Chapter 13 – The Kiss
Delilah sat on her bed still shocked. She couldn’t believe he bit her. She got up and walked towards the full length mirror and stared at herself. She touched the mark he had left in her neck and looked closely at it. This mark was never going to leave her skin. It is going to be there forever.
She slowly walked away and changed went into the closet and changed into sweats and a huge t-shirt that she found on the shelf. She didn’t care whose it was, she was just going to wear it.
She was so tired, she didn’t know why she was feeling this way, but the only thing she knew was she will have to speak to Zach about this ceremony and ask him to let her leave. She couldn’t stay here anymore, he forced her into marriage.
She just shook her head and went to the bed. She pulled off the covers and crawled into the bed and then she pulled the cover over her and snuggled in.

Zach after clearing up all the work he had to do and setting more protection for Delilah he walked up to his room. He hadn’t heard a word from her since the ceremony was over. He knew what she was thinking. She will try to leave now but he couldn’t let her she was his mate now.
He entered the room quietly and found her fast asleep on the bed. She looked like a small child in her sleep. So beautiful. He shook his head to clear his straying thoughts and walked in and stood in the center of the room.
She had kicked off the covers in the middle of the night. She slept in sweat pants and a t-shirt that dwarfed her tiny frame. His t-shirt. He never thought an oversize t-shirt would look so good in on a little thing like her.
But he felt immense satisfaction in seeing her wear his t-shirt. A sense of possessiveness reared its head and he tried to tamp it down but he couldn’t so he let it flow n him. This gave him an immense sense of relief.
He moved towards the bath when Delilah started trashing about on the bed. He quickly moved towards her and checked whether she was awake. She was dreaming.
She let out an agonized moan in her sleep.
“Let me go. Don’t hurt him, I’ll do what you want. Noooooo.” She was screaming and trashing about.
Zach couldn’t see her in such distress anymore he moved towards her and took her in his arms gently.
“It’s okay Lilah. Come back to me, it’s just a dream love. Come back to me.” And he rocked her back and forth. Slowly her screams subsided and she calmed down.
Delilah woke up just as her dream got over and realized she was held in strong arms. She slowly opened her eyes and looked up at Zach.
“What you were you dreaming about?” Zach asked gently.
“I don’t remember.” Delilah said trying to figure out what she had dreamed about but it was in vain.
“Okay.” Zach said and continued to hold her. He didn’t realize what he was doing. He was so comfortable sitting with her in his arms he forgot about everything.
Delilah turned in his arms and said “let me go now. I’m fine.” And he immediately opened his arms and she fell on the bed backward.
Zach immediately bent toward her to apologize and make her upright, she tried to get up at the same time.
Just as he opened his mouth to say sorry he saw the proximity of their bodies. She blinked her hazel eyes up at him. They were beautiful. They looked like a beautiful sunset. Light golden.
He blinked into them. He slowly put his arms around her and dragged her closer to him. Not taking his eyes from hers. He leaned in closer and inhaled her scent. His wolf was in a frenzy. His wolf wanted to mate with Delilah immediately. But he knew that was a mistake. She needed time. But controlling himself was so much harder than it seemed.
He argued with himself. A small kiss is not going to harm anyone. It will tamp down his desires. What can a kiss do? He was just a breath away from her lips now. He couldn’t wait anymore. He gently touched his lips to her. She gasped and her mouth opened it. He didn’t need another invitation he took advantage. She tasted like sunshine, Warm and sweet.
He didn’t think he would go out of control till Delilah hesitantly kissed him back. Just as she went soft and pliant in his arms he dragged her closer and tightened his arms around her. She put her arms around his neck and kissed him harder. He tangled his hand in her hair and continued kissing her like he was dying for breath. He laid her out on the bed and continued kissing her. She wrapped her legs and arms around him tight. He moved his lips from her mouth to the neck. She arched her neck backward.
“Zach!” she said. And that’s when both of them came to their senses.
Zach jumped away from her like he was electrocuted and Delilah moved back and looked at him with wide innocent eyes.
Zach stood up and ran his had though his hair and rubbed it down his face. He couldn’t believe he lost so much control. He glanced up at Delilah. She looked perfectly enticing. She looked bedraggled and her lips swollen. She looked sexy. He shook his head, if he stayed here another minute he didn’t know what he would do.
He turned and walked out without saying a word.
Delilah watched him walk out and sat there still stunned. That was her first kiss. She gently touched her hand to her lips and blushed as she thought about what had just happened. She couldn’t let this deter her. She had to leave, she said this firmly to herself. But this time she didn’t think she could trust herself.
