Through The Eyes Of My Alpha

Chapter 16 

NADIA. 

“Goodnight, Riley. I will see you tomorrow.” I closed the door with a heavy heart and leaned m y back against it, closing my eyes as I let disappointment wash over me. 

I was hoping he would ask me to sleep in his room or if he could sleep in mine. But he didn‘t. He was just my mate. He was forced into this bond by the Goddess. But his heart certainly still belonged to someone. 

Andrea. I wonder what she looked like. Maybe I could find a picture of her somewhere here. 

Arrow snarled at me in my head and kept reminding me that I promised we would try to make the Alpha fall in love with us, but it wasn‘t even day one and I was already giving up. I ignored her. But my persistent wolf started flashing images of me and Riley curled up in bed, sleeping peacefully together. It wasn‘t lewd images, but definitely, enough to make my heart and my pussy clench. 

Arrow was right. I have two months to make my move. And if he rejected me tonight, he would probably forget it tomorrow. And I could start over again. I turned around, opened my door, and rushed outside, ready to walk towards his room when m y body froze in place. A few feet away from me was the Alpha, making his way towards my room. He also stopped in his tracks and stared at me. 

“Did you forget anything?” 

“Where are you going?” 

We blurted it out at the same time, although our expressions were two different things. Mine was embarrassed about being caught, while his face was showing that he was pissed off. 

Why? I had no idea.

 “Uhmmm...” My words got caught in my throat. I don‘t think it‘s a good idea to ask him if I could sleep in his room now that he looked pissed off. 

“Where are you going? Your laundry won‘t be done until later.”

 “I can‘t sleep. I mean, I don‘t think I can sleep... yet.” I bit my bottom lip, not knowing what to say more. 

And he didn‘t say anything either, but I saw his brow raised as if he was waiting for me to say more. 

So here I am, speaking with all the courage I could muster in order to open my mouth and finally say what I wanted. 

“I was about to go to your room. Maybe we can talk a...” The annoyance on his face was wiped off as his expression softened. He didn‘t let me finish my words, “Would you like to sleep in my room? I can sleep on the couch...” I nodded my head so eagerly that I felt my cheeks burn. 

A smile slowly crept across his face, and I couldn‘t stop my lips from mirroring his smile. 

“Come...” He extended a hand, and I rushed in front of him, too excited to be in his company again. I reached for him as he clasped our hands together and pulled us towards his room.

I couldn’t take off the smile from my lips even if I was biting my lower lip so hard already. And I was sure he could hear the loud thudding of my heart too.
