My Two Alphas novel Chapter 44

　　Lucy POV

　　I woke in the middle of the night to this overwhelming feeling of dread. Sitting up I found myself naked and Tyson was fast asleep pressed against my back. I toss the blanket back before rummaging through the dresser and I grab one of Tysons shirts and slip it on before walking out of the room toward the kitchen. My stomach turned violently making me wonder what was going on with me. My mind was racing and somehow kept going to Ace, I just had a terrible feeling something was going on with him.

　　I make myself a glass of water before picking up Tyson’s phone and see it is a little after 2am. I drink the glass of water before rinsing my glass and placing it on the sink upside down. I then slip down the hall stopping out the front of Ace’s bedroom door. I grip the door handle and twist it open. His scent was faint and I couldn’t see him in the room. I flick the light on and confirm that he still isn’t home. I sigh, shutting the light off and closing the door.

　　I wonder where he is? Maybe he is with Melana and that was the feeling of dread that was consuming me, but then again he now knew I could feel them together so I doubted that, he wouldn’t be that stupid and he would know Tyson would lose it and I would reject him if he did. Yet the feeling got worse and I couldn't place it. I just knew it had something to do with Ace. Walking back to Tyson’s room, I climb back in bed. I toss and turn trying to get back to sleep, but the sinking feeling in my gut was making me nauseous.

　　“What’s wrong?” Tyson asks sleepily yawning as he rolls into me before tugging me flush against him.

　　“Have you heard from Ace?” I ask him.

　　“He still isn’t home?” Tyson mumbles and I shake my head.

　　“He will be fine Lucy, he will come home when he is ready” Tyson says, kissing my shoulder when I suddenly hear the front door open.

　　“See? He is fine” Tyson mumbles and I hear the front door close before hearing footsteps walking down the hallway. I hear him stop at his bedroom door for a second before he continues and I feel myself relax when I get a whiff of his scent seep into the room before the door is pushed open more. Ace walks in and leans over the bed and I turn my face to look up at him and he jerks back.

　　“Sorry I didn’t realise you were awake” he whispers standing upright. Yet I couldn’t explain the immense relief I had upon seeing him, the sickly feeling in my stomach settling now I could see him.

　　“Why didn’t you come home earlier?” I ask him as he goes to turn around and leave.

　　“My car broke down, I only just got home” Ace tells me and I nod.
