The Alpha’s Little Rogue

Chapter 144

Raphael's POV I'm kissing her!

I'm fucking kissing Daphne and it's everything I imagined and more. So much more.

But it's cut short all too soon as Daphne pulls away with a gasp.

Her face is flushed and her lips are slightly parted as she stares at me with shock and something else that I can't pinpoint. I wait for the slap that I deserve but it doesn't come. She just keeps staring at me with a dazed look as she lifts a finger to her lips.

"I'm sorry for that." I wasn't, but I don't think that's what she wants to hear. "I'll leave now." I stand up from my seat and take off the towel I have around my waist, reaching for my clothes that are shrugged over the back of the chair. Daphne had put them in her dryer for them to dry -not that it will be of any use when I expect them to get wet as soon as I step out of this house.

I wear the jeans and zip them up then reach for my shirt.

"W-what are you doing?" Daphne asks.

I turn around to find her staring at me in confusion. She seems to be doing that a lot.

"I'm going to my pack," I reply, shrugging on my shirt and making my way to the door.

"Wait, she rushes her, a few seconds before her fingers close around my bicep. "It's still pouring outside. You don't have to leave.

Stay the night."
