    “Probably why he was pushing so hard for us to take a vacation and not get involved in his affairs.” I


    said ignoring hisst part.


    “This whole thing feels off. I don’t think we made the impact we wanted to make.” Alec sighed and sat


    down beside me. This time, pulling me against him.


    “Tomorrow we need to look for the third tunnel. They need to be sealed offpletely.”


    “I agree. I have cameras watching in case someone tries to use them.” Alec pulled me onto hisp and


    stood up. He carried me to our bed and gently put me down before rolling over me to his side. “How do


    you feel?”


    “Sore but okay.” I said as I snuggled into his chest. His arms wrapped around me, holding me close to


    him. It was only then that I fully allowed my b*dy to rx against him. His hand started rubbing my back


    as I closed my eyes.


    “Close your eyes. Go to sleep, my love.” Alec whispered in my ear. That was all I needed to give into


    the darkness.


    The next morning, I we woke up to his phone vibrating. My entire b*dy wasying on top of him with my


    head on his chest. His arms were folded behind his head and mine were resting on either side of him.


    When his phone started ringing, I realized howfortable this position really was.


    Alec tried to move as little as possible and looking at the message he got. As much as I didn’t want to


    move, I sl*pped off of him so he could fully look at it.


    “Where are you going?” Alec grabbed my thigh with an arm, holding me from getting up.


    “Going to pee.” I said looking back at him. He nodded and let me go. My shoulders were feeling so


    much better. I was able to list them over my head with minor stiffness. I was so happy for my advanced


    wolf healing abilities.


    After peeing, I took my shirt off and looked at myself in the mirror. The bruising was still impressive but


    it was all green and yellow. Some spots even started fading away. Deciding hot water would make my


    shoulders and my entire b*dy feel better, I got in the shower. It was only a few seconds before I heard


    the


    bathroom door open.


    “Showering without me?” Alec said. His voice was thick with sleep still.


    “It was a spare of the moment decision. Figured the hot water would help loosen my muscles.”

    Alec sl*pped in behind me, instantly putting his hands on my hips. He turned me around so he could

    “That would be odd for a building that is supposeably a key money maker for them.” Jasper was


    frowning.


    “Was the information wrong?” I asked.


    “Dad never allowed me to have ess to it. I have no idea and I just epted what he told me.” Alec


    stood up and started walking around.


    “I wonder if my dad would know, or Colt.” I said as I looked at Jasper.


    “Possibly. It could just be that Alpha Marc had bad information.” Jasper yed devil’s advocate.


    “Who all knows about this?” Alec asked.


    “Just us three.” I said quickly. Alec tossed Jasper his phone.


    “Where is Emmy?”


    “She went with the rest of the pack to my dad’s pack. Just in case we were attacked here.” I said


    quietly.


    Alec nodded. He was looking behind us with his hands on his hips. I couldn’t tell if he was mad at me or


    not. “Jasper, why don’t you go to bed. We can pick this up in the morning.”


    Jasper and I shared a look before he stood up. “Alright.”


    Alec held out his hand for Jasper to shake before he followed him out. Shutting the door behind him,


    Alec locked it and rested his head against it. He was trying to control his anger but I couldn’t tell if it


    was at me


    or not. Material ? N?velDrama.Org.


    “I’m sorry if I overstepped.” I said quietly after Alec didn’te back to me.


    Alec pushed away from the wall and walked up to me. I kept my head held high as I wasn’t sorry I did


    it.” What if you were caught?”


    “Then I would push against him like I have done this entire time.” I said simply as Alec sat down on the


    other side of the couch. He was turned towards me but didn’t try to touch me.


    “We need to be smart about this moving forward. The fact that you asked that question to dad in our


    office means he knows we are suspicious of him. If he is hiding anything, he will be more likely to cover


    his tracts. If you were caught….” Alec shook his head and looked away.
