Stella snarled at me, and I took a defensive stance. No matter training or what, Stella will never leave the opportunity to kill me or injure me seriously... {I don't think I am also letting this opportunity go like that}
"Aadhya," suddenly Ethan came between us, looking directly at me. He is just wearing his shorts, and his perfectly sculpted n***d torso is on full display. He is dripping with sweat, and his ash blonde hairs are sticking to his forehead... {can a human eat a wolf alive?} ... I don't know where these thoughts came from, but I shook my head to remove these thoughts. I looked at him and found him smirking at me... {it seemed like he caught me staring at him} ... "in dad's office now," he said and looked at Stella's wolf, who was not looking happy. Ethan let a sexy chuckle out and walked towards Stella and hugged her tight while her fur made contact with his n***d form... {half naked...}
"Dad has assigned me an important work, baby girl, and I have to interrogate this weirdo for that... sorry for ruining your fun," he whispered in her ear. I can literally give anything to anyone who can explain to me how in this hell a human like me can hear his words from afar. I wanted to hear more, but their close proximity was breaking my heart, so I turned and walked inside the pack house towards Alpha Aiden's office. I knocked on the door and waited... {I hope that everything goes well}
"No one is inside" I heard Ethan's voice from behind me, so I gave him a side to enter the room. He looked at me with weird expressions and took a few deep breaths. After sniffing a few more times, a few creases appeared on his forehead, and he shook his head in irritation. When he crossed me, our hands rubbed with each other, and this was enough to quicken my breaths and heartbeats. I instantly stepped backward and heard a growl from him while he entered the office. I followed him inside, and he closed the door behind me. I went towards the table and took a chair while he was still standing at the door. I turned the chair and took a seat. Now I am facing him.
"Dad told me you killed a vampire," he said, and I tried to read anything from his expressions but could not do so.
"Yes," I kept my reply short.
"What were you doing in the arsenal when you should have been in the safe house?" he asked me again in the same tone... {it is not a surprise question. He never thought of me as someone who has the guts to even think about fighting someone}
"Layla and I were searching for Beth, Layla found her in the arsenal, and I went there for them. When I entered, that vampire was about to snap Layla's neck. So, I did what I thought was best," I explained to him, and I just wanted to exit this place. This mate bond is clearly having stupid effects on me... {he should wear a shirt or something}.
He started taking steps toward me, and I tried to look not affected by it. "You wanted to say that a human like you entered the arsenal and went unnoticed by a vampire who has the amazing smelling capacity, and that's not all; you beheaded him that easily" he put his hands on either side of the chair handles and leaned so that we were face to face with each other... "I should say either that vampire was a very weak one, or you are a fascinating storyteller," he said while his gaze was fixed on my lips. I can feel his body heat from his n***d torso, which is inches apart from me, and his manly scent is making my head dizzy. "Tell me the truth, aadhya," he whispered huskily, and I shivered.
"I-I a" I tried to say something, but my mind and eyes were only focused on his lips... {How will it feel if these pink lips will cover mine?} ... I have to move forward a little, and our lips will meet. I didn't know what I was doing when I heard a voice... "AAadhyaaa" is the same emotional and cracked voice I heard in my dream yesterday. This is enough to break the trance the mate bond created around us.
I pushed Ethan backward and stood in my place. My heart is pounding wildly in my chest, and my breaths are labored. I looked at Ethan, and he was also breathing heavily. For a few minutes, none of us did or said anything. I recalled everything that happened a few minutes ago, and again, my heart started beating wildly, but this time it was because of anger. I looked at Ethan, who looked immensely irritated and angry with himself... {it seems like I am not the only one affected by mate bond. But the question is, do I really want a bond that is only making me weak and angry?} ...
"I don't have any scent," I told him, and his head jerked towards me "from the day I was born, I never had any scent. The lavender scent that you all consider mine is not mine. It was a scent mom gave me to apply every day so I would not be treated as an outcast. Few of my knowns, Alpha and Luna, know about this. When I killed that vampire, I was not wearing my scent," I told him the truth and took a deep breath. "Yesterday, I don't know how you three were able to smell my scent, but as soon as we exited the pack house, it was gone again."
When I felt wetness on my cheeks, I realized that I was crying. I wouldn't say I like to cry in front of anyone, but crying in front of him feels right... {f**k this stupid mate bond} ... I wanted to tell him everything today. The Moon goddess made him my mate, so with it, she also gave him the right to know everything about me. "I never wanted to be an outcast. I also wanted to be accepted... I also wanted to be loved" I wanted to continue, but a sob escaped through my lips, and I sat on the chair. He is looking at me with a pained expression. I know his wolf wanted to comfort me, but he is stopping himself. He took a deep breath, came towards me, and sat on the chair beside me while maintaining a proper gap between us.
