Fate's Dark Side Chapter 467

"It wasn't intentional; I just wasn't prepared for this. You came a bit too soon for me. Everything is fresh in my mind as if it were yesterday, and I am still trying to sort it through." He confessed.

"I can't wait for you because I know I will wait forever," I said quietly, and he held me tighter.

"Please, Amelia, I am willing to try with you. I will be a fool not to.

The weeks you have been with me have been amazing. I have laughed more than I did in a while. I have gone to bed happy," he said and pulled away to look into my eyes.

"It was wrong of me to reject our bond, but I do not regret it. I got to know you without my wolf's interference and I am choosing to try now. It has been hard controlling myself around you. I have held my feelings at a safe distance, but today, I realised I was only fooling myself," He said, and I searched his eyes to see if he was serious.

"I did not want you to go to town with anyone other than me. I was restless all through," He said, running his finger through his hair.

"Skinny or not, you are a beautiful woman. Your eyes are perfect. They remind me of the full moon at night. That is why I call you Moonlight sometimes.

Seeing you cover them up got to me. And I am sorry about how I reacted. But I can't let you leave, not without trying. Deep down, I feel it is right, but I am afraid of losing myself again and messing everything up," he said, and I placed my hand on his cheek.

"Then let us worry about that together instead of pushing me away," I told him, searching his eyes for a response.

He searched mine too. His lips moved a bit, but no sound came from them. Then he crashed his lips on mine, lifting me up, and I wrapped my legs around him.

His earthy scent filled my senses, intoxicating me, and I closed my eyes because everything was spinning.

He moved from my lips to my neck and sucked on my sweet spot. No touch had ever felt good, but Leo's touch felt like heaven.

He carried me back to my bedroom, and I was suddenly nervous when he laid me on my bed.

He noticed and broke the kiss to look at me. He searched my eyes, and I knew I had fear in them.

"What is wrong?" He asked me gently, his face inches from mine, and I did not know how to tell him I wasn't intact.

"I .. I.." I started out of fear, and he gently got off me and sat on the bed. I sat up, trying to catch my breath.

"It is okay if you are uncomfortable telling me," He said, and I touched his shoulder. He turned to look at me.

"I want to tell you, but I do not know how you will see me after," I said, confessing the real reason I was tongue-tied.

"Surviving on the streets has been hard, and Kappas aren't kind to helpless wolves," I said, and his eyes faltered. I guess he had figured it out now. My hatred for Kappa and cells.

He touched my face gently and kissed my forehead.

"You have no reason to be ashamed, Moonlight. I still want to try regardless," he said, and I was shocked.

I remembered what he told his friend Kyle the first day I started work in his house, and I could not believe he did not share his opinion on the matter.

"I thought you told Alpha Kyle..." I said, and he chuckled.

"Some people share that opinion but not when it concerns matters of the heart. It blurs everything until the line disappears, Moonlight. I am surprised you ended up well, regardless of the challenges. I am also glad I gave you a job because you were not lying when you said all you needed was a job. You are strong," He said, and I felt the weight of being tainted lift from my chest, and I was a bit relaxed now. That bit was the only setback for me, and he had made me realise it didn't matter to him. I was happy.

"Do you mind removing the contacts?" He finally asked, and I laughed at the way he said it.

I went to the bathroom and took it out by the sink. He joined me when I had put the second lens in the container.

He wrapped his arms around me from behind and made me look in the mirror.

"You do not know how beautiful those eyes are," he said, and my cheeks coloured.

I felt a bit embarrassed by the gesture.

He lifted me from the bathroom and placed me back on the bed.

We might have missed the moment, but we had made some improvements, and I was looking forward to what would happen onwards.
