Chapter 14 – Won’t Tolerate Disrespect.

“Men are respectable only as they respect.“– Ralph Waldo Emerson

“Get me out of this!”

“Why?” Jackie’s belly laughter echoes as she towers over my pitiful form. “He looks so comfortable!”

“Well, I’m not!” I retort..

Here I am. Lying on the kitchen floor, flat on my back, with a snoring Alpha on my front. With thick arms wrapped around my smaller frame and head heavy on my chest, I’m an unwilling prisoner. Now, I know what body pillows feel like, but I can’t say that I hate it too much. I admit this skyscraper on steroids looks peaceful. Like a sweet baby.

But it doesn’t change the fact that my bladder is begging for release!

Note to self: Neron is deep–conditioning alone from now on.

“Alright, bud. That’s enough.” I say, patting Neron’s bare back. “Wake up! Becoming a pillow is not my intended profession in life.”

“Zzzz…”

“He’s out cold!” I gasp in horror.

“The big bad Alpha must be so tired.” Galen teases as he dances around me like a giddy child. “I admit, this is

an adorable sight. Out of all the pillows in this home, he chose you!”

“I’m not a pillow,” I growl lowly. “But he can catch some Z’s back in his room.”

“Come on, Kiki! Admit it! You like this! You never allow Neron this close unless you have to.”

“I don’t like it!”

Liar.

“Sure. Like you didn’t enjoy washing his hair? You wouldn’t stop smiling, girl! And I didn’t miss the sounds you made too!” He playfully pokes my nose but retracts when I attempt to bite it. “Feisty!”

“I was just helping him,” I mutter softly. “It meant nothing.”
