His Mate, His Girlfriend (Love and Ellis) novel Chapter 27

Chapter 27

Ellis

This month has been turmoil for me. I was elated to have my Love back, but also melancholy because she’s not mine. She belonged to David now. It was after 5 PM, and I hadn’t seen Love. I was told she was working with the app developers in the studio. She avoided me like I carried the plague contemplated going there but I didn’t want to make her uncomfortable. Besides, what would be my reason for going to the studio? I never go there because I have employees to oversee that area.

However, I found myself heading to the studio she was in, and my inner lycan was cheering me on. He missed her, and having her close yet so far was difficult for us. I watched her work or talk to her from a distance.

I pushed the door to the studio open, and silence befell the room. I noticed Love immediately. She stiffened when she sensed me enter the room. She was leaning over the desk of the developer as she used his computer to show him something, giving a perfect view of her perfect butt. A sickening jealousy coursed through me at their closeness. Her body was slightly touching his.

Unlike everyone who got on their feet, she maintained her sexy position, trying to ignore me and keep busy on the machine. A woman and man rushed to me, looking frantic.

“Sir, you should have called if you needed something. No need to –” I raised a hand at the woman who spoke.

I just wanted to see how things are going here,” I stated, looking around the wall machines. My company had the best technology when it came to development. My legs moved me closer to Love. I could feel the pounding of her heart, but still, she didn’t move from her position.

“The design isn’t to my liking. I want something that can be worn on the wrist,” she murmured to the man who warily stole glances at me.

“We are just using it to test. The other team will work on the design you want,” the engineer answered. He was uneasy now that I was watching him. Love noticed his nervousness and exhaled. She stood straight to face me.

“May we help you, Sir?” she asked with hidden pique. I was more focused on the way her lips moved. They were seducing me, and Lias purred. Her eyes, her eyes were mesmerizing. I couldn’t talk for a good few seconds, or a full minute, even after opening my mouth a couple of times. Love had the power to render me speechless. I was one of the most powerful Lycan alphas in the world yet, this woman, rendered me powerless before her. I said the first thing I could think of.

“Why are you still working at this time?” I asked. Love only checked the time irritably and parted her lips a little. It was time to knock off. I wanted to kiss her at that moment. She looked so cute. She clapped once, getting everyone’s attention.

“Alright, guys. Time is up,”

The employees protested, wanting to finish their work for the day.

“No, I’m not having HR write an email to me again. Leave now,” she ordered in a friendly manner, pointing towards the door. They got up and headed out the door, all saying goodbyes to her. They enjoyed working with her, from what I could see. Love attempted to move past me, but I held her hand.

“Love, you can’t keep avoiding me,” I told her. She lifted her gaze to me sharply and pouted her lips.

“I’m not avoiding you, Sir. I have nothing to say to you,” she says. Sir, I repeated, it feels so strange when she says it so formally, especially after the office–secretary sex games we used to play when we were together. She must have thought about that too because her breath shuddered as her cheeks turned crimson. Love turned her face from me. My dick itched instantly in my pants at the memories that flooded my mind.

“J- Just leave me alone,” she warned sharply. Her heart was racing, and so was mine. We were so close.

“Have coffee with me, please, Love,” She seemed to contemplate my words. Slowly, she nodded.

The staff was gone, and we walked to the parking lot. The silence was deafening, especially in the elevator. When we reached the first floor, she glanced at me, and we locked gazes. Time slowed at that moment, and the only thing I could hear was her

heartbeat. I truly wanted to hold her close to me, and never let go. I wanted to interlock my fingers with her and tell her, I missed her badly because I did. I truly wholly did. Lias stirred in happiness.

“My driver is there, um, where should we go?” she asked as we left the elevator.

“Passion’s Corner Cafe,”

“No!” she interjected. That used to be our place and the same café where she learned I betrayed her with Charlotte. My mood

darkened at that remembrance.

“Um, we can go to J’s,” she murmured, and I squinted my eyes. She hated that place because the waitresses were over–friendly

towards males.

“But-”

“I’m going home then,” she shrugged, turning to leave.
