Chapter 46 - What A Night...

*****Maddison's POV*****

Coda and I were now finally up in my room after he had eventually worked up the effort to shower and change his clothes after his sweaty gym session.

He was currently wondering around my room picking up random stuff and just being nosey.

I couldn't blame him though since this was the first time that he had been in my room. I mean I was the exact same with his old room back in that hell hole...

"Are you done looking at all my things." I question, causing him to grin.

"I just like knowing more about you." He shrugs, before returning my now opened makeup bag back to my table.

"Okay so let's say we watch a quick movie together before my Father comes up here to kick you back to your own room." I laugh, as he comes over to sit beside me on the bed.

"Sure... but I want to talk to you first..." He states, causing me to nod slowly waiting for him to continue...

"Okay so first of all... it's about finding my Mom..." He trails off, as I perk up slightly to show him that he has my full attention now.

"Your birthday party is this Saturday which is only two days away... so on the Monday... your Father has agreed to come back to my old pack with me to investigate my father..." He explains slowly, giving me time to digest the information.

"That's great news! I'm glad he's going to go with you!" I smile, trying not to show how sad I am to be hearing that he's leaving for a few days.

I don't want Coda to leave me ever again...

"Yeah... but I would love it more if you would come with me? I don't think I'll be able to handle being back there without you by my side to help keep me sane..." He tells me, looking into my eyes for a reaction.

Yes!

He wants to take me with him!

Woohoo!

"My Father might not like that idea though..." I suddenly state, thinking that he might not even let me come along.

"I've already asked him... it took a bit of convincing but he finally understood where I was coming from and agreed to let you come... he's taking his best warriors and David the Beta so you will be well protected on the trip..." Coda assures me as I smile.

"Great! I'm so glad that I can come too! Cause not gonna lie... I kinda didn't want you to leave without me..." I smile as he automatically smiles back at my confession.

He suddenly reaches over to me, grabbing my waist firmly before pulling me over to sit on his lap.

I giggle at the action as he buries his head into my neck- inhaling my scent for a few seconds as he steadies his breathing to a much calmer pace.

This whole visiting his old pack thing must have him extremely worked up... I must admit... he's great at hiding it though... but I can tell he's more worried than what he lets off to everyone else.

"I can't explain how happy I am to be safe here with you..." He breathes, making my heart warm at his statement.

"Me too Coda... I thought for a second that my Father would have killed you... and that I wouldn't get the chance to see you again..." I say quietly, not wanting to think too much about losing him again.

"I know... but we are here now... it's over so we don't have to worry about Silvia ever again..." He coos me as I snuggle closer to his chest.

"You're perfect..." I whisper, causing him to tense slightly at my statement.

"I'm far from perfect baby girl..." He replies, causing me to shake my head in disagreement.

"No... You're perfect Coda. Perfect for me." I state firmly, as he tightens his hold around me lovingly.

"I love you." He whispers, kissing my ear softly.

"I love you too..." I instantly reply, not having to question myself with the words at all.

I did love him. Regardless of his mistakes and his past.

I loved him for the way he was...

"There was one last thing that I wanted to talk to you about..." He mumbles, placing a soft kiss on my cheek this time which causes the butterfly's to erupt yet again.

"What is it?" I ask, looking up at his face for an answer.

"I really want to mark you..." He confirms, causing me to tense slightly.

Don't ask why I was so damn nervous about being marked...

I was told that it would be painful at first but then I'd like it? I was told it would burn for a few days after until my body adapted to it? I was told I'd be able to read my mates thoughts and he would be able to read mine?

"I'm nervous about it if I'm honest..." I say softly, as he kisses my ear yet again.

This boy had me melting in his arms!

He makes me so giddy it is unreal!

"I don't want to mark you right now angel don't worry... I want to take you out on dates first, treat you the way you deserve to be treated... I have a lot of making up to do first before I can even consider giving you my mark... you deserve someone amazing and until I feel that I've lived up to your expectations then I refuse to mark you... I also need to make things up to your family for the pain that I caused them... I want them to trust me before I fully claim you as mine... all I want right now is... I just want for you to tell me that you want to be with me forever and that this isn't just some joke or something... I'm scared that I'll lose you and that my life will suddenly turn to shit again." He finishes, my eyes watering on their own accord from his little speech.

Woah.

"We will always be together Coda. I love you for the way you are... you already do live up to my expectations... I mean yeah you fucked up a little by taking me away from my home for a long time and pretending that I was a slave and all... but I do get why you did what you did and I don't blame you for it at all! If it wasn't for you taking me that day we wouldn't be here together... we wouldn't be this happy... let's sort out your old pack first and then we can discuss marking each other again yeah? Don't worry you won't ever lose me I'm here to stay." I state firmly, holding his sad face in my small hands to make sure he drinks in every word that I say.

"You truly are a God send Maddison..." He breathes, as I smile shyly at his words.

He wastes no time before attaching his lips to mine in a passionate kiss that I comply with.

It was magical to say the least.

Nothing compares to a kiss from your mate... nothing...

What a night...
