Why My Mate Cries
Chapter 97

REID’S POV

When I made the decision to stop taking her repeatedly, it was already late and deep in the evening. I was so ravenous for her that I almost lost control of my desire.

My arms were tightly encircling her waist as I leaned back against the headboard with her wedged between my thighs.

Aliyah played with my fingers and became completely engrossed with it while I was gazing at her, fully enjoying that she was finally in my arms, not mad, but tired of how many times I pleasured her.

“What are you thinking so deeply?” I asked her.

She tilted her head and looked at me for a bit and smiled. “Well, I’m wondering if it’s possible to have a vacation with you. Uh, but never mind, I know you have a lot of obligations to fulfill and—” I cut her off and buried my face in the side of her neck. She smelled like me.

I closed my eyes tightly and inhaled sharply.

“We can do that.”

Since I brought her back, I had already been considering taking her someplace. However, as everything flipped upside down, I realized we were not prepared to take such a step.

As promised, I brought her on a vacation. I would have preferred to stay with her for the entire week even though our vacation was only intended to last two days. If only I could leave the pack that long, I would definitely grasp the time alone with Aliyah.

We checked into a five-star hotel with a sophisticated décor on the East Coast’s beach. I paid for the penthouse on the building’s top floor.

I gave Aliyah a back embrace while admiring the huge sky above and the azure sea, which was mirroring the color of the sky. We were standing in front of a huge one-way mirror, where we could see the stunning coastline.

“Let’s swim?” she said and turned around to fully face me. My eyes went from her eyes to her shoulder which was showing because of her unkempt robe.

“Yeah,” I mumbled in a raspy voice.

Aliyah raised her eyebrow when she realized what was going on inside my head. She knew me fully to realize how easily I was craving for her. Just a single show of skin and I was already in her bidding.

“Let’s head inside before you tire me here continuously, Reid.”

While firmly squinting, I nodded. Even the way she spoke was seductive. She instantly demonstrated how well she knew the inner workings of my body.

She left the penthouse and headed down to the beach before I had a chance to attack her with hunger.

I cussed out loud because of it and came after her.

The beach was breathtaking, and I was pleased that I was able to hold myself together earlier. Seeing her smile and happiness was enough for me to enjoy our stay here.

Wearing nothing but her bikini, I was on guard. I eyed every man like a hawk and made sure that just from my stare they would back off.

“Seriously, how possessive,” she whispered and caressed my clenching jaw.

“Can’t help it.”

Instead, Aliyah tugged me toward the sea while rolling her eyes.

I hugged her and made sure she remained right next to me the entire time as the ocean’s waves engulfed us.

“Ocean water won’t harm me, Reid.”

I was looking at her lips too much to pay attention to what she was saying. Knowing how it would taste, I suddenly felt the need to k**s her since it was crimson and luscious.

She attacked me with her scorching lips and her arms encircled my neck when I thought she would stop me from doing so. Her legs clutching my waist under the water caused me to violently g***n.

Sucking her lower l*p, I pushed her mouth open by holding her jaw and when my tongue was inside her mouth. I let it roam freely. We m**n in between our k****s as we curled our tongues together.

After swimming and enjoying the water with a slight touch of making out, we went to the restaurant and ordered food to her liking.

“This is good,” she mumbled while munching the Almus White Caviar and Native Oysters.

A smirk plastered on my lips while staring at her as she enjoyed the food. Her adorable expression every time she found the food delicious was very entertaining that I could not stop watching her.

“Try this one, Reid,” Aliyah suggested and pointed to the Spring White Truffle.

Everything worked out perfectly, and I was happy that we could finally take our vacation. We swam, we ate delicious food, and I made sure she was having a nice time everywhere we went.

We were on the shore, looking out at the waves, our hands entwined as we walked side by side. The moon above had unlimited control over the wave of the waters.

Magnificent, that, I could say.

“I’m glad we came here,” she mumbled and looked at me with her lips arching a bit.

With a ghost of a smile on my face, I gripped her hand tighter. As if I was trying to convey my message through that.

Aliyah chuckled and looked from a distance. Her eyes were shining unlike days ago when she was so pessimistic and miserable because of losing our baby.

Groaning a bit when I felt my pain surfacing, I moved my jaw aggressively and tried to suppress everything deep inside.

“You fine?” she asked, eyeing me with concern.

I was about to open my mouth when we heard a commotion from the hotel and I could see people running away. There were even wolves trying to get away while some went directly inside the hotel.

When our eyes met, I knew we were thinking the same thing. We ran towards the center of chaos and there we saw werewolves whose fangs were showing, eyes were glowing, and saliva was flowing. It was rogues causing a ruckus around the place.

“Damn it! Of all times!” I howled frustratingly after realizing the graveness of the situation.
