The Couple novel Chapter 44

Celia

When Chris came into the garden to bring me upstairs into his room to rest, I was smiling madly thinking of what happened in the garden. He asked me what happened but instead of answering his question, I chose to question him about the other matters like he never told me about what happened to Zachary, why grandma is so pissed off with me and did he talk to Jeanne about us or how did he know what to answer the sheriff about the waiter.

While he was climbing up the stairs to his bedroom carrying me like a new bride, he didn’t say a word until we reached inside his room and he locked the door after he made me lie on his bed. Enough of his silent treatment, I get it I made the wrong moves, Jacob understood me but he can’t.

This is the first time I noticed his bedroom, even after I shared my first kiss with him here and spent last night but did not notice my surroundings until now. It was all covered in royal blue or white. He had that big king size white bed at one end of the room which has a huge headboard which covers almost every inch of the back wall. On the right, you might find two big doors which open to a big balcony. I haven’t got to see the view but I am sure it will be beautiful. Beside the door in front of the bed, there is a royal blue couch with just one hand rest and had a small coffee table in front of it painted the same color blue. On the left, there is a walk-in closet joined with a bathroom which has a big bathtub enough to call it a jacuzzi and a separate area to take shower. His bathroom and closet occupy the same space as his bedroom.

Ignoring the simplicity of his room yet speaking of class, I crossed my hands across my chest and looked at the wall on the right as it looked more interesting that moment when he came and sat beside me. I pulled my leg back as he started touching it. I hissed in pain as it still hurts moving the ankle too quickly or too harshly.

“Last night, Mason went to the club and after watching the surveillance footage he bribed the waiter and told him to say Zachary asked to poison the food and later went to kill Zachary too. So, now police thinks Zachary was just a pawn used by someone to kill Harris.” I gasped at the information. I just don’t know how to take in this new information. I felt guilty for being the reason for many deaths in just one day.

Maybe, my move was just not wrong, it was too wrong. I should be punished. Here is this man killing more people for my sake and covering my deeds. He is committing more crimes to save my ass. I can plead guilty for murdering Harris by poisoning although I had no intention to kill him back then but it is too late and possibly it will just mess things more.

My trail of thoughts was disturbed when I felt a thumb wiping my tears from my cheeks. I went over, hugged him and broke in his arms. Suddenly it felt so light and comfortable. I never found crying so easy.

He just laid down beside me, keeping me in his arms safely while I cried my eyes. Now, I can understand why his grandma is upset with me. I pulled her son into crimes and because of me he is murdering people. Although she might not report me or her son but will definitely won’t support killing just for my sake.

We talked about everything that happened till now. I told him about the things I told Olivia, I could not bring myself to talk about Olivia in front of everyone. I was sorry for everything I did till now but this thing embarrassed me. I said such ugly things to her that I couldn’t trust myself. I couldn’t meet his eyes until he pulled my face to meet his eyes. His eyes assured me that he understands but I could see worry in his eyes.

Then, we talked about J and decided that tomorrow we both will talk to her together. He told me grandma will take some time but gradually will move on and accept us. He kept assuring me that things will get better with time but whatever happens he will be there beside me everytime.

‘I am at fault here. I am a bad influence here.’

“No, it wasn’t your fault. You did nothing wrong. You did what you thought was right for you, me and my pack. You did what Luna should have done. You fought.” He spoke as if he read my mind, my thoughts.

“Do you know guys can read minds as well?” I asked him as I chuckled at my thought. A lot has happened and still today I don't know anything about him, his kind and their powers except they have heightened senses and are more powerful than normal human being.

“No, we can talk without speaking with each other and some distance but I think I can read your thoughts.” He said while looking at me in my eyes. Those black orbs were filled with so many emotions. I could feel anger, fear, love, pride, confusion, sorrow, happiness coming from him.

