Chapter 277 
Lewis POV. 
Goddess, I felt like an absolute idiot as I stared at the walls that surrounded my room. I lay on my back in bed, on the side that was previously occupied by my mate. 
I should never have requested a room be prepared! especially after the day she’d had. Instead she’s an I’m around her. 
her, she should have been here, with me, 
simply because I turn into a caveman every time 
I couldn’t help but turn around onto my side in the bed and grab her pillow out from under me, my body instinctively curled around it like a child would a soft toy, and my nose buried itself into it, taking in her scent to calm my thoughts. 
My sight drifted over to the book I had read to her, and a smile crossed my features knowing how engrossed she got in a mere two chapters. The way her head rested so effortlessly on my chest, and her frail body curled right up into me, had me feeling a type of blissful euphoria I didn’t think a man could feel, especially when that man was me. 
My thoughts however quickly shifted when a warm breeze shot through the room, enveloping my body and filling me with an immense sense of dread. The same exact thing that happened right before I walked in on Dylan harming her wrists in the palace months ago. 

I just knew I had to get to her. 
As I ran down the stairs and towards her door the feeling of dread amplified massively. I was a bigger fool than I thought, I should have been with her from the moment she got back from Daltons pack. 
I knocked quickly, but once I had heard her laboured breathing I took it upon myself to simply walk in. 
She sat in bed, staring at her shaking hands while on the verge of completely hyperventilating. Her eyes had began to brim with water which made me feel even worse for leaving her alone. 
“Just breathe ok?” I remained in the doorway, feeling awful at the state she was in, knowing full well my selfishness was what caused it in the first place. I knew she was more at ease with me, and as much as I loved that fact, right now I hated myself for putting my needs first. 

“Hold me!” Her demand was clear/and my heart broke even more when a single tear trickled out of her beautiful eyes. I didn’t waste a beat in running over to her and clamouring onto her bed, pulling her into my chest in record time. 
Her thin arms immediately wrapped around me and her head pressed firmly against my chest, while she regulated her breathing using my own as her example.

Chapter 277 
“Why didn’t you send for me?” I asked after her panic had eased and her breath had evened out properly. My question however 
Sulted in her breaking contact between us. Her head rose from my chest and her eyes showed nothing but anger. 
“Why did you kick me out?‘ I instantly went quiet, surely that’s not what she actually thought I’d done. However looking at her face, I knew that’s exactly what she thought. I had kicked her out, after everything I had said about being there for her. “Have I done something? Was it because of this 
morning? Because I’m sorry if I made you feel uner 
rtable.” 
Surely she must know this was entirely my fault, it had nothing to do with her actions, just my feelings. 
“No, no. You haven’t done anything. It’s me, it’s just too difficult for me to be in the same room as you.” That hurt her, I knew because it flashed over her already glassy eyes. 
“What do you mean? I thought you liked me? You said…” I was doing it again, I wasn’t making myself clear which lead her to believe my feelings weren’t genuine. I had been an absolute bastard to her. 
“I love you…” I stated strongly so that she knew there was no doubt in my words. “And I am trying my 
hardest to show you that, but when I’m with you, I have urges that I’m finding really hard to control…. 
Urges that you’re not ready for.” At first, nothing but confusion clouded her, it was only after a minute that her eyes widened and she realized exactly what urges I meant.
