Chapter 127: Bonus Story–Keep This For Me, Please-Part 1
I enjoyed the moment in my mate’s arms as he showered me with sweet kisses. When we pulled apart, Soren noticed the candles all around the room.
“What’s so special tonight?” Before I could answer, it was as if Soren suddenly sensed something and he creased his brow. “Mila, are you okay?”
Smiling brightly, I looked down at my belly. “I’m more than okay. It’s been a great day today. I finished with my work at the clinic, you’re walking again, and Thomas found us. I thought it was worth a little celebration.”
Soren’s expression relaxed and finally, he agreed. “Indeed, it has been a good day.”
Dressed simply, all he wore was a black t-shirt and some black sweatpants. Yet, he still managed to look like a model ready for a photo shoot. It never mattered what he wore—he made his clothes look good, as always.
I pressed my head to his chest. Naturally and smoothly, both of his arms came around me. His embrace was warm and powerful and I knew they would protect me and our baby from any harm.
I just didn’t know how much longer I would be able to stay like this with him.
Breathing in his scent, I pushed the unhappy thoughts away and forced myself to enjoy his presence at this moment.
Burying my face into his muscular chest, I indulge myself in his delicious scent mixed with a hint of alcohol taste from the beer.
Soren kissed the top of my head. “What are you thinking about?”
“Um, about how lucky I was to have you as my mate,” I murmured honestly.
Soren chuckled, “Good answer.”
Meanwhile, he slipped his arms around me and took a few steps to the left.
“What are you doing?” I asked.
Soren just kept moving, pulling me along with him. “Guess…”
There was no music, so it took me a moment to realize he was dancing with me. We held each other and I followed his steps.
The warm, flickering light of the candles filled the room with a golden, romantic glow. Moonlight shone in through the open window and the soft scent of flowers wafted in.
It really was a gorgeous night. A perfect night.
I lifted my eyes and looked into Soren’s, where I found my own reflection. He looked down at me with a soft, doting smile, and I knew I was all he saw at the moment.
“Have you missed me?” he purred in a deep, smooth voice against my ear, sending pleasant chills down my spine. I flushed a little and looked down.
Soren cupped my cheeks and lifted my face. He swooped down and kissed me passionately on the lips. Moaning, I wrapped my arms around his neck.
Immediately, he scooped me into his arms and growled.
I gasped, clinging to his neck. For a moment, I was worried that he wouldn’t be able to hold me because he had only just started walking again, and I’d gained weight from the growing baby, but he hardly seemed to notice.
He carried me to the bed and laid me down on the comfortable, silky pillows, moving his fingers under the hem of my nightdress.
“You set the room up quite well,” he praised with a light chuckle, “so you deserve to be rewarded.”
His fingers ran up my inner thigh, caressing the inside of my leg up and down, and slowly getting higher and higher until he reached my swollen clit.
Gasping, I leaned back on the pillows, arching my back slightly.
He chuckled and licked my earlobe. “You smell so good…”
The hot air from his breath set my body on fire as he started kissing and sucking my neck while his fingers stroked my p***y lips and slid deeper into my folds.
I shuddered and grabbed the comforter, balling my hands into fists around the poofy fabric. Tingles ran up my legs and straight into my core that was throbbing with desire.
He brushed his fingers over my aching clit, slowly circling my little nub.
“Mmm!” I grabbed Soren’s shirt, almost tearing a hole in the fabric.
He kept rubbing. My legs trembled and I closed my eyes, writhing around on the bed.
Pressure and pleasure built in my abdomen; my insides clenched. Heat spread through my body as I melted into the pillows, letting him take me to a climactic height.
“Soren…Soren…”
I called his name, but then suddenly he stopped, leaving me still trembling with pleasure. Wanting to beg him to give me more, I squinted one eye open. When I realized he was undressing, my eyes raked over his smooth skin and his toned muscles and couldn’t move away.
“Do you like what you see?” he teased.
“Very much,” I sighed as I reached out to him, and couldn’t wait any longer to feel the warmth of his body again.
“Good to hear,” he smiled dangerously as he hovered over me.
Grabbing the hem of my nightdress, he slid it up my body. The silky fabric sent shivers over my skin, gooseflesh springing up on my arms and stomach. He slipped his arm around my back and held me close.
Then his tongue parted my lips and claimed every inch inside of my mouth. I put my hands on the back of his head, tangling in his hair while responding to him with equal passion.
His hands roamed around my waist and suddenly grabbed my hips. My soaked p***y ached for him.
“Please…don’t make me wait another second!” I moaned.
His eyes darkened and without any hesitation, he pushed his hard, throbbing c**k inside of me, stroking my core. My tight ring of muscles clenched around his quivering member.
“You’re so f*****g tight! How did you do it?”
“Wha—-Oh—Soren—Ahh…”
“How could you make me feel so f*****g good?!” he growled.
“Oh…” I rolled my hips in time with his thrusts, all the pleasure and passion blossoming in me again.
“Say my name!” he ordered.
“Soren…” I moaned as he thrust harder and faster.
“Again!”
“Soren! I…”
He nuzzled his face in my neck and I saw his throat just below my mouth.
