Chapter 24 The Wolf Statue

• They stayed with Teja for a while before leaving. Belle still couldn't believe she was going to stay with Maxton in the same space. She felt lust for him now and she could only imagine how it would be when they were in the same house. Her mind wandered to that kiss they'd shared at the club and she shivered at the pleasantness. She wished it'd repeat itself and if possible, move on to more.
• All through the drive home with Belle, Maxton was giddy with excitement. His outward countenance was his normal composed self but inwards, he and his wolf were having a field day. His thought kept running to scenes of him fucking her but he fought them back. He was only taking her to his place to make sure she was safe, he thought to himself and his wolf laughed at him.
• The journey was a silent one and Belle was grateful cause she was scared if she spoke, her voice would betray her nervousness. She fiddled with her hands and even bit her nails, a habit she hadn't done in years.
