My Hunted Mate

Chapter Twenty Seven

Corinna

The three of us all snap our heads toward Lila, who's gaze is directed at Kai. I frown as I process her

words. " He's not going to hurt me. " I assure her.

She looks doubtful. " How do you know? "

" I am his beloved, I trust him. " I inform.

" What's a beloved? " Lila mumbles, out of the corner of my eye I see Dahlia tense.

" Dahlia will explain all that. " I tell her.

She chews on her lip. " You helped me. I remember you. "

I nod.

" you were.. you turned into a dog. " She whispers.

Dahlia chuckles, covering her mouth with her hand.

" A wolf. " I correct her.

She shifts on her feet. " How? "

" I'm a werewolf. Well part werewolf, part witch. " My statement makes Dahlia's eyes fill with shock, I

don't meet her gaze. Kai places another soft kiss to the side of my head.

" Wait hold, how didn't I know about this? " Dahlia cuts in.

" I only found out too. " Kai says absentmindedly, Dahlia seems a bit upset by this information but I pay

her no mind as my mate runs his hands down my arms making me lean into him more.

He hands stop over mine and he intertwines our fingers, a smile crosses my lips and I squeeze his

hands gently to show my affection. The sun slowly starts to rise in the sky, the clouds fading out of their

deep purple and into a burst of reds, oranges, pinks and yellows.

" Dahlia, if you don't have that bracelet on already, I'd put it on now. " Kai sings, my eyes close as he

brings his mouth to my ear, planting a wet open mouth kiss onto my lobe. I untangle myself from him so

I can turn around to face him, planting a kiss to his lips. Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

" Wow, you guys have suddenly become unbearable to be around. " Dahlia announces, seeming to

forget about the news of my hybrid status while her eyes focused on clasping her bracelet on, after a

couple of moments of her not being able to get it, I stand up to help her.

Kneeling in front of her, I grab the claps between my fingers linking them together easily. " Thank you

Doll. " She smiles at me.

I notice that Lila now has her eyes glued to the ground, with a light frown on her lips and that she has

moved a couple of steps toward her mate. The sun fully rises in the sky, I watch with admiration as Kai

lays back in the grass, his hands behind his head and a slight smile on his face while he soaks up the

sunrise, clearly enjoying every moment of it, just as he had over the weeks since I'd given him his ring.

I really love seeing him like this.

Walking back over to him, I lay down beside him in the grass making his eyes open as he lazily turns

his head to look at me, grinning. Something clicks deep inside of me, a deep warmth and happiness as

I gaze at him, everything around us seems to zone out as I take him in.

" Holy shit! " Dahlia squeals. " I am out in the sun right now! "

" I told you. " Kai mutters.

" Mal! We- vampires, are out in the sun and we are not burning! " She shouts in delight.

Kai chuckles, breaking our gaze to look over at his sister who is now standing up on the swinging

bench with her arms open wide, a huge grin on her face that's bathe in sunlight.

" I can't believe this. " She whispers.

She jumps down off of the bench, marching over to me. She pulls me up off of the ground and pulls me

into her arms, embracing me tightly as she thanks me. I hug her back for a couple of seconds before

pulling away.

" Okay maybe we should leave you two to take a walk around the garden and talk about everything. " I

say, moving my finger between Dahlia and Lila.

Kai stands up, throwing an arm over my shoulder. " Bye lil sis, enjoy your stroll. "

Dahlia waves us off, as she takes a seat on the bench, I see her patting the sit next to her trying to get

her mate to sit next to her as we walk away. Kai and I make our way back to the house, heading to his

room.

" That was really nice of you. " He tells me as we crawl into the bed together.

" And you said to just share a birthday gift with you. " I snort, making him chuckle.

" My mistake. " He smiles, pushing me onto my back so he can hover over me.

Reaching my hands up, I cup his face. " You're very pretty. "

He tilts his head. " I'm pretty? "

" Yes. " I confirm. " Please don't say some sexist comment about that being a feminine describing word,

because I will have to hit you. "

He laughs. " I didn't say anything. "

" Good. " I mumble, leaning up to peck his lips.

Not being able to hold myself up, I fall back onto the bed but he closes the space between us quickly. "

You're extremely breathtaking, do you know that? " he tells me, his lips brushing against mine.

" No, I'm most certainly no- "

He cuts me off by placing his lips on mine, my hands slide down his neck and chest and around onto

his back as our lips move together in synchronisation, his tongue meets my bottom lip causing me to

open my mouth and bring my tongue out to meet his.

My fingertips trail down his back until they reach the hem of his shirt, I slide my hands under the

material and up to his shoulder blades, pressing my fingernails into his skin when his bites my bottom

lip and sucks it into his mouth.

" You are jaw dropping, breath taking, stunningly beautiful my darling, don't ever say otherwise. "
