BXBX NOVEL Chapter 53 - Wolf Or A Husky
Chapter 53 - Wolf Or A Husky
When Jeremy came to his office, his heart melted to a puddle seeing her sleeping. With her head resting on the table, she looked cute.
He got close to her and his hand naturally went to pet her head, but he held himself back. Bending to her level, he looked at her face. She looked peaceful as she slept.
All I want is for you to be peaceful, my Luna...
He talked to his shrink and she suggested staying away from her if she triggers his attacks. But how could he do that?
He might not be her lover, but she is a member of his pack forever. As an alpha, he must protect her and he will just do that.
Jerlina was in her dreams. She was walking through an unfamiliar forest and her heart pounded as there was only the gentle moonlight to illuminate the way. In the distance, she saw a couple of blue wisps floating around. She was drawn to them and walked closer, but as she got closer, the wisps started to rise up. It was then she realized that the mesmerizing blue orbs were the eyes of a big monstrous wolf.
She turned and started to run as fast as her legs took her as the wolf chased. She ran and ran trying to get out of the forest, but she got trapped in a never-ending loop of creepy weeping willows.
She, in the end, got caught by the wolf. That towering wolf with the prettiest blue eyes stared at her. Looking at its eyes, she slowly calmed down. The gentle moonlight, the big monster, the creepy trees, everything looked the same, but she felt relaxed.
"You\'re not a wolf... you\'re a husky, aren\'t you?" she said in her dream after she got relaxed. "Here\'s a banana for you..."
A banana appeared in her hand and she peeled it and offered it to the wolf. The wolf slowly got closer to her. It had brown hair all over and there were scars on its body she could see even in the moonlight.
She thought the wolf will eat the banana, but it stood on its two hind legs.
"I don\'t need a banana. I have a banana," the wolf said and Jerlina saw a banana hanging between the hind legs of the wolf.
"Oh, then what do you like?"
"I like a peach... I like your peach," the wolf said and jumped on her.
Jerlina laughed heartily as the wolf played with her. His hair tickled her face and neck and she giggled like a child. She realized this wolf is indeed a husky.
Suddenly the mood became intense and even the moonlight seemed hot. Her lips felt wet and her chest felt tight and she looked up to see the muscular man with a divine face bending down to kiss her.
TJ?
----
"Guh!" she woke up with a gasp. "What a weird dream..." she mumbled as she rubbed her face and got up from the chair. The dream was so vivid and she felt butterflies in her stomach when she saw TJ\'s face getting close to her. Even her lips felt wet.
Nice job, Jerlina! Sleeping and dreaming on your first day of work! Shame on you!
She chided herself. She was startled to hear the door unlocking and she was stunned to see TJ holding a coffee mug.
"You woke up!" he smiled. "Here, coffee...Is espresso fine with you? The coffee machine is broken..."
TJ went on and Jerlina blinked as she got the mug. "I\'m sorry I slept," she bowed her head. She thought he was being sarcastic when he brought her coffee.
"It\'s fine..." he waved his hand. "Drink," he insisted.
Jerlina sipped the strong coffee and felt refreshed. She felt TJ\'s stare at her and she looked at him.
That dream... Is he really a husky? Or pretending to be one?
Maybe I should get to know him as Scar said... There are no cons to that. It might help me escape him.
"Gran- Alexander Volkonsky wants to have lunch with you..." he said as he saw her staring at him.
He looked like a child waiting to get his parent\'s permission to go play with his friends in the park.
"Oh?" Jerlina\'s first thought went to the order he placed. She thought he wants to meet her regarding that. "That\'s great. Where will be the meeting?" she was prepared to meet him.
"Wilkinson Club at 1 p.m."
"Oh, thanks. Then I\'ll have to leave now. Shall I book a cab?" she asked him checking the time. She was confused seeing him looking like he has a lot to say.
"We\'ll go together," he said and she picked up her purse with a smile.
"Okay."
Let\'s try and get along!
Both of them walked out of the office. Sitting in the front passenger seat of a sparkling new Jeep, she took in the pleasant scent of the new car.
Buying a Porche and a Jeep in a few days..? Man! It should be good to be rich!
Wait... he said \'go together\'. So is he joining the meeting too?
"Wilkinson Club?" she turned and looked at him.
"Yes, and-"
"They won\'t let anyone in without formal wear. You should get changed to a suit," she said.
As a secretary, these details are in the tip of her fingers. Wilkinson Club is one of those posh clubs every billionaire aspires to get into and they have their own set of strict rules to adhere to.
"Really? Are you sure?"
She saw his face getting twisted with anger. He even mumbled some curses directed at the old man.
"A jacket above my shirt won\'t do?" he asked. He knew the old man chose that club solely to make him wear a suit. But he didn\'t want to.
"No," Jerlina shook her head glancing at him in his usual plaid shirt, jeans and boots. "they won\'t even allow loafers."
Jeremy sighed. When that old man called him and ordered him to have lunch with his wife, he thought he just wanted to test his patience. But that old guy wants to make his head explode by forcing him to wear a suit. Sure he can refuse to join him for lunch, but he respected him, sadly.
"Then let\'s get back home and get changed. Or..."
He prepared to talk to her about this, but he couldn\'t gather his courage. That woman who visited him last night already spread information that he and his wife are not sleeping in the same bed and now Moses is thinking that the marriage is fake.
"We can buy clothes and jewelry for you in a shop nearby..." he gulped.
By jewelry, he meant a ring... an engagement ring.
He wanted to buy her something. He has spent a lot on her, but he has never bought anything for her to wear. He wanted to see her wearing something he bought for her.
He knew it is a long shot. But he was willing to take it.
"I am dressed properly," Jerlina said looking at her clothes. "And why should we buy jewelry?"
