Kidnapped by my mate (Belle and Grayson) novel Chapter 29

Kidnapped by My Mate

 

Chapter 29

 

I stared at the phone, my thumb hovering over the screen. Deliberating.

My plan had been to book a flight when Grayson wasn’t looking. Then I’d sneak out to the airport sometime during the night. Maybe I could even be home by the morning.

I knew that now would be my only chance to do this.

I glanced at the bathroom door, a deep part of me almost hoping that he would come out, see what I was doing, and stop me. I was just so scared. This was all too much.

I opened up the internet browser on his iPhone but couldn’t bring myself to type anything, even though I knew I was running out of time.

Even just thinking about leaving Grayson made the pain in my chest grow more and more. My mark throbbed and tears were starting to well in my eyes.

But what about my apartment? My job? It had already been really irresponsible of me to spend even an extra night in France rather than racing home.

My rent was already late, and my landlord wasn’t exactly the forgiving type.

And I knew that if I brought it up with Grayson he would just smooth talk me into staying another day. I was afraid to disagree with him. I’d seen what he was capable of.

I’ll never do anything to hurt you, he had said. But was that true? Talk to me. Communicate. We’ll figure it out together.

But what would he say if I told him that I was planning on escaping tonight and going home? And that I wasn’t sure if I still had a job or even an apartment, and I might be homeless?

I had always taken so much pride in being able to provide for not only myself but also after he became unemployed because of his illness.

She had seemed so worried when she found out that my mate was an alpha, and had even helped me come up with a plan to get away from him.

But I couldn’t imagine Grayson hurting me. I took in a deep breath. I trusted him. I trusted him with my life. If he was planning on hurting me, then I would deal with that later.

For now, I just wanted to enjoy being with him without overthinking it.

I suddenly heard the shower turn off. My heart jumped. Seconds later, Grayson walked out of the bathroom with a towel hanging dangerously low on his hips.

He ran a hand through his hair, his muscles rippling with his every movement.

“I didn’t realize how much of your mother’s mate’s blood I had on me. Sorry if it freaked you out.”

Without even knowing what I was doing, I launched myself at him, throwing my arms around his n*eck. He immediately wrapped his arms around me to stabilize himself.

“Whoa, what’s going on, baby?”

I began sobbing into his n*eck, letting all the emotions from the last couple of weeks flood my b*dy and take me over. I couldn’t help it.

Grayson probably thought I was insane.

His grip on me tightened.

“Belle, baby, what’s wrong?” he asked in a panicked voice. “Why are you crying?”

I just shook my head. I couldn’t speak through the intense so bs racking my b*dy.

Grayson rubbed my back in a soothing way, then picked me up so that my legs encircled his waist. He walked us to the bed and sat us down, with me straddling him.

“Talk to me, Belle,” he said, forcing my face out of his n*eck. Once I was looking at him, he ran the pad of his thumb over my cheek, wiping away my tears.

“You’re freaking me out, beautiful. What’s wrong?”

I took in a shaky breath. “I don’t want to leave you,” I said through my tears.

Grayson’s b*dy stiffened. “Why would you leave me?” he growled out.

iffled. I slowly reached beside us and grabbed his phone that was lying on the bed. It was still on. I held it up for him to see.

“What?” he asked, obvious confusion lacing his voice. He took the phone from me.

I shut my eyes tightly, preparing myself for what was to come next. “I grabbed it from the bathroom counter when you weren’t looking. I was going to book a flight home and then sneak out of here tonight.

“My mom said that if I left something that smelled like me next to you while you were sleeping, you wouldn’t notice I was gone until morning.”

He gripped my hips tighter, and his breathing became uneven.

“Belle, look at me.”

I shook my head. I didn’t want to see how mad he was..

He grabbed my chin and squeezed it softly. “Look at me, mate.”

I opened one eye and peeked at him. He didn’t look as angry as I’d thought he would be. I bit my l*p.

“First of all,” Grayson started, “that would have never worked. Maybe a normal wolf wouldn’t notice their mate missing, but not an alpha. I would have noticed right away, or my wolf would have. We’re attuned to every part of your b*dy, even during sleep everything about you, not just your scent.”

I began fumbling with my shirt, my cheeks turning bright red.

He grabbed my chin again and forced me to look back at him. His expression became intense.

“Second, you are never leaving me. No matter where you go or how many times you run,
