Chapter 123: Lilies

CREEKWOOD PACK

After they had cleaned themselves, they lay in bed looking at each other.

"Why are you looking at me?" Jax asked.

"And how did you know I was looking at you?" Ricciardo asked in return.

Jax just smiled and then he looked up at the ceiling.

"When did you know that you were attracted to me?" Ricciardo asked.

"That night I told you about my past, previously I suspected but it was that night I knew for sure."

THE CITY OF NEW LANTERNS

Lilian thought about what reply to give Alessandro. Alessandro was a good person and she couldn't deny her attraction to him but what if that was all it was, a mere attraction?

She had been quite lonely, but although Alessandro was a nice person, his status was going to be a problem. He was an influential Alpha and it would only be a matter of time before her past caught up with her.

"Lilian? What do you say?" Alessandro asked her after seeing that she remained quiet.
