Chapter 29. That’s Not The Rea…

Riannon needed time to process what was happening. Why was he holding her in his arms in the middle of the night and why did he barely have any clothes on? And now that her mind went there, there was no going back. Werewolves were a gorgeous race, but having her arms on a Lycan’s chest, the heat was spreading fast all over her bloodstream. Gideon looked as if his body was carved out of stone by a true master. With love and not sparing any effort to sculpture perfection. His chest was so hard and all his body lines were so perfect that she

couldn’t form a proper word for a while.

“Are you alright?” He asked her as his fingers were pressing harder into her flesh. She realised that she herself was wearing next to nothing. Just a flimsy silk slip was all that separated their two very hot bodies.

“My king,” she said and immediately heard a growl, not being able to decipher where it was one of pleasure of anger(This novel will be daily updtaed at www.noveljar.com). However, her heart started beating faster and her chest started going up and down… Gideon couldn’t ignore that as it was creating some friction between them and he was barely managing it as it was.

“Riannon,” he said in a much lower voice than usual, “Call me by my name. Please.” She sucked in a breath because he still did not let her go. And also she still did not push

him away.

“Gideon,” was all she said, again catching herself on the thought that she did not ask him to leave. She should have done it and yet she hadn’t.

He was looking at her as if he was expecting this but at the same time, the look in his eyes was strange and feral. As if he was about to devour her any second. And she doubted if she would even mind that. Just what was going on between them?

“You were screaming,” he told her, trying to clear his throat, “I was afraid that something happened. And that’s why…”

“How did you hear me?” she asked and bit her lip, which made him let out a heavy sigh. “Our rooms are adjacent,” he clarified the situation, “Goddess, Ria, I thought someone

attacked you.”

“No, no, sorry,” she shook her head, “I am fine. It was just a bad dream.”

Suddenly, he placed his palm on her chin and made her look at him, caressing her gently

with his thumb.

“What kind of dream make a person scream like that?” he looked her in the eye in hope

that she would open up to him.

while. She relaxed into his arms and he wrapped them tighter around her, inhaling her

wonderful scent deeply as long as he had the opportunity.

“You can tell me,” he whispered and she flinched at his words, knowing very well that she couldn’t.

Gideon was a good man, she could tell. Even though he made the worst first expression, he was earning points back very quickly. He seemed reliable. And most importantly, he was generally interested in her and her wellbeing. She did not have it with Brayden for a while.
