His Mate, His Girlfriend

Chapter 88

Jealousy

Zeyneb

My nephew and niece rushed to us, hugging and welcoming us before they took us back to the pool. My eyes spotted Luis instantly, and | felt my heart race in my chest. He looked amazing in his black swim shorts. His upper chest was exposed and | wanted to feast my eyes and touch his insanely toned chest, but | refrained. His hair was tousled, giving him a sexier look. When we locked eyes, a smile grew on his face. Was | seeing this correctly? He seldom smiled at me, and now he was. He walked towards me, but | brushed past him with a hi. | wasn’t going to tolerate him sleeping with another woman and then coming to me. | wasn’t the girl to be treated like that. | was a powerful and beautiful woman. Any man would be blessed to have me because | genuinely care for the person | am with.

| could feel his gaze on me. It made me shiver, but | kept my face

indifferent.

‘| want to touch his toned chest and lick all the water off his body Zey purred. Pe rvert. However, desire swirled through me, and my pu ssy throbbed.

| decided to use Michael to make him jealous. To show him what he was missing. | went into the pool after exchanging pleasantries with Love and swam closely to Michael. Michael looked taken back when | held his shoulders titillatingly.

Just f ucking play along. I’m using you,’ | mind-linked him. Michael was about to turn his head to the side when | cradled his face. ‘Don't look!’ | hissed.

‘You and Vanders?’

Wasn't expecting it huh?’

‘| could picture it. He’s your type,’ My gaze discreetly went to Luis. He was fuming with anger. He didn’t even bother hiding his vexation. | smirked.

“Do you want a drink?” | ask Michael. He shook his head. | was

patched, so | got out of the pool, swaying my hips as | went past Luis to the bar. His gaze followed me. | wasn’t surprised when | felt his warm presence behind me,

“Want a drink,” | asked nonchalantly, breaking the silence. | was trying my best to make it look like his presence wasn’t affecting me when it was! Butterflies were churning in my stomach. | looked up at his gorgeous eyes. Anger and lust were swirling in them. Ayelp of surprise left my lips when he pulled me to him by the waist. His gaze made me burn. My heart was pounding in my chest.

Why are you avoiding me?” his deep smooth voice alone made me purr. | needed to get my act together. | swallowed and kept my eye locked on his even though my cheeks burned.

Even after questioning him about Vanessa, he still couldn’t give me a proper answer. My eyes and ears didn’t deceive me at the gala. Luis had a woman, and he was in love with her. | felt angry and hurt as he tried to persuade me from the conversation about Vanessa. | musked my pain and left him standing there. | went back to the water... To

Michael.

“What was that? | could feel the sexual tension all the way here,”

Michael said.

He has a woman in his life, but he wants me,” | sighed. It was f ucked up. How could he say he wanted to know me better when there was another woman in his life?

The situation was so f ucked up especially now, that | was falling for him. Yes, | was a fool. Men broke my heart, but | still wanted to try again. | never did learn how to quit. | never gave up on love. | was a lover who hadn't found my love. | didn’t know if | would. It made me teary. | wanted love so badly. | wanted to have a family of my own.

“So, what's the plan because you're falling for him,” Michael saw right through me.

“| don’t know, Michael,” | sighed, feeling drained already. | was sure about one thing. | wouldn't let him treat me as he pleased. | won't be the girl he came to when he is h orny or lonely. No.

Michel groaned and grabbed my waist. | gasped when he pulled me closer to him and placed a light kiss on my lips.

‘Don't. I’m helping him realize his feelings for you,’ he said via mind

link.

‘Luis doesn’t have feelings for me,’

Michael scoffed, ‘You're so clueless. Just let me help,’ he husked,

close to my ears.

In the corner of my vision, | saw a frustrated look on Luis’ face. H looked like he wanted to kill Michael for touching me. Maybe | wasn't thinking rationally right now, but | nodded.

‘| won't leave here alive, will 1?’ Michael snickered.

‘Don’t worry, I’m sure you can take him in a fight,’ | joked. Michael was a top warrior.

“Oh, | wish,’ | pulled my body away from him and looked at Michael.

What do you mean you wish?” | whispered.

Sweetheart, that’s Luis Vanders,”

| knew that already. | could sense Luis’ inner Lycan was strong, but surely not as strong as Michael's.

Don’t you know the identity of the man you f uck around with?’ Michael sounded amused. However, | didn’t understand what he meant.

Vanders is no small name in the higher ranks, Zey. Luis is a secret Elite force soldier, and his father is Bandela Vanders,” he informed me, and | almost choked on my spit. Elite force soldier? They were the best of the best. They were spies, assassins, and whatever they could be to protect the realm. How did | not know this? As for the Vanders family. They owned SHIELD. The best security company and | heard the sons of the family were doing incredible things, they were like super ghosts who kept supernaturals safe in the realm. | worked with Mr. Bandela Vanders when the North was constantly under international attacks. He saved my grandmother's life once.

‘That would explain why Luis doesn’t want a relationship because of the nature of his job. The vanders have enemies, Zeyneb, and he’s just scared!’ Zey said, swooning over him again. She was right. The secre Elite forces were highly targeted and secretive.

‘Zeyneb, let’s just go out on a date with him and see what happens,’

‘Mulling,’ | sighed, and she slithered back to my mind to let me.

| got out of the pool and sat on the lounge chairs, hoping Luis would come to me, but he didn’t. | gave up waiting and watched my brother’s family have the time of their life. Ellis and Love were flirting with each other. They tried to make it modest, but they were failing

They adored each other since they were kids, and it is only right that they end up together.

| wanted what they had. A love that burned. A love that could withstand time. A forever kind of Love. My eyes went to Luis. He was

watching me softly. He didn’t avert his gaze, and neither did |. He got up and approached me, sitting beside me.

Please go out on a date with me,” | didn’t anticipate the gentleness in his voice after the little show | gave him with Michael. | pressed my lips together, not wanting to answer quickly or look eager.

“Why?” | asked, crossing my arms.

Because | think about you more than | like to admit. Maybe you

really bewitched me,” his voice was dangerously calm.

| sighed in defeat and nodded in response.

Okay, just one,”

He smiled. | liked his smile a lot, and it made me smile. His hand reached to touch my jaw.

“| like your smile, Witch,”

My heart ceased, and my smile grew. | covered my face with my hands. | was shy around him now. Luis removed my hands from my face. | was blushing like crazy! | didn’t want to give him any easy way and | wanted him to tell me everything about Vanessa. M Sunshine Princess Author
