Claiming His Resisting Mate

REESE’S POV

I looked at my mate who somehow looked so stunned. Like he couldn’t believe what I said just now. The door of our room was closed tightly and right now he was staring at me with wide eyes.

“Did you really?” He asked, wearing a mask of confusion.

“I told you already, didn’t I?”

He shook his head, stepping closer “why did you think of such an idea? Fuck the main point is why do you even need to do that?”

“Because I wanted to,” I replied. “Maybe it doesn’t mean anything to you or maybe it’s not important in your eyes, but for me I guess it’s important. I wanted to have it, not only for you, but for myself”

Azrael looked shocked, “why?”

I couldn’t help but smile. He was always anxious that I would leave him one day, and I have been trying to assure him I won’t. But I guess the events of the past wouldn’t let his mind be in peace to think clearly and put a small part of trust in my words. I raised my hand and cupped his cheek.

“It’s important, because I couldn’t see you in fear, I want you to trust me fully. Azrael I know this is hard, and even though you are reluctant you are forcing yourself to believe in me, ahd what we have. I may have been a senseless bitch in the past, chasing the wrong person and ruining myself to the point I couldn’t not mend other than regretting. But I wanted to do this for you, because you are precious to me” I smiled at him. My eyes were already wet.

“You have given me everything I ever dreamt for. You showed me how beautiful life could be with the right person. You showed me everyone deserves to be happy with their partners, I deserve to be happy” my voice was weak and I let out a sigh. “I know I don’t have any right to talk about righteousness when I ruined other’s life for my own interest. I am regretting till now, I couldn’t forgive myself for such an action and I don’t know if I could ever be able to. But even if I want I can’t change my part and could only depend on my present. I wanted to do this because I want to show you that I am sincere with my feelings”

Azrael shook his head. There was a light smile on his face “you are silly, I could see your pain through your eyes. Do you think you can really hide it from me? I don’t talk about it because I know you want to avoid it. Even if you are smiling I could just predict your internal storm”

I stared at the man who has become the most important person in my life. Two years ago, I never thought I would fall for this man whom I neglected once and forced him to reject me, to break the bond. There was a time when I thought he is inferior to me. But today I felt like I was nowhere near him. I couldn’t even say I am inferior to him because this man is simply perfect in every aspect. I couldn’t ask more.

“You know me better than me” I whispered, fixing my gaze on him.

He smirked “I learnt everything that would keep you close to me. Because darling, I wouldn’t let you complain for anything”

I laughed “so mister, you think I will complain?”

“No, but it’s for future cautious”

I rolled my eyes “now you sound like a typical husband who is tired of his wife’s daily drama”

“Oh, if you put me in that place then let me clear something darling” he pulled me closer gripping my waist, “getting tired of you is far from the question. I would do every fucking thing you ask me”

I raised an eyebrow “you would?”

“You can try by asking,” he nodded.

“Great then. I want to meet mom and dad. Shall we go?” I grinned. Haley forced me to refer to them as mom and dad. She said it would feel more like a close one.

“You want to meet them?” He frowned, “that’s it?”

I nodded “yes, it has been so long. Because of the battle and other things we didn’t have the chance to sit with them and have a chat for some time. Besides we should visit them frequently so that we could be assured we won’t worry about them”

He laughed “darling, have you forgotten? We are werewolves, we can handle a little bit of hardships. Besides humans worry about old age, but our age is kind of limitless”

I rolled my eyes “you talk too much. Just do what I say” I frowned at him.

“Okay, okay, we will go tomorrow. Happy’?”

I grinned “very”.

“So what kind of design is it? Now I am kind of curious”

“You will see it after three days mister” I poked his cheek “but till then you need to restrain your stamina” my fingers trailed down to his chest which he gripped abruptly.

“Darling you shouldn’t seduce me like that or I can’t guarantee if I could listen to your words” he warned and I could clearly see his eyes getting dark.

I gasped and pulled my hand back before pushing him away a little “I guess no closeness for three days too”

Azrael let out a low growl of disapproval “fuck it, you know how to torture me”

I chuckled “serves you right” and to his horny wolf.

Next morning I got up early and got ready. When I walked out I saw Adriana walking around the garden. That was her favorite spot and I guess she liked to hang around the flower even if she was alone. She hugged herself and closed her eyes. Looked like she was enjoying her morning time.

“Good morning” I said as I walked towards her.

“Morning” Adriana smiled then raked her eyes on my body from top to bottom. “Going somewhere?”

I grinned “yeah, to meet his parents”

“You looked happy, don’t tell me you have become the fan of Uncle Eliseo’s cooking”

“You can say that. Well I have tasted his food and that was damn delicious. I still can’t forget the taste” I shook my head. When I was talking about the taste, my mouth was already watered.

“Look at you, your dreamy eyes. I never knew you are a foodie” she rolled her eyes making me chuckle.

“I never knew I have this habit too but I think I developed it after tasting his food”

“Sure Reese, you know how to remember things” Adriana grinned then looked behind me “and I guess it’s your time to leave. May be when you are visiting this early, you will be able to get breakfast too”

“Idea is not bad indeed” I nodded and felt a presence behind me. Then the familiar scent hit my nose.

“Good morning Luna” Azrael’s voice sounded near my ear.

“Morning John, I guess you both have a plan ahead”

“Just visiting mom and dad,” he replied.

“Of course” Adriana chuckled and shot me a knowing look which immediately made me smirk.

“Shall we go?” John asked me.

“Yes” I nodded. “See you soon Adriana” I waved my hand.

“Yeah, see you later. Have a good day” she nodded.

Since his parents live in the forest, it didn’t take much time to reach there. I gasped when I saw the place had changed. Even there was a slight change of the house style.

“I felt like, I have never come here before” I exclaimed looking around the area.

“Yeah, because of the battle everything has changed slightly,” Azrael replied.

Suddenly the door opened revealing Haley. At first she frowned when she saw us then smiled brightly before calling out “John, Reese?”

“Mom” Azrael smiled and walked towards her.

“Oh my god, you two are really here?” Haley walked to us and we greeted with a hug. “How are you two?”

“We are fine,” I smiled.

“How’s your wound John? Do you feel any pain or something?” Haley asked.

“No mom, it’s healed. Turner really gave good medicine” Azrael replied.

“I am glad. Oh, it’s good that you two are here. Your dad is making pancakes for breakfast. Let’s go inside, he will be happy to see you two” Haley said and led us inside the room. Suddenly Adriana’s words came into my mind and I laughed inwardly. She was right, we really caught the breakfast timing.

After the meal the men were in the yard while Haley and I sat on the veranda.

“I am glad you decided to visit. I really wanted to see John. When I heard he was injured in the fight. But we couldn’t leave the place since we had to fix the destruction caused due to the fight” she sighed.

I hold her hand “please rest assured. He is fine. Alpha Cassius was also so worried about him. It was lucky that Turner was there to help him”

“Turner is such a good doctor. I believe in his treatment” Haley nodded and glanced at her son “after such a long period of time I am seeing her happy. And it’s all because of you Reese, you helped him regain his original posture”

I shook my head “I did nothing. Instead it was him who changed my life for good. If he hadn’t forced me to come here, may be I would still be a rogue and roaming around the forest aimlessly”RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only

Haley smiled “everything is already decided. Since Moon Goddess gives pain, it’s because she knows at the end everything will be worth it. Besides if we don’t do mistakes then how will we learn”

I nodded with agreement. I turned my head to look at my mate, “and I am glad I learnt enough to be rewarded such a prize”
