Keira’s POV

My lips curled up into a satisfied smile as soon as I heard Matthias’ tone of approval beside me. It was faint, but there.

    Keira’s POV Hearing that single word set my heart racing. “M-Me?” My voice took on a disbelieving tone. “I have to admit,” Matthias spoke, his tone just as monotone and contained as it had been when he had explained the entire story of the surrogate. My throat tightened as I saw his gaze towards me take on a more assessing gaze, the cold, precise way a professional used to read others acted with a puzzle they wanted to solve. “My intentions for getting closer to you were not originally purely to get an heir from you.” I waited, because what else could I do? Deep down, my wolf was simultaneously excited and anxious. ‘Should we run? Is this going to put us in danger?’ my wolf continued to rant in my head through the mindlink and my fingers curled in on themselves, forming loosely held fists.

I had been rushing to have another shower and dress up before dinner to be a good enough hostess. After all, the presentation mattered. However I had only just gotten my underwear on when the knock on the door came. Throwing on the silk lounge robe also did very little. “It seems I have disturbed you,” I heard Matthias say, and I couldn’t even bear to look at him. I quickly turned to find something else, anything else at this point to cover myself with but suddenly my wrist was seized and he pulled me backwards. I nearly lost my footing as my back met the wall and his shadow fell over me. Damn. My breaths hitched and I looked up at him, fighting to keep myself from doing or saying anything that would give up my true feelings. Do not be flustered, I told myself over and over again with effort, and only after a second did I finally speak. “I was just dressing
