This was unbelievable! Today was the worst day to pull this stunt. I won’t let this slide easily. 

“You can’t sleep on my bed” Clara suddenly said, turning my attention to her. 

“What?” I muttered as turned to her and she folded her arms. 

“You can’t sleep on my bed, you’ll have to sleep on the floor. I’ll lay down a blanket for you” She murmured then walked away and I stood there for a while before letting out a scoff. The Audacity! 

I watched as she laid down a blanket next to the bed and only when she was done did I walk over and lay on the bed. 

“What are you doing?” She questioned and I turned to her with an innocent look. 

“What?” I questioned and she groaned. 

“I said you couldn’t lay on my bed” She muttered through clenched teeth and I raised an eyebrow. 

“The last time I checked, this house belongs to me and so does the bed so if anything, you can’t lay on my bed. Now shut up so we can sleep and get this night over it” I muttered then closed my eyes. 

“What kind of gentleman are you? You’re really going to let a lady lay on the ground?” She uttered and I opened one eye. 

“Where’s the lady?” I murmured and she glared at me before jumping into bed and laying next to me. 

“Fine then we’ll both lay on the bed. Have fun listening to me snore” She muttered and I instantly wrapped my arms around her waist, pulling her close.. 

She let out a gasp as she stared at me with wide eyes while I just smirked. 

“Are you sure you want to lay next to me? We are supposed to be mating, maybe I’ll just…” I trailed off as I dragged my fingers down her thighs. I was just teasing her but with the way my pants were getting tighter, it felt like I was the one getting teased. 

Clara immediately moved away from me and got out of the bed. 

“Fine, I’ll sleep on the ground!” She uttered exasperatedly and I smiled before turning away. 

“Off the lights” I ordered and she sighed then grumbled as she turned off the lights. I listened to her groan as she got on the floor and I opened my eyes slightly to spy on her. 

We were both silent for a while, I wasn’t able to sleep because I could hear her tossing and turning on the floor. 

“I would never let my colleagues touch you, Clara” I didn’t know why I was saying this but my wolf has been giving me attitude ever since spoke to Clara that way and even I was starting to feel guilty. 

“Those girls I gave out to them were sluts and would do anything to climb up the social ladder. They willingly gave themselves to those men, I was just a stepping stone” I murmured and she didn’t say anything for a while then she sighed.

“Why didn’t you say that earlier?” She questioned softly and I pursed my lips. 

“I’m not usually one to correct someone when they have a bad perception of me and there’s no doubt that I am a bad person but if we are going to make this happy marriage couple facade possible, we have to learn how to tolerate each other as hard as that sounds” I murmured and she sighed. 

“I guess I can learn 

I chuckled. 

to tolerate you but please become Alpha King soon, I don’t know how much longer I can stay with you” She uttered and 

“The feeling is mutual little devil” I murmured and was about to close my eyes when she uttered; 

“You still cannot interfere in my personal life and I will do the same. We will pretend to be a happy couple in front of everyone but when we are together, we don’t have to pretend” She murmured and I frowned. I didn’t know why her words angered me. 

“Sleep” I ordered then heard her sigh. 

After a while, her breathing got stable which meant she had fallen asleep while I laid there wide awake. For some reason, I couldn’t fall 

asleep.
