Chapter 11: It's working

~Enzo POV~

Ivy whimpers in her sleep as she wiggles, trying to get more comfortable. I ease us down the bed further and carefully spin to lay her on her side, facing me. My hand reaches out to stroke the loose hair from her face and she moans, chasing the warmth of my hand by tilting her chin up. Her lips are right there, pouty and pink. Looking more tempting now that I know how they taste.

When the alarm goes off, she mumbles and groans, scrubbing her hands down her face before rubbing the sleepiness from her eyes and looking at me. I offer her a small smile, relishing the very rare moment where it gets to feel like she is really mine.

“I spoke with the Alpha last night,” she says, her voice a soft whisper.

“I know,” I admit.

“You followed? Did you follow me the entire way?” She asks, her eyes watching me closely.

“No.”

“Where did you go after you followed me?”

“I went to shower.” I give her a shrug and she eyes me suspiciously before crawling from the bed and moving to her dresser.
