The Heartless Alpha’s Beloved Luna

Chapter 368

Chapter 368

Avery's POV

As soon as Fiona and Gideon were gone, I released my grip on Sebastian's arm and slipped the ring off my finger.

"I'm so sorry, Sebastian." My face was aflame from what I had just done.

I handed him the ring.

"I didn't mean to blindside you like that.I sort of panicked and did the first thing I could think of." Sebastian didn't take the ring.

"It's okay.I'm glad you did it," he replied.

I looked up at him.

"You are?" He nodded, gently taking my fingers and curling them around the ring.

"I made that offer last night because I wanted to help you.You're welcome to take me up on it whenever you need or want." The tips of his ears reddened faintly."

Besides, the ring suits you.

Keep it.

" I didn't know what to say to that, but I did appreciate his generosity.Sebastian had already done so much for me and Bjorn; he'd taken us in, let us live in his house rent-free, and had protected us from Gideon.It was so much more than I ever expected or deserved.

"Well," I said, finally finding my voice, "thank you, Sebastian.Maybe it wouldn't be so bad for us to keep up the charade.Just until Fiona and Gideon are married and mated.Then I'll get out of your hair."

"If that's what you think is best," Sebastian said.

Pausing, he then added, "By the way, how about we go out tonight? I know a good place."

"Oh, I don't know if that's-"

"If we're seen there together, it'll make it more believable," he clarified.

"Besides, I could really use a drink.I was planning on going anyway." I hesitated, considering his offer.

Now that I thought of it, I had been awfully cooped up lately, always lamenting about some thing or another.

Hell, I'd been stressed for ten straight years, and had more than a few gray hairs to show for it.

Finally, I nodded.

"Okay.Let's go." Sebastian smiled.
