Naked Shane.
Adams’ POV
Morning came with gloomy weather as the rain fell non-stop.
Lilith was still asleep when I woke up. After taking my bath and getting dressed for the day’s activity, I kissed her on the lips as she slept, before stepping out.
Last night, while my brothers and I were at the meeting, I noticed her presence, long before she even got to the door and peeked.
I smelt her scent from far away and looked at the faces of others to know if they also did, but found nothing to indicate such in their countenances.
Ever since the gift of the ancient Lycans, as my brother called it, was activated, I have been able to detect sounds and scents far away.
I looked at the door when she was there, because I knew someone might see her. Fortunately, she hid and was quick enough to get out before Ben caught her.
Even though she was the Luna of the pack, there were things which we expected from her.
Things like being responsible, obedient and able to satisfy her Alpha.
Failure to do these things could result in serious punishment which I could prevent, but the stigma would linger for a while.
My heart almost leaped into my mind as Ben left the room angrily. How she managed to run, I wasn’t sure. But, she was quite smart.
She must have waited for so long and became worried when I didn’t show back up, knowing the kind of brothers I had.
I found it cute when she pretended to sleep immediately when I entered the room. I purposely didn’t touch her or move closer to her, but went to sleep as soon as possible.
The night before, Ronan had told me he had an urgent development he wanted to share with me, but I would have to wait till the next morning.
It was one of the reasons I stood up as soon as it was day break, curious to find out what he had for me.
I walked to his room and attempted to knock when the door opened, and I knocked on him instead with the ring on my finger.
“Ouch!” He screamed, rubbing his forehead.
“I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to…” I tried to apologize but he cut me short. The apologetic part of me died that moment as anger rose within me from the pit of my belly.
“How d…”
“Shhh. Do you hear something?” He asked, making me stop talking.
He pointed his hand towards a particular direction and I followed his hands. I was so distracted, I didn’t hear.
The clanking of metal and swift movement of feet caught my attention as we both followed the sound.
It was coming from my father’s room, making me curious. Was there a thief? What would anyone want to steal from the room?
“Oh no!” I gasped, his golden staff. Its value was priceless and anyone who had access to it could become rich in an instant.
We moved swiftly, trying not to bring attention to ourselves in order to catch the thief.
The door of the room was closed, but we heard the movements louder.
I looked at him and nodded my head, raising three fingers. He understood and waited as I counted… one… two… three, and “bang!” We burst in, to catch the thief.
We froze the moment we entered the room as we saw what was going on. My brother Shane was shirtless, wearing a pair of underwear which stopped a few inches in his lap, just after his torso.
He wore a pair of socks and held a broom and a dustpan in his hand. I noticed that the bed was neatly made, and dust was all over the room.
On the bed was my father’s golden staff, lying undisturbed.
He had a shocked expression on his face as he stared from me to Ronan. “What are you both doing here? Close the door immediately!”
Ronan rushed to close the door as he turned his back to Shane. I, on the other hand, kept staring at the ground, short of words to say.
“We… I… em…”
“You what boy?” He asked, holding the broom to my face. “Do you want your wife or any lady to see me like this, what if I was completely naked?” His face had a grim expression on it, one which made my heart triple its beat nervously.
“We are sorry big brother, we thought someone broke in,” I apologized.
He looked at me for a while before diverting his attention to Ronan, who remained standing in his position, facing the door.
“Would you turn around already? Do I look like a woman to you?”
“I’m sorry, my Lord,” he apologized.
“Just turn around already will you,” he said, his face curving into a smirk.
Ronan turned around and we both stared at him. He had a well sculpted body, which made me envious.
Despite his age, he still looked twenty-two, which was not common. Ben was even beginning to have a pot-belly.
“What are you doing?” I asked.
“What does it look like I’m doing? Clean the room, of course, since you have all neglected it.”
“Oh!” I sighed. “That explains the um… broom and the dust all over the place.This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
I looked at Ronan, and he looked at me as we both smiled at each other.
“Good morning brother,” I greeted him, remembering I had not done so yet. Ronan also greeted him and bowed slightly.
“Yea… yea. Get out of here, you two. Don’t you have jobs to do?”
We all chuckled as I and Ronan left the room. We walked down the stairs to grab breakfast when something interesting caught my attention.
Ben’s door was unlocked. It was either he left for somewhere in a hurry or was inside, and didn’t remember to lock the door.
I signaled to Ronan to wait while I checked it out. I walked past the room, peeking into it. From the little line of the door which revealed the inside of the room, it was empty.
I activated my wolf hearing but heard nothing. Since he wasn’t around, it was a great time to search his room and find out for anything suspicious hidden there.
I signaled to Ronan to wait while I checked the room. He nodded, and I went in, scanning everywhere and everything my eyes and hands could touch as fast as possible.
“What are you doing in my room? Ben’s voice rang through and I froze. Slowly, I turned to find him sitting in a corner I didn’t notice earlier, and met his flaming eyes, boring into mine.
