Going out with him

There was silence between them as Logan drove silently on the road; the Alpha had previously intended to take her to his house but on a second thought, he decided to take her to a Hotel.

He needed to know her better before taking her to his house, what if she was a thief as well? He couldn’t risk anything going wrong in his house even though he lived alone, he would eventually have to explain to his father and that would be a big deal.

His father had just stepped down from the company a month back and handed him the responsibilities of the CEO, as well as the Position of Alpha.

His father wasn’t that old, he was in his mid sixties and still very healthy but he believed it was the right time to hand it over to his son.

Logan is now expected to make the Middle Aged man proud, he had to show him that he was capable of handling the responsibilities bestowed on him, only if he knew that his mate issues would arise less than one month later.

He had to keep this information away from his family until he was certain of her, he didn’t want to disappoint them in any way.

“We are here,” Logan broke the silence after blowing his horn in front of a Hotel gate.

“A Hotel?” She muttered with a look of surprise, it was like she expected to be taken somewhere else.

“You sound surprised, and familiar to this place as well,” he said with a little smiled and she scoffed 

“I know every hotel in this city, I am just surprised that you brought me to one, don’t you have a house?” She queried as he drove into the magnificent building.

“So you want to go to my house?” He asked with a mischievous smile. “You want to meet your mate’s family, don’t you?” He smirked

Her expression changed immediately to nervousness, she swallowed hard and looked away from him. “It’s not… it's not that, why… Why would I want to meet your family?” She stuttered. “I just thought you would be different from most men.”

Alpha Logan smiles as he was pleased to hear that; she did not see him like the rest of her customers after all.

“Well, I would have taken you home but you didn’t want to come with me as my mate, you were coming with me strictly for business and I can’t take a sex worker to my house,” he blurted

Maybe he shouldn’t have said that. Her countenance changed and she wore a long face, she appeared sad like she had been hurt by his words.

Does it pain her to be called a sex worker? Then why does she do the job?

Logan parked and they both came down from the car, he led her straight to the main door of the Hotel.

It was a five star hotel, very tall and magnificent, with shiny lights all over… with his enhanced senses, he could tell that there was a clubhouse on the left, and there was a drug dealer in the basement, selling his stuff to the wealthy.

He could hear the loud music and the voices of the people in the club, as well as the strong scent of hard drugs from below.

But that was not all that the Alpha sensed… he could also detect the presence of other creatures here, Werewolves and Vampires, demons as well; they were all in the party.

“Is this your first time here?” She asked him as she noticed his attention was off. They had already walked close to the receptionist but he wasn’t paying attention.

Logan stares at her and furrows his eyebrows. “You can read thoughts?” He asked in surprise.

“Oh,” she muttered and looked away. “Yes, my ancestors had a few witches in their lineages, I guess they passed over that ability to me, but I don’t always hear what you think, it’s only when a person is distracted.” She confessed 

He smiled. “A special breed of werewolves, interesting… I still don’t know your name,” he muttered as they arrived at the counter.

“Welcome to the royal presidential suites, How may I help you Sir?” The first female receptionist on the other side of the counter asked 

The lady looked at his mate and made an expression before turning back to him. Alpha Logan wondered if they knew each other… Well, she said she visited here regularly, so maybe the receptionist knew her.

“I need a room, the best that you have… I am staying for one night,” Logan replied

“Alright sir, our VIP lodge is a thousand dollars per night, would you like to see them first?” She asked and began to key in on her system.

It was a two faced monitor screen, one on her side and the other for the guest. She was about to show him samples of the rooms.

“No, that won’t be necessary, I want one,” he said and handed her his credit card.

“Alright sir, I will check this in and get you a key, please give me two minutes,” she requested.

“Alright…” he muttered and turned back to his mate, she had been silent the whole time. “So?” He queried.

“It’s Mona,” she replied softly. He could hear her heart racing as she spoke, she was nervous.

Logan was surprised at her name, he had expected something different. Perhaps parents no longer cared to choose wisely while naming their kids these days.

“Alright Sir, here is your room key, it’s on the second floor… would you need someone to take you there?” The receptionist asked in a sweet voice.

Logan’s mate noticed the receptionist’s hand come in contact with Logan’s as she handed him the key, she had done that on purpose. She never liked this girl for the several times she had been here and now she was flirting with her mate.

“No, we would find our way,” she chirped in and took the keys from Logan. “Let’s go,” she instructed and walked off.

Logan was surprised, he went after her immediately. Anyone who saw him running in his three thousand dollars suit might find it surprising, especially for a cultured young man like him.

“What was that about?” He asked as he caught up with her.

“Didn’t you see? She had her polished fingers all over you, flirt!” She cursed vehemently.

Logan was shocked, he noticed the receptionist holding onto his hand for a second longer but that wasn’t supposed to be a big deal, was it?

“Wait a minute, are you jealous?” He asked and she paused immediately. They both stood there, staring at each other in silence.

Logan could see the pain in her eyes, she was hurt to see another lady touch him in that manner, how much more about him who found her having sex with another man?

She sighed and headed to the Elevator without answering his question, he followed suit immediately. They both walked into the elevator and there was complete silence between them.

“So what would you like to eat?” Logan asked after they got into the room.

“Nothing, I am not hungry,” she said bluntly and dropped her hand bag on a counter, then she sat on the King Size bed.

The room was very wide and beautiful, the bed was large, it was covered with a white beautiful bedspread, and its edges were decorated with nice fragrant flowers.

There was a flat screen in it and high power AC, a chandelier as well in the middle. The view from the window was awesome.

Logan walked to the door on the left, he opened it and looked in. It was the toilet and bathroom, very neat with a nice smell. The room was up to his standard, he had made the right choice, at least with Bart’s recommendation.

He had not lodged here before but he had always heard his best friend recommend this place so he decided to give it a try today.

He turned around and walked back to Mona. She was still staring at her phone with a crumpled face.

“Hmm… okay, I am Logan Smith by the way, Alpha of the Crescent Moon Pack and CEO of Smith group of companies, we have our enterprises all over…”

“I don’t care,” she cut him short immediately.

He chuckled as it dawned on him that she was upset, did she really have the right to be mad at him? It was not like he touched that lady on purpose 

“Alright… why don’t you tell me about yourself then? Where do you come from? What about your family? Where do you stay?” He asked and sat close to her on the bed. He had taken off his suit already.

“There is nothing to tell, just leave me,” she muttered with a crumpled face.

He stared at her lips and smiled, she looked cute even when angry. “Alright then, I would just get some rest,” he replied and took off his shoes, then jumped on the bed.

She sat there and watched him with a look of surprise on her face as he lay down on the bed and turned his back to her. Was he really going to go to bed like that? He was just going to ignore her?
