The Alpha Lycan's Mate

Chapter.10

Athena's p.o.v  (next day)

I've spent this whole entire day in my room. I can't look at him, let alone talk to him. It is now 12am, but I'm not tired. It's like my body won't let me sleep. I slam my arms on either side of me as I lay in bed.

As I continue tossing and turning, a loud bang echos throughout the entire house. I sit up quickly and look around.

" I know what you're thinking Athena, no."
" What am I thinking?"
" That someone broke in the house."
" Then what do you think that bang was, Alexis?"
" Anything but that. You really think someone will break into this house? Besides, how do you expect to fight in your pj's?"

I look down at myself and roll my eyes. I open the door and slowly walk down the hallway. I hear mumbling coming from downstairs. Do I really want to go check? I sigh and continue walking. The closer I get to the voices, the more I smell Luca's scent. Another bang echos throughout the house, making me jump.

" Luca stop. You're going to wake up Athena."
Grayson?

I get to the last floor and look around. I continue walking, but stop as I see Grayson's arms around Luca keeping him up.

" Grayson?" I ask, making him jump.
" Uhh, h-hi Athena." He says, and I raise my eyebrow at him.
I look over at Luca; he looks dead.

" What happened?" I ask, pointing my finger at Luca.
" Uhh, funny story. He kinda, sorta drank a lot at my house, and he may or may not be drunk." He says, making my eyes widen.
Before I could say anything, Luca's eyes open, and he looks straight at me.

" I'm not drunk." He says before laughing.
" Help me take him to the couch." Grayson says.

I quickly walk over to them and take Luca's other arm. We begin walking him to the couch, but I feel like I'm going to collapse. Carrying a man that's over 6'0 is pretty hard when you're not even 5'5. We finally get him to the couch. I put my hands on my knees as I try and catch my breathe.

" You good?" Grayson asks me.
I look up and glare at him.
" I'll uh, get him some water."
" Yeah, you do that." I say, and he quickly leaves.

I sit on the table that's directly in front of Luca. His hair was messy, his shirt was half off, and he smelled like alcohol. This was the first time I had see him since yesterday. He stared deep into my eyes as he had both his arms extended across the top of the couch. He tilts his head a little to the side as a smirk comes across his face.

My body was getting hotter and hotter by the second. It was like he was in my head reading every thought, every feeling, and every emotion I've ever had.

" Here, Luca." Grayson says as he comes into the living room holding a glass of water.
Luca looks away from me and looks at Grayson, taking the cup from him.

I walk over to Grayson and grab his arm as I take him aside.

" You're staying over to watch him, right?"
" Uhh."
" Grayson."
" I'm sorry Athena; I can't." He says, and I run my hands through my hair.
" This is your fault he's drunk."
" Let's not play the blame game." He says, and I glare at him.
" Don't do that with your eyes. You're scaring me." He says, making me roll my eyes.
" Look, all you have to do is put him to bed.
" You expect me to carry him?" I say widening my eyes, and he doesn't say anything.
" If you didn't realize, I'm the height and weight of a 13 year old little girl." I say, making him laugh.
I slap his arm, making him groan.

" This isn't funny."
" Okay okay, just let him walk by himself. If he can't, let him sleep on the couch." He says, and I sigh.
" Now, let's go back before he jumps out the window."
