Chapter 14-1
Trun’s POV
Descending the grand staircase, I found Kane waiting by the entrance, his features composed as if nothing had transpired only moments ago at the breakfast table…
I tried to match his casual demeanor, suppressing any lingering anxiety as I approached him- his eyes fixated on me making the
walk more intense than necessary.
“Ready to explore the town my little human?” He quipped, a teasing glint in his eyes that sent a shiver down my spine – I wish he wouldn’t call me his little human so much, since he does know my name!
I nod however, not trusting my voice at the moment before we turn and approach a black G wagon style vehicle- of course painted in his favourite colour which was black parked our front and waiting for him.
The drive in to the nearby town was silent, as we passed the same views as before first the large housing estate leading to the gold gates, down the hill and then in to the border of town.
The imposing presence of Kane driving beside me was making starting up a conversation feel like a risky venture…and I’ve so far learned first hand that the slightest comment can set this man off in a frenzy!
We drove into a parking lot, as Kane found a spot instantly at the front–stopping the car and drawing the attention of many nearby peoples eyes as I figured that they must recognise his vehicles.
I didn’t quite think this trip through until now….
This was their Alpha we are talking about. who would very soon be seen wandering human girl who was quite literally a nobody…

It was attention that I hadn’t yet prepared myself for as of today but there was no going back now!
As we climbed out of the car, with the sun streaming down on us (causing me to be grateful for my choice to morning) we strolled our way through the quaint streets as I couldn’t help but marvel at the vibrant shops and charming atmosphere of the town in general around us.

Kane, surprisingly, seemed more relaxed outside the mansion’s confines as I he nodded in acknowledgment to those who greeted him politely on passing with many ‘Hello Alpha‘ or ‘lovely day today isn’t it Alpha?‘ comments to show their respect.
“Let me know if you want to go in anywhere…” Kane states, as our steps slow and I take in the length of the shopping street in
which we now stood on
I glance around, trying to pick something I would enjoy, before my es fand on a little book store across the street….
“There!” I point shyly as his eyes follow my outstretched hand to the little brown store opposite us
The store itself looked a little old, but that was the quality that drew me in the most – I bet they have tons of great books hiding in there waiting to be read!
With that, Kane thankfully nods, before we cross the busy road with caution successfully reaching the other side and entering in to the book store itself.
“Alpha! Oh! I didn’t expect to see you in here today or I would have tidied up a little more! Welcome!” A young girl with large round glasses rushes to greet us, as my eyes grow wide at the mass of book shelves with a variety of colours coating the walls…

“Thank you…” Kane’s voice is pleasant, surprising me of store to visit yet he had agreed to it for me….

I approach the first section of books, selecting one from the shelf that jumps out at me first…
“You can pick some and I’ll buy thems.” Kame informs from behind r, as my heart skips a beat at the offer,
“W–What? Are you sure? You don’t have to do that…” I trail off, starog down at the little book in which I held tightly in my hands-
longing to read its pages now that I had spotted it…
“I insist, try and pick five that will keep you occupied whenever you are bored.” Kane shrugs, as I grin widely.
Five whole new books! I had almost finished my last book which I had brought with me on the flight, and therefore needed something to move on to for when it was done… this was a dream come true!

“Thank you… so much…” I nad my appreciation, turning to him softly as his stern face remains the same -all but nodding once in
return.
With that, I waste no time on exploring the store, as Kane moves towards the exit to around the store on my own…
“This one’s really great… I read it recently!” The kind girl recommends a book to me, the back…
a quick call – trusting me to navigate
I smile widely and take it from her to read
“This does sound really good… thank you!” I thank her softly, enjoying our interaction since I hadn’t freely spoken with anyone since being here.
At least not an interaction that felt this natural and smooth! The girl seemed nice, and I couldn’t
uldn’t help but think that she would make a great friend of mine and Erin if we ever had the opportunity to meet up in the future…
“Did you get around five?” I jump a little when hearing Kane’s voice again from behind me, as he must have ended the call and came back without me noticing.
I look down at the books in my arms, counting six in total as I chew my lip damn! What one will I get rid of? They all sounded real good…
“What is the problem?” Kane questions, noticing that I had stilled on the spot for a moment staring down at each of them in my
Bems.
“I uh… there’s six here… s–so I’m trying to decide what one to put back!” I admit, before hearing him chuckle loudly from behind
The girl kept herself busy – stacking some books back in to the right sections of the store – as I turned to look at Kane, unsure of what he was laughing at.
“Just get the six! It’s not a big deal! I only said five to e his head before taking all six from my hands.
encourage you to pick more than just one! Give me them!” He states, shaking
I blush a little, grateful for his unexpected generosity as I watched in pull out his wallet in order to pay for the books.

