Obsession: the Lycan king's Human Mate

Chapter 76 - The Midnight Visit - I

The night had fallen.

Once again, he moved inside like he had done in the past days that Adaline had been in the hospital.

He had not gone inside whilst people were there, hardly once or twice had he appeared in front of her father to save face.

No-one stopped him from moving inside the hospital after the visiting hours for over. The wolves working there were aware of his presence and the humans knew that his family was far more influential to be stopped.

As soon as he opened the door, he heard, "Did you get it?"

He smiled at that. She was waiting for him too. He raised the back and ruffles came from it. "Yes, I did."

He switched on the lights and Adaline sat on her bed. She giddily the back of McDonald's in her hands and started eating immediately without even waiting for him to get her a plate.

"Hungry, aren't you?" He teased but then tensed up. "Seriously Adeline, are they not feeding you enough?"

She shook her head. "They are. But the food they give is practically tasteless. I could say that it is for someone who cannot chew and swallow. . . Does not have taste buds."

He chuckled at that and watched her eat. It satisfied him that she was being taken care of because the doctors were telling him of every movement she made and so was the surveillance cameras through which he was keeping an eye on her.

"Are you any pain?" He asked as he stared at her fractures.

She shook her head as she stuffed her mouth with a handful of fries. Her fear of eating with etiquettes and manners around her boyfriend for the judgement was far over and now she was a wild child present in front of him who ate as much as she wanted and was extremely messy.

But that was the least of his concerns since his mate was lying in front of him injured and bruised. 

Her eating like normal and unlike the first day was the best thing. 

"Xavier," Adaline looked at him, "Why is it that you come when everyone is gone and that too around in the middle of the night?" 

He smiled faintly. To be honest he had been waiting for that question to arise and for her to ask him. 

But he wanted to hear her talk more which is why he started to stall. 

"I did come in the visiting hours before your friends." 

She shook her head and looked at him pointedly. "That was merely for 10 minutes." 

He grinned. "Not enough for you?" He winked and she blushed. "I get it after all or encounter is usually last—"

"Xavier!" She hissed, "that is not what I was talking about!" 

He chuckled. His beast felt at is knowing that had a lion was behaving that a then she did the first day where she could not even speak and was drowsy and drugged most of the time. 

There it was difficult for people to control him and he remembered the damage that he had caused in the hospital room the very first day so much so that he had to be sedated and be put on in a medically induced coma for 2 days while Adaline was recovering. 

It was hard for her but it was harder for him to watch because it was mate and his incapability to keep her safe. 

"Because I like my alone time with you." He answered and then stood up. "Plus I don't think your father would appreciate me doing this to you in front of him." He took her lips in a powerful hold of his. 

Her toes called immediately at the contact and her heart fluttered when his fingers gripped her hair roughly. Her heart pounded even harder than before. 

Every time with him was most sexual and sensual than before. 

There was no touch ever when she did not feel the most intense feelings when touched by him. 

Even when her body was badly functioning and was hooked up to all kinds of machines and equipment. 

He pulled back and his finger touched her lip softly. "You scared me so much, Adaline. You scared us all so much." 

She smiled but he could sniff out the underlying sadness it had. "I just did not want to hit the wolf."

The wolf. His smile remained, unlike the first time where it faltered when he heard it from her. 

"Yes." He muttered and went back to set on the chair inside of the stool that was provided through him to Adaline's father who spent most of his time here. He then handed her the burger. 

Adaline took it but she still had him with curiosity and a hint of nervousness which he had picked up from her scent. "You do believe me don't you? because I do not line when I say that it was a wolf, I know what I saw."

He nodded immediately, not wanting to have to feel depressed about anything especially about her mate not believing her.

If she said that she is so aliens then Xavier would be the one to believe her without a second thought. 

"Yes love, I do believe you." He answered. "But you must understand that there is no way a wolf would come out to the main road that was connecting two cities and through which almost all the vehicles pass when it comes to going to the airport." 

She sighed. What he said was true because why would a wolf come out so much in the open and make everyone aware of his existence? 

Xavier leaned back into the chair. He usually did not feel guilt especially after the line but there was a different kind of emotion that he felt whenever he lied, even remotely, to Adaline.

But this time cleverly as stated by his family he did not deny the existence of the wolf rather he said that it was read to spot one which would come handy when he would tell her about the existence of them all.

The existence of different wolves, shapeshifters, sirens and of course realms.
