Chapter 150
I feel him press a gentle kiss to my hair before his arms encircle my waist and tug me onto his lap. His forest colored eyes have dulled in sadness, making my heart ache at the sight of him. Green eyes stare directly into the windows of my grey ones, as if picking apart my entire being, leaving me raw and vulnerable. My eyes flutter shut of their own accord when his fingers trail across my cheek before they tuck my hair behind my ear. His hand find the back of my neck and pulls me down so that our foreheads press together, eyes shut, breathing even, hearts racing.
"I fucking love you." He finally states, voice thick with emotion. "I love you so much that it - it hurts sometimes but, it's so good."
"I love you too...so much that my heart seems like it might burst any minute but, I love that feeling when I'm around you. I crave it all the time." I whisper, caressing his jawline before pecking it, making a husky growl emit from his lips.
"You're so pure, so innocent...so good. And I'm the complete opposite, I don't deserve an angel like you."
"We are what the other deserves, Gabriel. I wouldn't want it any other way." I reply, wrapping my arms around his neck as his hands rest on my hips. I push up to press my forehead against his, staring into his eyes and hoping he can see just how much I love him. "I'm so glad you found me."
A breath-taking smile spreads across his lips ever so slowly. "I'm happy that I was given a second-chance."
His eyes grow soft and hazy, as if he is a content man right now just by staring at me. I shiver when his fingertips trail up and down my bare arm, a slow smile spreading across his lips, loving my reaction to his tempting touch.
"Love me?"
I smile gently, leaning forward until our lips are just brushing against each other; a breath away from meeting and I whisper, "Forever and always."

So, this was my story.
A tale of how I, a human, found true and lasting love in another realm.
A history of loss, new beginnings, love, pain and eternity.

Amanda Thomas's P.O.V.
The sky is painted with hues of candy pink and purple as I pull up into the driveway of my home this evening. Turning off the ignition, I grab my things and get out of the car, locking it before I make my way inside. Gabriel is nowhere to be seen when I walk further into the house, but I can sense him.
Deciding on changing first, I rush up to my bedroom and change into comfortable lounge wear. Letting my hair down, I put on some cozy slippers before making my way downstairs. As I reach the last step, Gabriel's scent beckons me outside.
Following the strong need to be with him, I walk past the kitchen and open the back door to see him in his beastly form. He turns at the sound of my footsteps, a smile blooming on my lips as Boris's eyes connect with mine. After reassuring Gabriel that it's okay to let his beasts out around me, he lets them free more often.
"Angel." His voice is a low rumble in my mind, red eyes following every move of mine with interest as I make my way over and sit next to him on the steps leading down to the garden.
"Hello, Boris." I greet softly, resting my head on his shoulder.
He hums in satisfaction, wrapping his arm around my shoulders and pulling me closer. Boris is always colder than Mura but I don't mind it. He pulls my top away and presses kisses to my mark, making me shiver at the burst of heat within me. I whimper softly when he pulls away, my cheeks coloring in embarrassment over how needy I'm being. He smiles softly, bright eyes taking in every little feature of mine, as if committing it to memory. Pulling away, he brings a gorgeous red rose forward, making me gasp.
I take it from him, smelling its fresh scent. The petals are soft and vibrant of the red color, the stem free from any thorns that could prick my finger. I murmur a quiet thank you to which he just nods, before placing the rose behind my ear. He moves closer and presses a gentle, lingering kiss to my cheek. But then, he stills. His body moves as he inhales and suddenly, he is pulling away with a frown. I stare at him, wondering what is wrong.
The red in his eyes darkens as he moves closer to my neck and inhales. Pulling away, an angry growl escapes him, his lips pulling up into a deadly sneer. I frown in confusion over his sudden change in mood.
"Mate doesn't smell like me." Boris growls and I suddenly realize why he is so angry.
I sigh before intertwining our hands, dark eyes connecting with light grays. "Boris, we've been over this before. I work in an office where there are both men and women."
I graduated from university with a degree in Law and this is my first year working at a firm. Being in a different state whilst completing my studies was hard on both Gabriel and I, but we made it work. He was so supportive of everything I did and I didn't feel any pressure when I was deciding on which college to attend, even if it was miles away from him. I cherished the memories of when either Gabriel or I would drive the few hours to see each other for a day or two. Being with each other after a lot of waiting made the visits even more special.
