Jarek A growl forms in my chest as my wolf comes forward while I feel myself being lost in the feeling of Gianna's soft lips against mine. Gianna stills in my arms when the deep rumble resonates from me as my wolf is on the surface. "Don't be afraid." Pressing my forehead against hers, I whisper, "We can never harm you." Rubbing my hand on her back, I try to calm her while controlling my wolf. "It's him, right?" She places her hand over my chest, which is vibrating with a low growl, "Your wolf." She looks at me with curious eyes. There is a hint of fear hidden behind her curiosity, which she is trying to hide from me. "Is he unhappy?" She frowns as she stares at my chest as if she can see my wolf beneath my skin. "You are driving him insane, beautiful." Running my knuckles across her cheek, I smile as I honestly tell her what she is doing to my wolf. My wolf wanted to claim her as her mate as soon as he saw her. And now, when

Jarek My hand finds hers as I lead her out of the cafe. I can't get enough of the feel of her hand in mine. Her hand perfectly fits into mine, like it was meant to be held by me. Turning around, I look at her waving at Mag with a smile as we walk towards my bike. Picking the helmet, I secure it around her head as she playfully narrows her eyes at me, pretending to be annoyed. Before I can stop myself, I lift her chin with my finger and peck her lips a few times until her lips stretch into a smile. I smile, looking into her eyes, while my heart feels at peace with her being with me.  It is terrifying how I have begun to rely on her. She is the one I need to survive. The thought of not having her in my life shakes me to the core. I don't know what I will do if she ever leaves me. Maybe, I will destroy myself. My arms go around her, and I am glad, without any resistance, she walks into my arms and lets me hold her.

JarekGently, I run my fingers across Gianna's cheek to wake her up. Some time ago, she fell asleep while leaning against me. At first, I thought she was just pretending to be asleep, but then her deep calm breaths made it evident that she was indeed sleeping."Gianna, wake up." I softly whisper, feeling bad for ruining her sleep. "It is getting late, and we can't stay here for long because it is not safe."I have many enemies, and with Gianna with me, I have to be very careful. I can't make the mistake of taking her safety lightly. I have spent many nights here in this place without informing anyone because I am not afraid of being attacked. But I can't put Gianna's life at risk. So, even though I am not ready to end this date night yet, we have to return to the club.Removing my cut, I drape my cut across Gianna's shoulders when she lightly shivers. A soft smile appears on her face as she slowly blinks her eyes to open them

Jarek My eyes roam around the lounge when I don't feel Gianna's presence. A frown appears on my face because she is not there.  I saw her talking with Diana and helping her with the breakfast buffet. But now, I don't sense her here. Expanding my senses, I try to feel her presence, but my wolf becomes restless when we realize she is not on the clubhouse's ground. Where did she go? Suddenly, I lose my interest in whatever Stella is talking to me about, as all my focus shifts to Gianna.  "Hey, Jay, are you listening to me?" Stella places her hand on my clenched fist, only for me to pull back my hand. My wolf becomes agitated, and so do I.  "What's wrong? Are you okay?" She softly asks, sounding worried and scared.  Of course, she would have sensed the change in my mood and knew that my wolf was triggered. My eyes move to the scar on her face, and guilt swarms my heart. 

Jarek Something in her expression changed, and her eyes lost their usual shine within a second. There must be something that is bothering her, and her troubled expression is unsettling me. I needed her to believe that whatever Stella and I had was past. Even then, it is not close to what I feel for her. I love her. From the moment she walked into my world, I knew she was the one for me.  I haven't felt like this for anyone. Neither will there be anyone who can take Gianna's place in my place. After witnessing the horrors of life, I was not someone who believed in salvation, but now everything has changed. I found my salvation; she is my salvation. I never thought I would ever find the kind of love which my parents had, but honestly, I have been blessed with even more than them.  I found my love in my true mate—the kind of love which is so consuming and yet liberating.  Unknowingly, her hand reaches out f
