Alexis POV

For once in my life, I found myself in my room waiting for the comfort of a man. My man… We have both opened up to each other about our lives before meeting each other. I told him things that I hadn’t even shared with Chanelle. It’s a shame that with all those pleasant thoughts coursing through my mind, the only emotion that kept coming back to me was anger.

Why would he just leave, and not tell me where he is? I can’t even get through to his mindlink.

I was laying in the bed with my back to the window when I finally hear him come in.

Xavier walked straight past me and into the shower. I know he knows I'm wide awake. And I know he knows just how pissed off I am. I won't yell though... I usually would but this requires a different approach. Instead I will remain calm. He can tell me how much or little he likes and I simply won't pry any further.

That's the worst thing my mom could do to me.

When I did something wrong and I was dying for her to ask me and punish me and she didn't... It would take me days to realize that in actuality, she hadn't planned on punishing me at all and in fact, by my walking on eggshells around her out of sheer panic, I had punished myself on her behalf. There was that and the dreaded look. Whenever I got 'the look' I knew I was in immediate danger of grievous bodily harm for something.

Another of the hardest parts was trying to find out what it is I had done.

He came back into the room after having dried himself off, slipping on a fresh pair of boxers and sitting on the chair opposite the bed pretending to read. I had turned to face him and caught his glances at me. In fact, he paid more attention to me than the crisp paper his fingers held.

See? And I hadn't even done anything yet.

I decided to test the waters a little by shooting him a glare and turning my back to him. His face dropped before I turned away and I knew I had won before I even begun. I heard him mumble a curse word under his breath, followed by the shuffle of pages and a few moments later, the mattress sunk in behind me.

'Would you like to tell me where you were?' I asked calmly shrugging his hand from my shoulder as soon as the shock waves pulsated through my skin from his gentle touch.

'Just on a business run.'

'In your boxers? From early hours in the morning till after midnight the following day? No text, no call AND you locked me out of your mindlink.'

(Stop asking so many questions Lexi. I thought you wanted to teach him a lesson.)

'I went to see Scalava.'

‘Natalie?! Jesus Christ give me a break here. He left in boxers doesn’t come back till the next day, in boxers. Should I question that??’

(He didn’t say Natalie. His wolf is telling me it was his father. Not her. Don’t question it.)

‘How can I not!?’

(Don’t forget the trust. He loves us Lex.)

Sighing deeply I found myself responded to Xavier and completely changing the subject. 'You know you missed quite a bit. I found out some kids were being bullied so I took care of them and took them home. I met Chase, who's back by the way and says hello. Xenara found her mate. I even met most of the people that stay at the pack house and helped out where I could. I was in full Luna mode today for the first time... And you weren't there...'
