Chasing His Kickass Luna Back novel Chapter 367

My eyes widen in surprise. “Dancing at a party doesn’t mean we’re back together,” I clarify. “It was just a dance, Alice.”

The housekeeper gives me a knowing look. “Of course, dear. I understand,” she says in that tone of voice that tells me that she doesn’t particularly believe me. “But you must know how people love to talk. They’ve been saying all sorts of things.”

I shake my head, feeling a mix of frustration and amusement. “I forgot how gossipy people can be out here in the countryside.”

Alice chuckles softly. “It is a small town, after all. News travels fast. Much faster than the big city, at least.”

As she takes my plate to wash it, I can’t help but wonder why Karl hasn’t corrected these rumors. Maybe he enjoys the speculation, or maybe he hasn’t even heard about it. Regardless, it’s not the kind of attention I want right now.

I thank Alice for her help, and she nods with a warm smile. “You’re welcome, dear. If you need anything else, don’t hesitate to ask.”

I exit the kitchen, feeling a bit disoriented by the conversation. It’s clear that my arrival here has stirred up some excitement among the pack members. I make a mental note to have a talk with Karl about it. I don’t want any misunderstandings or false expectations.

Passing through the dining room, I start to head toward the stairs toward my room. Sarah is just coming down, and there’s a smile on her face.

“Is there anything else you need?” she asks. “I just brought your bag upstairs for you.”

I offer a grateful smile. “No, thank you, Sarah. The food was wonderful. I think I’ll head up to my room now. Thank you for taking my bag, although you didn’t have to.”

She nods understandingly. “Of course. Enjoy your stay here. If you need anything, don’t hesitate to ask.”
