Chapter 284: The Test Kit

"god I missed you," he said breathlessly with an irresistible smile on his lips and I just couldn’t take my eyes off him for I was hypnotized by the look he gave me with the emotions swirling in those hazels of his and it made it lighten, making me see the color gold swimming within them like a wave and I felt myself getting drawn in like a moth to the flame.

I smiled at his words because I was speechless right now and I just wanna look at him as long as I could, for I missed his features and I wanted to imprint them right now in my head.

He smiled back at me as he gently stroked my cheek with his thumb and it got a fresh shiver taking over my body like a storm and my stomach filling with butterflies and the sudden fast pounding of my heart, just one touch, one kiss and I’m already feeling the storm of emotions exploding my body, I was unable to yield it for my body was having a hard time withstanding it, only Dace has the power to do this to my body and still want me craving something I can’t handle.

"Did you miss me baby girl?" he mused.

"Yes," I said, placing my hand on his against my cheek.

"Show me," he said in a low husky tone that caused more chills to invade my body. I gripped his hand harder because I went on my tip toes and kissed him softly allowing my lips to gently rub against his. He took the initiative too as he kissed me back, letting it roam slow and passionately. I don’t want it to end at all, my body was fully his and his mark on me was pulsing like crazy, but I had to collect myself.

"Dace" I pulled, placing my hand on his chest to create a little space. I knew if this continued it wouldn’t just be an innocent kiss, because the ache between my legs was getting unbearable, almost like it was pulsing for him and he knew it. Just like he said, our contact and simple touch were fuels to our secret desires. We both ignite our passion and we won’t stop until we quench it.

"Emilia," I said in a worried tone.

"She’s fine, actually..."

"What?"

He nudged his head and I turned in the direction of it. The window?

"Wait, she’s out there?"

He nodded at my words as he let me go and I knew it was a signal for me to go there and so I parted my curtains and I looked down, finding Emilia just standing there, with her arms folded.

"Finally you’re out, I thought you guys would make out for hours before I’m finally attended to"

"Emilia"

"Hey," she said with a smile.

"I..." I bit my bottom lip. "I’m sorry"

"No Emma"

I brought my leveled gaze back to hers, a smile still remained on her lips but her eyes were sad. "I’m the one who should be sorry, I said it was all your fault when it wasn’t, I only said that out of anger"

"Maybe it is my fault"

"Don’t take my words to heart Emma, okay? I understand Grayson wanted you to keep it for a reason, and I understand his decisions I guess we’re not that close enough for us to share our deepest secrets, which means I have a lot of work to do"

I opened my mouth to speak but the words didn’t come off, I didn’t know what to say right now, the hurt in her tone was just so evident I wasn’t so sure any words I say would matter. She was still drowning in pain and I knew it.

"Okay I better blur away before your aunt or your mom finds me here and I blow your cover," she said giving me a chanting smile but this time she seemed happy and I smiled too.

"Later, witch girl" she winked before turning to leave.

"Emilia" I stopped her before she blurred before my eyes. But she didn’t turn, she just stood there.

I didn’t know if what I’m about to say would help but I just hope I will be able to secure a light of hope within her so that she doesn’t give up or it would all be for waste, for I knew and believed that Grayson just needs time.

"Grayson is slow-witted sometimes when it comes to feelings..." I began as I gripped the window tightly. "...but that doesn’t mean he doesn’t care, he cares for you Emilia, I know that"

She faces me with a smile. "Thank you, Emma," she says before pivoting and blurring away.

I sighed watching the spot she once stood before closing the curtains and turning to Dace who stood at the same spot with his hands in his pocket jeans.

"Will she be okay?"

"She’s strong, she will be"

"She won’t reject him because of the pain will she?"

"She’s strong enough to not do that and stubborn"

I smiled.

Dace’s eyes leveled to the bag on my bed, due to the way I dropped it some of the contents were out. He raised an eyebrow before tilting his head to the side.

"That is a lot of snacks" he mused.

"Um well" I got nervous now, and I mentally prayed he wouldn’t touch it and just drift his attention back to me.

And he just had to reach for it.

"Dace wait!"

It was too late already, the rest came off, and the hidden gem within it too, and I covered my mouth and stayed still.

Dace’s eyes fell on it and he narrowed his eyes before grabbing the box labeled ’Pregnancy Test Strips’.

There was a pause and for the first time mostly to me, Dace’s features ran pale, and he was in... shook? confusion? I can’t tell which because his face was paper white right now like a damn ghost

He brought his orbs to me and they were wide. "A-Are you-"

"Not yet!" I sighed. "I-I mean I don’t know, but I think I am" I added in a whisper.

He dropped the kit back on the bed and walked to me grabbing my waist.

"Were you planning not to tell me?" he sounded hurt now. "I told you I will take responsibility no matter what"

"I had to be sure first, I had a dream and I think I might be and I have been trying to reach your phone and it didn’t go through, why would you have a phone when you don’t use it? I know you have a mind link but I can’t do that, I’m not a werelion and..." I sighed. "I’m sorry I’m saying too much I can’t stop I’m just super nervous and maybe scared and-"

"Hey hey," he calmed me as cupped my cheek.

"Dace" I began trembling. "I don’t think this is the right time for this, my mom, even her don’t accept you, I was threatened today and-"

"Threatened?!" he growled and his eyes were highlighted.

Oops! Maybe I shouldn’t have said that stupid me!

"Who threatened you Emma, who?!"

"N-No one did that was just a wrong choice of words what I’m trying to say is, I was just warned but please this is not..." I exhaled. "Not..." I did again and he hugged me tightly.

"I’m just scared" I mumbled, burying my face in his chest.

"I’m right here okay? There’s no need to be scared" he pulled so that he would wipe my tears away. "I’m right here, and I’m not going anywhere, if it turns out that you’re pregnant I promise you no one will part us, you hear me?"

I nodded, gripping him tightly like my life depended on it. He let me go and I walked to the bed and grabbed the box, gripping it tightly before facing him. I said nothing as I walked to my bathroom and shut the door and leaned on it, trying to calm my breathing.

I was beyond nervous right now, and I tried to breathe so that I wouldn’t die from a speeding heartbeat. I rushed and sat on the toilet gripping the box.

"You have to do this" I chanted to myself and I was shaking. I checked my flow calendar yesterday, I was a day late for my period which only makes what I’m about to do more true as well as my dream, I mean what else would it mean? I was dying to find out and to know what is using this.

I was scared shitless right now to even try but I knew I needed to be certain but that didn’t stop the storm in my head. Me and Dace’s relationship was never accepted. I wasn’t so sure a baby would be welcomed.

Oh, my fucking shit!

I was panicking again as I ripped the box open but suddenly I felt a tight squeeze at my lower abdomen.
