Chapter 151

Zenovia

After much coaxing and convincing from me to both Sid and Drusilla, we went our separate ways.

We were an unusual team, but I knew Sid needed my help in running our pack, so at least he would not ditch me. Plus, he had no face to show to Callahan and tell him anything about my plan, because Callahan would tear his throat the moment he saw him again.

Drusilla, on the other hand, was a little concerning for me. I hoped she would remember everything I told her, my reassurances, and not go blurting out everything to Callahan.

I was going to tell him everything myself, just after I had the things needed to perform the plan.

The drive home was short because I drove like a madman. I had only said I would step out for a few hours, but the day had flown away with me doing loads of planning, all behind his back.

I sincerely hoped he would not hold it against me. I was just trying to help him.

I reached the gate of the mansion and quickly parked in the garage.

There was no sign of Callahan, so I wanted to quickly tiptoe my way toward my room and pretend I was asleep.

So I parked my car as quietly as possible. Just as I was closing the car door, I felt two hands enveloping me from behind. My initial instinct was to tense up, but as I recognized the touch, my body relaxed instantly. It was Callahan, the man I couldn’t resist.

I instantly melted into the embrace of the man I could not get enough of. His warm, protective embrace made my body shiver pleasantly as he buried his face in the crook of my neck.

“Where do you think you were going?” He asked, his breath fanning my ear.

“I thought it was not a good idea to disturb you so I wanted to just go to my room and sleep.”

His lips opened to kiss my ear as he whispered.

“God, I missed you”

And my body leaned back into his embrace, giving him more access.

“Did you just use the word God?” I teased and he took a pause.

I should not have tried to be cheeky. I felt him stiffen a little but then I squeezed his hand with mine and spoke.

“Hey, I was just joking. No need to feel bad.” I murmured as I felt his grip on me tighten.

“Who can feel bad when he has you in his embrace?” Callahan teased, and his lips suckled at my ear.
