Rejected, Abused, I Fall for the Forbidden Alpha (by Riley Scott) novel Chapter 116

Chapter 116

Raven POV

“Hey, Aeress, have you seen Hades?” I frowned perplexed.

Aeress rolled her eyes. “He’s been out training all day. Took all his anger and frustrations out on the warriors. I think they were glad to see the back of him. Apparently, he was like a man possessed.”

She smirks knowingly. I try not to laugh out loud. This is exactly the type of reaction I was going for when it came to Hades. My plan was working, and I couldn’t be more satisfied.

“Shouldn’t I have come across him, though? I’ve been all through the pack house, even past his study,” I said and winked at her, “to tease him naturally and drive him crazy but there’s no sign of him at all now.”

“I’m pretty sure his anger has something to do with that. You’re everywhere he goes. Even when he’s outdoors, he glances towards the packhouse. Don’t think I don’t know you’ve been subtly placing yourself where he can catch a glimpse of you before quickly vanishing, you little minx,” she huffed out a laugh, her eyes sparkling with amusement.

“So, you know my game,” I smiled, “I guess somebody as clever as you was likely to figure it out.”

“I’m the champion of seduction tricks, baby,” she boasted and then laughed, “Seriously though, you should give the man a break. He’s starting to feel like he’s losing his mind,” she scoffed lightly, her words filled with laughter rather than anger.

“What’s more surprising is that Marissa has stayed away,” I mused, “she hasn’t even confronted me once.”

It was a little bit disappointing. I’d been prepared for a fight, for something to happen, but nothing. It was strange, I thought to myself, and a little unnerving I admitted.
