บททั้งหมดของ Chasing His Luna (Book 1 in Black Water Series): บทที่ 41 - บทที่ 50

ChaseShe stopped just as we were heading out the door. “Hang on a sec. I just have to do something real quick.”, she said.“Everything ok?”, I asked.“Yeah. Everything’s fine.”, she said as she headed toward her rooms.I stood by the back door waiting for her when I smelled the sickly sweet odor of flowers. I turned around to find Harper standing there, just a little too close for my liking.“What?”, I demanded, annoyed at yet another interruption.“Listen, I realize I may have been a little…overbearing earlier.”, she began.I scoffed, a scowl in her direction earning me the satisfaction of seeing her shrink back, if only for a second. I could feel Havoc peeking through in anger.“What do you want, Harper?”, I asked, my patience growing shorter the longer she was in my presence.“I was just going to say sorry to your little friend, Chase.”I looked at her, pushing my aura out, just a little.“I mean, Your Royal Highness.”, she corrected herself, though it sounded as though she was fo

At the second floor landing, Harper watched them go further up, seething with jealousy. Why was he taking her to the third floor? Who is she? Harper intended to find out. No way was she giving up her chance to be queen and expand her dad’s influence and power, and in turn her own. Not to mention, him. She had been after the Lycan prince for some time, but her attempts at getting him in bed had never worked.Annalyse“Hey.”, I heard from a distance. I shifted to get more comfortable. I was having the best dream. In it, I was resting my head on Chase’s shoulder, running my hands down the ridges of his stomach, delighting in every cut of his abs. He had his hands in my hair, a soft groan escaping him as his muscles tensed under my touch. The sounds he made spurring me on as my hand grazed the top of his jeans, his button undone, my fingertips just sliding inside, provoking a hiss of need from him.My lips pressed against his throat as my leg climbed over his, his thigh now pressing in

I woke again as Chase and a man with kind eyes and a doctor’s bag walked in.“Hi”, I said, as they walked to me.“Lyse, this is Doctor Jamison. He’s going to take a look to see what can be done to speed your healing. Doctor Jamison, this is Lyse.”, Chase introduced.“Ma’am, it’s a pleasure to meet you.”, he regarded me with a smile and twinkle in his eyes.“Please, just Lyse. Ma’am makes me sound like I’m my mother or something.”, I grinned, and winced at the same time.He looked to Chase for the flash of a second and I noticed Chase giving him an almost imperceptible nod.“I’ve been filled in a bit, but I’d like to hear from you and see what we’re dealing with here.”, he said, unzipping his bag.“Well, uh, we went for a run tonight and everything was great. Until we got to the flower fields.”, I began, the doctor waiting patiently for me to continue.“I stopped, waiting, and then out of nowhere, a black wolf with the deepest red eyes I’ve ever seen came charging toward me. I ran back

ChaseI went back down the hall and knocked on Lyse’s door.“Come in”, she answered, sounding on the edge of tears.I opened the door and looked into beautiful ocean blue eyes swimming with unshed tears.“Are you ok? What can I do to help?”, I asked, hating to see her in so much pain. Havoc was ready to rip through my skin.“I feel like such a baby, Chase! It just hurts so bad. I hope the doctor will be back soon.”, she said, a single tear trailing down her cheek.I cupped the side of her face and wiped it away with my thumb.“It’s ok, Lyse. You’re not a baby. You’re in pain. And it looks painful. Do you want me to sit with you again?”, I asked, hoping to hold her and ease her pain.She looked at me, a pink flush creeping up her cheeks.“I do. But after earlier, it just feels a little awkward.”, she said, avoiding my gaze.Time to lay some of my cards out on the table.“Lyse, I’m attracted to you too.”, I blurted.Shock flitted through her eyes as they rose to meet mine.“You are? But

ChaseI walked back into Lyse’s suite with the poultice and doctor’s instructions.“Is it here?”, she asked me, her eyes begging for relief.“Yes. His instructions are to apply it and bandage it once tonight and twice tomorrow, fresh bandages each time. Do you want me to help?”, I asked.“Please. I’m not entirely sure that I can reach it all.”, she answered.“Ok. Do you think you could stand in the tub if I can get you there? I’d like to rinse it first.”, I told her.“I think so. Good thing that I never got my pants on after our run, huh?”, she said while raising her eyebrows at me.I cleared my throat and picked her up, carrying her to the bathtub.I stood her up and turned the water to luke warm as she leaned against me, doing her best to remain upright under her own power.“Sorry, Chase. I may have to lean against you a little bit.”, she said on a sigh.“It’s ok, Lyse. I don’t mind. Let’s see if we can get this rinsed.”, I said as I picked up a wash cloth and small pitcher.Her sha
