No Escape From My Ruthless Alpha

Chapter 145: Honeymoon

Next day when I fluttered my eyes open and stretched myself, I realized that I was on a very hard surface. A smile worked its way on my lips, when I lifted my head and saw him fully awake, looking at me with hooded eyes

"How are you feeling?" he asked in a rough voice. "Is your shoulder hurting?"

My shoulder? I turned my head and an ache burned through me. Of the red mark on my pulse point. I think the skin was still angry over there because I could feel the sting. "Not really." That ache was something I had looked forward to for so long

Drexel scooped a tangled strand of my hair away from my breasts and to the side to look at the mark. He circled the mark and licked it again

"I-I wanted to thank you," I said

"For what?"

"For saving me from that vampire."

His hand brushed the side of my mark again and then it came to the other side of my neck where the vampire had sucked me. "I couldn't let you go. I wouldn't." He got up, cradling me against

his chest, his back leaning against the headboard

My eyes flew to him, but he was looking at my neck, his brow furrowed. I swallowed thickly wanting to forget what that felt like. His words made me I was in awe of him. And I was crazily in love with him. His words tattooed in my mind, right through my soul. I curled my fingers around his as I met my gaze with his. "I love you."

His pupils dilated a little and he pressed a kiss to my temple. "I love you, too, Penelope." He leaned down and kissed me, his lips softly brushing mine. His kiss was slow and sweet and as if he knew that he had all the time in the world to be with me. He caressed my lips with his as if he was trying to learn the shape of my lips and the feel of my skin against his. A shudder passed through him. He pressed my lips with his and then rested his forehead against mine. His finger reached between us and he

wiped that solitary tear from my cheek. His chest heaved when he sucked in a sharp breath

And at that moment I knew that whatever masks he was wearing in front of me, cracked

He said, "Thank you for trusting me and giving me that one chance. If you hadn't, I would have "he choked. His lips trembled a little. He couldn't speak for a moment. Drawing in sharp breath, he said, "I would have got lost in darkness."

All I did was to hug him tightly. "Never would I allow you to go there."

We must have stayed like that for a long time because none of us wanted to move. It was then I remembered. "Hey, what about the condoms?"

Drexel's muscles tightened. "What about them?" he asked in a low, guarded voice

"You should have used them!" I swatted his chest. I had just finished my periods and I was sure that I was high on my fertility cycle. That meant that I could get pregnant easily. "Oh my God!" I rasped as I jumped out of his lap. "For all its worth, I might be pregnant right now!"

Drexel straightened. "I don't think so..." he said

"Goddess!" I got out of the bed and stabbed my hair with my fingers. "Why the hell didn't you use the condoms?" I snapped at him

"You can't use protection when you are marking

your female!" he cried

I jerked my head back. I guess he was right

"Okay..." replied, a little confused. "But you better use it now!"

He gulped and said, "Sure."

I smiled. He was looking so petrified. I walked over to him and kissed him. He relaxed under my touch. "Oh, by the way-" he said with a silly smile on his face. "I have booked tickets for our honeymoon to Hawaii!" "Really?" I squealed when he nodded. "And

when are we going?" I had never been out of my country. I was so excited by this surprise

"Today!" he said

By evening, after Drexel had personally seen off all the Alphas and Lunas of the packs under him and his allies, we were in our helicopter. Leo had mentioned to me that Drexel personally seeing them off was a big change. The chopper took us directly to the airport where we were ushered in private taxis to be taken to the airplane. I wondered what it would be to fly in one, but we were in business class and it was a breeze. For the entire journey, I snuggled up in my Alpha or slept or had good wine and food

We reached the island a few hours later and Drexel checked us in at a private resort that he had booked for us. The resort was... beautiful

The suite was large and had an amazing sea view. There was a cascading infinity pool and a

lavish spa. "How long are we here?" I asked as I

spun on my heels inside the room, excited like a child

"As long as you want to be, baby, and then some more," he said as he watched me with those dark, decadent eyes

We were there for two weeks. And these two weeks were the happiest of my entire life

Tonight I sat with him on a blanket on the beach, as I watched the driftwood fire languidly

The hotel staff had done everything Drexel demanded. Tonight they arranged for a small night out. Soft breeze soughed through the palm fronds. The night sky dazzled with the stars and the waning moon. I watched them with droopy eyes as U lay against his chest and mused over the time I spent with him over here

He played with my hair by lifting them in his hand and letting them slip from his fingers. "Do you like it?" he asked

"T love it!'

"Then I will buy a private island for you just off the coast of French Polynesia. I have zeroed on a few and I would like you to choose one," he replied casually

Goddess. Apparently, my Alpha was not just wealthy, he was obscenely rich. "You mean it would be in my name?"

"Ves. "

A girl could get used to that
