I nodded my head. “She’s the closest I have.”

“No wonder I smelled you on her one time, and I asked her to bring me to you, and she brought me to that female Trish, who was…”

“Too smitten by you?” I giggled.

Trish had a crush on Riley, and she would often be roaming around the area where Riley was whenever she knew Riley would be visiting the pack.

“It was annoying. I thought I would finally meet you and instead, I met a female with a high-pitched voice who kept giggling in a high-pitched tone.”

I couldn’t help myself from laughing because he was describing Trish perfectly.

“But she’s a nice person.”

“Maybe I should match her up with my Beta. They can be annoying together.”

“Oh, my Goddess! No! Trish has a boyfriend.”

“And why the fuck was she eye-fucking me?”

“Because you’re handsome and sexy… But she can’t do that anymore. Not in my watch!”

“Good. You need to protect my virtue, baby. Females are harassing me most of the time.”

I was laughing so hard that I didn’t notice when we reached the door to our room. He opened it and slipped in before kicking the door closed.

“I have a big bike. I could take you riding one of these days.” He said this in a serious tone as he helped me to my feet.

“Do you like to ride bikes too? What else?” I walked toward the bathroom and checked if he had an extra toothbrush and found a new one.

I was already brushing my teeth when he came and stood beside me, reaching for his own toothbrush.

“Archery. I spent most of my free time with my bows and arrows.” He answered, his eyes fixed on mine in the mirror in front of us as we brushed our teeth.

I pulled the toothbrush from my mouth and before I asked him, “Can you teach me?”

He smiled and nodded his head. “Yes. I would like that. Do you know self-defense?”

I shook my head. “I never had the opportunity to learn.”

“I want you to learn then. I will train you as much as I can, but if I’m not around, I will have someone work with you. I want you to be able to defend yourself when I’m not around.”

I nodded my head as I spit out the bubbles in my mouth before gargling with water as I finished brushing my teeth.

I waited and watched as he finished his routine, letting my eyes wander over his chiseled jaw and his perfectly sculptured nose.

I still couldn’t believe this man wanted me here.

He turned to his side and faced me, winking at me before opening his mouth to speak. “Done checking me out?”

I rolled my eyes playfully at him before turning around and walking out of the bathroom toward the bed.

“We need to sleep,” I told him, my mouth yawning as I climbed onto the bed.

“Yes, my Luna needs to recharge because tomorrow night she will be using all her energy to keep up with her Alpha.”

“If… My Alpha could find out how to pleasure his Luna. Otherwise, we might just end up sleeping through the night.” I chuckled as I crawled towards the center of the bed.

I was only halfway when I felt hands snaking on my ankles and tugging them, making me drop on my stomach before I was dragged back to the end of the bed and flipped over on my back. Riley crawled onto the bed and caged my body between his elbows, which he rested on the mattress as his body hovered over mine.
