Olivia’s POV
I turned my head, and truly, another car was parked at the school’s far end. It looked suspicious, and as I tried to figure out who it might be, I heard a car zooming behind me.
I turned around and saw Pierre driving away.
“Pierre! Wait, come back!”
However, it was no use. He turned the corner and disappeared. The mysterious vehicle began to honk at me, and I stared at it in fright and suspicion and began to walk up to it.
I reached the back seat window and waited patiently. There was no way I was going into a strange vehicle.
Slowly, the window began to wind down, and I saw a set of familiar green eyes and long hair that belonged to a peculiar, handsome face.
“Andre?” I said in excitement and disbelief.
“I thought you were going to run off and hide again,” he said teasingly, with a twinkle in his eyes.”
I blushed as he flashed me a smile and opened the door, and I excitedly sat down beside him, fighting the urge to jump into his arms and wrap my arms around his neck.
“I…I thought you weren’t coming. You left a note saying you were in an important meeting and would return late.”
He turned me and sweetly stroked my hair, tucking a strand behind my ear.
“I will always be here for you, kitten, no matter what. I should have been the one to bring you for your registration, except that the meeting held me up, and it was impromptu.”
He took my hand and kissed the back of it softly while giving me a sexy stare. My cheeks burned hot again, and it felt like my body was on fire. What was he doing to me?
“I also wanted to tell you that I’ve been thinking about what you said,” He said softly, stroking my hair. “I am willing to wait and announce you as my Luna when you feel comfortable about it all. I am happy I have you and don’t want to lose you.”
His words made my heart bubble with passion, and I couldn’t take it anymore. I got up, leaned over, and softly kissed his cheek.
Suddenly, I felt his arms wrap around my waist, and he pulled me closer. His green eyes stared deep into mine, and I was almost caught in a trance.
“A kiss on the cheek? Seriously? Isn’t that too small a compensation for all the stress that you put me through, kitten?” He said seductively.
Before I could get another word out, he covered my lips with a wet, steamy kiss. I groaned deeply and put myself closer to him as I felt the warmth and softness of his lips on mine. It was an ecstasy that I wanted to feel every day, and I never wanted it to stop.
However, he pulled away and gave me a little smile.
“We will continue this when we get home.”
I blushed lightly while he started the engine, and soon enough, we pulled out of the school parking lot.
“So, where exactly are we going?” I asked him curiously.
“Nowhere in particular,” he said with a smile. “I just feel that a nice drive is better than being cooped up in the house. But I do have a special place in mind.”
We continued to drive, and the entire time, my fingers were intertwined with his, and I felt the warmth of his palm heat up my body and feed my desires for him.
The sun was going down, and its evening beam made everything look mystical and beautiful. And I couldn’t help looking out of the window in awe.
After driving around for a while, we pulled up in front of an uncompleted building site. Tools were neatly stored in two boxes and arranged inside the building. It seemed like the construction men had closed for the day, as it was almost empty.
From my window, I could see the beautiful landscape. The trees were lush green, and the blooming flowers filled the greenery with colour. I could see happy folks talking about their business, and in the distance, I could see an elderly couple sitting on a bench enjoying the cool evening breeze and looking at the flowers.
“When I was young, my mother used to take me here almost every evening, and we would simply sit and enjoy the scenery. She always ensured that I knew how beautiful nature was and that, as a wolf, I never lost touch with nature. Sometimes, we would sit silently, and if we listened hard enough, we could hear the breeze talking to us in gentle, airy whispers. After she passed on, I promised myself I would bring my mate here”
He turned, looked at me, and smiled, and I felt my heart melting.
“and I think I have fulfilled that promise.”
I smiled back at him with little tears in my eyes.
“I think this all looks beautiful. It feels so calm and quiet. It feels like a place where I could let my mind wander and forget the passage of time.”
As I continued to look out the window, I felt him move closer to me, and he wrapped his arms around me in an embrace, and I nestled my head under his chin, basking in his warmth.
“I love you, Olivia. You have no idea how long and how desperately I have waited for you. I was almost losing hope. I almost believed that the Moon Goddess hadn’t destined me to find a mate, and I would never know what it feels like to have a deep connection with your mate, and yet, here you are, with me in my arms.”
He groaned softly in my ears and trailed kisses on my neck and earlobes. I ran my hands through his hair, enjoying the warmth of his breath on my skin. I was on softly as my lips craved his, and he covered them with a gentle and tentative kiss.
I cupped his face gently in my palms and groaned softly as he kissed me.
After a while, he pulled away, looked me deeply in the eyes, and stroked my hair.
