His Incurable Omega novel Chapter 20

Fayette stared at the tall dark back that was facing her. Black hair that was swept in a style was leaned back, as the person the Queen indicated as the Prince had his face raised to the light show above.

The Queen took the Prince's shoulder in her hand and squeezed it.

A sigh could be seen given from the back of the tall dark person. Slowly the figure turned around, reluctant as if he did not want to let his eyes leave the show that was above him.

Facing the Queen and Fayette, he looked down and froze.

The Queen stared with wide eyes as she witnessed a sight she had never seen before.

Tears were streaming down the Prince's face.

The Queen turned to say something to Fayette when she jolted away and let go of the girl.

Tears were streaming down Fayette's face.

Fayette looked in confusion and wiped her hands on her cheek, looking in disbelief at the liquid that was pouring down.

Gasping the Queen turned and walked swiftly away. She needed to find Gavin.

She left Fayette and the Prince alone to stare at each other. Neither one noticed her departure.

When looking back, Fayette could never tell exactly what had happened in that moment. Her heart did not pound, nor did her hand's shake or knees go weak as Lizzy always described it. Instead, she felt calm. No anxiety. No agitation.

The Prince took a step closer to Fayette. As the party whirled on, no one noticed the change in history that was being made in that moment.

Slowly, he took Fayette's hand in his. The Prince raised it to his lips and softly kissed it, closing his eyes. When he opened them, it was as if something clicked inside. Still holding her hand, he took another step closer and whispered softly to her,

"There you are. I've been looking for you."

Had you been there tonight you might

know how it feels,

to be struck to the bone in a moment of

breathless delight.

-Les Miserable

All my life my heart has sought a thing I cannot name.

A piece that suddenly clicked into place. I had always rolled my eyes when Lizzy talked about love at first sight. I didn't believe it. Even now looking into his eyes, I still don't believe it. But I believe in that click.

As he took a step closer to me.

And then another.

As he reached out for my hand and I gave it to him.

As he kissed it slowly.

Letting flesh touch flesh for the first time.

He kept my gaze, staring into me. I couldn't tell what emotion was going through his face at the moment. I didn't know what he was thinking.

"Please," he choked out.

I wanted to be with him. It was strange. I didn't want to run away. I didn't even feel scared about the fact that I was his life-mate. He was mine also. I wanted to stay with him.

My head cleared enough after those thoughts for me to register screaming in my ears.

"FAYETTE THAT'S THE PRINCE THE PRINCE LIKES YOU HE LOVES YOU!" Lizzy screamed. I could even hear calm collected Jane in the background hyperventilating saying over and over, "What just happened What just happened."

"DANCE FAYETTE!" Lizzy screamed at me.

I winced at the noise that I now could register.

I looked up at the Prince only to see a ghost of a smile on his face. Holding out his elbow for me, he motioned his head toward the crowd that was moving. I knew he could hear Lizzy and Jane.

They were so loud.

Without hesitation, I took his elbow. I felt calm around him. Maybe it was the fact that I knew we were life mates, or maybe it was a wolf thing. But his presence, how big he was, and the power that he exerted, all made me feel safe.

Leading into the middle of the crowd, the Prince took my hand and started to grab my waist.

When suddenly the slow music changed.

I looked up in horror when I heard the first few notes of the song that only two girls knew I loved to dance to.
