A Mistake Mate novel Chapter 69

When we eventually pulled apart I looked up into Xander's dark eyes and saw the happiness in them, the same happiness that I'm sure reflected in mine.

"Thank you Paisley. You have no idea how bad its been the past couple of weeks, I've missed you so bad." Xander admitted. I smiled softly before replying.

"I can imagine." I answered before tangling my hands into his hair and slamming my lips onto his. Xander was frozen for all of two seconds before his lips were working with mine. Xander swiftly pulled me onto his lap, pulling my body flush against his. I gently tugged on his hair and smiled when he groaned in response.

Xander pulled away from my lips and began kissing down my neck, biting and sucking as he went, he reached my mark and my body shuddered when he kissed it. I pulled his lips back to my own and began softly skimming my fingers up his back. Xander shivered before breaking away and resting his forehead against my own.

Our breathing was heavy as we looked into each others eyes. Our bodies were tangled together and electricity cackled in the air. And in that moment I felt whole.

"I love you." I murmured quietly. Xander smiled and tightened his arms around me.

"I love you too angel." He responded.

"Forever?" I asked in a whisper.

"Forever."

And I knew that everything was true.

*Paisley's POV*

Things have been getting better. Over the last few weeks things have been slowly but surely returning to normal. After Xander and I made up things were still somewhat tense between us. It's not that I didn't believe him, because I do, it's just the fact that the fight we had gotten into was huge and you can't just get over something like that in a few days.

"For my angel." He said quietly. I smiled tenderly and gently took the rose from his hand. I slowly brought it to my nose and inhaled its wonderful scent.

"Thank you." I spoke. Xander grinned before grabbing my waist again and pulling me in for a kiss. Our lips were inches away from each other when a throat was cleared a few feet away and a voice followed after it.

"Watch the PDA children." My dad teased. Mine and Xander's heads snapped towards the sound and I felt a blush light up my face when I realized that our parents were watching us. I groaned and rested my forehead on Xander's chest, embarrassed. Everybody laughed at me, including my mate, before we all made our way into the dinning room.

The delicious scent of the dinner my mom had prepared drifted into my nose and I felt my stomach grumble. My mom quickly placed all of the food on the table before telling us to dig in.

After we all had food on our plates the adults began to talk among themselves leaving me and Xander to ourselves.

"You look beautiful." Xander complimented me. I smiled at him, a small blush appearing.
