"I thought heaven can't help me now.

Nothing lasts forever, but this is gonna take me down

He's so tall and handsome as hell

He's so bad but he does it so well

Ican see the end as it begins."

"What kind of a fucked up person are you? Ryder doesn't know we aren't mates! He won't understand that I just did it because I was in heat and you are my mate. It was my body speaking, not me."

Chance's triumphant look faltered and he looked at me with an icy expression.

"Your body speaking and not you? Are you telling me you regret whatever happened between us yesterday?"

His blunt question took me off guard. I opened my mouth and closed it. Trying to form a reasonable sentence. Should I tell him the truth?

I took a deep breath and nodded my head confidently. "Obviously I regret it. Infact... I am glad you stopped. I am we didn't end up mating, because I would have regretted a lot more today morning."

Chance growled at my rawness and he pinned me against the table by placing both his arms on my either sides.

His eyes turned black telling me his wolf was trying to take control. He was filled with anger and his jaw ticked in fury.

"Oh really?" He gritted out. "You regret it, huh?"

I nodded. My eyes challenging him. I was doing this deliberately. I wanted a reaction out of him. It gave me some sort of sadistic joy in knowing I could affect him like that.

"So you are telling me that if I do this." He leaned in, and brushed his lips against mine. "You will stop me?"

I gasped and my heart started thudding fast when I felt his lips against mine. Even though he applied barely any pressure, and his lips just touched mine, I could feel million firework burn behind my eyes.

My whole body reacted to my mate and tingles rose under my skin.

My eyes closed on their own accord and I leaned in to his touch. I felt his smirk and he placed a hand on my cheek, angling our faces.

I stood on my tiptoes, pressing our lips closer, but he chuckled, pulling away. I almost whined at him for pulling away but his lips moved to my neck and I bit back a sigh of pleasure.

His other arm wrapped around my lower waist and he pulled me flush against his body.

I was so close to him that I felt every dip, ever curve of his body. I felt his muscles and v-line. Reminding me of how I saw him shirtless last night.

His lips worked on my neck as he left wet, open mouthed kisses up to my jaw and sucked on it.

I had bite my lip to stop myself from moaning. His tongue licked me all the way to my collarbone and he nibbled on the hickey he gave me yesterday.

It was right were his mark will lie. Right where my sweet spot was.

I threw my head back and moaned, "Chance."

One of my hands went to clench on to his shoulder, while the other explored his back through his shirt. His muscles tensed everywhere I touched and me and my wolf were extremely happy that we could get that reaction out of him.

"Hmmm," he growled against my neck. "I love it when you saw my name."

His hands slipped inside my shirt and he caressed my skin softly making another moan escape my lips.

Not being able to take it anymore, I pulled his head up by his neck, got on my tiptoes and placed my lips on his.

He groaned lowly in approval and pressed our lips in a passionate kiss.

It was just like yesterday. My body burned in need, I saw sparks behind my eyelids, my wolf howled inside me in happiness and I felt her more than I ever did before.

It was like she was there.

I angled my face and pressed closer to his body such that my burning core touched his and he growled.

"Gosh, you're driving me crazy." He groaned, pulling away. He looked at me directly in the eye and my cheeks burned at the intense look he was giving me.

"W-What are you looking at?" I whispered.

His thumb caressed my burning cheeks and leaned down to peck my lips. "You."

"Oh." I murmured shyly, looking down, trying to avoid his gaze.

He wasn't having any of it though. He placed his fingers under my chin and lifted my head up. I looked into his eyes and he pressed his forehead against mine.

"How do you manage to do it?" He whispered, his thumb absent mindedly drew circles on my waist- driving me crazy.

"Do what?" I felt breathless. Like I just ran a marathon- when I barely moved from my place.

That's what Chance made me feel like. Breathlessly and out of control.

When I am with him- it's like my body has a mind of its own. My brain loses power and my heart leads it way. He makes me feel so alive in just one moment and then the other moment, he kills me with his words.

"You are fucking adorable, Oli." He growled, tightening his hold on my waist just a bit. "One moment you are all seductive- pressing your body against mine- driving me to the edge of pleasure. And then the other, you are acting all shy, hiding your face from me."

"You are driving me crazy baby," he whispered. "How do I resist when I want you so bad?"

"Then don't!" I told him, mustering the courage to say what I had been wanting to say since so long- since my birthday.

"Don't resist. You don't have to. We are mates, Chance. We are supposed to stay together. We are supposed to love each other, hug each other, fight for each other, fight with each other and make up with more kisses and hugs. We are not supposed to be running away and hurting one another. We are not supposed to resist this mate bond."

I brought my thumb to his lips and caressed his bottom lip, making him take a deep breathe.

"Why can't we just stay like normal mates do?" I whispered sadly. "Why can't we stop hurting each other?"

He just stared at me. His eyes looking into mine, and he had a neutral expression on his face.

Time passed. And just went I thought he's gonna laugh at my face and reject me again, he leaned forward and crashed his lips over mine.

My lips curled into a smile even through the kiss and I kissed him back, letting my lips move in sync with his. Our lips danced together. Pulling, tugging, teasing each other- till I was a moaning mess.

This kiss was different from others. It was so much more passionate. I felt I was on cloud 9.

He look my bottom lip between his teeth and bit it making me groan. He took the opportunity and slid his tongue inside my mouth, exploring me.

He moaned as his taste exploded in my mouth and tongues fought for dominance.

The smile never left my lips and I felt like he was accepting me. This is the best I have felt in a while.

Hell. This is the best I have felt my entire life.

"Say it." He said, pulling away.

I looked at him in confusion and he growled possessively.

"Say that you are mine. Say that you don't regret last night. Say it. I want to hear those words from you." He said, nibbling on my ear lobe and I bit my lip to stifle a moan.

"I-I..." I stuttered, not able to form words.

He pulled back and looked at with an encouraging, intense look.

I took a deep breath. Compose yourself, Oli...

"Okay I'll say it." I said, finding courage.

He beamed at me and his lips stretched in a big grin.

I gasped when I realized this is the first time I had seen him smile like that.

Hell! It was the first time I had seen him smile at all! He was always just smirking. For the first time he smiled and I tried to not let my insides melt at how adorable he was.

His pearly white teeth showed and dimples appeared on both of his cheeks. His eyes crinkled and light up with a spark in them.

Gosh. He's so gorgeous.

I was busy gawking at my mate when he snapped me out of my trance by waving his hands in front of my face.

"Oli?" He said, frowning and I shook my head to clear my thoughts.

I cleared my throat. "I'll say it but at one condition."

He gave me a perplexed look and I took it as a cue to continue.

"You have to tell me who started these rumors in school. Saying that we slept together last night. I know you know what it is."

My eyes looked at him questioningly as I watched his entire expression fall.
