The Lunar Curse: A Second Chance With Alpha Draven novel Chapter 163

Chapter 163: A Waring to Wanda

Meredith.

Bumping into Dennis on the third-floor hallway on my way to check on Draven had sleep completely flying out of my heavy eyelids.

I had gone to find Draven with the intention to attend breakfast together, only to notice his room was locked.

But right as my disappointment was gnawing at me, I caught Dennis stepping out of his bedroom.

"Good morning!" I greeted with an instant smile growing on my lips.

"Wow!" Dennis eyes me up and down, and then shifts his gaze back to my face. "You made it?"

The smile on my face disappeared, my brows furrowing. "What... I don’t understand."

He shut his door as I walked up to him. Then we started walking towards the stairs together. We were going to be a few seconds late for breakfast.

"I didn’t think you would make it for breakfast today. I mean, I didn’t think you would live to see the lights of today."

I narrowed my gaze, trying to understand what he was getting at. A soft chuckle escaped his lips.

"My brother seemed to be mad last night that I thought he would have buried you at the same hour. But it seems... He..."

Dennis suddenly stopped walking and peered at me with intent.

"What are you doing?" I quickly leaned away from him, but he had already straightened his back and resumed his steps.

I followed immediately.

"It seems my brother actually did punish you, but not in the cruel way I thought."

Then I caught the ever-growing smirk at the corner of his lips and suddenly felt like slapping it away.

In the end, I slapped his arm, knowing what he had seen.

"Ouch!" He rubbed the spot I had hit, not fast enough to evade my attack. "What was that for?"

"You were not supposed to see or say anything." I glared at him as we walked down the stairs.

He chuckled as he let his hands fall to his sides. "Too bad my eyesight is good, and my tongue, unbridled. Next time, tell him not to leave a mark where it is obvious."

I ignored the heat creeping to my cheeks and glared at him one more time before lifting the collar of my shirt.

Because of how embarrassed I was, I couldn’t bring myself to ask him if the love bites left by his brother were properly covered now.

As we got to the second floor to take the stairs down to the ground floor, Dennis spoke again.

"I didn’t know your relationship had graduated to a whole new level."

He was more stating a fact than asking questions.

"I guess my brother has changed his mind," he said, causing me to lift a questioning brow.

He met my gaze briefly, but refused to explain.

Though I knew Draven hadn’t forced me to marry him for the sake of love, because that would be the worst ridiculous lie ever, still, I was curious to find out.

Could it be because he knows I was his mate?

As soon as the thought crossed my mind, I was reminded that I hadn’t remembered to ask Draven about it.

But then again, I would have to start explaining how I knew, and my wolf, Valmora doesn’t want me to reveal her presence to anyone yet.

"It’s a good thing to see your love finally sprout. Keep it up," Dennis said.

Because I had suddenly drifted into my own thoughts, I had no idea if he had made any sentences before that.

At least he hadn’t left straight for breakfast without me. freēwebnovel.com
