Chapter 36

*Annette *

I saw myself in his eyes the day we met. I glittered and shined for him. He held me so softly as I slept soundly in his arms and his hands cared for me as he laid me down on my old bed.

He watched me more than I realized. So many images of me in the garden, helping pups learn, fighting, jogging. Where was he when he watched me like this.

His strong urge to be with me but his fear of me all clashed inside of him. He would find himself walking toward me

and then turn when he realized.

I watched that hole from what had happened earlier in life grow and shrink as our time together went on. The way he saw me was so much different than I thought.

I had imagined the annoyance and fear being the main image he viewed but in every instance I saw he wanted me.

His fear was like a wall of glass he’d see and come for me but he couldn’t go further than a certain point.

When I came back to reality I felt his care for me and an uneasiness.

I was falling.

“I’m falling.”

I grabbed onto him as he grabbed me. I tried to speak but my mouth couldn’t form an actual word.

A garbled sound came out and suddenly hands were everywhere.

“Grayson you okay?” Someone spoke I think it was Matt or Aarron.

“Give Luna to me,” Elizabeth or Amaria said. I don’t know.

“No I’m fine I’m fine,” his arms encircled me again.

I blinked for a second trying to pull myself of pig this powerful fog.

*We’re still in the forest. I’m in his arms.

I tried to explain to myself what was going on to get myself right. I looked around and I saw his face angry and focused on me.

“Grayson,” I told myself, anchoring me to him.

**Annette

I heard him say but his mouth didn’t move.

Is she okay?

“Grayson I’m fine,” I brought a hand to his face.

“Goddess,” he grabbed me and took us to our feet. I stumbled for a second but then I found my footing.

Annette?

“Yes,”

“You can hear my thoughts?” He determined.

“I wonder if he can hear mine?

“I can,” he gave a nod of his head.

He then realized his hands were one me and he removed them but a smirk came on his face when he sensed my

his actions.

“I’m still not used to it,” he chuckled.

Get used to it.

Get used

“I’ve said I’ll try,” his smile broadened and my heart summersalted.

“This is not normal,” I laughed and his deep rumble of laughter came forward.

He must have realized what his laugh does to me as a blush a literal blush came on his face.

“Let’s go see our people,” He spoke in his rough glass voice to me.

“Yes,” I bit l*p after I spoke the smile we shared creeping over my face.

“This is what I have been missing.”

His hand wrapped around mine in a gargantuan manner and my heart felt lighter than it had in weeks.
