Chapter 32: _ Hero
"Come babe, we have things to discuss." Kylo pulled me closer and huddled me in the direction of my room when he abruptly turned as though he had just remembered something.
To Lupe. "Huh? Isn’t she..." His voice trailed off.
I understood what he meant and so did Lupe. "Yeah, Kylo. Her name’s Lupe. She came to become friends." I shrugged, gesturing for Lupe to come closer.
Kylo was obviously flabbergasted but he tried to conceal it. "Erh — Hi, Lupe. Glad to see that you have chosen to be a better person."
Ouch. Did he really have to say that? I choked on my laugh.
"Hi, Kylo. Thank you — I guess." Lupe didn’t seem to pick an offense as she sheepishly chuckled.
I tugged at Kylo’s arm. "Alright, alright, Kylo. Let’s leave this bunch to their fun."
"You mean lets go do some naughty things, don’t you?" Cullen scoffed and I shook my head.
If only there was any pillow in check. "Suck my dick, Cullen."
"Gladly!"
.
As we entered my room, Kylo’s cool dropped. He held both of my hands immediately.
"Are you okay? I’ve been worried ever since you called about sensing vampires." He said, worry creasing lines between his brows.
Oh, I almost forgot about that. But then, I sensed both vampires and something else...
Someone else.
I cupped his hands in return. "Yes, Kylo. I think I must have been earlier paranoid. It might just be my mind playing a trick on me. Let’s not fuss about it. I shouldn’t have bothered you."
"Nonsense, babe, nonsense! It’s not a bother at all." He moved closer and cupped my face. "I want to know everything about you, Megami. Everything that bothers you. We are one."
Are we now?
My guilt eat me up from the inside. I couldn’t even look Kylo in the eyes. I sulked and went to sat on the bed. Kylo came to join me.
"Do you think those vampires you sensed has anything to do with the bones found in the pack today?" He asked.
I could have said yes but I wasn’t sure what I sensed. I did sense a lot things that weren’t there. "We can not rely on my abilities, Kylo. Even I am not sure I have any ability."
"Oh, come on, babe! Of course, you do. You can sense creatures that aren’t our kinds at a certain radius. You are special. If an omega has such an ability that the rest of us don’t have, then I say she’s better than us." His hands played with my hair, rubbing them.
I swallowed. If only Kylo wasn’t this sweet. If only he wasn’t this perfect, it’d be easier to tell him about the mate bond. However, I just couldn’t stand breaking his heart.
Geez, I feel like the worst person in the universe.
"Even if it means its the vampires I sensed, what difference does it make?" I shrugged.
Kylo’s genius mode was activated right away. "Aha. Glad you said that. Firstly, it’ll help prevent such attacks. You’ll be saving lives, Isleen. Do not waste this gift."
"I’m no hero, Kylo." I countered.
"Yet. You aren’t one yet. But you will be. Listen, Isleen, this would help improve your presence in the pack. People would stop seeing you as just an omega who is being foolish by dating who she shares no mate bond with. It’ll mean you’ll get less bullied everywhere you go. It means peace for you, Megami." Kylo’s gaze interlocked with mine.
I could read the sincere love for me in them. I used to harbor the same genuineness until yesterday. I wondered if Kylo would switch off too when he found his mate. Do I want him to?
Why wasn’t I hurt by the thought of Kylo loving someone else?
Hell, something had gone wrong with me.
I sighed. "Are you saying this because you want to look out for me? Because you want me to be respected in the pack?"
"Yes and no." Kylo replied. "Yes, I want you to be respected. Yes, it hurts me deeply that you can’t move freely without getting gossiped at, getting pointed at and other shits, babe. But mostly, I want you to do this for me. Sometimes, I wonder if I should just set you free. Say goodbye to you and let you find your mate. Maybe then, the bullying will come lesser. I feel like I’m the reason why you cry most days. Like I’m bad for being with you and letting you go through all of this."
This did hit my heart. Kylo was the sweetest soul I had ever known and would ever come to know.
"Oh, Kylo." I placed my hand on his chest after hearing how fast his heartbeat was accelerating. "You are just..."
He cut the words off my mouth by bringing his lips on mine. He kissed me so tenderly like I was a thing that could bring should he apply pressure.
It was a stark contrast to how Gamma Rhett had kissed me earlier; raw and needy. Like if he reduced his pace, I might evaporate and never return. Like he didn’t want any other thing apart from my lips and body.
Now, which was best? Which would a lady want?
Wait, why was I comparing kissing Kylo to his Dad? Oh lord, what in the hell’s name was I becoming?
Kylo’s hands had traveled under my cloth. This time, I remembered what it was like to love and desire him and hence, I kissed him crazily back. As his hands slipped under my cloth and found my small breasts, I clutched at his hair for support.
Kylo set me on the bed, smiling at me passionately. He slowly began to remove my top, doing it so gently that I thought it’d take forever to pull them off.
Finally, when he was done, he carefully placed them on the bed and started licking my skin from my underbelly, all the way up.
A grain escaped my lips and I shut my eyes, preparing to receive pleasure.
