Alpha's Nala

Chapter 7. Mating Season

Legaxy

The route going to the stage was a long one since the bar Harry owns was designed to resemble more of a fashion runway than that normal bar layout. So to keep the silence away, Harry and I conversed while walking the wooden pathway.

“So, I heard you have werewolf problems at the hotel nowadays. How is it?” He inquired, walking beside me, all serious now.

“It's good,,, I guess. A lot of drama to entertain us...” I stated, trying to sound amused though, I ended up sounding disturbed.

Harry noticed.

“Oh, how many episodes this time?” His face looked truly interested now, which is quite new since Harry never involves himself with Hotel issues.

Not unless it affects Ms. Dawn...

As the thought popped inside my head, my eyes snapped at Harry and stared at him funny. Then, without warning, my thoughts went right into analyzing the two's relationship.

I know, I may be assuming this, but I've seen them care for each other before.

They respect one another as well,

They even talk sincerely about anything and everything, and sometimes laugh like there's no tomorrow,

Occasionally, I get to see them go out on the weekends — guessing dinner dates,

They also go out to the movies,

And once, I did notice how intimate their gestures are. Like how Harry kisses Ms. Dawn's hand in greeting, or Ms. Dawn kissing Harry's cheek a goodbye...

Oh, gosh! Legaxy, stop! You sounded like a creepy stalker!

I scolded myself as I felt my cheeks warm up.

However, it does make me question the obvious...

Could they actually be...?

“Ah hello? Legaxy to earth, earth to Legaxy...” Harry snapped his fingers in front of my face a couple of times, trying to get my full attention.

I blinked before changing my curious glare into a more friendly gaze at him — still thinking about the two's relationship in the back of my mind.

“We have six, this week,” I quickly reply, blinking some more at a mad Harry.

As much as I'm fascinated by their strange closeness, I simply can't upset Harry right now. 

Like, really NOT upset him.

Why?

Because he's a WEREWOLF...

Seriously, I need to be as careful and as attentive as possible in communicating with him, and particularly, these are his brothers we're speaking about.

Yeah, his werewolf brothers which remind me...

Having to have observed the werewolf guests' behavior towards my colleagues this past few weeks, and having no explanation to help our company to address their violent moods, kinda made me wonder if I should open up with Harry regarding this matter.

Should I really?

Well, he is the only werewolf I know. So, it's safe to say that maybe telling him the truth would enlighten me about their intense 'mood swings' — ooooooor should I not?

A tempting idea, right?

But, I know deep down, it's worth a shot...
