Sold AS The alpha King's Breeder

Chapter 82: Green with Jealousy

“Tell me, my friend, what can I do for you?” Luther smiled.

I had to hold back my scoff. Friend? The man kidnapped my dear Brook, cursed me, tried to kill Theo, and worked with Raymond to lead my pack to destruction. Just because he was polite right now didn’t mean there was a chance for us to be friends.

“Look,” I lifted my gaze and pointed to one bare spot of the flower bed. “Those little ones are all dried now, I don’t think I can revive them, but I think it would be good to get some more color in here, don’t you?”

“I agree, whatever makes you happy,” he commented.

I wanted to say that what made me happy was to let me go back to my pack, but I doubted he would go with that. So I continued, “I want to get some flower seeds to replant them today.”

He gestured for me to continue.

I brushed my hair away from my face and put it behind my ear. “I recognize some of them, they grow in the wild, but I assume I don’t have the freedom to leave this property on my own? So I wanted to ask if you could accompany me and take me outside to get some seeds.”

This time, he didn’t say anything immediately. He stared at me for a moment. His eyes bored into mine. I did my best to remain calm.

Luther was like Theo when it came to analyzing people. He noticed every single detail which made it hard to get anything past him.

I had to bring out my best acting skills here, which to be honest were less than stellar.

After a while, his smile returned. “Just that?”

“Yes, just that,” I assured him.

I couldn’t read his expression, but to lower his suspicion, I shrugged, “If that is too much of a problem, I understand. After all, I’m not really a friend, just a prisoner.”

Finally, he let out a chuckle. “It would be my honor to accompany you.”

“Really?” I clapped my hands and did my best to sound excited. “That’s wonderful! Where are we going? Is it far?”

“It’s in the valley. I know exactly where to go. My mother used to take me there.”

“I can’t wait!” I smiled. “Maybe we could get there faster if you shift and carry me on your back. What do you say?”

“That’s right, you can’t shift yet.”

I nodded, “My birthday isn’t for a little while.”

“I will carry you.”

Luther began to unbutton his shirt.

“What are you doing?” I turned around so I didn’t see his naked torso.

“I happen to like this shirt and I don’t want it to be ripped to shreds.” He let out a soft chuckle. “You know, as wolves, I thought you are used to nudity just like me. Why are you looking away?”

I felt the heat creep onto my cheeks. “Of course I know that. It’ s just that…”

I couldn’t find the words I wanted to say. It was just that if Theo was around, I didn’t want him to see me staring at another naked man, especially when that naked man was his enemy.

When I looked over my shoulder he had now stripped right down to his boxers and had an amused grin on his face.
