StarNovelChapter 169 It tooka moment to realize that the clothes she had thrown atwere not the ones I had worn earlier. As I pulled the navy-blue and dark-green, striped polo over my head, I knew she had to have dug around in my closest choosing the outfit, and I knew from the way she dressed and carried herself, that appearances were important to Elise. My mate had just groomed me. I didn't know if she was even aware of it, but toit was just another sign of acceptance. I was going to get harassed for the perma-grin glued to my face, but I really didn't care either.
I had barely pulled on my pants when there was a knock at the door. Sending up a silent thanks to Liam for the warning, I went to answer it. I knew my mate would not have been pleased if they had arrived and I was still getting dressed.
No surprise, Lily and Kelsey were at my front door. As I turned around and welcomed them in, I saw Elise casually sitting on the chaise with her bare feet tucked up under her. It caught my breath seeing her like that. She just looked comfortable and right at home, in my home, and my heart did all sorts of crazy dancing that I'm sure the guys would giveshit for if they knew.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLily was already far too comfortable at my place, and it had been Kelsey's before I had moved in, so awkwardly, I was the odd one out suddenly, in my own home. Staying out of the way, I let the girls catch up and talk, excusing myself to the kitchen. Fortunately it wasn't long before the boys arrived.
"Jesus Christ, I didn't think you lads would ever get here." The girls were giggling and talking in hushed tones in the living room.
"Dude, this sucks. Having Lily hang around is bad enough, but Kelsey and Elise together are like estrogen overload," Chase complained.
I laughed. Kyle punched him. Liam just rolled his eyes "Can we convert the basement to a man cave if E's gonna be hanging out around here much?" "I heard that," she yelled from the next room.
I laughed. "Smooth. I'll talk to her and see." "Oh my God, you're whipped already?" Chase exclaimed loudly enough to make those in the other room laugh. I may have blushed a little, but I didn't care. Whatever Elise wanted, she'd have. If she wanted to move in withtoday, I'd say, "Hell, yeah!" But I knew it was going to have to be all on 13:59 Billionaire Alk Chapter 169 her terms and I was going to have to be okay with that. Whipped? Maybe, but that was fine by me! The girls joined us in the kitchen for pizza. I still couldn't get over the fact Elise liked pepperoni, mushroom, and pineapple, too. I grinned at her and she smacked me.
"Don't laugh at my pizza," she warned. "You didn't have to get a large though, since I'll only eat a slice or two." "Good, then there will be plenty left for me," I said, reaching around her to grab a slice. She glared at me. "What?" "E, it really is his favorite too," Liam intervened. "He practically lives off the stuff." "Really?" she asked, sounding amazed.
"Yeah, no idea why these fecking losers find it odd. Best damn pizza ever." The rest of the evening remained light and casual fun. I think all of us needed that. Lily and Kelsey were quite protective of my girl, but overall it was just another day with the Westins, only better because my mate was there, too.
They stayed until late in the evening. It wasn't uncommon for the boys to just crash over. Not Kyle, of course, but Chase and Liam regularly stayed over. I wasn't sure what was going to happen this time.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmKyle and Kelsey were the first to leave. Liam was in training to take over his position as CEO of the Westin Foundation, but Kyle was still working full-tand handling all Pack business as the new Alpha. Kelsey was his administrative assistant and worked just as long and hard. She would submit to her duties as Pack Mother once Liam was up and running and had chosen her replacement. In the meantime, she and Kyle were both extremely busy.
"I'm heading out, too. That woman is a slave driver," Liam joked, pointing behind Kelsey's back.
"I heard that," she warned on her way out the door.
Chase looked at me, then at Elise who hadn't made a motion to move e at all, then The content is on atall novelenglish.net! back at me. "I guess I'm out too, since I rode over with Liam."
Liam raised an eyebrow at me, but didn't question it. I hadn't told Chase he couldn't stay He must have felt the shift in dynamics with Elise's presence. I stood and began to tidy up the mess they had left behind.
"I'll get that in a little bit, Patrick. Don't worry about it." 12-50 Chapter 169
