Chapter 14 - Secrets In The Moonlight

"What exactly are you trying to do with me?" Luciano questioned in hoarse tones as he awoke from his sleep.He massaged his eyes and stared at me.

I froze in place, and he eventually pulled his foot from my panties. I swiftly grabbed them and tucked them behind my hands. I attempted to act normally and put on a fake smile.

"I need an answer! "What exactly are you doing down there? "he inquired. In a dominating tone.

"Uhmm, I - wa--s," i struggled to find words.

"Were you trying to touch me down there?" he asked, with a chuckle as he leaned towards me,his face was inch apart from mine. I felt heat in my whole body while my pu*sy was in touch with the cold floor.

I rolled my eyes as I was still sitting on the floor, staring at him.

"Nothing, my earrings, I dropped one!" I replied while pretending to search for it.

I attempted to avoid his suspicious gaze.

I straightened my dress and rose from the floor. I walked slowly and pretended nothing was wrong, but I felt nervous in front of him, and his gaze never left me.

His expression was a little puzzled.

"I am going to the bathroom!" He stated, and I gazed at him, stunned, while clutching my dress closely.

He looked at my expression and grimaced.

"Is everything alright?" You're acting oddly!" He inquired, perplexed.

"No! No! I'm alright; it was just a furious shake of my head and a false smile on my lips.

He shook his head in disappointment and walked over to the bathroom.

I pretended to change the bed sheets and was waiting for him to enter the bathroom soon so that i could put on my panties.

"Sorry about last night, I completely forgot that you will stay in my room." he said in low voice before entering the bathroom

As I gazed at him, my cheeks flushed as I remembered last night. I didn't respond to his apologies, and he went into the bathroom.

This man had such double standards he was the first to invite me into his room, and now he forgets. What a strange man! I pondered.

When I saw that everything was clear, I put on my panties back and then dried my hair. When I checked my phone, I discovered a message from Ava.

Why did she message me now? I opened the message and discovered numerous photos of James and Ava together. They were exchanging kisses. Some clicked in the workplace, which meant Ava had joined the company where I used to work with James, but now they both worked there. My heart ached as I stared at them, but my rage was directed at her and how shameless she was. She had no regrets after sleeping with James, and James was the filthy monster who cheated on me and told me it was a mistake. I had a feeling he was a liar. I had no idea, but tears flowed from my eyes not because I was sad but out of anger.

I needed to find a new job because I couldn't work there anymore. I had to speak with Alpha about this. It was difficult for me to forget James, I needed to keep myself occupied and move on in my life. So I started looking for companies.I heard the bathroom door knob turn as I was looking for them. I hurriedly wiped my tears away since I didn't want him to see me in this state. I took a big breath before speaking.

"Alpha, I need to talk to-" I came to a halt in the middle as I lifted my head to see.

Alina's POV-

Alpha, I need to talk to--" I came to a halt in the middle as I lifted my head to see.

He had a white towel wrapped around his waist, displaying just enough of his toned legs. My mouth dropped open at the sight.

I couldn't keep my gaze away from this rude man's magnificent body. My wolf howled in delight as I felt a peculiar sensation between my thighs.

He had broad shoulders and a chiseled chest having a tattoo on chest. It was a wolf's tattoo.

While Water droplets cling to his tanned skin, highlighting the definition of his muscles. His hair was damp and tousled, framing his strong jawline.

"Speak! You were saying something? He inquired, smirking.

"Yeah, I wanted to talk to you about something!" I finally spoke in a loud voice, While my heart was still pounding. "Continue," he remarked while wearing his white shirt.

"I want to continue my job!" I declared, and he looked at me, raising an eyebrow.

"See! I can't sit here all day doing nothing. It's absolutely uninteresting, and because of the contract, I can't compromise with my life. I spoke.

He darted towards me with lightning speed, using his special skills.

"But you don't need to!" he said as he stepped back and leaned on the desk.

