All Chapters of A Faked Mate : Chapter 91 - Chapter 98

The day had been hectic. Our new home had been a flurry of people coming and going as they helped with various tasks that needed doing within the Alpha suite to make it the home that Presley and I desired. So many people in assisting to perfect the final details of what would be mine and Presley’s home. Food being delivered… final repairs being done… My parents coming back and forth to check if we had everything we could possibly need. I felt like I was in a whirlwind. By the time Presley closed the door for the last time, I think it was safe to say we were both ready to drop…My head had been as hectic as our home today. Thoughts of the future. The things I had learned from the past, and what they meant for me. And, of course, Presley. Where we were, and the things that had passed between us, and the things that I so desperately wanted to come. I had never for a moment in our time in college expected this, but now we were here, I could not imagine anything else... anything better...

Relief had been lifted from me like a pressing weight crushing down on my chest on seeing that Presley had accepted that maybe we needed to work on things. I clung to the idea we could work on it. Work on us. I knew that somewhere there was a version of us that worked, because in my mind there was a reason this girl had returned home with me. The way we had connected. The way she connected with my wolf... the more I thought about it, the more it made sense to me. She was brought to me for a reason.But that was the last of my thoughts right now. I was lost within her chocolaty brown eyes as they gazed up at me. I watched as she swallowed heavily at my question. She knew what I meant. I had waited until we were here alone to take things further than we already had, and now her eyes seemed to be searching mine for confirmation this was what I wanted…Did she truly doubt that I would want anything else? She had seen the way my body responded to her touch. She had f

Presley’s answer to the fear that had been bouncing through my mind was so nonchalant. So easy. So free. Like it was almost a natural and expected reply. But this was something that terrified me. Yes, we had spoken of being chosen mates at some point in the future. But in my mind, this was almost certainly when we had both been given the time to decide it was the right thing. Being here together, dealing with everything that was happening was a lot. We needed to work together first. Presley deserved the time to consider whether she was ready to commit to such a thing...‘Do you?’ Blade interrupted my panicked thoughts.‘What?’ I asked. My head felt like it was spinning, and I had no clue this was something we should be doing. Yet Presley was laid there looking up at me expectantly. Was this her way of saying she had decided she wanted it? That she did not need the time to consider I had expected her to?‘Are you a fool?’ Blade questioned. ‘I asked, do you, as in, do you need to work t

Presley was standing beside me. Her naked body so perfect and still totally exposed to me as she looked at me with pain within those chocolaty brown eyes of hers. Pain and confusion. “Zee?” She repeated, while Blade snarled within my mind, not liking how I had reacted. My heart felt like it was beating so fast it could pound so hard it would beat right on out of my chest and out of the room…Presley’s hand rested upon my arm, making me flinch at the contact. Her touch was doing things to me, making it so much harder to resist doing the things I wanted to do. Things I wasn't sure were right just yet... “Zee.” Her tone was so much more insistent this time. “What happened?”I shook my head, not sure how to explain. Blade snarled once more. He knew what had happened, and I had a feeling he would know how to explain it too. But, he had wanted it to happen, and he did not want me to stop things the way I had. The moment had been everything I had hoped it could be. The girl was like a goddes
