Chapter 85

Janet stayed in silence for a long moment.

Then she turned around to face Daran with a far–away expression.

“What do you think last night was?” she asked.

The muscle under Daran’s right eye twitched.

He sensed her aloofness.

Joy was quickly fading away from his face.

After a small pause, he tossed the question right back at her, “What do you think last night was then?”

“S*x,” she answered in a straightforward manner.

“And nothing else?”

“No.” She shrugged, “Maybe a little bit of worry. I was told that mating is a part of this healing process. So-”

Her chin fell into Daran’s iron grip.

“You were having s*x with me out of pity?!” he snapped, looking down at her with dark eyes.

Janet was not intimidated by him. She looked back at him calmly.

“Your wolf needed me. And you enjoyed the s*x. Why can’t we just leave it like that?” she said.

“Because I want more!”

Daran growled, sounding enraged and frustrated.

“I want you to come back and be my Luna. I want to claim you as mine, righteously! Seriously, Janet, we were wonderful last night. I can tell that you desire me, just like I desire you. So why can’t you come back?”

Janet breathed out a small sigh.

“Like I said, it was just s*x. I won’t deny that I enjoyed the s*x. But it doesn’t mean that I will be coming back to your side. I can enjoy that amazing s*x even with others-”

Daran clenched her jaw abruptly.

“DON’T,” he warned her dangerously.

Janet tilted her head and broke free from him.

“You get the drill,” she said.

Daran stood on his spot stiffly. Blood was oozing from the bandage on his chest. His hair was messy, and his eyes were bloodshot.

He looked like a defeated beast.
