Chapter 20

I was sitting beside his bed, already dressed for school, my face resting in my hands. Watching Xavier's sleeping face. He looked so peaceful so adorable and that wasn't my hormones or anything speaking. His black hair fell on half of his face and I brushed some away lightly. I gasped out as Xavier gripped my wrist on his face, his eyes still closed. He slowly opened them and his glazed grey eyes shone back at me. He directed my hand towards his lips and kissed the inside of my palm. Lifting his eyes up to mine he whispered, ' Tell me, was it all because of your wolf?' I sucked in a breath and looked away. " She is the most breath taking thing I have ever laid eyes on." My eyes widened in realization. I just heard Xavier's thoughts. It made me blush furiously. I quickly looked down at him and saw him already watching me his face masking his sadness and disappointment. Xavier knew it was Olivia who marked him by my reaction and I felt sort of guilty by it.
