The Werewolf King’s Runaway Queen
Chapter 74

Alissa's

POV

I woke up due to the sunlight hitting my face.

I slowly opened my eyes and when I attempted to move my body even just a little bit, pain shot through my body and I groaned. Fck.

I shut my eyes tightly as I took a deep breath then I looked at myself.

I was covered in sheets and blankets but I was definitely naked inside of it.

I immediately flushed red when I realized that and remembered just what had happened last night with Luke and I.

Oh ghad.

Then, I touched my neck where the marking spot was.

I was marked.

I've been marked.

I closed my eyes amd sighed then I pulled the covers up to my head.

Dear ghad.

What have I done?

And to think that I only just came back recently.

Seriously, Alissa?

This is who you are now?

Then, I heard the door opening and I froze.

I closed my eyes and pretended that I was still asleep.

Then, I felt him sit beside the bed and I felt the cover get pulled off my face gently.

I gulped just before he could see it.

My heart was thumping loudly inside my chest.

I hope he doesn't hear it.

Then, I felt his skin touch mine as he caressed my face with his thumb.

His touch sent bolts of electricity through my body.

"I know you're awake" he suddenly said.

I gulped and I heard him chuckle.

I slowly opened my eyes and saw Luke smiling at me.

"Hey" he said.

I looked away as I blushed.

"Hey" I said.

"It's already pretty late. What do you want to eat? You must be starving" he said.

I looked at him.

"I'm fine. I'm not hungry at all I-"

Then, my stomach growled.

Fck my life.

Luke burst into laughter and I covered my face in embarrassment.

I tried to turn around but immediately felt the pain again making me groan.

Luke immediately stopped laughing and looked at me.

"What's wrong?" he asked looking concerned.

"It hurts" I muttered.

"Where?" he asked.

I bit my lower lip.

"All over" I said as I flushed red.

Luke just stared at me for a moment before nodding.

Then, he got up and I watched him go to the bathroom.

What is he going to do?

After some time, he came back but went to the walk in closet.

He came out with pieces of clothing and put it by the bedside table.

"I'm preparing a warm bath for you. It'll lessen the pain" he said and caressed my hair.

I nodded as I blushed a little.

Luke gave me a small as he held my hand.

"Does it hurt a lot?" he asked carefully.

I gulped and nodded.

Luke sighed.

"Let me do this for a moment. Maybe it'll help" he said and he got in the bed with me.

I covered myself with a squeak.

"I don't have clothes on!" I panicked.

Luke gave me a look.

"Yeah, I know. I already saw and felt it all last night-"

I immediately covered his mouth.

"For fck's sake, Luke. Do not make this more awkward than it already is" I said and he laughed as he continued to get into bed with me. "Then, stay put and let me do this for you" he said.

He carefully covered me in a blanket and gently lifted my upper body up letting me lean on his body as he held me.

Luke had his arms wrapped around me as I leaned my upper body on his.

"Being closer to each other should help you relax" he whispered.

I nodded as I closed my eyes.

We stayed like that for a few moments.

Then after some time, the bath was ready.

I was going to try and get up but Luke lifted me up instead.

I had a single blanket covering me as he carried me into the bathroom.

Luke put me down on the bathtub then left.

He came back with the clothes from earlier and put it by the sink.

"Let me help you wash your hair and body then I'll leave you so you can take as much time as you need while I get your food prepared" he said.

I thought about it.

I mean, he has seen it all anyway.

But still...

Whatever.

I hesitantly nodded and Luke started by washing my hair.

After that, he started cleaning my body and his skin on mine made me tingle all over.

I could tell that he was pretty tensed himself but I guess he didn't want me to feel uncomfortable so he just kept quiet and did it all as fast as he could. "Let me know when you want to get out so I can help you" he said.

"Okay. Thank you" I said and gave him a smile.

He also gave me a smile as he left.

I slid slowly to the bottom of the tub as I flushed red.

Is this a dream?

How is all of this even happening right now?

Ghad.

I covered my face and mouth to stifle a scream.

I stayed in the tub for a while until I felt good enough to move on my own.

I did a final rinse and then I carefully dried myself off.

I slipped into the clothes that Luke prepared for me.

It was his clothes. A white oversized button down shirt that was above my knee long and then a new pair of panties.

I dried my hair and then walked out of the bathroom.

I saw the bed and memories from last night came flooding on my mind.

I wanted to get eaten up by the floor in embarrassment.

We really did IT.

I couldn't go back to the bed immediately so I went to the balcony in Luke's room instead.

I held on to the railings as I looked up and a smile formed in my face.

I'll enjoy this momentary joy just in case it doesn't last long.

Just in case.
