Chapter 670 - MY LITTLE FLOWER
If Jedrek didn't want her, at least his beast still had a feeling for her and Jedrek couldn't completely disregard his beast's desire for his mate, that was what Jedrek told her earlier.
Thus, Lilac would bet on this.
If she couldn't fight Jedrek or take his soft side, maybe she would be able to get what she wanted from his beast.
Lilac could sense Jedrek's body tensed up because of their closeness and she knew right away that she had this affect on him.
"I want to get out of here," Lilac spoke again. "Can't you let me leave?" this time Lilac stared into Jedrek's blue eyes.
It was clear to see that what Lilac did now had stirred some emotion on his cold fa?ade face. However, it was not enough for Jedrek to agree immediately.
He was staring at Lilac. Didn't say anything. Didn't move.
Focusing on the pleasant spark between them, Lilac put aside her ego and resentment that she felt earlier for Jedrek and tiptoed to kiss his chin.
"Let me go, okay?" Lilac tilted her head, staring at him innocently and expectantly. She was waiting for his reaction, but when she got none, the girl pouted her lips and looked crestfallen. "I want to go… I have been inside this room for as long as I can remember," she muttered under her breath.
If Lilac was grumbling internally, it didn't show on her face as she continued with her newfound ability.
"Please…" Lilac said softly, even her voice slightly trembled, showing her vulnerability.
Once again, Lilac tiptoed and this time she planted a kiss on his lips. Jedrek felt surprised and Lilac immediately pulled away. Bit her lips timidly.
Is it okay to do that? Lilac thought, suddenly felt self- conscious with what she had done.
However, Jedrek drew his mate closer. He put both of his hands on either side of Lilac's and kissed her back.
That caught Lilac by surprise. She wanted to pull away, but Jedrek's grip on her body was too strong. He pressed his body closer to her, so close until Lilac could feel his heartbeat.
"My little flower." His voice was deep and husky, the vibrations made Lilac shudder involuntarily.
It was her, who initiated this, but at this point, she couldn't take it anymore.
But, then Jedrek stopped. He pulled away, concern in his dark eyes. He brushed his finger against Lilac's cheek and it came away wet.
Was she crying?
For some time, Jedrek stared at the tips of his fingers which were now wet with lilac tears. He stepped away.
"Why are you crying?" that was the same deep and husky voice like before, but lack of warmth. He was distancing himself.
"You hurt me," Lilac whispered, her warm tears fell on her cheek. It seemed, being imprisoned for long time, had finally taken a toll on her. She was having a mental breakdown now.
Jedrek gritted his teeth upon hearing her answer, but when he replied, his voice sounded toneless. "I did and I will if I have to."
After saying that, Jedrek turned around and left, leaving Lilac alone, and even though she knew that she would never be able to open the door, Lilac still walked over and tried to turn the doorknob, only to find out it was locked like she had expected.
***
Jedrek opened his eyes and stared at the white ceiling above his head. He raised his finger and watched attentively, but there was no trace of Lilac's tears there, after all, what had happened was an illusion.
However, when he turned his head, he found Lilac was sleeping beside him, her brows knitted tightly and tears escaped from her close eyes.
Once again, Jedrek wiped her tears away, but this time for real and Lilac whimpered softly when he touched her.
He knew, but at the same time he didn't understand what he felt for her. Everything was a mess. He wanted to push her away, but also wanted to keep her as close as possible.
"Jedrek."
Jedrek whipped his head, startled, when he heard his name was being called. He even didn't realize since when Eaton was there, as he was in his deep thought.
"Hm?" Jedrek shifted back his attention to Lilac and adjust her blanket before he got out of bed.
In the other hand, Eaton watched Jedrek every movements, as he leaned his back against the frame door.
"You should stop it." Eaton frowned. "Don't you afraid, the moment she wakes up, she will hate you and there will be no chance for you to make it right?"
Jedrek smiled faintly. "She came here because she hates me. If she will continue to hate me in the future, that is not a big news for me."
"She is your mate." Eaton couldn't believe it there was shifter who treated their own mate this way. As the Alpha, the pull of the mate bond should be enough for Jedrek to relent, yet here he was, torturing himself and his other half.
"I am aware." Jedrek nodded. "And I killed her when she was only a few days old."
"Jedrek." Eaton called his name in warning tone, he grimaced.
Eaton remembered the day Jedrek gave the order, they were having a fierce argumentation, but this Lycan was too stubborn to talk to, yet now, he was given a second chance, but he screwed it again.
"You should know that you are not walking down this path alone." Eaton sighed helplessly. "You are not your father and it is our nature to be with someone who is destined to be with us."
Jedrek walked toward the door, but stopped because Eaton didn't want to move away. "You are right, I am not my father." His voice sounded very rigid. "But, her presence was never in the plan and never will be."
"She wouldn't be here if you didn't have a plan for her." Eaton knew he said the right thing when Jedrek shoved him away to avoid this conversation. "The castle is under attack."
