Chapter 196 Two Supposed Mates


Lexi didn’t even know why she was crying or how long she had been crying for. All she


did know was that she was furious with herself for letting a prick like Allen get under


her skin so easily.


There was no way that he was her mate, was there? Her father had said that the


bonding between daemons and their mates was eternal. You only got one in your


lifetime and quite honestly, the thought of being bonded to Allen for the rest of her


life… the mere thought of it was driving her slowly insane.


She was so confused about her feelings for him. How was it possible to want to f“k


someone to an inch of their life…but also want to murder them with everything you


had in you? Wasn’t that the sort of toxic relationship that she had spent her life trying


to avoid?


Then why did she feel so empty without him near?


She groaned loudly and turned onto her back on the luxurious bed, casting her eyes


around the room for the first time she had arrived there.


It wasn’t bad at all. The furnishings were a little old-fashioned, homey, and antique,


and she liked that. The smell of solid wood, when it had been freshly polished, had


always given her a sense of peace. Perhaps it was a residual memory from her


childhood.


Papa had always told her that her mother insisted on having wooden furniture…the


old heirlooms passed down through generations from her maternal side. Yes. That’s


what it was.


That was why this room felt like home…this pack.. felt like home.. it was nothing to do


with the fact that Allen was here.


Lexi snorted as she stood and went through to the bathroom, and when she caught


sight of her tear-streaked face in the full-length mirror and her bedraggled hair she


swore internally.


No. She wouldn’t let anyone see her in this state. If you looked weak, then people


treated you differently and she didn’t want that. Especially not in the heart of a pack of


wolves. They respected strength, and she was more than strong. She was f**“‘g


indestructible.


With her characteristic smirk, she strode to her case and grabbed a change of clothes


before heading back to the bathroom to freshen up. They would only see the best that


she had to offer here. No more playing games and chasing and tormenting Allen.


No.


If he wanted her, then he could damn well work for it. She was done chasing. It was


his turn now. No sooner had she pulled the dress down over herself, was she


disturbed by a knock at the door. She smoothed her hair down and checked her


reflection in the mirror before heading over to the door and opening it just a c***k and


peering out through it warily.


When she saw that it was Allen standing there, and the forlorn expression on his face


that he tried to hide quickly, her stomach flipped in anticipation.


“Hey…” Allen greeted awkwardly as he rubbed his neck.


“Yes? What do you want?” Lexi answered cooly, as her stomach erupted in butterflies.


“Look, I don’t want things to be difficult between us,” Allen said, looking at her


uncertainly. “Us?” Lexi snorted, “What do you mean?”


Allen’s face was blank, but his eyes were full of a pain that she didn’t recognize. “Lexi,


everything that happened at the Enclave, I don’t regret. Not for a second.”


“Really? Because you spent a good amount of time trying to convince me that I was


the furthest thing from desirable that you thought anything could get.” Lexi hissed.


“I know. I… I was an i***t. I’m sorry. I… I was scared…” Allen answered mournfully as


his eyes focused on the floor.
