Alpha's Mute Mate novel Chapter 49

She was avoiding my eyes.

I took a deep breath and sighed.

I can't even kiss her anymore with these eyes they scare her.

"Lily are you afraid of my eyes?"

I asked not even turning around.

After waiting ten seconds I turn around and stare at her.

"Well are you?"

She hides her face with her hands.

She removed them and bluntly said"yes I'm sorry, but I am Adrian they remind me of things I don't want to think about."

Oh.

Red eyes remind her of what?

"What do they remind you of?"

I ask looking intensity at her.

"Nothing it's just nightmares."Lily whispered.

Nightmares?

"Adrian are your eyes always gonna be like that?" She whispered trying to change the subject.

They wouldn't stay but she would have to accept me as her mate.

"No Lily they won't stay like this forever if you want them gone you have to accept me."

Lily POV

I stared at him Mrs.Black mention the ritual before.

She was saying how if I didn't fully believed in Adrian as a mate the Moon goddess will not accept us as a pair.

"And if I don't accept you and do the ritual?" I whispered.

"Well then my eyes will stay red and as time pass I'll go more insane and eventually try to kill you and myself." He calmly states.

Why is he so calm saying that its starting to freak me out.

I stared at him with wide eyes.

He would kill me?

I slowly step toward him wanting to hug him.

Seeing me move he sighed and engulfed me in his arms.

I wrapped my arms around him and just stayed breathing his scent.

We stayed like that for what seems hours till he pull away. "You need a shower." He says covering his nose.

I looked at him shocked he did not just say that.

"Haha I'm kidding Lily, but no seriously we both really do need one."

I looked at him narrowing my eyes.

"Fine I'll take one first."

"Nope ha no we are taking one together." He says with a smirk.

"No we are not." I told him as I walked toward the bathroom.

As I was about to close the door Adrian put his foot to keep it open.

He then pushed the door hard making me fall.

"I said we are going to take one together." He says with a smirk as he comes inside locking the door.

I know this is all fault.

I sat down feeling the cold water not bothering to make it warmer.

The red eyes scare me the most.

I don't think that's Adrian.

It has to be something else Adrian isn't like this.

I get up and start shampooing my entire body making sure not to miss a spot.

I kept on imagining those eyes.

I am missing Adrian and I know for sure that's not entirely Adrian.

After an hour of just staying there in the shower thinking.

I decided that the last thing I could do is hurt Adrian even more.

I got up and slide open the shower glass door.

Feeling the coldness made me shiver right away.

I got a towel from the towel holder and wrapped it around my body.

Once the towel was all secured I opened the door and went to find my clothes.

I had absolutely no idea where all my clothes where.

Adrian wasn't in the room either so I couldn't ask him.

I sighed and went to the closet first.

In the room there were one very large closet and two big wardrobe one with a mirror and the other without.

When I open the closet all I saw were suits and shoes at the bottom so this was Adrian's.
