Page 73 of My Unexpected Mate

I looked back at Gabriel and felt this vast need to hug him. So, I did. I wrapped my arms around his neck and hugged him tightly. He immediately hugged me back and chuckled. He placed his hand on my head and held me close. I had never felt safer.

“Thank you, Gabriel,” I said and let go of him.

“No need to thank me,” he said and smiled at me. “Just let me know when you decide.”

“I have decided,” I said bravely. “I want you to do it now.”

The three of them looked at me surprised.

“Are you sure?” Nick asked and took my hand.

“Yes,” I said. “I can’t go on not knowing what happened. I need to know.”

Gabriel nodded. “Okay. I will do it.”

“Now?” I said and started to get up.

Gabriel pulled me back. “No. Tomorrow. You need to rest first.”

I sighed and wanted to protest but Gabriel’s gaze stopped me.

“You came home terrified, you found out about the spell, you fainted. I am not putting you through anything more today,” he said strictly. “The spell alone is going to drain your energy and we don’t even know what those memories are about. You need to eat and sleep. We will do it tomorrow.”

“Fine,” I sighed. “What are we having for dinner?”

We settled on a pizza and spent the rest of the evening watching movies and laughing. I tried not to think about the next day, but it was hard. What was I going to find out? How will it change my life? What will happen to me?

CHAPTER TWENTY-THREE – The Spell

Gabriel’s POV

“Gabriel?” I heard somebody calling my name.

I grunted and turned to my side. “Five more minutes.”

Somebody chuckled. “Come on. It is 1 pm already.”

“You are lying,” I mumbled.

“I love to sleep as much as you do, but you have to get up,” somebody said and laughed again. “Nick’s mom is making us lunch and I am impatient to start the spell.”

I opened my eyes and turned to see Aria standing next to my bed.

She was smiling at me, but I could see anticipation and nervousness in her green eyes.

Her long hair was in a messy bun, and she was wearing jeans, a white t-shirt, and sneakers.

“Did you go out?” I asked and sat up.

“Yeah. Annie and I went to get some ice cream for later,” she said. “You know, for comfort after the spell.”

I laughed. “Ice cream helps?”

“Oh, yes,” she smiled brightly. “Ice cream is the solution to any problem.”

I laughed and she smiled at me. “Get up. We have a lot to do today.”

I grunted and got off the bed. “Yes, boss.”
