Chapter 121

We didn’t speak as we began to pile food onto our plate. But as I watched Alexander devour his breakfast, I couldn’t stop thinking about last night. He seemed so calm and collected now, just like his usual self. Meanwhile, last night had been a horrific experience.

Whatever Ben had put in that whatever must have been strong enough to knock down an Alpha.

Still, the image of him in that bathroom, vulnerable and alone, dealing with the after effects of the drug made my chest tighten.

“Olivia.” I jerked, realizing I’d been staring at my barely touched eggs for several minutes. “Are you all right? You seem… unsettled.”

“I’m fine,” I lied and forced myself to take a bite of eggs. They tasted like sand. But I forced it down my throat.

He studied me for a moment, then set down his fork. “I need to apologize.” His eyes met mine. There was guilt in them. “Last night, when I kissed you… I shouldn’t have done that. It was wrong of me, and I take full responsibility.”

“No.” I’d been trying to forget that had happened at all. And now, he’d brought the image to the forefront of my mind. “I don’t need your apology. It didn’t happen, alright? It was the drugs, some kind of delusion. So just forget about it, okay? Pretend it never happened, because that’s what I’m going to do.”

I couldn’t read Alexander’s expression. And I didn’t have time to, because my phone buzzed against the table. Gai’s name flashed across the screen. Grateful for the distraction, I grabbed it immediately.
