Chasing His Kickass Luna Back by Jane Above Story

#Chapter 13 – Engagement

He looms over me, his jaw clenched. His anger seems to win out over his attempt to shield his

emotions from me. The sheer power radiating off him makes me want to back down and submit to him.

I shake my head to clear my thoughts and take a step back. He might be an Alpha, but that doesn’t

mean I should let him get away with everything. I don’t need to submit to him, and I have no intention of

Mitchell, and he’s great. He’s my partner, and he really cares about me. No matter what, he believes in

me. He thinks I’m competent and loyal.”

I only say the last part to get under his skin, but I can’t help myself. It’s not like he doesn’t deserve it

after everything.

his anger. I wait quietly for him to sort himself out.

I was just as surprised when Adam proposed to me, but I haven’t second guessed my answer. Even

though we haven’t been going out for very long, I really like him. I think we could be really good

together, and we have time to get to know each other, anyway. Things move fast in our world, and we

both want the same things. That’s what really matters.