“Tell me what you want.”
“S-Soren,” I gasped, hugging him tighter. “I want to mark you!”
Soren growled, thrusting faster. He tilted his head, exposing more of his neck. His faint smile and his heavy panting told me that he wanted to bear my mark as much as I desired to mark him.
I clung to him, my core stirring with molten lava. Panting, I bit into his neck, marking him as my own.
He groaned and his arms tightened around me. His c**k trembled and thrust faster and faster.
“Soren…Soren…” I cried. I couldn’t think of anything other than being overwhelmed by waves and waves of pleasure that he brought me.
“Say you’re mine!” he commanded.
My body moved with his, wanting more of him. There was nothing in the world I couldn’t give him.
“Yes,” I cried, “I’m yours! All yours!”
“Ah—” He sighed and filled me with his seed.
My body shook with pleasure as an orgasm rocked through me.
Sighing, I cradled Soren’s head against my breast.
He breathed heavily. Then, slowly, he touched his neck and his body shivered against me.
Our bond strengthened and it was unbreakable.
Would it be strong enough for me to feel it even after he left this realm? Would I still sense my mate even if he was in another place that was far beyond my reach?
I turned on my side, getting comfortable with pillows propping me up in a few places. Soren slipped his arms around me, pressing his chest to my back. He nuzzled the back of my neck and kissed my shoulder, my collarbone, and then my breast and my heart.
“I love you, Mila.”
Tears sprang to my eyes and trickled down my cheeks. “I love you too.”
He tightened his arms around me, his hands rubbing gently against my large stomach. Soren peppered my neck and shoulder with kisses. He tucked my head under his chin.
“Sleep now, Mila…”
I heard the exhaustion in his voice.
I snuggled against his chest and let myself enjoy his embrace. If this was the last night we spent together, I wasn’t going to waste it.

My eyes fluttered open and I immediately looked toward the window. The sky was turning gray. It was just before dawn.
Soren lay next to me, breathing evenly. It was really rare for him to be asleep once I woke up. Or for me to wake up before him.
I unclasped the Moonlit Crystal necklace and put it around Soren’s neck. Now, he wouldn’t have to ask me for it. Then, gently, I untangled myself from his arms and got out of bed as I grabbed one of my books for expecting mothers and sat in the chair across the room, reading, waiting for Soren to wake up.
When he sighed heavily, I looked across the room.
Soren stretched and his arm fell onto my side of the bed. His arm moved around and suddenly, he sat up, fully alert and awake.
When his eyes fell on me, he sighed and relaxed into the pillows again.
“Why are you up so early?” he asked.
His brow creased and he grabbed the necklace around his neck.
“And why is this on me?”
Slowly, I closed the book and sat up straighter. “Soren, I think we need to talk.”
Soren narrowed his eyes and frowned. “I’m not sure I like that tone this early in the morning. Mila, you’re scaring me…”
Smiling, I shook my head. “Don’t be. There’s nothing to be scared of.”
“Hmm, okay, then what do you want to talk about?”
Soren got up and put on some sweatpants. His strong, sculpted chest remained in full view and I bit my lip as my eyes automatically traced over his muscles.
“First, I need to apologize. I did overhear some of the conversation you had with Thomas last night.”
Soren arched an eyebrow at me. “It’s okay, Mila. I figured that sooner or later; we’d have to talk about it, I mean, my past.”
“Yeah, sooner or later…” I muttered. “I know you’ve been wanting to go back to your home realm for over ten years. Where you’re from is mysterious to me, but that doesn’t change the fact you want to go back. At least, for a visit. Right now, there is the perfect opportunity. And I don’t want you to miss it. Like Thomas said, who knows when the next time will be.”
I spoke quickly. I wanted to get it all out before I had the chance to talk myself out of it.
Soren frowned. “Mila, do you not understand that you’re my mate? Why are you trying to send me away?”
“I understand. And I couldn’t be more grateful to the Goddess that you’re my mate. But that’s why we are talking about this.”
I sighed and glanced down, worrying my hands in my lap.
“Soren, I’ll always be here for you. I’m not going anywhere and I don’t want to run away like before. We have so many years ahead of us, if and when you choose to come back—”
“Mila!”
He tried to interrupt but I continued, “You have no idea how hard this is for me, Soren.”
I stood up and went to Soren. My hand brushed over the Moonlit Crystal that hung around his neck.
“Keep this for me, please?”
Soren sighed, his eyes fixed on me and his brow creased.
Nodding, I headed for the door when he didn’t say anything. Just as I reached for the knob…
“Mila, wait! Come back!”
I took a deep breath and plastered a smile on my face, turning to face him.
“Don’t worry, I’m only going out to run some errands. I’ll be back tonight. I… can’t bring myself to help you pack… I’m sorry.”
Tears warmed in my eyes and I turned away, walking out the door.
I could feel Soren’s eyes still on me as I left but I had no idea what he was thinking. Consciously, I shut down the mindlink because I knew this wasn’t easy on either of us. Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.
He would need some space to make up his mind, and I would need to escape the house before running back and begging him to stay.
