Aiden is a sex God. He doesn’t have to stimulate me for long and I’m soon screaming his name.
His dislocated shoulder has been healed. Since they removed the sling, he doesn’t allow anyone else to touch me. Not even the nurses.
One of them told me he has it bad, and I kind of agree.
I never thought I would like this side of Aiden, but I do. My chest flutters at witnessing his care and concern for me. It makes me feel special and loved.
This is Aiden after all. He never shows this side to anyone, not even his family.
When Levi and Astrid visited me yesterday, they kept asking me what type of voodoo spell I used.
Everyone else came by as well. Knox and Teal were waiting outside that first day I woke up and spent the night.
Today, they’re here again with the three horsemen and Kim.
Aiden lurks in the corner, cutting an apple for me, his face calm. However, the darkness beneath the surface radiates off him in waves. I can feel it without looking at him.
I know exactly why his demons are contemplating to come out and play.
Aiden is possessive — like over the top. He’s not so pleased that Ronan, Xander, and Knox are sitting on the bed, surrounding me, laughing and jesting about mundane things.
If it were up to Aiden, they’d all be thrown out — except for Kim and Teal. Actually, even the girls are debatable.
However, since he knows I’m happy about their company, he’s trying to control that side of him.
Thus far, he’s succeeding.
I act oblivious as I listen to Knox tell me about their last game and his ‘heroic’ p
erformance.
“I’m telling you, Ellie.” Knox points at himself. “I’m Elites new ace striker.”
“Sorry, mate.” Xander grins, showcasing his charming dimples. “That position is already taken by me.”
“Screw both of you.” Ronan physically shoves them out of the way and takes my hand in his. “Do you know how worried I was, Ellie? I didn’t throw a party for an entire week.”
“Some commitment from the devil,” Teal mutters from her seat next to Cole.
They’re the only calm people in this place.
Teal’s T-shirt for the day reads, I’d agree with you, but we’d both be wrong.
Ronan doesn’t pay her attention and continues in his overly dramatic speech. “Bah alors, Ellie. You can’t get hurt when we’re going to get married.”
“Do you want to meet your maker, Astor?” Aiden’s sombre tone shoots towards us like sharp knives.
I suppress a smile with the back of my hand.
Ronan cocks his head as if deep in thoughts. “No?”
He leans over and takes both mine and Kim’s hands in his. “Seriously, though. I’ve been praying you survive and King doesn’t so we can have that threesome we agreed about.”
“I heard that,” Aiden says from above him.
“Remove your fucking hand.” Xander’s lighthearted mood vanishes as he glares at Ronan.
Kim blushes something fierce before she pulls her hand from Ronan’s.
