Chapter 70 

Lola’s POV 

The ride into the town was silent but comfortable. We did not need to talk to fill the void between us, our silence was peaceful. The only sound in the car was the one coming from the radio that was on. 

His hand that was on mine did not leave till we got to the center of the town. We were almost there when my phone dinged. I opened it and it turned out to be Lyla. 

“Yo, wanna hang out today? Feels like eternity since we saw your face“, the message read and I smiled. Adrian growled from beside me and I rolled my eyes at him before texting Lyla back. 

“I’m out of town with Adrian presently. I’ll let you know when we get back“, I replied to her before switching off my phone. Nothing was going to come in between my mate and I today. 

“Who was that?” Adrian asked when I dropped my phone back in my bag. “Jealous, are we?” I teased him and he ground his jaw together making me giggle. I like this Adrian, he gives me butterflies in my belly. 

“Of course not. I’m definitely not jealous of anything, I just want to know who you’re speaking to that made you smile“, he grumbled out and I started laughing loudly, making him pout adorably. 

“Oh my goddess, you’re so adorable. Of course you’re not jealous, you’re just curious“, I said to him and the tip of his ear became red. 

Who knew he was so easy to mess with?

“So who were you talking to?” He asked after a while. “Lyla. She wanted to meet up but I told her I was out of town“, he nodded and concentrated on the road. 

“We are here“, he said when we reached the mall I directed him to. He came to open the door for me and held my hand as I got out. 

“Where to first, my lady?” He asked with a fake accent, making me burst out laughing. “What’s that accent?” I asked, still laughing and he joined me. We got glances from passers–by but I didn’t care, I was enjoying just being in the presence of my mate. 

Just when I was about to answer, my stomach rumbled. I covered my face with my palms and he pulled me away from the car before he closed the door. “I know exactly where we are going“, he said as he pulled me to the mall. “How did I forget to feed you?” He muttered to himself as he kept moving. 

“You were too excited for our date“, I said under my breath but his Alpha ears picked it up. He glared at me and I made the motion of zipping up my lips. It’s best not to poke a wolf on a mission. 

He found a place for us and went to order food for us. I was amazed when he brought the food. There was so much food and I knew I couldn’t finish half of it. “Why did you get so much when there’s just the two of us?” I asked, still looking at the platter in amazement. 

“I did not know what you’d like and you seemed pretty hungry so I got almost everything I saw“, he replied, scratching the back of his neck. “Well, I can’t fit all of these in my tiny body“, I gestured to my body ast I spoke and he chuckled. 

“It’s a good thing you have me to help you fit it in my body then“, he said as he came to sit beside me, “now, dig in“. I smiled at him before I started eating. The first bite tasted like heaven and I moaned a little.

Adrian let out a groan beside me and I looked at him with a raised brow. “If you keep doing that, I might not be able to keep my promise of taking you only when you’re ready. You’re driving me insane and Daxon is barely holding on“, he whispered huskily into my ears and I involuntarily clenched my thighs. 

I cleared my throat and stuffed my face with food to stop the heat from spreading across my face but it was futile and he laughed a little before he started eating too.. 

After we finished eating, I felt like I was going to burst and had to unbutton my pants. Adrian did not seem to be affected even though he ate the majority of the food. I looked at him in awe and he gave me a boyish smile. 

“How are you still functioning?” I asked with labored breathing. Okay, maybe I was exaggerating but I still felt so full and he was the one who forced me to eat so much so I was being a bit dramatic. 

“You’re just being dramatic“, he chuckled and I glared at him. “I know what will make you feel okay“, he said and I sat up to hear him. “What’s that?” I asked eagerly. 

“I saw a park on our way here. We should go there and check it out. It will be an avenue to get to know what you like and also burn the food you ate“, he said. I clapped excitedly and nodded. 

He took my hands and led me out of the food court. As we entered the parking lot, I felt like I was being watched and looked around but I did. not see anything out of place. I did not know I had stopped until Adrian tugged on my hand. 

“Is anything the matter, baby?” He asked and I shook my head. It’s probably just in my head. I put on a smile and followed after him. 

Today is all about focusing on my mate and getting to know him, not 

worrying about things that are out of place. 

He drove us to the park and I was amazed by what I saw. The park was filled with a lot of people, they seemed to be having some form of party and the memories of coming here with Mom and Dad sparked in my head, bringing tears to my eyes. 

I got out of the car before Adrian could open the door for me and we went into the park together.
