The Blonde Alpha

FORTY EIGHT

The only thing I wanted to do when I got back home was to have a hot shower. To be lost in my own world of steam and citrus shampoo.

I left Alec to deal with Lorenzo, watching as they pull him out of the car and to the basement as I slowly walked up the stairs to our room.

I drop my dress at the bedroom door, loosing bit of clothing as I enter the shower turning the tap sharply to the left .

Instantly the hot water caused steam to fill the bathroom.

I scrubbed all of the sweat and dirt of my body. My hair still had pieces of soot from the explosion, turning my red locks almost brown.

"Rojo?" Alec asks.

"Shower." I tell.

Alec enters the bathroom his hand tainted in red.

I stop the shower and slip on my robe towel. (Basically a robe made with towel material.)

I take another hand towel and dry my hair as Alec hoists himself up on the marble table.

"I hope you didn't kill him." I exclaim looking at his white shirt that had spots of blood and his knuckles that was healing.

"He will take wake up soon, don't worry."

I take my towel that I used to dry my hair and wet it under the shower before wiping the blood of Alec's hands.

He used his clean hand and placed a piece of my hair behind my hair.

"What?" I ask as he smiles down at me.

"Nothing, I'm just looking at you."

I could feel my toes curling , " stop it Alec."

"Can't i look at the women I love."

"When did you know you loved me." I ask.

He smiles, "shouldn't that be a secret I keep?"

"I'm curious." I reply.

"Curiosity, that killed a cat."

"Luckily I'm a werewolf." I claim.

He laughed, " I think the day I realized I was in love with you was the day after I left you in Spain and returned home. I grew so accustomed to you, your laugh became addicting. Your smile was my high. That day I saw you at my bedroom door I was ready to drop everything, to carry on being on the run with you. Or too beg the royals to let you go. Never did I imagine back then that you would be Queen and mine."

I smiled, " cheesy madman."

"And when did you fall in love with me?" He asked pulling me towards him and kissing my cheeks. " was it that first time you saw my abs."

"Im pretty sure it was the day you gave me a sip of apply juice."

He smiles and leans his forehead on mine.

"Alec." I whisper, knowing my next words were going to ruin the moment.

"You stink of rouge blood."

After blow drying my hair I walked to the kitchen, dismissing the kitchen staff, allowing them time off to spend with their families before walking into the kitchen.

I take out all the ingredients for a nice meal. One of the most ordinary things I could do before everything hit the fan.

"Rojo?" Alec's voice drifts in from the hallway as I put the lasagne into the oven.
