RED ( Twisted Forbidden Tales) Book Two

Heat

Bo got some serious eye messages from me during dinner. This guy looked and felt familiar to me, but Bo was avoiding my gestures in order to confirm. After the disappearance of the Night Wolves. A lot of children were left without their parents. Bo’s mom, Audrey, and a few other wives whose husbands also disappeared founded Nights Orphanage.

At that time, the Forbidden Spell that was cast had taken root and the Dark Woods began to change. Bo’s mom discovered an old abandoned mansion and made it the base and heart of the Night Orphanage. Many children were saved because of this place, me being one of them.

My family never cared for me unless I could help them. My first ever destiny with medicine started here when my parents dumped me at the orphanage to live. It was here that I met Bo, and later a young boy named Aaron. Bo’s mom took me in after a lengthy scolding of my parents. To pay back her kindness, I helped out at the orphanage as much as I could after my studies.

Bo’s mom was strict on education, and Bo’s brothers were no slackers either. A fateful incident led to Danny’s and Audrey's discovery of my healing ability. This prompted Danny, as I call him Doc, to take me in as his apprentice to cultivate my potential. Bo, Danny, and I ran into an injured young boy one day on a care trip.

His injuries weren’t normal, but I could heal them. This boy's name was Aaron and Bo fell in love with him and his amber eyes at first sight. He was taken in by the orphanage and a close friendship bloomed between the three of us. He stayed there at the orphanage until he was sixteen, then mysteriously disappeared. Some said he died, but it never sat right for me.

This guy's aura was just like that boy's. Everything in me said it was him. Bo dated a few guys but never got close to any of them or clicked with them like she does now. I would leave things as they are and just wait and see. On another note, I was excited to be a part of Walden’s Ambassador mission.

The Red Family had long burned their bridges with me. First, I wanted to help restore Walden’s missing memories. After all, that was what the letters I kept had told me to do. Right now, I couldn’t tell him or Bo my secret or the hidden mission that Queen Snow had called upon me to do. The Reds were hiding something that connected Walden and me. The letters only said so much, but one thing was certain, he needed my assistance.

If that man really was Aaron, then it was no coincidence that he appeared. He definitely received letters like I did, but I wondered what his mission was. Was it Talia’s calling or was it Snow’s? My thoughts would wonder if I thought too much. Aaron would never hurt Bo, which I was sure of.

Walden and I did the cleanup after dinner. Everyone would do their fair share. The suite was two-bedroom accommodation. There was a bathroom inside the room I was in. I would have to share a room with Walden and, for some reason, that excited me more than it should. I left Walden to dry and headed to my room.

Something was wrong with my wolf. I could hear her whimpering in my head. Was she sick? I had to keep control of myself. Maybe I had healed too many people tonight or was finally feeling the effects of overworking. Maybe I feel better after a shower, change, and rest.

Collecting the things I needed, I headed into the bathroom, wondering what it could be. My wolf and I have always been one. We could talk and she could take control sometimes, but as long as I could remember, we just couldn’t shift. I had a hunch, but I couldn’t be for sure, the only way was talking to my wolf in the dream world. It was the safest place where we shared our secrets.

The shower and change made me feel a bit better, but I was slightly warm and a bit lethargic, which is so unlike me. I barely made it to bed as I moved on autopilot. My wolf was helping me. More than likely she knew what this was. I moaned out loud once my skin came in contact with the bed. Why was my skin so sensitive? I gasped as it hit me. This was a sign of heat. What was I going to do?

I had been spared from this experience of not being able to shift. Now with everything going on, why are we having symptoms now? Bo, couldn’t help me at the moment. If the sounds I heard while in the shower were any indication, she was in fact happily busy.

Walden couldn’t see me like this, and at the same time, I really wanted him too. My pajamas were very constricting at the moment, even though they were simple shorts and a top. There was no need for light inside the room as most of it came from the moonlight through the curtain of the floor-to-ceiling window. The curtains were sheer but you could see out but not in. I hadn’t decided what I wanted to do yet before Walden had already entered the room and closed the door.

He took a big whiff of the air around us and growled. I knew my scent had hit him. I was embarrassed to have my arousal on full display, but when Walden turned around I couldn’t help myself. He had the most beautiful wolf eyes I’d ever seen as they glowed in the night, their sight straight at me.

My pants became heavier as we looked at each other. My wolf was fighting for control. She was begging me to let her do that but I was scared. I had never been with anyone before. At my age would he laugh at me? To me, s*x was sacred and should be between mates, but I felt a warm liquid pool from my nether region heightening the scent in the room. The most seductive growl came from him as he walked forward to me on the bed and I lost it as his aura pulled me in.
