he confessed and I saw the truth in his eyes.
Fear of losing me? What did he mean? Why was he going to lose me that day?
“During no stage of my life have I ever doubted you Willow,”
he looked into my confused eyes full of love and cupped my jaw. I broke into tears, his hand getting wet with my warm tears.
“I never thought my words broke you to this level,”
Reuben silently watched my tears and gently kissed them, “There is no way that I could ever doubt my other half. I can doubt my shadow but never you, Willow,”
he confessed, slowly capturing my lips.
I looked at his closed eyelids, feeling his soft kiss while freely letting my tears flow down my cheek.
Reuben never doubted me.
He never stopped believing me.
He never
My heart quickened to the point that I could not bury my feelings any more.
“Please trust me this once, Willow. Trust me this once ”
he begged between the kiss, “Kiss me. Please, kiss me.”
My heart eased a bit with his pleading. Feeling his soft kisses, my hands automatically clenched his coat as I moved my lips and kissed Reuben back.
Willow
I kissed him. I kissed Reuben back. After six long years, we were sharing a proper kiss and I did not know which one of us that I should blame for it. Though admittedly my wolf, long my buried heat, and lack of impulse control were not helping the situation. At that moment, I completely forgot about our past, the pain, and memories. I let him embrace all the pieces of my broken self, revealing the weakness that I had been hiding from the world. His lips gently crashing into mine were like silent whispers from the past, his tongue teasing every inch of my mouth was like every moment it met my lips would be its last.
The dark sky was flooded with colorful fireworks, highlighting both of our frames in an array of different hues. The both of us slowly broke the kiss, our lips parted an inch away from each other but I kept my eyes closed catching my breath. Reuben softly rubbed his thumb under my eye sending sparks through to my whole body.
I slowly opened my eyes to see Reuben’s beautiful green eyes only to realize that after six years I was once again back to his arms.
What kind of game was the Moon Goddess playing with me?
“Alpha, this woman invaded our territory,”
a warrior informed, pulling me out of my thoughts.
“Let me go! I swear I am not a thief! Let me go!!”
A woman’s cry entered my ears pulling me out of my thoughts as I found the voice very familiar.
I immediately tore my gaze away from Reuben and turned to find two warriors holding a woman.
“Lola?!”
I gasped.
Lola looked at me in shock with fearful tears in her brown eyes, “Willow, save me!! Tell them I am not a thief,”
she begged, desperately struggling in their grasp.
I panicked and stepped forward, “Let her go. She is my friend,”
I ordered both men but they looked past me at Reuben.
Reuben gestured for them to retreat. Once Lola got free of them she dashed closer to me in fear.
“Lola, what are you doing here?”
“I I came to handle the Walter situation for you since I messed it up by hiding the name of the model from you. I had learned your address from him, so I came here directly but this ”
she choked and secretly glanced at Reuben before whispering to me, “These people .I saw an exceedingly large number of dangerous looking men earlier! Are they part of the mafia?!”
“No, they are not,”
I whispered back, feeling helpless.
“Then they must be criminals!”
she stammered but was loud without realizing it.
I gave her a tight smile and replied, “They are not.”
She gave me a weak nod while eyeing Reuben. In the next moment, I saw a soft blush steel over her cheeks at the sight of Reuben. “Who is that? He is damn handsome”
she whispered once again.
I flashed her another tight smile. If she only knew that he could hear her no matter how quietly she whispered.
“Is he your boyfriend?”
she whispered.
When she called Reuben my boyfriend, my heart quickened as I recalled our kiss a few moments ago. My face flushed red when I felt Reuben’s eyes boring into my face. I did not dare to lift my eyes to look at him as I grabbed Lola’s hand. “Let’s go to the hotel where you are staying.”
I walked away quickly before Reuben could stop me or could die of embarrassment. Lola followed me in confusion as desperate as me to leave the pack even though both of our reasons for wanting out of this pack immediately were different. However, before I could take another step I felt a strong arm wrapping around my waist from behind.
I gasped and froze in Reuben’s warm embrace as he whispered, “Drop me a message when you reach the hotel with her. And best of luck at tomorrow’s fashion show. I will be waiting for you here when you get home,”
he kissed my cheek from behind.
My ears turned red hot. What was that? Did he know I was running away and would not return tonight? I clenched my dress at my side, without answering him but my heart beat betrayed me. Reuben chuckled and slowly let my waist go. I resumed walking and quickly drove my car out of the pack with Lola.
Reuben
I never thought waiting could be this hard
“The reports from those incidents with the three packs and Blue Heavens are about to be made publicly available out,”
Bix informed, resting his back against the chair after a two hour long meeting.
I just nodded in response, my eyes once again going to the clock that stated it was already nine in the evening. She was still not back. Was her fashion show still not finished?
Oran stated, “Reuben, don’t you find it strange that those mysterious attacks have suddenly stopped?”
