VALENCIA’S POV
A blush crept up my neck as I saw him standing sternly with a scowl.
As if even the bird was offended by his words, Happy glared at Maverick.
"Co on, get up. Don’t you want her to get better? She needs to be fed," Maverick stepped ahead with a bowl of soup.
He was indeed playing gas with my Happy, and I sighed when the bird looked at .
"Would you like to eat sothing?" I smiled before I looked at Dylan, who sighed and went outside.
He ca back with a piece of tofu, and I sliced a small part of it before extending it to the bird, who happily took it.
His eyes crinkled as if he was happy being fed like this, and I couldn’t help but shake my head at him.
"Now I shall eat too, right?" I said, and Happy nodded before he walked away from my face in the sa cartoony manner, making him chuckle as he turned to glare at .
I have noticed he doesn’t like it when I make fun of his walking style, but can it be controlled?
He flew away and went out the window, making sigh and look at the three n in the room.
"Valencia," Carl stepped ahead.
I looked at the man before rolling my eyes.
"I know you are sorry and ashad of what you said. Don’t worry; I am not angry at you," I said.
Carl looked at before nodding, but his gaze told he was far from satisfied. But it wasn’t like I had any choice either.
It wasn’t my fault that he was being like this. I shrugged, and it felt like Maverick could feel my emotions very well.
He walked to and sat in the chair before placing the tray of soup on a study table above my lap.
"Now eat, or I will feed you," Maverick said sternly, and I sighed.
I was going to eat anyway. I am too hungry at the mont to throw a tantrum.
With a sigh, I was about to take a spoonful of soup when my phone vibrated, and I looked at the device on the nightstand.
I picked up the phone, casually stuffed the spoon in my mouth, and nodded at him.
"It’s yummy," I told him, and he smiled at .
I looked at the unknown number that ssaged and opened it.
However, as soon as I read its contents, I froze for a few seconds.
My gaze inadvertently went straight to Dylan, who probably imdiately understood sothing was wrong.
"Who is it?" He asked, and I shook my head.
"It’s nothing. Just an ad. You tell how you got authorities to allow here?" I asked, not wanting to talk in front of Maverick.
’What does he want from us now?’ Aurora growled inside .
I knew she was furious. How could we forget the humiliation we suffered in that pack? How dare he ssage and ask what my plans are for the future and if I would stay near the Dark Callisto pack.
This kind of man...
I stuffed my mouth with another spoonful of soup when my phone vibrated again.
"Valencia, I need to talk to Dad. I placed my phone to charge. Can you lend yours?" Dylan asked, and I looked at the second ssage from the sa man before handing the phone to Dylan.
He walked out of the room.
I knew he was going to see who was ssaging , and I didn’t want to hide it either.
Once I was done eating, I shifted the bowl towards Maverick, who had been sitting there and looking at patiently.
Carl also walked out of the room, and I finally glanced at Maverick.
"How can you say those words? Do you have no sha?" I asked him.
He humd, standing from his place.
"Do you feel replenished?" He asked rather than answering my question, and I nodded my head.
"Good," he said, wiping my lips, and I was about to lick my lips when he bent and captured my lips.
I widened my eyes, knowing Dylan and Carl might walk in any minute.
What the hell was absolute? I gulped and placed my hands on his chest, trying my best to push him away.
However, like a large rock, he didn’t budge from his place, devouring my mouth like he had been hungry for a long ti.
"Mmm!" I moaned in displeasure when he bit my bottom lip.
Not knowing what else to do in the scenario, I opened my mouth to him, letting him enter my mouth to taste . He moaned in my mouth, his hands cupping my cheeks, making want to enjoy the kiss as much as he was, but I didn’t want Dylan to catch us like this, either.
I wasn’t ready for another lecture from him about how I was playing with fire and getting close to a man who hated my kind.
Without wasting another second, I licked his tongue before biting it, and he hissed, imdiately removing his lips from mine. His eyes held a fire in them, glaring at , and I glared back at the sa intensity.
"Don’t tell you fed so you could kiss and take advantage," I said, and he smirked at before licking his lips sensually.
"Oh baby, you have no idea what I have in mind. Don’t you think you are overdoing your heat? When is it coming?" Maverick smirked at , and I blushed at the thought.
He was right.
According to my calculations, my heat should’ve arrived long ago, but it was definitely delayed.
It also increased the risk of being in heat in a place where I wouldn’t be able to control it and it would be like a worst nightmare coming true.
"Shut up," I said and looked away.
However, Maverick was surely not going to let go of this matter.
"Shift with ," He went straight to the point, and I raised my brows.
Does he even know what he was saying? Even if he didn’t know I was a rogue, I was a she-wolf. What would people say about an alpha who is living with a she-wolf like this? And what about my reputation?
As if he knew what I was thinking, he imdiately smiled at .
"Let court you, Valencia," He said, dropping another bomb at .
I cleared my throat.
This wasn’t the right ti for it. Definitely not when Tyler was in the action of being stupid and on the verge of making want to attack his pack to kill him for sure.
With the alpha eting approaching, I didn’t want to take any risks. If I said yes to Maverick right now, he would ask to be his partner at the alpha eting, too. He also wanted to take to Tyler’s engagent.
"I think you are thinking a lot, Alpha Maverick. We can’t get into that kind of relationship," I said before looking away.
Maverick imdiately grabbed my chin and forced to look into his eyes.
"And why is that?" He asked, his gaze only darkening along with his aura.
"I am allergic to alphas," I said the most obvious thing that ca to my head, and he smirked.
Yes. Rather than getting angry at , he smirked before bending and pecking my cheeks.
"Live with for a week, and I promise you, Mitsuki, you will be demanding the presence of this alpha only," He said, a seductive hint in his words.
I was about to speak more when Dylan walked inside the room and looked between and Maverick.
"Is everything okay?" He asked, probably asking about the way Maverick was holding my chin in his grip.
"Yeah, everything is fine," I said before signaling him to co closer.
"Help up," I said, and he furrowed his brows before helping up.
"Where do you want to go?" He asked.
"Take for a bike ride," I looked at Dylan with hope, but as soon as I said those words, he imdiately let go of my hands, and I gasped, almost falling back.
But before I could, he held my waist right in ti, making wince.
"What the hell?" I snarled at the man, who shrugged.
"You can’t take a little blow to your abdon, and you want to go on a ride? This was a lesson for you," Dylan said, and I sighed.
I just wanted a reason to be alone with him. Of course, I knew I was in no position to go on any kind of ride. He wasn’t as intelligent as I thought.
"Dylan, I want to take Valencia to my apartnt," Maverick said again, and I looked at the guy, horrified.
Was he being for real? We just talked about it. How can he say those words?
