Alpha Amanda's Love Adventure (By Aurora Grey) novel Chapter 21

Chapter 21 He’s Too Close!

Amanda’s POV:

I was still trying to figure out everything that happened tonight when suddenly Samson scooped me up in his arms.

“Put me down!” I struggled, but he just held me tighter.

His arms were strong and solid. Even through his shirt, I could feel his heat-it made my ears burn.

“Amanda, he’s holding you so tightly!” Alice screamed in my head. “His heart’s beating so fast!”

“Don’t move. The wound will open.” Samson’s voice was sharp and serious, leaving no room for arguing.

I glared up at him, but all I could see was his tense jaw. Was he

worried?

The car pulled away quickly, and he slid me into the passenger seat, reaching for my arm.

I yanked my sleeve down fast. “Don’t touch it!”

His hand froze in midair, eyes darkening. “You need a hospital.”

“No.” I took a deep breath, slowly rolling up my sleeve.

The cut that had been bleeding was now just a pale pink line. No scab, no blood.

Samson’s eyes widened in shock. “What the hell?”

“I …” I had my excuse ready. I lowered my head, voice soft, almost shy. “It runs in my family. My wounds heal really fast. It’s some weird self-healing thing.”

He went quiet for so long that I thought he’d push, but instead, he started the engine again, his voice flat. “Don’t be so reckless again.”

The car was quiet except for the low hum of the engine.

I stared out the window, streets blurring by, and the question I’d been holding in came back.

“Samson,” I said, casual on the outside but careful underneath, “can I ask you something?”

He hummed, eyes on the road.

“If … and I mean if … ” I twisted the seatbelt between my fingers, voice soft. “If your destined

mate turned out plain, no looks, no abilities, just an ordinary Omega… what would you do?”

Alice gasped inside my head. “Amanda, why are you asking this?!”

The steering wheel shifted slightly. Samson looked at me, eyes heavy and serious. “Why do want to know?”

“Just… asking.” I looked away.

The car jolted as he slammed the brakes, pulling to the side.

The turn signal flickered, lighting up his face. He looked straight at me. Every word felt heavy. “A destined mate is the Moon Goddess’s will. Looks, abilities-none of that matters.”

“But-”

“My mate,” he cut me off, voice full of real sincerity, “as long as she’s her, that’s enough. I’ll protect her. Trust her. Respect her.”

My chest thumped like something hit it, a dull ache with heat spreading through me.

I opened my mouth, but my throat locked.

So there really were people … who didn’t care about appearances.

When Samson started driving again, the silence didn’t feel awkward. It felt softer, warmer, something I couldn’t name.

Alice hummed a little tune in my head. I didn’t scold her. Even the wind outside felt gentler.

The car stopped at the castle gates. When he reached to lift me again, I stepped back. “I can walk myself.”

He didn’t argue and just followed quietly behind.

Back in my room, I was about to close the door when his hand pressed against it. “Let me see the wound again.”

“I told you, it’s fine-”

“Let me see.” His voice was soft, but he didn’t take no for an answer.

gave in, rolling my sleeve up slowly.

His fingertips brushed the pale pink scar, cool on my skin, making me flinch.

“Does it still hurt?” His head dipped, long lashes casting shadows on his cheek.
