All Chapters of Not my spec: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

Lila’s pov I knew I had fucked up. Looking at him that way, I couldn’t help but think how I looked stupid. From my stupid imaginations, staring like my life depended on it. I had always been far from staring too much. But I outdid myself just moments ago. But I couldn’t stop thinking, what was that feeling boiling in my blood when I was around him. A feeling of something knotted in me that I couldn’t keep away, drawing me to him like a magnetic pull. What is that feeling of always wanting to understand his kind of person whenever I was close him, try to make him feel comfort by my side. I looked and turned my head away trying to keep my mind distracted but that wouldn’t work, it kept going back to the moments before he left. No, this isn’t me….I am hard, nothing ever makes me this worked up if it’s not about me. But my mind shut back at him again. Aiden, but then I thought about the sadness I saw in his eyes, why didn’t he want to talk about his past? Was it so bad that he couldn

Lila’s pov In the middle of the night, I found myself in a car with two people. I couldn't make out their blurred faces, but from their voices, I knew they were a man and a woman. We were talking, laughing, and singing along to the music on the radio. I joined along. I was having the time of my life until the car pulled over in a lonely, pitch black area. "Please step out..." the man said, his voice flat and commanding. I chuckled trying to catch the joke. “It’s not funny…” But he hit the steering wheel in anger. Startled, I held onto my seatbelt. “Now!!” He yelled at me looking back at me from the corner of his eyes. I froze in my seat, staring out the window into the darkness. "But... it's dark," I stammered, looking back at them. "What are we doing here?" The happy mood dissolved, replaced by a suffocating, heavy sadness. The air went still, and neither of them answered my questions. "Why should I get out? What's going on?!!” I pleaded, my voice rising in panic as I lo

Lila’s pov He leaned closer to my face, reaching down to gently take both of my hands in his. "I'll do it with you..." he whispered, his warm breath brushing against my skin, carrying words I never expected to hear. I looked at him surprised, taken back by what he said. “What do you mean….?” Asking him because I was not sure of what I heard. "Lila..." He ran his thumb soothingly over the back of my hand. "I'm going with you." What...? The single word screamed through my mind. Was this really the same Aiden I knew? I had always sensed that he had a good heart underneath his sharp edges, but I never imagined he would go this far for me. "No..." I pulled my hands out of his grip and turned my back on him. "It's far too dangerous. I can't let you risk yourself for this." "Lila, you can't do this on your own," he insisted, stepping closer. "Please... let me be by your side." I took a frightening steps backward, my pulse racing. "You were never supposed to find out about this in t

Aiden’s pov I thought it wouldn’t be something simple or minimal but I didn’t know it would be bigger than I had imagined. There was no way I could talk her out of it. She already made up her mind. The cave looked even more scarier. From the writings to the earthquake and something even creepier happened. The moment Lila said she was ready. The lights of the cave suddenly turned on. And there was a very big circle in the center of the cave, it was white with a strange writing before it. But that wasn’t all, there was a huge stone hanging over it. I looked all over in awe, this shouldn’t be happening, it only did when there was a presence of an alpha and not just one, the lights are powered from the source of the elders of our fallen heroes and the elders. To trigger the power a strong presence must be there and at least two alphas and other wolves to make it happen. But in this case, it was just me and Lila, I wasn’t strong enough to trigger the light yet so who could have done

Lila’s pov It was Aiden. I didn’t know if I should be glad or mad. “I’m sorry,” he blurted out, holding up a cracked picture frame. “I didn’t mean to knock it down. I didn’t see it there in the dark. I’ll fix it tomorrow, I promise.” The words tumbled out of him in a rush. “Aiden…” I said softly. “It’s fine. Really.” A dull ache throbbed in my chest, but I couldn't bear the thought of driving him away. I wanted him here, right by my side. God, what is wrong with me? “No, it’s not fine. I’ll replace the glass,” he insisted, pulling the frame back slightly. “I’m serious, Aiden.” I stepped forward, taking the frame from his hands, and set it gently on my nightstand. When I turned back around, his blunt expression had softened into something intense and serious. His eyes were locked onto my face. What is he looking at? He closed the distance between us with slow steps. I didn't back away this time, I stayed frozen, watching him until he was so close I had to lean my head back t
