Chapter 12

Okaaayy. Not exactly the declaration of love she was looking for, but what did Noelle expect? Her Dragon was not the average guy. Her Dragon. Yes. Mine.

The flash of possessiveness caught her off guard. She knew it wasn’t logical, okay, it wasn’t even near the realm of logic, but she loved him. From the second she laid eyes on him, she’d lost all claim to her heart, her soul, heck, every single inch of her body. Sander was it for her. The one.

Sure, it hurt when he told her he was leaving in the morning. Heck. The quiet statement he’d made practically ripped her heart out of her chest. As it was, the wound still gaped open.

She’d wished for someone to love her entire life. Every birthday and Christmas wish, since it was the same day for her, was spent on the same thing. Send me someone of my own, someone to love, who will love me back. A love like mom and dad had.

Well, she’d found it alright. Only to lose it just as quickly. Her body trembled as he stepped nearer to her. She wasn’t sure she could handle being this close and not touching him. Her fingers itched for his skin.

She’d never known desire or pleasure like she’d found in his arms. His beautiful, strong embrace that had taken her to heights she’d never dreamed about. She took a step back, knowing that if he came any closer nothing would stop her form throwing herself at him. Be strong. Don’t make a fool of yourself, Noelle. But was it too late for that?

“I don’t know if it’s Christmas or if it’s you,” Sander said closing in on her, “but I swear on everything I am that what I am about to say I mean with every part of me.”

“Sander, please, you don’t have to do this.”

“Yes, I do,” he smiled at her, his eyes glowing teal in the dark room, he reached out with his good hand and took one of hers, holding it tightly in his warm grip.

“I love you, Noelle,” she swayed as the word reached her ears, but he wasn’t finished, “I truly do love you, and I need you, my sweet little minx. I want you, now, and always.”

“Oh Sander!” She gasped and walked into his embrace, confused when he pulled back and looked into her eyes once more.

“I must know if you can love me, maimed hand and all?”

“Sander, how can you ask me that? Of course, I love you! You are perfect to me,” she cradled his imperfect hand and kissed the digits there, holding it to her chest. She felt him tremble and her heart swelled even more.

“I have a question, love.”

“What question?” Noelle gulped, tears brimming in her big, blue eyes.

“Can I have you?” His whispered plea was more growl than anything.

The words he uttered sent ripples of emotion through her frame. The question echoed in her ears and made her heart pound. Could this really be happening? She gasped and laughed as tears fell from her eyes.
