Rejected Luna: Untamed Desire Of The Lycan Alpha

Chapter 256: Road That Head Straight to Guilty Land

"You need to rest more." Killian caught her by the arms and helped her sit straight on the bed.

"I feel a bit groggy. And I am no longer sleepy; I need coffee," Inez told him. She pushed his hand away and tried to get up, only to pause and turn to look at the man. Conscious that she was butt naked, she hesitated to move. It wasn’t that she had any hang-ups about being naked—she was a shifter; she was used to taking her clothes off in front of others. Still, she didn’t want Killian to think that she was trying to seduce him or something of the sort. Because the man was the kind who would jump on her at the smallest chance.

And as much as she loved the fact that the man felt attracted to her, Inez truly couldn’t summon the energy to do the hanky-panky at the moment. She said to him, "You do realise that I am naked."

His eyes darkened with something, along with amusement. "There is nothing left for me to see. That train has already passed, and don’t worry, I am not going to pounce on you. As much as I would have loved to, I won’t." He flicked one brow and questioned, "Don’t tell me that you have suddenly gotten shy around me?"

She slipped out of bed and walked around it. Ignoring the heat and the weight of the gaze that was locked on her back, she went to the wardrobe sitting in the corner and pulled out a drawer. Even though the two of them had not moved in together in Killian’s lodge, she knew that the man had bought a few things for her and stacked them neatly in his wardrobe.
