A Kiss For Your Freedom
Chapter 8

I really like what it does to me. I place my hand on this trace and begin to immerse myself in this new project, this warmt does me good, it's pleasant and gentle. The hours go by and I'm making good progress, but I'm one of the first to leave th office with my file under my arm. I can always work from home while waiting for him, although it's not really necessary, since five minutes after I arrive, he's already there. - Admit it, you've missed me already.” he says as he walks past my door. ~1 admit it. I already missed you. The next thing I know, those lips are mine again, and that's all that matters. POV Dorian I should never have done it, I know. I had no right to, yet as she begged me, I couldn't resist. She didn't ask any questions about the bite mark, nor about this strange mark it leaves. I felt him touch her several times today. I'd forgotten what it fe like, I'd forgotten how good it could feel. She wears a scarf around her neck, probably to hide her from others, but I want to see her. My fingers untie the fabric as slides across the floor before I let them run over her mark. She shivers, sighing against my lips as I ask, - Does it hurt, darling? ~ No, on the contrary, it's pleasant. It's as if a wave of warmth is flowing from it. It's really very soft. - Good, I'd hate to hurt you. Her cell phone rings, but she doesn't feel like answering it; on the contrary, she rests her head against my chest as I close my arms around her. We've only been apart for a few hours, yet it feels like an eternity since I've felt her against me. My Wolf is starting to react to this bond. After all, I've marked her, so that makes her my companion. I don't even know he to explain things to her. I don't know how to explain to him that his life has just turned upside down, or even how to tell him that he's going to try to see her again and that there's little chance of it going well. He'll want to kill me to get her ba I hold her a little tighter as she lifts her head to look at me. The blue of those eyes anchors itself in mine. - Is something wrong, she asks? - On the contrary, darling. I haven't felt this good in a very long time. She grabs my hand and leads me into the living room. ~ Would you like a drink? - To tell you the truth, I must admit I'm more interested in feeling you against me. - It can be done,” she says, smiling at me. Her mark is beautiful. The pattern begins to form, to take shape on her skin. She sits astride me, leaving me free to obser her. - You're really beautiful” 1 say helplessly. I return the compliment, dark-haired beauty. The way he smiles at me makes me sit up slightly. I pass a hand behind her neck, letting my thumb caress her mark befor kissing her. She's not the one the Moon Goddess first put in my path, but my Wolf and I have chosen her. We'll defend her we'll take care of her. No one will ever hurt her. Night begins to fall as we decide to place our order. Picking up her mobile, she grimaces slightly and sighs. I place my har on her thigh in a gesture meant to reassure. - Don't worry,” she says, not realizing that I haven't said anything. 1 left my ex shortly before I met you, but he's a bit insistent. He'll get over it, especially since I don't answer him. He'll get bored eventually. I can't help smiling. Little by little, she'll understand, she'll realize that what's going on between us has nothing to do witl these previous relationships. - Pizzas," she asks. - Pizzas,” I say, placing my lips on her mark. She trembles slightly as she closes her eyes. - It's amazing how good it tastes when you touch it.” she says, tilting her head. - Believe me, darling, it's as good for me as it is for you. Fifteen minutes later, the delivery man arrives and we sit down in front of the TV as I pull her into my arms. It's a lovely evening. She tells me about her job. She works in advertising, which explains the size of her apartment, and asks me questions about what I do for a living. I tell her about my passion, which fortunately for me became my job after I left my pack. I've always loved working with n hands, especially wood. So it was quite natural for me to become a cabinetmaker. I don’t produce many pieces, but they sell well and that's more than enough for me to live on. - Will you show me what you do? ~ When you come this weekend, I'll give you a tour of my workshop, darling. - 1 can't wait to see it, especially as I've already arrived late this morning and my sister has entrusted me with a new customer. A big one. I'm going to have him on my back until the presentation,” she says with a sigh. - 50 how about I pick you up tomorrow night when you get off work. You