44 Secrets and confessions .

Lyla 

I clutched the orb , the room as Xander expertly played with my outer lips , 

v soft moans fillin spreading the wetness pooling from it like lubrication before moving to my nub .

With one probing finger , he found my rock – hard nub and began to rub his finger up and down , imitating my previous action .

I began to buck my hips up and down , following the movement of his hand .

“ You’re so perfect , Lyla ,” Xander said suddenly , with wistfulness in his voice .

“ Does it feel good ? ” 

My only reply was to throw my head back even further moaning with delight .

His breath was warm against my skin as he worked his tongue expertly , flicking it up and down , probing .

searching … slowly , he inserted one finger , pulling it back and forth to spread the wetness fully .

He pushed in until he was up to his knuckle and could go no further .

He twisted his finger in the slick slit , wiggling it around , making me thrash my head about and moan even louder when he hit a sweet spot .

“ Don’t stop ! ” I cried , “ Please , don’t stop ! ” 

His tongue reached for my nub again , while still pounding his finger in and out of me and I went wild .

His tongue replaced his hands at some point and I could barely hold on .

The orb in my hand pulsed , emitting a faint warmth that somehow intensified my sensations .

I clung to it as .

though it was an anchor as my body trembled with waves of pleasure .

My muscles tightened , my back arched as the orgasm washed over me .

I felt Xander’s grip on my thighs tighten momentarily before he pulled back , watching me with a look of quiet satisfaction as I slowly came down from my high .

He collected the orb from me before scooping me in his hands and taking me to the bed .

My eyes were still tightly shut , relishing in the free falling I just experienced .

When I opened my eyes , I saw he was lying beside me , his gaze fixed on the ceiling .

The air around us was calm , an unspoken understanding of what had just transpired , yet nothing felt awkward .

Instead , a lazy smile crept onto my face as I rolled onto my side to face .

My body .

was still humming with the aftermath but something else had caught my attention .

My eyes trailed downwards towards the lower part of Xander’s body , as I stared at him curiously .

“ Are you … alright ? ” I asked .

Xander who had been lost in thought , turned his head to look at me , confusion flashing across his face for a minute .

“ Yeah , I’m fine .

Why do you ask ? ” 

My gaze dipped down again , more pointedly this time , landing on his crotch .

“ You sure ? I mean … Is there anything I can do for you ? ” 

He stared at me for a moment before a slow smirk tugged at the corner of his mouth as he let out a low chuckle .

“ I’m fine , Lyla ,” he assured me teasingly .

“ You don’t need to worry about me .

I’m more concerned about how you’re feeling ”

He sat up , moving to the side of the bed then swung his legs off the bed and stood up .

stretching .

I watched as he stood up , and then walked back to the mirror where the orb was lying .

He picked it up and moved towards his backpack with it .

I bit my lip before asking .

“ What’s the deal with that orb anyway ?” 

For a moment , he didn’t respond , as if he hadn’t heard me .

He toyed with the orb in his hands , rolling it between his fingers absentmindedly .

I was about to repeat myself when he finally looked up , a small smile playing on his lips .

“ It’s nothing , really , he said with a shrug .

“ Just something used by the healers in my pack use to help people suffering from well , conditions like yours .

It’s supposed to help draw out the excess pheromones .

I eyed the orb suspiciously but eventually shrugged it off, deciding not to press further .

Whatever it was , it had worked .

The intense strain of my heat had faded , leaving me feeling 

more in control than I had ever been .

I shrugged , accepting his explanation .

“ Okay … ” I muttered though I wasn’t entirely convinced .

My gaze drifted back to Xander , my mind now focused on a different question .

A more important 

in my opinion .

one , 

“ So , um … ” I paused chewing my lower lip nervously .

“ What are we now ? Are we dating or something ? ” 

His eyes widened slightly at my question and he turned to me with a surprised , teasing grin , his eyes twinkling with amusement .

“ You would date someone like me ? ” 

A blush crept up my cheeks but I couldn’t back down now .

