Chapter 47 ALG USE LYN 82% 12:34 Caden’s POV POV This has been long overdue. I need to get this out of the way and get it over with. So that’s why I’m inside Alessia’s room and trying to get the CCTV camera off the wall. I bring out the pocket knife I brought along for this situation and start digging into it. The sound of the door opening has me flipping around and quickly storing the knife in my back pocket. What is she doing here? I thought she went out with Jake like she usually did after dinner. She’s not supposed to be here for at least another half an hour. That’s the only reason why I came into her room. Alessia closes her door behind her and stops walking immediately as she notices my presence in the center of the room. I simply stand there like a deer caught in the headlights, confused as to what to do next. My head runs a mile a minute, thinking of a good excuse to come up with to explain my presence in a room. A very good excuse that she’ll actually buy and that won’t make her suspicious. “What are you doing in here?” Her brows furrow together in confusion as she walks further into the room. “I came to ask if you want to go for a run.” It’s out there before I can take it back and Alessia’s beaming face lets me know that I made the right choice of words.
“Are you being serious?” She rushes over to my side and takes hold of my hand, sending a jolt up my hand. and I barely stop myself from ripping my hand out of her hold. “Do you really mean it?” I know that I’ve been strict with Alessia and only allowed her to go for a run when necessary but I never expected to get this reaction from her. Am I being too harsh on her? “Yes, I am. You deserve it.” Her skills have been improving drastically and what better excuse than to use that as a way out?
She blushes and tugs a piece of hair that has fallen over her face to behind her ears. “Thank you.” She whispers. And then her energetic self is back. “Let’s go now.” She rushes for the door and holds it open for me. My gaze goes over to the mirror where the CCTV camera is still hidden behind. I sigh, knowing that I’m going to need to find another time to get rid of it. Alessia isn’t going to be letting me out of her sight anytime soon. Picking my battles, I smile at her and follow her out of the room. She closes the door behind us and s k i p s down the stairs in front of me. I fight a losing battle with a smile that makes its way to my face. I’m definitely going to be inviting her for more runs if it makes her this excited. Everywhere is dark when we step out of the pack house but thanks to our heightened senses, we have no MBB M Chapter 47 problem with navigating our way around the dark woods. M 82 12:34 Alessia walks in front of me, already knowing the path that leads to the clearing where we have our runs. She stops there and turns to face me with her smile still intact. “I know I said that I’m going to be taking you for a run,” I start, ready to use the c r a p p y day to my advantage. “I was thinking that you could finally receive some lessons on fighting in wolf form.” The smile on her face disappears and she groans loudly, throwing her head back. na I shoot her a stern look and start stripping down. I place my clothes on a tree bark and wait for her to do the same.
She follows me and also strips down as well, no longer shying away like she did before. It’s beautiful to watch her get comfortable in her body. “We’re going to shift and I’m going to go over some techniques with you,” I tell her, bringing forth on my wolf presence. It’s going to be very difficult to communicate with her without any mind link joining us together but it’s a challenge that I’m willing to take on. I shift into Xavier and Alessia follows, shifting into Zuri. I put some distance between us and lower myself to the ground. Zuri is standing still, watching me to see what I come up with. Her gaze turns to something at the side and that’s when I attacks. I race towards her and Zuri doesn’t see me coming as my body slams into her, bringing her to the floor then I bare my teeth in her face. If I were a predator she would have been dead with my teeth in her neck. I roll off her and move away again. This time she keeps her eyes on me as I circle around her. I look for an opening and find it when she looks relaxed and least expecting an attack. I slam into her body, bringing her to the ground again but this time, I sink my teeth into her shoulder. Not hard enough to draw blood but enough to leave a mark. She whines and shakes me off her. Then her tongue slips out as she licks her injury and looks at me with a wounded look in her eyes. “Why did you hurt her? Xavier screams at me. ‘She needs to learn. Would you rather she gets hurt a little bit or die when she steps out of the pack?” My question quiets him down and he draws back, letting me have full reign again. I turn my gaze back to Alessia’s wolf who has stopped licking her wound and is now looking at me angryly! Good Maule MBB MProperty © NôvelDrama.Org.
