VALERIA'S ADVENTURES

Emotionally drained😖☹️😓

JEFFREY

"Where have you been?" she said with the most sexiest sleep voice I've ever heard.

I was hesitant before replying her while she looks on at me suspiciously.

"I went out to drink." I replied back.

She stares at me widely and surprisingly.

"I haven't seen you drink before, Jeff. What's going on with you? You've been completely distraught after what that bitch said in the council's room and apart from that, you promised to explain everything tonight so just spill it out now. Is there something really huge you're hiding from me, Jeff?

I sighed in defeat, mentally applauding her of really good at detecting my moods even Sally couldn't do that when we're together. Sally again! Why am I even thinking about that slut right now?
I need to think of something to tell Ava now, I can't explain  my darkest secret to her, she's not ready for that now and she may see me as a monster. Of course, that's what I am anyway.
I faked a cough, looked up into her eyes and saw a hint of sadness in them. Felt really downcast because I'm the cause of that sadness.

"Ava, I'm sorry for everything that has happened. I shouldn't have made you come here in the first place, we shou...

"That sorry is rather late, we are here now alive and kicking especially I being unacceptable by your world" she hiatus before continuing.
"I've deeply thought about everything that happened recently and it's kinda devastating but I won't let that weigh me down Jeff, be it that bitch or any other person else, I'll fight to be an acceptable mate by your world, I'm not going anywhere else, you're my world and I can't run away from you like a coward. And I'm sorry I yelled at you the other time, I was so annoyed at what happened that I couldn't control my emotions."

"It's fine baby, I would have reacted more than that if I was in your shoes."

She holds out her hand and caresses some hair strands that falls on my face, brushing her hand through it, I felt those pleasurable tingles and it's so overwhelming. Just that simple touch makes me twitch underneath. I blinked severally to suppress my building up emotions but I ended up revealing them. Her eyebrows furrow slightly.

"Jeff, are you okay? You're red as a bloated tomato"
She smiled widely, withdraws her hand then break into a laugh.

Shit! Caught!! I watched her as she laughs and smile along, it melts my heart and she's killing me slowly without even doing much. She should be grateful that I haven't give in to Mercules, my wolf, he would have pounce on her like a prey and mark her straight away.
After some few secs later,

"It's okay, baby. At least, you know I can't hide my overflowing emotions from you any longer, not sure I'll be able to keep Mercules at bay anymore"
she stops laughing and looks at me intently

"Then allow him, I'm ready to get marked"

What!!! My eyes widen at that sudden words, she's not ready and I know it. During the marking, the mates must make sure they are both ready for it. It can't be done forcefully. If done that way, it may weaken the mate bond and also result in the unready mate to despise the other mate which may later result to rejection. When one get rejected by their mate, they die inside, it may lead to depression, indignation and sometimes death. The saving grace is when the mate accept the rejected mate back.
