Worlds Apart

Undeniable Attraction

*Adrian's POV*

Stepping out of the car, I walked toward the jet, the sound of her footsteps trailing just behind me. As I reached the stairs, I turned and extended my hand, watching her for a moment. There was a flash of shock in her eyes before she quickly masked it, her usual guarded expression returning. It was clear she hadn’t expected that—my gesture was unexpected.

She hesitated for a moment before taking my hand. I helped her into the jet, and as she settled in, I noticed her eyes scanning the space, her gaze lingering on the luxurious interior. The soft admiration in her eyes made something stir inside me. My mate, it seemed, loved my jet.

Once we were in the air, I turned my attention to my laptop, diving into work, though my mind wandered to her from time to time. I found myself stealing glances when I could—just watching her, trying to understand this pull I couldn’t seem to escape.

When I finished my work, I looked over again, only to find her asleep, her head resting against the plush seat. For a moment, I considered waking her, but then I realized how exhausted she must be. I decided to carry her to my suite so she could rest properly.

As I lifted her into my arms, she clung to me tightly, murmuring in her sleep, "Stay..." The softness of her voice, combined with the warmth of her body against mine, made my heart skip. My wolf stirred inside me, responding to her like an instinct I couldn’t fight.

I sat down carefully with her head resting on my lap, not wanting to disturb her. The position felt *right*—almost as if it had always been meant to be this way. But at the same time, it felt wrong. How could she be the one? Why her?

I didn’t realize I had said the words aloud until she stirred in her sleep. Her body shifted, and for a brief moment, part of her breast was exposed. Desire flooded me like a tidal wave. My body responded almost painfully, but I fought it, trying to control myself. How could she have this effect on me?

After a moment, I carefully stood up, leaving the room and retreating back to my seat. I tried to focus on work again, desperate to find something to distract myself from the fact that my mate was so close yet still so far away. I had almost given up on finding her, and now that I had, she was *human*. Could she really handle my world?

With a sigh, I returned to my laptop, trying to push aside the thoughts of her. But no matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t shake the feeling that my life had just been irrevocably changed.

Here's an edited version of your scene with a few tweaks for clarity and flow, while keeping the original emotions and tension:

*Adrian's POV*

As the jet descended, I couldn't help but glance over at the door to the room ,still asleep I guess. Part of me wanted to go and watch over her until she woke, but I knew that would look... strange. So, I kept my distance. When the jet finally landed, Lucia stepped out of the room as if she’d been waiting for the moment.

A car was waiting for me as I exited the jet. I moved swiftly, not wanting to waste any time, and she followed me without a word. The ride to the hotel was smooth and quiet, the tension still palpable between us. Yet, there was something different. The air wasn’t as thick with hostility as it had been back at the office. Maybe it was just my imagination, or maybe we were both adjusting to the situation.

We pulled up to a five-star hotel that looked even more magnificent up close. The flowers in the garden outside were beautifully arranged, and I could see Lucia's gaze softening as she took in the sight. I couldn’t help but notice how she seemed to take comfort in the small things, like the way her eyes lingered on the vibrant colors of the flowers.
