Chosen just to be Rejected (by Jennifer Francis) novel Chapter 112

112 Parker Hed lost the battle of wills with Vex during that kiss , because it wasnt just him that wanted to be close to her , it was also his beast who had a need to be close to her .

Theyd both wanted to hug her and kiss her the moment her eyes had opened but hadnt been able to , seeing as Whit and Milly were there .

Hed not have cared if theyd already worked things out , would have just gotten up and done it , but they were still not there .

She couldnt be with Freya attached to her, but hed told her everything , how he felt , even apologised for it because he couldnt hold himself to the spot any longer .

There was just something inside of him and his beast that couldnt be contained where she was concerned , and without Freya she had a better chance of understanding him , and maybe she might come to wanting him as well .

Hed not actually expected her to kiss him back , like she had , and it had made his heart race inside his chest .

The moment his lips had pressed against hers , his beast had been up inside his mind , and when shed parted her lips for him and kissed him back willingly , Vex had wanted control .

His beast had craved her always , now was no different , it seemed .

This , however , would be their first kiss without Freya stopping her from feeling anything .

Their first kiss with no contractual agreement that meant she felt obligated to let him kiss her or that she was to kiss him back .

She could pull away and say no , but she didnt .

Let him kiss her and kissed him back .

He wanted it to be loving and tender and thought that was what it was until Vex started to fight him for control .

Something she found amusing , and she hadnt stopped his beast from kissing her either , Vex had kissed the bloody hell out of her .

If she wasnt in this bed and post surgery , his wolf , he knew , would be looking to mate her right this very minute .

Parker could feel the desire in his beast , and he tried to settle his beast as he sat in that chair .

He even put some distance between them , because he thought it might be needed .

Better to be safe than sorry .

Vex was sitting inside his mind all attention , breathing her in even , liked the smell of her .

Shed always smelled invigorating to them and still did .

He sat and opened that chocolate bar and found Milly right there looking at it .

Your favourite ? he asked and she nodded .

He picked her up and put her on his lap , and took a piece of the chocolate for himself and handed her the rest .

Ill share .

He told her and distracted himself from his wolfs attention from being all on Belladonna , by pretending to try and eat the entire chocolate bar while Milly held on to it .

She squealed and squirmed and wriggled off his lap to run off with it .

He chuckled softly ; she was adorable , and he smiled at Belladonna when he realised she was watching him play with her daughter .

How she was now okay with him and how easily they were getting along .

He thought her daughter had bonded with him in the past 24 hours .

Something he was happy about , because he was hoping shed look at him like a dad at some point , was young enough to call him that as well , if he and Belladonna could come together , and they all became a family .

He ushered both Whit and Milly out of the room when he noticed Belladonna starting to get tired .

She needed to rest and they were keeping her awake .

Hed had Annette sit and explain to both Whit and Milly , mostly for Millys sake , about Belladonna needing to be in the hospital for a few days , up to seven , shed told them ..

Explained to Milly now that shed seen her mother was alive and alright , that Belladonna would also be very tired for a few days .

Shed had surgery to fix a couple of broken bones , and that was why she was in the hospital .

Hed had dumbed it down a lot for Milly , but she seemed to get it .

Hed then sat down with them and brought up where they were going to stay while Belladonna was in the hospital .

It wasnt set up for that .

She also did need proper rest as well , and he didnt think shed want him staying there either , likely to make her a bit uncomfortable .

Ive not discussed it with your mum yet , but I do think you should both come and stay with me … Or I should stay with you at your house .

We cant just sleep in her hospital room every night and I dont really think its appropriate for me to just have someone else look after you , when I am here , and can do it myself , he explained .

So , the question is , if your mums okay with it , are you two okay with either staying with me or me living with you until your mum is given the all clear ? he asked .

Whit just nodded , but then looked at Milly .

He didnt think Whit would have an issue being that he was his dad , but Milly hadnt been until last night .

He was hoping she was going to be okay with it , and it would give him a chance to be around them 24/7 and be a proper dad to not only Whit but Milly too ; something he wanted .
