A Love Reawakened The Alpha’s Regret by Alphabetical B

Chapter 153

Harriette’s POV

I returned to the room and realized Ella was waiting for me. She was ready to leave. She was fully dressed and had a sling bag across her chest. She lifted her eyes to the door when I came in. I was sure that the sling bag contained her most valuable things.

“Is it time?” She asked.

I shook my head. “Not tonight,”

She stared at me for a while. I looked away but within a second, I looked back at her. I could swear that I saw a smirk on Ella’s face before she turned to change out of ther outfit.

I frowned.

It wasn’t possible, right? Whatever it was that I saw didn’t just happen, right?

“Whose clothes are those?” Ella pointed to the clothes I was wearing,

“No one’s,” I lied. “I just poked them up from the garbage can outside,”

She looked at me suspiciously before she got into bed and slept off.

Although I removed my clothes, I found it difficult to put them down. It was engulfed with Rowan’s scent and somehow, I didn’t hate that. I wore the sweat top back to sleep.

The events of that night ran through my head and I felt embarrassed, hot, and short of words at the same time. I couldn’t explain what I was feeling in between my thighs, but every time I closed my eyes to sleep, I felt this sensation that made my toes curl and made me feel as though I was back in that room, tangled up against Alpha Rowan while he kissed me senseless. If I sat in an interview room and was asked why I kissed him, I’d probably fail because I had no answer to that question.

Why did you do that, Harriette? You could’ve just walked away. What were you thinking? Are you stupid?

I had no other explanation other than, something usually pulled me to Alpha Rowan and when I was in that room, whatever it was became stronger than my control.

Mother would hate me for a century or more if she found out what I did tonight.

I turned over and over on my bed until it was five am in the morning. I didn’t sleep a wink at all. How was that even possible? I was always a heavy sleeper ever since I was a kid. Even though it was usually a dreamless sleep, still, I never had a problem with sleeping.
