You Kissed My Soul

Dylan Pov

I watched her expression as I applied the ice pack on her strained ankle. She was continuously staring at me as if I were some ghost.

“Ahhh!” She cried when I applied a little pressure on her ankle.

"Oh Sorry!” I apologized.

"What in the world are you doing here?” She yelled when she got out of her little world.

"Uh applying ice pack on your leg I guess” I told her as I watched her eyes growing the size of saucer.

“Oh right!” She said confused then as if it stroke her mind she narrowed her eyes and starts the glaring.

“I mean what are you doing here?” She spoke explaining me by moving her hands.

“I told yo-" she cut me off “No! Not this ice thing I mean what are you" she pointed her index finger towards me “Here” she pointed her finger towards her house.

“That only I said helping you” I told her and watched as she began to shake with anger.

“What the hell Dylan?” and she was back to yelling.

I rolled my eyes and continued doing my work.

"Don’t ignore me now" she yelled as I stopped applying the ice pack.

“No! You continue with that thing and listen to me” she pointed towards the ice pack.

I made a face to her strangeness but continued applying the ice pack.

"How did you find me? And what are you doing in my house? Didn't I told you to leave me alone you stalker” she began to yell again.

I am a werewolf king for god sake. Finding her is almost easy for me. All I had to do was to send a mind image of her to every werewolf in this world to help and eventually I was informed three weeks earlier about her and that is how I found her. I found out everything about her easily. Where she was staying. What she was doing everything.

I eventually came to know about her match. At first I was angry about it. I didn't want her to take risk about her life. What if something happened to her in that match?

But when I saw to she was training day and night for the match, seeing her hardworking and determination I gave up the feeling to stop her from in that match.

I was actually stalking her from this last few weeks. Everyday seeing her work out made my day. Her strength was growing day by day and so was my enthusiasm to see her fighting. My wolf was very much proud of his mate who was not only strong but can take care of herself.

Aderyn never depended upon anyone for living and that is why I respect her decision the most of taking part in that match. I had faith on her that she will surely make it and win. And she did.

"And you!” She screamed pointing her finger towards the old lady whose name was Greta.

"You are also a werewolf? A freaking werewolf?” she screamed while Greta nodded.

Turns out she was living with a Luna. Her mate Alpha of a pack has died few years ago and since then she has been living alone in here, not alone exactly, with Aderyn while her son who is the Alpha now, runs the pack.

"Yes Luna” Greta spoke as she bowed her head a little.

Eventually, Greta came to know that Aderyn was the Queen and since then she has been treating Aderyn appropriately.

"Again Luna!” Aderyn threw her hands in the air irritated.

“What is wrong with you?” She exclaimed as she put the ice pack on her head “Ah my head" she sighed.

"Will you just relax a little? Your muscles are tensed” I spoke up seeing as her muscle tensed under my hand.

"How in the world am I gonna relax until you tell me what are you doing here?” She cried as she began to hit her head using the ice pack.

"Hey relax!" I stood up and took away the ice pack away from her.

“Probably she got a hit on her head during that fight. That's why she was behaving like a mad woman” I thought.

“I am mad? What did you say? I am mad?” She began to scream.

“Did I say that loud?” I thought.

“Yes you did. You are mad. Do you understand? You are mad” she screamed moving her hands in the air like a cartoon.

“Relax!” I began but she again cut me off “No! First say it".

I made a confused expression to what she was talking.

“Say I am mad” she banged her hand on her thigh

"Okay! You are mad now don't do that” I said as I removed her hand from from her thigh saving her from bruising herself. I do have an Idea what that hands of her could do by witnessing today’s match.

“No! No! Say you are mad" she spoke irritated.

“Yeah! That only I said just now" I spoke as I watched her face growing red with anger.

“No! No! No! Don't you understand? Say I" she pointed her finger towards me “means You! Dylan is mad” she was stressing herself even more and now I was beginning to feel worried about her listening to her fasten heartbeats.

"Okay! Okay fine! I am mad. Happy?” I spoke as I kept the ice pack back on the table and sat in front of her on the sofa.

“Finally! Yes!" She muttered to herself.

“Now tell me What are you doing here?” again back to questioning.

"You know I used to like it when you spoke less earlier” I told her and watched as she grew silent. “Fine! I won't ask you anything” she exclaimed as she got up from the sofa and began to walk towards her room.

“You stupid human! See what you did. You made her angry again” my wolf yelled at me.

“Aderyn listen!” I ran to her and stood in front of her blocking her from going anywhere.

"Arrgh! Dylan what are you doing? Get off my way” she exclaimed as she tried to walk past me but was unable to as I blocked her way again.

"What?" She snapped.

"Okay I am sorry I didn't mean that. I mean I like it when you talk” I tried to explain.

"Dyla-" she began I stopped her " Listen to me Aderyn I will tell you everything tomorrow. I promise. I think you should rest now. You utilised too much of energy today and you need to relax a little now okay?"

She sighed and nodded speaking lowly “okay”.

"So now go and sleep. And as this is your house I wanted to ask can I stay here?” I asked genuinely. “Will you go away if I say no?” She asked to which I shook my head negative.

"Exactly! See? Why are you even asking? Stay wherever you want" she said as she walked past me towards the stairs.

“But I want answers tomorrow and I mean it” she said as she looked back at me sternly.

“And don't think that I forgive you for the last time” she said and turned around walking out of my sight.

“I know” I mumbled as I took the trophy that she won and walked towards the guest room.

Seeing that trophy I felt proud of my mate. It made me see the real color of life. This is life. If you want to survive then you need to keep fighting and that is what Aderyn did. But now I think this is probably her last match which she fought for her living. I knew that she took part in the first place, only for living not for any enjoyment.

I will damned if I let her fight like those match again risking her life for money. As much as she loved being independent in this matter, she has to learn being dependent now. Learn to be depended on her mate who is me.

She doesn’t need to do all this now.

I am there to take care of her. That is why I let her fight today so that it would engrave on her mind that she doesn’t need to fight again for survival. It will be one of her good memory where she found herself. I wanted to give her some good memories which will not actually erase all those past sufferings but at least give her some good memories which she will remember till her end.

“You are thinking too much Dylan. Now sleep! You need energy to answer all her questions tomorrow” I spoke to myself as I changed into my shorts and t-shirt and lied down on the bed and tried to sleep.

“What a day!” I thought as I sighed and drifted to sleep.
