Capítulo 21: I love you

Ace's POV

After Azalea's mother made her way outside. I moved closer to my mate and without thinking enveloped her in a hug. I've never been the cuddling type, but I just felt like I had to, like she needed me to. She gave in to the hug, a few seconds later her body stiffened, and she gently pushed herself away from me.

“I... I'm sorry kitten I didn't mean to... I only... I... thought…” why the fuck am I stuttering...and why do I fell a pang in my heart? She didn't want to be in my arms, she... Fuck I feel hurt like some pussy whipped guy, I rejected her, I shouldn't feel that way.

“Well she didn't reject us shit bag, so the bond is still there, stronger on her side though, she might feel worse than you asshole.” Achilles replied to my inner reflection.

I took a step back and excused myself.

As I was making my way toward the door, I heard her saying.

“Carter... hum, can we please talk somewhere private?”
