Chapter 28: twenty six
Anger and sadness shine in his ocean blue eyes as he looks at her.
She presses Adonis closer to her, tightening her hold on him. She couldn't bare to continue looking at
Adryan's face, because that look, that made her feel extremely guilty for keeping his son away from
him for too long.
"Is the baby mine?" He asks after few moments of silence.
"No" she lies.
"Do not lie to me Jade. I can smell both of our scents mixed with the baby" he speaks, moving closer.
His body now pressed against hers but careful not to crush the sleeping child she held in her arms.
His face moves closer to hers, his lips nearing hers but he tilts his head to the side last minute so that
his lips were aligned with her ear.
"Do you take me for a fool Jade?" He whispers into her ear causing her to breath come out in uneven
patterns as her body shuddered with tingles.
"Is it a boy or a girl?" He asks her, now he had moved back, so that he was still close to her but enough
so that he could stare at Adonis' sleeping frame.
"It's a boy" she looks as Adryan stared back at her, she could see happiness swimming in his eyes, but
his eyes turn hard after a few moments.
"Why?" His voice hard but there was something else laced within them, a tinge of sadness seeping
through his words.
Sadness hits her as well but it vanishes as soon as it came, because in the end it was his own actions
that drove her away in the first place.
"You know I had to, Do not act like you don't know anything. Don't you know Adryan? It was because of
you. It was your hot and cold attitude to us being mates that drove me away in the first place." She
says boldly, staring straight into his pair of hypnotizing ocean eyes.
She could see how her words had managed to anger him, as his breathing pattern changed visibly, his
ocean eyes turning darker as he stared back at her. He was fighting for control, as his fists tightened.
"What's his name"? He asks her, after he had successfully gained back his control.
She stares at him, thinking in her head whether she should let him enjoy getting to know his sons name
after what he had done to her.
"Adonis. Adonis Romano." She says after a few second. Her words shocked him that much she could
see from his facial expression that portrayed shock which he didn't try to hide from her. Shocking.
He looked at her with happiness in his eyes, mixed with shock.
"You gave him my last name." His voice a mere whisper.
"Yes. I did. I'm not selfish enough to it give him your last name." She answers back his question.
"Thankyou" even though it was a mere whisper, she had managed to hear his words. It shocked her
because he had never heard him say thankyou to anyone before, for the whole six months she stayed
at his pack.
She just nods her head at him in acknowledgement.
"We need to go back" he speaks after a few moments, his words capture her attention. Her eyes
harden as she glares at him the next moment.
"No" she says.
"No?" He repeats her words, one of his
dark eyebrows raised in question.
"Yes, a NO, Adryan. I'm not coming with you. The only person that is going to be leaving this
apartment and go back is you. Not me." She looks at him, square in his eyes.
A mocking humorless laugh leaves his lips, startling her, causing goosebumps to arise on her skin. He
moves closer to her face, to the point where both their noses brushed against each other.
"Do you think I would travel so far? Away from my pack only to go back empty handed? Without you by
my side?" He asks her, his heated gaze staring at her own ones that stare back at him with anger
burning behind them.
"I'm not going back Adryan" she hisses back at him, repeating her previous words.
It was shocking how Adonis managed to sleep through out, not even waking up with their raised voices
and when Adryan had broken down her front door with his fists.
"that's not happening Jade, because I'm not going back without you and my son" Adryan says,
stressing the last words to prove a point.
"We can do this the easy way or the hard way Jade" he continues speaking "either you come back with
me, to our pack willingly, or I can throw you over my shoulder and take you back by force. Your choice."
He finishes speaking with a wicked glint in his eyes.
"You wouldn't" her teeth grit together as she stares at him angrily. 'He wouldn't do that would he?' She
thinks to herself. But his glinting eyes held promise, he was enjoying this, she could tell. He knew that
he had cornered her, wanting to get what he wanted, and that was to get her and their son to his pack.
She also didn't fail to notice how he had said our pack instead of his. Which made her want to snort,
because his pack wasn't hers at all. The Blood Moon Pack wasn't her pack. It was Evergreen Forest
Pack, which sadly didn't exist anymore so she was most probably a rogue now. A free wolf even.
Surprisingly her wolf, Kira had been silent so far. Which confused Jade because normally Kira was a
chatty one.
Her shoulders slump in defeat as she weighs her options, and the only thing she could come up with
was going back with him willingly.
"Okay" the words leave her lips, just a mere whisper because she hated it. She hated giving into his
wants. Most of all she hated him getting his way.
A victorious smile appears on his face, infuriating her further.
"Smart choice" he speaks, looking into her eyes "you have ten minutes to back your and his
essentials." He says, leaning back and turning away from her.
"What—, I —" she starts to argue but he cuts her off.
"9 minutes and 40 seconds remaining" he speaks "and don't try to escape because I'll find you, again"
he speaks the last words with his head tilted so that his eyes would meet hers. A slight warning in
them.
'Dammit' She thought, with anger burning inside her.
"I'll be waiting outside" with that words said, he leaves her room.
▪
Jade had to lay a sleeping Adonis onto her bed in order for her to collect their belongings, Adonis and
her clothes were stuffed in a huge duffel bag within two minutes, and lastly Adonis' car seat.
The ten minutes Adryan had given her was over within the time she was done packing their belongings
and walking out with Adonis' in her hand, just like before. She had dragged and placed the huge duffel
bag near her front door, no not her front door, where front door was supposed to be.
Now absent since some one couldn't control their caveman tendencies. She rolls her eyes at that.
When she walked outside her apartment, she was stunned to say the least. She hadn't expected there
to be so many people out here. But now, as she took in the scene infront of her, she could see roughly
around twenty werewolves surrounding the front of her apartment, some even walking back and forth
from the back of her apartment.
'So he had come prepared' She thought you herself.
There were three SUV's precent, all of them black in colour, blending into the night perfectly. The rest of
the wolves might have travelled here in their wolf forms.
Her anger rises when she sees the figure leaning so casually onto the sides of one of the black SUV's,
looking at the wolves that were walking back and forth.
She starts walking towards him, wanting to give him a piece of her mind.
