Denied by Destiny: Trapped in the Shadows of the Mate Bond

Chapter 0161

Kala POV

I feel tingles across my face, my own moan waking me from a sweet slumber.

"Kala, wake up...we are here."

My eyes slowly open to find the sun setting, the night sky an array of soft pink and orange, and us parked in front of a guarded gate.

"We are here?" I ask sitting up, it didn't look like much, just a gate.

"Before we enter I just wanted to prepare you...."

"Prepare me for what?"

"A select few have heard you are returning.."

"Returning?" I repeat, my eyebrows furrowing.

"Yes, you stayed with me before you left for the Nightshade Reformed pack. They will be outside the alpha house, don't be alarmed...you left abruptly. They will just be glad you are safe." I hadn't realised until now that his hand was touching mine, his thumb drawing soothing circles on my open palm.

"Okay..." I'm hesitant in how to respond. I had no memory of his pack, of his people. I'm also now very aware as his hand moves away to the steering wheel, my hand missing his touch.

He had almost carried me back into the car from the restaurant, each time I fought against him he applied his lips to my neck, making me succumb to that addictive sensation.

He was a cryptic person, one minute assertive....then playful as he would ignite sparks across my skin in a way only he can do.
