After She's Terminal The Alpha Regrets (Elaine and Lucas) novel Chapter 245

245

The next morning, Lucas stood outside of Harriet’s house. He was anxiously adjusting his collar before knocking on the door.

Harriet answers, pulling it open. Her eyes widened as she saw him.

“Is Elaine here?” Lucas asked.

Harriet shook her head. “Nope. She’s been staying at Liam’s rental since getting back,” she replied.

Lucas didn’t particularly like the sound of that. Elaine was staying with Liam? He tried to forget about his own jealousy, that’s not why he was looking for her.

“Can you send me the address?”

“Why do you want to talk to her?” Harriet asked.

“Please, Harriet, this is important.”

Harriet studied his expression, eyes narrowed, before she pulled out her phone. “Yeah, I can. Just…don’t you go doing anything stupid.”

“Let’s hope not,” Lucas muttered as he turned back to his car, pulling out his phone as Harriet sent him the location.

Ten minutes later he was pulling up outside of Liam’s rental. It was a nice two–story house, in one of th more expensive neighborhoods in the territory. Of course it was.

Lucas stepped out of his car, adjusting his jacket before heading for the door. He knocked on the door and after a pause, it was none other than Elaine who answered. She was wearing a loose–fitted Tshirt that if Lucas had to guess, was actually Liam’s.

Seeing her here, in Liam’s house, wearing his clothes…

Lucas shook the thought aside.

“Lucas,” Elaine said.

“You sound surprised.”

“I am here. What are you doing here?” ”

Lucas shifted on his feet. “I came to make sure you were alright.”

Elaine cocked her head to the side. “Why wouldn’t I be?”

“I spoke with Ayla yesterday and…well, she admitted that you had gone to see her.”

“While she was in the jail house, yes. It wasn’t exactly a pleasant conversation.” Elaine hugged herself, recalling that particular meeting quite well. “But speaking of Ayla, I’ve been meaning to talk to you

about her.”
