Chapter 175


    Chapter 175


    Emerson raises a brow at Weston and not so subtly gives him a judgmental once-over,


    “Since when were you and Meredith text buddies?”


    He asked quietly. The usation in his tone sp i kes defensiveness in the beta. What? Did he think


    Meredith was too cool to talk to him? Is that what it was? It was no secret she was Emerson’s idol, but


    come on this was just downright mean. And the look of disgust on Emerson’s face like Weston was


    some roach scurrying in the dirt did more than just damage his ego. Weston straightens, puffing out his


    chest and tilts his chin up.


    “Since we made the group chat.”


    The ginger scrunches his brows together and looks over to Isaac who shrugs at him. He didn’t know


    what group chat he was talking about. In fact, neither of them did. As far as they were concerned,


    Noah, being a man that forgets he leaves his phone on do not disturb just to avoid talking to people,


    would no way work well in a group chat.


    “Group chat?”


    Isaac asks.


    “Group chat.”


    Isaac and Emerson stare at Weston silently. The two doubting his words.


    “Do you guys smell that?”


    Weston asks, sniffing the air for effects. He turns his head from left to right,


    “Smell the silent judgement?”


    Isaac blinks ever so slowly.


    “Did you really just quote Tony Stark?”


    “….Yes.”


    Emerson lets out a strangled sigh, shutting his eyes for a brief second. Peeling his lids open, he shot


    Weston a pointed look,


    “Don’t even think about going back up there. Just leave them alone. They’lle out when they get


    bored. It’ll be like yoga… kind of.”


    Weston frowns. Folding his arms over this chest, he raises a brow,


    “Yoga? That’s real funny, Em. Never knew under that cold exterior there was aedian.”


    Emerson rolls his eyes but ignores Weston’s remarks.


    “Next thing you know, you’ll be telling me Stefan and Laura Locksworth are here.”


    Emerson opens his mouth to respond but flinches when he senses something. A ripple of familiarity


    runs through his spine. Almost feeling the grip of panic coil around his throat, he slowly turns. His eyes


    are wide as he looked at Weston who was still running his mouth without a care in the world,


    “Stefan and Laura Locksworth are here.”


    Weston stops mid sentence and gives him an unimpressed look. Jutting out his bottom lip he narrows


    his eyes at him,


    “Okay, ha-ha very funny.”


    Emerson shakes his head.

    “No seriously.”


    Emerson lifts his gaze at Weston, whose smile was wiped off his face upon seeing his expression.


    “Your jokes are going a little far.”


    Westonughs nervously, panic beginning to rise in him. He shifts his weight on his other foot


    impatiently. The sudden gravity of Emerson’s solemn voice cloaking over him like deadweight. A wake


    up call he hoped was untrue.


    “That’s the thing. I’m afraid he’s not joking, West.”


    Weston whirls his head around and swallows when he sees the two figures approaching. A tall, built


    Alpha male with his lovely Luna by his side with a warm smile. Weston mps his mouth shut, rolling


    his lips in before popping them out. Nodding awkwardly at the arched brow of the Alpha, he sucked in a


    breath,


    “Well sh it.”


    ***


    “Don’t you think we should get out of bed?”


    I ask him. Raizel doesn’t acknowledge my suggestion and instead buries himself further into the crook


    of my neck. Thick arms were wrapped around my upper body in a warm, tight possessive grip. I’m


    almost surprised I didn’t find myself melding into him from how pressed together we were. The tip of his


    nose grazes down the curve of my nape before he decidedly settles at the junction. Shivers rake up my


    spine in surprise when his teeth nip at my shoulder.


    Goddess it felt heavenly.


    I tremble against him, his arms tightening their hold in response. He nestles into my body like I was a


    safe haven meant specifically for him- only him. The content little sighs he makes easing the worry still


    etched in the deep mess of my heart. The worry that somehow this peace wouldn’tst. And I’m not


    naive, I know it won’t. This short lived happiness I was indulging in won’t be permanent. But I would still


    do everything in my power to hold onto it.


    Looking down at the man clinging onto me, I let my eyelids fall halfway.


    This man would be the end of me.


    He ims me to be the death of him yet I feel like our roles are reversed.


    My heart pounds along with his as he rubbed my hip with his long fingers. Soothing circles drawn like


    invisible tattoos burn into my skin from his fingertips. The remnants of his body heat linger in the


    invisible shapes.


    Bruises in the shape of his hands- a ssh of blue and purple-y at my hips bare to anyone who’d


    see it. A colorful reminder of the activities we partook in just moments before. I wouldn’t dare say it, but


    I felt some kind of pride swell in my chest. To see the marks blossoming on my skin felt almost


    relieving? This man had marked me just as I did with him. I let my eyes map down his back. Hi ckeys


    and scratches and nail indents litter down his muscles and undoubtedly his chest. I felt myself blush.


    Was I really that aggressive?
