Chapter 39
Eve POV
The morning sun comes through the window and starts to geraly wake me. Before I open my eye take a deep breath and scent the most amazing smell of a forest before a storm. I can feel Conrad’s bare ches underneath my head as my fingertips tingle as they rest on his abs.
I feel sleep with him. Again, I always sleep so well when he is near me but i start to panic that I’m in his room. In his bed. I try to get up but he grabs me tight around the waist, pulls me back to the bed with a growl, and turns me so he is spooning me,
“Stop trying to leave me“.
1 surrender and relax while he holds me. He starts nuzzling my neck and Kissing it again sending the butterflies in my stomach into a frenzy.
He turns me to look me in the eyes. “Have dinner with me tonight. In the house kitchen, not the formal dining room“.
I just groan. After the show we put on yesterday, I was planning to hibernate. “I don’t think that a good idea“.
“You don’t think I’ve noticed you making your own food out of hours so you can avoid the pack members. When was the last time you had something decent to eat“.
Of course, he noticed. I had just been having sandwiches, cereal, and fruit since we moved in here as I didn’t want to bother anyone else.
“I don’t like being waited on. I’ve always looked after myself so it’s weird taking from pack supplies“.
“Well, tough cookies my lady. I did promise you that you would be treated the way you should have been while you are here. I have a bunch of meetings today but I’ll see you at 6 this evening“.
He pulled me close and gave me a quick kiss on the lips before I got up and left. I instantly started freaking out. Why does this stuff freak me out so much? I consider calling the girls but I can’t deal with their excitement right now.
I try to keep myself busy during the day avoid my anxiety and eventually have a shower and start to think about what to wear. When I go to my wardrobe the amount of stuff I have looks ridiculous compared to the size of the wardrobe. I opt for a long skirt with a slit up the side and a top Michelle likes me in. That
should do.
I always like skirts with the slit in the leg as it gives me coverage, but I can strap knives to my leg just in case something comes up. I put one on as I feel safer wearing them than not having them lk down to the kitchen, and I’m greeted by Conrad talking to the only other pack member in the kitche..
“Hey, you came“, he smiles at me.

1 per mile back and go take a text on the other side of the table. The pack has two kitchens. A commercial one that is weed for the Banget Ball and this one is for smatter meals. Mainly for Conrad if he wants a more relaxed dinner setting if fers a fot of wood and looks more like a rustic family kitchen. There is a big wooden table in the middle with the kitchen at the other end. The table has bench seating along each side,

When i sit down, Conrad comes and sits next to me. He puts a leg over each side of the bench, so he is messites then speis facing me and pulls me in close. He just holds me there, I try to pull away as i don’t want the staff member to see but Conrad has a firm grip and is making it clear he is not letting me go.
don’t you two look adorable“. I turn to the voice and see the lady in her late 50% cooking away. She is the typical grandmother figure, Very curvy, wearing an apron, and standing over a store.
Conrad starts to introduce me “Lewana this is Mary. She is our main cook in the pack kitchen and her main role is to keep Liam and me fed. She was actually Liam’s Nanny when he was little and when we re- instated the Royal Moon pack, she came with us to make sure we weren’t only eating, takeout“.
“Oh that’s a lovely name my dear. I hope you’re hungry as I have cooked a lot of everything. Can’t believe you have gone days without eating something proper“.
I smile nervously at her. “It’s no big deal. I’m used to it“.
“It is in my kitchen dear“. She seemed genuinely upset at the idea.
Just then Michelle and Liam come through the door. Liam goes running up to Mary and gives her a hug and kiss on the cheek.
“Evening beautiful“.
“You giant flirt and in front of your girl as well“.
“I can’t help it. You know that by now“. He tries to pinch a cookie off the tray and she grabs a tea towel and starts whipping it at him to smack him.
“Not til after dinner“.
We all sit down at the table. Michelle and Liam are all cuddly as usual when Liam looks over at Conrad and me. With a smirk and in a teasing voice he says, “You two seem to be getting along“.
I start to go red and look down when Mary comes up behind Liam and smacks him over the back of the
head.
“Oooww. What was that for“.
“Don’t be rude to the poor girl“. She then turns and glares at Conrad. “And you, let the girl go she can eat. Just because you are Alpha King doesn’t mean you are above a smack“.
Conrad let out a chuckle and released me and I slid away just a little.

Mary put a plate in front of me. “Here you go dear. And if these two cause you too much grief let me know and I will sort them out“.
I just smile and look down and the food in front of me. It was steak with mashed potatoes and veg. On the table are other bowls of mac and cheese, a story noodle dish, and stuffed chicken. Mary serves everyone else and then joins us at the table. I start slowly eating and everyone else digs in with gusto.
Dessert is ice cream sundaes and cookies. By the end, I’m slightly more relaxed but it’s still strange. I’ve never had a family like this before.
