"You should stop staring at me like thatâ Adryan says, his ocean blue
eyes still glued onto the laptop he had been working on, a pair of
glasses resting on the bridge of his nose.
His words startling Adeena. Adeena was in Adryanâs office, she was
sitting on a love seat which faced towards where Adryan sat on his chair
working on his laptop on God knows what for the past few hours. He
hadn't said anything beside greet her when she came in, his ignorance
annoyed her, but she kept quiet, pretending to read a book for the past
half an hour while staring at him work. Adryan was an extremely good-
looking, with him growing a scruff over the span of a week, and the
glasses only contributed more to his looks.

(Adryan with glasses, imagine him with blue eyes)
His blue eyes staring at her made her nervous and shy all of a sudden.
"Me? Staring at you? Please" She rolls her eyes to look more believing,
"You wish" she says.
He stares at her some more, in a scrutinizing manner of his that made
her body heat up. He doesn't speak anything for a few moments, she
watches with outmost attention as he stood up from his office chair,
approaching her with slow strides.
He stops when he reached her, towering over her as she still sat on the
love seat with her hands clutching the book of which she didn't even
know the name of, in a death grip. Furthermore, he bends a little so
that now his face was close to hers. Her breathing pattern turns uneven
as his blue eyes level with her brown ones. His hands coming to hold
hers, Adeenaâs lip part in shock.
"I would've believed you if you were holding the book the right way."
he says, his eyes holding a glint in them, his voice filled with humor. He
takes the book out of her grip and turning it upright, he places them
back into her hands, Adryan found Adeena's shocked face humorous.
Shaking his head with a small smile in his face, he poster straightens
when he scents a particular scent heading his way, his body
immediately turning warm as the scent of strawberries neared.
Adeena's shock evaporated into thin air when she watched with
confusion as Adryan straightened himself immediately, looking alert all
of a sudden. She was just about to ask what it was when he moves
towards the door, and open with such eagerness which Adeena had
never seen on him
Adryan immediately opens the door to his office, knowing that Jade
was now directly outside his office, his Lycan side had helped him
detect her scent from miles away.
Jade's green eyes moves to his immediately, one hand holding the
container, while the other was raised in a fist, about to knock on his
door when he had startled for the second time that day by opening it.
She was surprised to see him wearing glasses, it suited him quite well.
"Hi" Jade says, not knowing what to say.
"Hey, come in" Adryan steps back a bit so that she could enter. Jade
walks past him into his office, taking in the well furnished setting, there
was a bookshelf taking one side of the wall, filled with countless books
with thick binding leading Jade to believe they might be on werewolf
history and other supernatural creatures, Jade's eyes taken in his office,
moving over the mahogany table spread with numerous papers and an
opened laptop. When she turns back to Adryan she is shocked to find
Adeena standing behind him.
"Adeena, hi" Jade says, smiling in acknowledgement.
Adeena had immediately stood up, so that she stood behind Adryan,
his musky scent surrounding her and giving her comfort, she watched
as Adryan's eyes stayed glued to Jade's as she looked around his office
space, and suddenly her green eyes are on her.
"Hi Jade" Adeena replies, a pretentious smile on her face.
"Adryanâ Adeena says, causing Adryan to turn back and look at her.
"I have to leave now, Blaine has asked me to come by, so I should get
going." Adeena says, Adryan nods her head at that and turns back
around to face Jade. Adeena's face darkens at his lack of response, but
she doesn't waste any second to leave immediately. She didn't want to
spend any time in a room where the guy she loves is going to ogle at
someone else.
Jade found Adeena's sudden departure kind of off, she felt like Adeena
was lying about Blaine wanting for her in the pack clinic.
"Hey" a deep voice brings her out of her reverie, only to find a pair of
heated eyes trained on her already.
Jade extends the container holding the food towards him, his eyes
switch towards the container before switching back to her.
"II didn't see much of you this past week, so I thought I'd bring you
something to eat.â She says, he takes the container from her without
uttering a word, confusing her, but that is forgotten when he clamps his
large hand around one of her wrists, directing her towards the direction
of his desk. Adryan places the food container on the table and turns
back around.
"Sit" he says. Jade eyes the single office chair and turns towards him in
question.
"There is only one chair here to sit." she says, she watched as Adryan
sat on his chair, patting his thigh he says, "Now you do". Jade's eyes
turn to the size of a golf ball when she hears his words, her cheeks
reddening immediately.
"Are you serious?" She asks incredulously.
"Dead Seriousâ he says, but his were filled with mirth, her lips part at his
words.
"I- Uh, I have to pick Adonis from the nursery. I'll see you later.â Jade
says, immediately making up an excuse and leaving his office, Adryan
watched with an amused smile on his face as Jade practically ran from
his office with embarrassment at his words. He loved saying stuff like
this and see her be shocked and then turn a lovely shade of red, which
complimented her skin.
Adryan's heart warms when he looks at the container, and by the
heavenly scent that lingered in the air, he could immediately tell that it
was lasagna. His favorite.
Adryan's mouth waters, and he was about to dig in when the scent of
citrus and apple's hits his nose.
"I never knew I would ever get to see the 'Big Bad Alphaâ smileâ A new
voice chimes, causing Adryan to slump back in his office chair as his
eyes connected with a pair of hazel and blue eyes, "And that too
showing all his thirty-two teeth in all its glory" Violet says dramatically
causing Adryan to roll his eyes at her words.
"Shut up" he says.
"How much of that did you hear while eavesdropping?â he asks Violet
and Brian.
"Oh from the part where you asked her to sit on your lap and when she
practically ran from your officeâ Brian says causing Adryan to groan.
"I'm never going to hear the end of it" he says to himself.
"Damn right" Brian and Violet chime together.
