Larrissa's POV
Did that just happen?
The Alpha had just cleared me out of trouble so easily…
Did he really mean the words he said earlier in the day? Is he really my mate or am I overthinking this?!
"I've been looking for a reason to put an end to that so- called court and this might just be what I need!" Darrell said, obviously in his own world as he spoke…
He finally met my gaze in silence, wondering what was wrong with me…
"Larrissa, is everything alright?" He asked, covering the distance between us.
His hands were around my shoulders as he stared down at me in concern. How could I not have noticed how much he cared about me?
Why is this truth leaving a bitter feeling in me, knowing he's been completely open, and I've not been doing the same to him…
I felt horrible that I wanted to cry, but that would only alarm him even further.
"Talk to me Larrissa, is everything okay? Is something uncomfortable? I'll have it removed immediately!"
