Read Luna on The Run – I Stole The Alpha’s Son Chapter 44 – Axton POV

Coming out of my room after showering and dressing, I find Elena putting the last touches on the dining table when the oven alarm.goes off. “I take it Tierney has left?” I ask her looking for the oven mitts.

“Yes, while you were showering,” Elena answers, coming over and nudging me aside with her hip as she reaches to the cupboard above the stove to retrieve the oven mitts. My eyes roam over her as she slips a mitt on her hand, her huge baby bump sticking out, and before I can stop myself, I reach out to touch it. She freezes, her entire body turning tense as I run my hand over the silk fabric of the dress, my hand smoothing over where I could just make out her belly button was popping out.

“I should get the hens out,” she says, making me lift my gaze to hers; I clear my throat.

“Sorry.” she steps away, pulling the oven door open, her hair falling over her shoulder, and she flicks it back as she pokes one of the hens with a skewer pulling it out. She grabs the other mitt tucked under her arm to slip it on when I take it from her.

“I’ll get it out. You’ll ruin your dress,” I tell her, taking them from her.

“I’ll fix the wine then,” she says when there is a knock on the door. Without thinking, she walks over to the door and yanks on it before remembering it is locked. And in return I also did not think as I was too wrapped in the memory of feeling her giant baby bump. I dig my hand into my pocket and retrieve the keys tossing them at her. “Blue one,” She catches them and I lean down, retrieving the hens out, only to freeze, realizing I just tossed the keys to her. I set them on the counter in panic as I hear the door open. I quickly race over to her.

“Hi, you must be Elena, the Alpha’s-” Stepping behind Elena, 1 place my hand on her side, I notice the way she tenses, yet her face gives nothing away. Picture perfect, and I could tell she was more than comfortable with these sorts of situations, natural, even though I could feel the tension in her back from me touching her.
