His Gifted Luna Chapter 11 - Eleven

Gemma’s POV

It has been two months since Conner and I had started dating. Being with him was magical. He was so funny and sweet. I loved him. If course I didn’t tell him that but I did. Even though Winter was helping to speak for , I couldn’t help but feel jealous every ti they talked and laughed with each other. I was missing out and it was because I couldn’t just open my mouth.

I did it once before to reject Chase but... I can’t do it now. Trust I tried. Every ti I opened my mouth to speak I would feel pain. Because every ti I did at my old pack I would be beaten. I sighed. Today was a slow day at the diner. No people ans no need to cook which ans boredom. That’s why I’m arranging the straws. The door opened and I was hit with the sll of my mate. I looked over to him and smiled. I went to hug him and gave him a kiss on the cheek. He and I hadn’t kissed on the lips yet. It’s because of . The opportunity cos and I just freeze. He says it’s okay but I know it’s not.

"Hey babe. How are you?" He asked. I have him two thumbs up. He smiled and then it dropped. I frowned. He looked worried. Troubled even. I cocked my head to the side as if to ask ’what is it?’. He cleared his throat.

"Iwaswonderingifyouwouldliketolivewith." He said in a rush. I didn’t catch what he said so I motioned with my hand for him to talk slower.

"I was wondering if you would like to live with ." He said and I froze. He wanted to move in with him? That was a big step. Like huge. But I loved him and was ready. I think. I smiled nervously and nodded. He sighed with relief a huge smile on his face.

"Okay I will pick you up when your shift is over and.... I’ll send so people to get your stuff from your apartnt. Bye babe." He said disappearing out the door in a hurry. I shook my head with a smile on my face. He was going to be the death of one day.

It was the end of my shift. Conner was coming to pick up. I was nervous. What if the pack didn’t like ? Or hated because I was mute. I sighed. No point in worrying if I was gonna find out soon. I saw the lights of Conner’s bike as he parked. I got out, locking up and joining him. He got off the bike to hug . Dipping his face in my neck and inhaling my scent. I pulled back looking at him. His dark eyes that bore into my soul and made my days worthwhile. I loved him. I knew it but I don’t think he did. Then I shocked is both smashing my lips into his.

He was still for a second before responding, lting into the kiss. I kissed him pouring the love I couldn’t say into it. I kissed him like he was the oxygen I needed to stay alive. I kissed him like he was the line holding to this earth. Because he was. He was the reason I got up every morning to live a life that had been so cruel to I thought I needed to die. He was the reason I healed all my scars. To look better. He was the reason I started to trust more.

I licked his bottom lip asking for entrance then our tongues battled. He let win. Smiling I continued kissing him. Sparks flew everywhere. The diner could blow up right now and I wouldn’t give a fuck because I was finally kissing my mate.

We broke apart for air. Staring at each other our foreheads touching. Conner tucked a stray hair behind my ear and I leaned onto his arm. This was all I needed. My mate and I together.

"We should go." He said.

I nodded pecking his lips. We drove into the forest coming at a stop at a house. It looked nice and modern.I gaped at the house. This was my mate’s place. It looked wonderful. I got off the bike and stood in front of the house. Conner ca and stood next to .

"Do you like it? " He asked I nodded and he smiled.

"Co on let’s go inside." He said dragging to the house.

I walked around the house. There were five empty rooms, one guest room and a theater room. I found Conner’s office, the kitchen that I fell in love with. The house was spacious and had a lot of large windows. I followed Conner’s scent to a room that I guessed was now our room. It’s so weird thinking that. Our room. He was seated on the bed on his laptop doing so work so I decided to explore the room too.

The bathroom was so huge. I an I once stayed in a motel on my way here that was smaller than this bathroom. I eyed the bathtub. I was so gonna take a soak in that later. I looked at the shower and sniffed my pits. I needed one of those. I walked into the walk-in closet to find it full. Half with my clothes. I went to the bathroom, stripped and took a shower. The warm water felt like heaven on my skin. I sighed. I stayed there for a few minutes before walking over to the mirror. I wrapped a towel around myself, making faces in the mirror. I stood there just ssing around before I noticed I didn’t bring clothes with . Typical.

I opened the door slightly looking at Conner. He was facing but was focused on the screen. I looked at the closet estimating the distance. I could make it. I stepped back into the bathroom making sure my towel was secure.

I took a running stance and peeped into the room.

One.

Two.

Three!

I sprinted to the closet, my steps as silent as a grave. I managed to enter but listening to the booming laughter of my mate. I pouted in the closet. He deserved a punishnt. Hmmm. I got out a soft tank top with spaghetti straps and a pair of panties. We’ll see whose laughing now. When I walked out into the room, Conner was taking a shower so I went downstairs for a midnight snack. I opened the fridge looking for anything to eat. I saw ice cream only to find out it was chocolate. I made a gagging face putting it back in and decided to just eat an apple.

Walking back to the room, Conner’s back was to . He was only in underwear. I gulped watching his muscles flex as he got into bed. This was going to be interesting. I went to the bed with fake bravado and climbed in. I faced Conner looking into his dark eyes.

"What are you wearing?" He asked.

I just smirked. Shrugging I turned away from him. He grabbed , pulling to him and climbed on top of .

He looked in my eyes before kissing . The kiss was filled with passion and need. I loved it. We broke apart, staring at each other before Conner settled down, pulling my back to his chest. He placed a kiss on my forehead and I sighed.

"Goodnight Gemma." Was the last thing I heard before drifting off into a PG16 dream about Conner.
