Chapter 30 " There's no one else , " I try to reassure him . .2 % +20 ) My body trembles the way it did the first time he kissed me as his tongue sweeps my neck . I gasp when his teeth scrape my skin and he sucks on the curve of my throat . I should be terrified out of my mind to be this close to this creature but my traitorous body isn't responding the way it should be . I go as far as letting my head fall back to give him better access . God , it feels like my skin is vibrating with his touch . Why is it that whenever he's around I turn into a fucking stupid teenage idiot ? " Good girl , " he growls kissing over my throat to mark the other side of my neck . When he's done , I'm just hanging on here trying to catch my breath . When he pulls away guilt is written all over his face . He looks down at what he did and pulls away letting go of me like my touch burns him . " Knight- " " I'm sorry . Shit , " he grips a handful of his hair panicking . " Hey, I'm okay , " I reach for him pulling his hands down . " I'm fine . Nothing bad happened , " " Are you okay ? " " I'm fine . Are you ? That looked painful , " I point at his neck . " I wasn't prepared for that , " he whispers reaching for me . " I - I've never had to think about it . He didn't bite you did he ? " " I mean not hard , " but there were a whole lot of scary teeth involved . He checks my neck and then looks at me concerned . I feel my face heat up . " What ? " " You- " he shakes his head . " You just let me do that to you , " I cover my mouth with both hands and burst into laughter . I can feel my face getting super hot . " How is this my fault ? " I choke out between laughs . He pulls me close and shakes his head . " You don't let anyone do that to you all the time , right ? " he whispers . The tone is empty . He knows the answer , but he needs to hear me say it . " I haven't let anyone touch me since- " I say it so lowly . I clear my throat to say it better , but when I look up at me he's staring back at me . " Why not ? " he asks . There's a smug look on his stupid beautiful face . " You're- " god , he has the fucking ego of a jackass . That's going to be a problem . " You're ? " he presses . " Why are you being a dick ? I've been nothing but nice to you , " I sigh . " Tell me ," he insists . " And then I can take you and our kids for some ice cream ," " For future reference , that's not an even trade . But I'm scared that you might hurt my assinstant and he's what people in his community refer to as a twink ," that seems to make him happier somehow . " You're kind of a tough act to follow . It never felt right . Holding someone's hand . The way they spoke to me . How their lips felt on mine . It was all wrong . I'm not the kind of person that says fuck it and settles ," When I look up into his pretty jade eyes again , he gently leans in to kiss me . His lips softly brush against mine and my head swims . We're pressed up against the corner again . I almost scream when the intercom turns on . Reality comes crashing down and I feel like a dumbass . " Is everything okay in there ? " someone asks through the speaker . " Everything is fine , " he answers . " Releasing the E - brake , " 1/3 2 % Chapter 30 " Okay , " the voice laughs . I cover my mouth feeling my face get super hot again . " What is it with you and elevators ? " he asks . " Me ? This is all your fault , " I've never had any kind of weird situation with elevators until he showed up . " I'll only take like a fourth of the responsibility , " he says and turns around to press the red button again . He hits the top floor and the elevator starts to move again . " A fourth ? Why ? All of this is on you , " " You're standing here in this long fitted skirt , wearing whatever the fuck this is , " he motions my corset top . " Looking as beautiful as you do expecting me to behave . Me , the rockstar with an army of fangirls who do whatever I say as I say it , " " Well , " I push him away and fix myself up . " Maybe call one of them up and have them explain to you that you are a fucking asshole . Thank you for ruining that moment , " The doors ping open and I walk out . " Phoebe , " he calls after me , humor lacing his fucking tone . " Angel , " " Don't , " I stop putting my hand up . He almost walks into me . " Just don't ," " How the hell did you manage to turn this on me ? " he sighs . " I didn't do anything . You did , " I spin back around and walk into my office . I am more than embarassed already and I can clearly see people trying really hard not to stare at us . " Ice cream ? " Ayrie jumps up . " Yeah . Come on , " I wave them over . Cevin stands up to address him . " Alpha Blake . I am so sorry . I didn't mean to come off that way . I'm mated . Your Luna and I are just very good friends , " he explains . " I assure you , it won't happen again , " " Good , " Knightly nods . " I'm going to hold you to that promise , " " Mommy , you have ouchies , " Ayrie says pushing my hair back . " What happened ? " " Momma ? " Aizen looks up at me . What the hell am I doing letting that idiot get away with so much ? " I wasn't paying attention and I hurt myself with the curling iron , " the lie feels fucking filthy coming out of my mouth , and I bury my stupid lying face in Ayrie's belly while she hugs my head . " Silly , Mommy . Be careful , " she giggles patting my head . " You're actually done for today , Mama . Get some rest , " Cevin laughs . " Alpha Blake , " " Wheeler , " he dismisses him . Cevin walks out of my office but not before spinning around to point finger guns and mouthing pew pew as he goes . Ayrie sees him and giggles covering her mouth . " Are we leaving ? " Aizen asks . " We are . Just let me grab my stuff , " I say and set Ayrie down . I go to my desk to get my things together . Then i go over to my drawing table to get a scart , " Those are there for a reason , " Knightly tries to stop me . 2/3 16.45 སཾ ཏཱི 2 % * Chapter 30 " Yeah , because I'm a silly - silly careless girl when you're around , " I say tying it around my throat to cover the marks . " Phoebe , " he warns . " Knightly , " I put my hands on my hips . " If you feel the need to tell someone what to do , address your army of fangirls . I'm sure they would love to give you whatever it is you want , " " No , " Ayrie smacks his legs . He looks down at her . " No , bad daddy , " " What did I do ? " he asks . " No , girl fans , " she smacks him again . " My daddy . Mine , " " Yeah ," he smiles for her and lifts her up . " I got it , " he says looking up at me . " No fangirls . That's not something you need to tell me and I apologize for bringing it up , " " That's not how you apologize to me , " I say picking Aizen up . " She doesn't get that easy - to - forgive thing from me . That's all you , " " Noted , " he chuckles . " What kind of ice cream do you think Mommy likes , pretty girl ? " " Mommy doesn't like ice cream ," Aizen answers . " She likes frozen yogurt with whip cream and fresh strawberries , " " Perfect . I know a place , " " J'adore le yogourt glacé , " Ayrie kicks out her little legs . " I am going to have to learn French aren't I ? " he asks her . " Oui , " she nods and hugs him . " That , I understood ," he rubs her back gently . " Je t'apprendrai , daddy , " she taps his face . " I teaches you if you teaches me better American , " " You got it , pretty girl, " 3/3
