Love Grows In The Dark by Eli Lowe (ebook offline txt) 📗

racing for her, realising that she was not just the alpha but also my mate, my love and the mother of our pup who was hiding quietly underneath her dress and going to be born any day soon.

I did not realise how time passed within a blink of an eye, cause it was just Summer who was all over my mind, my heart and even my sight, nothing else during the entire ceremony.

I saw how she cut her palm with the dagger without any hesitation to take the blood oath as the alpha of the Lunar High pack, along with Kaith who did the same and pledged to stay by his alpha in good and bad to protect their pack.

The whole ground soon filled with cheers as all of them kept applauding for the new alpha and beta of the Lunar High pack, and then went busy to congratulate both of them one by one, leaving me no time and opportunity to steal my mate away, along with me to someplace quiet where there would be only me and her.

I just kept watching her from a distance and saw her oozing with a great happiness. And I really did not want her to interrupt as I was enjoying seeing her like this way.

She was definitely glowing more and more, and soon I could not hold back my temptation to approach her at last but only to keep her to me only for the rest of the night.

And finally!!

Finally, I had succeeded in persuading her to come with me.

Soon, we stopped before my car and opened the door of the passenger seat for her, but she did not move right away, instead, she kept shifting her eyes from me and to the car, for no reason at all.

“Whose car is this?” She asked all of a sudden, and I saw how hesitant she was to get into the car.

I guess, now I know why she did not move earlier when I asked her to get in.

“It is mine, baby. Or whose else it could be?” I replied with a smirk, cause I was loving to see her with such a shocking expression.

“You are better not kidding with me, Kazan. This is Mercedes-Maybach for god's sake.” Summer yelled in utter shock and frustration as she just could not believe in my words easily. I wonder why?

What is so wrong in the fact that I own this car?

“So? Did you always think that your mate is some poor alpha, just because he rides some random bike, lives in the pack-house with others, works in a garage, never wears some expensive clothes and never does anything to show off?” I asked barely holding myself back from laughing at her current facial expression. She was indeed looking like as if she was seeing some ghosts.

“But you do ride some random bikes, and work in garage even when you are an alpha. Though I never thought that you are poor but I indeed have never imagined that you could even own such a car.” She answered making a pout on her mouth, and for the slightest moment I felt like stealing a kiss from her right away, but I held myself back for now.

“That is because I love to live a normal life, baby. I know that money can never bring me happiness for which I kept longing since I was a kid. But since when I found you, I only craved for your love and nothing else. And now I can not be happier when you are going to give me a little pup soon. We are going to be mom and dad, Summer. We will have a family. Don't you think that this kind of happiness is the real treasure? And if you ask me, I will never trade this for anything else, no matter how expensive that thing is.

Cause you are my world, Summer.” It seemed that my words froze Summer completely as she kept looking into my eyes with wide eyes without even blinking her eyes for one single time.

A lovely crimson but soon overtook on her cheeks, turning her even more beautiful than ever. In fact, she is always the most beautiful girl I have ever seen.

At such a moment, when she was already looking so tempting, I could not hold myself back any longer and pulled her into my chest in an instant and invaded into her mouth with my tongue, deepening the kiss more and more to quench my thirst which I was holding on for long, now.

I did not realise how long our lips were entangled together, until both us fell short of breath and we needed to let go of each other at last, even when I was craving for more.

Neither Summer said anything this time.

“Umm... We should go now.” I said lowly and loosened my grip from her waist just before I helped Summer get into the passenger seat at the front of my car.

Then I got into the driver's seat without wasting any further time, only after I was assured that Summer was all settled comfortably, and started the car to turn its wheels towards a place which is very close to my heart.

“Where are we going?” She asked in her low voice after some time.

“You will see.” I replied in short as I did not want to reveal the surprise even before we could reach there.

“But this road... It goes to the... Are we going to the lake?” Summer asked with so much curiosity in those olive-green eyes and I just could not help but smirk, seeing that I was about to get caught.

And soon, I stopped the car in front of the Lake View Park.

Cause we were going to walk from her.

“Come.” As soon as I got out of the car, I opened the