“Surely, you can.” I gave his cheek a peck. But instead of smiling at the joke, his grip around me loosened and he sat up straight facing me. In a confused state, I got up too putting my weight on my elbows.

‘I do mean that we can read each other’s minds surprisingly.’ My eyes widened as I heard those words inside me. They felt like he was speaking to me but I did not see his lips moving. At that moment, I got straight and sat for some distance. He was smiling now while I was trying to sink in this newest information and realise my own feelings.

“Now, you know what I was talking about.” He jumped on me and pushed me down on his bed. I just can’t bring myself to accept this new information. He belongs to a different kind and it gave him and his pack a power to talk using their minds without letting anyone else know but how can I do this with him. I don’t belong to his kind or any other kind he mentioned before. Is it possible because he is different but he can’t talk to everyone like this, right?

I was brought out of my thoughts as he pressed his body more to mine and mine into the bed,if it was possible. Damn, I missed his body weight over mine a lot. I wanted to stay like this for a much longer time until I can’t breathe under his weight anymore.

I could see that golden shade back in his eyes. I know his wolf has golden eyes but why do his human eyes shine golden sometimes, that is a mystery for me yet. I lost in his eyes when he pressed his lips to mine and initiated what I craved for these weeks.

He was sucking one of my lips when I joined him in the kiss and pulled his body down to mine. Trapped his body between my hands and legs. I could feel his dick growing and poking me in my lower belly while we kissed each other and forgot about everything. I missed his taste so much. All this feels so right to touch him again, have him wrapped around my body, lay underneath him and feel his warmth. His tongue was massaging my tongue and muscles when I flipped him over to lay above him.

But as we both flipped on the bed, my ankle got twisted again wrapped around his waist and we pulled away breathless. He checked my ankle and got me to lay on the bed while he made sure it was nothing to worry about.

After confirming it was much, we both broke into laughter. I wanted him more but he just lay beside and wrapped his arms around me. He laid down there with his head hidden in the crook of my neck sniffing me like a dog over and over again.

“It feels good to lie like this.” I know he smiled with his face hidden from my sight. “I didn’t sleep a single night without your body weight over mine. My body got addicted to yours.” I don’t know if I said something wrong or if he got some message in his head but suddenly he left me and got up to sit there still on the bed. I frowned at his action while he looked a bit hurt.

“I thought you loved me, atleast liked me. But all you wanted is my body. Damn, you horny woman.” I broke into laughter hearing his words but he looked at me with that serious look like he wasn’t joking. I got up too and sat facing him.

“I will be honest with you, you’re a nice guy but it was always your hot and yummy body.” I licked his collarbone and nibbled a bit near it. I wanted to continue what we left in the middle just now but he pulled me away holding my shoulders and I frowned thinking if he was really serious but he was smiling. Damn this man, can't he get it I want him and all of him.

“I know and I want it too but right now you need rest. We can’t do it right now.”

I get it his whole family is werewolf and they can hear if I even whimper and since I am a screamer he won’t recommend us doing it here with them. Also, I don’t want them to hear us. It will be awkward us having sex when they don’t want us together. I laid down and closed my eyes but finally being with him and having so many more questions couldn’t let me sleep. This time he placed my injured leg over his and made sure it was safe and secured.

“Why do your eyes turn into golden shade? I know your wolf animal has golden eyes but why do human eyes get a shade of golden sometimes?” I asked him curiously and he sighed with a smile.

“Thank goddess, I was worried if you still haven’t accepted my truth completely. I get it you’re here but I thought you might not want my wolf part. Seeing you taking interest in him too was a relief.” He kissed my forehead before answering my question. “Sometimes, when I get too close to you or get too excited with your thoughts, he wants to come out and meet you shower his love on you. Engulf you in a big hug and never let you go.” He rubbed his nose against my neck.

“He? It was like you were talking about some human or your friend.”

“He is my friend actually and we talk with each other, he gets me most of the time.”

“Can you talk with him? Like how?”
