Chapter 30 - Returning to my rejected mate
Shay's Point of View
I turn my head away, hiding it against Zane's chest. I really hate this movie. It makes me very uneasy. I lift my head a little to glare at Zane again and he smirks, feeling my eyes on him. "It's just a movie Shay."
"I know, a movie that I hate.. Do I have to watch it?"
Zane frowns and looks down at me.
"If it really bothers you that much we can leave and do something else?"
I lift my head to look around us and I see both Amy and AB fast asleep on their mates and I smile, I guess that's one way to avoid this movie.
I look back at Zane.
"You can stay and finish it with them if you want, but I really don't want to watch this anymore. This whole movie makes me feel uneasy.
Zane shakes his head, but before I can say anything he stand up, carrying me bridal style. I squeal a little wrapping my arms around his neck, not expecting him to stand up like that and the two men turn to look at us. I can feel my cheeks heating up.
"We're going to head out, and check on the kids. You can watch something else if you want or continue this movie."
Ryan and Alex both nod at Zane.
"I think we're going to finish this one, the girls are asleep anyway so they won't mind us still watching it. If our kids are awake let me know?"
Alex asks and Zane nods at him.
"I'll let you know if they're awake. Both of you."
He looks at Ryan as well who nods and smiles.
"Thanks. We'll see you later."
Zane nods and we leave the television room.
"You could've stayed and finished the movie with them."
I say looking up at Zane. I feel him shrug.
"It's okay I've seen it before. I'd rather spend some time with you."
"You can put me down now."
Zane pouts and looks down at me.
"But I don't want to yet. I like holding you.
I sigh.
"If you put me down you can still hold me."
Zane sighs as well but lets me down, pulling me flush against him.
I push my hands against his chest and push a little against him so I can look up into his face.
"Fine, I've let you down. Where's my reward?'
I arch my brow.
"Your reward? No one said anything about a reward."
He frowns.
"I want a kiss. Otherwise I'm going to pick you up again and carry you through the whole packhouse, for everyone to see."
I narrow my eyes at him.
"You wouldn't."
"You wanna bet?"
He asks with a smirk and makes to pick me up again. I laugh and push against his chest.
"Okay fine. One kiss?"
He nods at me.
"Yes, just one kiss."
I nod, wrapping my hands around his neck pulling his head down a little before I stand on my toes and place a soft kiss on his lips. When I pull back Zane tangles his hand into my hair, the other arm wrapping tightly around me, pulling me into him before he kisses me. Hard.
I moan as I feel the sparks coursing through me, and I kiss him back the same way.
He squeezes my butt and I gasp a little opening my mouth allowing him access and he slips his tongue into my mouth.
I feel him throbbing against my stomach and I moan again, feeling my own arousal growing.
All to soon he lifts his head and I groan in disappointment, while gasping for air.
Zane smirks down at me.
"As much as I want to continue kissing you, I don't want everyone smelling what should only be for me."
He says with a slight growl to his voice, and I can feel even more liquid pooling between my legs at the way his voice sounds.
He groans, pushing his face into my neck.
"Seriously baby, you're killing me right now."
I blush.
"Sorry."
Zane just shakes his head, holding me close while we both wait for our hearts to calm down, and
the smell of my arousal to dwindle down..
After a while he pulls away and gives me a smile.
"That was one hell of a kiss."
I blush again, nodding but I don't say anything and Zane laughs.
"Still just as shy as back then I see. Come on, let's go check on the kids."
I nod, allowing him to take my hand and leading me to their rooms.
We go to check on the boys first, who are still fast asleep before we go check on the girls, who
are both still fast asleep as well. Zane pulls the door close behind us.
"Since they are asleep still, do you maybe want to go to the kitchen and get something to drink
or eat and then just talk?"
I smile at him and nod.
"Yeah, that's sound good."
Zane nods back at me and we head for the kitchen.
"So, what do you think of everyone so far?"
"Well, everyone I've met so far seems really nice, I think we'll get along just fine. Although both your dad and Jake seem to hate me at the moment."
I say with a small frown.
"Don't worry about them. They'll get over it soon enough. But I'm glad to hear you like everyone. They seem to like you too, which is good. You'll be their Luna soon enough."
I arch my brow at him.
"Oh really?"
Zane nods.
"Yes, really. I'm not planning on letting you go."
I sigh.
"Zane, we really need to talk about everything at some point. I have a business back home, I can't just abandon it. I'd have to go back at some point. We had a life there. We can't just leave forever."
Zane frowns but nods.
"I know. I get that. At some point we'll go back and get your stuff and sort everything out. But we
can discuss that another time. Let's just enjoy our few days together without worrying about other stuff."
He looks at me, waiting for my response. I nod and smile.
"Fine, we can talk about all of it another time."
As we reach the kitchen I catch a smell, something that seems familiar but I can't really place it.
As soon as the smell hits us I look over at Zane, who tenses, and I frown.
"What's wrong?"
Zane looks at me and gives me a forced smile.
"It's nothing really.."
But before he can say anything else, someone comes out of the kitchen and bumps straight into
me.
Suddenly I realize what the smell was as I come face to face with the girl I saw Zane with in the kitchen five years ago.
I freeze in my place and she sneers at me.
"Watch where you're going."
I just stare after her as she pushes past me before I turn back to Zane with my heart racing.
