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

I wasn't in a state to think carefully about whatever he was saying, I kept listening to him only to engrave his words deep in my mind.

Mate seemed a bit taller than me as he needed to bend in order to merge both of our bodies fully without leaving any space in between. And still, as he was not satisfied, he pulled me even closer and lifted me up, to stand on his feet so that he could go on with his own act of nipping my little bit of exposed skin.

I couldn't say anything, neither could I stop him as I kept drowning with all those sudden feeling that I was greeted with every single touch of my mate.

“I even want to do all those perverted things that my friends kept doing with anyone and everyone, as far as they are girls, but I wanted to find you as soon as possible to...to do everything that I kept missing only to try them out with you.” His words shook me out of my oblivion in no time and I tried to move myself as soon as possible, out of his tight grip around my body in sudden fear. But I failed.

Because his grip didn't lose but tightened further just when he pulled his head back from my neck only to say in a stern voice,

“And you won't try to run away from me, never ever. I didn't do anything with others cause I knew my limits as I am not a pervert as you might be thinking right now. But I want to be one only for you.” As soon as he uttered his words dangerously, I felt one of his hands trailed down to my hips only to grab my ass in such a pervert way. No one ever dared to touch me like that before, except him right now and I could not even move an inch to save myself from his savage act as I never felt this weak in front of anyone.

“Don't touch me. Let me go.” I was able to scream finally, but as if my words fell on his deaf ears. Even though I tried to push him away with all my might, I could not make him move. Neither did he let go of me.

I started to feel that I have really done a great mistake this time.

How could I be so naive to think that I might fall in love with someone who is a total stranger? So what he is my mate? What if he is a big pervert? What if he is a perfect liar?

A lot of vicious thoughts kept clouding my mind.

I kept trying to free myself even though I knew that I was trapped completely.

“I will never let you go. At least not when I am still alive.” With that, his lips invaded mine all of a sudden ever so roughly.

Mate kept kissing me in the dark without letting his grip loose even for a bit, while his other hand started to conquer my body like a savage. His lips were moving on me ever so clumsily declaring the fact that his kiss was as imperfect as anyone's first kiss should be. And I was no better.

The loud beats of our hearts in the silent night appeared like drum beats, announcing that it was not just me who was trapped by the menacing act of the moment but mate too. As his each and every move on me proved that he was nervous, fearing that he would surely lose me if he let go even for a second.

I wondered if I was really mistaking him as the very person whom I hated.

But his intense kiss didn't let me think much as he shoved his tongue inside my mouth in no time and started to entangle with mine clumsily. Even though he was clueless about how to kiss, it was indeed something to make my heart skip a lot of beats.

The heat didn't take time to build up in between us as we became so involved in finding one another while losing ourself at the same time.

At last, he pulled himself back from his imposing kiss only when both of us struggled to breathe further.

“I can't live without you. And also you have promised me that you won't leave me ever, no matter what.

So, say again that you won't leave me.

Say it.” His deep voice was still panting due to the wild kiss that we just shared.

Seeing me absolutely stupefied, he took my hand to place it on his chest where his heart was still beating even louder and faster only to hear just a few words.

“I won't leave you.” As soon as I said, my lips got enclosed once again by his another desperate kiss.

Episode 17

Summer's P.O.V

I have never imagined that even someone like me could be dragged into such enticement of a mate bond. All those feelings that once I knew were only a myth for me, were now proving me wrong completely.

The night was still dark and the alley was even darker but for the first time, I was feeling like I was not alone anymore. Even though my life got no better than before, my heart started pounding with a new hope, with a whole new desire to fight for love.

Tonight I felt needed, I felt loved for the first time ever since.

It was not that I was not scared, as I was well aware of the thousands of possibilities to fall deeper into the darkest pit of my life, still, I wanted to fly up for once, I wanted to spread my wings of freedom to chase after the slightest light which came through, unknowingly.

And I was like one such moth who fell in love with the flame once, even though she
