LUCY.

Adan helped me out of the car, and my hands automatically tugged my coat closer to my body, as if the chilly night was making me feel cold, but the truth was, I was nervous to meet the Alpha’s family.

I knew all of this was pretend play, but I wanted them to like me. I had no idea why – maybe because I wanted the Alpha to have no reason not to like me, or simply because I wanted a family too.

We walked side by side up the steps after Adan gave his keys to the man who met us in the driveway and the one who drove his car somewhere. My hand moved, and

I clasped it around the Alpha’s hand, and he tilted his head to look at me with a face void of any emotions.

“I just want to have some support, or I might fall from the way my heart was racing fast from nervousness.” I reasoned myself out.

A smile curled on his lips as he squeezed my hand before raising a brow at me. You’re nervous to be around nice people, but you can defy, lie, and argue with the Alpha, who loves cutting off people’s body parts.”

I scrunched up my nose and held his forearm with my free hand before scooting my body closer to him. “You’ve been saving me from day one, so no, I’m not that afraid of you.”

He chuckled, but the moment we reached the front door, he tugged his hand away from my hold, and I thought for a second that he didn’t want his family to see us. this way. But instead, his arm snaked around my body and his hand ended on my waist as he pulled me back to his side. before he turned the door handle open.

“They’re here!” A female with long black hair exclaimed as she clasped her hands together on her chest as he looked at us. Now I knew where Adan got his dark blue eyes. She was as beautiful as her son.

Soon, a tall man with perfect posture and nicely brushed hair snaked his arm around her and pulled her closer to him as he smiled at me. “Look at that, it felt like an eternity, but finally Adan took home a female.”

Adan and I stopped a few feet away from them as he squeezed my waist. “Stop embarrassing me, Dad. Lucy might realize you’re using the same lines for all the females I introduce to you and Mom.”

His tone was so serious, that I slowly tilted my head to look at him, and a scowl was slowly forming on my face.
