Chapter 9

Olivia rolled dough into balls as tears ran down her face. The balls of chocolate were supposed to be something new and exciting for a birthday party. She pushed one chunk into the muffin pan. Sure, she was supposed to be creating a giggling cupcake of sorts. She’d mixed all the right herbs and pounds of chocolate together, said all the right things and still every time she popped one into her mouth all she did was cry harder.

It was her luck she’d fall for a tall, dark and handsome man who she finally thought was her choice just to find out it’s what fate wanted. She hated magic. She hated the world and all its stupid rules. She wanted her own choices.

A tiny voice within her whispered. "Is it really so bad?"

She sniffled. The idea of waking up next to him every morning eased the suffering in her soul. But was it her that wanted it or the magic? She tried to think back passed the last day to when they'd first met. How he'd captivated her from the start. That had all been lust though. Right?

The camera at the back-door flickered on, alerting Olivia someone was there. She smiled through the tears as she saw a familiar figure. Promptly, she replaced the smile with a frown.

He’d hurt her. But damn it if she didn’t want to run to him. Again though, was that her? Or was that his thought? Was that the mating?

“Oh, crap.” The icing in her hands dripped to the counter.

What the? First snow, now this?

Olivia stopped to assess herself. Her body boiling hot, the icing in her hand melting out. Glancing at the screen again she crossed her legs at the instant attraction to him. No, she was pissed.

Turning away she focused on getting the dripping pastry bag to the sink. Holding her hand under the tip as it practically created a river of sugary water, curiosity gnawed at her.

No. I won't give in.

“There. That’s better.” She rolled her head side to side. Calm yourself. Using the heel of her hand, she tried to wipe the tears away.

Olivia shook out her arms and hands. Alright, I can do this. I can be around him.

No. He should suffer.

Then she peeked at the screen again. His head hung low, his stance stressed and agitated. He hurt. She knew he genuinely suffered too.

Deflating her lungs on one long breath, her thoughts shifted past anger. If it hurt this much to be away from him, she might have to give in. But only if she got something out of this.

Chewing the inside of her cheek, she glanced at the monitor again and felt an ache deep down in her soul as his massive frame paced back and forth. Flexing her fingers against a tingle of magic, she couldn’t look away from him. She wanted to hold him and make the pain go away. The desire to kiss away the sadness almost to strong to ignore. .

He’d betrayed her. She had to remember.
