Her Unwanted Mate On The Throne

Chapter 106

Chapter 106 A flirting game.

“You must like it up there.” Joseph said with a bit of amusement in his tone. Doris carefully stepped off the dresser and smoothed out her clothes with as much dignity as she could muster under his gaze. “It’s quite a view.” Doris cleared her throat. “Did you forget something?”

“oh—“ Joseph held out a stack of clothes. “Sorry this took so long for them to be brought to you. I thought you’d like to change out of the ruined ones you came in with.”

Doris accepted the stack and brushed her fingers over the soft fabric. “Thank you, that’s very kind.”

“Oh–I was trying to reach my wolf. I still haven’t heard anything from her.” Doris said without missing a beat. How had she gotten so good at lying? William’s frown caught in her mind before she pushed it away.

Joseph nodded in understanding. “I heard she might be gone for quite a few days.”

“Do you know what they gave me? Will she be okay?” Doris asked as her hands tightened on the clothes in her grasp.

“I don’t know the name of it but it’s one of their experimental drugs. They’ve tested it on a lot of the rogues here so I have no doubt it worked on you. She should be perfectly fine when it all wears off.”

“Do you exactly know how long—“ “It lasts? No, unfortunately not exactly. A few days or more, it depends on how much they gave you.” Joseph said and stepped a little closer to her. Enzo’s taunt circled the back of her mind and now her eyes watched each of his movements he made around her.
