Chapter 21

Could I forget I’d walked in on Grayson masturbating in the shower while groaning my name?

No.

But I could pretend like I could for the sake of saving face. I accepted his offer. The reality was I had nowhere else to go. I could go stay in town, but honestly, I didn’t trust my grandmother enough. She’d cancel my cards and cut me off of the family money in a heartbeat if she thought it would get me back into her grasp.

So Grayson was my easiest choice. Besides, who could they send to come retrieve me? I couldn’t see Grandmother or Edgar striking a deal with Lucien. They barely tolerated him hanging around the manor as it was.

Wesley was my only concern. He was the only one that they could still buy or bribe to help them drag me back to the manor. If they could find me at all.

By the evening, I’d had several missed calls and messages from Edgar. Even Alexa reached out, messaging me right as Grayson breezed into the cabin, a pizza box in hand. The luscious scent of cheese and basil filled the little living area as he nudged the door shut with his bare foot.

“Did you really walk barefoot for pizza?” I asked as I finished typing out my response to Alexa.

I am fine. I just needed some space. I will be back in a few days, promise.

I hit send and shut off my phone, my shoulders relaxing as I looked forward to disconnecting from the world for a few days.

“You could say that.” Grayson set the box down on the breakfast table. I eyed it, my stomach churning with anticipation, when I noticed the marks on the box. I sat up, leaning over the back of the couch to get a better look.

“Are those - are those teeth marks?” I asked.

He gave me a sheepish smile. “I run faster in my wolf form.”

Frowning, I glanced from the pizza box to his shirtless body. “You just walk into the store shirtless? Or do they serve you in wolf form?”

He chuckled, “Let’s just say they don’t bat an eye when a wolf comes looking for some pie.” He motioned to the box. “Go ahead and get some. I’m going to get the couch made up.”

“And what about your clothes? Do you just leave sweatpants all over the swamp in case you need them?” I asked. He just gave me a devious grin in response.

I rolled over the back of the couch, digging into the pizza while Grayson rummaged around in a closet. So far, we’d made a silent agreement. I wouldn’t mention I’d walked in on him in the shower, and he wouldn’t bring up what he was doing in the shower. It left an uncomfortable chasm between us, but I preferred it.

At first, I’d wondered if he knew I’d heard him. He was acting pretty calm for a guy who just got caught doing some self-service, but then I noticed how careful he was to keep space between us.
