♦Diya♦

You know who you're playing with right?"

Suddenly his hand squeezed my face and I groaned.

"ahh!"

He gets annoyed so easily, angry bird kahika.

"Yeah, of course, the great kidnapper."

I taunted, infuriating the grumpy wolfie. I grabbed his arm to push his hand off but he was stronger. Ugh! Stupid superpowers.

"Mhm," came his dry response.

His hungry eyes narrowed like an annoyed powerful dom sending chills down my spine. I froze like a fluffy cat about to push the glass off the table to think twice about the consequences.

He held my gaze as if challenging me for an intense stare game. Well, it's on then. I stared back trying hard to keep up with the evil proud smirk spread on his lips.

I tried to push his hand again but his grip only got stronger earning a hiss from me. I glare at him but it makes no difference to him as he knew well how was affecting me.

Suddenly, he pulled my face deadly close to his. His intense stare was already giving my tummy very bad butterflies and his hot breath fanning my face made me want to bite on his lips.

I almost thought he was going to kiss me but he stopped only inches away. He was bloody playing with me!

His teeth suck in his lower lip and leisurely bite on it while pushing it out. My hand grips tighter on his arm as I act to be unaffected. I gulp as he temps me to make a move first.

Shit, no. Focus!

I looked back into his orbs. His fierce brown orbs made him look even more dangerous than he already was. I felt timid under his heated stare.

I'd lose if I give in and that's what he wants. I'm not giving in!

My eyes drop for a minute second at his abs. Forgetting all the self-control, my heart dropped in awe.

I looked up immediately.

He smirked, well aware of how he was affecting me. I wanted to scratch that stupid smirk on his face. Ugh!

It's bloody unfair, why is he so hot?

Just a gaze at his naked torso made my insides flip in anticipation and excitement. I couldn't focus with him half-naked on display. He was so brawny and sexily built for my innocent eyes to not gawk or get high.

How do I not melt in front of him?

The silence was making me bite my lips. My teeth mercilessly dig into my lower lip. What the fuck is wrong with me. Fucking say something! He cannot win just with a stare. No.

His perilous stare was screaming he could literally eat me with no traces left for messing with him. And, for some orgasmic reasons, I just wanted that right now.

I was so shameless but I didn't care.

"Correction, werewolf," I finally said looking into his eyes. I was really playing with fire. But it was so thrilling.

"Right." He spoke in an unbothered and authoritative tone with a slight nod of his head.

Was his voice a turn-on? Yes, extremely.

His deadly grin grew wide as he said that and finally let go of my poor jaw. His eyes dropped to my cheek where he was now feathering softly.

"Did I hurt you?" he asked softly.

How can someone go from so dangerous to so gentle that fast?

I slightly shook my head with a light giggle. Maybe my cheeks had his fingers printed due to his hold.

While he caressed my face I took the chance to stare shamelessly at his face. His stubble and moustache made him look rough. His orbs were brown but looked, even more, darker now. Darker than his sinful soul. It had a blackish ring surrounding it. I noticed his eyes were slightly red as if he had cried earlier. But why would he cry? Maybe I'm assuming it wrong, something might have fell in his eyes.

His eyelashes were long and thick, they almost made me feel insecure about mine.

His hair was such a mess tempting me greatly to run my fingers through those shining strands. But, I was also spooked he'd tie my hands for even thinking of that. I can't risk myself getting tied. Ugh! Only if he wasn't a werewolf with superpowers, things would have been a lot easier.

My eyes couldn't help but drop at his lips. His tasty lips. I gulp remembering what just happened. I bite the inside of my cheeks feeling hot and bothered all over again.

He suddenly pinched my nose bringing me out of my trail of thoughts. I whimpered looking back into his eyes.

"Ow!"

I scrunched my nose in annoyance.

As if he found that amusing he laughed and kissed my nose.

I couldn't help the blush. My cheeks were already on fire. No, my whole soul was on fire. He was doing crazy things to me and I was not in my control anymore. My brain wasn't ready to think of anything other than him. It was so dangerous.

Him and I.

Not good.

This was wrong. All wrong. He had kidnapped me and I was kissing him. Not just kissing-

My body froze as shame gripped me tightly and I felt a strong chill run down my spine feeling guilty all of a sudden.

I gulped as my throat felt dry unexpectedly and looked away to ease my building anxiety.

I realized it was getting bright. It was morning already. I had no idea how the night passed. The room had started to fill with light through the open windows. I looked through the window. It was still a little dark meant the sun wasn't out yet.

This was all wrong. How can I let him in? Have I gone crazy? He was a werewolf who kidnapped me. I am supposed to find a way to get the bloody hell out of here. This is all a facade. I don't belong here. What am I doing?