pack a bag and we head to my place to spend tf weekend. I'll bring you back Monday morning if you like. ~1 can come by car!’ she says. - And deprive me of two trips where you'd be glued to me? Not a chance, love. - Okay. Works for me,” she says, smiling at me. A few minutes later, we're back in her room and when she finally falls asleep, naked against me, she doesn't know she's made me the happiest of Wolves. POV Emma After a good shower together and a good breakfast. I quickly pack a backpack before he drives me to work. He stops his bike in front of my box and removes his helmet while I do the same. I'l pick you up here tonight, baby,” he says before kissing me. - See you tonight, handsome,” I say, leaving his lips. I watch him walk away and walk through the door to find my sister waiting for me, smiling. - Now I understand why you were late yesterday,” she says. - No comment. - And the scarf is to hide the hickeys? - You've got it all figured out,” I say, moving on. Now, I've got some work to do for your famous big client. - Okay, I'll let you work. But I'll find out more about your mysterious biker. I smile and walk away. She's always been curious, but she’s my big sister, so it's only natural she'd ask questions. I lock myself in my office and get back to work. This is one of the biggest projects I've ever done. I can't afford to miss a beat. Hours go by without me realizing it. I raise my head and feel a gentle warmth spreading from my neck. My fingers run ove this strange bite. It's amazing how sensitive this area is. My thoughts immediately drift to Dorian. I can’t wait to see him again, it seems he's the only one who matters since I met him. My mobile rings and I see Melissa's name on the screen. ~ Hi!" she says cheerfully. How would you like to have a drink with your best friend tonight? -1 can't, I've got a dark-haired guy coming to pick me up after work to take me to his place for the weekend. - Well, you two don't leave each other. 1 feel good when I'm with him and I have to say that's all that matters. - 50 1 have no reason to worry about you? - You don't. I really don't. I like being with him and he likes being with me. We get along well and we have fun. - Perfect. I was sure this festival was a good idea. - And you were right. So if you're done congratulating yourself. 'm going to grab a quick bite to eat before I get back to work. My sister gave me a huge file and I've only got one month to get it all done. - Okay, but call me after this weekend, okay? ~ 1 will. I hang up and leave the office to get myself a sandwich, which I quickly devour before getting back to work, and finally, in the middle of the afternoon, Dorian writes to me. “I can be there in an hour. Is that too early for you?” Of course it's not too early. I'm finding it harder and harder to concentrate. I want to see him, feel him. “I'll be ready in an hour, handsome.” Immediately, a long shiver leaves this bite to spread throughout my body. “See you in an hour, beautiful” I start putting my things away before heading for the bathroom. Facing the mirror, I untie my scarf and contemplate this mark on my skin. It seems to be changing. I run my fingers over it. It's not painful, but it doesn't feel the same as when he touches it. The door opens and I reposition the fabric. It's as if it's my secret, our secret, although I don't know what it means. I return to my office and finish tidying up before going outside. I'm engrossed in my laptop when a voice startles me. - At least I can see you're okay, that you're still alive. {jump slightly at the sound before answering. ~ What are you doing here? - You're not answering my calls or my texts. ~ We're not together anymore. Stop calling me, stop hanging on. Turn the page. I start down the stairs when he grabs my arm a little too tightly for my liking. My bite stings slightly, but the sound of his motorcycle makes my head spin. He stops just short of me before removing his helmet. His gaze passes over the hand resting on my arm. I jerk away. - 50 you've already replaced me," he says, his voice full of anger. - You and I have nothing more to say to each other. I've made that clear to you. Now forget me," I say, approaching Doriar He takes another step towards me, but Dorian’s gaze freezes him in place. He clenches his fists and lowers his head. ~ Lend me your beauty,” asks Dorian. - Ready, handsome,” I say, climbing up behind him. I put on my helmet and wrap my arms around his waist as he starts off. We pull out of town and into the countryside. I admit I rarely get the chance to get away from the city, but the ride is pleasant and feeling his body against mine is well worth the trip.
