Being Mute

Chapter 33 ❤️

Well I was forced to stay inside while Miles went out to check to see who was attacking his pack. It sounded odd and I somewhat didn't feel as threatened by it. I knew Miles pack was huge, and that a pack being on his territory meant that it was probably like 30 miles away from here or so. Miles territory was huge so I knew he probably had everything under control.

I wasn't even worried about it what so ever, in fact I was hardly thinking about it. I had kissed Miles! Miles had kissed me! The thought made my stomach bubble. I was so overwhelmed yet so happy?

I mean I don't know why Miles kissed me. It was very unexpected. I went to his office to tell him I planned to leave and in return I came out with no plan to leave whatsoever! I didn't even get to telling him! He kissed me! Also his beta interrupted before I can say anything.

I wondered what Miles response would have been when I told him. I wondered if he still would've kissed me if he beta had not interrupted my rant.

I was sitting on my bed, thinking, fiddling with my phone. I was so deep in thought I hadn't realized my window had opened and someone had climbed through it with ease.

I didn't realize it until the person said my name. "Jane?" His voice was so recognizable! So familiar that I found myself sprinting up, alarmed by his presence. "Dylan?!" I spat, dumbfounded. "What are you doing here? How'd you get in?" I asked. He shrugged. "The window was unlocked." He murmurs. It actually was broken. After all the times the window had been screwed shut and me also unscrewing it by forcing it open, the window gave up and stopped locking.

Although it really doesn't matter that the lock is broken. All my enemies, not that I have any, but all of them are probably werewolves that are clearly able to pry open a locked window.

"Yeah I know! But you're here! How'd you get past Miles pack?!" I hiss at him. He suddenly had a slightly guilty face on. "I sent a few of my pack members to distract him so I can get through." He murmurs.

I narrowed my eyes, confused. Miles beta had said there was a whole pack in the territory. Perhaps he was so overwhelmed he just assumed it was a whole pack.

"Okay? So what are you even doing here?" I ask. He sighs. "Jane, I made a mistake." He says, stepping closer to me. I found myself backing up which was kind of weird. I mean I know Dylan. I was in love with Dylan! So why did I feel so afraid of him?!?

"What do you mean?" I ask in a low whisper. It was obvious he had noticed me backing away from him. He looked annoyed by it. At this point it should be obvious to me that Dylan had no intention of killing me.

"I mean with everything I told you. When I said what we had was fake. It wasn't Jane, it was never fake." He says. My eyes seemed to widen and I seemed to freeze in spot.

My mind couldn't wrap around what he had just said. I tried replaying his words in my head but I still couldn't quite understand them.

He was saying that he lied. Lied about us being fake? Like our relationship? Our actual relationship? Meaning- meaning that it was real!

Shit.

I shook my head trying my hardest to try and deny it but I couldn't. Our relationship always somewhat felt real to me and maybe that's why I denied that it was fake for so long.

It was utterly real. The time we shared together, our first kiss, our laughs, our long chats that usually were pointless, and most importantly, my love for him.

It all was confusing. "You don't have to say anything in return, Jane. I just needed to say this to you and the only way to tell you was to come here. But obviously it would've been hard getting past Miles so-" he shrugged.

"Look- if you feel the same way I do, if you still want to be with me and don't completely hate me, I'm here. You can come and live with me and I'll take you away from the hell hole." He says.

I was able to hear his words although I still couldn't completely process them. I was still unsure about everything. I had so much on my mind I wasn't sure how to respond.

I watched as Dylan walked closer to me, this time I didn't step back or anything. He leaned in and kissed my forehead. "Please think about all of this, Jane. And- I love you." He whispers and with that he jumped back out the window.

I myself just had to take a seat on my bed. Which I did.

I laid back, closing my eyes. I stopped trying to process what had just happened. I stopped trying to think about the kiss that I had just had with Miles. I ended up just falling asleep, feeling completely overwhelmed.
