The Alpha’s Little Rogue by Lovey Dovey Chapter 106

Chapter 106
Alessia’s POV
I tiptoe down the stairs and into my room, slamming the door behind me and pressing my back to the door as I pant heavily.
Thankfully no one saw me doing my walk of shame. It wouldn’t have been fun to see a pack member as I struggled to get to my room with my rumpled clothes on. I don’t even want to imagine the kind of rumors that they’ll come up with.
When I get to my room, I jump into my bed, my tired muscles screaming at me to get more rest. I know I’m going to regret it but I can’t stop my eyes from sliding shut.
I wake up with a jolt and my eyes fly to my opened window to find sunlight streaming in. F u c k! I overslept.
I shower and shrug on my workout gear because there’s no way that Caden is ever going to let me have a day off just because we f u c k e d throughout the night.
get dressed and head into the kitchen to get a glass of coffee to wake me up. When I get in there, apart from a man sitting at the table with a plate of French toast in front of him, the kitchen is empty.
gnoring him, I walk over to the coffee machine and pour myself a glass. Hopefully, this will keep my energy while I have my a s s handed over to me by Caden.
fter downing the coffee in less than five minutes, I take the cup to the sink to wash up nd let out a soft groan as I think about the pain waiting for me. It has been so long ince I had training with Caden -due to the attack- and I’m not looking forward to it.
want things to get back to the way they once were but I’m not ready for the work that m going to need to put in to make that happen.
walk back to the counter and pull out a drawer, keeping the cup back inside. Turning round, I come face to face with one of the last people I want a confrontation from- nd I know that’s the only reason why she’s standing in front of me with that devilish nd crazy look in her eyes.
Fou finally succeeded in coming between Caden and me,” she sneers.
y brows furrow together. What on earth is she yapping about now? Is it wise to go own this road with her? Or should I simply seek out an escape route?

‘I f u c ki n g warned you to stay away from him.” She levels me with a verminous stare and if eyes could shoot daggers then I would surely be six feet under.
“What in the moon goddess name are you talking about?” I ask, curiosity rearing its s t u p i d head out and getting the better of me.
“You and Caden were up in his room throughout yesterday and only a s t u p i d person will confuse the noises coming out of the room with something else,” she spits, her eyes flashing with anger.
D a m n. There goes my wish of hoping that no one heard what happened in his room.
“How did you do it?” Her words come out harsh but the note of curiosity is there and unable to be hidden.
I smirk, a smile making its way to my face, wiping away the bad state that her presence had put me in.
“I did nothing. I just made sure to be my cheerful self,” I answer sweetly. Whoever said ‘kill your enemies with kindness’ knew exactly what he was talking about. Veronica’s eyes managed to get darker in color.
“I’m going back home,” she states matter of fact.
I don’t even bother trying to hide the pure relief that falls across my face. She had been the worst guest since she stepped in here and I’m not about to sugarcoat my feelings towards her.
“You can be happy all you want.” She moves closer to me. “Mark my words, I’m going to make you pay for stealing Caden away from me.”
“He was never yours,” I exclaim exasperatedly, tired of all the c r a p coming out of her mouth. “He was your sister’s mate and now he’s mine. There has never been a time when he was yours.”
The anger in her
in her eyes drains away for a second, giving room to something that looks very similar to hurt. She blinks and then it’s gone.
“Watch your back. I’m going to get you back for all this,” she promises sternly, her eyes having a glimpse of evil and hatred in them that actually sends shivers down my spine.
How is it possible for her to harbor so much hate for someone that she has barely spoken to?
“I’m late for my training,” I bite out, releasing that I’ve spent a good part of my morning

bickering with her. I stutter to think about what sort of punishment Caden will assign to me. I can’t imagine doing a hundred push-ups when I haven’t even done one for weeks
now.
Sidestepping her, I rush out of the pack house and start the journey to the pack’s training ground.
When I get there, my eyes instantly seek out Jake- like they do anytime I suspect that Caden is in a foul mood. I always meet him first to ascertain exactly how bad the situation is before taking a step into the lion’s den.
My chest squeezes as I remember what had happened within the past few weeks. It’s hard to accept that Jake is gone and there are times when I feel like he’s right beside me.
“You finally decided to show up. Took you long enough.”
The sound of that voice jolts me out of my daydreaming and brings me back to my presence. I look up to find Caden’s hard gaze directed my way. What is it with people glaring at me?
I’m sorry,” I start, then pause to think of what excuse to come up with. It’s not like I can cell him that his late mate’s sister ambushed me because of her crazy obsession with him. Or could I? “I overslept.” Not bad. Seems perfectly probable. It’s not like he knows hat I got out of his bed at the break of dawn and then felt asleep again.
Why did you leave my bed without my permission?”
