Chapter 0186 Harper rolled her eyes .


    Dont youdies have anything better to do ? She asked .


    Folding her arms across her chest and narrowing her eyes .


    Chester grinned .


    Now Harper , no need to be jealous , he said , nudging her shoulder .


    You know you are still my favorite .


    Im not jealous , she retorted in a growl as she turned to face him .


    But flirting while at work has always been frowned upon .


    Thats not what you were saying the other night , he said in a soft and breathy whisper , though the rest of us could hear him clearly .


    My eyes grew wide as I watched Harpers face turn different shades of pink and red .


    Had they slept together the other night ? I wondered what the lure was here … something certainly interesting was happening in front of my eyes and I was way too curious about it .


    We werent working , she said through her teeth .


    Ineed to run to the store .


    Ill be back .


    She turned on her heel and hurried out of the kitchen looking mortified .


    I turned to Chester who wasughing and shaking his head .


    She embarrasses so easily .


    I dont get why .


    It was only sex , he said , still shaking his head .


    It wasnt that big of a deal .


    I folded my arms across my chest and watched as he maneuvered his way around the kitchen , cooking in a delicate fashion .


    Maybe to you , it wasnt a big deal , I told him .


    But did you ever think that maybe it was a big deal to her ? He paused for a moment to look at me over his shoulders .


    Its not my fault she went back on her word , he said , shrugging .


    We said no strings attached .


    We were only scratching each others itch .


    Nothing more to it .


    Is that the kind of guy you are ? I asked him , raising my brows .


    The guy who has mindless sex that doesnt mean anything ? He corked an eyebrow up at me and put his hands on the counter , leaning so close to me that his lips would be on mine if he were to move another inch .


    Want to find out ? He asked , his voice dropping sultry .


    Just as I was about to lean back and away from him , the door mmed shut , making Chester step away from me by instinct .


    Chester , I didnt hire you to flirt and talk .


    I hired you to cook , Gavins voice boomed across the kitchen , sending a chill down my spine .


    Chester had amusement in his eyes , but he didnt argue with his boss .


    Hed be stupid to do so .


    Yes , Alpha , Chester said as he resumed cooking .


    I chuckled as Chester quickly started to make our breakfast and Gavin sat beside me .


    Hes harmless , I murmured .


    Gavin rolled his eyes .


    Hes a guy and he only has one thing on his mind .


    Be careful around him , he murmured in return .


    I raised my brows .


    Do you only have one thing on your mind too ? I asked him .


    He shot me a look and it made the smile drop from my face .


    I couldnt really read the expression on his face , and it made my stomach twist .


    He was contemting something as he studied my What exactly do you think this is ? He suddenly asked .


    Im sorry , what ? I asked in return .


    face .


    What do you think this is ? He repeated , but this time he motioned between the two of us .


    My cheeks burned at the question , and I had to look away from him ; I stared down at the counter .


    He spoke low enough that others in the kitchen hadnt heard , or if they had , they were pretending they hadnt .


    We are just having fun , I told him after a beat of silence .


    Right ? We are helping each other out and scratching an itch at the same time .


    He nodded thoughtfully .


    Right , he told me .


    So , I guess that answers your question .
