Alpha Maximus The Last Lycan novel Chapter 29

"Oh no, I couldn't.' she cries, waving her hands around.

"We insist. Could you recommend a hotel around here?" I say, placing the wad of cash in her hands.

"There is a ton of short-term apartments in the city, or there are a couple of hotels up the road there.' she says.

"Okay, thank you, Sally, we will go to the closest hotel up the road, and we can meet back here tomorrow for the rest of the cash.' I say to her.

"Okay, well, no worries, if you need me in the meantime, you know where I live.' she smiles and waves. We wave goodbye as she walks away.

Further up the road, we find a luxurious hotel. It's eight stories high. It has a large fountain out the front with lily flowers floating in the water. A man in a suit greets us and opens the door for us. A strong fragrance smell hits us as we enter to see flowers in large vases. The sitting area is luxurious, with red velvet chairs and mahogany furniture. We approach the front desk, where an older gentleman serves us.

Alpha Maximus pays for a week in advance. He takes the key, and we step into the elevator, arrive at the top floor, and enter our room.

We have our dining room with a nice view from the large window. The kitchenette has a fridge with wine, cheese and other nibbles.

There's a fancy menu next to the phone which lists numbers to call if we want to order a meal or for other inquiries. The bathroom has a spa, and the bed has silk coverings with rose petals and chocolates.

After we explore the rooms, I pick up the phone and dial the numbers on the list to contact the man at the desk and organise a lift into the city for us.

"Can't we go tomorrow?" Hope asks.

"We need fresh clothes. This shirt is too tight on me.'

Hope nods in understanding. We leave the room and enter the elevator to the ground floor. A car is already waiting for us. As soon as we arrive in the inner city,

We enter a clothes store and choose a couple of outfits each. As we leave the store, I pick up the scent of other werewolves nearby.

I pause and look around, scanning the people in the area

"Is something wrong?" Hope asks, looking around.

"I smell other wolves. Stay close, okay?" I tell her.

Fearful, she holds my arm and nervously looks around.
