Alexa coughed softly while standing behind Ryan in the garden, hoping to get his attention. However, she frowned upon realizing that he seemed deeply absorbed in his own thoughts, oblivious to her presence.
Glancing around, Alexa scanned the area but found no one else nearby. With a determined step forward, she gently placed her hand on Ryan's shoulder, aiming to make him face her.
"Alpha Ryan," Alexa called out slowly, causing him to blink and react swiftly by grabbing her wrist, prepared to defend himself against the person who had touched him without permission.
“How dare you to touch me...” Ryan's sentence was abruptly interrupted as he caught sight of Alexa, causing him to immediately release her hand and take a step back.
"What?" Ryan questioned, a puzzled expression on his face.
