Chapter 60
-LANA-
I couldn’t believe my eyes
Apollo was actually here. He was standing in front of ine
It made no sense–how could he be here when he should still be in his hometown!
How did he get here so fast!
I couldn’t even begin to think about how I looked to him. My hair was a mess, my checks stained with tears, and my lips were dry had spent hours crying, tormented by the thought of him marrying someone else–especially a woman as perfect as Jada. I felt completely adequate next to her
He was breathing heavily, and the bruises on his fingers hinted that he must have shifted into his wolf form and run for hours to reach me
That would explain why I didn’t hear his car pull up. He didn’t use his car. He ran here.
Hissomber gaze took in my appearance, and I didn’t even attempt to hide how much was suffering. Every part of me ached, especially my heart. Oh how much heart ached. If he could see into my chest, he would see how bruised it was aber that phone call between us.
I wanted him for myself. The thought of him with anyone else was unbearable. I don’t think Apollo had the slightest dle of how much it hurt me knowing he would spend his life with someone else
Somehow, he looked even more dashing tonight than I had ever seen him before I couldn’t explain it, but it gnawed at me to know that
had seen
him like this first. The jealousy welling up in my heart was hard to ignore. I was beginning to realize that these feelings inside were no longer controllable. Thad lost control over my own body and it was all because of this man standing in front of me.
I didn’t know how long we stood there, locked in a gaze, both of us breathless for entirely different reasons.
I could tell he noticed my tears, my swollen eyes were a dead giveaway
What made him come? Did he leave his dinner once more to rush to my aid? If he did, I knew the guilt would increase. I didn’t meant to cause problems for him, I simply just needed to hear his voice and confirm for myself what was taking place
What was I supposed to say? I had already pointed out that I knew he planned on getting married to Jada eventually. And part of me knew he was only doing it for his mother’s happiness.
But what about my happiness? Did he not care how this would affect me his true mate? Why couldn’t his mother want him to be with the one he was truly meant to be with, rather than the woman she had chosen?
Why
y didn’t he give her the chance to accept me before taking such a huge decision? My sister’s words repeat in my head, a reminder that his mother may never accept me and that was why my mate didn’t bother trying to change her mind.
“What are you doing here?” I finally managed to ask, my voice cracking as if I had lost a part of myself.
He didn’t answer. I’m completely lost in his eyes, unable to look away from his penetrating gaze as he walked toward me, forcing me to step back. My breath hitched when he shut the door behind him
Why can’t stop staring? Surely, this is not good for my mental health, I could feel myself begin to shake uncontr
My eyes widened as I heard the lock click
Why would he lock it?
I didn’t know how to react.

“What are you do
I didn’t get to finish my question as he wrapped his arms around my waist, paling my body against his
1 gasped, my heart racing wildly in response.
I could hear the pounding in my car as he leans lower so that our
lips were now inches apart.
I’m dying for this. For him to kiss me. Ever since our last kiss, I have been dreaming of the next chance for him to touch me again,
We both reach for the kiss at the exact same time. I felt sparks go off around us as out lips finally touch. Apollo kisses me like I’m the last woman on earth and again I’m envious of the many women that got the chance to kiss these lips.
Why couldn’t they just belong to me? And why was he even considering being with someone else when we had such a strong connection?
He growls agai
ainst my n mouth and in that moment, I stop thinking about anything else other than his lips on mine.
He pushes me down on my bed and climbs on top of me, never once breaking our kiss.
One of his hand is in my hair while the other is sliding up my legs. I had on a short night dress which made it easy for him.
I shiver against his touch. My body reacts to him almost immediately,
He breaks the kiss and growls against my neck. I know he can smell my arousal but I don’t care. I want him to know what he does to my body. I want him to feel everything that I do.
“Your scent.” He says in a hoarse voice as he buries his nose between my breasts. I can’t fucking think about anything else when your arousal hits my
nose.
I gasp at his words and feel my body respond as I press my legs together tightly.
“No.” He growls as he pushes them apart. “Fucking spread those legs Lana. I need you to.”
He needs me to?
I want to cry out at the intense emotions I felt because of his words and actions. He had no clue what he was doing to me.
I can hardly breathe when he lowers his body so that his mouth is now directly above my panties.
What was he doing down there?
My ass raises off the bed when he buries his mouth there before I have a chance to stop him
Dh.
That feeling
My cheeks are red and my fingers are gripping my sheets tightly.
Suddenly, I want him to rip my panties off me. I didn’t want anything between us. I wanted to feel his tongue–where were these erotic thoughts. comme from?
