The Alpha's Private Dancer のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 31 - チャプター 40

The food was delicious, though it was more than I usually allowed myself to eat. But, I truly enjoyed every last bit of it. I have to say I was secretly glad that Mason had decided to convince me to order a burger now instead of the salad; because as much as I don’t mind salad, I don’t think it would have lived up to the burger…“You want another coffee?” Mason looked across the table at me as I placed my cutlery onto my plate. I felt so full now, I think I was ready to fall asleep!The meal with him had been surprisingly enjoyable. We chatted so leisurely as we ate, and laughed so much as we joked, and he told me about his friends. It seemed they were all incredibly close, and I loved hearing the many tales he had to tell of their time together. The time passed so quickly. But I didn’t know if agreeing to another coffee seemed too eager. I did not want to give him the wrong impression. I had literally spent the majority of my day with this man. A man that only a matter of days ago wa

I returned home to the apartment as quickly as I could, ensuring to take a couple of diversions in case I was being followed. I know I am beyond crazy. Likely overthinking. But, with a crazed ex on my tail, and having been chased out of a restaurant by a guy I ran out on, I think today, more than ever, my mind over-running may be more than valid. And I was not ready to risk my safety. Ever since I had been told that Dalton had reappeared, I had been taking diversions on my way to my new home, just to be on the safe side.I couldn't help but think back to the mess tonight had turned into; only coming to the conclusion that I should have done the sensible thing and never listened to Noushka. I should never have been sweet talked into going to dinner with Mason. No matter how handsome or charming he may be. He was not someone I needed to be getting involved with right now. In doing so, I had landed myself in an awkward situation. But it is so damn hard to say no to him! The way he looke

I loved my pack, of course I did. I was the Alpha, after all. Yet today, I had been reluctant to head home. Reluctant to leave town with the situation unresolved with Gianna, but no way of fixing it. So, returning home seemed the only thing I could do, with the plan to bury my head in paperwork. I walked back into the packhouse only to walk straight into Levi. A knowing smirk upon his face. “Oh, so you are alive then?” he said accusingly. “We were about to send a search party out for you.”I rolled my eyes at my friend. He was cheeky fuck. It wasn’t like I hadn’t let him know I was headed out. I had literally asked him if he was okay to cover duties for me. “You knew I had stuff to do.”“Dancers to chat up, you mean?” he said with a grin, and I looked at him with a frown.“What gave you that idea? I said I was out on business.”Levi chuckled. The expression upon his face said so much without saying a word. My friend was an ass. “The business of trying to get that dancer into your be

Sitting in my office with a stack of paperwork to deal with was far from ideal when my mind was definitely on other things. I had not slept well, and the excessive amounts of coffee I had drunk only added to the unsettled sensation pulsing through my body.Levi had chosen to come and irritate me for the past hour, and I didn’t know whether it was a blessing or a hindrance right now, as he was most certainly not helping me with my workload. And his incessant wittering was beginning to give me a headache.“Do you think Jasmine would agree to…” he began.Jasmine was his mate, and I really did not want to imagine where this conversation could be headed, because Levi truly had no filters, and was more than willing to discuss all aspects of his life with me. “Dude, I do not want to know what Jas will or will not consent to. She is your mate, you go and ask her.” I interrupted him, earning myself a knowing grin, telling me my guess had likely been right on the money.“I am not sure why your

I had not been able to shake the fact that it was likely Mason’s friend who had been standing right behind Tavi and me in the queue in the coffee shop, and more than likely listening in to our conversation. I am sure that was who he was. I had thought I recognized his face the moment he walked into the coffee shop. But, while his face looked vaguely familiar, I had been unable to place it, because the night I had seen him my main focus had been Mason. But, the more I thought of it, I was sure it was Mason's friend. And, I was more and more sure he had heard more than I would have wanted him to. No, I think it was almost a certainty that he was listening in, considering he almost choked at Tavi's inappropriateness.My mind had been distracted all the way through my shift, unable to help myself but ponder whether his friend would have told Mason what he had heard. And when that wasn’t on my mind, my eyes were back and forth to the door, wondering why Mason hadn’t decided to come and vi
