The Alpha and His Contract Luna (Lauren) novel Chapter 65

I woke up feeling hot. It felt like I was buried in fire. My skin felt too tight. My heart was beating a little bit too fast and I was in a mood.

I got up from my bed, feeling slow and sluggish. It was on a weekend. A few days after my terrible encounter with Darren.

After taking a shower, I went downstairs for breakfast. Not really feeling like eating anything but knowing very well that I needed to. Walking towards the kitchen, everyone looked at me funny and that just made my mood plummet even more.

I took my breakfast and headed outside. Needing to be out in the open, breathing the fresh air. I just wanted to be alone for a few minutes. My plans are halted when I see Lily seated, drinking coffee on the outside deck. I joined her. Sighing in frustration.

“What’s got you titties in a twist?” she asked me, looking at me with amusement.

“I don’t know. I just feel out of sorts for some reason” I reply.

I scratched my skin. Every now and then. Almost as if I had a rash from an allergic reaction. My skin felt like it had tiny bugs crawling underneath it.

She nods her head. “You smell by the way”

I give her a death stare. My anger rising. “You did not just tell me that Lilly”

“I didn’t mean it in a bad way. I just meant that your scent is a bit different today than it was yesterday” she says, rising her hand up in surrender.

They had arrived yesterday with Micah. They were planning to stay for the weekend and we were supposed to go out tonight.

Micah and Sebastian had opened a new club exclusively for werewolves. We were supposed to check it out tonight. Given that the last time I went out it ended in disaster, I was looking forward to tonight.

“What do I smell like?” I ask curiously.

I haven’t noticed anything different with my scent. So I wondered what the hell she was talking about.

“Spicy, intoxicating” she replies with her eyes closed. Sniffing me. “I’m a woman and I can’t get enough of it”

I honestly didn’t know how to feel about that. It was so weird hearing that from Lilly. Usually people describe my scents as floral and sweet but never spicy.

“Are you sure?”

“One hundred percent sure”

“Maybe I’m coming up with something” I try to explain.

I remember the looks I got from the other pack member. Maybe this was the reason. The change in my scent. But why the hell would my scent change? It has never happened before.

“Sure…” she says, dragging the word out. Looking at me skeptically.

I shake my head. Pushing the matter to the back of my head. “About tonight, what time are we leaving?”

“Maybe nine.” She replies. “Oh, and I forgot to tell you, Micah said that he and Bash will be joining us”

I’ve been seeing Sebastian every day, mainly because of our training session. Which to my annoyance he never misses. He has been better though. More patient and understanding. It’s because of this, that I have improved.

“Yeah it’s okay” I tell her.

Bash had asked if he could join us. At first it was supposed to be just me and Lilly since Claire said she won’t be able to join us. He had asked in such a respectful way, without pushing or forcing his dominance. I was impressed at that and I couldn’t see any reason why he couldn’t come.

“Red, can I talk to you?”

Speak of the devil…

“Where are you?” I ask through our mind link.

“Office” comes his reply.

I frown in irritation. Am I the only one who gets irritated with one word answers? It always seems a bit rude to me.

“Lilly, I’ll talk to you later… Bash wants to see me in his office” I tell her, getting up.

“See you later then”

I give an okay before leaving. I get to Bash’s office, knock then enter. After getting in, I cross the room before falling on the chair. Feeling like my body wasn’t my own.
