Chapter 8

*UNEDITED*

This is Chapter 8 as promised! Just a quick reminder- Ella had gone to her mother’s grave to pray for her to give her wisdom.  This is going to be important in this chapter. Hope you guys enjoy.

“Sir, the protection detail you asked for Miss Caldwell is in position. I trust them completely and you shouldn’t have any trouble with them.”Darius spoke confidently.

“Thank you, Darius.” Parker said feeling relieved.

Ella looked at him with confusion. She had obviously heard the entire conversation-thanks to her wolf hearing. She looked at Parker expectantly after he hung up.

“Ella, I’ve heard from some people that the alpha of the Blood Moon Pack is out to get my mate. I can’t leave you without protection so three of my most esteemed and trusted warriors will be with you at all times. I-I actually have a request.” He stuttered hesitantly.

“What is it, Park?” Ella inquired.

“I need you to keep the story about us being mates under wraps. With everything that’s going on, I don’t want to put you in danger. I can’t have people knowing you’re my mate. That means you’ll have to hide my mark.” Parker explained sadly as he skimmed his finger over his mark, making Ella shudder with pleasure.

The new piece of information left Ella slightly scared and a little hurt. She knew that Parker was only asking that of her to protect her but it still hurt to know that she’d have to hide his mark.

Parker was devastated that Ella would have to hide his mark, something she should have worn with pride and happiness. He hated the Blood Moon Pack for that.

“I understand.” Ella said, her voice wavering slightly.

“I promise you El, that eventually, I’ll end all of this and when I do, I crown you as my Luna. You’ll be so perfect. The pack would be honored to have you as their first lady.” Parker stated, the love clear in his eyes.

“When will I see you again?” Ella asked, afraid of the answer.

“I’ll come see you as soon as I can; Every night if possible.” Parker murmured, pressing a gentle kiss against her forehead.

Ella closed her eyes to his touch and savored the feeling.

Parker rolled off of her and shut off the lights. He took Ella gently in his arms so that her head rested on his chest. The rhythmic rise and fall of his chest and his hands skimming her back made her fall asleep quicker than she expected.

Ella woke up feeling too comfortable. She smiled and yawned, stretching her limbs. She tried to move but realized that something strong and muscular was holding her in place. She looked to her side to see Parker smiling at her, making her blush furiously.

“Good morning. I take that you slept well?” He chuckled.

“Very well.” She murmured shyly and Parker gave her a genuine smile.

He looked irresistible in the morning-wearing nothing but a pair of sweatpants, his sculpted chest was bare for the world to see. His hair was messy and stuck up in various directions, making him look cuter.

Parker examined Ella as she did him. Everything from her ruffled hair, rosy cheeks to her sleepy eyes was perfect. Parker couldn’t help himself and pressed a kiss to her temple.
