Chapter 20

Chase's P.O.V

She's gonna be the end of me. I loved it when she bit onto my ear lobe and tugged gently on it. I want her to do that again. Really badly. But she won't, this I know, she won't do it again until she's convinced, and I'll gladly wait for her if needed, but hopefully not to long. I'm actually glad she said that I'm convincing her now. It's actually what I needed to hear from her. Anyway as we walk into the dinning room, Mason and Sophia froze at the sight of Aria, and within a second, they bolted to Aria and pulled her into a bone crushing hug. "C-Can't b-breathe!" She managed to say. They quickly let go of her and mumbled "Sorry." "That's...thrice in...one day!" Aria said through pants. "Thrice?" I asked her, confused. "Yeah, one by Aunt Helena and Uncle Simon, one by Andrew and now, one by Mason and Sophia." She answered me.

"Where have you been?" Mason asked. "For the past few minutes or past day?" Aria asked in return. "Minutes. We know about what happened yesterday. The others told us." Sophia said. "I went to see Chase, okay." She said as she walked off into the kitchen and I followed her. "You okay?" I ask. "Yeah. It's just that, Helena, Simon, Jason and maybe Nicholas will think badly about me seeing you. To be honest, I don't care what others think. I only care about the people I care about think, and if they gonna give me a hard time about it then...." She didn't finish her threat, but it knew what she meant. "D-Do you c-care for m-me?" I stuttered scared for the answer. I didn't want to look her in the eyes. To afraid that she might have disgust and anger in them. "Oh Chase. Of course I care for you. Why wouldn't I?" I got in response. I look at her then. She had confusion and concern in her eyes, not disgust or anger. "A-After w-what I-I d-id-did t-to y-you. I-I w-wouldn't b-be s-sub-surprised." I stuttered at her, dropping my eyes to the floor again.

I heard her sigh and take a few step towards me. I felt her fingers cup my face and tilted upwards. I didn't try to fight her, not again. I just let her do what she wanted. As she made me meet her eyes, she said, "Yes Chase, you did hurt us, and not just mentally." I whimpered at what she said. "But Sapphire and I still, STILL Chase, still want our mate. Our real one." She added and I froze. Stood frozen on the spot, except I kept looking from her eyes to her lips. I'm trying not to kiss her, but IT'S FREAK'IN hard not to. 'Don't Chase, don't. We could loose her again if you do!' Levi said frantically as I started to lean toward her. I listened to him and stood still. I really wanted to kiss her, but I know I can't yet.

I saw her lean toward me though. "It's nice to know that you won't force yourself on me." She said huskily. Oh god, I love her voice, but then I realised what she said. "I-I w-wouldn't d-do t-that!" I stuttered just as huskily. Realising just how close she was to me. "I know." she said a she put her hands on my chest, up my neck and one hand into my hair. I brought my head down for her a little, since I was 4 inches taller than her. My heart was beating with anticipation, getting faster with each second that passes. Aria brought her lips to mine. I didn't respond at first. I was too shocked to do anything, but I soon brought my hands into her hair and kissed her back. Aria kept leaning forward, forcing me to walk back to the nearest wall there was.

As soon as my back hit a wall, I licked her bottom lip asking, no pleading, for entrance. Which she didn't grant, instead she tugged on my hair, that her right hand was wrapped in. My mouth opened a little to moan, but she plunged her tongue into my mouth, making me moan deeper in her mouth. I didn't fight for dominance, just gave it straight to her. Aria put her legs around my waist and I which places, so her back was against the wall. She searched my mouth for some moments, running her tongue over my teeth and tongue, messaging my tongue before leaving my mouth, she bit my bottom lip and pulled gently as she was leaving. I moaned as she did so.

Before Aria could take a breather, I kissed her this time, plunging my tongue into her mouth. I wanted to make her feel the pleasure she gave me. As I massaged her tongue with mine, I gripped her hair tighter and tighter, making her moan. Oh god. How I would love to make moan all night, but I would be taking a very risky move. A move I don't want to make yet. So I pull back and put my forehead to hers. We were both breathing heavily. After a few minutes, we both calmed down enough to talk, "I wouldn't be able to stop myself if we kept going." I said huskily and shakily. Aria didn't say anything, just nodded and unwrapped her legs from my waist. She blushed at the position we were in and tried to hide it. "Don't hide from me love!" I said to her. She looked up at me, probably seeing the love I have for her. "C'on lover boy, the others are properly are wondering where we are!" She said, then she went to get us something to eat and went back out. I had stay behind and calm myself down before going back out again. I'm still turned on from before. While I calmed down, I prayed to the Moon Goddess that convincing Aria won't take too long.
