Piss Off, Alpha! You Lost Me Forever novel Chapter 124

Chapter 124: Chapter 124 This Is Harassment

SOPHIA’S POV

My heart was racing fast.

"This is harassment-" I said.

"This is courting." He smiled. "There’s a difference."

I stood there, looking at Zade in disbelief.

His persistence was starting to annoy me.

“Leave me alone!” I snapped at him.

Without waiting for him to say anything, I walked away but Zade grabbed my hand.

He looked at me “Your brother is about to walk in”

That was when I heard the rumble of Marco’s truck engine. Zade was rigt.

My brother. Marco was coming down the street.

Panic shot through me like lightning. If Marco saw me standing here with Zade. if he realized this was the same man who’d been sending me expensive gifts, who’d been pursuing me despite my marriage. he’d lose his mind.

Without thinking, I grabbed Zade’s jacket and pulled him toward me, pressing myself against his chest and burying my face in his shoulder.

Zade went completely still. I could feel his heart hammering beneath my cheek. I could sense his wolf rising to the surface in response to my sudden closeness.

"Sophia?" His voice was rough "What are you-"

"Shhh!" I hissed, gripping his jacket tighter. "My brother. Don’t move."

I heard Marco’s truck slow down as it passed us. Through my peripheral vision, I could see him glancing our way, but from his angle, he’d only see Zade’s back.

To him, Zade was probably just another alpha wolf who’d stopped to talk to someone on the street.

The truck kept going, turning the corner toward the main house’s back entrance.

I let out a breath I didn’t know I was holding.

But when I tried to pull away, Zade’s arms came around me, holding me in place.

"What are you doing?" I demanded, my voice muffled against his chest.

"Enjoying the moment," he said, and I could hear the smile in his voice. "You came to me willingly this time."

"I was hiding from my brother, not—" I pushed against his chest, but he didn’t budge. "Let go!"

"In a minute." Zade’s hand came up to cradle the back of my head. He ran his fingers through my hair. "This is the first time you’ve let yourself touch me without immediately running away. I’m not wasting it."

"This isn’t-I didn’t mean-" My protests died as I became acutely aware of how perfectly I fit against him.

My wolf purred, the traitorous thing.

"Your heart’s racing," Zade murmured. "Is that fear? Or something else?"

"Fear," I lied. "Definitely fear."

"Liar." He pulled back just enough to look down at me "You’re not afraid of me, Sophia. You’re afraid of how you feel when you’re near me."

"I don’t feel anything-"

"Don’t you?" He caught my hand, the one still clutching his jacket, and pressed it flat against his chest, over his heart. "Feel that? That’s what you do to me. Every time I see you. Every time I think about you."

His heartbeat was wild under my palm.

"Zade, please-"

"You’re so shy," he teased "It’s adorable”

Before I could respond, he lifted my hand to his lips and ran his tongue across my fingertips.

The sensation sent electricity shooting through me. My wolf whimpered with need, and I felt heat flood my face.
