Chapter 39

My mouth opened but no words came. I’m surprised I didn’t fall out right then and there. I had all intentions on telling him everything, the truth, but he had completely caught me off guard.

Of course he smelled Acelin. How could I be so dumb to forget that he had the nose of a canine? He knew. Without me telling him, he knew. I had been so disrespectful and stupid to not even wash the sex off of me before I brought him over here.

A dark thought popped in my head; one I didn’t want to believe. Did Acelin do this intentionally? Before he seemed to be accepting and understanding about Adrian being in my life but he was pretty upset about me leaving and he knew I intended to meet with Adrian. Could this be some sick attempt of marking his territory, making sure Adrian knew exactly what we had been doing together?

I didn’t want to think that way, but Acelin was very smart and calculated. I found it hard to believe he would not have known Adrian would’ve picked his scent up immediately.
