Melanie pov
"Nanny he hates me" I cry to my nanny as she combs my hair after taking a long shower.
I texted her to bring me some of my essentials plus i can't survive here without her.
She knows whatever I require without even me asking.
She came a while ago to clean and organize aidens room since am spending the night, also had the maids help her tidy the bathrooms and change the sheets just so I will be comfortable.
Sometimes I hate this condition because I can't do anything freely even the minor ones without freaking the hell out.
It compels me to feel like a prisoner and I can't break free.
"He'll come around honey, look at you" she points at my image in the mirror " who'll hate a girl like that?" she says and I smile a little.
"It was terrible, you should have seen the way he looked at me when jake was kissing me"
It's consuming my core, I want him to forgive me already but he's nowhere to be seen.
He left after our little moment and it's like he just disappeared.
"Give him time honey, you'll feel the same way if you were in his place," she says braiding my hair.
I love it when she does that, it's like massaging my scalp. So soothing.
Now that I think of it, I can't visualize Aiden kissing another girl while I watch.
That shit looks uncomfortable.
"Give me tips on what I should do to earn his forgiveness please" I give her my best puppy eye and she chuckles pinching my cheeks.
"You're so adorable " she laughs
" Aiden won't stay mad at you for long trust me"
I internally groan, she's not helping.
I just have to do it on my own then. Maybe I should google it.
No. The best way is to break up with jake and he will automatically forgive me.
Why didn't I think about that earlier? I have to prove myself to him.
It's late now so I will just wait for Aiden.
"What's going on in that pretty head of yours honey" nanny grace brings me back to reality.
"Mmh nothing" I lie
"Time for bed, up up " she pulls me out of my chair and I giggle, sometimes she handles me like a kid.
I frown " But he's not here yet" I argue
Am not going to bed without making peace with him. Even the bible is against it.
"Oh sweetheart, am sure he'll join you, he's working right now and when he's done he'll come to you trust me."let me just trust her and see what happens.
So I went to his bed getting in the white silky covers.
I love the softness of silk and also white because I can see if any dirt or stains escaped the laundry.
It keeps my mind at ease.
I couldn't sleep, I kept tossing and turning with no ounce of a nap.
My body was tired but my mind was restless, I knew I wouldn't be able to sleep without talking to him.
Seconds turned to minutes and minutes to hours and hours to a new day without the sight of Aiden.
I feel bad, so bad. Maybe he doesn't want me anymore. Getting out of bed, I head to the bathroom to prepare for the day.
Today am doing the right thing, hope it brings him back because the idea of losing him makes my heart ache.
AIDEN POV
I don't know what's wrong with me. I wanted my mate with me and now that she's here am doing everything to avoid her.
Yesterday my wolf took charge and I did things I know she was not ready for and now I can't face her because I don't know how she's gonna react.
I left. After what I did I just left her there crying and I feel so terrible about it. I didn't sleep last night even a little bit.
I stayed in my office all night and immediately it dawned, I went for a run and have been running for two hours non-stop, but it doesn't make me feel better.
I can't take the images of her beneath me, moaning my name repeatedly out of my mind.
The way her eyes gazed at me with need and amazement.How her soft skin felt under my touch and my lips.
I could never forget how her lips parted every time as her eyes eyed what I alone could do to her.
I crossed the line but it was a great sight to see. A sight for only my eyes to watch.
Am not mad at her anymore. I wouldn't be even if I tried and knowing right now she's in my bed drives my wolf and i crazy.
I wanna feel her body again but this time I want her to initiate it.
I don't want her to have a feeling that am pushing her to do things she's not comfortable with.
I decide to go back because I have a pack to train immediately at 7.
I find her nanny in the kitchen and she signals for me to come over when she sees me.
Was she waiting for me?
"Come here son" she beckons for me and I sit in the chair next to her.
"How are you?" She inquires
"Fine, I guess," I say rubbing the back of my neck nervously. She must know what I did.
"You know she stayed awake all night waiting for you and she thinks you hate her"
"Why would I hate her" I can't believe she thought that
"You left all night without a single word to her, what do you expect" she scolds
Makes sense.
"I didn't know how to face her, I thought she would be mad at me"
"See the problem with you young people? You keep assuming things instead of talking them through.
Communication is the key to a healthy relationship"
"That girl is so sensitive, she hates hurting people she cares about. I remember when that boy asked her out, she couldn't even say no because she thought she would hurt him. I know that's the reason she's dragging the breakup, just trust her okay?" she asks
"I trust her. It's just, you know how possessive we are with our mates" I reason with her
"I know son, but my baby hasn't experienced love all her life, you know the situation with her parents right?" I nod
"She was forced to grow up so fast, never experienced childhood, she has a fragile heart and I beg you to take care of her.
I trust you to give her the love she deserves and to treat her well" she sighs
"I will, she's my everything"I assure her
"Now go talk to her, here is your breakfast, eat together" she hands me a tray full of food.
She must love Melanie a lot, am happy there are people who care this much for her.
Who have always been there when I wasn't?
"Thank you, grace" I appreciate her gesture
"You are welcome dear, now go" she shoos me off and I chuckle.
My room is on the last floor, the entire 5th floor is the alphas chamber so I take the stairs one by one buying time as I try to think of what to say.
I don't even recognise my room when I enter, everything is rearranged and cleaned up, am not a messy person but from the looks, my mate is a clean freak.
Her scent lingers around but she's not in the room.
Maybe she's in the bathroom, I place the tray on the table and settle on one of the couches.
20mins later, my angel walks out looking as lovely as ever with a new pair of uniforms.
I remember tearing the one she had yesterday in pieces. I will replace it.
I don't like how short her skirt is, her hair is tied up in a tight ponytail, and she has rings adorning her ears and fingers.
She's so beautiful.
She sports me and freezes in her steps while I just stare at her speechless.
"Come" I gesture for her to come over and she doesn't hesitate.
Watching as she rush her steps towards me makes me feel guilty, she stayed all night waiting for me yet I was being a big coward.
I pull her onto my lap in a straddling manner.
Her short skirt pulls up granting me a peek at her white lacy undies.
They're too short for my liking but now is not the right time to talk about that.
" Babe, am sorry I have been acting like a jerk, forgive me please", I cup her cheeks staring at her blue eyes pleadingly
"No, am sorry I hurt you Aiden, I really am," she says remorsefully
"I promise it will never happen again"
" Sorry for yesterday, my wolf completely lost it. I know you weren't ready for that yet I was hard on you" I say and her whole face turns red making me chuckle.
She's so cute.
"It's okay" she blushes avoiding eye contact with me.
"So we good?" I ask
"Yeah," she mumbles grinning.
She has a contagious smile, you just can't help it.
I just pray our happy moments won't be short-lived.
