Chapter 187
I chewed the inside of my cheek and then nodded .
I guess it did answer my question ; this was only sex , and he only had that one thing on his mind when he suggested this little arrangement .
I knew it wasnt anything more than that , but still , it made my stomach hurt a little .
There was still a part of me that hoped maybe he did feel something more for me and that this wasnt just sex .
But I was only fooling myself .
There you go , Beautiful , Chester said , bringing me out of my thoughts as he slid a plate of food in my direction .
Coffee , Gavin ordered , his nostrils flaring .
Chester nodded as he put a plate in front of him and then went to grab a cup of coffee .
Gavins eyes followed Chester the entire time , and I could feel the tension in the room , though I wasnt sure why there was so much of it .
Gavin had no right to act like this ; it was strange , to say the least .
When Chester slid two mugs in front of us and filled them to the top with coffee , Gavin dismissed him for the morning .
Even Chester had enough sense in him not to argue .
We ate in silence and once we finished , the kitchen aids were the ones who cleaned .
Ill take you to school , he told me as he grabbed his coat off the hook .
I can have Leroy take me , I told him ..
Just come on , he murmured , grabbing my arm and gulling me away from the kitchen .
Careful Alpha Landry , I said teasingly .
One might think you actually like me if you keep acting possessively .
He didnt reply , he just shook his head .
I chuckled as I sat in the car .
We talked for a little while as we and drove to my school , but for the most part , it was fairly quiet .
He told me Leroy would pick me up bring me to the villa later .
Now that Nan knows just about everything , I was able to confide in her a little about it this morning before class .
I told her how confusing it was for me to be spending this time with Gavin , not knowing exactly where I stood .
One minute he was acting cold like this was no big deal , and the next he was being possessive and not wanting other men to flirt or even look at me .
I didnt understand him .
I cant believe you are actually sleeping with him , Nan chuckled , shaking her head .
Maybe hes just as confused .
I pondered that for a while during the day and decided to just let it go for right now .
True to his words , Leroy picked me up and brought me to the villa .
I wasnt expecting a run in with Irene today , but she stood in front of me with her arms folded across her chest, blocking my way into the parlor where I typically met Matt for our tutoring sessions .
You cant go in there today , she said .
My father is busy with the film crew Oh , I wasnt aware they were using the parlor today , I said , glancing at the time .
Is Matt elsewhere ? Maybe in his room ? She murmured .
She glanced over her shoulder and pushed the door open slightly so I could see into the room .
Gavin sat on the couch with none other than Skyla Singlaire seated on his right .
She was just as beautiful in person as she was in magazines and on TV .
Her hands were on his arm , and she was giggling at something that was said by someone in the room .
The sight of them together , so close , made my blood go cold .
Dont they make such a beautiful couple ?
