FULL NOVELXO Chapter 142
Avery’s pov
I couldn’t help but laugh softly at Xade’s words, wrapping my arms around his neck and rest my head against his shoulder as he carried me out of the room. Despite him clearly looking exhausted, I am surprised at how effortlessly he moved through the darkened hallway to the kitchen.
Cap.
Once in the kitchen, he put on the light, enveloping us in a warm yellow glow, and moved to place me reluctantly on the kitchen Want me to make you anything?”
I raised a brow, a bit warmed that despite him being the one hungry he thought about me first. ” Just make me whatever you’re making for yourself.”
His face flushed and he scratches the back of his head, making me look at him suspiciously. “I’m making a peanut butter sandwich, you can’t have that. You’re carrying my pup, you need something more fulling.”
I narrowed my eyes on his face.” You can’t have that.” I said dryly. ” This will definitely not carve your hunger.”
He groaned, head swinging back a little in an adorable way to show his frustration.” But I want to get back in bed with you already.”
My right brow sleek up into an arch. “Well in that case wolf boy, you better get to cooking.” I joked, making him playfully glare at me for calling him wolf boy.
He faked barked. ” Yes ma’am.”
I giggle and watch him move around the kitchen in such a speed my eyes can’t adjust as quickly. He takes out a few eggs, some veggies, sausages and cheese. I watch him with admiration as he cracked the eggs in a bowl, his eyes flickering over to me every second as if afraid I’d disappear any second now.
“Want any help?” I asked, not wanting to just be there and not at least help him.
No, you sit right there and look pretty,” he points at me and then himself.” Daddy got this,” he winked, making me sputter, my cheeks flaming red.
He smirked and begins to whisk the eggs, later adding the chopped sausages and some vegetables in the bowl. He then moves to the stove, putting on the oven and throwing a frying pan over the fire.
I feel content. After that long tiring painful day, seeing him work in the kitchen to make something for me and him, was all I needed.
He put the eggs in the frying pan and the sizzling sound filled the room along with the aroma. My belly grumbles. “Can I have one of those?” I pointed at the uncooked left out sausage.
Xade looks over at the sausage. ” Want me to heat it up before-
No, I want to eat it just like this please,” I admitted, licking my lips. His brows raised comically however he still passes me the uncooked sausage. I bit into it, moaning.
” Since when do you enjoy raw meat?” he questioned confused while flipping the omelet and adding some cheese. He stares at me intrigued as I gobble down the sausage.
I shrugged.” Since I have been pregnant with your baby,” looking at him with a questioning stare, I asked. “Is it normal?”
Xade paused and looked at me thoughtfully with a tilt of his head before uttering. “That would make sense since the baby has my werewolf gene and is also sharing that gene with you.”
I winced. “I ate three whole raw chickens once.”
Xade chuckle, putting off the stove and slid the omelet onto a plate. He grabbed two forks and gave it to me, sliding the plate closer. “This should fill us both?” he asked tenderly, settling himself between my parted legs, one of his arms swooping around my waist to pull me flush against him.
Or would you rather I take out some raw chicken for you in the freezer?” he joked, making me smack his chest lightly as I pouted. “Don’t tease me about it,” I whined, my heart warming at the sound of his chuckle.
His eyes crinkle at the corners as his smile brightens up his face, those swirls of blue peering at me with so much adoration and warmth I felt it all to my toes. Then his face turned serious, peering at me intensely.
“Thank you for not leaving me.” His voice cracks, emotions running through his eyes like a tornado. The tenderness in his eyes made my eyes tear up.
I reach up and cupped his jaw, brushing my thumb over his jawline. He leans into my touch, sighing in contentment. “I would never dream of it,” I told him truthfully. ” You’re stuck with us forever.”
His eyes lit up. ” Until death do us part?”
I grinned, giggling lightly as I nod.” Until death do us part.”
His brows furrow cutely. “Come to think of it, we’re going to be together even in death. So heads up V, there won’t be any escaping from me ever.
I throw my head back to laugh heartily, happy that our story had now just finally begun and I was ready for this new journey with him. No matter what life throws our way, once I had Xade by my side, I knew it would all be worth it. It always was.
