51. The change
Dominic was looking at Athena’s sleeping face with a blank look on his face. His eyes weren’t blinking even for a second as he drank in her beauty and got lost in her flawless face.
She looked like a baby as she slept. She was tired and getting exhausted pretty easily because of the loss of connection with her wolf. Also the thing that happened with Stacey and all exhausted her a lot. She dozed off out of nowhere in the garden as they sat there in silence without talking and enjoying the moment.
After she fell asleep, her head fell on his shoulder. That made him feel like the most right thing in the world. He sat there for a long time in that position until he realised that it might be uncomfortable for her. Then he picked her up bridal style and walked back to their-…his bedroom and placed her back on the bed.
But he still couldn’t leave the room or her. More like he didn’t want to leave, hence he didn’t leave. Because just when he was going to leave, he felt someone pulling him from behind. And when he looked back, he found her holding his hand in sleep, not letting him leave. The mate bond erupted an unexplainable feeling all over his body, striking the possessive corner of his heart. How could he leave after that?!
He sat there for hours while holding her hand and looking at her face. It seemed like the best thing to do t o him. He has never looked at her carefully until today. But he remembered that she looked as beautiful and innocent as today when they first met. Like today, she was sleeping peacefully and innocently like a child, that day as well.
That day he snatched her sleep for years and became the reason for her restless sleep. And today he was admiring her sleeping while making sure no one disturbs her.
He couldn’t imagine how and when things changed to this from that. And he couldn’t even decide how he felt about this. It was messed up.
He didn’t know what he felt for her. He knew the mate bond got stronger between them a lot but was it strong enough to make him accept her as his mate considering his past? But at the same time, could he let her go after all these? But there was a question hanging in the air and between them still.
Ace…

Fuck! So many questions were there and he didn’t have any answers to them! When did his life got so fucked up once again?
He let out a sigh before looking back to her face.
“Can you stop acting like this? It’s so embarrassing.”
Dominic turned around to look at the door as he frowned deeply.
“What are you both doing here? And what’s so embarrassing?” Dominic scoffed at his second and third in commands who were standing by the door while leaning on the door frames.
They both walked inside with smirks on their faces as Dominic looked back at Athena to make sure she was still sleeping.
“This! You being like this is embarrassing. Oh goddess, Nathan. I can’t see this anymore.” Justin acted to puke before turning to look away from Dominic, earning a low growl.
“How am I being?” Dominic asked through gritted teeth, ignoring the obviousness.
“Like a love sick puppy. You are acting like a complete wimp. Sorry but not sorry, alpha.” Nathan teased and as expected, he earned a murderous glare as well. But they both didn’t mind that at all as they
laughed out loud hearing that.
“Fuck off you both if you don’t have any work to do!” Dominic snapped in a low tone, not wanting to disturb her sleep at all.
“Well, actually we do have work and that’s why, we are here.” Nathan said as he let out a sigh.
“What is it?” Dominic asked with a frown.
“Well, I know how it gets when you find your mate and all but you also got a pack to run, Dominic. You can’t forget us.” Nathan teased, irritating Dominic instantly.
“I don’t need to learn that from you.” He snapped.
“Undoubtedly. But now you need to let her sleep alone and come with us. We got things to discuss.” Nathan spoke up, getting serious suddenly.
Dominic closed his eyes in frustration because Nathan was right. They have things to do and those things need to be taken care of immediately.
