chapter 22

•••

"You still have time for breakfast it isn't noon yet." I say to Alpha Casper as he enters the kitchen and plops down on a stool.

"Is there anything in particular you want me to make Casper?" Isabella asks as she carefully places a set of fine china plates on the counter.

He shrugs and Isabella continues, "You could make something for him, Can't you Odetta?"

I shake my head at Isabella and pick a pan, "You're talking to the wrong person." I chuckle and twirl the frying pan in my hand. "I burn water. I can't cook for shit."

"No way." She laugh, "I think I'll cook something up. I was going to do this dishes though."

"Oh don't worry about it. I can do them. You're pregnant and I can't let you stress yourself."

Her eyes widen and so do mine. "Pregnant? You're pregnant Isabella?"

I panic and hit his head hard with the frying pan in my hand. His head slumps forward and hits the counter.

"What the hell?" She gasped at the unconscious Alpha Casper.

"Why?" She whisper-yells with wide eyes. I swallow, not liking the dryness of my throat.

"I-I-I don't know." I look at the pan in my hand and drop it to the floor, "I guess i just just panicked—"

"you panicked? Why?" She exclaims as she rushes to his side and checks his pulse before letting out a sigh of relief, "He hasn't been eating well lately. Something could go wrong."

"I. am. so. sorry."

"How did you know I was pregnant? I'm not even showing yet."

"I'm so sorry but Javier told me about it but he said it's a secret and I've been keeping it that way, Just now was a slip of tongue. I promise, I'm not bad with keeping secrets."

She gives me a small smile, "It's okay. I understand how Javier can get." She looks at Alpha Casper, "And hopefully, he thinks this was just a dream."

"Woahh." Victor's eyes widen as he takes in Alpha Casper's unconscious form.

"I always knew you two would end up killing each other but not like this."

"It's not what you think. I panicked." I say.

He just nods and frowns, "I have to be the one to take him upstairs and damn is this guy heavy." He moves to Alpha Casper and starts trying to help him up.

"I'll help you." I spring into action when he notices the frying pan on the floor. I don't want him to figure out how.

We grunt on the way as we take alpha Casper to his room. The stairs are the hardest part of this and I'm thankful no one is here to see. I can only imagine how it would look to someone. Sebastian was out to see the woman from earlier. He told me that she's his mate, Anne. Javier is just taking his afternoon nap so no one hears or sees us dragging him into his room.

I gasp when we enter his room—correction, suite. We pass through the small sitting room and kitchenette and enter the first door to our right. I assume the room opposite this is the Luna's room. We drop him on his king sized bed which is covered in white sheets, comforter and duvet that are neatly arranged.

We stay and look at him for a while and he looks more like sleeping than unconscious now. "I do hope that you have a justified reason for using a frying pan to knock him out cold."

I clear my throat, "Like i said earlier, I panicked."

He laughs, "Knowing Casper, I'm sure he deserved it. He must have done or said something horrible."

Oh but this time, he didn't deserve it.

"You want to stay for a while? Just to stay and kerp an eye on him."

"Am I allowed to?" I asked considering the fact that this is an Alpha's suite.

"Considering that you're going to be our Luna one day—sure."

My eyes widen as I shake my head, "Not you too. You all are mistaken. Nothing is going to happen."

He just shakes his head slowly with a chuckle "You're the one mistaken odetta, you may not see it but I can see that you two are meant for each other. Everyone can see it. You can't deny that."

"Oh my God." I mumble and try not to blush at Victor's words and pull myself together. Why is everyone hell bent on wanting us together.

He chuckles and looks at me, "It's only a matter of time before you're decorated with his marks and tied to this bed or if you prefer to do it in the Luna's room. Don't be shy, it's gonna be yours one of these days."

"It's time for you to leave." A flustered me says as I push a laughing victor out of the room and out of the suite.

I shut the door and lean on it before taking deep calming breaths. "Fuck." I whisper and control myself.

His living quarters are exactly how I imagined them to be. Dark and gloomy looking.

I flop down on the green couch and sigh in content. I wiggled my butt around a bit and giggle at how warm and comfortable it made my butt feel.

I take the remote control from the coffee table and switch on the T.v. flipping through the channels before settling on a channel that was showing something that looked remotely interesting. I snuggled into the couch, making myself as comfortable as possible.

I hadn't realized I slept off until I woke up in a bed. I sighed at the softness of the bed and allowed my eyes to open half way. My eyes widened when I saw light blue sheets. My sheets had a floral pattern and it would have been better if I had woken up in alpha Casper's bed—or maybe not.

I bolt up right and look at the room. It is empty and as large as alpha casper's room with two doors. I quickly stand up and open the door slightly and seeing the familiar door to alpha Casper's room across the short hallway. I step out and walk to the sitting room where Alpha Casper sat watching whatever stupid sci-fi movie was playing with a cup of coffee in hand.

He glances at me and places his cup of coffee on the small coffee table beside the armchair that he was sitting on. "You're awake."

"I didn't notice." I say and he glares at me.

"Can we not do this now Odetta. I almost died because of you today."

I roll my eyes, "oh puh-lease, I just knocked you out cold with a frying pan." I say and he gave me a raised brow as I process my words, "It sounded better in my head.", I mumble.

"It really doesn't sound good either way."

"What time is it?" I asked as I perched on the arm of the couch opposite him.

"A little bit after five."

I put a hand to my chest, "what the fuck? The day's almost over." I look at him as he looked at the shooting scene on the t.v, "how long have you been up?"

"For the past two hours."

"And you couldn't wake me up? Besides, Shouldn't you be in bed?"

"Sorry doctor." He mocks and I glare at him with my arms crossed across my chest.

I scoff, "Well you can die for all I care."

"I don't think a few hours of sleep can be the reason I die." He laughs. "If there's any reason, It's you. You're probably going to send me to an early grave.

"Please forget about that."

The grin on his face is shark like and I feel my wolf run around, she likes it. "No."

"Suit yourself." I quickly turn away my gaze. I need to get out of here. Have you eaten since you woke up?" He nods at the cup of coffee in his hand.

I sigh, "Like actually food?"

"Hmm. A while ago." Well that's good I guess. Maybe I'll leave now.

"Now I know who to go to when I need sleep. My head might hurt but boy do I feel refreshed."

"You're welcome. I'll be glad to do that again."

"I don't know what kinky shit you two are discussing in there but please keep the sex to a minimal because a child is in the house."

I flash my middle finger to the door even though I know that victor can't see it, "Fuck you victor."

"That must be directed to your lover there, Casper."

I just shake my head and glance at Alpha Casper who is just sitting there unfazed. If Victor and Dakota have hounded me about our supposed future, I'm sure they've done the same to him. Isn't he embarrassed?

"Don't you feel weird about it?"

"Why? We both know it's not gonna happen."

My wolf whines at that. What the hell is her problem.

He looks at me and our meet, "Do you want me to feel something for you Odetta?" I swallow at the intensity of his eyes.

"No. I'm good." I wave away all this weird feelings. "And we need to talk."

"About what?"

"Javier and his powers and just—everything. I still feel like I don't understand what's going on."

He stills and stands up, "my office", he says and leads me into a room further inside his suite.
