Chapter 266: I Can Be More Than a Monster For You {1}
"Talk to
baby, what’s wrong?" Dace’s nervous voice got to
now and I slowly let my gaze drift to his, but I didn’t et his eyes. He held
super close now with no space left between us and I settled by placing my palms on his chest.
"Emma?"
Doesn’t he realize it too? Or werelions don’t use it? Oh god, I’m so confused but I knew I needed to tell him either way, I was bothered by it and one thing I knew about Dace was he didn’t like anything bugging
he will keep asking until he finds out. I really wish Emilia hinted sothing about this.
"Em-"
"W-We" I began as I cut him off eting his eyes, but I was unable to continue but forced myself to speak nevertheless. "W-We didn’t do it safe" I mumbled under my breath and I was grateful he had enhanced hearing because I wasn’t so sure I could repeat that twice I flushed instantly when his expression changed.
Like a realization struck him hard, he shut his eyes and took a deep breath. "Fuck!" that was what escaped him next. "Im so sorry baby I got carried away"
So they do use protection then? And here I thought it might be a thing.
"Believe
honestly it slipped my mind, I couldn’t possibly think at that mont"
"I-I understand too... I thought maybe werelions like it without it so I was hesitant to ask and-"
"You’re the first"
"Hmm?"
He pulled
close and my bare breast rubbed against his hard-ton chest, it felt so fucking good that I almost forget about our talk.
"You’re the first person that I have done..." he clenched his teeth and for a slight mont, I saw regret and pain. "...it raw with"
"Oh" I just made a sound and for so fucking reason I couldn’t help the smirk that crossed my face. That was interesting to hear.
"You are not upset?"
"About what?" I blinked.
"I just brought up sothing I shouldn’t have... I know how you feel whenever I-"
I kissed him before he could say anything. It DID bother
when I found out he had been with other girls but that was long forgotten. Besides I’m still beaming at the fact that I was the first he has done sothing like this with, it gave
so sort of pride and satisfaction.
"Emma"
I smiled at him and he sighed, shaking his head with a smirk on his lips. He placed his hand on the back of my neck.
"Are you ovulating right now?"
I blushed, I haven’t ever checked I an never... because I never gave any thought to it not until now.
"I-I don’t think so" I admitted. "B-But I will try to keep track of it"
"I shouldn’t have gotten carried away, I will be careful next ti,"
"Okay" I mused and he leaned for another kiss and I welcod it.
"Just let
know if anything, okay? I will take full responsibility"
Okay now those words of his got my heart hamring in my chest, and the look he gave
was drop-dead serious and I blushed further.
"W-We should get cleaned up"
"What are you thinking right now?" he asked.
"N-Nothing" I was hoping I would sound convincing but I wasn’t and I sighed in defeat. "It’s just what you said that got
thinking if..."
"If?"
"I-I would end up pregnant, I know that’s thinking overboard but I can’t help it, I an, pregnant right now? I’m only 17 and in high school and I don’t think..." I was talking so fast that I needed to catch my breath.
"I understand," he said softly. "It’s my fault"
"N-No it-"
"And I an when I say I will take responsibility if anything happens, you have " he stroked my cheek with his thumb and I sighed in relief.
None of us are at fault here, we were just caught up in the mont, hearing Dace say those words with such sincerity gave
ease. There was no point overthinking it right now...
I gasped when he carried
suddenly, swiftly and I was in his arms now. I was in silence as he led us to the shiny brook, he stepped into it and settled
down, I was half expecting it would be cold but it was surprisingly warm, maybe because of Dace’s temperature?
"Good?" he asked
with a smile.
And I nodded and backed him sinking more into the water, he held
from behind and buried his face in my neck.
"Do you know what this place is?" I asked, finally taking my eyes back to this imaginary place focused on its own season like it wasn’t a part of this world.
"I don’t know, I just found you here"
I turned to him at his words. "I thought I found you here"
He shook his head. "I followed your scent to this place"
"You an I found this place?" I said stunned, turning my head back to it. "What is this place?"
"I have heard stories but I’m not sure... rember when I told you Juneau was the center of all supernatural because of the two interdependent races?"
I nodded.
"They say there is a place about the center of that beacon, maybe its this place"
It has to be because there was no other way to explain it, it read magic all through it, but it was still unreal in my eyes.
"I wonder why others haven’t found it but I did"
"Emma" he turned him so that I faced him fully he had a serious expression on his face now that got my heart leaping for so unknown reason.
"What happened? What made you use your magic to the point you almost killed yourself?"
I leveled my gaze at his question. "I couldn’t help it, there were too many. Grayson, Owen, and Sarah would have died, I couldn’t just stand still and let that happen, that helpless feeling"
"I know"
I drifted my eyes to his, I couldn’t read his expression now and it got
anxious, I knew definitely what happened to
didn’t sit well with him, after what he went through because of it.
"But I’m here now," I assured him. "And I’m sorry... what my aunt did was..."
??гeewe??n??vel
"If I wasn’t distracted by the Venatores then I would have marched to that covenstead in my rogue form and killed anyone in sight until I got to you"
"Y-You don’t an that" I mumbled and he leaned to
not breaking gaze, a chill ran through
when I saw his eyes, they weren’t highlighted or anything but only just showed the gravity of his words, how can I doubt it now?
"Do I look like I’m joking?" he mused.
And I gulped.
"I still rember how I felt in my rogue form, still" he mouths. "The mont I sensed your state Emma, nothing was gonna stop , I should thank the Venatores for stepping in," he said so freely but my heart was pounding.
"You’re not a monster," I whispered to him.
His hand trailed my spine and I shivered and it moved all the way to my left breast where his mark was.
"Maybe, but when it cos to you or anything that threatens your safety I can be more than a monster" he put pressure on the mark and I bit my bottom lip avoiding a moan.
"Which is why you have to promise
Emma, no more magic"
I narrowed my eyes at his words. "It’s my nature"
"A nature that almost got you killed"
"What if I can’t stop it? I’m a half-witch and I can’t change that"
"It was so much easier when you didn’t know that" he snapped.
And I backed away from his touch. "I didn’t choose any of this, but now that it chose
I have to accept it, I thought you understood that"
"I do," he said sternly. "But nothing like that will ever happen, the thought of losing you and not being able to be by your side... the thought of never seeing you again only to be shut out by others, that broke , Emma, I can’t live without you. Never" with each word, he walked back to
and I remained still where I was.
"I will never be apart from you, never" the last words ca off as a growl and I saw the highlight of his eyes, but not the usual gold but the darker one just like when he was in his rogue, and I would lie that it didn’t get
scared.
I didn’t say anything... I only just gaze upon his dark golden orbs, absorbing all the words he just said to
without a hint of amusent. I understand his feelings perfectly well, I understand his pain because I felt it too when I was in a coma, I felt everything...
What can I possibly say in this situation?
