** * * * * Crystal’s POV * * * * *
“If we must, then you have to mark me first, you have to make me your Luna” I proposed
I am sure this would scare him away, just like the last time, he would have to let go.
His hands were still on my cheeks, they were cold.
He was silent after hearing my proposal, perhaps thinking about it. But why is it taking him so long to decide.
It doesn’t matter how long he takes it. Even though he despises me and wants to get back at me by having sex with me, he would not agree with my condition.
I mean, which Alpha will want to become an ordinary person, lose their supernatural abilities and die early like hummus.
How will they cope with injuries since they are used to healing fast when injured.
How would an Alpha defend his pack if he becomes weak, there is no doubt that his inferiors would overthrow him and take the position from him.
The thought of that assured me that Logan will not do it.
If he persisted, then I would also stand on my point not to let him touch me until he marks me, that is the only way I can hide the cesarean scars from him.
“Alright Crystal, I will do it, I will make you my Luna”
His words came as a shock to me. He certainly has to be kidding.
I forced my eyes up to look at his face.
To my suprise, he was serious, he meant his damn words.
Why would he agree to such a condition? Does it not bother him that he will lose everything if he places his mark on me?
“Logan, what are you saying?” I queried to be sure that I heard right.
“Yes Crystal, I will mark you if that’s what you want, just let me be intimate with you”
There were so many emotions in his eyes as he said those words, he sounded desperate.
What is his new move now? Why does he want to lay with me so desperately?
It doesn’t matter what his reasons are, it changes nothing because I can’t let him sleep with me.
If I do, he would see the scars on my tummy, and I would endanger Aidan’s life.
Even though my body wants to let him have me, when he touches me or kisses me, I feel aroused and I want to let him have me. I always want to experience that feeling I had experienced with him three years ago, but not at the cost of my son’s life.
He lowered his face and pressed his lips into mine again. They tasted like liquor and mint.
He kissed me all over my face, then his lips made their way to my neck where he intended to place his mark.
My heart fluttered and my breath paced up. So he really intends to Mark me? I still can’t believe it!
“Please stop Logan” I pleaded and pushed him off gently.
“What’s wrong, you wanted me to place my Mark on you right? Well that’s what I’m doing”
“It is not the problem Logan” I mumbled
“Then what’s wrong… Okay I guess you are not comfortable out here, let’s go inside” he suggested and held my hand but I wouldn’t move from my position.
“Please Logan, I don’t want to do this” I cried out
If I knew that he would consent to my proposal, then I wouldn’t have used that as a condition.
Now he has me trapped. He despises me so much and he wouldn’t give up until he has gotten in between my legs. How am I supposed to get out of this now?
** * * * * Logan’s POV * * * * *
I tried kissing her again, but she pushed me off. I don’t understand her at all, I had already promised that I would make her my Luna, I am ready to Mark her right here and right now so why is she still refusing me.
Perhaps I was wrong about her all along. I had thought that she had asked me to mark her before having sex with her out of pride
But I have come to realize that she never wanted to have sex with me in the first place, she used that condition because she knew I would not agree to it, she was trying to scare me.
I never thought I would agree to such a condition.
Lucy had been arranged to be my mate since the past five years, although I’ve had sex with her a few times, but I haven’t placed a mark on her.
Even though my parents had chosen her for me and the pack recognises her as my soon-to-be Luna, I couldn’t bring myself to Mark her.
But today I almost placed my mark on Crystal.
I mean her case is more tense.
She is not a werewolf which means, marking her will take away my supernatural abilities.
Yet, I am willing to do it. That could only mean one thing.
Blake was right. I am in love with this lady.
“Alright, please stop crying, I won’t Mark you or have sex with you if you don’t want me to” I said and moved back a bit.
She looked up at me with a surprised face. Maybe she did not think I would give up so easily.
Even though it’s hard to suppress my feelings, considering her condition right now, I think it’s best I let her go, I can’t watch her cry.
I don’t know why she doesn’t want to have sex with me, but whatever her reasons are, I would respect them till she’s ready.
She wiped her tears with the back of her palm and sniffed.
“Come on, I will take you home” I offered.
“No… I”
“Don’t refuse, and forget about the trash, I’ll go and get you some cash inside”
“No Logan, please just let me take the trash along, I’ll manage” she disapproved.
I did not need a seer to tell me she wouldn’t change her mind, so I decided not to persuade her.
“Alright then, bring your trash along and let’s go to your house” I groaned.
She seemed to hesitate a bit to my offer, then she carried the bag and followed me as I walked to the car.
Gosh! I still had a bulge in my pants. Damn it!
