Stars Above Lonely Nights — Michael Brown novel Chapter 67

Nova POV:

“So I’ve just spoken to Laurence and everything is going fine at the pack, Axel and Evan are busy compiling information on places mentioned for hunter meetings on Hannah’s phone. I’ve suggested they wait till we are back to go and scout places” Jax says as he takes a seat next to me on the bed. “But I have some good news for you..Florence is back and recovering with Andrew. They should be ok to return to their suite tomorrow and I’ve asked Naomi and Alice to lend a hand if they need anything.”

Hearing that I smile as relief fills my body, “oh thank the goddess.”

“How are you feeling?” Jax asks looking deep into my eyes.

“I feel a bit strange, I need to tell you something. I didn’t go that hard on Anthony one because he will suffer enough from the council alone and two because he did it out of desperation. But also I swear I could feel his emotion and it was quite overwhelming” I admit.

“You could feel his emotion?” Jax asks in shock.

“Yes. Not like how I feel yours through the matebond but when he admitted to what he did wrong it was like my body was doused in sadness and guilt. When he spoke about his sister I could literally feel the love he has for her pulse through my body” I try and explain. “I couldn’t feel anything from the pain I inflicted.”

“Have you felt that at any other time?” Jax asks intrigued.

“I think I felt it earlier when Johnathon admitted to being my uncle, I felt the love he had for me. I think I have been experiencing it since my birthday but this evening had me realising it and it’s become much more apparent. But it’s not all the time, I think it’s when there are strong emotions involved” I muse as I fiddle with the duvet sheet.

“We have a lot more information to read that Johnathon has found so we can look into it tomorrow, I wonder if there is a way Kia can help shield you from it so it doesn’t become overwhelming” he suggests thoughtfully. “Would you like a bath running? It will help us relax.”

Hearing that my ears perk up, “us?” I tease.

“Saves water” he winks cheekily before kissing my temple and walking to the bathroom. A few minutes later he calls me through and I gasp as I get to the door, in the bath are some white petals and he has lit candles basking the room in a soft glow. “This looks so welcoming” I whisper in shock, “how did you get everything?”

“Alice packed it for us, I think she anticipated a bit of relaxation would be in order” he admitted. “Oh and..” he starts turning round and opening a cupboard, “ta..dah” he exclaims happily holding out a bottle and two glasses.

“Wine” I say with a wide smile. “This screams Alice” I giggle.

With a wink he walks over and helps me out my clothes before dropping a kiss on my neck and guiding me to the bath, “get in” he whispers as he pours two glasses. “For you my Luna” he says with a dramatic bow before handing me a glass as I giggle at his playful antics.

Grinning he lifts his top over his head making my mouth go dry as I’m left faced with his well defined muscles and tantalisingly teasing v lines. Seeing he hadn’t moved for a bit I drag my eyes upwards to meet his amused gaze. “Like what you see?” He asks huskily.

“Hmm maybe” I shrug before biting my bottom lip gaining his attention.

“I’d stop eye fucking me love it’s not helping me right now” he says with a pained expression as I giggle. “Woman” he scowls playfully before undoing his buttons and stepping out of trousers and briefs fluidly.

“Oh” I gasp as his hard shaft bounces to attention making heat pool below.
