Chapter 40 - Rational Thinking

Okayyy soooo…he got the card and now it seems neither of them wanted to move.

As they stare into each other's eyes, completely lost.

In that moment Diviya wanted to tip toe and wrap her hands around his neck pulling him down for his lips to meet hers and kiss him till her lips were raw.

However she knew THAT could never be rational thinking and actions. So instead she pulls back her fingers and broke the silence when she says "ok then, well have a goodnight... will I see you tomorrow?"

The last part was a question, she really wanted the answer to. She felt like she needed to see him again, tomorrow preferably, the sooner the better.

"Yes, you will little fighter..you can be sure of that..goodnight," he smiles down at her.

"Ok, good!" She says still standing in her spot, an enchanting smile on her face.

Yet neither of them moved.

Diviya tilts her head up to look at Adonis once more and in that second he had some how gotten closer to her and looks down at her with intense, smoldering eyes and he was so handsome.

His gorgeous blue eyes, his defined jaw, his built body. She was tempted to reach up and run her hands down his biceps and slide her hands across his chest.

He was so manly, so hot, so sexy, she wonders how she would feel in his arms, those big strong arms.

And again Diviya wanted to kiss him, she stares at his lips and subconsciously licks hers.

Adonis picks up on the movement and froze briefly. His lips slightly parts on its own.

But using the last bit of his strength he suddenly says, "sweet dreams." And with that he turns and goes to his room, opens the door, walks in, then closes the door behind him.

He leans on his door and rubs his hands down his face. How did he find the strength? He did not know but when she licked her lips it was almost his undoing.

Adonis finally move from the door and place the card on the table in his room next to his laptop. Then he made his way to the shower undressing as he goes.

Adonis was so hard for Diviya right now, he showered a long time and he got himself off again, three times, coming just as hard as he did this morning.

Then he dried himself off and went straight to bed grabbing his laptop.

He checks a few emails and send out a few orders, he had postponed the execution of the werewolf currently in the dungeon as he had a full day today.

That werewolf will be executed in the morning and he wanted it televised. He sent out the necessary emails and left instructions for Michael to arrange things in the morning.

He wanted everything ready by 10am.

He also sent out instructions for preparations to be made for Cathia's arrival tomorrow.

He inwardly grimaced at the thought of entertaining Cathia.

He then made arrangements for breakfast for Diviya and himself. He would inform her of Cathia's visit. He didn't want Diviya to be caught off guard in anyway in case they cross paths.

Also he wanted her present at the application of the lethal serum to the werewolf that attacked her.

He had it all planned.

Then he went through the rest of his emails responding as he goes, at least only the ones pertaining to his businesses and there was one from the council's secretary.

He opens it and found the suggested dates for the councils three day visit.

After he made notes and send out instructions now for the secretary he called it a night.

Adonis fell asleep and slept throughout the night like a baby.

Meanwhile Diviya is in her room, after Adonis went to his. She had closed the door then leaned on it trying to calm her heart beat.

It was frenzied, she recalls his parted lips and if he had stayed a second longer she thought she might have attacked his lips with her own.

She was thankful he left as she knew that was not rational thinking. This mate bond is no joke!

Diviya finally pulls herself away from the door and went to the bathroom and drew a bath. She wanted to soak in the bathtub for awhile, relax and unwind.

She leans over testing the water one more time ensuring it was the right temperature, then she got undressed.

Diviya takes off her wedges then, zips down her zipper- she wished Adonis was here to help her- and she steps out of her dress and got into the water after taking off her underwear and pinning up her hair.

She soaks for a while as her mind went back to one of the conversations with Michael reminding her that she has a lot of work to do. She realizes that she has to first fully accept she is not human and embrace who she really is and was meant to be.

She had to break down that wall she built to hide from her parents and the world.

She had to explore herself and really let go of all the mental blockages. Those convincing words she would have repeated so many times. In attempts to convince herself that she was human.

She really had her work cut out for her. But she was happy she got the opportunity to start the process today when she confessed to her dead parents while at the garden.

Being in that garden she felt a little close to her mom, that garden reminded her of her mother so much.

She could see her mom tending to her small garden back home. Diviya smiles.

Diviya thought of her home and the condition it must be in. She did not get to even go into her home. She made a mental note to find out from Agent Ward if it was a possibility.

She did not know the protocols for these things, and she questioned. Could she just go to her home? Or was it still under wraps due to the investigation?

She will find out.

Diviya was not keen on visiting right this very moment or this week. But she would eventually like to go get some keep sakes of her adoptive parents for the most.

At this point Diviya had soaked, scrubbed and got out. Then she went to the shower and rinsed.

After her shower she dried and change into a silk nightgown that she found in her very packed closet.

She spent the next hour running through her closet taking in all the newly packed clothing, accessories and everything else.

At least she had clothing for the next ten years she thought.

Bridget had really arranged things perfectly for Diviya.

The next morning….

Adonis was almost ready for the day and he wanted to inform Diviya about breakfast. He had already heard movements in her room earlier so he knew she was up already.

Clad in a navy blue khaki pants, white vest and brown pair of square tip shoe with phone in hand he knocks on her door.

Diviya had woke up this morning sweating and almost panting. She had a heated dream and now her pvssy was throbbing with need and she was so wet.

Her panties soaked and Diviya was tempted to try relieving herself but at this point wanting the real thing, the real experience.

Instead she got out of bed and made her way to the bathroom but not before unlocking the door to her room just in case breakfast came and she was still in the bathroom.

At least it can be laid out while she was in there.

Diviya then saunters to the bathroom, she brushes her teeth then got into the shower.

In the shower as she soaps and scrubs. A vision of Adonis' perfect lips, then his eyes, flashes in her mind.

She recalls the way he stared into her soul. The intensity of his gaze and she realized she was getting heated and turned on by him again, her body starting a steady heat from within.

Diviya immediately stops her mind from roaming and focus on today and what might be.

One thing she knew though is that she really needed to see him, she was yearning for him.

She guessed it was the mate bond.

Diviya continues her shower when in the next moment she felt HIM, like right there. And then there was a knock on the door.

"Come in, it's open!" Diviya shouts from the bathroom. She just knew it was him.

Adonis opens the door and immediately realize she was in the bathroom. He cursed under his breathe and was about to back track out of the room when the shower turns off and he heard the shower door open.

Suddenly he could not move from his spot.

However he manage to swing the door closed behind him. He didn't want anyone happening upon them and maybe seeing her in a towel. He growls lowly, that simply would not do.
