Chapter 342: Sick
Jules
Perhaps it was because Blaze was gonna be traveling tomorrow morning, but I couldn’t find my appetite. I tried and failed to eat, the food kept getting stuck in my throat, and after getting fed up, I stopped trying. When Blaze noticed my still full plate, despite our friends being present around the table, he tugged me over his laps and pressed a kiss against my ear, asking me what was wrong.
I told him I didn’t have an appetite, but he still tried to get me to eat some more. And I tried for him, because obviously I loved making him happy and pleasing him, and the kisses ke kept pressing against my ear along with praises in between bites was very gratifying, but at a point, I grew nauseous and completely stopped eating. I buried my face in Blaze’s throat and curled up in his arms while his soothing voice washed over me as he casually spoke with the rest of the people around the table.
At one point, they tried teasing Jason and I for being shameless and obsessed love birds but I couldn’t even bring myself to chip into the conversation. Blaze took the teasing and didn’t seem like he cared. He just kept asking me if I was fine every now and then, and after about ten minutes, he bid the rest of the table goodnight and rose with me in his arms.
It was honestly embarrassing. My legs worked just fine but I didn’t want him to put me down, because being in his arms was more comfortable. I waved at the guys from across his shoulder and they cooed and awed and snickered right before Jason disappeared, reappearing in the middle of our room.
I felt too tired to shower but Blaze helped undress me and we took a quick shower. After that, we got into bed and I laid against his chest, his heartbeat echoing into my ear and sounding like the most soothing rhythm ever.
"I’ll be back as fast as I can, then we’ll get married, okay?" He spoke softly in the silence and I stiffened even as my heart fluttered.
"I know I shouldn’t be worried at this point. You’re clearly so powerful, but I just can’t help it. I hope nothing happens to you and that you return back unscathed to me." I mumbled and Blaze chuckled softly.
"Bunny, that’s exactly how I feel about you. You’re literally a ruler of a clan, and basically the most powerful warlock alive right now and yet, I still feel worried about you, that I almost don’t want to leave tomorrow because I don’t wanna leave you alone for a second." He revealed and I couldn’t help the giggle that escaped my lips. He hummed and brushed a kiss against my head before rolling sideways to press his face into my throat. He inhaled deeply and my stomach clenched and fluttered right before he nuzzled the skin of my throat.
