Beast Alpha and His Cursed Luna
Chapter 27: Stained fur

Chapter 27: Stained fur

VALENCIA’S POV

He worked hard. I sat there, watching him spread the documents on the bed one by one before he turned on the fan at low speed to dry them and clean the message I made.

Why was he doing all of this himself? He could just call a maid or housekeeper, right?

’Hey, watch out!’ I shouted to catch his attention as I watched the ink bottle that was rolling to the edge of the table, however, what came out of my mouth was just a ’meow!’

Seeing him busy picking up the documents and the ink bottle would fall on his head and stain his handsome face, I jumped from the bed and used my cat’s instincts to kick the bottle away.

Shadow looked up as I landed on his head like a fool with my tralala right in his face and my paws gripping his hair to keep myself from falling before he sighed when he looked at the ink bottle that splashed the wall.

"So now you are feeling a sense of responsibility and saving me some face?" He asked, picking me up again, and I noticed how his hands had been stained by the ink earlier.

"You must be hungry," He whispered before he went to the washroom.

I was tempted to run away, I swear I was, but then I stopped.

No. It wasn’t because of guilt or any compassion for the man.

It was because of the free food. And thus, I sat there like a good obedient cat.

He soon walked out of the washroom, dressed in nothing but a mere towel, making my heart skip a beat. He was quite muscular and powerful looking for a beta.

Honestly, if he hadn’t told me he was the beta, I would’ve guessed he was the alpha himself. Then again, an Alpha can’t be as soft as he acted with me even after suspecting I was involved with Valencia.

I shied my gaze away when I saw him holding one part of his towel, probably to take it off, making him chuckle, his smile and deep velvety voice, making me shy even more.

And I know if I had been in my human form, I would’ve turned completely red from embarrassment.

"Let’s see if you left me any good clothes to wear or if I need to borrow from my subordinates," he whispered.

’I didn’t damage all the clothes,’ I said, but then once again, what came out of my mouth was...

"Meow, meow, meowwww!"

Hearing my own voice, I looked down at my paws as he chuckled again.

"Yes, kitten, I can see that. You didn’t destroy all of my clothes," He mused as I kept my gaze at my paws, a little ashamed.

Seriously, how could he understand my words just like that without me even saying anything about them?

"You know, you remind me a lot about your boss, if she is your boss that is. She has this same zeal in her eyes like you, so expressive and innocently mischievous. No wonder you guys click together so much," He commented, and I turned around to look at him, quickly averting my gaze when I saw him wearing his pants over his shorts.

What can I say? Of course, he would find me and this cat the same. After all, we are the same person, a secret that was both a boon and a curse to me.

’Hey, you okay?’ Aurora asked me, and I realized my emotions were trying to take a negative turn again, making me sigh.

’I am fine,’ I said to her, and she nodded with an unconvinced gaze.

"Come on, you know I can’t wait for too long. This man is making me wait for food for so long. What is taking him so long to get dressed?" I scowled.

Aurora rolled her eyes at me.

’I seriously can’t be with you and your emotions,’ She said, and I grinned, making her smile.

"Let’s get you something to eat," He whispered before he walked to me and looked at me carefully.

"We need to get your paws cleaned first. I’ll do that at home," He said and grabbed a random towel before wrapping me in it.

Wait. It wasn’t a random towel! It was the same towel that he had used to wrap around his torso, his thing!!

Oh, my moon goddess!

’Oh my, moon goddess,’ Aurora mimicked me.

But why the hell was she saying it so sensually? Was she happy about such a thing?

’It’s cooling,’ She said defensively.

’Of course, it’s cooling. It’s wet and it was wrapped around his -’ I couldn’t complete my sentence.

’Stop acting like a virgin, Val,’ Aurora, my fake-wolf, commented as if that was the coolest thing to say to me, and I gawked at her.

Seriously? Of course, I would act like a virgin. I was one!

I tried to struggle in his arms, but the more I struggled, the tighter he held me in his arms, close to his chest.

With my paws on his face, I tried to push him away, but he held my paws between his hands before looking down at me.

"Behave," he whispered, his gaze from such a close distance making me conscious of our proximity and realize how intoxicating he smelt right after taking a shower.

He smells good all the time, quite appealing and mouth-watering I must say.

He took us back to the same house before placing me on the couch in the middle of the hall.

He went upstairs to some room and I took my time looking around.

It was a nice place. Modest and artistic at the same time.

Honestly, some parts of it were so beautiful that I was afraid of even walking towards them.

There was this picture in the room, it looked handmade. It had one man and one woman holding two boys in their hands.

Maybe it was here just because it was cute, or why would it be here? Shadow didn’t have any siblings, that much I collected already.

Then again, why did the younger kid look so much similar to Shadow?

Could it be something that happened to Shadow’s elder brother? Some kind of tragedy? Or was it his friend? There were so many things that I didn’t know about at all and for some reason, I was curious to know them all.

I padded my way towards a vase that was right under a sword that looked kind of ancient as if a family legacy thing. Was it the beta family sword that was being passed through generations and finally came into Shadow’s hands?

Why would he place such an important sword just like that? But on a serious note, who would want to steal a normal legacy sword?

I was about to touch the handle of the sword that looked like it was calling me towards itself. However, before I could touch the sword, I was lifted into the air and I mewed helplessly.

"No. It’s dangerous. I don’t want you to get hurt because you want to play Dora the Explorer," Shadow said before he placed the towel in his lap and sat me there.

"Give me your paws," he said, and I pressed my lips into a thin line before raising my paws towards him.

"It amazes me how perfectly you understand human language," He whispered, and I looked at his face before looking at his muscular and veiny hands that were treating my wounds so nicely.

"I can clean your paws like this, but what about your white fur? I don’t think the color will leave so soon," he said, and I raised my hands to look at my fur.

How the hell did my future get dirty? I wondered before pausing and glaring at the man.

"Meow!!" I hissed, feeling wronged.

It was because he held me with his stained hands.

As if he understood my glare once again, he smiled.

"I think we are even now? You destroyed my property and I stained your fur," he mused.

"Meow!!!" You wish! I wanted to scream before I jumped out of his hands and left the house in a fit of anger.

Free food my ass! He can take that food and shove it above his...

Huh... I saved him from becoming dirty because I knew the color wouldn’t come off easily but look at him staining my perfectly white fur. What if it doesn’t come out when I turn next time? It’s black too.

Uhh...

I ran towards the lake house that I shifted into before coming here.

Angela wasn’t happy about it, but was there really anything I could do?