“ Yeah , l’confessed quietly , my fingers fidgeting with the edge of the blanket .

“ I mean , I like you .

And … you’re really handsome .

I’m not blind – everyone at school is into you .

The girls … ” 

He laughed , his teasing smile growing wider .

“ Oh ? ” Are you using me for some kind of revenge mission against other girls ? ” 

I couldn’t help but laugh .

“ Maybe a little ,” I admitted .

“ But it’s not just that .

I don’t have the best memories of school … From year one until now and now this sophomore year but I have wanted .

to do little things like having a boyfriend .

I’ve never had one before and you’re the only guy that has stuck around until now .

” 

His smile softened .

He crossed the room and squatted in front of me , taking both of my hands in his .

“ Everyone is an idiot , Lyla , because if I had met you earlier , I would have totally dated you and for the life of me , I can’t understand why your mate let you go .

Is he blind ? ” 

A pang of guilt suddenly sneaked into my heart but I pushed it down .

Ramsey was an ex for at reason and was dead to me .

“ Is that a yes ? ” I cocked my head at him.

He nodded slowly .

“ Let’s date .

” 

My heart skipped a beat , my eyes locking with his .

I hadn’t expected him to agree so easily .

“ Do you do you love me ? ” I I whispered “ Or like me that seems fair enough .

I mean we bust met

and … ” 

He leaned forward and placed a kiss on my lips , a smile curving his lips as he pulled back .

པ 

“ Like you ? ” he repeated a playful grin tugging at his lips , as he wriggled his brows in disbelief at my question .

“ I’ve always loved you , Lyla .

Since before you were born … and for centuries now .

” 

I frowned .

“ What are you talking about ? You always say the weirdest things , I muttered giving him a playful shove .

” 

He chuckled , reaching up and gently pinching my nose .

“ You’ll figure it out one day, Lyla ,” he said , rising to his feet .

He straightened his shirt , his expression suddenly turning serious as he glanced at the door of my bedroom .

“ I need to go now .

I have a feeling your mother might show up soon .

” 

rest of his things into his backpack .

I I nodded smiling at him .

I watched as he gathe threw some clothes on before walking him to the door downstairs .

When he stepped out, turned to me and our gaze held .

“ Boyfriend ! ” I murmured , feeling a rush of excitement pool in my chest .

he 

He just smiled and stroked my hair .

He opened his mouth as if to say something but decided against it .

“ Seems you have something to say to me ? ” I probed gently .

He nodded .

“ It’s a question , I’m just worried that I might offend you if I ask ? ” 

“ If I promise not be get offended , will you ask ? ” 

He smiled and then nodded .

“ Lyla , is Mrs Grayson your real mother ? ” his voice was so soft that I almost didn’t catch his words for a moment .

The question caught me off guard .

I stared at him unsure of how to respond .

“ No ! ” I finally admitted .

“ She’s just my Nanny .

My parents are back at Blue Ridge and they want nothing to do with me .

So , Nanny practically raised me ever since I was little .

He cupped my face , his eyes boring into mine .

“ Why don’t you like talking about yourself , Lyla ? I’ve told you stories about my childhood , how I grew up but it feels like I know nothing about 

you .

What kind of person are you ? Did your parents tell you anything at least ? Maybe of your capabilities or something like that / 

I shook my head , my throat tightening .

“ I just … don’t .

It’s complicated , I guess .

See , I do not have the best stories .

My mother never liked me too much as a child , she preferred my sister , Clarissa and it only got worse when I became a deviant .

My life wasn’t as colourful as yours , aside from being this every month … I have no other ability .

He nodded , giving a thoughtful look .

“ Why are you asking ? Is it … is it going to change your mind 

about us ? ” 

“ No ! ” he shook his head , reaching for my left hand .

“ It doesn’t change anything .

I was just 

curious .

“ Good ,” I whispered managing a smile .

“ Then I’m glad .

” 

He nodded , finally letting me go .

“ I’ll see you later ,” he said quietly pressing a kiss on my forehead before turning and leaving .
