I ran towards the window and looked around, but I was unable to see any trace of a person there. Soone opened the door, and I ignored it as Gramma’s scent invaded my nose as soon as she entered my room.
"You should not leave your weapons anywhere when you clearly know that without these, your strength will be almost nil" I looked at her and found her placing my knife and gun on the desk. "What are you looking at?"
"I heard soone’s voice, but when I turned, there was no one", I explained to her, and she huffed.
"Your bond is new. It is possible that you heard few things through your mate bond."
"But I am hundred percent sure that person was talking with " I again looked down from the window towards the woods... {there are not even footsteps} ... Gramma ca beside and took my uninjured hand in hers and patted it softly.
"What’s wrong, munchkin? You have been acting weird since you ca back" as soon as she said that, my mind again went to the kiss that I shared with Ryan minutes ago... {then why in this hell is this sensation not ending? Why can I still feel him close to ?} ... "Tell , cupcake, what happened?" She warmly placed her hand on my cheek, and I couldn’t help but again feel like a little girl who used to share everything with her. I leaned on her touch, and she gave a warm smile.
"I am scared, Gramma. I accepted him, but I still have many doubts. There is nothing wrong with Ryan. He will not do anything willingly to hurt , but..." I stopped and took a shaken breath while she waited for to continue, "but I don’t know if I can handle everything. We both know that the werewolf world will not accept our bond this easily. Every wolf will question us, every pack will question us, the council will surely interfere in this matter, and God... I don’t even believe in the moon goddess. Why will she ever give the crown of Luna queen?" I whined and hugged her... {she should have been a little taller} she chuckled and encircled her arms around .
"It’s normal to panic. Everyone panics whenever they let anyone co into their lives. There is nothing to worry about ’’ she tried to soothe ... {It is not that simple, but...}
"There is everything to worry about" I let her go and closed my eyes... {Why am I not able to forget that mont?} ... I grabbed my hair and pulled them... {Who would have thought that he could make lose my mind with just a kiss?}...
"What?" she shouted in shock, and I realised in horror that I had said the last sentence out loud, which made more nervous.... {great choice of words in front of a great person. Best of luck, Aadhya.}
"Please don’t talk about this, Gramma. I am already losing my mind by thinking all that again and again, and my mind is not listening to ," I whined and again hugged her, and she patted my back softly.
"Fine, but just one question." I humd because she sounded serious. "He didn’t force you to kiss, did he?" As soon as she said this, I let her go and tried to read her expressions, and she was actually serious.
"I guess so", she raised her eyebrow. "I an, yeah, that was a surprise for too, but I didn’t push him away... or you can say that I was too shocked to react to anything" she is smiling now. "Don’t make this face, Gramma. I am unable to understand this weird feeling, and it is not going away, which is making more nervous" I went towards the bed, and before I jumped on it, I again rembered about my injuries, "and I am frustrated also... I should have been mad at him for hurting and not accepting or getting kissed by him" instead of explaining these stupid things to she started chuckling and looked at with that stupid smile.
"I can’t believe that you are calling that aweso feeling of ’love’ weird... you seriously are a weirdo," she teased , and I couldn’t help but smile at the na... {I don’t know how I can’t make myself not like anything that Gramma does or says} ...
"When you can’t force yourself to dislike a person... when you can’t help but keep thinking about that person when he is not around... when the monts that you shared with that person always bring a smile on your face and when the re thought of imagining that person with soone else make your blood boil" she stopped and cupped my cheeks "then never let that person go away from your life. No matter how bad the situation becos, never leave the hand of that person because... for him, you can do the unimaginable, and we, sweetheart," she kissed my forehead, "are lucky because we feel those emotions towards the person who is our mate and is made only for us by the moon goddess. We are made for him, and he is made for us" I wanted to contradict her. Why is she saying this to when she clearly knows that he is not the only mate I was gifted with, but her blind faith in the moon goddess is making question her thinking about the moon goddess... {she seems to have extre belief in the moon goddess}
"You still believe in the moon goddess after whatever she has done with you," I asked her, and she smiled.
"We can’t bla the moon goddess for every bad thing that happened in our lifeti. I know it is easy to bla her for the doing of every person around us, but still, it is wrong. If I am the one who burnt my sister and later suffered because of it, then it is not the moon goddess’s mistake. If Ethan rejected you, it has everything to do with Ethan and nothing to do with the moon goddess. I know you are not going to accept it, but you should feel thankful to her that you are blessed with another mate. Not many of the beings were able to get this blessing" I wanted to contradict her belief, but her words are actually making sense to . Sadness can be clearly seen on her face. I took her hand in mine, and she sat next to .
