His to Save

Chapter Fourteen - feeling something

I quietly and reluctantly followed Damien up the stairs as we held our breaths, the sound and smell of wolves surrounding us. The last thing we needed was to be caught by them, Dagger had warned me what would happen if we were to cross paths again, and I didn't doubt that the werewolves already knew he was alive and well.

But unfortunately there wasn't another town for miles around, and rest was going to be important, so I just had to suck it up, it didn't mean I had to be happy about it.

Damien quietly put the key in the door as he opened it and pulled me in, gently shutting it behind us. I glared at him as I shook off his hand and I turned to look at the bed and I let out a low groan,

Of course a single bed and no other space. You would think after all I had done for this couple they could have given us an extra blanket or pillow or anything.

Damien chuckled as he saw me glaring at the bed, "Guess I'm your new cuddle buddy, promise I don't bite. Too hard" he said winking as my eyes flashed red in annoyance.

"Keep on dreaming asshole" I growled as I stormed into the bathroom, "I'm going to use the water first" I stated as Damien shrugged sitting on a small chair the windowsill, "Go for it" he said not even bothering to look at me as I slammed the door shut,

I stripped quickly and turned the water on, sighing in relief as it began to slowly pour, well at least they had that. I quickly scrubbed my whole body as I didn't want to be a complete arse and use up all the water,

I froze instantly, a chill rushing down my spine.

What the fuck was I thinking? Why did I care about not being a dick? What was going on with me, why was I caring at all.

It had happened earlier as well, a painful sensation in my chest when Damien had talked about having a family, gods I needed to get a fucking grip.

I turned around to grab a towel as I cursed, of course I forgot one, fucking typical.

I opened the door quietly, taking a quick glance to see if Damien was still sitting down. He had called through the door not too long ago to say he had gone to hunt and hopefully he wouldn't be back yet.

I took a step out of the bathroom as I spotted the towels on the chair he was sitting on before I got into the bath.

Arsehole, he did that on purpose.

As I reached them I heard the door open and a low whistle escape Damien's mouth, "Twice in one day? Lillian you are really treating me" he said as I growled and dropped the towel in my hand turning to him, my naked body still wet from my shower.

Damien's smile instantly dropped as the apple in his throat bobbed, his pupils dilating.

I tilted my head up smirking as I took another step towards him, and he froze, not daring to move as I continued forwards. Soon I was directly in front of him, and I could hear a slight strain on his breathing as he clenched his fists.

I slowly walked my fingers up his chest as a wicked smile appeared on my face, "I'm so sorry Damien, is there something you wanted to say?" I breathed as my fingers reached his neck,

"Go on, you don't need to be nervous around me. What was it you were saying?" I teased as I ran a nail down his jugular vein, his whole body vividly jerking against my touch,

"Oh now you're all quiet" I pouted, "That's not much fun" I mocked as I ran my finger over his jaw line, however I shocked myself when I felt a warm sensation spill into my stomach and spread out all over my body, something I hadn't felt in a while.

However, I didn't want him to know I had felt something, I was more confused than anything else.

Why the hell was I feeling something now?
