Rejected By Him Claimed By His Uncle (Rita and Leo)

Chapter 22

The nights of mating ceremonies were rumored to be always memorable, but I had to make sure this night wouldn't be.

"One bed?" Creases formed on my forehead as the Alpha and I walked into his room.

He quickly closed the door behind us.

"If we are sharing a room, shouldn't we have separate beds?"

"Nobody must know that you will be my contract Luna for six months. We will be doomed if anybody finds out. Bringing in another bed would surely raise suspicions."

I shifted my gaze from him. He was right but I was not ready to share a bed with him. For goddess sake, I was trying to avoid him a few days ago. "Did it hurt?" Did it hurt?

I

raised an eyebrow, confused. "Does what hurt?"

"When I marked you? Did it hurt you? I was so involved in the moment that..." His voice trailed off. His eyes darted around my face as he studied.

When Alpha Leo sank his fangs into my flesh, I felt immense pleasure that it was hard to tell if there was any pain or not. I did not know how to answer his question. I could not tell him that I enjoyed it when he bit me. "I was not really paying attention," I responded, completely turning away from him. "I was just waiting for everything to

"Oh!" Alpha Leo exclaimed, saying nothing more. Was I overthinking or did I just hear a hint of pain in his voice?

"Where are you sleeping?" I asked. "The bed or the couch."

"We can share the bed.

I turned to Alpha Leo sharply. "We can't..." My voice trailed off and I took a deep breath. "You can have the bed. I'll take the

couch."

He frowned.

"I'm not letting you sleep on the couch. It is not comfortable. If you're scared that I will try to touch you, you worry. The contract we signed won't allow me to touch you." should not shou

I in frustration. It was not only about him. I was attracted to the wolf before me. If we shared a bed, at one point or the other, our skin would continuously touch. There was a huge chance that I would lose control.

"I can manage the couch. You don't have to worry about anything."

Without saying anything, Alpha Leo marched to me, scooped me in his arms and walked toward the bed. My resolve melted with me in his arms.

I was too weak to resist him. I wanted to remain here for a very long time.

He dropped me on the bed and I finally gathered the strength to talk. "Alpha Leo, you're going against the contract we signed."

"How?" He sounded as if he dared me to say what was on my mind. Like he dared me to tell him that one touch from him

He walked back to the sofa and took a seat. "I will stay on the sofa while you sleep on the bed if you insist on not sharing a bed with me."

"Alpha Leo, I don't want to cause you difort. I'm pretty sure the couch is more comfortable than the bed I have slept on since my childhood."

"If you will sleep on the couch, then I will join you. I can't let you sleep on the couch while I sleep on the bed. It's either I join you on the bed or I sleep on the couch."

I had no choice but to let him take the couch.

I let him use the bathroom first with my eyes closed the whole time he was getting ready to sleep. Knowing fully well that I would never undress with him in the room, he excused himself and left the room for me. After about an hour, he returned to the room and by then, I was on my bed already.

The next day when I woke up, he was nowhere to be found. I had mixed feelings when I saw that he was not in the room. One part of me wanted to see him, the other part was glad at the space he gave me. to be sincere with yourself. Every part of you wants to see him.' I heard a voice in my head say. It sounded like Dakota.

Try

My eyes widened. 'Dakota? Is that you?' I heaved a sigh of frustration when I did not get a response. I was missing her so much that I could hear her voice even when she was still deep in sleep.

I wondered what I was going to do from now on. I had a few weeks off from training so I knew that for now, that was not an option. I took out my phone so I could do a little research about the pack. It would be cool if I had a little impact during the six months that I will be Luna.

After about an hour, I dressed up to visit Mr. Rio. I was not letting Sebastian go scot free, especially after two lives have been taken.

I wore a black maxi dress and draped a black scarf around my face to avoid getting recognized.

After looking at myself in the mirror, I turned to the door. A click-clack sound came from the door and before I knew what was happening, the door opened and a she-wolf walked into the room.

I I watched in shock as she sat nonchalantly on the bed.

glared at her, but without flinching she glared back at me.

I was only Alpha Leo's contract Luna alright but nobody except Alpha Leo and I knew about that so nobody had the right to disrespect me as much as the she-wolf just this.

To others, I was their Luna. Who on earth walks into the Alpha and Luna's bedroom and sits on the bed just like that? How did she even get the key to the room? "Who are you?" I growled.

The she-wolf smirked. "Your mate's mistress."
