Chapter 32

Freya

From the conversation I had with Dinara to the kiss, I shared with Gabriel. Everything had happened, so fast that I was left contemplating. I had been assuming that the old man that made the prophecy was some sorcerer but in reality, he was just another being.

It had been Dinara all along and now she wanted me to choose Gabriel. I was not sure what I was going to do unless Titus and I had a clear stance about the mate bond we shared. I was his mate until he rejected me, though why I don't know I felt there was more to Titus than met the eye.

I couldn't forget the way he looked at me, the way he held me, and of course not to forget Sabre. The way Sabre had looked obsessed with me it was a surprise that he won't have troubled Titus for leaving me.

A knock sounded and I looked at the door of my bedroom from where I was standing near the window of my room. It was Gabriel, he was asking permission to enter my room for the first time.

"Come in," I gave him a polite smile then turned and looked outside the window onto the grounds of the pack.

A celebration was being arranged for Gabriel's healthy recovery and in honor of his father's visit. It was not every day that a Vampire King visited a pack.

I felt Gabriel's presence behind me, he wrapped his arm around my waist and pulled me to him. I didn't resist him and let him engulf me into a hug from behind.

"You know, what bothered me the most when I thought I was dying?' Gabriel asked.

" What?" I turned and looked at him over my shoulder.

"The thought that I might die, without telling, you, how much I love you," he whispered in my ear.

I felt butterflies burst in my stomach, how could he always make me go weak in my knees. If Gabriel won't have been holding me, I might have melted into a puddle near his feet.

"I love you, Freya, more than you can ever imagine," his lips brushed the rim of my ear, and I shuddered in his arm.

"Gabriel," I gasped.

"Just like that, baby, never in my life my name has ever sounded so sexy to me," he kissed the sweet spot on my neck behind my ear, brushing aside my hair.

"Gabriel, I can't do this, I have another mate," I struggled in his hold the moment, I remembered Titus.

Gabriel's lips froze over my neck and I shut my eyes tightly. I should not have mentioned Titus in front of him. I knew he won't like it a bit that I was thinking about another man when in his arms.

"Freya, he is gone. If he loved you, he would have come for you," Gabriel said.

"I don't believe this Gabriel, I know something is missing. Titus will never leave without informing me," I slowly pulled his arm away from around my waist.

The next moment I was pinned against the giant glass window of my room and Gabriel was leaning over me. I looked startled into his green orbs, which had started to turn red.

"Gabriel," I tried pushing him away.

"You are mine, Freya. If anyone tried to come between us, either it be Titus or anyone else I won't think twice before ripping his throat," he growled in a deadly voice.

My breath hitched, his front was pressing into me, and a shiver ran down my spine from the possessiveness in his tone. Mates were extremely possessive about each other, but Gabriel should understand that he was not the only one I was mated to.

"He is my mate and you won't do anything like such," I looked into his eyes and said in a commanding tone.

"Trust me, Freya, I can do much more than that, if anyone even thinks of stealing you away from me," Gabriel traced a line on my cheek with his knuckles and I sucked in a breath.

The bastard knew very well that I was not unaffected by his touch and he was using it to his advantage. He stopped when he reached the corner of my mouth then tucked at it gently, biting his lip. All thoughts of Titus went flying out of the window as an unknown desire took over me.

I wanted to pull him by his neck and crush my mouth over his. I still couldn't forget the way his soft lips had felt against mine.

"Are you wet for me, Freya?" Gabriel leaned and whispered in my ear.

My eyes went wide on his question, he was truly shameless to ask me something like this. I tried to push him away but he pinned my hand above my head and I wriggled in his hold.

"I can smell your arousal, don't lie to me," he smirked and I struggled to get free of his hold.

"Leave me, Gabriel," I hissed.

"But I am loving you like this, on my mercy," he leaned and licked my neck and I bit on my lip to suppress my moan.

My traitorous body was on fire just from his simple touch. A raw desire that I had never witnessed before started building within me which terrified me to my core. I have never been with a man before, the only little intimacy that I had was with Titus and it didn't count in front of what Gabriel was doing to me now.

"It will take me no time to turn you into a moaning mess, in my arms right at this moment," his deep voice traveled straight to the center of my being, and I felt moisture pooling between my legs.

"Gabriel, please let me go," I tried to free my hands from out of his hold and gasped in delight when he squeezed my bosom.

I arched my back, pressing myself closer against him. The bastard smirked against my neck but I was too lost in his touch to resist him.
