Mates of a Werewolf Hunter
Chapter 22 No Touches

Valentine Winters P.O.V

I felt like I was having some kind of trauma; upheaval.

I could hear my own heart beat pumping fast.

It felt like my heart was beating out of my chest.

I didn’t want him anywhere near me.

He seemed puzzled; perplexed.

Not understanding, he opened and closed his mouth trying to say something and only came up with one word.

Lucifer Argent P.O.V

“What ?” I stood there astonished.

She didn’t want me anywhere around her ?

For truth be told, I just ordered them to put her in the cage to scare her. I didn’t know that the filthy mongrel could get loose.

It took a while for me to register what I had done and I ran out of the room bringing a gun along with me.

I didn’t know how but I heard her screams, calling me for help in my head.

I felt the pain she’s been through and it was excruciatingly painful. Once I got there, I just took out my gun and shot it straight into it’s head.

I left the room and went straight into the woods for some fresh air and for me to think this through.

Her voice kept ringing in my ear when I asked her what was she scared of as she answered that she was scared of;

Me.

Maybe she’s just in a short moment of sudden fear ? She just got battered by that filthy creature.

I messed up

Or

She’s messed up ?

i slid down the wall and just sat on the cold tiles.

I could’ve died in that cage and I should have.

Doesn’t he even care about me for a little bit ?

I remembered when he said that he doesn’t even care if I died in a hole.

My eyes turned watery but I just held it in blinking a few times.

I sighed and looked down.

Seeing that I was wearing a new set of clothes. It should be his as it smells just like him.

The door opened and my heart rate accelerated immediately.

I looked up to see Lucifer with a plate of food.

My stomach growled silently and my mouth watered at the sight and smell of food but fear surged through me when I saw him.

He placed it down on the bed and kept a glass of water on the table.

He sat down and started eating his food.

Then his eyes laid on me.

“Want some ?” He asked but I just shook my head no. No matter how hungry I am, I never take food from people even my own family.

“You sure ?” He assured.

I nodded.

How can he act like nothing happened ?

I frowned.

Lucifer Argent P.O.V

It’s been three weeks.

Three fucking weeks.

I gave her everything;

Food.

Shower.

Clothes.

My clothes to be precise.

The thing inside my head which I have recently known as my wolf had become restless.

He feels so agitated that she’s not even letting us touch her.

Even I was getting infuriated.

I was even being a little gentle towards her.

What more does she want from me ?

What does she want me to say ?

Valentine Winters P.O.V

I don’t think there would ever be a happy ending or a happily ever after in this story. I lost count of days since I’ve been here.

All of a sudden, he’s a little amiable to me but I’ll never plunge into that trap again.

Every time I move away from him, I could sense annoyance radiating from him. He scowls and glares at me for increasing the space and distance between us every time.

What does he want me to do ?

Snuggle and cuddle with him ?

Suddenly the door opened and in came Lucifer with a plate of food.

He placed it in front of me and sat down on the tiles too.

Wondering why he did that but I didn’t dare ask. I’ve also reduced my speaking with him. Every time I do, I’ll start to stutter.

I hate that.

“Eat.” He stated pushing the plate towards me.

“T-thanks.” I whispered.

I tried eating in small bites but my trepidation and nervousness intensify as I felt him just staring at me, burning a hole on my head.

I didn’t sat anything. What can I say ?

Once I finished, he placed the plate on the table.

He walked back towards me. What is he trying to do ?

He squat and leaned down to my level.

My heart beat accelerated instantly.

I tried to push my self further into the wall.

He had one of the angry-scowl face.

“You don’t want me to touch you, do you ?” He enquired.

My whole frame frame began to tremble as I nodded.

He raised one of his hands up towards my cheek unhurriedly, nearly touching it.

I closed my eyes tightly.

“Why ?” He questioned.

I didn’t know what to say. The only word that came out of my mouth was.

“I-I’m S-sorry.” I apologised. What was I apologising for ?

“No.” He growled.
