Alpha's White Lie (Rosy and Blake) novel Chapter 85

Chapter 85

The ride back to Mariners Bay was very quiet. It was 1 am by the time

we got home and I was shivering. I didn’t know if it was from the cold

or from the stress of everything I had just learnt. Blake was keeping a

close eye on me and I could see he was trying his best to keep his

distance.

my

Once we got back to the apartment, I darted for my room. I shut

door and headed for the shower. The solution to many of my

problems came from a hot shower. The hot water running down my

naked body, relaxing all my muscles and sending a soothing sensation

through my nerves was exactly what I needed right now.

I stripped off my clothes and got under the hot water, letting it

soak my hair as well. The water felt so good against my skin and

somewhere in the back of my mind, I wished Blake was in there with

1. me. It sounded crazy to want him so close to me but everything right

now was crazy. I knew I wanted him, my body wanted him but a

werewolf?

I had only read about supernatural things in storybooks and seen

the hunky Jacob Black in Twilight. We’re all these things real? My

mind went back to Dwayne’s words “There is a possibility that your

a

father could have been a werewolf”

Chapter 85

All these years I had never thought of him. I had never asked or

spoken about him but somehow this man that didn’t even know my

existence was becoming part of my present. There must be some

mistake. I mean I would have felt something or seen something that

madé me believe I was one of them but up till now, there was nothing.

I was human and I was sure of it.

The question remained, did I want to learn about Blake’s lifestyle?

Did I still want to be part of his supernatural world?

I turned off the shower and wrapped my towel around me. I patted

myself semi–dry and walked back into my bedroom. My throat was parched. I felt so dehydrated and drained from my hot shower. I looked around my room but my water bottles were empty.

It was 2:30 am now, Blake would have gone to sleep right? I slowly opened my bedroom door and peeked down the corridor. It was dark which meant Blake had gone upstairs. I quickly and quietly walked into the kitchen and opened the fridge to grab a bottle of water. The cold air hits exposed skin sending a shiver through me. I closed the

fridge and turned to head back to my room.

“Why exactly are you walking around in a towel?”

I jumped in panic. My heart was racing. Blake was sitting on the

stairs, blending into the dark.

“What the hell! Can you please not scare me like that?!” I held on

to my towel tightly.

Blake got up and walked down the stairs, flicking on the soft stairs

lights. The lights reflected off Blake’s bare chest. He was wearing

pyjama pants that sat low around his waist.

“I’m sorry. I didn’t realise you were still awake. Are you okay?” I

could see him scanning me.

I was very aware that beneath my towel, I had nothing on. I

clenched my bottle with one hand and my towel with the other. My

dirty mind really just wanted to let go of the towel and see what

Blake did.

“Yeah, I’m okay. Just needed some water.” I held up the bottle.

“Right. Okay, well, have a goodnight” he gave me a tight smile and started walking back up the stairs.

“Blake”

He turned to look at me.

“Can we talk after I get dressed?”

“Sure. Let me go get a t–shirt” he started to climb the stairs again.
