Novel & Cerita He's Right But He Shouldn't Say It

I paused, making sure he was really listening. “But hurting someone isn’t the right way to do that.” His gaze dropped, his small fingers curling into his shirt. “…So I was bad?” he asked quietly. My heart twisted. “No,” I said immediately, firmer this time. “You are not bad.” I reached out, gently steadying him. “You just made a mistake. And mistakes are how we learn to do better next time.” He looked up at me again, hesitant. “So… what should I do?”

I couldn't believe that he was literally saying that to my face and he wasn't even afraid that the guy could just walk up or come out at any moment. " You don't have the right to say that, you also don't know him personally so you don't have the right to judge him ". I said. I had to defend him,he was a guest in our house and the least we could make him do was to feel wanted and not hated.

He said a little more adamantly, shrugging nonchalantly as he did so. He had started to move toward me. A little bit menacingly. "Would that not be wrong?" I asked. I should have said something else. I should have said, "That makes me uncomfortable." I should have said, "I would not hide something from my friend." He was right next to me. I backed away but he kept close. "It would be wrong," he agreed, "And I know it is a cliché to say this but, at this moment, I think it is the perfect thing to say, but sometimes something very, very wrong can feel very, very right."

Once we were outside, he brought me forward, his gaze fixed on me. “You shouldn't have,” he said calmly. “I shouldn't have…what?” I asked, my eyes slightly squinted. “Uhm, you are not allowed to act formally to your superiors in public,” he said. “Oh…” I mouthed, a small smile etched on my face. “Sorry.” “Nevermind,” he replied. “There's a bigger issue.” He added. “Huh, what issue, did I do anything wrong?” I asked, worry etched on my face.

“Don’t do that.” “Do what?” I asked. “Make this sound like it’s anything more than what it is.” He said. “And what is it?” I asked. “A mistake.” he said flatly. I smiled. “Then why does it feel so right?” “Because that’s how bad decisions work,” he said. “Then let’s keep making them.” I said looking at him. He gave me a look that was somewhere between exasperation and desire. “You’re going to be the death of me.”

"Understanding it in practice is different." "Yes," I said. "It's very different." He glanced at me. Something in the glance — not the way he usually glanced at me, not the direct held gaze of the corner conversations. Something sideways and brief, the look of someone checking to see if they were being heard properly. "I shouldn't have said all that," he said. "Why not?" "Because it's—" He stopped. "Because you're the wrong person to say it to." I held the cold morning air in my lungs for a moment.

"It’s different today. All of it. Why?" Damn! That came out wrong. I shouldn’t have said that, but I already did.

Keeping my voice as neutral as possible. “I’m still an Alpha, Beta Sophia,” he stated. “Address me properly.” “No, thank you. Alphaaa.” My voice dripped with sarcasm as I gave him my back and walked away. I knew I just insulted Hunter in the worst possible way, but I was too exhausted to give a shit. Besides, this is MY pack territory! A second later, my world got flipped upside down-literally! The impact of Hunter’s shoulder into my stomach and the sudden view of his tastefully concealed ass brought a new perspective to my situation.

He wasn’t in a state to understand anything at that moment. “He is sick now; that’s why. I didn't, and please, you too, don’t talk about it in front of him,” I told her. “But you told me that what is wrong is wrong. And nothing can justify that. So, does that mean if you’re sick, then you can do the wrong things?”

I'm tired of walking on eggshells, but I can't shake off what he said. "You shouldn't walk home alone when it's dark." I force myself not to dwell on it too much, no matter how tempting. Annoying and rude as he is, it's clear that he has a sense of right and wrong, and that's what tonight has been all about.
