Chapter Seven

I Did Well Holding Myself Back

Lilly

The gentle wind that flows on my face helps me relax a little. But my nerves are still on the edge.

After I request Beta Tristan to take over and ask everyone to come home, I find a certain Alpha sitting highly once again on the throne and looking expectantly on me. I always thought the alphas give high importance to the Alpha King, and that includes the things that he left. The previous alphas are very careful not to touch, much more sit on the throne, without compelling reason. This is the first time I ever see an alpha who just sits on the throne easily and for no apparent reason at all. He seems like treating the Alpha King's chair as an ordinary chair.

"Well, where are you taking me?" He seems to be getting impatient because I am taking my time and not saying anything to him. Still, I somehow manage to murmur 'outside,' so right now, I am standing in front of the Meeting Hall, waiting for him to come with his car.

Unexpectedly enough, I am the only one standing in front of the hall. All of the pack members are still inside of the hall and not one of them has come out of the place even after the meeting has ended. Are they.. waiting for the Alpha to leave before they go?

In a few moments, a sleek black car park in front of me. The door of the driver's seat opens and I saw Alpha Lucas came out. He is wearing black sunglasses and a plain white T-shirt. To say that he looks beautiful is perfectly correct. Still, the manliness of his appearance will make one embarrassed before they utter those words to him.

Alpha Lucas walks to the passenger seat before he opens the door for me.

"Here you go, little imp." He says while motioning me to go inside the car.

Little?

Imp?

Did he mistake me for someone else?

I hold my tongue from questioning him and just go inside the car. The interior of the car is as sleek as its exterior. I am not familiar with cars, so I don't know what kind of car this is. But it looks really exquisite and nice.

"Where do you want to go?" He asks me once he is inside the car.

I don't really know the places where we can go. But, it will be inappropriate for me to not suggest anything since I am the one who initiated to go outside.

"Alpha, how about the diner in front of the place where I work. The burgers they sell smells really delicious."

"burgers?" Alpha Lucas raises his brows as if he is pleasantly surprised. Does he not like burgers? I thought everyone would like them. Although, for myself, I think chicken sandwiches are better.

"Uhm, yeah. They smell good. But, of course... we can eat another food?"

"I like burgers, I just thought you'd love fried chicken instead." He responds as he gives me a smirk.

He starts the car and drives to the direction of the diner. This surprises me a bit because he never asked me any information about myself. But, I have a feeling that he already previously gathered details about me.

"You know where the diner is?"

"Reaffirming if I asked around about you?" Is his only reply and I feel like my cheeks turn beet red.

"I both did and did not." He supplies.

What does he mean by that?

"Lilly, actually we cannot eat at the diner right now. Most of the pack members are still in the hall, and that includes the diner's boss and workers." He kindly informs me when we are already near the place.
