Chapter 57: Hold Me

Adrik inhaled and exhaled, then glanced down at his belly. It was indeed healing at a fast pace. Well, that's what you get for having the blood of an Alpha running through your veins. You would heal faster no matter what wound it was. He would have healed pretty much faster if it weren't for the fact that this was a very deep wound and at three different parts.

He stood up from the couch and strolled to the elevator, which took him to the 2nd floor. He walked out when the door opened and ambled to his room.

The moment he pushed the door open, his body stilled as his eyes fell on Leia, who was gazing out to the horizon, draining of colors as though the darkness could take over the world.

She unfolded her arms and took a deep breath, which he could feel was quite pessimistic. His eyes fluttered at how deeply she was thinking, to the extent of not even noticing him open the door. What is she thinking about?

He slowly walked in, shutting the door behind him, and Leia turned around, startled. Her pitch-black pupils gazed at him, and they unknowingly fell on the bloody bandage on his belly. She immediately panicked within herself and rushed up to him. "What happened to you?" Her hands trembled as they touched the bloody bandage and her lashes shivered as tears began to well up in her eyes. Again, why is she crying? Is it because he's hurt?

She lifted her eyes to glance at his face, and her heart ached when she saw the stern look on his face. "Are you okay?" She asked and stared into his green eyes, which she adored a lot. It was the one thing about him that captivated her so much.

Without saying anything to her, Adrik shifted her out of the way with one hand and ambled to the cabinet in the bathroom to grab the first aid box. He picked the bandage inside of it and dressed his wound by himself.

Leia's hands clenched as she stood and watched him. What else does he want her to do? She had said sorry many times, but he didn't even reply! Her heart ached within her and the tears in her eyes threatened to fall. Yes, this was her fault! She made a mistake back then for ditching him in the middle of breakfast as though he didn't mean anything to her, but it wasn't like that. She didn't mean it that way. She just wished he would at least hear her out...at least accept her apology, because she won't try to justify her actions or give any excuses.

A deep breath escaped Leia's nose and she raised her visions to stare at Adrik's bareback which was covered in tattoos and looked very masculine. She glanced at his hair, which was tied up messily, and she suddenly found him seductive. What in the world is she thinking?! She immediately shook her head and turned around to hide her face, which was all flushed pink. What the fuck is going on with her these days? Why is she getting all these weird feelings she has never felt before? Crying was something she hardly did, but these past few days, she couldn't count how many times tears had left her eyes.

Her body suddenly shuddered when she felt him behind her and she turned around to see him dressed up in a white shirt and white boxers instead of a robe. Her eyes trailed to his bare chest, which had tattoos on it, then down to his stomach, which had sexy abs on it, and something fluttered in her stomach. 

"Ehem." A low clearing of the throat from Adrik caused her to avert her gaze, and she suddenly felt like slapping her stupid cheek, which was glowing a light shade of pink. She chuckled awkwardly and raised her eyes to gaze at his expressionless face. "Um..."

Adrik lifted his hand and pointed his finger at his hair, which was messily banded. She nodded as realization hit her, and smiled at him.

He strolled to the chair and sat down, then silently watched her apply some oil to his hair. "I am sorry." Leia began and combed his hair with her fingers. "Please forgive me and stop treating me so coldly." She rose her eyes to glance at him, and they blinked when she saw no expression on his face.

"Pl-" She parted her lips to continue, but he abruptly stood up from the chair and walked to the bed. He got in and covered himself with the sheet.

Leia's face became complicated, and a deep breath escaped her lips. She dropped the brushes on the table and ambled to the bed, then got in and covered herself with the blanket.

Different questions began to whirl in her mind, and a low groan escaped her mouth. She turned to lie on her back and glanced at Adrik, who was lying with his back facing her, and she suddenly felt empty within her.

He disapproves of holding her to sleep anymore as he used to, and she can't help but admit that she misses it so much. His's body was always warm and would help her relax and sleep comfortably.

Leia's mouth twisted up in contemplation, and she suddenly reached out her hand to touch him. However, as though changing her mind, she retracted her hand. 

A deep breath fled her nose and she turned on her side to sleep, but again she felt really empty and it was making it hard for her to sleep.

She bit her lower lip and turned to stare at Adrik's manly back as nervousness took over her. But as though making up her mind, she reached out her hand and gently wrapped it around him. 

Adrik's eyes opened and he proceeded to turn around, but her next action made him halt. Not only did she wrap her arms around him, but she moved closer and hugged him more tightly. His brow creased, and he turned around to face her. His eyes fell on her face, which had a downcast expression on it and they fluttered. He parted his lip as though about to say something, but Leia shook her head at him and moved closer to him.

"Adrik, please hold me.." Adrik's eyes dilated a little at her word, and he gazed intently at her face.
