บททั้งหมดของ Simply His: บทที่ 1 - บทที่ 10

*Caleb*I shifted myself in the car; every bump in the road making one or another of the injuries sting or bring back the pain. I was tired, the drugs they gave me to help cope the healing process worked well, but they made me feel like I could sleep for days."Alpha, we've arrived. The guards at the front say there is no one, except a human far on the other side.""Let's just get this over with," I said as I frown.Peyton was Alexei's son; or Alex as I call him, and he was the most painful loss in last night's battle. The stubborn pup wanted to help, but he should have listened to his father when he told him to stay back with the rest of the pack. When Agape, the wife of the rogue's alpha, found him barking at them, she smirked an evil soulless smile just before she snarled at him and in a matter of seconds, broke his neck with her maw. That bitch was going to get what was coming to her and her pack.Alex hadn't say a word since we heard that last quick cry, just before his life

*Meadow*He was silent for a moment before he started to get up, then he lost balance and fell to the floor, I jumped up and rushed to his side, my head was spinning, but I didn't care. I rested my hand on his back, and he shuddered. "Maybe I should call the nurse again? Are you ok?" I said, and he lifted his eyes to meet mine. Under the flames of the fire, I felt trapped in his deep dark gaze."I... I will be ok. You don't have to worry about me." He hesitated.I sat next to him and started to look around his bandage for any trace of blood that might indicate an open wound. The truth was, I really needed a distraction from his gaze, or I would lose my mind and breathe. I didn't notice he leaned closer to me and had his eyes closed. When I looked up at him, he was breathing heavy. "I should really call the nurse," I said, getting up to head to the door, but he held my wrist, and his eyes burned me. "I will be ok. I will call one of my men to take you back. I am sorry," Men? he had

*Meadow*He walked to the coffee table and picked up his plate, then brought it to me. He sat on the end of the bed and laid himself against the back post. He lifted both hands and locked them together at the back of his head taking a relaxed stance. His muscles were toned and perfect. He had a black shirt and dark gray sweatpants."I thought you might be hungry, since you refused to eat last night," His words brought my attention back to his eyes. Only then I looked at the plate on my lap and saw a neatly cut sandwich with a glass of juice.My tummy growled. I was starving. "Thank you, I guess I am hungry."He chuckled and waited for me to take a few bites, I was really nervous to have him watching me eat, but my hunger won.After a few more bites, he cleared his throat. "Do you mind if I let my curiosity speak for me?"I almost choked and took a long sip of the delicious juice before I got the courage to look at him again. I say this because I could really get lost in those poo

*Meadow*He led me through a corridor and then the central stair that took us to the front of the house. It was an enormous residence, with at least two floors on its grounds. He opened the door and made a gesture for me to walk out first. I almost giggled, he was such a gentleman, and my mother would have been drooling over him.I could finally admire close at hand the beautiful settings. The gardens were untamed, slightly cut here and there just to make it less wild but I could see how most of it was untouched. He led me through a path of rocks and dirt, and we finally arrived at a clearing between the trees. There I saw a blanket, several plates with fruits and salty treats next to my wine. I gasped and looked at him, he had a huge grin on his face. "I hope you don't mind," I was blushing and smiling from ear to ear.We both sat on the blanket and enjoyed a delightful evening. We talked about silly things, the weather, how tall should the grass be allowed to grow before it became

*Meadow*Monday came too quickly. I was still trying to wake up while I drank my 3rd cup of coffee at the boss's office and I was doing my best to ignore Gideon, my supervisor, in the staff meeting. He had been arguing how people had slowed down their 'production, ' and we were not meeting our standards. I just wanted to tell him people would actually work better without seeing his face staring at them constantly. I could not say that out loud, though, as it would be too bold of me after Friday's argument.Instead, I decided to think of a pair of dark eyes, and that thought made me blush instantly. I was thinking about our lunch yesterday, how we both were just carefree and relaxed. I've never felt him tense, or as if he was hiding something from me, he was only open and fun. Except for that moment when I caught him at his study wrecking his cellphone, he had been a gentleman with me. I could still smell his earthy cologne after we hugged each other when we said goodbye. I almost for
