Chapter 98
The tears weren’t stopping anytime soon, no matter how she tried, and it was only pouring down from her eyes. She had cried so much that she had even forgotten the reason she was crying.
But she had never felt so pathetic.
After everything and all the promises never to go back here, she was back in Kane’s pack and even taking on the role of a Luna; her parents must be rolling in their graves seeing her frolicking with the enemy, and the thoughts pained her.
Nothing could improve her mood, and she remained gloomy throughout the day and had laid down on the bed, just feeling pathetic for herself.
And somehow, time had run until the door slowly opened and Kane entered inside.
“Ariel.” He growled as he stepped inside, marching towards where she lay. “I thought we had gone over this before; I don’t care what happened between us, but you are not going to starve yourself.”
Ariel rose up her head to look at him, and Kane caught sight of her red eyes, and he was rushing to her side.
“Ariel, what happened? Why are they crying? Did anyone hurt you?” Ariel almost scoffed at the fake concern she was hearing in his voice.
He was the one that hurt her first before anybody, but she shook her head, refusing to answer him.
“Is it about Liza?” Kane continued, his worries growing as he searched all over his mate, and Ariel’s head snapped back to look at him.
“How did you know about Liza?” She asked, sniffing her nose, and Kane smiled, happy he had gotten her to react.
“It is my pack; I know everything that is going on. Do you want me to help you talk to Liza? I would tell her I was the one at fault.” But Ariel shook her head; she didn’t want him to interfere, and even if he did, it wasn’t going to work anyway.
“What can I do to make it better? I hate seeing you like this.” This time Ariel rolled her eyes. He was one that got her into this mess.Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
“Just leave me alone, please.” She sighed, and she shifted on the bed till she was at the edge of the bed.
“Ariel, you can’t continue like this. How can I get you to forgive me? I know I fucked up, I ki-” Kane took a deep breath, unable to bring himself to say the words. “I know I did that to your parents, and I can’t even begin to tell you how sorry I am. But I think you should cut me some slacks.”
“I should cut you some slacks?” Ariel’s laugh was bitter, but her eyes flashed in anger. “You killed my parents in cold blood, you murdered my pack, and you kidnapped me, and as if it wasn’t worse, you lied to me about everything until I had to find out the truth!”
“And I have apologized to you!” Kane snapped. “What more do you want me to do?”
“You are impossible!” Ariel yelled, throwing her hands up in frustration. “I don’t even know why I am still here; I should have stabbed you in your sleep or something.” And she stormed out of bed to go to the bathroom, but Kane blocked her path.
“Why didn’t you do it then? You have been having a lot of opportunities; surely it wouldn’t be so hard to kill me.” His words were like mockery to her, and it was impossible to ignore it.
Ariel twisted her lips to the side; everything he had said was the truth, and she had no idea how to deny it. “Get out of my way!”
“Just admit it, you still harbor feelings for me, and that is why you followed me home and why you are still here.”
“Kane, get out of my way right now!” Ariel’s eyes were ablaze with fury, and her fists were clenched as she was trying to keep the lid on.
“And what are you going to do if I don’t?” Kane leaned towards her, his mouth so close to her skin that she could feel the warm air as he talked.
And in that moment, something changed between them; the air was charged with some kind of electricity that she hadn’t experienced before, and it only needed a spark to light it up.
“Kane.” Ariel growled, and she held him by his collar.
“Ariel.” Kane’s voice was like a warning, and he looked into her eyes, then his gaze fell to her lips, and he wetted his lips.
All this time, Ariel was looking at him, watching him watch her, and she could feel all her nerve endings on fire.
Kane’s eyes devoured hers, his pupils dilating with hunger as he drew closer, and Ariel’s heart raced, her throat moving as she swallowed.
But it was Kane that broke the distance.
He leaned closer, claiming her lips in a passionate embrace. His touch sent shockwaves down her spine, igniting a spark in her that she never thought she would experience again, and she sighed in bliss.
Kane’s hands wrapped around her waist, pulling her close as he deepened the kiss, taking everything she had to offer. She had long loosened her hand, and it had fallen to his chest, and she let her hands roam about, exploring his body like she had always wanted.
With every minute they spent kissing, Ariel found herself melting into him, her body arching against his as she surrendered to him.
Their lips moved in perfect sync, their hands getting more daring as they continued exploring each other, touching and fondling.
“Kaneee.” Ariel’s mouth opened slightly in a moan, her head thrown back in passion. Their kiss was getting more intense, more desperate, his hardon poking her stomach, and she ground herself to him, loving the sparks she was feeling.
Ariel’s hands tangled in Kane’s hair, holding him close as she lost herself in the desire. She didn’t want to think about how wrong it felt yet how right it felt to be in his arms.
She hooked one leg around his waist, wanting to be near him, and she continued grounding herself to him.
But they reluctantly parted from the kiss for the need of air, and they stared at each other, their chests rising and falling as they tried to catch their breath.
Their lips were red and swollen from the kiss, and they were still glistening from saliva. Kane gazed at her lips, wanting nothing more than to ravish her.
But he looked at her, a question in those eyes as if to ask her if she was sure.
Ariel licked her lips, the lusting haze clearing from her eyes, and she nodded her head in response. She was just going to allow herself this moment of weakness, and she would think of the consequences later.
And this time, she was the one that connected their lips.