"What do you mean, I don't need to do a job?" I growled at him.

"It's my choice and it was not written in the contract that I can't do a job!"

He hissed at me with a straight face. "I don't want any rumors around that Luna of the Blood

Moon Pack is doing a job because Alpha Luciano can't provide for her!"

His words stung me like a whip and I recoiled from him. Such a pathetic man with an orthodox thinking.

"Nobody will think like that and who cares? If I want to do it then I will do it and you are no one to refuse me." I snapped back and it triggered him.

"And the reality is that you are not my husband so stop bossing around me like you are my husband." I added and smirked at him.

He clenched his fists so hard that his knuckles turned white. I knew i had hit a nerve, but he deserved a taste of his own medicine.

"Alright! He said grinning.

I narrowed my eyes at him.He agreed? But I didn't care.I had won the battle.

I was about to speak when he added. "But in my company and in my office." He threw in casually.

I gasped and shook my head in disbelief.

"No way!" I exclaimed while rolling my eyes.

"That's the only choice, baby!" he said sweetly but I could hear the venom in his voice.

I bit my lips as I weighed my options.I didn't want any more drama. But I also couldn't tolerate him in the office too.

"Okay,I will agree but I have a condition!" I declared.

"Go on" he said curiously while he folded his arms over his chest.

"My condition is that we will keep our relationship private in front of the office members.I don't want any special treatment or want everyone to behave weirdly with me." I blunted out everything and he was listening to me intently while his hand stroked his chin.

Okay, then, done! In the office, we shall act normally" , he said, While stroking his chin

"Thank you!" I said, Rolling my eyes.

This guy was a pain in the ass. Why did he have to dispute every time and insist on doing things his way? "Okay, you can come to the office tomorrow." He stated.

"I still have one more demand!" I said.

He shut his eyes out of irritation.

"Speak up!" he exclaimed.

"I also want my friend to join me in the office." I said. He paused for a moment before speaking.

"She will work in another branch.Mikasa will be in charge of her. She can do it in his office because he need a personal helper. She can work as Mikasa's assistant." He explained.

He sensed my disappointment and spoke up.

"My other workplace is really near to ours. So you two can have lunch together and meet whenever you want." He spoke, and I felt much better after hearing him.

He checked time in his wrist watch and spoke.

"It's time for breakfast, are you ready?" He inquired, glancing up and down.

Yes, I am prepared." I responded.

"All right!" he exclaimed. We went downstairs for breakfast, and everyone gazed at us with with wide smiles on their face. Alpha had his hands wrapped around my waist.

"Good morning, Luna!" Mikasa replied with a bright smile on his face.

"Good morning, Mikasa!" I said with a warm smile.

"Good morning Alpha." Mikasa said as they both shook hands. Millie hugged me and sat down next to Mikasa. They were both always talking and had a strong bond. They'd become good friends.

Uncle Russ scowled at me as Alpha and I seated. He was nothing short of a creep.

After breakfast, l informed Millie that we would be working for Alpha's company, but in different branches. She was first sad, but her expression lighted up when she learned she would be Mikasa's personal assistant.

"Tell me the truth!" I taunted her, and she burst out laughing.

"What exactly are you talking about?" She tried to avoid answering my question.

"Don't pretend to be innocent.

I'm not a moron; I, too, have eyes.

"Can you tell me if you like him?" l asked narrowing my eyes.

"All right, no more lies. But I am not sure about my feelings.

Maybe I liked him as a friend." She replied with a blush.

"That is a difficult situation" I said as I frowned but eventually laugh on her.

"However, keep in mind that he is a werewolf and you are a human.It'll be better if you stay in the friend zone with him," I said.

"Hmm!" She said, and after having a good talk with her I walked away.

In the afternoon I was in the library reading a book when I received a message from an unknown number.

"I know you know the truth; just stand by us and help us defeat him."

I scowled at the message since I recognised him.
