âWhatâs wrong, Cara?â
She dragged a hand through her hair and paced around the office.
âItâs just that, uhm-â I walked over and placed a hand on her shoulder.
âRelax and just tell me whatâs wrong,â
âItâs you,â my hand jerked back as though her skin burnt me and a pit formed in my stomach where my heart dropped into.
âNo no, that came out wrong Iâm sorry. I just mean that I know something is up with you,â
âHas Kade said something to you?â My eyes were scanning her and I did feel her but I saw nothing, no memories which could only mean they knew what I was capable of and were fighting it.
âPlease stop,â she breathed and my eyes snapped back.
âI know, we all do, about you and your powers.â
âKade knows?â
âYes, heâs the one that told the rest of us,â
âI donât understand, how could he know when I barely understand it myself?â I was stuck in a loop of thoughts and none of them did me any good.
âHe knows because itâs not the first time. Youâre not the only wolf with the ability to do what you do,â
âThere are others?â A sudden spark lit up within me, i felt my lips pulling up and my shoulders rising to my ears.
âThere are but Layla, itâs not all good news. You see the gene you have that allows you too see peoples memories itâs part of a species that-â the door slammed open and me and Cara jumped.
âLeave.â He growled and looked at his sister. With obsidian eyes and a jaw so tense you could sharpen a knife on it he stepped toward me and closed the door behind him.
âSit down.â He pulled out the chair and waited for me to obey.
âNo. You know something and youâre not telling me,â
âAm i the only one?â He seethed and stepped so close that his chest bumped against me and I fell back a step.
âDoes that matter? Two wrongs donât make a right so letâs just put all the cards on the table right now.â I said and stepped closer. I rolled back my shoulders and held my own against him. Kadeâs hand came up and laid on my waist. He leaned down, his lips grazing my jaw and my head fell to the side welcoming his touch.
âI donât want you to get hurt,â he whispered.
I leaned my head back up and cupped his face, staring deeply into his eyes I couldnât help but lean in and taste his lips.
âI wonât,â he grabbed the back of my head and pressed himself onto me.
Our tongues were fighting for dominance and he won, his hands came down my thighs and he lifted me up and placed me down on the desk.
The taste of him was impeccable, the more I had the more I wanted and I couldnât stop. Nor did I want to.
I slid my fingers down his chest and lifted the shirt over his head. Our lips were in a euphoric dance of power and my fingers slipped down to his belt. He grabbed my hands and held them still.
Leaning his forehead against mine and panting he breathed, ânot here,â
Kade grabbed my hand and we walked out of the office and into our room. It was dark and neither of us turned the lamp on. Instead, in the dark, he pressed his lips against mine and slowly removed my shirt.
He took his time with each movement. His eyes gazed over each part of my skin and I had never been looked at with so much love in my life.
Only now did it hit me that he was mine. Kade was mine.
He walked us over to the bed and gently lifted me and placed me down softly.
âYouâre beautiful,â he said huskily. His fingers grabbed a hold of the hem of my pants and he pulled them off.
Kade leaned over me, his hand rested beside my head and his eyes never left mine.
âHave you ever-â
âNo,â i said and he smiled.
âThen itâll hurt but only for a moment,â
The tip of his length played against my entrance and slowly slid between my wet folds before he gently pushed it in all the way.
My head flew back and I winced but just as he had said, the pain quickly subsided and left was the undeniable pleasure.
âFuck,â i breathed as he began thrusting.
He was gentle, soft and loving with every move and his lips came down in search of mine. Whenever they were on me I felt like they found home.
âFaster,â i gasped and his eyes shot up as a smirk deepened on his lips.
âAhh!â My body was tossed around and he lifted me up so I was standing on all fours as he pressed into me.
I felt my core contracting and dug my nails into the bed as I came and it felt like I had died and gone to heaven.
Kade thrusted harder and groaned as his seed was planted deep inside of me.
Me and Kade fell down beside each other, he lifted me and placed my head on his chest, pressing me up closer against his body.
âHoly shit,â I laughed.
I looked up at him, his fingers were playing in my hair but as I saw his face I could tell something was off. His brows were hunched, his eyes were fixated on the wall and he looked deep in thought. As I stared into his eyes i felt content and peacefulness but also sorrow and loss and I couldnât for the life of me figure out why I was feeling these things; or rather why he was feeling these things.
Both of us fell asleep in the same position with my head on his chest and when I woke up i saw that he was gone.
Before my brain had a chance to wake up the door flung open and a far to energized Anna came barging in.
âGet dressed, weâre going out!â She squealed and started rummaging through my closet. She suddenly stopped with two shirts in her hands and turned around. Her eyes were wide, her chin was down to the floor and her brows shot up.
âYouâre naked,â she pointed out like a true detective.
âI am,â i said and smiled. Anna dropped everything she had in her hands and jumped up on the bed.
âdid you sleep with him?â I giggled and rolled my eyes.
A yawn pressed itself out and i rubbed my eyes but however tired I felt the soreness of my bones reminded me of last night and I smiled.
âI did and it was amazing,â my voice was quiet from fear of anyone overhearing but the door was closed.
âTell me everything!â Her eyes were dangerously wide and she grabbed my hands.
âwe slept together, Anna, itâs nothing more to tell than that. You know how it works when a man and a woman go to be together,â I rose a brow and looked knowingly at my dear friend. She wasnât one to turn down a cute guy.
âI do but i donât know what itâs like with a mate,â my eyes drifted and I thought back.
âBetter than anything youâve expired so far Iâd say,â she squealed and jumped off the bed.
âWhere are we going?â I asked and stepped out of the bed and tied a robe around my body.
The sun was gleaming outside and it was already eleven oâclock.
âWere taking a stroll through town and then weâre going to a party tonight,â
âWhere?â She turned around and scanned a dress that she held in her hands.
âWhat are you, eighty?â She asked and held a pink floral skirt in her other hand.
âItâs my moms, put it back,â I said and scoffed. I needed something to remember her by apart from my DNA.
âFine, the party is at a club and we were invited,â my head turned and my lips tugged up as the thought of dancing and drinking entered my mind.
âThat sounds like fun,â
âSo youâre in?â
âYeah, Iâm in,â I bit down on my tongue and went in search of something to wear.
