Chapter 307: Maverick’s frustration

VALENCIA’S POV

I woke up feeling groggy but strangely well-rested.

"You are awake, Luna," I heard a voice beside me, and I turned to look at the girl, who was probably a couple of years older than me.

Her timid and gentle gaze made me furrow my brows.

"I am. Sorry, but I don’t recognize you," I said.

The girl smiled and nodded.

She stood from her place before making a ninety-degree bow, her hair sprawling before her face, and I felt my lips twitching.

"I am Lovely, Luna. Our alpha has appointed me to attend to you as your caretaker from now on," the girl said, and I raised my brows.

Since when did I start needing a caretaker? Wasn’t Maverick going overboard?

"I am grateful, but your services are not needed here," I smiled, hoping she wouldn’t feel weird. Who would’ve thought my words would bring tears to her eyes?

I felt a little anxious immediately.

"Hey, what’s wrong?" I got up from the bed, and the girl shook her head.

"I am sorry, Luna. It might be because I am not too old to be a caretaker or look mature enough, but I can take all the responsibility. I know almost all the widely spoken languages and dishes. I will wash your laundry and clean the house. I can take you to walk, and when needed, you can spar with me because I am of beta rank...."

The girl started listing her capabilities and the more she spoke, the more I wondered why a girl like her was wasting her capabilities over such a measly role.

"It’s exactly because you are so talented that I can’t have you waste your life by being a caretaker, Lovely." I tried to make some sense of the girl, but as if she was adamant about it, she grabbed my hand and got on her knees.

She looked at me with puppy eyes, and I was about to ask her to stand when Maverick walked inside the room.

His brows furrowed at the sight.

"What is going on here?" His gaze was hard and cold, and it was hard to decipher if the harshness was directed at me or the girl.

For a second, I froze, realizing how weird this might be looking at him. I didn’t want him to misunderstand. I have seen plenty of novels where the male lead misunderstands his woman over someone else and thinks she is being rude by hurting people with low incomes.

Though Lovely wasn’t at fault and didn’t even open her mouth, I still wanted to explain to Maverick, and I was about to open my mouth when he interrupted me.

"I told you to take care of her little things while keeping a distance. Who asked you to touch her?" His cold words landed on Lovely, who shook a little and left my hand immediately.

I felt her nervousness seeping through her body as she looked anywhere but us.

"I...I am sorry," Lovely said.

I didn’t know why, but I have always seen Maverick treat his people well, and this was the first time I saw him frustrated by them.

I won’t lie and say it didn’t catch me off-guard.

"Watch your tone, Maverick. She is innocent," I said, siding with the girl who widened her eyes. Her expression changed from nervous to grateful immediately.

She looked at me as if I was her new savior while Maverick massaged his forehead in suppressed annoyance.

"Did you see this, baby? It’s been three hours since I have been dealing with this," Maverick said, his words confusing me even more while Lovely blushed as if she was caught doing something she wasn’t allowed to.

Nothing was making sense to me.

It was as if my savior had come. Shadow walked inside the room with another female, probably a doctor.

"You are awake, Luna," Shadow said before nodding at the doctor, who smiled and greeted me before taking my pulse.

I looked at Shadow and asked, "What is happening here?"

Shadow looked at his alpha, and I noticed how his lips twitched before he cleared his throat to mask his amusement.

"You see, Luna, our alpha had announced that he wanted to hire a caretaker for you, and nearly 200 females applied for the post. For three hours, our alpha has been going through all the applicants, and the females who want to try their best are stopping at nothing to give him a hard time," Shadow said.

I chuckled at his words, finally understanding why Maverick looked annoyed and frustrated and why such a talented woman was wasting her youth and talent by being my caretaker.

I shook my head. Once the doctor confirmed everything was fine with me and that the reason I slept so much was fatigue, I asked everyone to leave except Maverick.

I beckoned him to come closer, and the man smiled sheepishly before he walked to me without hesitation and kissed my lips.

"Mmm," I complained through the kiss before giving in and entangling my hands in his hair, kissing him back with equal passion.

When I called him close, this wasn’t what I had in mind, but was I going to push him away? Of course, not.

He sucked my lips like he was sucking honey out of a hive, licking and drinking me as if I was an elixir he was deprived of, his hands roaming on my body, making me feel hot.

His fingertips stopped below my bra, running along the lines of the strap, and I whimpered at the tease.

I thought he would continue, but to my surprise, he stopped and pulled away slightly, looking me in the eyes.

"You’re all I ever will need in my life to live happily. You are my love, my Mitsuki, my blue moon, my sole reason for happiness, but more than that, you are the beats of my heart," Maverick said with such sincerity that I couldn’t help but gasp, my mark itching slightly.

"It’s glowing," Maverick said, and I raised my eyebrows.

"I know," I whispered.

He shook his head at me before sitting with his back to me.

"You don’t understand, Mitsuki. You don’t get how much I love you. I don’t know how to open my heart and show how much I love you. I feel like I am not doing enough," Maverick said, and I chuckled.

I sat and hugged him from behind.

"Why are you acting like a girl in need of love during her period?" I asked him.

I saw him licking his lips before he turned his head and kissed my lips again.

"Let me bury myself in you. Let me mingle my soul with you, engrave in your body, suck me in your skin, Mitsuki," he whispered, hugging me tight, and I smiled at his need for love.

I hugged him back, sitting on his lap with my legs around him.

"Can I slip in? I won’t move. I just need to feel your warmth," Maverick whispered, and before I could allow him, he practically shredded our clothes, leaving us stark naked before he slipped his rock-hard dick into my already wet pussy, making me sit back on his lap.

The sudden invasion made me gasp, and I arched my back, my nipples grazing his chest, and a soft moan escaped my lips.

How could he say he wouldn’t move when with his dick filling me in? All I needed was for him to move and fill me with his liquid.

"What keeps bothering you, my love?" I asked him, and he hugged me tighter.

"You bother me," He said, not adding more to his sentence, and I sighed.

"Why do I bother you when I am insanely and madly in love with you? Why do I bother you when I am ready to fight the hell and heavens for your love now that you are mine?" I asked, and he smacked his lips before pulling away and looking at me with slight anger.

"I am the man in this relationship, Mitsuki. I am supposed to tell you these things," Maverick said.

I chuckled at his choice of words and hummed.

"You might be the man of the relationship, but don’t forget; I am your alpha," I whispered, and he hummed, burying his head into the crook of my neck. The slight movement made heat creep up my neck.

"By the way, the royals have released Matilda and sent her back to the pack because she is heavily pregnant," Maverick said.

I paused for a second, remembering Tyler’s tragic death and how the devil bore his face and hummed stiffly.

"I see," I sighed, not having more to say.

"What have you thought about the Hazel Moon Pack? The will was indeed made and submitted to the council. According to that, you must visit the pack and the council to announce your decision soon," Maverick reminded me.

I hummed, thinking about the sad memories that the pack had given me.

"I have a proposition that you can follow through on if you would like," Maverick said, and I was about to ask him what it was when his phone vibrated with an incoming call.

He picked up the call since it was from the leader of the patrol security, and the next words that I heard left me speechless.

"Sir, we have found thirty female dead bodies. They are not presentable," the guard said. I felt Maverick freezing under me. Heck, even I was shocked.
