Chapter 14 Lorelei ! What a surprise ! I turned to see Silas approaching , his face lit up with excitement . Were you looking for me ? he asked , a playful grin on his lips . My companys office is just around the corner , I forced a laugh , shaking my head . No , no , I wasnt . Silass eyes fell on the tie I was holding . His grin widened as he reached out and took it from me , Qh , this is for me ? You shouldnt have ! His voice brimmed with enthusiasm as he admired the color . Topened my mouth to correct him , to tell him the tie wasnt for him , but before I could say anything , he was already pulling off his own tie . I love it , he saft , his hands fumbling with the new one . But … I think Ive forgotten how to tie it . I stared at him for a moment , unsure of what to say . The tie wasnt meant for him , but what harm would it do to let him have it ? I could always buy another one for Branwen later . I smiled , stepping closer to Silas . Youve forgotten how to tie a tie ? What happened to the alpha whos always so put together ? Silas chuckled softly , his cheeks flushing slightly . Its been so long since Ive tied one , I think Ive forgotten how to do it . Thats normal , married men often have their wives tie their ties for them , so they get rusty . The comment slipped out before I could stop myself . How did you know I was married ? Silas asked suddenly , his voice a little too eager , as if he was hoping I hadnt noticed . I tilted my head , giving him a knowing look . Youre the alpha , Silas . Plenty of women must have dreamed about being your Luna , but you chose someone early on . Its hard not to know . I fixed his tie and Silas stood up straigh , watching me with a curious smirk as if something amusing had just crossed his mind . He tilted his head slightly and asked , Really , Lorelei , would I be the man of your dreams ? The question caught me off guard , and for a moment , I just stared at him , unsure how to respond . His expression was expectant , as though my answer really mattered to him . I tried to keep my tone light and playful , even though something about the question felt too serious . Well , I said slowly , choosing my words carefully , even if you were my dream lover , what would happen ? You already have your own Luna . The effect of my words was immediate . Silas eyes brightened , and a strange excitement crept into his expression . He leaned forward slightly , his attention fixed entirely on me . For some reason , this made me nervous , though I wasnt sure why . Ugh , Lena , he said , rolling his eyes dramatically . You know , shes always making a fuss over the smallest things . Like yesterday she lost it because she found some hair on my suit . Can you believe that ? I dont even know whose hair it was ! He sighed , his exasperation clear , then added , If only she could be as gentle and considerate as you are . I laughed sheepishly , trying to shake off the discomfort I felt as he spoke . His words felt like a dangerous line we were both toeing , but I wasnt sure how to step back . I wasnt Lena , after all , and though his complaints were directed at her , I wasnt here to replace her . Silas , however , seemed genuinely touched by my reaction . He straightened up and asked , By the way , what are you doing here so early ? Were not meeting for dinner until later . I packed for a second . I couldnt possibly tell him that I had been looking for Branwen . The real reason I was here had nothing to do with Silas , but if I told him that , it would definitely lead to more questions . So , I forced a smile and shrugged . Oh , I was just wandering around , I said , pretending to be casual . I mustve arrived at your office without realizing it . 12:28 Alphas Regret : Magnificent Return of the Rejected Luna Chapter 14 He raised an eyebrow at me , then broke into a grin . Destiny , then , he said with a wink . I laughed , trying to push aside the awkwardness . The idea of destiny didnt sit well with me , especially not when Silas was involved . Before I could say anything more , Silas clapped his hands together , a sudden burst of enthusiasm lighting up his face . You know , he said , its still a while before dinner . How about we go for a swim ? I know a natural swimming pool nearby , and its beautiful . Perfect for a sunny day like this . A swim ? I hesitated for a moment . Yet , his excitement was infectious , and before I knew it , I found myself agreeing . Alright , I said , trying to sound enthusiastic . Why not ? We made our way to the swimming pool , which was nestled on a cliffside , surrounded by trees and overlooking a breathtaking view of the valley lqw . The pool was large , its waters sparkling under the sun . It was stunning . After changing into my swimming costume , I noticed Silas eyes lingering on me longer than usual . I knew what he was doing he was searching for scars , trying to confirm whether or not I was Rowena . He thought that if I bore the same marks as her , hed know for sure .
