Leila's POV.

I was still nervous around the Alpha, and talking to him wasn't necessarily on my wishlist.

I couldn't help but stay here in his bedroom, he actually helped me.

But speaking to him wasn't what I wanted to do immediately, though at some point, I ended up speaking to him.

I needed to tell him about the man who tried taking me.

He was very adamant that he didn't see the man but wanted him found. I thought he would get a glimpse, but I think the man also hid immediately when he saw the Alpha.

I left for the bathroom immediately the conversation began drifting from the man who attacked me. I could see his long sigh when he saw me.

The moment I stepped into the room and closed the door behind myself, I could smell him again, I thought he left. I was confused, but also relieved, so the tension dissipated.

It took us a few minutes of awkward silence to talk about anything else besides our situation, then the atmosphere shifted. It felt more comfortable with each passing second.