"You never told about grandpa. You miss him" She nodded and smiled at the ground.
"Yeah, I miss him. He is the man I wanted to spend my life with," her features hardened, "and I beca the one who had to kill him" this revelation made look at her in shock. She looked at with a serious expression. "I killed your grandpa because he was not a good man. He was an excellent mate and an adoring father, but except for this, there is no single goodness in him. He killed people on his master’s orders, whether innocent or not. He was a part of a major conspiracy to take over the werewolf world by his master. So, I killed him with my own hands" her petite body was shaking now, so I hugged her while I couldn’t understand what to say to her "life is not predictable, Aadhya. So, don’t spoil the ti that you can enjoy right now. I killed my mate, and he was not a good man, but the ti I have spent with him, and his unconditional love towards always made strong in every difficult situation. I love him till today, but still, I don’t have any remorse for killing him" I always considered myself a strong lady but hearing these words from her is clearly changing my definition of a strong lady.
"You do know that you are my role model, don’t you?" I asked her, and she chuckled.
"Yeah, just don’t go hunting your mate now. Ryan is a good guy," she said to , and I removed my hands from her. "Give him a chance" I rolled my eyes at her statent.
"As if I am not doing the exact thing. I accepted him. What do you want to do more than this?" I asked her, and she acted as if she was thinking.
"Maybe really try to invest your true emotions in this relationship. Don’t hide your emotions from him, shout at him if he hurts you, tell him if you liked the kiss, share your concerns with him without thinking anything negative, believe in him and let him place his belief in you, and more importantly love him without thinking of the future" I acted shocked.
"Who are you, and what have you done with my gramma?" I teased her, and she flipped her hair.
"I know I am too aweso to be true..." I rolled my eyes at her acting. "So, tell , how’s the kiss?’’ Here the creepy Gramma cos."
I am not telling you anything about it," I told her strictly, and she pouted like a kid.
"Oh, co on, I can give you so great kissing tips. I know that you don’t know, but I am a great kisser," I gagged on it.
"Eww... taking kissing tips from my gramma is the last thing that I ever wanted to do" she smirked at my comnt, and from her expressions, I knew that she had a befitting coback, but before she said anything, my mobile started ringing, and Ryan’s na flashed on it. My heart started beating fast only by thinking about it, and Gramma chuckled while shaking her head. I narrowed my eyes at her and answered the call.
"Hello"
"Hi"... he beca silent, and I could hear his heavy breathing from another side... {Why is this silence so noisy? Fine, I have already gone mad. I accept it} ... he cleared his throat.
"Few council mbers are coming to et you tomorrow" as soon as he said this, I couldn’t help but panic.
"How? Why? Tell them that I am not here, just tell them anything. I didn’t want to et anyone from the council" I couldn’t help but pace in the room while Gramma sat on the bed enjoying my panic walk.
"There is nothing to worry about, Chicky. I will be there with you." he tried to soothe .
"You don’t understand, Ryan. I can’t et them with a broken arm and a wound on my back. They will think of as a weakling. Tell them that I am allergic to people" I rambled whatever ca to my mind, and he started chuckling from another side... {what with these two and enjoying my panic?}
"Stop pacing" I stopped in my place, and Gramma raised her eyebrow while smirking, "Calm down and don’t panic. et them, and I will give you chocolate for every person that you will et."
"Are you seriously bribing the Luna queen with chocolates, Ryan?" I asked him in disbelief... {I can’t say that the offer is not alluring, though}
"Did it work?" he asked , and I couldn’t help but picture his smiling face. I took a deep breath to calm myself, and he waited for my response... {he knows more than I like}
"Two chocolates per person", I negotiated, and Gramma covered her mouth to stop laughing hard.
"That’s too much, Chicky. One chocolate per person, not more, not less... deal?" I pouted and whined, "Your puppy dog eyes are not going to work. We are on call and not video call. Deal?" he again asked, and I gave up.
"Fine, deal", I huffed.
"Good girl. Take care. I will co ho earlier," I humd and cut the call. Gramma started laughing at , and I glared at her. She got up from the bed and went towards the door.
"Bribing her with chocolates. He does know her very well," I heard her mumble before closing the door, and I can’t help but panic now... I tried to think of an excuse, but nothing ca to my mind... {I wanted my wardrobe to turn to the gateway of Narnia}...I groaned ... {it seed like I badly needed to put a closed sign on my brain}
