Revenge to the Alpha Mate novel Chapter 61

Chapter 61: Chapter 61

"I didn’t do anything I just told him to find his own mate to worry about when he flipped about me marking you"

I sighed, that explained it. I looked at Jacob who nodded

"We’ll talk about the marking later Ethan don’t you dare think we’re okay" I said sending him a glare "I’ll be back"

"Oh my god Ethan you’re going to be punished" I heard Dave say

"yeah she’s gonna love spanking your sexy ass" Jim added and I turned and glared at them 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎

"Excuse me?" I said putting on my most scary face, the twins gulped

"N-nothing?" Jim said and I smirked

"Thought so"

I walked upstairs and stopped at Adrian’s room. I knocked but no one answered so I sighed before opening the door.

The curtains were closed and Adrian was sitting on the edge of his unused bed with something in his hands, I already knew what it was.

"Adrian" I said quietly walking towards him and sitting beside him "I can ask if you’re okay but I already know the answer"

Adrian chuckled and kept staring at the scarf in his hands "Yeah I guess you do" he sighed burying his face in his hands "I just miss her so much"

I bit my lip, it killed me to see Adrian this way. "I know you do."

"I think you’re the only one that gets how painful it is to stay away from your mate for so long Lily. It’s driving me crazy. I can’t sleep without dreaming about her, I keep on worrying that something has happened to her. I don’t know a thing about her and it’s all my fault"

"No it’s not" I said with determination "Look at me Adrian" he kept his head down "I said look at me"

He looked and I was taken back by the unshed tears in his eyes. I sighed and hugged him "She was human, she didn’t know you were mates. Maybe she had a good reason to leave you didn’t do anything wrong"

Adrian smiled weakly and pulled back before gesturing to the scarf "Her scent on it isn’t as strong anymore. I guess three years does that" he shook his head lightly "Pretty soon I won’t have anything left, not her scent, not a picture. Just this"

I looked at him for a moment, hesitant. Could I really give him another chance? What if it was just a game to him? What if I get hurt again? damn it there was a lot of what ifs and I was scared. I didn’t want to get hurt. But he looked so sincere and he really has been trying. Could there actually be a chance for me to be with my mate?

"One chance Ethan. That’s all i’m giving you. One mistake and..."

"YES" He jumped, taking me with him and hugging me "I swear I won’t disappoint you Lily" he put me down and kissed my forehead "Be ready tomorrow at eight, I’m taking you on our first date"

I nodded, feeling nothing but afraid and maybe a little doubtful about my choice of giving him a chance. But now that he marked me it meant the tingles would only get worse until we mate, it meant I couldn’t be with another person and it meant that it’ll be double the pain of when he rejected me if he ever hurt me again.

I sighed and threw myself on the bed. I needed to get my mind off of things, I smiled as the perfect idea came to mind

"Training" i said getting up to put no some clothes to work out before telling the others to get ready.

Lily’s P.O.V.

The training definitely took my energy because when I woke up the next day I was aching everywhere, a weird sensation since training didn’t usually cause me to be this sore. I groaned and sank back to the sheets but couldn’t get back to sleep.
