Contract With Alpha Logan

Chapter 168

Biancha POV

Lying down with Toren provided all the solace I needed in this world. He was so warm and huge that he wrapped me up in his arms and I instantly went off to sleep, his scent washing all over me.

I hadn’t slept so well all my life. A mattress was a luxury for me, and on top of it, sleeping with Toren soothed my senses. When I woke up, I stretched my body with a yawn, feeling fresh and rejuvenated. A smile spread on my lips and I rose from the bed. As I walked out of my room, I heard Aiden and Toren talking about something regarding species. Intrigued, I stopped at the door and leaned my ear against the wood.

“This book states the species that are extinct,” Aiden said.

A pause later, I heard shuffling of pages. “Man, the list is long!” Toren sighed.

“Yeah!” Aiden gritted, as if frustrated.

Why were they reading about extinct species? Finding it strange, I stepped out of my room and walked to where they were sitting. They were both surprised to see me. Toren closed the book immediately as he looked at me with wide eyes. A faint blush crept on his cheeks. “Biancha?”

“Hi!” I tucked a strand of my hair behind my ear, embarrassed that I had intruded on something important. “I’m sorry.” Turning around quickly, I muttered, “Sorry for intruding!”

“Hell, no!” Toren replied. “Come back. We could use your help.”

I turned back to look at him. As I glanced at Aiden, I found him pursing his lips. “Yeah, you can help us,” he murmured.

For the next two hours, all of us researched about the extinct species of Lore. “Why are we researching it?” I asked, feeling slightly irritated.

“Are you bored?” Toren asked.
