Chapter 68 

Lola’s POV 

“Are you for real?” He asked after I said what I said. I nodded my head, giving him a watery smile through my tears. He returned it with a real smile and hugged me again. After he pulled back, he wanted to look at my face but I looked away. 

“Don’t look at me,I probably look ugly with my tear stricken face. Like a broken tomato“, I covered my face with my hands. I was expecting him to laugh but he didn’t. Instead, he pried my hands away from my face and gave me a serious look. 

“You’ll always look pretty to me no matter what. Don’t ever call yourself ugly again, okay?” He said with so much emotions in his eyes. and I nodded. 

“We’re going on the date tomorrow. No plans will be made. You’ll be the one to choose where to go. My duty is to follow your instructions and make tomorrow a day you’ll never forget in the history of our love“, he gave me a boyish grin and my heart melted. 

“If only he hadn’t been a jerk earlier“, Jasmine sighed dreamily in my head, “we’d have had the sweetest man in the wolf world to ourselves earlier“, she sighed and I totally agreed with her. 

“I’ve always thought you were a meanie and proud person“, I blurted out without thinking and he looked at me with crease on his forehead, his eyebrows furrowed in confusion. 

“Was it because I ignored you when you arrived and treated you the way I did?” He asked. He continued before I could answer him, “I promise you that all my actions had reasons. Looking back, they were

stupid reasons but I promise to explain everything. I hope you’ll understand me after I explain to you“, he finished sadly. 

I felt my heart breaking for him. He looked totally sad and regretful. 

“I wasn’t talking about what you did to me though“, I said in hopes of lifting his mood. “Oh, what were you referring to?” He asked while scratching the back of his neck adorably. 

“I was talking about the other pack members. You barely relate with them and they do not have access to their future Alpha. I only said what I’ve heard them say about you“, I finished and he sighed. 

“I promise to do better“, his eyes held so much sincerity and I nodded. I’m also going to do my best to make us work out. That further strengthened my resolve to make sure we win this war. 

I can’t lose this new life that promised me happiness. I waited eight years to have it and I won’t let any psycho snatch it from me. 

We stayed in the office until Rose mindlinked Adrian and we went to have lunch. The rest of day was uneventful and it went by. Dinner also went by without any major event. 

When it was time to call it a night, I refused to go to my room and entered Adrian’s room, without waiting for his permission. 

“I see that you don’t want to sleep in your room anymore“, Adrian said. with a smile on his face when I came out of his bathroom dressed in another one of his shirts. 

“Do I hear you complaining?” I asked with my hands on my waist. He made the motion of locking up his mouth and throwing the keys away. That simple gesture elicited a giggle from me and I went to lay beside him on the bed. 

He pulled me into his side and dropped a kiss on my forehead. This

made me warm and fuzzy inside and I felt myself drifting off to sleep. 

“Goodnight, my queen“, was the last thing I heard before I slept off. 

The next morning. I woke up in a happy mood. Yayyyyyy, date day. I looked towards Adrian’s side of the bed to find him looking at me already. My face heat up and I hid it in the pillow. 

“Looking like a ripe tomato, already? It’s just 6 am, baby“, he laughed. lightly and I rolled my eyes at him. “I want Daxon, Daxon wouldn’t be so mean to be“, I said just to spite him and he stopped laughing immediately. 

“Jealous of your own wolf?” I asked between fits of laughter at his face, he looked somewhat mad. I closed the space between us and dropped a kiss on his lips before trying to scramble away. 

Keyword: try. 

He was faster than me and grabbed my waist, making me shriek with laughter. “You’re going to pay for what you did“, he said before he started tickling me. 

I was laughing so hard from the tickling, I almost peed my panties. Suddenly, an image of little me being tickled by an older man while a baby giggled with joy in a woman’s arms from across 

the room appeared to me. “Daddy“, the little me shrieked happily. 

The scene suddenly changed and it was little me covered in blood, screaming for my parents and little brother. My breathing became laboured as the screaming got louder. 

I felt myself being shaken but I couldn’t get out of the memory. I heard Adrian’s voice in a distance and I latched to it to bring myself to the present. 

“Hey, hey, you’re okay. I’m here for you. Look at me baby“, his voice became clearer as I calmed down. He looked worried and I hugged him immediately I was calm. It wasn’t until my face touched his top that I realized that I’ve been crying. 

“What was that about? Did I trigger a bad memory in you?” He asked and I sighed. “I seriously have no idea what just happened“, I muttered into his chest. 

“We’re cancelling the date“. he started, “we can go another time“. I shook my head and sat back on the bed. “No, we’re going on that date“. I argued, “in fact. I’ve picked out the place I want to go. Be ready before 10 am“. I stood up from the bed and made my way to the door. 

I was about to open the door when he called out, “where exactly are we going?” He asked in confusion. “Human town“, i answered. opened the door and closed it without looking at his facial expressions. 

I needed answers and I was going to get it.
