Chapter 39

Muren POV

We returned home after shopping. My mind was a whirlwind of emotions. I was exhausted and wanted to go back to my room and get some sleep, but Lurien insisted that I have dinner, When I refused, he said. "If you like, you can have dinner in your room."

1 rubbed the back of my neck and smiled. “That would be great. Saying that, I walked to my room and flopped on the bed and waited for Viv Remembering the events of the day. I let out a deep sigh. Sable, Joyce, Marion. I dragged myself to my feet and started to remove my dress when a knock on my door sounded, "Come in." I said lazily as I looked in the mirror of my dresser and removed earrings. Shock rippled through me when

I saw that the door opened and Lucien entered with a tray of food. "Alpha Lacien!" I squeaked and got up instantly.

Without tearing his gaze from me, he kicked close the door and sauntered toward me. "Dinner. For you."

A blush crept an my cheeks with every step he took toward me because all I could see was that the top two buttons of his shirt were now open and his tattoos were showing "Th-thank you. You can keep it there, I pointed to the table, mahle to tear my gaze from his tattoos.

He raised an eyebrow and my heart thundered in my chest. How could I ask him to do that? But fe placed the tray on the table and instead of leaving, sat on the couch next to it. He gestured at the food with his chin. "Come here and have it."

I hastily went to the couch, sat as far away as possible from him and quickly started gobbling the chicken salad, When he didn't say a word as I ate, 1 started squirming under his unreadable gaze. Was I looking tired? Did I have dark circles under my eyes? Or was it something else? I touched my face with my hands, and with a stuffed mouth asked, "severyingbopay!"

He cleared his throat. "Everything is okay" Then he muttered, "More than okay"

I frowned when he inhaled deeply, and sat back lazily with his arm thrown on the backrest, like he was enjoying the sight. Just then there was another knock on the door. "Who's there?" Lucien growled, not liking the intrusion.

The door opened and I saw Tarian with a set of documents. "Alpha?" he said and walked in without permission

"What are you doing here?" Lucien growled.

Tarian came to sit between us because that was the only place left. "Lady Auren has to attend some rituals," he said as he picked up garlic butter shrimp and ate it from my plate. Then he gave some documents to Lucien. "The Shaman has called her tomorrow morning. This is the schedule
