A rogue's cry

Chapter 16

Chapter 16

I woke up the next morning still in Damian's lap. He was still fully dressed. The fire had burned out and the sun wasn't even up yet. I think I probably woke up around 11 last night. Maybe 12. I looked up at the clock, it read 3 am. I just can't seem to sleep. I stirred in Damian's arms, waking him up.

"Laila?" He asked

"Yes?" I asked back. He opened his eyes and looked around. He seemed to remember all that happened and his arms tightened around me. "Let's go upstairs" I whispered. I tried to get up but his iron grip made it impossible. He stood up with me still in his arms. He kicked his boots off and he carried me up the stairs quietly. "Are you tired?" I asked him. He didn't respond but I could tell by his face that he hasn't gotten much sleep in the past 3 days.

We reached our room and he kicked the door closed behind him. He carefully laid me down on the bed. He started to walk away when I grabbed his hand. I stood up and looked up at him. He didn't look at me. His gaze was on the wall behind me.

"Why won't you talk to me?" I asked in a whispered voice.

"I told you not to go without Daniel anywhere and you disobeyed my orders" He said still not looking at me. I grabbed his face with my hands and moved his head to look at me. I stood on my tip toes and kissed him. He stood there for a minute without responding but soon his hands slid around my waist and pulled my closer to him. I pulled away and laid my head on his chest.

"I'm sorry. I really didn't think anything would happen by just going to the mall" I whispered. His hand made circles on my back. He picked me up and sat me on the bed. He got on his knees inbetween my legs. He put his hands on my waist and looked at me. We were the sat height now.

"I know. And I'm sorry for leaving. I should have never left when I knew we were having rogue problems"

"Wait, we are having rogue problems?" I asked. He nodded his head. He must have caught the worried look in my eye.

"Don't worry. I won't let them get within a miles of you again" He kissed my forehead and stood up. He started to walk into the closet, getting ready for bed. I myself slipped off my clothes and slid under the covers. He came out with shorts on and no shirt. I smiled at him when he slipped into the bed next to me. My stomach growled loud and I giggled.

"Do you want me to get you something to eat first?" He asked wrapping his arms around me and bringing my back against his chest.

"No, I'll wait until we get up"

"Are you sure-"

"Yes Damian. Now go to bed" I cut him off but he didn't seem to mind. He kissed the crown of my head and tightened his grip around me.

"Goodnight angel" He whispered. I didn't reply because I was already sleeping in his arms.

I woke up that morning at 8. Damian was not in the bed. I sighed and got up and went into the bathroom. As I pasted the mirror I gasped at how bad I looked. I had bags under my eyes, my hair was a complete mess, I had a bandage wrapped around my head.

"How can he still love me?" I whispered to myself.

"Well, because baby your the most beautiful girl I have ever seen in my life" Damian said standing in the doorway. He was already dressed and showered. I rolled my eyes at his comment. He walked into the bathroom and wrapped his arms around my waist. I leaned against him. For the first time, I noticed the tattoo on his upper arm. I turned around and lifted up his sleeve.

"When did you get this?" I asked

"When I became Alpha. It's a pack tradtion to get the tattoo when you become alpha" He said staring down at me with complete love. I smiled and touched his dicep. My light touch sent shivers down his body. I smiled and looked up at him. (The tattoo pic on the side but the tattoo is on his arm) I ran my hands up his biceps.

"Since when do you work out?" I winked at him and walked out of the bathroom, leaving him in the dark. I heard his footsteps come after me. I picked me up by my waist and spun me around. I squealed. He set me down and kissed my neck. I pulled away from him and turned to look at him. My stomach growled and seemed to echo threw the room.

"Let's get breakfast" He said grabbing my hand.

"Actually" I started pulling my hand free from his. "Can you start breakfast while I take a shower?" I asked pouting my lip and little. He walked over me to and ran his thumb over my pouted lip. His lips gental kissed mine. I smiled when he pulled away.

"Anything for you angel" he winked and kissed me agian. I pulled away and started walking into the bathroom.

"No staring" I said reaching the bathroom door. I could still feel his eyes on me.

"That baby, is impossible to do" He said. I laughed and shut the bathroom door.

When I walked out of the bathroom the smell of food hit my nose. My stomach growled and I smiled. I threw my dirty clothes in the hamper and walked downstairs. The pack members bowed their heads as I walked by. I said by hi's to them and continued to walk to the kitchen. A plate of food was sitting on the island with Damian's back to me. I tip toed over to him.

"Don't even think about it" He said not even turning around. I giggled and stood on my tip toes and wrapped my arms around his neck. He turned around and wrapped his arms around my waist. His wet hands soaked threw my shirt. I gasped and pulled out for him grip. He laughed and leaned against the counter. He had just got done doing dishes.

"Jerk" I mumbled to myself. I knew he could hear me though.

"Awe baby" He started. I sat down at the island and started eating my food. He came over and sat next to me. I didn't look at him while I ate. "Please don't be mad" He said. I shook my head because my food was in my mouth. He sighed. While I ate a piece of toast I rested my legs on his lap. He looked over at me with his eye brow raised.

"What do you think your doing?" He asked

"You don't like my legs on you?" I asked smiling. He growled and I laughed finishing off my breakfast. "Thank you" I said getting up and hugging him. He seemed surprised by my hug but responded with his own.

"Your welcome baby. Are you still hungry?" He pulled away and asked me.

"A little but I'm fine" I said.

"What else do you want?" he asked smiling and taking my hand and leading me to the refrigorator. A cake realy sounded good.

"Do you have any cake?" I asked. He looked down at me with a weird expression on his face. I laughed and smiled. "It sounds good" I said leaning agianst the counter.

"We can make one. Do you want to?" he asked. I smiled and nodded. After he got out all the stuff to make a cake, I started mixing it all. I smiled when I saw the flour sitting on the counter. I knew he had a black shirt on.

"Damian?" I asked. He turned around and I threw the flour all over his black shirt and ran.
