Tangled
Chapter 48
49 Ava: Selene’s Secret Vice
Selene’s presence helped me sleep like the dead. Waking in the morning in a room outside of the hospital is nicer than I want to admit to Clayton, after trying to refuse this apartment.
Stretching languidly, I take a moment to bask in the luxury of the king–sized bed, reveling in the silky sheets caressing my skin. A contented sigh escapes my lips as I roll onto my side, only to find myself face–to–face with Selene’s piercing blue gaze.
“Morning,” I murmur, reaching out to scratch behind
her ears.
Morning, pup. Her tail thumps against the mattress in greeting. Sleep well?
“Like a rock.” I glance around the lavish bedroom, my eyes lingering on the plush armchairs positioned near the floor–to–ceiling windows. “It’s going to take some getting used to, living in a place like this.”
You deserve nice things, Ava. Selene nuzzles my hand. Although, I must admit, I miss the simplicity of your old apartment.

49 Ava: Selene’s Secret Vice
Is it possible to feel nostalgia after only a week away? Because I do.
“Me too. We won’t be able to go back for a little while, right?”
Selene’s ears flatten against her head. Not until the alpha sends you home.
Pushing aside the melancholy, I swing my legs over the edge of the bed and stretch again, relishing the freedom of movement. No sore back or hips, and no tense neck after sleeping on near–flat pillows. “So, what’s on the agenda for today?”
Selene hops off the bed and trots toward the door. Well, you don’t have a job to go to anymore, so I suppose you could be a couch potato for once.
I can’t help but laugh at the mental image. “A couch potato? Really?”
Why not? She glances back at me with a wolfish grin. There’s a new shifter romance show that just started. We could binge–watch it together.
Raising an eyebrow, I follow her out of the bedroom and into the spacious living area. “A shifter romance
