Filed To Story: Veiled Desires of the Alpha King Novel
The machines were beeping loudly, but both Dayson and Talia were lost in the haze of their arousal and didn’t notice anything out of place until the door of their room flew open and Travis stormed in.
“Ah!”, Talia screamed while pulling the cover higher to conceal her br***ts.. Yes, Dayson’s torso was obscuring Travis’s view of Talia’s body, but that only made it more awkward.
Dayson realized that noisy machines were attached to him, and he yanked the cables from his body, making the whole room fall into deafening silence.
Travis stared at his feet and pretended not to see Talia scrambling to cover herself, but Dayson’s vicious aura was difficult to ignore.
Dayson was ready to jump on Travis and hurt him badly, but Talia was holding onto him, and Dayson didn’t want to expose her by moving away.
Travis was unsure if it was safer to leave or stay, and before he could decide, Dayson growled at him.
“Why are you here?”
Travis hesitated. It was obvious what Dayson and Talia were about to do, and the fact that Dayson’s increased heart rate caused machines to go crazy, confirmed Travis’s guess.
Travis knew that he interrupted something that shouldn’t be interrupted, but with the alarms ringing, he thought that Dayson was in critical condition, and the poor doctor was already here. Now what?
“You are awake. I need to check your condition.”, Travis said stoically.
“Check later!”, Dayson snapped.
Seeing that Travis stood rooted in the spot, Dayson thought about sending the good Doctor to survival training in the mountains. He could join coach Keith and the soccer team.
Travis’s instincts told him not to oppose Dayson, but he needed to do his job. How can he persuade a horny Alpha to listen?
Travis got an idea “If your results are fine, you can go home.”
Dayson’s frown deepened. He was fine, more than fine, until Travis showed up.
“I want to go home. We should get checked”, Talia said to Dayson in a whisper. She wanted confirmation that Dayson’s wounds truly healed and that there are no side effects from wolfsbane.
Dayson closed his eyes and exhaled sharply. “OK.” He waved at Travis impatiently. “Hurry up! And get us some clothes”
“I never saw anything like it. This is amazing!”, Travis exclaimed while looking at Talia’s and Dayson’s test results.
“Is that a good amazing?”, Talia asked while trying to figure out why was Travis so excited. She was behind the privacy screen, putting on a t-shirt and pants that nurses brought for her to change into.
The clothes she was brought in were dirty.
“If I didn’t examine you myself earlier today, I would assume that you were not hurt at all.”, Travis responded.
“Since we are good, we can leave. Right?” Dayson was eager to leave and maximize his time with Talia. His mate. Now that she knew they are mates, there were so many things for them to do. Like sex, talk about babies, sex, her Luna ceremony, sex…
Travis really wanted to do more tests, but he could see that Dayson’s displeasure was growing with every moment of silence. “You can leave. But come back tomorrow for another”
“We will come when we get time.”, Dayson cut him off and turned to Talia who stepped out from behind the privacy screen. “Let’s go home.”
Talia looked at Dayson who was wearing only a pair of shorts and then asked Travis, “Don’t you have a t-shirt to give him?”
“I don’t need it.” Dayson was used to walking around topless. It was nothing new. Besides, nudity was normal for werewolves.
Talia narrowed her eyes at him. “Really? Then, I will remove my top.”
Dayson couldn’t believe it. “What?”
Talia pursed her l*ps stubbornly. “If you can go out like that, so can I.”
Talia clutched the edge of her t-shirt like she wanted to remove it, and Dayson was quick to hold her hands.
Dayson guessed that Talia was bluffing. She is shy and there was no way she would walk around exposed, but Dayson knew that Talia was trying to make a point and he had no intention to anger her.
“Travis, find me a t-shirt.”, Dayson said, and Travis hid his laughter behind a cough.
Travis wanted to t**se Dayson. The almighty Alpha found his match, but Travis knew that if he says that aloud, he would get punished, so he kept that for himself.
…
Talia and Dayson returned to the packhouse in time for dinner.
Before entering the packhouse, Dayson stood in front of Talia and looked at her seriously.
“I need to tell you one thing.”, he said. “Maya and Jaeden know we are mates.”
Talia stared at Dayson in disbelief. “You told them and not me?”
“I didn’t tell anyone. The two of them guessed based on my behavior.”, Dayson quickly said in his defense. It was the almost truth. They guessed, but Dayson still told Jaeden. Talia didn’t need to know this small detail.
Talia was curious. “You acted differently with me?”
“I brought you home, arranged for you to stay on the third floor, cared about your wellbeing, and modified my schedule so that we can spend time together. I never did that before, for anyone.”
Dayson wanted to say that she can ask Maya, but he was aware that Maya could blabber about his previous behavior, and that could backfire big time.
“I know I made mistakes, kitten. And I will probably make more. Now that you know we are mates, I hope you will tell me when I mess up something. I was an ass who never cared for a female. You are my first.”
Talia liked that she was his first in something, but she had a condition, “I need you to promise that you won’t hide things from me. If something is related to me, or us, I want you to tell me.”
“I can do that.”, Dayson said and made a cross on his ch*st with his index fi**ger, to indicate his sincerity.
“And no double standards.”, Talia added. “We are equal. If you can do something, so can I. If you want to walk around half-naked, think if you would be OK with me doing the same thing.”
