He couldn't hide how much he had missed Dad too.Dad picked a restaurant close to the campus so that we wouldn't have issues getting back to school that evening. We ordered some food and started to eat in silence. I didn't feel the need to break it, but it felt a little awkward that no one was saying anything.The little fairy lights in the restaurant lit up the restaurant’s interior in a warm, dreamlike glow. It lit up Dad's face and hair, making it obvious just how long it had been since we last spent time together.The lines of his face had become harsher and older—but not because of time, but because of what he had been going through for the past 18 years. Mom's disappearance took so much from him, and I had grown to understand that the kind of pain he felt was one that nothing could take away. The main thing keeping him together was us. He had to be strong for his family, but in

Kairen's POVThe feel of his lips against mine felt like the very thing I needed to complete my life. All felt right in the world, with his hands on my body and our bodies joined together underneath the stars.I didn't record how long we were like that, with me seated on his thighs, and his hands on my waist, hot even through the material of my dress.We finally came apart to breathe, watching each other. “Kairen . . .” He whispered, running a finger over my cheek. His whole body was like a key, opening every part of me and making me vulnerable. I wanted to say something to him too, even if it was just his name, but my lips felt so hot from his kiss, that moving them felt like a crime. The door of the building opened again, and this time it was Roman who stepped out. “Kairen!” He called, facing away from us, and giving me ample time to hop off Todd's body. He turned in our direction, ready to call my name again, when he noticed me standing awkwardly by the bench.Todd also stood u

Kairen's POVWeekend came slower than a snail. Maybe it was because I anticipated it so much though, who knows? As planned, Todd came to pick me up by seven in the evening. But I didn't expect him to come on a bike.I stared at it for a long while, unable to form a coherent sentence, but not for the reasons that might have seemed obvious. Firstly, it was a black beauty. Secondly, I got excited just thinking about sitting down on it and holding on to Todd for dear life as we zoomed across the streets, with the wind whipping my hair around my face.“Oh wow,” I finally managed to say. “You have a bike?” My mind kept whirling with all the ideas planted in it by the romance novels I fancied so much.I reached out and ran my hand over the shiny leather seat. It still smelled faintly new, but Todd's scent clung heavily to it. I didn't even know that by then I had gotten so attached to him that I could already identify his scent, but there was nothing strange about that, since I had already

Kairen's POVNot long after I entered my room, someone knocked on the door.“Come in,” I called out, leaving the zip of my dress which I had been pulling down before. I quickly glanced at the time on my phone, wondering who could be knocking so late, but I already had a feeling about who it could have been.The door opened and Grace stepped inside. She wore a green tank top and black tights—an outfit that I'd gotten used to seeing her in already. “Are you always on your way to jog or something?” I asked, a little relieved to see her.She looked down at her outfit before replying. “Oh, I just like to workout right before bed sometimes.”So that must have been what those heavy breathing sounds were, I thought with a little pang of guilt. I had almost been having other thoughts. “Do you need something?”“No, actually, I just couldn't help but overhear you and your boyfriend talking outside,” she said with a mischievous grin. “You'd better be careful though, news moves fast around here,

Kairen's POVDays after our real relationship kickstarter, Todd invited me over to his home so that I could meet his father. I was initially worried because while Todd was aware of my werewolf blood, his father wasn't, and I didn't know how we could even approach such a topic with him. But Todd assured that his father had never mentioned any sort of aversion towards werewolves. To be safe though, I suggested that we shouldn't tell him just yet, until he at least got to know who I was.I stepped into his house, wearing my best formal wear that made me look a little older than I was. I blew out a breath, slightly nervous for what was to come. Meeting his father was a huge step in our relationship, and although it was just a simple meeting with nothing too serious attached, it didn't help me feel any less nervous.Todd's home was beautiful, but had a quiet, empty feel to it. Like it was missing the touch of a person—a mother. It felt too clinical, too organized, for people to be actually
