“Okay…”
I wheeled myself towards the study. Xander was stunned, then couldn’t help but chuckle. He didn’t stop me.
I finished all the work he had given me in his study; it was already 10 pm. Perhaps because I had eaten too much, I kept fighting off sleepiness. When I finished, my eyelids were drooping.
“Mr. Shaw, I’m going home now.”
As I wheeled myself out, yawning repeatedly, my wheelchair veered off course and bumped into the coffee table. My knee was hit, affecting my wound. Instantly, my drowsiness vanished.
Xander quickly got up. Seeing my pained expression, “Did you hurt
your wound?”
He crouched down and without a word, lifted my skirt to check my wound, just in case it reopened, and we needed to call a doctor.
I gasped.“I hurt it a little, but the wound shouldn’t be teared up.”
After checking and confirming that there was no bleeding, Xander’s eyes shifted from my wound to my slender, fair, and smooth legs. A fragrant scent wafted into his nostrils.

We were silent along the way. Xander sent me home and left immediately, without a moment’s delay. I watched the man walk away, a little puzzled, feeling like if he’d stayed a second longer, I would have held him back…
Just then, my phone rang. Xander was waiting for the elevator outside. While I was checking my phone, the elevator arrived with a ding. Two residents from different floors could either be taking the same elevator, or… one resident could be going up while encountering another resident on a higher floor who was also going up…
Like this moment.
The elevator doors opened, revealing Jason, drunk and flushed, facing the expressionless Xander. Their eyes met. Both were surprised.
Xander’s expression was cold. How did he have the code for this floor? Did I give it to him?
“You…!”
Jason was drunk and slow–witted, but seeing the elevator stop on 13, and thinking of me living on 13, he was instantly enraged. He stepped out of the elevator and grabbed Xander’s collar.“Why are you at my partner’s place? What are you doing here!”
The thought of me sleeping with another werewolf fueled his anger like a frenzied blade.

I heard the commotion outside. In a daze, I seemed to have heard Jason’s voice… No wheeled myself out to see.

As soon as I went out, I saw Xander push Jason to the ground, waving him away with disdain. Noticing me, his eyes turned icy as he glanced at me.“Since you allow him into your home, why bother with so many
tricks?”
