Chapter 516
Talk yourself out of this one girl
I actually want to fucking see how I manage this one.
Breathing deeply, I try to calm myself
I still For a moment allowing myself to enjoy the embrace, which feels so safe. I've never felt this safe in my life. From the very first day that Gerard took my hand and promised me a better life with a smile on his face, I never felt safe.
He smells good too, a sexy masculine scent that relaxes me, and his back is as firm as those delicious abs.
Ok, enough time wasted, I don't have an excuse that will let me out of this one. I'm just going to have to hope he doesn't mock me
Fuck
I pull back and he instantly loosens his hold. I hate how this prick is earning some damn points when it comes to respecting my wishes.
"Don't say anything," I warn quietly, looking into those eyes. Eyes full of concern.
He nods, but I don't want to add anything because I don't have it in me to argue about this shit.
I'm about to turn away when he cups my face with one hand as he searches my face, looking for something. My hair is all over the place and his gaze lingers on the scar that runs across my cheek and he gently brushes his thumb down it, lightly brushing the corner of my lips.
A dangerous move that wants me to open my mouth and lick it.
But no matter how carefully I search his eyes, there's no disgust there... Did I imagine it the other day?
'I really want to say something. May 1?'
I can't help but smile as he asks me that through the mind-link. "Fine, just remember, if they piss me off, I will kick those family jewels of yours."
"Fair enough. They belong to you anyway. So, what I wanted to say was..." He quickly brushes off the comment he just made, despite making my heart go crazy again. "If you want me to stop from doing what I want to right now... you're going to have to tell me now..." he steps closer, almost chest to chest as he combs his fingers through my hair, his gaze dipping to my lips
He wants to kiss me...
My heart thunders as he leans down, his heart beating loudly. His gaze flickers to my eyes as if making sure he can continue. I don't move. What harm would one kiss do? I mean, it's just one kiss, nothing more
His minty breath fans my face and I tilt my head slightly upwards. But just then his phone rings loudly, making me blink
and take a small step back, but he's still holding my face.

He pauses, but then seems to have made the decision to ignore it when suddenly he steps back, his eyes widening Was he mind-linked by one of his men who had accompanied him here? He quickly whips out his phone
"Sorry, my men said it's urgent I checked my..." he trails off answering the phone. "Hello?"Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
"Alpha, Alpha, I'm sorry, but we were barely halfway to the pack when the patient went into cardiac arrest. We've tried to resuscitate her for the last 20 minutes, but she's gone. We're sorry, Alpha."
Patient?
No name needs to be spoken. Atticus's eyes now turn to me screaming the answer to my question.
I shake my head, my hands trembling as I try not to react.
"Tell me it's not her..." I whisper.
"I'm sorry, Adriana. With her health deteriorating, we decided to surprise you by bringing her to you today. I can assure you extreme care was taken"
Ada
My baby sister.
"I'm sorry, she's gone."
1 turn and break into a run.
"Adriana!"
No. No. NO!
The moment I'm out of the door, I shift into my wolf as I run as fast as I can. I need to get to her. This can't be true. I can't lose Ada, she's all the family I have.
Please, Goddess, don't take my Ada away from me.
Please.
I am begging you.
