*****Erika's POV*****
A knock came at my door and I looked up from the papers in my hand. Being an Alpha was one hell of a responsibility and I was trying my best to get my way around it.
The door was pushed open and a maid walked in with a glass of water.
I smiled at her and received it from the tray she was holding. This made me remember Melisse again.
“Alpha, The Alpha of the Thunderclaw pack, Alpha Noir Hart is here.” She said with a bow and I raised my brow in surprise.
“Noir is here?”
She nodded.
“What for?”
“That, I do not know.” She said honestly and I dismissed her to leave immediately.
I got up from my sitting position and made my way out of the room, straight downstairs to know why Noir was here.
“I really don't like Noir, you know?” Cindy suddenly whined as I climbed down the stairs. I paused in my tracks and smirked.
“You never like anyone, I'm not surprised.” I replied and she sighed.
“He likes you.” She said and I chuckled low. “Hell no, it can't work between me and that man. Remember I had a contract with Father?” I reminded her and she snorted.
“Still, your father isn't conscious now and you might end up falling for that guy.”
I didn't reply to that and just walked straight to the living room. Indeed, Noir was here, but his presence wasn't what caught my attention.
What actually grabbed my entire attention was the bouquet of flowers in his hand.
“What does it mean when a man brings a woman, Flowers?” I subconsciously asked Cindy and she howled.
“That's a clear sign of love, Noir Hart is into you.” She spat out in disgust and I frowned. Did she hate Noir that much?
“I hate that guy so much. It's a deep hatred too.” I laughed at Cindy's words and just went forward towards Noir who was now staring at me non stop.
“Alpha Noir.” I was first to call out to him and his face lit up with a small smile.
“Please call me Noir, the usual way you always do.” He said to me, the smile never leaving his face for once.
“Alright, why are you here?” I asked, going straight to the point.
“Oh, here. I came to see you, then I dropped by a flower shop and bought you this.” he explained and handed me the bouquet in his hand.
Honestly, I wanted to reject it, but I just couldn't. I and Noir had been friends since childhood and he always bought me presents. I never once rejected any of them and it would feel weird to do that now.
“Thank you.” I beamed, accepting the flower he offered me. He smiled even more seeing I had accepted his gift.
“Please take a seat.” I gestured to a sit before him.
