I’m bored too.”

“Then…I’ll ask Zane to keep you company. He’s an omega, too.”

Xander was amused by my words.

He stood up.”Let’s go, I’ll walk you back to your room.”

“No, no, no,” I stood up.”It’s just a few steps, I’m not a pup. Mr. Shaw, get some rest. Goodnight.”

Before I finished speaking, I was already walking away.

At the door, about to open it….

“Ding-dong–

A doorbell rang, startling me.

Who would it be this late?

I realized what I was doing, reaching for the handle, when a cold, slender hand appeared behind me, pulling me back.

Xander pulled me back into the living room and sat me down on the sofa. He leaned close to my ear, whispering, “It might be Jason.”

Me:”…Huh??”

My wolf doubted his words, “WHAT WOULD JASON BE DOING HERE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT? WAS THE HEAD WARRIOR BORED AND LOOKING FOR SOMEONE TO CHAT WITH?”

That’s ridiculous!

“I think…”

He only got three words out before shushing me with a serious expression.

I had no choice but to lean closer, whispering, “It’s definitely not him.”

Xander raised an eyebrow.”Want to bet?”

Me:”…No.”

His words were laced with a strong scent of a trap.

Seeing my cautious expression, he gently pinched my cheek. “You lack any sense of adventure. I haven’t even mentioned the stakes yet.”

I remained calm, uttering two words, “No bet.”

“If

you win, I’ll tell you where Coco’s real grandmother is?”

“Bet or not?” Xander asked again.

I didn’t dare to answer casually anymore. What if he made unreasonable demands if I lost?

Xander seemed to see my thoughts and sighed. “Don’t worry, if you lose, you just have to take a walk downstairs with me.”

*A WALK? JUST THAT?’ my wolf didn’t believe Xander would be so generous, but I already made

“Bet!”

This time, I answered with great confidence, as if I was betting everything

my

decision.

Just a walk? I wasn’t afraid of marathons! I ignored my

wolf’s concerns.

Xander pulled me back to the door.

He gestured for me to look.

I took a deep breath, nervously peering through the peephole.

At this moment, whether it was Jason outside was crucial. It was about winning and honor; I had to win!

In the peephole, there was a hotel staff member in uniform.

“I won! I won!!”

I knew it couldn’t be Jason!

Xander smiled indulgently, rubbing the back of my neck.”So happy to have won, huh?”

“Of course!”

My eyes shone brightly.

Xander opened the door.

“Mr. Shaw, this wine was sent by a friend.”

“Okay, thank you.”

Xander accepted the wine from the staff member.

The staff member glanced at me before smiling and leaving.

Xander closed the door.

I curiously asked, “Do you have friends staying in this hotel?”

Xander looked at the wine, smiling casually.
