Chapter 27
Happy CloudAn arm is placed on top of my belly, and a face is buried in my neck. The soft breathing he makes, his hot breath fanning my neck as his free arm goes underneath me, only to wrap it around my body and push me into him. The gesture is the sweetest, and even though I haven't opened my eyes yet, I know that this day is going to be a great day. My inside burns, as if a fire is starting to ignire and burn me more. Cloud is dangerous to me, I know it as a fact, and yet, it's crazy to think that him being dangerous to me is making the adrenaline rush, making me feel excited.
I open my eyes slowly. The warmth of the sun begins to float inside the room, and the room is beginning to light up as the sun shines through the thick curtains. Cloud scoots a bit closer to me and rests his chin on my shoulder, which makes me giggle as his stubble makes contact with my bare skin. My face turns to his, only to look at the man sleeping beside me. Cloud's hair is disheveled, sticking up everywhere, and his bangs are almost covering his closed eyes. His lips are slightly parted, looking kissable and pinkish and full. I study his face. He has become more handsome than ever, than the last time I saw him year ago. He looks mature than ever. Maybe it's because of dealing with the Rogues right now, or the fightings before. Maybe, being the Great Alpha is a hellish tough job, or role, that made him more mature. I lift my hands and brush my fingers across his jaw to admire his beauty and strong jaw. How can this man be my mate for heaven's sake? Why did the Goddess choose him for me? Cloud broke me, and now, even that fact, I'm letting it go because my reason is he's my mate. Crazy. I tried to be angry and mad and loathe him, so many times, but still, I can't. I can be mad at him for a day, but I could never hate him forever. I could never be mad, angry, or loathe him forever. This is probably the start of something new. It's cliche to say it, but who cares?
Slowly, Cloud opens his beautiful eyes and looks at me with a smile growing on his lips. There, written on his face, is the adoration he sees when he looks at me, and I've never been so happy before. He runs his nose across my jaw, and I bury the back of my head into the pillow as Cloud keeps tickling me.
"Is this even real?" He asks to himself slowly. There's a hint of groginess in his voice, but still, it sounds sexy when he says it, or when he speaks. He looks like he's seeing a different world, like he can't believe that he's with me and I'm with him right now. A grin slowly spreads across my lips, and when he sees it, that's when he knows the answer, that this isn't a mere dream but a reality called life. "Oh God, I can't believe I'm holding you right now. I can't even believe that I slept with you. Oh shit, not in a sexual way but we just, like, slept, like the normal sleeping procedure. Right?" He babbles, looking horrified at his bubbling and I burst out laughing, rolling off the bed. "This is shameful."
Still laughing, I shut my eyes and recover myself, breathing in and out as Cloud gives me a shy smile, still embarrassed at his babbling few seconds ago. I give him a thumbs up, and he rolls off the bed to stand up. He stretches his body and long arms, lifts it up and his shirt goes upward, revealing his strong and firm abs, showing it to me. My eyes flick fast forward from his abs to his face, and a gulp comes next. He has seen me watching him stretch, and now, he's looking at me, head tilted to the side as he studies me. Sort of. Then he breaks into an evil grin. I roll my eyes. Well, he's sexy. We all admit that, but... nevermind. I can't reason it out. I can't defend myself. Cloud walks up to me and wraps his arms around me the way he would do to his own family. I feel comfartable and secured when his arms are around me. This is probably the first time I ever feel secured and loved. I mean, I know my Mom and Dave love me so much, but it's different when Cloud does it. Deciding that I'm fully recovered and okay, Cloud says that he could prepare a meal for us since probably, the Packs have already eaten. I nod at him, agreeing. I haven't eaten since forever, and I'm really hungry. When I hear Cloud talking about eating, that's when I realize that my stomach is empty and groaning, begging to be filled with delicious foods.
Cloud leads me downstairs, holding my hand as we go down. When we reach the huge living room, people stop talking only to look at us, to our clasped hands, and for a moment, I think about letting go of Cloud's hand, but he just grips it tightly. I see the look of stunned faces, the people who can't believe that I'm letting Cloud hold my hand. Probably, all of the people here know what happened to Cloud and I back in the past, and seeing us holding hands, this is very confusing to them. I think? Cloud looks at them with raised brows, and soon, people go back to their own businesses and ignore us. Cloud tugs me closer by pulling me into him. He slings his arm over my shoulder and together, we head into the kitchen, where other people are cleaning up. As soon as they see Cloud, they immediately bow and Cloud raises his hand, snaps his finger, and that's all it takes for them to scurry out of the kitchen. He lets me sit on one of the stools and tell me to wait as he will be preparing something for us. I wait, anticipating what he would cook for us. I have never seen Cloud cook for someone, or for himself. Back in the past, I saw how he got served meals for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and never once I have seen him working in the kitchen, and now, I saw the chance. I'm seeing him work in the kitchen right now, and that makes me break into a huge smile. I probably look like a crazy cat here, with a dreamy look plastered on my face, and some might say it's insane, but it's not. I'm not. Even this is the first that I saw him working, it makes me say to myself that everyone deserves a second chance. He deserves a second chance. Cloud deserves a second chance. And I hope this would not fuck me up soon, or in the future, or I hope I would not regret this decision I made for myself. I'm believing that everything would be fine sooner or later, and I'll hold onto that. I just hope no one would dare to ruin it.
Cloud is now gathering a cooking pan and oil to the cabinets, and going all around the kitchen to prepare. It makes me curious as to what he's going to make for us. I bet it would be tasty, or not. Crossfingers. This is the first time that Cloud is going to cook, as far as I know. He might or might not have a skill when it comes to cooking, but I hope it's good, because I would hate to disappoint my tummy. While Cloud is cooking, my thought drifts to Mom and Dave. They're probably worried right now, especially Dave. Dave loves to analyze things, and if Troy really did contact them, Dave must have sensed something was wrong and off. I know he's trustng Troy, but Dave loves to make sure that Mom and I are always safe. Since my mind has mentioned Troy, it bugs me that he's never contacted me. I have never received a text or anything, and speaking of my phone, where the hell is it?
Troy has done a lot of things for me, when I was still at the sadness side. He made me happy when I was at my worst. I've mentioned this before, if there was a chance I could love again, I would choose Troy, because he's the perfect guy for me. But I can't. I hope Troy would understand me, and would understand the situation. I can't possible teach my heart to do something.
Then something clicks in my head.
Troy was there when the wolves were lunging themselves at me, and I also rememver Troy being the first target of the Rogues. I saw him look at Cloud transforming into a wolf, and I never saw him react to him, even when I woke up last time. It's like he already knows. He already knows and yet, he doesn't have a reaction to it. It's like he has been dealing with wolves ever since, or for the other matter, Rogues. I look at Cloud, who is busy working with cooking. I have yet to ask him what happened next after I fainted. Does Cloud know Troy already? Even before I met him? That's strange if he did.
