Chapter 21

Chapter 21 “Row, I think the Alpha loves you. If not, why would he give us his room to freshen up? Gracle asked when she closed the door to Jaxon’s room. Rowena almost fell for it but upon careful thought, she shook his head and stated, “Don’t forget that his father is sick and needs my help. Men would do anything if they want something. Please don’t make it sound as if I am special to him or something.” Gracie disagreed. She went on to explain, “I understand why you are saying this but isn’t it unfair to think this of him because of what Charles did to you? I mean, Jaxon does not seem to be anything like Charles,” she shrugged whiles looking around the room admiringly Rowena had already begun to remove her clothes. Thinking from eight years ago, Rowena could not bear to agree with Gracie. She went on to explain her reason as well. “You talk as if you know him. was fifteen when he left his pack. He was cold and very anti social, I cleaned his room before but during those days, he just looked at me like a tree. Charles was even more friendly and approachable, Look, don’t judge people because of how nice they seem to you at the moment. They can change at any time.” Gracie had also undressed whiles listening to Rowena’s speech which she still could not bring herself to agree with even a little bit. From the way Jaxon looks at Rowena, it’s as if she is his very life, A man would not look at a woman like that if all he wants is to take advantage of her. She asked frustratedly. “So, you are saying that he is a bad person? Should we shower together?” Rowena was lost but decided to answer Gracie’s last question first. “It will save time if we shower together but what I mean is, if the Alpha gets well is when we most probably would know Jaxon for who he is. Whether good or bad, time will tell,” she said and walked to the shower room which was all’ glass. It was big enough for ten people so the two showered quickly.

They were also two new towels which made Rowena guess that Jaxon had planned this all along. Whiles they checked the closet, they were amazed. “So many female clothes, and all in your size, Gracie bustled. She was bent on making Rowena to understand that Jaxon was different.

“We wear the same size, Rowena rolled her eyes. She was not going to dream of the possibility that Jaxon did all this for her. “I’m a little bigger than you.” Gracie exclaimed. “By an inch, I guess,” Rowena said sarcastically. She had only lost weight because of stress but she still looked good. Gracie thought of something and asked, “Row, what if Charles regrets his actions and apologizes to you? Will you forgive his action from before and take him back?” Fear lingered in her voice, which Rowena discrmed but did not respond immediately. She had located a set of brand-new underwear and picked two, one for her and one for Gracie. They both put on the underwear before she responded carefully, knowing that the mate bond was like. “Charles is not one who regrets his actions but to answer your question, indeed I will forgive him because everyone makes mistakes. Gracie swallowed tightly and her face flushed with sadness. From the way Charles kept staring at Rowena before, she was afraid that she would not stand a chance if Rowena wanted him back. Her fears flew out of the window by Rowena’s next words, “but to take him back after the bond is broken, please. I’m so upset that you are even thinking into that direction. Your only contender is Clara, not me” Gracie smiled, as relief washed over her, “Clara does not seem like a problem to me. You might not notice it because you don’t give them attention but he does not look at Clara the way he looks at you.” Rowena froze instantly, Indeed, she tried her best to avoid Charles even when he was close but for him to look at her, it should probably be with disgust. “What do you mean by that?” She asked seriously. Gracie smiled a little and checked through the designer dresses on the hanger. She just needed something casual and her eyes settled on one that was a pair. “Jaxon is waiting. This dress is good, what do you think?” Rowena looked at the dress and smiled in adoration. She said honestly, “I agree and there are two of them. It reminds me of my teenage days.” There was wetness on her face when she said that. Back then, she only saw the girls from the higher ranks like Clara and her friends wearing such dresses. She wiped the tears when Grarle said and asked,

“Let’s wear it then. Do you want the purple or hot pink?” “I’ve always loved purple, Rowena said with a smile, knowing that Gracie loved pink but she could not tell how Jaxon knew all these. She saw the make up kit on the huge luxury dresser and began to apply a little on her face due to the tears she shed in the recollection of the past. “I’ll wear the pink then.” When they began to descend the stares, Rowena avoided eye contact with the men whiles she asked Jaxon, “I hope you don’t mind that we borrowed these dresses. We just could not resist them. She did not notice the alarming expressions. Jaxon swallowed tightly before he responded, “I already gave you access to everything” He almost said that everything was hers but held back in time. Rowena stood awkwardly in the middle of the stairs with Grace. They both had on matching flip flops matching the dresses they wore. She asked “And Alpha Clinton? The bedrooms were upstairs so she did not see the need of going downstairs only to return again. “Ahhhmmm, yes, upstairs in his room. I’ll lead the way,” Jaxon said awkwardly whiles climbing the stains. “How could she look so beautiful with her hair down like that and still pretend like she doesn’t know?” Charles had still not recovered from his shock and seemed to be lost in thought. Gracie’s heart tightened slightly, seeing that he was staring at Rowena more than he did her but forced a smile and followed Rowena. 1/2 “Dad! Rowena is here,” Jawon said without knocking on Alpha Clinton’s door. There was no response and he grew worried Alpha Clinton was his dad but Jaxon 187, had a livel respect for his father and would not barge into his mom. Just as he was about to repeat his words, the door opened from Inside and old Alpha Clinton stood at the doorway. Without permission, he pulled Powens into his arms and patted her back whiles saying “Welcome back! Bowens
