My Unforgivable Mate novel Chapter 68

"He broke my heart, but I still love him with all the pieces," I try pulling the corners of my mouth into a smile. "As cliché as that sounds, it's true. I'm doing this for me."

Our walk continues as our silence hangs thick in the air but I keep my eyes straight ahead not wanting to continue my ramble, the stillness of our surroundings makes me look back multiple times to ensure we haven't frozen in time.

"And have you-" his sudden pause makes me look over at him. "Have you found someone willing enough to bite you, again?" His eyes stay on mine, something about the darkness of the green in his eyes make them look brown, I don't know why.

"No." I shake my head focusing on my path once more. "No, I haven't."

"You staying over?" His voice goes up a octave as I spot his place in the distance. "I could always drive you home but I did just get a new couch and I need the best of the best to test it out." I chuckle a little. "Plus it's a little over midnight. We have school tomorrow."

"That could get me in some trouble," his place gets closer, even form a far he still has his porch lights on with his light up path. "I didn't tell anyone."

"Pff," I turn to him shrugging. "What's the worse that could happened?" We come to a stop at his door and he swings I open, I take my shoes off before wondering in as he switches the lights on. "Bedroom's the first door on your left."

I turn to him. "I thought you said you were taking the bedroom?"

"Wow!" His eyebrows raise bringing more life to his eyes.

"What?"

"I know your alpha and all, but that's a little cocky of you. When I said the best of the best would test my new couch out, I was talking in third person." I go to punch him in his arm. "Ow!"

"You're an ass! That's definitely not how you put it."

"Didn't mean to lead you on," I roll my eyes to his comment. I start to move according to his directions and find the bedroom automatically. His whole room had a dark theme to it, the bed, curtains, sheets, nightstands.

I move to his royal Egyptian looking bed before ripping the corner off for me to get in, a new ceiling to stare up at. Taking as much as I can I turn to my side and cling onto myself, I need to at least try fall asleep.

There's t no reminders of Malic here, here I can try.

I don't make it far into my snooze, out of nowhere I'm shaken away with my name repeated to me. "Yes I'm waking her I right now-Nadia!" My eyes open to Tomas on the phone. "She's up, we'll be there in ten." He hangs up.
