Alpha Ace and his Undercover Mate
Chapter 8
It has been a week since my encounter with Ace, and it has been horrible for us both.
Every time I crossed him, he always looked so pained, and his eyes were practically pleading with me to talk to him, but I couldn't.
All my life I've been through training, building up a pack that was broken, sleepless nights wondering how having a mom felt, but nothing I did was ever this hard.
I was glad for the long training hours. Even though I did nothing but 'observe', it really got my mind off things. When I was back at the house, I would either talk to Lilly, or watch movies till I fall asleep.
Today was meant to be my training day again, and I couldn't hide how relieved I was. I desperately needed to punch someone. Aiden had already woken me up, which was a habit of his, so I was currently getting ready.
I finished earlier than usual, so I went to my balcony to get some fresh air.
The six a.m wind hit me immediately, calming my senses instantly. I leaned against the bar as I watched the sun rise from behind the trees.
It filled the sky with mighty colours of red and splashed the clouds with endless rays of pink. It was bright and mesmerising as it invited me to stare deep into the horizon.
A delightful sigh escaped my lips as I got lost in it's relishing beauty.
"Beautiful, isn't it? "
I yelped in surprise as the voice startled me back to reality. I spun around, being faced by my one and only mate, Ace. I didn't say anything, just stared at him. He sighed, stepping further onto the balcony.
"I'm sorry I scared you, it's just that I was passing by, when Aiden asked me to call you. But I was knocking for a while and I didn't hear you so I thought you were hurt or something." I nodded in understanding after he explained himself, but now I was lost for words as I gazed at him.
I haven't heard him talk to me in a whole week, it had my heart racing and my wolf howling, after being pissed at me for days.
"I'll be right out," I said as I turned back to face the sunrise.
He didn't leave though, instead he joined me at the end of the balcony, leaning against the bar. He didn't try to initiate conversation, so I just stayed silent, enjoying the few minutes I had in his presence.
"You really like the sunrise, don't you? " He asked, looking at me with an admirable smile on his face.
"I really do, and sunsets too. Have you ever seen anything so beautiful? "
"I can think of something" He took a step closer to me, gazing at me with love-struck eyes. " Or someone" He whispered, moving a loose strand of hair from my face.
Once dormant butterflies erupted in my belly, as I involuntarily leaned into his touch. His eyes glistened with hope, as mine widened in realization.
Shit.
