I Need A Hero (BOYXBOY/MPREG)

Chapter 10

(This chapter will be short. It's just a filler and due to it being written on my phone I can't tell how long it is.)

Kaiden's POV:

It's been 3 hours since we came back home from the mall, and I've barely slept. I can't get over the nightmares I keep having. My dad standing over me, the smell of whiskey, the beatings all that blood. God why did you allow it to happen? Do I even matter to you? I'm currently in Sterlins room lying on his king size bed in the dark. The curtains pushed off to the side, allowing the bright sliver moon outside the bay window to bathe the room in a glowing light.

I looked to my side to see a shirtless Sterlin buried deep in the white duvet, soft snores leaving his parted lips. His hair was a mess and you could see a small trail of drool at the corner of his mouth, but to me he never looked better. With the bed being against the wall in the middle of the room I could see the entire layout of the bedroom from here. On the far left was a small sitting area with a large leather couch and matching loveseat, sitting in front of a glass top coffee table. An entertainment stand complete with a 35 inch large screen tv and a PlayStation 4 with two rows of book shelves filled with movies and games. A connected bathroom just behind that area, and a  walk-in closet just beside the bathroom. On the far right side was a large bay window with a bookshelf on each side. The walls and ceiling were painted black with glow in the dark stars placed in random spots.

There wasn't much to the room, but I'd have to say it was one of my favorite places in the entire house. Not being able to sleep I decided to settle on finding a book to read. Kicking the comforter from around my legs I swung my legs to the side, my bare feet landing on the hardwood floor. Making my way to the bookshelfs I skimmed through the books until I found one I had been looking for; 'Heart Of a Witch' by Judith Hawkes. (AN: It's one of my favorites check it out sometime.) A smile tugged at my lips. Nothing like a good horror based book in the middle of the night. I sat at the window for a bit of natural reading light. The window overlooking the backyard and the woods.

A couple chapters into my book I was interrupted by a rustling sound coming from the middle of the room. "Baby, is that you? What are you doing up so late?" asked Sterlin sleep evident in his voice. His tan skin was washed in the moon light giving a soft glow to his tattooed arms and chest. If I didn't know any better just looking at him a would have swarn this was just a dream.

"Sorry if I woke you. I couldn't sleep so I thought I'd do a bit of reading." I said.

"Well why don't you put your book away and come cuddle me?" Making grabby hands at me. For an Alpha werewolf he sure was a softy at times. I sighed rolling my eyes playfully putting my book down, standing back up and making my way back to the bed. I pushed back the duvet climbing in beside my boyfriend.

"Hello, gorgeous don't you look lovely tonight?" I couldn't help but laugh at his question. Gorgeous. Ha when hell freezes over! I squeaked when I felt his ice cold arms wrap around my waist pulling me to his chest.

"You're f-freezing!" I stuttered out.

"Well, how about I warm us up?" He said sending kisses up my neck and behind my ear. His touch sent shivers throughout my entire body, sparks flew as he rubbed his hands down my sides. I'm not ready for this. Pulling my body from his I turned my body so that we were face to face. I give him a weak smile, "I'm sorry but I'm not ready for that. Not just yet.." I sigh kissing him on the nose.

"No problem, love. I didn't mean to make you feel pressured. We can wait until you're ready." He said wholeheartedly his grey eyes shining with the truth of his words. I couldn't have picked a better man to spend the rest of my life with. The moon goddess knows what she's doing when selecting our mates.

"What are you thinking about?" He asked.

"Nothing just how lucky I am to have you." I smiled "I honestly don't know what I'd do without you." I smiled feeling good, telling Sterlin the truth.

"Mhm now do you want to tell me why you can't sleep?" He asked with a raised brow. There's nothing getting pasted him. "Come on, baby. You know you can tell me right? I'm here for you no matter what..."

"Nightmares..."

"What was about? It might feel better if you get it off your chest," he said. Sweeping my bangs from in front of my eyes. "So beautiful..." Ha who's he kidding?! I couldn't help but laugh at his statement. His face changed into one of concern. "What? What's so funny?" He asked.

"You are. Calling me 'beautiful' you sound ridiculous, love. And there's not much to say about my nightmare, it was about my dad again. And the b-beatings." I almost whispered the last part. I felt his body tense up as he pulled me into his chest. I breathed deep taking in his sweet scent of cherry vanilla body wash.

"I'm sorry, baby. I won't let him place another hand on you again," he said placing a kiss on the top of my head. "Now come on love lets get some sleep. We've got school in the morning, and afterwards we've got to head to the mall to pick up party supplies for your birthday party this weekend. And before you say anything Pops won't allow you not to have a party for your birthday," kissing my lips one last time he pulled me closer to his chest before I had a chance to respond. Guess I didn't have a choice in the matter.
