The Rebel
Chapter 61

He whispered something in her ear, which instantly relaxed her. His nose touched her chin as his breath brushed her neck.

“Logan”

She cried and he rubbed her arms. He was trying to keep them warm. Her body was entirely in his embrace.

” It’s cold. You should have brought a coat. »

He declared as he took off his own jacket and wrapped it around her. She smiled at this gesture.

However, she crumpled the piece of paper to make it shredded in her hands.

” I did not think. »

He simply uttered a “hmmm” in response. He turned her around to face him.

Then, putting the letter back in her pocket, she smiled at him.

Besides, he didn’t need to know what his mother had done to his.

So she will make sure that he never learns the truth.

King Logan in front of her, that’s all she needed.

And nothing else.

After pulling the zipper of his jacket up to his neck, he pulled her towards him.

Her beautiful gray eyes stared into the redness of her brown eyes.

“Were you still crying?” »

“No… Just… No nothing… It’s nothing. »

He wasn’t convinced. Holding her chin in his fingers, he lifted her head.

His breath brushed his lips.

“How many times do I have to tell you not to lie to me, Vera? »

She avoided looking at him, trying to hide her tears when he pressed his forehead against hers.

“Do you miss them?” »

“I just have memories. »

She replied and he closed his eyes. At the same time, one of his hands slipped behind her neck and the other rested on her waist.

Her scent overwhelmed him.

“They must be so proud of you, my lioness. »

And that’s when she looked down at her hands, doubtful.

” Really ? I just wish they were there. »

Then, he placed a little k**s on her forehead.

Afterwards, he moved down to k**s her little nose and finally, he stopped near her lips.

“They’re here, Vera”

He stated and she froze, her hand holding her wrist to place his palm against her heart.

“In your heart, forever. »

A tear fell from his eye and he hugged her tightly this time.

He took her completely in his arms while she felt so broken.

Her hands shook a little, her grip on his waist loosened, as she held them for him.

She placed them all around her.

” Are you doing well ? » …

She asked him and in return he rested his head on her shoulder.

He was breathing heavily.

“I don’t deserve you, Vera. You are too good for me. »

He stated as his grip on her loosened.

“I… am… just a weak human now… I won’t be able to protect you… I won’t be able to save you… You deserve someone better, Vera. » …

She felt a dampness on the back of her neck and she held her breathing for a second.

Holding his face between her palms, she made him look up.

“Hey. » …

She said, staring into those devastated eyes that hid her pain.

He still had trouble accepting himself, she could see it.

A powerful Lycan like him had lost his greatest power that night, he had lost his wolf.

Therefore, she could understand how he must feel.

“I just want you, Logan. Your eyes looking at me, your words supporting me… Your touch lingering on me and your lips…”

She said this as she traced his lips with her finger.

” K**s Me. »

He tried to break her hold, when she stared at him defiantly.

“I just want you, Logan. Whole.

And nothing more. »

They looked into each other’s eyes, he couldn’t understand how he had been so lucky.

He couldn’t bear to see that look.

Lowering his gaze, he stared at his trembling hands which had burn marks on them.

“It’s reality now, Vera…I’m useless now…These hands…what good are they if they can’t protect you?” »

She held his hands in hers. She lifted them upwards.

She closed her eyes and rested her knuckles on them.

On the other hand, he tried to withdraw, but she persisted.

“Those hands…They did wonders…Logan. »

His eyes widened and he no longer put up any resistance.

She placed her lips on his hands to k**s them.

She didn’t stop there, she went back to his arm where there were only burn marks.

“They brought me back to life…”

She kissed them again, a tear from her eye crashing onto her forearm.

“They made my dead heart beat again. »

Placing another k**s on the other hand, she continued.

“They… To me, they represent my God, Logan… My heaven… The very reason I’m here alive… The reason I breathe this air.

And you’re asking me to let go of them? »

His eyes were vulnerable, watery. Indeed, he couldn’t speak, too overwhelmed by the emotions in his heart.

“I…No…I…”

He stuttered, and she placed her finger on his lips. She didn’t want him to say another word.

“Shh…

Now listen carefully, King Alpha Logan. »

Moving closer to him and grabbing his collar, she pulled him towards her.

The determination in his eyes made him fear the ferocity of his cubs.

“I, Queen Vera, swear on my life that I will stay with you until my last breath.

I will always stand by the man who taught me how to love in this life. »

Moving closer so that her breath brushed his lips, she spoke with a fearless and rebellious look.

“I swear to stay by your side. »

“My dear companion. »

He couldn’t help the smile that appeared on his lips, his determination made him melt today.

He placed his hand on her waist to best pull her body against him.

He looked down to watch the devil dance in those innocent brown eyes and he whispered.

“Permission granted…” …

.

.

.

“My queen”

And that’s when he pressed his lips to hers, sealing their bond for eternity.
