His Plump Mate (by Buchanan) novel Chapter 291

Chapter 291

Thalia POV

My Tio says I have to try and trust the pack. This is so incredibly difficult for me though. I bared my shame to Aiden today and he came back. Now he wants to finish seeing my scars. I don’t even like looking at them.

“Aiden, -” I started to say, but Aiden grabbed my face gently and kissed me. It was gentle but fierce. Like he is trying to pour all of his love for me in this one kiss.

I feel my arms go limp and I moan into his kiss. The towel must have falling because the next thing I feel is Aiden’s hand on the small of my back, gently feeling my skin. Every scar, every bump, every imperfection. I want to pull away, but this time he doesn’t let me. He kisses me deeper and more passionately than I’m used to and I feel like I can’t breathe. I tap his shoulder before he pulls back.

When he does, I feel him put his nose in my neck and inhale. I raise my hands to his neck and let him. My towel already fell and honestly, I like how he touches me. I like the tingling on my skin that I’m feeling. Plus, he hasn’t seen how completely disgusting my body looks yet. So I want to savor this moment.

Much to my surprise though, Aiden wraps his arms around me more. “Goddess, I love you, Thalia.” He said pulling back, but still keeping his arms wrapped around me. “Let me love you past your scars. Let me love you past your fear. Just let me love you, mojito. Please.” He pleads with me.

“It’s very hard for me to trust freely, Aiden.” I said, taking a deep breath. “But I will try. I can’t promise I won’t close back up or shut down. Life has dealt me a pretty shit hand…until you. Please be patient with me.”

“I can do that. I’m going to pull away now. I want to see you.” He tells me.

I sucked in a breath and nod slightly. I’m terrified of being naked in front of Aiden. But I have to do this if I’m going to start facing my fears. Tio and I talked a lot about this earlier. I have to try.

He pulls away and looks down. I see his eyes darken and a low growl comes from his chest. Leon is not happy either. My scar is long and crosses from the left to the right under my belly button. It crosses to the very top of my right leg. It’s why I never wear bikinis or one piece bathing suits. I don’t wear any bathing suits actually; not since I was a young girl.

Aiden runs a finger all the way along the scar before kneeling down in front of me and kisses it. He starts kissing my burn marks. When he stands back up, I’m in tears.

“Why are you crying?” He asks.

“I know what I look like, Aiden.” I said, “But you really don’t care?” I asked as a question, because it’s hard to believe.

“I don’t care about the scars. I only care that it still hurts you every day and I will kiss them every day if I have to, until you don’t hurt from them anymore. Turn around.”

He said gently.

I swallow nervously and turn around slowly. Once again, I hear that low growl in his throat. I feel him put his hands on my hips as he kneels down again and starts feeling and kissing my scars. When he stands back up, he moves my hair away from my neck and kisses me. It sends a shiver down my spine and my head leans back against his chest.

“Shower with me.” He whispers in my ear as he kisses my neck again.

“Aiden, – “I said, but he cuts me off.

“Please.” He said, “Will you trust me?”

I pause nervously. I do trust him. It’s hard for me though. I feel vulnerable in front of him, but oddly, I also feel safe. I nodded slightly and he takes me by the hand. Thank you.” He bends down and picks up the towel. “In this bedroom, it’s just you and me, Thalia. I want you to be comfortable with your body around me. Don’t hide from me anymore, okay?”

I take a deep breath, “Okay.”

He smiles gently at me. “Come on, let’s go shower.” He says, leading me out of the bedroom. When the door opens, I almost want to run back into the closet and close the door. Aiden senses it and he stops and looks at me. “You got this Thalia. You are strong and fierce.”

Honestly, I feel like a scared kitten trying to hide in a box. He is right though. It’s just the two of us in here. I am being irrational. I take him by the hand and we walk towards the bathroom. When he closes the door behind us, he goes to the linen closet and pulls out extra towels.

He turns on the shower and lets the water steam up. While that is going, he looks at me. “I’m going to undress. Are you going to be okay with me being naked in front of you?”

I think back to the day we were in the hotel. He was only wearing that towel and his body looked chiseled to perfection. I was so embarrassed I was caught staring. I try to be funny in my response, but I think I fail miserably, “Only if you are okay with me

staring.” I said shyly and looking down.
