“Design concept?”

I shook my head.

“It stands for loyalty, devotion, and faithfulness. It’s like giving someone

My mind went blank for a second.

Then I quickly pushed that thought away.

Luis couldn’t possibly know what this bracelet meant. Yesterday, he was ready to throw it away when I didn’t want it.

He must’ve bought it by chance.

After dinner with Zelena, I went home with mixed feelings.

When I opened the door, I froze. Luis was lying lazily on the couch. He wore a gray shirt and black pants. One arm was behind his head; the other rested on his forehead. His long legs crossed casually at the edge of the couch.

He heard the door open and slowly lifted his eyes to look at me.

I stood petrified, caught off guard, our eyes meeting.

The room fell silent. The air felt frozen between us. None of us said anything.

The bedroom lights were off; only a faint silver glow from the moon spilled in from the balcony.

I couldn’t see his face clearly, but his burning gaze pinned me in place. My feet refused to

move.

After a long time, Luis sat up lazily, leaning against the couch.

I snapped back to the present and quickly flipped on the light with a sharp click.

Luis raised an eyebrow. “Piggy, you’ve gotten bold. Ignoring my calls and vanishing without a word?”

I bent down to change my shoes, avoiding his eyes.

“I never said I’d move back there.”

“So I was imagining things?” His voice dropped lower, a bit rougher. I could feel his eyes on my waist–hot, intense, almost searing through my clothes.

I tried to sound calm. “I just don’t feel comfortable living in a strange house.”

The place I bought wasn’t big, but with him there–tall, confident, radiating power–the space suddenly felt smaller.

After changing my shoes, I tried to slip past him and escape to my room. But as I walked by, his hand suddenly reached out and caught my fingers.

His fingertips were burning hot, carrying that unique warmth only an Alpha had. The moment his skin touched mine, a spark shot through my veins like an electric current.

I instinctively tried to pull away, but he held tighter. Then, with a gentle tug, I fell right into his

arms.

“Luis!” I snapped, frustrated.

He sat there casually, legs spread wide, while I stood right between them.

Luis tilted his head up, his deep eyes locked on mine. “Deanna, you’re upset.”

I blinked and rebuked stubbornly. “And what makes you think that?”

Luis rose slowly to his feet, his tall frame radiating a quiet pressure that made the air heavy.

He tapped his chest, right over his heart. “Right here. I can see it clearly.”

“Now tell me,” he said with that lazy confidence, “who made my Piggy upset? I’ll deal with him for you.”

I looked down, avoiding his burning gaze, refusing to answer.

Luis reached out and pinched my cheek.

“Luis!” I slapped his hand away. “Stop touching me all the time!”

He smirked. “Oh, yeah? Yesterday it was fine. Today it’s not? Ms. Wiley, you’re quite the unpredictable woman.”

I pouted. “Whatever. Just don’t touch me.”

“Alright, fine. I won’t touch you,” he said with a teasing glint in his eyes. “I’ll be generous. How about you touch me instead?”

Then he leaned down and pressed my hand against his face.

For a second, my breath hitched. But then, a thought flashed through my mind—had this same hand touched his childhood sweetheart, too?

That possibility felt like a bucket of ice water dumped over me.

I tried to pull my hand away, but he held it tight. I couldn’t break free.

“Let go of me.”

“No.”
