Chapter 28: Chapter 29

Chapter 29 Prescott “Congratulations, man,” Caleb smirked, winking at me. “You're reeking of her and s*x.”

| gulped down the vodka straight from the bottle which burned my throat. | didn’t dare to face her after what I did to her. The moment | found tears in her eyes, my heart filled with regret. | shouldn’t have forced myself on her.

If | hadn’t seen Gabriel touching her waist, | wouldn’t have lost my control. | wanted to kill that bastard.

| had never forced myself on anyone. | was the most cold—hearted, devil, and ruthless Alpha but | wasn’t a repulsive wolf.

| went back to my apartment but didn’t go into my room. Instead, | slept the night away in another room and went to a training session in the morning right away after the cold shower.

“Alpha, the tycoon who was ready to invest in our new business wants to have a meeting with you,” Caleb informed me and |

punched the bag more furiously.

“Why are you taking your anger out on the poor punching bag?” My Beta asked, frowning. “You seem upset after the ceremony.”

“Ask Matilda to pack her bags and if she refuses, you'll pack her bags and make her come to the parking lot. I'll be waiting for her in my car,” | told him and left the gym.

| packed my bags and met my father to discuss Liam and rogues. The danger was still lurking around, it wasn’t over yet.

Alpha Sheldon wanted me to merge the Blood Moon pack and the Silver Claw pack. | didn’t know why he didn’t involve Matilda in the discussion since she was the Queen but | wouldn’t make any decision without consulting her.

| tapped the steering wheel of my car while waiting for her. Surprisingly, she walked toward me with a bag in her hand without any hesitation.

“Luna,” Caleb took her bag, put it into the trunk, and opened the door for her. She thanked him and | roared the engine back to life.

“You should have stopped me. | told you that my wolf would try to take over me,” | initiated the conversation She didn’t respond. | reached for her hand to hold it but she crossed her arms.

“Why did you agree to come with me?” | asked her, feeling frustrated.

“My Dad wants me to accompany you,” she answered icily, not looking at me.

Matilda took her earbuds out of her purse and started reading a book. She didn’t speak for once during the journey. When we reached the town, | took our bags out and showed her our room.

She snatched her bag and rushed inside the room next to mine.

“You can’t ignore me like this forever.” | grumbled, kicking the door.

“If ’m stuck with you forever, then, I’m afraid | will.” came her snarky reply | couldn't risk leaving her alone in my villa so | asked Caleb to arrange my meeting in the villa.

Dylan Kane was the youngest billionaire son of the Kane group. He owned multiple businesses and was popular in the town.

“| have heard a lot about you, Mr Black,” he offered me a small smile. In the human world, | was known by Chase Black.

The power and aura he exuded weren't ordinary. It had supernatural elements but | couldn't identify who he was.

“Likewise, Mr Kane,” | snatched my hand back after having a jolt of electricity run in my body.

“| prefer to meet the person whose business I’m investing in,” Dylan looked into my eyes a little too comfortably.

Who the hell are you was the first thing | wanted to ask him but Caleb had informed me how powerful man he was. | couldn't afford to mess with him because it would bring the limelight of the media on me.

“I'm ready to invest ten million dollars in your business,” he said, his pupils dilated as he gaped behind me.

| turned my head to see Matilda ambling toward us. | had to keep my beast from killing him for laying his eyes on my mate.

“But you didn’t even ask about my company or projects or plans for how I’m going to use your funds,” | squeezed my fists tightly together.

“| don’t need to know that. | can tell from a person’s demeanor if my funds are going to give me profit or loss,” his eyes still fixated on my mate.

Wed, 28 Feb “You woke up, wifey?” 1 seized her in my embrace and kissed her lips a little too hastily.

She hummed and smiled at me. “I’m famished. Where is the kitchen?”

“Your wife is pretty,” Dylan commented and | made her sit on my lap.

“Thank you,” she blushed. “Who are you?”

He smirked. “I’m Dylan Kane. I’m an investor in your husband’s business so we'll meet quite often from now on.” He stretched his arm for a handshake.

It took every ounce of me not to rip his eyes out for checking out my mate in front of 1. me.

“Nice to meet you, Dylan. I’m-” she started coughing.

‘Lucy Black. Don’t tell your real name, | told her immediately via mindlink.

“Lucy Black,” she finished after | patted her pack and gave her the glass of water.

He kissed the back of her hand and chatted with her for a while, ignoring my existence.

“I'll take my leave and the funds will be transferred into your account soon,” he stated firmly.

“No. The deal isn’t done yet. I'll decide which investor to choose,” | smirked. “I have many investors to meet and choose the one.

| texted Caleb to dig into his history and fix my meeting with the other investors. | didn’t have a good vibe with him to take his funds for my business.

Dylan was furious but hid it behind his fake smile and left.

“Get ready. We're leaving for dinner,” | spoke and she chuckled.

“You're crazy to think that I’ll come with you,” she rolled her eyes. | hated it when she did that.

“There is nothing in the kitchen. If you want to eat, you have to come with me,” | shrugged.

“What?” Her jaw dropped in shock. “I’m not getting ready. | just need to eat food in my comfortable clothes.”

She was wearing denim shorts paired with a tank top. “I love it,” | smirked, staring at her taut ni*ples.

“Pervert,” she muttered under her breath and ran inside her room.

Wed, 28 Feb Chapter 29 Matilda returned with a denim jacket, sneakers, and red lipstick. “Let’s go, now.”

| followed her out and opened the door for her. She closed it before opening it herself. “You can drop the act now. No one’s watching. | can open it for myself.”

We had the candlelight dinner in the best restaurant but she blew out all the candles to piss me off but | didn’t react to her childish move.

She ate everything on their menu and | watched her happily stuffing her stomach.

When we returned, | quickly got out of the car and threw her over my shoulders before. taking her into my room.

| pushed her onto the bed and her boobs bounced back, making my d*ck twitch.

“I'm sorry for losing control yesterday. Let me make it up to you, babe,” | said softly, framing her face in my hands.
