CHAPTER 34

CHAPTER THIRTY FOUR
I groaned, feeling like somebody dropped a stack of needles inside my head and now they were poking every inch of my head. Before I could get past the pain, light blinded my eyes as I groaned, covering my face.

“Good morning Nadia,”

Collins?

I sat up quickly but almost regretted immediately at the pain spinning through my head muscles. Ugh! Why the hell did it hurt that bloody much? As though that was not something much to worry about already, I felt the warm sunlight rays on my skin and I realized I was fucking naked. I mean, my bra and panties were still intact but still I was naked.

“What the hell happened?” I muttered, taking in the familiar surroundings.

Collin’s bedroom.

How did he manage to pull a look so dashing and enticing with a messy hair, grey slacks and a matching wife beater?

“Well, one minute we were going on so well, you had your lips on me, legs wrapped around my waist so firmly and I’m hell sure If I had reached down to that cookie, you’d be dripping. I thought I was finally getting you under me after so many days of dreaming about it then my ex-wife happened. When I came out to find you, you were nowhere to be seen and well, Miss Heathers told me you went out but I should stay away from you. For a mere mortal, that woman could be so frightening,”

“And from the looks of it, you did the opposite. Wait, what exactly happened? How did you find me because honestly my head hurts when I try to remember what happened after I left this house,”

“I could not just stay and lazy around without knowing you are safe. My wolf would not even let me take a breather. You must have grown so much on him too. So I figured, you’d have probably gone to a club or something and well, being a werewolf is really a perk. It was so easy to track you to a club, completely drunk out of your mind. So I brought you back,” he explained, pushing his palms into his slack pockets but it was hard not to notice his arms flexing at that small movement. Why was the world so fucking unfair giving him such a drool worthy body? I wanted to fucking hate him and his kind but when I was around him, my body was betraying me.

“So to be clear, nothing actually happened between us and that is a relief of sort. I tend to say and do stupid things when I’m drunk,” I said, wincing a bit at the pain I felt in my nerves at the restraint of talking.

“I would not call wanting to suck off my dick stupid,” he smirked.

“What?” Oh God! Drinking had not been an admittedly great idea but what was I supposed to do when it was like my entire life had been all a lie? Since I got to this town, it had been just one shock after another and I was beginning to question if Nadia was even my real name. Of course I was not being literal about the last part.

“Oh yeah. You would not shut up about how much you want me between your lips. It was so much of a …turn-on. If you hadn’t passed out on the back of my car, I would have probably had to jerk off,” I felt color rise on my cheeks, the thought of his jerking off, painting a dirty image in my brain.

“Um…well…I was drunk,” Very lame.

“Yeah, for someone who is a fiancée to someone else, it felt like I had a better claim to you than that William guy,”

“Well, I have no idea how you know William but we are not together anymore,”

“That is interesting,” he leaned down,” So how’s the hangover?”

“It doesn’t hurt anymore but I need an explanation as to why I’m naked on your bed,” I pointed out, stepping off the bed. Majorly it was because, every time he was that close to me, I always became a mess on the inside. It was more of my ovaries.

“Hmm…what can I say? I could not resist a good look at that...” he trailed off, his gaze caressing every inch of me,” That magnificent body. Oh sweet heavens. You were made for me,” he muttered so sinfully, lust grazing the pupil of his eyes.

“Um…so you are a pervert?” I narrowed my eyes, ignoring the ripples of excitement shooting through my body.

“Don’t worry Nadia. You just threw up all over your dress, “He chuckled deeply then walked into his closet.

I glanced around, trying to find my dress but it was nowhere to be seen. That was when it all came rushing into my memory. Mrs. Heathers had said something about some guy named Drake and that I was his promised mate. I chuckled under my breath at that.

“Mate,” I scoffed. Having a chosen mate seemed an old fashion thing of the past where your parents had to choose your husband for you. Who even does that anymore? But they are werewolves anyway and if the countless novels and TV shows have taught me a thing or two, the paranormal world was full of surprises. You could never keep up with it.

“Here, this should do for a while. Actually, you know what? Let me help you in this,” Collins said, pulling a light blue dress shirt over me delicately.

He was too close for comfort and he clearly enjoyed teasing me, taking into consideration the way his fingers ‘accidentally’ brushed against my bare stomach. A flash of hot energy sped through me as I cussed mentally.

“If you are done, can I now go see my friend down in your basement and also call my other friend so she would not panic and think we left Woodcave without her,” I said hastily just as he finished buttoning up the shirt.

He stepped back, a satisfied look on his face,” There, you look…delicious now,”

I was about to open my lips and probably say something mean but the door flung open, the Ethan guy who had made it absolutely clear that he doesn’t like me, rushing in. His gaze briefly fell on my underdressed state but then he ignored me.

“What the fuck are you doing bagging into my room like that Ethan?” Collins snapped, his expression quickly morphing into one of obvious anger.

“Save you anger for what I’m about to tell you Collins and I’m sorry if I disrupted something here,”

“Then speak the fuck up,” One thing I had gathered about Collins so fare was that he was an extremely impatient man. Though he did seem a little patient around me.

“One sentinel is down,”

“What?”

“Killed the same way as the other three and the same message stuck on him. I’ve sent messengers to see if the other packs have gone through same thing. We need to find this assassin before he completely wipes the entire packs,”

What was going on?
