Nn was on top of La as he rode her.
“Ah… f*ck! ” La moaned in ecstasy as they both came undone.Text ? owned by N?velDrama.Org.
nting a kiss on her lips, he muttered I love you to her, before pulling out of her, and then heid beside her.
They were currently at her apartment.
” I missed this ce a lot,” La confessed, cing her head on Nn’s chest, as he shook his head slowly.
The ce held a lot of memories, both good and bad.
Nn wrapped his arm around La’s shoulders, pulling her close. He understood what she was feeling, the bittersweet nostalgia of returning to a ce that had been both a sanctuary and a prison.
“It’s a lot to take in, isn’t it?” Nn asked, his voice gentle.
” Yes, but I guess I’m good.. ” she smiled.
” I think we should visit here with our child when she’s grown… ” La suggested as she looked at his face.
” Sure..” Nn shrugged his shoulders, not refusing her request.
“How was your childhood like Nn’?” She asked, using her fingertips to draw an imaginary line in his cheat.
Then she felt him stiffen. As if he just remembered a bad memory. She shouldn’t have said that.
“I’m sorry if you.. ” she began to apologize, but Nn cut her short.
” It’s nothing. It’s high time you knew about me” he reasoned. He had never told her anything about himself. La literally knew nothing about him, except for the fact that his first mate died.
“My childhood wasn’t what you would call ‘normal’,” Nn began, his voice taking on a distant, faraway quality.
“My father was an Alpha, a powerful and respected man. But he was also cruel and abusive. He ruled his pack with an iron fist, and I was the one who bore the brunt of his anger and violence.”
La’s eyes widened in horror, her hand going to her mouth.
“Oh, Nn. That’s awful. I had no idea.” La blurted out in surprise, who thought that he’d suffered abuse.
“Most people don’t,” he stated, his voice still distant.
“It’s not something I liked to talk about to anyone then ” he added and La muttered an oh.
” Ned was a mad king..” Nn emphasized as he chuckled. His father lost his mind just when he was crowned king.
“He had always been a ruthless man, but when he became king, something changed in him,” Nn exined.
“He became paranoid and erratic, ruling with fear and intimidation. He would have people executed on a whim, and his behavior became increasingly erratic and unpredictable.”
“And you were caught in the middle of all of that,” La said, her voice full of sympathy. “You must have been terrified.”
Nn nodded, his eyes haunted by the memories. “I was. But it made me strong. It taught me to survive, no matter what.”
“It was hell for me, I had no friends until I met Keisha. She was my only friend then and the only one who knew about all these.. ” he confessed and La finally understood when Keisha said there were lots of things she didn’t know about him.
She wondered whether he must have gone through in the hands of his father, that was what must have made him so cold and cruel.
“And your mother?” La asked. She wondered where his mother was when all these happened.
“My mother,” Nn began, his voice taking on a sad, wistful tone.
“She was a kind and gentle woman, theplete opposite of my father. She did her best to protect me from his wrath, but there was only so much she could do. She died when I was a child, and after that, I was at the mercy of my father’s rage.”
La’s heart broke for the young boy that Nn had once been, the child who had suffered through so much.
“You must have been devastated when she died,” she said softly.
” I was and then the beast brought in another woman and I was left to face two devils. I was just fifteen then. She abused me both emotionally and sexually and that went on for three years” he revealed and La stilled in shock.
“What!!” She eximed in horror, that was the height of it all. She could never imagine what he must have gone through during his childhood.
“It was a nightmare,” Nn said, his face calm like a tranquil. He didn’t look affected by it and he looked as if he had forgotten all about it
“I felt so alone, so trapped. I thought I would never escape, that I would spend my life in that dark ce. But then something happened that changed everything.”
La’s heart pounded in her chest, as she waited for him to continue.
“What happened?” she asked, her voice barely above a whisper.
Nn took a deep breath, gathering his courage.
“I met my first mate,” he said, a small smile ying on his lips.
“She was like a ray of sunshine, a light in the darkness but it neversted and the war came. It was as a result of my father’s stupidity that we were in a war. Many lives were lost. Including his. I was so d when I saw him die on the battlefield. ” Nnughed dryly. He was devoid of any emotions then. The man who made his life a nightmare was gone. He couldn’t be happier.
“Nevaeh my stepmother died too. It was my best day, till Vera’s body was brought to me” he paused as he looked at La.
“It’s okay..” she muttered assuringly as she caressed his face.
She felt so bad for him, from being abused by your father, literally raped by your stepmother, and then losing the one who made you feel whole again, that was too much.
Nn closed his eyes, savoring the feeling of La’s hand on his face. It was a smallfort, but it meant the world to him.
“Thank you,” he whispered, opening his eyes and looking into hers. “I’m sorry for dumping all of this on you, it’s a lot.”
“It’s okay,” La said, her voice full ofpassion.
“I’m here for you if you want to talk about it. Or if you just need someone to be here with you.”
” The truth is that I never wanted a child. I was scared of what the oue would be.. ” he began.
Hearing that Nn was scared was a new thing to La. He definitely knew how to mask his emotions well enough.
“What if I turn out to be a bad father, or even worse… ” he chuckled dryly. The fact that he’d treated La so badly made him no different from his father.
“Come on Nn, I’m sure you will be the best dad ever..” La assured.
“But what if I’m not?” Nn asked, his voice tinged with worry.
La reached out, taking his hand in hers. “You are nothing like your father,” she said, her eyes shining with sincerity.
“You are a kind andpassionate man, and you will be a wonderful father. I know it.”
Nn looked at La with intense emotions in his eyes, she was a rare gem. Hisforter.
” Come here, I know what will make you feel better… ” Laughed naughtily climbing on top of him.
” Stay still, I’ll take care of everything.. ” she smiled and leaned over to kiss him.
