I hadnt realized how closely I was standing to him until he stood a bit straighter and tilted his head towards me . I swallowed the lump wedged in my throat and fought the strange urge to reach out and touch him . What was wrong with me lately ? It had to be because I was rebounding over Ethan . The wound of his betrayal was still so fresh that my wolf had been quiet . Yet whenever Gavin was around , she seemed to be perking up a little more . It was clear to me that she liked Gavin , and yet I could still feel the pain she felt from our mates betrayal . The mark Ethan gave me was still on my neck and every time he was remotely intimate with Irene , I would feel the pain from our broken mate bond . It was no wonder I was suddenly clinging to the first attractive man that crossed my path . The comers of Gavins lips tipped upward into a smile . I am someone who keeps work and personal matters separate , he told me , his tone deep and sending warmth throughout my body , making my cheeks feel incredibly hot I dont want the rest of the household to think that I harass my teammates or subordinates . I prefer my staff to wear tasteful clothing and not be so suggestive . My mouth nearly fell open from his words ; I folded my arms across my chest and glared at him , not caring that he was a Lycan and that I shouldnt be looking directly into his eyes . Most Alphas would think of that as a challenge , especially a Lycan Alpha . This type of clothing is common for college students to wear , I informed him . Do you have to be so old- fashioned ? He raised his brows at me .. Are you seriously going to question me ? Did you forget that I am now your boss ? He countered . I opened my mouth to reply with something equally as snarky , but then I immediately closed it because he was right . Gavin Landry was my boss now , which meant I had to abide by his set rules . He was the one paying my salary and my parents desperately needed this money ; it was good money too . It was an opportunity I couldnt pass , and I couldnt risk getting fired before I even got started . It would be better if I just agreed to his rules and kept my mouth shut . I apologize . I shouldnt have been disrespectful . Ill wear something less revealing the next time I come here , I assured him . He stared at me for a moment longer before he hodded his Head once . Come inside . We can discuss your schedule , and Ill have my Beta draw up a contract , he said , turning away from me and walking towards his house . I followed after him but froze when I heard a ruffling sound in the nearby bush . Before I could grasp what was happening , Matt was jumping out of the bush holding a water gun ! I was wearing a white crop top , and I lmew if it got wet , it would be see through .noveldrama I nearly screamed when I saw the stream of water aiming directly towards me , Gavin was quick though ; much quicker than I thought possible . He was in front of me in seconds and his arms were protectively draped around my body . The warmth of his arms was enclosed around me , and I felt safe in the cocoon he created for me using his body . I heard Matt laughing as water soaked Gavins shirt and a low growl emerged from Gavins throat . Chapter 0014 I could tell he was furious with Matts tricks . Gavins cologne hit my senses , and my heart hammered in my chest from his close proximity . I found myself leaning into him , feeling his muscles digging into my back and his strong arms tightening around me . My cheeks grew hot , and I felt warmth spreading across my lower abdomen . Another low growl escaped Gavins mouth , and I could feel his hot breath on the back of my neck , causing goosebumps to form on my flesh . Briefly , I wondered if he could smell my sudden arousal . His arms were untangled around me , and I felt cold from the lack of touch . He turned his body around to glare at his son who was still laughing . What have I told you about playing such tricks like that , Matthew ? Gavin growled ; his fury evident Matt finally stopped laughing and when I looked at him , I could see that his face had gone pale , and he almost looked nervous </body></html>
