Chapter 152: Live with him

VALENCIA’S POV

A blush crept up my neck as I saw him standing sternly with a scowl.

As if even the bird was offended by his words, Happy glared at Maverick.

"Come on, get up. Don’t you want her to get better? She needs to be fed," Maverick stepped ahead with a bowl of soup.

He was indeed playing games with my Happy, and I sighed when the bird looked at me.

"Would you like to eat something?" I smiled before I looked at Dylan, who sighed and went outside.

He came back with a piece of tofu, and I sliced a small part of it before extending it to the bird, who happily took it.

His eyes crinkled as if he was happy being fed like this, and I couldn’t help but shake my head at him.

"Now I shall eat too, right?" I said, and Happy nodded before he walked away from my face in the same cartoony manner, making him chuckle as he turned to glare at me.

I have noticed he doesn’t like it when I make fun of his walking style, but can it be controlled?

He flew away and went out the window, making me sigh and look at the three men in the room.

"Valencia," Carl stepped ahead.

I looked at the man before rolling my eyes.

"I know you are sorry and ashamed of what you said. Don’t worry; I am not angry at you," I said.

Carl looked at me before nodding, but his gaze told me he was far from satisfied. But it wasn’t like I had any choice either.

It wasn’t my fault that he was being like this. I shrugged, and it felt like Maverick could feel my emotions very well.

He walked to me and sat in the chair before placing the tray of soup on a study table above my lap.

"Now eat, or I will feed you," Maverick said sternly, and I sighed.

I was going to eat anyway. I am too hungry at the moment to throw a tantrum.

With a sigh, I was about to take a spoonful of soup when my phone vibrated, and I looked at the device on the nightstand.

I picked up the phone, casually stuffed the spoon in my mouth, and nodded at him.

"It’s yummy," I told him, and he smiled at me.

I looked at the unknown number that messaged me and opened it.

However, as soon as I read its contents, I froze for a few seconds.

My gaze inadvertently went straight to Dylan, who probably immediately understood something was wrong.

"Who is it?" He asked, and I shook my head.

"It’s nothing. Just an ad. You tell me how you got authorities to allow me here?" I asked, not wanting to talk in front of Maverick.

’What does he want from us now?’ Aurora growled inside me.

I knew she was furious. How could we forget the humiliation we suffered in that pack? How dare he message me and ask me what my plans are for the future and if I would stay near the Dark Callisto pack.

This kind of man...

I stuffed my mouth with another spoonful of soup when my phone vibrated again.

"Valencia, I need to talk to Dad. I placed my phone to charge. Can you lend me yours?" Dylan asked, and I looked at the second message from the same man before handing the phone to Dylan.

He walked out of the room.

I knew he was going to see who was messaging me, and I didn’t want to hide it either.

Once I was done eating, I shifted the bowl towards Maverick, who had been sitting there and looking at me patiently.

Carl also walked out of the room, and I finally glanced at Maverick.

"How can you say those words? Do you have no shame?" I asked him.

He hummed, standing from his place.

"Do you feel replenished?" He asked me rather than answering my question, and I nodded my head.

"Good," he said, wiping my lips, and I was about to lick my lips when he bent and captured my lips.

I widened my eyes, knowing Dylan and Carl might walk in any minute.

What the hell was absolute? I gulped and placed my hands on his chest, trying my best to push him away.

However, like a large rock, he didn’t budge from his place, devouring my mouth like he had been hungry for a long time.

"Mmm!" I moaned in displeasure when he bit my bottom lip.

Not knowing what else to do in the scenario, I opened my mouth to him, letting him enter my mouth to taste me. He moaned in my mouth, his hands cupping my cheeks, making me want to enjoy the kiss as much as he was, but I didn’t want Dylan to catch us like this, either.

I wasn’t ready for another lecture from him about how I was playing with fire and getting close to a man who hated my kind.

Without wasting another second, I licked his tongue before biting it, and he hissed, immediately removing his lips from mine. His eyes held a fire in them, glaring at me, and I glared back at the same intensity.

"Don’t tell me you fed me so you could kiss me and take advantage," I said, and he smirked at me before licking his lips sensually.

"Oh baby, you have no idea what I have in mind. Don’t you think you are overdoing your heat? When is it coming?" Maverick smirked at me, and I blushed at the thought.

He was right.

According to my calculations, my heat should’ve arrived long ago, but it was definitely delayed.

It also increased the risk of being in heat in a place where I wouldn’t be able to control it and it would be like a worst nightmare coming true.

"Shut up," I said and looked away.

However, Maverick was surely not going to let go of this matter.

"Shift with me," He went straight to the point, and I raised my brows.

Does he even know what he was saying? Even if he didn’t know I was a rogue, I was a she-wolf. What would people say about an alpha who is living with a she-wolf like this? And what about my reputation?

As if he knew what I was thinking, he immediately smiled at me.

"Let me court you, Valencia," He said, dropping another bomb at me.

I cleared my throat.

This wasn’t the right time for it. Definitely not when Tyler was in the action of being stupid and on the verge of making me want to attack his pack to kill him for sure.

With the alpha meeting approaching, I didn’t want to take any risks. If I said yes to Maverick right now, he would ask me to be his partner at the alpha meeting, too. He also wanted to take me to Tyler’s engagement.

"I think you are thinking a lot, Alpha Maverick. We can’t get into that kind of relationship," I said before looking away.

Maverick immediately grabbed my chin and forced me to look into his eyes.

"And why is that?" He asked, his gaze only darkening along with his aura.

"I am allergic to alphas," I said the most obvious thing that came to my head, and he smirked.

Yes. Rather than getting angry at me, he smirked before bending and pecking my cheeks.

"Live with me for a week, and I promise you, Mitsuki, you will be demanding the presence of this alpha only," He said, a seductive hint in his words.

I was about to speak more when Dylan walked inside the room and looked between me and Maverick.

"Is everything okay?" He asked, probably asking about the way Maverick was holding my chin in his grip.

"Yeah, everything is fine," I said before signaling him to come closer.

"Help me up," I said, and he furrowed his brows before helping me up.

"Where do you want to go?" He asked.

"Take me for a bike ride," I looked at Dylan with hope, but as soon as I said those words, he immediately let go of my hands, and I gasped, almost falling back.

But before I could, he held my waist right in time, making me wince.

"What the hell?" I snarled at the man, who shrugged.

"You can’t take a little blow to your abdomen, and you want to go on a ride? This was a lesson for you," Dylan said, and I sighed.

I just wanted a reason to be alone with him. Of course, I knew I was in no position to go on any kind of ride. He wasn’t as intelligent as I thought.

"Dylan, I want to take Valencia to my apartment," Maverick said again, and I looked at the guy, horrified.

Was he being for real? We just talked about it. How can he say those words?
