My fated alpha by Natalie novel Chapter 14

Hayden

It was hard for me to not look at her and feel something. The little devil in my pants had taken a while to calm down but the moment I touched her, he grew hard again.

Damn.

I tried to tell myself that this was because I had never seen a girl wearing my shirt…just my shirt.

My brain was already imagining the softness of her skin underneath but I willed myself to focus on her face.

She was just harassed by someone and if I were to do the same thing, how different would I be from the person she had run away from?

But I couldn’t help it. I wanted to touch her so I pulled her close and gently kissed her forehead.

She was scared of returning back and as much as I wanted to keep her away from harm, I couldn’t just take her in my pack.

Not with the treaty in place. I would have to find a way to make Garron leave her, respectfully. He thought of her as a slave, and I didn't want that to become her identity.

I knew he would just find ways of coming back at her and to me.

He was the alpha of the pack she belonged to after all.

My fists clenched at the thought of letting her go back to Steve again and what he might do to her but I had to get my act together.

Luke was trying to goad me into tearing Steve apart but I tried to calm him down.

Damn everything in me needed to calm down. I decided that I would have to take a shower to be able to breathe again with her so close to me.

Willing myself to step back a little, I put some distance between her and me. Turning around, I managed to say, “I’ll ask Raine to get you something decent enough to wear.”

I didn’t dare look at her again. My will was crumbling and the bed wasn’t that far away either.

Stepping outside her room, I closed the door behind me as I walked towards my house. Raine was as usual busy in the kitchen, preparing a nice meal for us.

Knocking on the door, I waited outside while she raised her eyebrows questioningly.

“I need to lend some clothes from you.”

At my line, her eyes went wide and she used the spoon that was in her hand to gently hit me.

“I am sure none of my clothes would fit you…or are you implying that I have become fat?”

Raine put her hands on her hips and I answered while scratching the back of my head, “Not for me.”

The aroma of her cooking filled the entire house and it wafted towards me. My stomach growled and so did Luke.

“What are you cooking?”

I asked her delightedly and she answered with a chuckle, “You will see that when I serve food. No peeking”

She moved away from the door and I walked inside, heading straight for the shower.

The image of Madeleine in my shirt had been seared into my memory and I needed a hot shower before I could face her again.

Thus, I walked towards my room before I heard Raine shout, “And, just wear your clothes when you step out. I don’t want to see my brother roaming around half naked.”

Her line made me smile and I closed the door behind me. Stepping into the shower, I turned it on as the water flowed down my body. I placed my hands on the wall as my brain began replaying scenes of her trying to tug the shirt down again.

I squeezed my eyes shut and willed myself to think of something… anything else. I tried to focus on work, recalling the details of the file I had been reading but nothing came to mind.

I took the shampoo and began lathering it all over my head. Luke let out a groan trying to make me lose control of myself.

Was this a sign? Was I beginning to forget her and finally look at someone else?

I had never felt like this in ages and I tried to think what made Madeleine so special. She didn’t even have a wolf.
