Another update? Haha, Enjoy while it last!

Adonis POV

I was sitting with everyone as they tried to tell me all the ways I could 'woo' Osiris. Honestly I didn't want to do it! My ego took a beaten from his rejection. Sure, he didn't flat out reject me, but I had no other way to see it. I was too angry and sort of ashamed that I couldn't get one guy to want me to the point I just wanted to erase Osiris from my mind. Don't get me wrong, I still cared about him - I was fascinated by everything he did - the good and bad although I ever only saw the bad. Zion and Cyan were telling me how to be romantic and at this point I just tune them out lost in my thoughts.

Once in a while I would rub my chest, wanting to get rid of the sharp pain that was stabbing me but I couldn't. Ignoring everyone, I closed my eyes, trying unsuccessfully to block all thoughts of him. My eyes snapped opened when silence filled my living room. I turned to see what everyone was gazing at and my hurt contorted in fear. It was him! Yes I was afraid of him - he was capable of anything! His servant Nafre held him in her arms, his head on her shoulder but he slowly looked up, gazing around in shock. He was wearing black jeans and white long sleeve shirt. His hair was wet, water dripping down his neck, he looked sultry. He stood up and stared at Nafre, "why?" He asked her.

"It is the right thing." She tip toed and kissed his forehead dropping a small bag I didn't even know she was holding by his side. She looked directly at me, "take care of him because if he gets hurt I will peel your flesh off." She smiled and bowed to the others, disappearing right before our eyes, leaving her master staring after her.

I shouldered at what she promised - no wonder he was scary, the people he hung out with were extremely terrifying. Everyone gazed at him, waiting to see what he would say or do. I think they were just too shock to make a move. I looked around to see Zion, Ares, Cain, and Akem staring at Osiris, their mouths hanging open and drool coming out. What the hell!?

He never made a move; he just stood there soaking wet from head to toe. I was stubborn, if he didn't make the first move I won't either. I squirmed in my seat becoming extremely uncomfortable at the predatory look Zion, Cain, Akem, and Ares had in their eyes as they gazed at my mate, or was it former mate now? I couldn’t even feel the connection in the air.

I stared around at the others, frowning at the admiration and adoration look coming from the current betas. Our fathers, Helios and Cyan were the only ones with normal look on their faces, well if you can call staring with their mouths opened in shock normal.

I cleared my throat hoping to snap them from their thoughts. They snapped their eyes towards me, although Zion and the future betas still had that ‘I want to devour you’ look on their faces. What the hell has gotten into them? I wondered.

Finally, after what seemed like eternity, he turned towards me meeting my eyes. His purple gazed bore into mine and I saw him swayed, his eyes dropping in exhaustion. Not really knowing why I still care, I rushed to him, catching his falling body. I steadied him on his feet and attempted to walk away but he grabbed my hand, his hold very weak and soft. I stopped and although I didn't feel the tangles, an excited feeling rushed through me from his touch. I stood still waiting to see what he wanted. He locked eyes with me and step closer to the point where our chests were almost touching. My gazed dropped down to his red lips - they were full and perfect, I wanted to sink my teeth into them.  Everything about him screamed sultry, ethereal and enchanting.

I swallowed hard, removing my gaze from his full lips to his violet eyes. I watched him, unmoving as he leaned into me and soothingly attached his soft lips to my neck. I shivered, becoming instantly aroused and wanting him badly. Even without the bond, I was still irrevocably enticed by him. He bit my neck, letting his lips lingered there for a second. The affect was instantaneous as volt after volt of electricity passed through me. My knees buckled and I dropped down to the ground bringing him with me. I could feel our bond back, intact and more powerful than ever - he restored the bond. Removing his magical mouth from my neck, he gazed back into my eyes, smiling as the familiar feeling of being trapped in each other's gazed returned.
