Chapter 20

Dawn and Joel's History

Dawns POV

I heard muffled voices that were faint to my ears. My eyes were closed and felt heavy like they were glued shut. My breathing was ragged and I wanted an escape from the darkness.

"Alpha" A voice said and I heard a grunt in response, obviously Julian's.

"I know its been a week since she's woken but we need to keep moving, the chosen one; the old lady said, is not far."

I've been out for a week?! But then again I couldn't help but wonder, who the hell is 'the chosen one'

Julian growled furiously, "How dare you say that!" I heard the whimper of the voice, and it was masculine, he even made males whimper.

"My mate is in a coma and your worried about some damn prophecy we're going after!" He yelled and I knew he was getting raged. I had many questions but my head was thumping and his voice was making it hurt more with the yelling.

Slowly my eyes opened and it was blurry.

"Shut up." I managed to get out as I heard their gasp and could see through my blurry vision how their eyes bulged when they stared at me wide eyed.

"Dawn." Julian said and I weakly lifted my hands to wipe my eyes to see them better.

"Who else would I be?" I couldn't help but smile at his daze stage. The next thing I know he charges at me and hugs me tight, so tight I could barely breath. His head nuzzled in my neck as I felt sparks erupt and I loved the feeling of him touching me.

"Don't ever scare me like that again." He mumbled in my neck and I smiled lightly, "I would never intentionally." I told him honestly, as much as sometimes he made me so angry and he had different emotions flood through him I could never see a hurt Julian. It brought my heart to pieces especially if I was the cause.

He lifted his head and stared into my eyes, his hazel orbs drawing me in, calling me as they swirled and then he pressed his lips against mine.

The kiss was gentle and sweet but long. I closed my eyes savouring the moment. The way he kissed me it was as if this was the last time.

When I opened my eyes he smiled at me and then turned to something in back of him, Trey who was smiling but still had fear in his eyes.

"Leave me and my mate for a moment Trey." Julian told him and he nodded leaving the room.

"You scared me so much when you passed out... I thought... I thought..." I waited as there was a moment of silence.

"I was gonna loose you forever." I opened my mouth to tell him he wasn't till he beat me to it.

"I love you Dawn."

A wise man told me before, 4 L phrases; Amor non conosce travaglio, Amor regge senza legge, Amor tutti fa uguali, Amor é cieco.

When Julian told me he loved me I couldn't help but think about those phrases. What if love did tire for us? And he would never love me again after some time. What if love did have rules well rules by him anyway and I had to follow something in order for him to love me? Love made man equal, since Julian said he loved me did I look as his equal or a scared little rogue who hid and ran for years? Lastly, love is blind. I didn't know what to say about that.

When I look into Julian's eyes searching for anything, a doubt, a regret, a misconception I saw nothing but the honest truth and the love he held, the admiration. He loved me. But now the question is did I love him?
