“I wish I could meet him, you know.” Xenia said with a shy smile, staring at the flowers around them.
“Who?” Stefanos asked gruffly, picking up the flower crown he just made and placing it over Xenias head. 
Xenia rolled her eyes playfully, her scent turning sweeter, as she giggled at Stefanos flower crown. “The owner of the garden of course! I wish I could thank and tell him how grateful I’m for all the flowers he had gifted me.”
“He didn’t gift you those, you basically stole them from his garden Xenia.” Stefanos replied with a grunt and begin walking away, until it hit him about what he just said.
“I never told you I stole them, Adriano.”

Xenia. The girl who was currently lying on my arms, writhing in pain. I was caught up in a dilemma of where I should be taking her. Firstly, because I had no exact clue where the girl lived and secondly, if I decide to take her to my tower, it means I'm going to risk everything, including my identity. There was no way I could take her there, especially not when I am an Alpha and confining the girl at my home will never bring me peace. I don't mean that I can't control my urges; in fact I have been controlling them for years now without any problem. Yet, who knows what Xenia might bring into me, after everything she is making me feel?
