Chapter 61 - The Young Miss Strogueher (1/2)

The next day, Luke woke up on the Matriarch's couch in great pain. Luckily, Ayumi was no longer lying beside him because an embarrassing situation caught him by surprise.

Right after opening his eyes, he heard loud footsteps approaching the room's door, and a man entered the room, startling him.

”Luke?”

”Shiro?”

”Why are you naked?”

”Annnn... Heat.”

The guard with the big chin and even bigger muscles clenched his eyes and stared at Luke for a few moments until he let out a laugh and pointed at Luke as he said:

”You're a rascal! You're naughty!”

”What? Why?

”Speak up, it's the maid you're fucking, isn't it?” Shiro questioned while giving the half-wolf a weak slap on the shoulder.

”What do you mean?”

The big man stopped smiling and spoke: ”Well, the guards on the early shift commented that they heard loud moans coming from your room last week, and the maid sleeps in the next room.”

Blushing, Luke took a little time to respond, and as the seconds passed, the expression of doubt on his old friend's face became more transparent and more apparent.

”Hmph! Annn... You're right, that's it.” Luke replied after snorting.

He could hardly believe that he had made such a mistake in not remembering Martha, and there was no way he could tell Shiro that he was sleeping with his own employer. This moment made Luke realize that he was already up to his neck in mud in this deep pit.

Whatever happened to the Strogueher Family and Luke disappeared after a few, the suspicion on him would be too great.

”Ahhh! That's my boy! You've changed a lot, you know? I remember you and Meredith exchanging strokes in each other's ears and combing each other's syrup. With those simple caresses, you were already turning all red... That's one of the memories that made me want to meet you.

Luke didn't quite know what to answer. He just touched the man's shoulder and spoke:

”When all this is over, I promise I will take you to see Meredith and Matthew again.”

”All this what?”

”Nothing.” Luke said and blinked.

Then the half-wolf turned to grab his pants and put them on. Shiro was startled by the man's lack of nonchalance and left the room. Just after leaving Luke alone, the big man saw a girl with white hair and red eyes approaching.

”Excuse me, miss.” He spoke, signaling for her to stop. The girl had a pouty expression on her face as she pouted. ”Luke is busy right now.”

The girl glared angrily at the guard and ignored him, walking into the room. Nathalia had been apprehensive about Luke, so she could hardly believe that he woke up in the wee hours of the morning and didn't even have the nerve to warn her about it.

”Listen here! I am your companion and friend! Then you should have run to see me when you woke up!” She shouted after entering the living room.

However, as soon as she opened her eyes, she saw the half-wolf with his left leg slightly raised to put on his pants and a long, black coat hanging down.

Contrary to any possible scenario, Nathalia, this time, was not embarrassed like in the other awkward situations the two of them have met. In fact, it was like the exact first time they meet, when she asked to touch the man's fluffy ears.
