SWNOVELS True Luna: The Unknown Magic: Chapter 19
Sophia’s POV
My whole body was trembling. His lips tasted amazing. His scent surrounded me like a blanket. I was in heaven and I never wanted to leave.
But I had to.
I couldn’t hurt him. I had to find a way to control my magic first. I had to find a way to get rid of the darkness first.
I needed to stop this. I needed to get away from him. One more taste of him and I would cave. I would let him mark me right here against the wall.
I stopped kissing him and leaned my head against the wall.
He looked at me and caressed my cheek.
“Fuck, Sophia,” he mumbled, leaning in and taking a deep breath.
His nose touched my jaw and my whole body shivered.
“Do you think that I am going to let you go?” he asked. “You are a treasure, Angel. I am not letting you go. I don’t give a shit about the past. I don’t give a shit about your magic. You are my mate. I am not giving you up.”
My heart raced. I pressed my body closer to the wall, trying to get away from him so I could think clearly.
“Hunter…,” I spoke, but he interrupted me.
“No, Angel,” he said softly. “I don’t want to hear your excuses. Nothing you say will make me want you less.”
“You should want me less, Hunter,” I mumbled. “I am dangerous. The darkness…”
“Is a part of you,” Hunter finished for me. “I know that. I accept that. I will help you deal with it. I am not running away from this.”
There was a huge lump in my throat. I couldn’t swallow it. I couldn’t take a deep breath because of it. My stomach was in knots. My heart was going a mile a minute.
He didn’t know what he was talking about. He didn’t know anything about my magic.
“Goddess, Sophia, I am so fucking in love with you,” he mumbled as he cupped my cheeks. “Please let me show you that I will be there for you no matter what.”
Warm tears fell on my cheeks. He wiped them away with his thumbs.
“You don’t know how bad it is, Hunter,” I mumbled. “I need to find a way to get rid of it before I accept you. I want you. I want you so badly, but I wouldn’t be able to live with myself if I hurt you.”
A small smile spread across his face making me furrow my eyebrows. I was confused. Why was he smiling?
“All I heard is that you want me too,” he said. “That’s enough, Sophia. We will do everything else together. Our parents and your magic aren’t an issue. We will deal with it together.”
I studied his face for a moment. Didn’t he hear me when I said that my magic was dangerous?
He kissed me again before I could argue. His soft lips touched mine and I forgot what we were even talking about.
He tangled his fingers into my hair and pulled my head back gently. He started kissing my jaw and my neck, making me moan quietly. His lips touched my marking spot and I gasped. A funny feeling made my lower belly clench.
“I will mark you soon, my love,” he mumbled against my neck. “I can’t wait to do it. I can’t wait to make you mine. I can’t wait to show the world that this wonderful woman belongs to me.”
I shivered and gulped.
He started sucking on my marking spot gently, making me grab the back of his shirt.
My eyes rolled to the back of my head and I pressed my body closer to his.
His hands traveled down my body, making every part of my skin tingle. He picked me up into his arms and wrapped my legs around his waist. He stepped closer, pressing me harder against the wall.
“Don’t ever try to leave me again,” he said softly. “My heart almost gave out.”
His lips pressed against mine again. I tightened my arms and legs around him.
I could feel every muscle on his body. I could feel how hard he was. It made blood rush to my cheeks. It made my skin burn.
He pressed his lower body against mine and groaned.
“Soon,” he mumbled. “Soon you will be completely mine, Angel.”
My mind was completely blank. I felt like I was on a cloud. All I could feel were his hands on my body. All I wanted was to feel his lips on my skin.
“Hunter…,” I moaned quietly, making him tighten his arms around me.
“Yes, Angel?” he mumbled as he started biting my earlobe gently.
Oh, shit. His deep voice made the need for him explode inside of me. His warm breath on my neck made every hair on my body stand up.
“We need to talk,” I mumbled, but I had no idea what we needed to talk about.
“About what, my love?” he asked as he pressed his lips to mine again.
I reached up and tangled my fingers into his hair, pulling on it gently. He groaned and deepened our kiss.
I tried to focus. I tried to clear the haze around my brain.
I needed to talk to him.
I had so much to tell him.
I ran my hand up and down his muscular back. I was only making things worse for myself.
“Talk, Angel,” he mumbled as he bit my lower lip gently.
Was he crazy? I couldn’t even remember my name while he was touching me and kissing me like that.
I stopped kissing him and pulled back a little. I needed a little bit of space so I could think clearly.
He looked at me and chuckled. “You can’t talk and kiss me at the same time?”
I frowned at him, making him grin widely. If I was standing up, my knees would buckle. He was beautiful.
“I need you to know everything before you make your decision,” I managed to mumble. “I will tell you everything about me and my magic. You deserve to know everything before you accept me.”
Hunter sighed and caressed my cheek. He placed a soft kiss on my lips.
“Okay, my love,” he said. “I already made my decision, but I will listen. I want to know everything about you. I want to know how I can help you.”
I wasn’t sure if he could.
I smiled at him and pressed my lips against his. He moaned and deepened the kiss, making me melt into him.
I would tell him everything and let him decide. I needed him to know the truth. I couldn’t let him do this without knowing everything about my magic. I couldn’t let him risk everything before he knew the whole truth.