I looked back at him as his fingers fondled my cheeks delicately as if it was something very fragile. Well, in front of his bulky body, I was more than just fragile. After all, he was a werewolf with all the superpowers and I was a basic weak human being.

He and I can never be a thing. It was an impossible dream.

Soft golden lights falling on his face were making his skin glow. My eyes couldn't help but stare at his shiny hair, cute cheeks, and oh the pouty lips.

A smile spread on my lips looking at his content and at peace. My gaze stayed longer at his lips. Precisely, the swollen lower lip. It had turned almost red. I was still yearning to taste and bite on that alluring set of his lips. His lips could spark some already burning desires inside of me.

We weren't talking, but it was still comfortable. The silence was soothing. I was so out of order when he wasn't here. I will never admit this but I really missed him. I was going crazy without him in sight.

I can't believe I was giving myself in the hands of a werewolf. But it wasn't like it was any more in my hands. I cannot keep fighting with my feeling for a long time.

Closing my eyes, I leaned into his heavenly touch. It was relaxing.

Maybe I was stupid to give in but it was done. I was already falling deep for this precious soul. And I couldn't stop it. I tried. I did. But I can't do it anymore. It was unbearable.

"Hug me." I pleaded.

He sat up and pulled me in his arms. I held on to him tightly. I breathe him in and kiss his neck before resting my head on his shoulder. My eyes and overthink shut close as his hands snaked around me tightly making me feel calm. The sound of our hearts beating in sync was so pacifying.

"I love you," he whispered to me. His voice was strong and certain. I smiled feeling happy suddenly. I grabbed him tighter.

I snuggled more into him nuzzling my head in his neck. One of his hands was around my waist and the other ran leisurely in my hair massaging gently.

"I loved you so much. Why did you do that to me?" I said in between my sobs. My voice was so clogged due to crying badly. I hid my face in my palms.

Hritvik looked into my eyes shamelessly. His attitude was screaming he didn't feel a tiny bit guilty. He was just caught in action with another girl in his room how can he bloody even face the girl he just cheated on?

"It didn't mean anything, Diya! Are you fucking insane? You know, I only love you."

Immediately, my eyes shut open as the ugly memory shook me to the core. My heart was suddenly pounding so fast due to the fear building inside me. I tried to let go of him but he didn't let me go. Instead, he held me tighter.

"Hey, what happened?" Adrian asked in a tense voice.

I just shook my head slightly avoiding looking at him. My throat was already clogging up. I didn't trust my voice.

His arms tightened around me making me feel safe and at peace without saying a thing. I was grateful he didn't push it. I had no idea what I would have told.

He wasn't anything like the guy who broke my heart into tiny pieces and dared to make a fine powder of it. Jokes on me, I let him blow that same powder into my face.

I hated every moment I spent of my life with him. I wanted to erase every memory of him and every trace of his existence but it wasn't easy. The pain that he caused was still clutching me tightly. I couldn't trust anything or anyone after what he did.

Can I really trust Adrain?

What if he one day realise I'm no match for him and throw me away just like Hritvit did?

But Adrian wasn't anything like Hritvik which was one of the reasons I was falling deeper. He had his eyes only on me. Everything was so different with him.

So candid yet not scary. He made me feel safe at the end of the day.

So out of control yet never out of emotions. He was still holding me so tightly because he knew I wasn't feeling right.

So cautious yet so passionate. Everything was only dangerous which somehow added to all the excitement and nervousness.

Right now, nothing was in my hands. But I guess, it's okay. Feelings cannot be suppressed for long. I tried but failed badly. It was out of my control, and only he could help me. Because nothing I did worked to stop me from feeling these insane overflowing feelings for him. It was impossible. Love that he holds for me in his eyes comes only once in a lifetime. If he's gone I'll be doomed. I needed him just as much as he needed me.

I had stopped believing in the word Love after Hritvik but I didn't know life had this turn for me.

What if it turns out I'm not his mate and it all comes to an end? What if he's secretly planning to kill me to feed his fellow werewolves later?

"You're overthinking," he said calmly caressing my head.

"Can you read my thoughts???"

I pulled away and asked in surprise.

"Not yet, but if you let me bite you," his cold fingers grazed my neck, the area under my ear. It felt electric as his thirstful gaze bore into my neck. "You can hear my thought too."

I narrowed my eyes as it clicked to me. "No, thank you! Am good." I replied quickly.

He tried to lighten the mood but my thoughts were still going back to that ugly memory. I turned my gaze to look at the sky to shake off the dreadful feeling. My sight travelled out of the window and I faintly heard birds singing gracefully in the sky. They were flying off to their respective jobs.

I smiled looking at the birds flying freely. I just stared at them singling so carefree enjoying the morning breeze.

Nature was something that gave peace to my racing mind. The beauty in the simple things helped me forget the scary thoughts building inside me.
