    **ying Tricks on Him**


    **Meredith**


    I took a deep breath, my heart racing in my chest like a wild bird trying to escape. Just as I was about to respond, Draven turned away, a teasing smirk dancing on his lips, leaving me momentarily speechless.


    “Come,” he urged again, his voice smooth andmanding, as if the tension between us had evaporated into thin air. “You need to have a breather before breakfast.”


    With that, he strode down the hall, his confidence palpable, while I struggled to regain myposure and follow in his wake.


    As we neared the end of the corridor, Draven slowed his pace, and when he pushed open the grand double doors, I felt my breath catch in my throat.


    The space beyond was nothing short of magnificent, an expansive room that could easily have amodated two smaller chambers side by side.


    Sunlight streamed through towering windows, illuminating the polished stone floors and the rich dark oak furniture that adorned the space.


    The bed, grand and imposing against the far wall, was so vast it seemed designed for a small army, easily big enough for three people to sleep without ever brushing against one another.


    “This is where you sleep?” I asked, my voice a curious mix of intrigue and disbelief.


    Draven responded with a nonchnt hum, his hands casually tucked into his pants pockets, exuding an air of rxed confidence.


    I stepped further into the room, my eyes roaming over the intricately carved posts of the bed, the soft pale linen sheets, and the luxurious dark furs that cascaded over its edge. Everything about the room spoke of quiet sophistication.


    It was so quintessentially him—neat, controlled, and expansive. Yet, in its vastness, it felt strangely hollow.


    Turning back to face him, I raised an eyebrow, a yful challenge in my tone. “Tell me,” I pressed, attempting to mask the amusement bubbling within me, “how is it that only you upy such arge bed? Don’t you ever feel… cold?”


    Draven paused, his gaze locking onto mine, a flicker of mischief igniting in his eyes as he recognized the teasing undertone in my voice.


    In a fluid motion, he closed the distance between us, each step deliberate and measured. When he reached me, his hand found its way to my waist, a gentle touch that sent a shiver down my spine.


    “Not in the past,” he murmured, his breath warm against my ear, sending tingles through me. “But now that I have you, it’s entirely possible to freeze to death sleeping all alone on it.”


    A softugh escaped my lips, surprised and genuine, breaking the tension that hung in the air.


    “You can’t be serious,” I replied, though my voice was lighter than I had intended, betraying my amusement.


    He tilted his head slightly, a faint smile ying at the corners of his mouth. “I am.”


    His thumb began to trace slow circles against my side as he leaned in closer, the space between us shrinking to the point of almost vanishing. The intent in his gaze was unmistakable; the air crackled with unspoken desire.


    But just before his lips could meet mine, I instinctively stepped back, shaking my head.


    “Not now,” I insisted, my tone firm. “I need a shower first.”


    His eyebrows arched in surprise, a hint of amusement dancing in his eyes. “A shower?”


    “Yes,” I affirmed, my resolve unwavering. “A long one. I want to wash away everything—the dirt, the blood, the lingering scent of Duskmoor.”


    At the mention of that name, I caught a flicker of something in his gaze—perhaps a shadow of difort—but he remained silent. Instead, he reached out, brushing his fingers gently against my jaw in a quiet acknowledgment before turning towards a door at the far end of the room.


    “This way,” he instructed, his tone steady.


    I followed him through a short passage until we arrived at the bathing chambers. The door swung open to reveal a spacious area adorned with smooth stone and gleaming silver fixtures, the air infused with the soothing aroma of herbs and warm steam.


    The bath was already filling, the gentle sound of water cascading echoed softly against the walls, creating a serene atmosphere.


    Draven nced back at me, his expression softening. “Before you’re finished,” he said, “the servants will havepleted bringing our things up from the convoy. Clothes, jewelry, everything we brought from Duskmoor. They will arrange them in the dressing room.”


    I nodded, a slight tightening in my chest at the word ‘our.’


    He lingered for a moment longer, his gaze warm and contemtive before he turned towards the door, leaving me in the tranquil solitude of the bathing chamber.


    Once he was gone, the quiet enveloped me, broken only by the soothing sound of water filling the bath.


    The weight of exhaustion settled heavily in my bones. I untied my cloak and let it fall to the floor, inhaling deeply as I tried to remember what peace felt like.


    Slowly, I sank into the bath, allowing the warm water to envelop me until it reached my shoulders. The heat seeped into my muscles, unwinding tension I hadn’t even realized I was holding onto.


    I leaned back against the edge of the tub, closing my eyes, but peace had a way of unearthing memories I would rather keep buried.


    My family.


    I knew that sooner orter, word of my return would reach them. I could almost envision their faces now—their disdain, the cold politeness that dripped from their words, and the smug, superior smiles of my sisters.


    With a deep inhale, I exhaled slowly, forcing those thoughts into the depths of my mind where they belonged.


    Though their opinions no longer held any power over me, I still dreaded the thought of facing them.


    Just then, I heard faint sounds beyond the bathing chamber—muted footsteps and the soft tter of hangers.


    The servants, undoubtedly, were busy arranging our belongings in the adjacent dressing room.


    Their voices floated through the door, barely audible yet filled with intrigue.


    “…He brought her here himself. Straight to the top floor.”


    “I didn’t believe it until I saw them walking in—holding hands.”


    “So, the Alpha’s truly epted her, then?”


    “I would say so; otherwise, how can we exin these changes?”


    I blinked, absorbing their words. There was no mockery this time—no derisiveughter, no cruel gossip. Just cautious wonder, as if they were grappling with a reality they had never envisioned.


    I listened a moment longer, letting their whispers wash over me before I turned my attention back to the bath.


    Time slipped by unnoticed, and then came a gentle knock at the door, followed by Draven’s familiar voice.


    “Meredith?”


    I turned my head slightly, unable to suppress a smile. “Yes?”


    There was a brief pause before his teasing tone broke through the silence. “Are you alright in there? The servants have finished their work and left already. You’ve been in there for quite a while.”


    I chuckled softly. “Maybe I needed it.”


    “Hmmm,” he mused, his voice yful. “In that case, I shoulde in and have my bath too.”


    My eyes widened in surprise, and an amused smirk crept onto my lips. “Come in, then,” I challenged him.


    A moment of silence followed, and then I heard the faint sound of the door handle turning, but nothing happened after that.


    “Ah, you locked the door,” Draven said, his voice dripping with mock suspicion.


    I bit back augh, feigning innocence. “Did I?”


    “Don’t y tricks on me, Meredith.”


    “Maybe it’s stuck,” I suggested, my tone light and airy.


    He huffed, a quiet, amused sound that sent warmth blooming in my chest.


    “Give me a second,” I said, a smile tugging at my lips.


    I stood, water cascading down my skin as I reached for the towel beside the bath.


    The cool air brushed against my damp skin, raising goosebumps along my arms as I dried my hair and wrapped the towel snugly around my body.


    Then, I slipped into a soft bathrobe, tying the sash securely at my waist.


    When I finally opened the door, Draven stood just outside, arms folded across his chest, an amused expression dancing on his face.


    His gaze swept over me, taking in the damp strands of hair that clung to my shoulders and the faint flush still warming my cheeks.


    I met his eyes, holding his gaze as he assessed me, before raising an eyebrow yfully. “Are you going to keep staring, Alpha?”


    The corner of his mouth curved into a smile. “If you keep looking like that, I just might.”


    I rolled my eyes, but I didn’t step away when he reached for me, the air between us thick with unspoken words and lingering tension.Conclusion
