Book Chapter65
Just A Nudge
The tension is so heavy at my table, tongues are talking, tense through gritted teeth. Chairs squeak as we shift positions suncomfortably, trying our best to get comfortable.
I am unable to stop myself from looking at Kennedy, up close and personal. I’m just trying to see what she has that I don’t possess.
What’s so special about her?
“Stop staring at me.” She doesn’t look me in the eyes as she opens her mouth for Cash to put the spoon to her lips. She takes what he offers, except I am the one who provided all of this. I hate the way the metal clinks against the porcelain bowl. I can’t look away as he takes another spoonful, blowing on it before putting it up for her to take another bite of my food.
Cash gives me just the slightest glare. I still don’t turn my eyes from her. Ijust can’t stop staring. The way her lips are full and thick, the way her hair falls in soft curls around her face, the way her chest gently rises and falls with each breath. I just can’t stop wondering
about this female What makes her so much more than me?
“If you don’t stop, I’ll make you!? Now her eyes are on mine. My wolf is excited by her threat
Dallas hashishand on my back, rubbing in a calming, circular motion. It works, slightly.
This is a nightmare come true for me. I would have never predicted this, ever. Kennedy sharing my food at my table. The next thing is me helping her ease a pup into the world. I won’t be able to do that. I can’t be expected to do that.
Already I can detect just the faint change in her scent; the way she smells is ripe. She will have to start changing her panties regularly now. Her body is producing more fluids for her male to smell Instinct and hormones are at play that can’t be controlled. Her mind will rebel, but her body is full steam ahead. Cash will become a force to be reckoned with as her heat progresses. Aggression takes over. A need to mate and produce offspring will be all–consuming to the both of them. Enemies becoming one in an age–old dance.
How will she feel after this? How will she meet her lover’s eyes when she has her mate’s pup in her belly?
Love is hard
Almock on the door has me greeting Luna Grace and her Silverback male. He’s something else as I let my eyes travel the length of him.
He’s sophisticated, well–aged with a look that he can belong anywhere he desires. You make room for him and adjust to him and his
spasu
He smiles toward me as I try to get myself under control. The wolf in mewants to stare at his eyes, a compulsion so great that I can’t pull away. She thinks she is her equal and doesn’t want to turn tail toward him.
“Rya, enough.” His voice is deep, with a slight menace of threat below the layers.
Luna Grace, watching the interaction, says nothing, just observes her male and myself.
Dallas is quick to stand beside me with an am around my shoulder. His body just angles slightly in front of mine, protectively. He pushes me very smoothly behind him. His father laughs slightly, and the mother gives him such a sweet look as if to say, “That’s my boy.”
“It smells so good in here, Rya. Is that soup you made?” Luna Grace steps inside. She’s looking around. Her eyes never stay on any one spot for too long
“Are you hungry?I have lots left.”
“That would be wonderful.” They take a seat at the end of the table as Dallas sits at the head with me on the right.
“How are you two doing?” Luna Grace is all smiles, waiting patiently for one of them to answer.
“How do you think we’redoing?” Cash spits out.
The alpha’s big paw of a hand lands on his son’s shoulder; he’s showing teeth. “No need to speak like that to your mother.”
“I didn’t mean for it to come out that way. I apologize.” Cash’s voice is very soft now. Kennedy doesn’t look at anyone; she just keeps her head down, trying to hide behind the curtain of hair.
Putting the bowls in front of Dallas’s parents, I’m feeling very awkward. “Bya, do you have bread? This would go very good with
bread.” She dips her spoon into the soup without scraping the side of the bowl. She eats silently.
Taking a deep breath I get her the bread she wants.
“Kennedy, would you like a piece of bread?” Luna Grace says.
“No.” She says the word very l
y low in her throat Cash rubs her back as she shakes slightly.
The relief I feel inside me is beyond heaven. Never would I break bread with that fernale.
I feel as if I’m just waiting for an implosion to happen.
When Kennedy lifts her eyes up, they are of a she–wolf who wants to tear into something. My nails bite into the palms of my closed fists,
