Chapter 31：The Ex- Part 1 (1/2)

Ruka's POV:

When I got up early in the morning, I saw Eve sleeping peacefully. I tightened my hold on her and nuzzled her hair. After such a long time, I felt contentment.

It was wrong of me to behave like that last night but I could not help it, seeing Aiden kiss her I felt a rush of possessiveness overcome me. I was feeling possessive over her as each day passed by; whenever I could, I would drop and pick her up from her school wanting to be around her. I sighed thinking about it.

It was cute to see her getting close to me little by little when she was the one who put the distance when we got into bed last night. She was such an adorable thing that I wanted to cuff her hand with mine so I could be with her all the time.

I closed my eyes and heard her steady heartbeat which was music to my ears. I wanted to turn her after a few months but after she turned eighteen her happiness was mine and if she wanted to stay human for a few years, I would let her. I would stand by her and protect her.

I heard my doorknob turn and saw Megan enter.

”What is she doing here!” she shrieked out looking at Eve and me in bed.

Eve woke abruptly sitting up, her eyes opened and saw Megan standing at the door fuming. First of all, what was Megan doing in my room this early in the morning and secondly I had never given her permission to enter my room.

A few centuries back we did hook up but it was nothing serious. If it weren't for her father being a Viscount she wouldn't have the privilege to stay here for even a day. No matter how nice or harshly I put it across her that it was just a onetime thing she did not get it. It was time to make a clear point.

I looked at Eve whose eyes were wide and she then looked up to me. I leaned in and gave her lips a lingering kiss. The door of my room closed indicating Megan had left. Pulling back I grinned making Eve narrow her eyes.

”Megan knows now,” she said worriedly.

”She doesn't,” I assured her, ”She thinks we made out not that we are mates.”

”But she will get to know by seeing this,” she said pointing her neck. I leaned down and kissed the mark I had given her, she shuddered.

”Then let her,” I replied to her and peppered kisses on her neck.

”She will give me a hard time,” she said biting her bottom lip unconsciously.

”She won't, trust me,” I told her, ”Go back to sleep now, love. We have a lot of things to do for today.”

”What is it?” she asked me curious her voice hinting an excitement as I pulled her back and rested my chin on her head.
