Chapter 30: Shifted

Nicholas’s POV

She really looks tired, I had initially thought she had passed out cold, from seeing me, but Steve says, she’s been working double shifts, her own and a colleague’s own, I stared down at her as she sleeps peacefully on a spare bed, in Steve’s own office, I checked my watch again, it’s been two hours since she passed out, I had offered to stay with her and Steve had gone home, to see his son, he had teased me about her being my mate and we had laughed at the prospect of me ever liking girls, or a human ever becoming my mate, but seriously I felt disturbed, I’ve developed a liking for her, I had turned in my bed last night, unable to sleep, and thinking of her bright green eyes, I had later gone riding My lady, but it hadn’t helped, is she truly my mate?, I had developed hatred for women since Early childhood, instead, I had fallen in love with cars, but since seeing her last night I had been seriously thinking about the prospect of her being my mate, it won’t be such a bad idea after all……

I felt movement on the bed behind me,

I glanced at the bed and saw her, trying to get up.

“Hey you’re awake?.” I asked, moving to stand beside her and helping her up.This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.

“Thank you” She said curtly

“You don’t have to be so mean, earlier you’d fallen into my arms with no argument……”

“I fainted?” She asked sounding like, she was going to faint again. I moved closer to her.

“Yeah…..” I replied trying to be nice, well if she’s really my mate, I better start all over again, and start by being nice.

“How long?” She asked desperately, is she perhaps going to meet someone. I hope not.

“Two hours and……”

“Oh shit” She swore, I’ve honestly only met few ladies who swears. She started looking around for her things, she found her bag and sandals, she wore them quickly, she swung the bag over her shoulders.

“Why are you in a hurry?” I asked

“I don’t need to answer your questions, I only answer to doctor Walker, where Doctor Walker?” She asked suddenly.

“Oh, you won’t answer my questions, but I have to answer yours?” I asked folding my arms.

“Look, I have to go home and i still have to get to work and I don’t have time for this… I …….” She stuttered

“Water?” I asked, unfolding my arms

“No, thanks” She said

“Steve has gone home, and why did you work two shifts?, You could have easily asked for help…. ”

“I owe you no explanation, please move out of my way, I have important things to do…” She said, arms crossed.

“OK, look why don’t I drop you home?,….”

“Thanks but No” She said coldly.

“Steve orders” I said raising my palms, though I lied, it worked.

“Fine then” She said, glaring at me.

************

I find her to be quite different, while other girls would screech at the speed with which I was driving the car, she had her hands outside the window, the wind blowing her golden hair, while she hummed along with the song playing on the radio, the music station I flipped the radio to were playing, sit still look pretty, by Daya, it said something about her being a queen and not Needing a King, I made an attempt at conversation, it didn’t work.

“Uhn what’s your real name?, I mean Mira’s cool but I’d like to know your real name….” I said, but she ignored me.

“OK then, I’ll stick with Mira, it sounds sweet.”

Then I focused on driving her home, I had taken the county road, it makes it longer but safer, It was free of other vehicles and the prospect of an accident was low, At the rate of my speed breaking necking, it was safer…… but longer, but she doesn’t seem to mind anyways.

“Uhm, Mira…..”

“Look, if you’d just please keep to yourself and stop talking to me” She said glaring at me.

“Well, you said fifth Avenue, and I just wanted to tell you, we’re here” I said amused, as her fire spitting look changed.

Connor’s POV

Ava had turned in the middle of no where, I was very afraid, I knew the pain would be excruciating, there was no one to help, her bones had snapped, and they had reshaped, I had the good sense to strip her, when her bones were snapping, thereby saving her clothes, she had gone through so much agony, I felt like I would die on the spot, just before she shifted, I had seen her mate mark, it had shone so brightly that I thought I would really go blind, while we had made love, I saw that her Mate mark had formed, it was strange, it was beautiful, the markings of the Goddess and admist the all the markings, something was written, I had told Ava, she had shifted her hair so I could have a better look, The single word, ‘Logan’ Had been written there, I felt like I was suffocating, when Ava asked what it was, I had lied to her, I told her, it hadn’t formed completely and I couldn’t see it, Now she stood before me in her wolf form, white as snow, beautiful and gracious, Her eyes…….. Gold, different from their formal color ‘blue’, I thought, she had the moon crescent on her Crown, she stood in the sun, As beautiful as Fuck, we played while she was in her wolf form for 30 minutes, she wanted to feel it for a while longer, but I had said no, the clouds were gathering, she could speak to me directly, like some sort of Mind link, ‘Telepathy’, turning back to human was as well painful.

“Don’t worry, you’d get the hang of things, after one or two trials” I smiled down at her, I dressed her as quickly as I can, I lifted her and sat her atop my stallion, she seemed to weak to ride alone, though she’s an excellent horse woman, but right now……, I jumped behind her and nudged the horse into moving, Ava stared up at me, she indicated the pony,

“She’ll follow, naturally, you don’t have to worry” I smiled and we were flying across the fieds in a neck breaking run, while Ava laid her head against my chest.

*************

“Oh you’re back!” Elora’s Mum, saddie shouted as she came out from around the house.

Elora Opened the car’s door, and closed it behind her.

“Hi mum” She said, hugging and kissing her mum’s Cheek, Nicholas came out of the car, and stood, watching the show of love.

“Hi baby” Saddie said, and looked Nicholas over.

“And you must be?” She asked smiling, already guessing who he might be, her daughter doesn’t take lifts from strangers, especially handsome strangers.

“He’s……” Elora started to say.

“I’m sure the young man can talk.” Saddie said smiling and walking up to Nicholas

“Nicholas Ma’am, Nicholas Donnacha” GE said bowing over hand, and kissing it.

“Oh, you’re the guy my daughter has fallen in love with? ” Saddie said ignoring his last name.

“Mum!” Elora shouted.

“Such a fine name” Saddie said ignoring her daughter.

“Why don’t you come in, and have a cookie?” Saddie asked, Elora went pale

She sounds so nice, unlike her curt daughter, Nicholas would have liked to go in, but he’s been gone from the palace a long time, and he’d really like to go back before the promising rain falls.

“I’d really like to wait ma’am but I’ve got some important stuffs to attend to” He smiled prettily,

“On that note, I’ll go in, see you some other time, and oh don’t worry about the rain, you’ll be home, long before it falls” She smiled and turned, she has a killer shape, Nicholas thought.

“Thank the young man for the lift and don’t forget to apologize and thank him for the other time too” Saddie said to Elora, and touched her arm, before going in, they stood in silence for some seconds, Staring at earth other.

“Thanks for the lift and for the other time and, I’m sorry for being rude” Elora said staring pointedly at him.

“Oh OK Mira, and Mira about the other time….. Steve……” Nicholas was saying.

“My name is Elora not Mira, please leave and I hope we never meet again!” Elora said angrily

“Don’t think because mum……..”

“Oh not to worry Elora…” Nicholas grinned.

“We’ll be seeing more of each other, because ma’am, I think you’re my mate” Nicholas said grinning, much to Elora’s horror.
