Chapter 67

I’m not going to lie, I’m in complete shock over what’s happened and being able to finally talk is a miracle in itself. According to Dr James, I would have healed eventually but Kai choosing to mark me, sped up the process. I got angry, I’ll admit but it’s all worked out in the end. Besides, now I can tell Kai how I really feel and I claimed him, the same way he claimed me. No more trying to protect me out of jealousy, no more just taking things lying down. Now I can really begin to stand up for myself. There’s going to be a new Winter, I decide. No more trying to please everyone else, or keeping quiet about what I want. That old Winter is gone. I’m going to be changing things up for the better.

Kai leads me out of the hospital room, still feeling guilty, and I tug on his hand and force him to look at me once we safely reached the grounds outside. I can’t deal with him looking like that. It’s frustrating me.

“Kai” I rasp out “stop, look at me.” God, please look at me for heaven’s sake.

He does, but he avoids my eyes and it’s irritating the hell out of me. Is he going to wallow in his guilt forever? He needs to get the hell over it, I’ve already forgiven the i***t. Even if he doesn’t really deserve it.

“I forgive you” I say hoarsely and he sighs, looking at me and running a hand through his hair. He looks frustrated with me.

“Has it ever occured to you, that sometimes you’re a little too forgiving. A little too kind” he complains “wouldn’t it be much better to torture me for a little by hating me and well, yelling at me when you’re able to” he finishes dramatically.

I give a raspy giggle. Somehow I can’t picture myself yelling at the big bad Alpha, like a harpy. It makes a funny image though.

“No” I whisper “I want a clean slate. You’re taking me out on a date” I tell him, poking his chest with my finger, a look of determination on my face. This is the least he could do. Take me out somewhere nice, let us finally start the transition forward and let go of everything horrible that happened in the past. Let us forge our future together.

OOoohhh a date, How awesome, good idea Winter. Make him take us somewhere nice. He still has to agree to it Sabriel.

He’ll agree, because otherwise I’m going to bite him, in a not so pleasant place that will make him limp for the next few days right between his legs. It will be my pleasure to do it as well.

That’s sadistic Sabriel and very unkind of you.

Thave other ideas I could do instead if that helps? But they all involve pain of some description and even removing his manhood.
