Her Possessive Alpha

Chapter 66: SIXTY-SIX

Let love lead

“Why have you been avoiding me, Kiara?”

She doesn’t have an answer to that question, she only responded with a blank face while her

thoughts continued in her head. Why didn’t she see him on time? How easy it would have been for her

to escape from this situation, but now she is trapped, with no other choice than to face him. She does

not want to be here now, she’s not ready to face him, not after all that’s happened between them.

Cian saw her expression, and held concern for her in his eyes. He let go of her hand and

continued speaking to her softly, letting out a sigh first.

“Alpha Lucas told me to relieve you of your assignments this morning. He says you’ve been facing

some challenges.” Kiara held her gaze down, she didn’t feel like talking about this now, especially not

with the man that caused her to feel like this. Cian continued speaking not withstanding her silence.

“I know how hard this all must be for you Kiara, I just wanted us to talk about what happened the

other night, but it’s as though you want to ignore your feelings.”

Kiara looked up and spoke then. “What feelings?”

“The feelings you have for me Kiara, I know that night didn’t just happen, there was a connection

between us, like a second bond, and it pains me to see you acting this way, ignoring and avoiding me

like I did something wrong.”

Was that how he felt? She looked into his eyes, they were crystalline, warm and sad. Did she

really make him feel this way?

She let go of the breath she was holding, and passed by his side to take a seat, he also went and

sat beside her before she continued the conversation. “I’m sorry Cian. I didn’t know you felt that way,

it’s just…” Her eyes were beginning to well up, why was she getting so emotional now? And why in

front of him? Oh, how she hated herself for this.

She felt a hand on the back of her palm where it sat on her lap, Cian held her hand as if assuring

her.

“I’m not going to hurt you Kiara, and I will never leave you if that’s what you’re scared of. I love

you, Kiara.”

She stared up at him astonishingly, she didn’t expect those last three words to come out of his

mouth, neither did he but they did, and there was no taking them back, his feelings were genuine and

he would do well to keep his promise of never leaving her, besides there was no need to hide them

anymore. Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

All she could let out were stutters because of the tears she was choking back.

“D-d-do y-you r-r-really mean w-w-what you said?” She asked that question because she had

never heard the words ‘I love you’ from anyone before. It might sound crazy but it was the truth. Love

was a strange word to her, she’s always waited for the day she would hear it from someone who really

meant it, but she never did; never from her parents, not from Alpha Lucas, never even from the time

she was mated with Paul.

“Every word of it, Kiara. I love you and I promise that I will never leave you. If I ever lose you by

mistake, I promise to search all the ends of the earth, I don’t care how long it would take before I find

you, but I am willing to go these lengths and even more for you.”

“Oh Cian… I really hope you mean what you’re saying.”

“I do Kiara, I really do. So please, stop avoiding me and continue to go on the assignments with

me. I need you as much as you need me, and I do hope that we’ll be joined together someday.”

“I love you too Cian, and I’m sorry for avoiding you. I hope to be joined to you too.”

She reached forward and wrapped her arms around his neck, he took her in his arms accepting

her embrace. The two fit each other well, like a key fits its lock, like a thread fits a needle, she believed

in his words because she saw nothing but sincerity in his eyes, and she hoped in her heart that their

union would last forever as he pulled her lips for a gentle kiss...

“Beautiful, I love it so much Reena!” Ava remarked as she looked into the shiny mirror in the

sample gown the seamstress made for her size. Reena held the gown together with temporary stitches,

it was only left for Ava to try on the gown to fit before Reena added the finishing touches, and as she

put it on, she couldn’t have looked any more elegant in that black tulip flowing gown.

“Looks like I will be joining you to get a dress made for the ball too!”

Ava turned to direction of Kiara’s voice, the she wolf had just entered the seamstress’s quarters,

beaming with nothing but smiles, it didn’t take Ava any explanation to know that Kiara had finally sorted

out things with Cian, just like she did, letting her heart lead.
