Chapter 234
“Ever been on a bike?” Stephen asked as he helped me fix the helmet when he noticed me struggling offered him a s the
gesture, slowly shaking my head.
“Well, it can be fun. There’s not a lot of rules for you. Just hold on to me and make sure you move with the bende Wevád
climbing into his back and urging me to do the same.
I stood for a couple of seconds, staring at the death trap in front of me. I know I had been in a hurry to accept his offer bot that
was without the rationale part of my brain working.
“Come on. It won’t bite. I’ll be careful, I promise.” He said and I swallowed the lump forming in my throat, before moving to settle

behind him, wrapping my arms around his middle and holding on for dear life.
The first minute of the ride had my heart in my stomach, but afterwards it got better. It was almost as if I were lightweight 1 could
feel the wind in my hair and it was one of the best thing I ever experienced. True to his words, Stephen did go as carefully as
possible but the farther we went, the kids a part of me wanted to urge him to go faster.
I couldn’t remember the last time, I had felt this free, I couldn’t remember the last time I had genuinely laughed the way I did
when Stephen took the bends, I couldn’t remember the last time I did something that I truly enjoyed or the last time I had enjoyed
breathing in the scent of someone. No that was a lie, I remembered that last bit. It was five years ago.
It was too good, but like all good things, it came to an end. Even quicker than I had hoped.
“Here we are.” Stephen said and I pulled myself from him. The sight of Lila’s house made me feel relief in a way,
I got out of the bike, swaying a bit, grateful when Stephen reached out a hand to try to stable me.
“Are you okay?” He asked, in his gentle voice and I smiled.
“Yes, of course. That was amazing. Thank you for giving me a ride.”
He nodded in response and then it went quiet between us. I sighed softly and made to move into the house when Stephen called
my name once more.
“Helmet.”

“Oh sorry.” I Saïd embarrassed, taking off the helmet and handing it over to him before giving him a small wave and making my
way again.
“Will you be busy later in the evening?” He called once more and I paused, turning around to face him again.
“No, why?”
“I was wondering if I could show you around? You know, just....” He trailed off, avoiding eye contact while using his free hand to
rub his neck, something Kyla always did when he was nervous.
“Of course. I’ll love that. Thank you.”
The smile that painted the Beta’s lips at my words made me feel warm inside. He gave a small salute that made me laugh and
then he was off. I moved into the house with a lighter skip in my steps than I had when I had come out in the morning.
It felt good to have something to look forward to.