towards the counter, where Kane handed the stack of books to the smiling shopkeeper who scanned and bagged
As she tallied up the purchase, I couldn’t help but glance at the titles and feel a surge of excitement about diving in to read them…. this day was seeming to get a little better already!
The bell above the door chimed as we left the bookstore, and Kane opted to carry the bag containing pynewfound treasures for me. The town’s charm continued to unfold as we explored more little shops as Kane insisted that Lady anything I want which I of course didn’t want to do since he had just paid for my new books.
We meandered through the town, Kane’s presence commanding attention from both humans and werewolves alike as we passed by.
The townspeople greeted him with a mix of respect and admiration, creating a noticeable aura of authority around him as they watched on at their Alpha walking around with an unknown female,
As we passed a quaint little café, the aroma of freshly brewed coffee walled through the air. The enticing snell suddenly spurred an idea, and I turned to Kane with a hopeful expression
“What? You want to go in here next?” Kane suggests, as I nod, thangal that he had gotten the idea as we headed straight for the

door to enter,
Kane’s intense eyes surveyed the cafe, and after a moment’s consideration, he nodded towards a seat by the window, a hint of excitement flashing across his features. “Coffee it is then my little human. He chimes, seeming to be a fan of the idea as I smiled and followed him – ignoring the attention in which we naturally drow
The waitress, recognising Kane the moment we had entered, quickly approached as I took note of how she pulled down her shirt a little–sticking her breasts up more than what was probably necessary
Woah… was this a normal occurrence for him? Being the Alpha and all? I would imagine that females would long to be his partner…
Kane paid her no attention as she practically leaned herself across our table, as he ordered a black coffee, while I opted for a caramel latte a drink I had only had a handful of times when out in town with my Mom back home!

The waitress didn’t look at me once, remaining focused on Kane, as she lingered a while longer–causing for him to eventually look ng from the menu at her as I felt my heart sink a little watching his eyes trail up from her chest to her face….

“Anything else I can do for you Alpha? Anything at all… She asks, her voice leaking with desperation as she pouts her lips and offers him a glance down her shirt which causes my insides to churn
Why are some women like this? So bold!
“How about you do your fucking job and take that order back to the kitchen so that I don’t have to wait an hour for my drink?!” Kane sneers, as my lips part at how rude and dismissive he was as I watched the female retreat instantly – embarrassed and
ashamed that she had taken a shot at him.
I was almost a little proud seeing how unbothered he was by other females, considering that he had chosen to spend his two wook trial period with me… and not them! At least he was somewhat respectful towards me right?
As we waited for our drinks, a sense of anticipation hung in the air. The café offered a temporary escape from the rigid dynamics of the mansion, providing an opportunity for a more relaxed interaction between us both after this mornings encounter…

“Tell me, Tessa, what drew you to the particular books you chose in the shop?” Kane inquired, his gaze fixed on me that hinted at a genuine interest.
I thought on it for a moment, before replying–1 1–like books that are mysterious and 1 also like romance novels… 5–so I decided to get a mixture… oh, and the nice girl back there recommended one of them to me too!” I explained, since he had missed the encounter when he had gone off to take a call.
A man came back to our table with our drinks moments later, as he smiled brightly and placed each cup down in front of us.
I figured that the girl from before was no doubt too embarrassed to come back to our table and that would explain why this man was now tending to us instead…
“Anything else for you both today?” The man asks, as Kane shakes his head bluntly, not even bothering to pay him a glance.
With that, he nods, leaving us in prace, as 1 visibly watch Kanes shoulders relax as he takes a long sip from his coffee.
Kane leaned hack, his eyes never leaving mine. “I’m glad you found store here that you like.” He states, a 1-smile a little at the
Fact.
I would love to go back again whenever I need a new book… hopefully he won’t mind taking me back again some time in the
future…
As we sat for a while to finish our coffee, the ambiance of the town beckoned for me to explore it further from outside of the cafes window… “Ready to go? We have an hour left before I need to head back home for a meeting.” Kane informs me, as I stand from my position understanding that he was a busy man… being an Alpha and all!
We left, moving along further down the street, as my eyes landed on cute little flower store… I loved flowers… and so did Erin…
As we passed the store, with me slowing my p
pace in order to look in at the shop window, my thoughts drifted back to Erin and the

I mustered the courage to bring it up again, choosing my words carefully this time around as I spoke. “Kane, about Erin–L attempted to say, hearing him grean slightly.
He cut me off with a stern look, a warning flashing across his eyes we stood out in a public space before his curious pack members… “I thought we agreed to leave that tople behind, Tessa.”
His sharp tone sent a chill through me, making me retreat into an uneasy silence. Now wasn’t the right time to try again… which saddened me as I ran out of ways to help my friend….
We continued on our exploration of the town, my mind in turmoil as raced to come up with plans that wouldn’t get me in to any trouble but would allow me to help my friend all the same… but finding no luck!
