I whisper as 1 wrap the sheet around her shoulders, pressing my cheeks against the side of her head as I wrap my arms around her.
She lets out an anguished cry as she tries to shake me off, “Ada! Ada, wake up! Let go of me!”
“Hey… Angel, listen to me-“
“Let go of me!”
she snarls, turning her blazing eyes on me as she tries to push me away. “Don’t come anywhere near me!”
She glares at me, pain and rage clear in her eyes. “Listen to me, please-“
I try again only for her to push me viciously, the tight place not giving either of us much room and I’m thrown against the seat behind me, grunting from the impact of her punch to the chest that I didn’t see coming. “I’m not going anywhere,”
I say softly.
Grief is hard to cope with… and everyone reacts differently to loss. Seeing her so broken brings back the pain of Mom’s death, which is still raw, and it only invokes those raw emotions. Yet seeing her like this hurts far more than the poundingof her fists on my chest.
I cup her face, only for her to yank away. “I hate you! Get the fuck away from me!”
she screams as she grabs onto her sister’s shoulders. “Adal Wake up! NOW!”
she slams her fist into the table beside the bed as if the loud bang would make Ada jolt up.
The smell of blood reaches my nose, her thundering heart and the pain she’s in makes me ignore her commands to stay away from her and I wrap my arms around her tightly, pulling gher into my lap as I wrap the sheet tight around body. Ther slender
“Let go of me!”
Her voice breaks as she continues to try to wriggle free.
“Adriana.”
Zade’s cold voice comes, and I glance at him as he gets into the ambulance which is beginning to feel pretty small. He looks down at us, raising an eyebrow and I look back, challenging him to dare say anything at all
She ignores him, but she’s stilled, her head buried in my chest, her shoulders shaking with silent sobs.
Her heart rate suddenly spikes, and I look down at her, trying to move her back, but she refuses to move.
“Her pulse-“
“Yeah,”
Zade says as he leans down and before I can react, he’s injected something into her neck.
“What the fuck did you just do!”
I snarl, my eyes blazing.
He raises an eyebrow, humourlessly scoffing. “Swearing doesn’t fucking suit you. I just put her to sleep. She can get pretty worked up and right now we don’t want her to harm herself. I’m sure we can both agree on that?”
Frowning, I brush my finger down her neck, as her head drops back, and I cup it in my hand as I stare into her tear-stained face as her heart rate returns to normal. She’s beautiful… from the curve of her nose, her lips… the shape of her jaw…
“She isn’t one to cry… so that speaks loud enough,”
Zade says quietly as he sits back and glances at the open doors. “Let’s get her back home.”
I nod, for once agreeing with him, and he motions for my men to shut the doors. They glance at me, and I nod, giving my approval.
“To the original destination,”
“Yes, Alpha!”
After a few moments, the ambulance begins moving and I stare down at the woman in my arms. I had wanted to see her happy, see her excited to have her sister close by… Valerie and my doctors all said moving her wouldn’t affect her condition
Guilt rushes through me and I hold her a little closer, combing my fingers through her hair. If we didn’t move her, would she have been ok?
Deep down I know that isn’t true, but I can’t help but wonder.
I glance up to see Zade looking at Ada expressionlessly. I can’t tell what he’s feeling, but that’s just the way he is. Closed off and good at appearing cold.
He scoffs, almost as if he can read my thoughts as he turns his attention to me. “Why the fuck are you even holding her?”
“Why should I let you?”
“Makes more sense that I take care of her than the mate that rejected her, don’t you think?”
He sits back, cocking an eyebrow.
“I didn’t reject her. I just needed to come to terms with everything. You wouldn’t understand.”
“Oh, I fucking would. My mate and I are from extremely different lifestyles, remember?”
“Yeah…”
He’s right…
“She doesn’t fit the mould you’re looking for. That’s the fucking truth, isn’t it?”
“Like I said to you before, you don’t fucking know anything.”
“Then explain it to me. Why were you avoiding her back then? Why didn’t you want to accept that she is your mate?”
“You really know nothing.”
“Do you think you’re too good for her? That’s the fucking truth righ-“
“No, it’s not!”
“Then fucking tell me why!”
“Because! Because I ans net blessed vugh to ever have something good! It was sedy a matter of tourneren wasn’t the type of guy she wants to be with. So, it was better in avoid the inevitable rejectum Phe once, I’m fucking glad he doesn’t show emotions on his face because I just made myself sound like a fuckingidiot
“So, without even knowing her, yver assumed all that trulshit? Zade raises an eyebrow
“Don’t act like I did something stupid, She’s grown up around men like you.”
“Jealous?”
“Oh, not at all But there are different kinds of people in the world, Zade. And we are very different, and rest asatred, I don’t want to be anything like you.”
That makes him smirk slightly, “Yeah, not everyone can be me”
“Lcould say the same about me.”
“Good to low, cus I didn’t take you for the type to be insecure about yourself, but my question is how can you know what she might want without even giving her a chance to make her own choice? You might be surprised that there may just be something she decides is good enough to stay for.”
“That sounds almost like a compliment from you.”
“Don’t get the wrong idea. I’m just saying Adriana is pretty different from most women. She might just be a little delusional.”
I chuckle a little at that as I look down at her. She’s still curled into me and I’m enjoying just holding her tight.
Different… that’s why she stands out. She’s an incredible and brave woman, and there’s something about her that makes every other woman I know pale in comparison.
Tears still linger on her cheeks and, one-handed, I brush them away gently.
Maybe I should just be myself and give her a chance to make that decision… I’m already drawn to her. I have nothing more to lose… But for now, I will be there for her without expecting anything in return. And when she feels better maybe I will just try not to hold back and see what is written in the stars for us.
ATTICUS
“How is she?”
I ask quietly the moment Valerie shuts the door behind herself. She glances at Adriana’s bedroom door before walking down the hall to where I’m waiting against the stair rail.
Sighing, she shakes her head. “Not great. She isn’t saying anything much. She just told me to leave.”
“And has Zade tried to talk to her? She wouldn’t defy her alpha.”
Valerie looks at me with a sympathetic expression and shakes her head. “She doesn’t want to see him right now, either.”
“And since when does he listen to anyone?”
I frown.
“Since she decided to wear nothing and said it would be a violation of her privacy if I entered her room,”
Zade’s cold voice comes.
My eyes widen in surprise as Valerie smiles slightly. “I mean it worked…”
