Greyson’s POV:I continued to watch as Jessy colored at the other end of my office that was used for meetings and a small smile played at my lips the more her little face scrunched up in concentration. The little girl currently had her tongue sticking out the side of her mouth as she continued to draw.She had refused to leave the office with her mother, claiming that she had to stay with her best friend or the mean lady could come take him away, I didn’t understand the most of her gibberish but from Freya’s replies I was able to garner this much.Freya had been ready to drag her out of the room if that was what would take to get her daughter to leave but when Jessy had turned tears filled eyes with pouting, wobbling lips in my direction, I knew I didn’t stand a chance. I had assured Freya that Jessy would come down once the meeting was done and that she was in safe hands. The way that my personal maid had bit her lips in thought and hesitated before leaving the room had hurt me in
Cuddling with Jessy during bedtime was the only sort of bonding my daughter and I used to have, back at our former pack. I was usually so busy and tired during the day that it wasn’t until night came and we were set to go to bed that I had any sort of contact with my child. Now things were different. Jessy was able to spend enough time with me during the day, we could do more, and we were now definitely bonding over a lot of other things but it did not change the fact that cuddling at bedtime was still our favorite thing to do. And at the moment, I reveled in burying my nose in my child’s hair, breathing in her scent and allowing it to calm me down while I held her tight in my arms. Not having Jessy by my side for the rest of the evening had made me more anxious than I thought I would ever be. And this time it was a different kind of anxious that I felt. I wasn’t worried that the Alpha or his Beta would try to hurt my child. I was worried that my child was getting too close to the
“Freya, I think those vegetables are diced enough now, you don’t need to completely murder them.” Christie said and when I raised my eyes to hers there was an amused glint in her eyes that also made me smile. “I’m just making sure.” I replied. “Of course. Are you okay?”“Yes I am, why?” I asked“You just look a little distracted and you keep blushing at intervals.” At these words, I blushed. Of course, Christie and her observant eyes would catch on to everything that happens around her. “Yeah just like that.” She teased and I laughed.“I don’t know what you’re taking about Christie. I forgot to get some spring onions, I’ll be right back.” I said quickly, rushing towards the kitchen door with the basket in my hands to avoid hearing her response just in case it was a tease again. I could hear her laughter echo even after I exited the kitchen and the sound made me smile. The last couple of days have been so wonderful, I felt like I was on a high. From the night that I had gone to th
Greyson’s POV:‘I wanted to be sure that you were interested in attending the festival before I actually spoke to him about it, but I’m sure there will be no problem.’ I heard what seemed to be the last part of Smith’s conversation with Freya and that stopped me in my tracks and caused me to raise my brows in interest. I moved down the stairs again, wanting to confirm the obvious. The moment that I was further down the stairs, enough to see the occupants in the living area properly, I paused at the sight of Jessy in Smith’s arms eating what looked like a cookie and two very separate emotions rushed through me. Jessy looked cute and adorable as always but it didn’t look like she belonged in my Beta’s arms and the sight of her in it sent my stomach churning. I could also see how closely to each other Smith and Freya were standing and that upset me even more. Somehow it felt like I didn’t have the right to be upset about anything that was going on in front of me but I could feel bot
I walked slowly to the Alpha’s room, hoping to buy myself some more time. I knew that the only reason he was asking to see me was to address what he had witnessed between Smith and myself in the living area and although I wasn’t sure the exact thing that he had to say about it, I was still very wary because of the look that painted his face. The door had been left open and the moment I stepped into the room to find the Alpha standing in the middle of the space with his arms folded, looking as intimidating as ever, my breath seized in my throat and I did my best to avoid eye contact with him. An unsettling tension hung in the air and the silence that surrounded us made me uncomfortable. I could also feel his eyes boring into my head and for a second I was tempted to meet his eyes. “So you’re just going to accept an invitation by anyone to leave the mansion, after I explicitly told you from the very start that under no circumstances are you allowed to leave?” He asked, his tone comm
The warmth around me came with an intoxicating scent and the feeling of comfort that surrounded my mind as I stirred awake was blissful. The Alpha’s large arms were wrapped around my middle and I was press tight against his body. I enjoyed the way that our bodies molded together, fitting almost like the right puzzle pieces. “For someone so small, you’re actually really warm.” The Alpha whispered into my neck, from where his head was buried and I giggled at the tickling feeling.Turning around in his arms, I came face to face with dark hair, intense grey eyes and dark moustache. He also had a small smile playing on his lips and the sight made me smile too. “You fall asleep too quickly, how are we supposed to go multiple rounds if you’re knocked out after the first.” He teased lightly and I blushed to the tip of my toes which in turn made him chuckle.A sound that warmed me.“Well you could try not knocking me out after the first round.” I blurted out and immediately regretted it, bu
The moment we were settled on the bed again and the food had been laid out in front of us. Alpha Greyson’s face remained on mine and he watched my every movement, from the moment I dug my fork into the food, even till the food made its way into my mouth. The glee on his face was similar to the one a child that had been given their favorite bar of chocolate had. Surprisingly, the moment the food came in contact with my tongue the burst of flavors was shocking and I couldn’t have been able to hold in my surprise even if I had tried. The moan that escaped my lips was already a dead giveaway that I was enjoying the food. “That good huh?” The Alpha was currently wiggling his brows in pride and I was enjoying the food too much to try to put a dent in his good mood by downplaying how good the food actually was. That did not seem to please the Alpha because in the next minute he was taking the plate out of my hands and sending a playful glare my way. “If you’re not going to admit that th
I hummed as I mixed the pancake batter in the bowl. It was still very early in the morning and since I had spent the night with the Alpha, I had to be up earlier than usual. One month into our ‘relationship’ and I was feeling happier than ever. It wasn’t anything official yet, in fact, I was still very much his personal maid and no one knew of the night time relationship that I shared with the Alpha including Christie but it was the most perfect thing for me.Especially since the morning where we had shared that little moment in the middle of the room. It felt like I had been on cloud nine since that moment and nothing could ever take it away from me. I had just poured in the last of the batter into the pan when two light but familiar steps were moving into the kitchen. “Good morning!” I chirped the moment Christie and Jessy walked into the kitchen. “Someone’s happy and glowing.” Christie commented, stealing a piece of pancake from the pile on the plate and sharing it between hers
