Chapter 28: His touch could quench"But if I won’t kiss you, my wish won’t be granted," Gabriel said, keeping his gaze fixed at her. "What did you ask for?" Amelie questioned, still keeping the hand between them. Gabriel didn’t say anything and moved back. Meanwhile, Amelie lowered her hand, thinking if she did wrong. She remembered the deal they had made, yet she broke it first. Gabriel was too good that he didn’t remind her of that every time. But Amelie didn’t want to take advantage of his kindness all the time. "Gabriel, I’m sorry for not keeping the words I have given you when you rescued me," Amelie began. "I would be asking too much from you, but Gabriel, I need time. I know you are finding your own answers while being around you." "Shall we go?" Gabriel asked with an indifferent tone. This time it lacked warmth and she realised it was because of her reluctance to kiss him. "Don’t be angry with me," Amelie said, holding his hand, thus stopping him from walking away. "You overthink a lot," Gabriel said, tilting his head to meet her gaze. "I indeed want answers, but I also want you." He spotted her few loose hair strands and tucked them behind her ears. "Why didn’t you tell me that in the office some employees tried tarnishing your character? Why did I learn from my gamma than you? Didn’t I give you authority to shut such mouths?" Gabriel suddenly questioned her. His sudden outburst made her realize that the prince was possessive of her and nothing was hidden from her. "Isn’t that the reason you refused to let me kiss you?" Gabriel murmured. "I can read you easily, Amelie." The pad of his fingers traced a gentle path along her cheek, igniting a warmth that she couldn’t ignore. Amelie lowered her gaze. "It’s not always necessary to answer everything," she whispered. "And it’s not untrue that you’ve given me all of this because of the night I spent with you." She paused, her fingers tightening slightly at her sides. "But I don’t regret it," she admitted. "Meeting you is the most beautiful thing that has ever happened to me." Gabriel’s expression softened. He held her hands, rubbing them slowly. "If you will keep saying such words, I may blush," he murmured. "What?" Amelie exclaimed before chuckling. "Did you send Denzel to me today?" Gabriel tilted his head slightly, amusement flickering in his eyes. "What do you mean?" "Umm... It was my first day at work, and you weren’t in the office. The employees were already talking about our relationship, and then suddenly, Denzel showed up, asking me to have lunch with him." Amelie narrowed her eyes playfully. "You did that, didn’t you? So I wouldn’t feel out of place." Gabriel smirked. "I didn’t know you were this sharp." "It wasn’t hard to notice," she replied with confidence. He leaned in slightly, his voice dropping to a low murmur. "Hmm. Then, don’t you think I deserve a reward for my efforts?" Amelie immediately understood what he was hinting at. A teasing smile played on her lips. "Close your eyes," she instructed. Gabriel arched a brow. "Why?" "Just close them," she insisted, stepping closer. With a knowing smirk, Gabriel finally complied, shutting his eyes. His heart pounded in anticipation. It had always been a challenge to get Amelie to surrender to moments like this. He was Gabriel, someone any she-wolf would willingly throw herself at. Yet here he was, waiting, hoping, for Amelie’s one kiss.

Amelie was ready to step back, but Gabriel was far from over with this. His hands shot out and his arm wrapped around her waist, his hand cradling her neck before drawing her close to him. His eyes were opened, eager to see that flustered expression on her face. A smirk appeared on his lips, his tongue traced her lips, seeking an entry to her mouth. The illuminated flowers jiggled, a rare phenomenon, which happened only when the mates were bound together by their fate. Amelie gave in and her lips parted slightly. She was unable to keep on her toes when Gabriel suddenly lifted her in the air, shocking her. Before she could react to that, she felt his tongue in her mouth, teasing hers. Her nails dug into his blazer in nervousness, her heartbeats were already rapid. The kiss was nothing like she had shared with him that night. It was more possessive and hungry. It appeared like he was craving for her. But why her body was reacting the same way? Why was she suddenly feeling a burning sensation in her body as if only his touch could quench it? She moved her head, matching his pace, her one hand reaching his cheek, thus keeping a hold there. In that moment, she forgot everything. All that mattered was this kiss and Gabriel. His scent turning stronger than ever, making her head spin, intoxicating her completely. Meanwhile, for Gabriel and his wolf, the feeling as entirely different. ’Mine,’ Gabriel repeated this word in his mind with every nibble. The touch of her hand on his cheek made him realize only she could make him feel this calm even when he and Valko felt hungry for her. He finally made Amelie land on the ground, her back tilting backward and he realized it was the time to pull away. As he withdrew from the kiss, they both gasped for air and his eyes noticed how swollen he left her lips. Amelie stared into his eyes in disbelief, realizing how badly she wanted him. His violet eyes sent a shiver down her spine for some reason. "I hope this reward was good enough," Amelie said, taking deep breaths. "More than enough. Now, it has left with a need of more. Don’t deny that you don’t feel the same," Gabriel muttered. His piercing gaze made Amelie gulp slowly. Indeed, she wanted him to explore every inch of her body. ’I am going mad. Moon Goddess, what kind of fate are you knitting for me?’ Amelie thought.
