Chapter 28

“We should bind,”

He has no f**king clue

“Wh–you–it…no!” I fumbled so unbelievably stupefied at his solution here.

“No?” He walked back to me. “Why?”

“We barely speak!” I was having a hard time breathing and my ears were ringing.

*This is not how it’s supposed to go; we’re supposed to bind when we’re in love.”

He rolled his eyes. “Annette we will get to know each other but your safety is more important,” He stated it so matter of factly deciding everything by himself again.

“No Grayson I’m not binding with you like this I don’t- it’s this isn’t what I want,” I shook my head.

“You want me to try, I can do that, but it might be harder if I’m protecting you from every other male on the planet,” he sat back down beside me leaning back and folding his arms over his chest.

“You didn’t trust me for weeks, Grayson!” I clamped my eyes shut. “Now you want to bind!”

“I didn’t fully trust you,” He corrected me but it did not help his argument at all.

*Seriously!

“That is the point! Binding means forever Grayson I will feel you forever! And you don’t trust me!” I got up and walked over to the window needing space.

“You need to be safe. The fact that I have considered this shows that we can do this,” He followed me.

“Oh! Oh, that’s good because you think you may want to bind with me, we should!” I laughed at him.

“I want to try. I know I don’t want to lose you. I know that there is danger. This is how I protect you,” He slowly approached me but his face was so serious and set.

“Grayson this is my life, this means that no matter how you feel in the end you and I will always be together,” I tried to get him to see the risk here but he was like a mountain staying still in a hurricane.

“Every doubt in my mind he had placed began swelling in size at this sudden change. How could I accept us binding when he barely showed me he could treat me right.

“I can’t do this,” I felt tears welling up.

“I can’t bind with my soulmate. I can’t bring myself to take this leap. This is not what I want.

“I need to go and think. I need to I need to just take a walk,” I walked away from him and out the door.
