Chapter 168

"Yeah, least till ya figure out what you want."

My eyes burned with desire. "I know exactly what I want."

She wiggled awkwardly under the power of my words and I captured her mouth with mine before she had a chance to protest. She was the best thing I ever tasted, and like a man in the desert stumbling upon water, I didn't think I could possibly ever get enough of her, especially now that I had had her.

The phone rang, interrupting my conquest. I groaned as she pushed away to check her cell.

"Don't answer it," I protested weakly, not wanting to return to reality. I liked the little bubble of us we had created that afternoon. As if a sign depicting just how long we'd stayed in that bubble, my stomach growled loudly. She giggled as she answered her phone. I took a second to check mine for the time and was surprised to find it was nearing dinner. I hadn't eaten all day. I knew, no matter how much I wanted to, I couldn't survive on Elise alone.

Not bothering to dress, I rolled out of bed and headed to the kitchen as I heard her say, "Yes, Lily, it's fine... Of course, I had Kyle fix things. He shouldn't have interfered with my life to begin with... I'm at Patrick's... What? Tell them to stay away. We're, uh, talking..." She blushed, causing a deep rumble of laughter to erupt from me, shortly followed by a pillow smacking against my back.

I didn't think anything could wipe the smile from my face as I reached my kitchen and began checking the press for food. I cringed, realizing I was going to have to go shopping. I couldn't have my mate starving because I didn't like going to the shops for the messages.

With a thud my clothes landed at my feet. I looked up and saw Elise fully dressed and standing in the doorway. My eyebrow raised in inquiry. She gave me an apologetic look.

"My siblings are on their way. All of them. I'm sorry. My family can be a little protective and they want to make sure I'm okay."
