Her Cold-Hearted Alpha novel Chapter 34

KIARA

Half an hour later , we had arranged the desserts on a tray . Raven had smothered her burnt cupcakes with so much icing you couldn’t even see the cake at all – they looked anything but appetising . The icing dripped down the sides , making me feel a little sick . I was going to feel sorry for anyone who tried them . I didn’t tell her that though . Maybe they’d pick up the smell and not taste them . Jasmin’s brownies looked good and so did Raihana’s cookies . ” I’ll do the honours . ” Jasmin was about to reach for the tray when Raihana stepped forward , her gorgeous black ringlets bouncing . ” I’ll do the honours . ” She said sweetly . ” I want to present this to my uncle and brother . ” I saw her eyes fill with slight sadness and I had a feeling she was probably remembering last night . ” Ok . ” Jasmin said , rolling her eyes .

She adjusted her dress and smoothed her hair out . We all trailed into the living room and I ran my fingers through my hair that was now almost dry . I felt his eyes on me and I looked up slowly , letting my fingers continue to run through my hair before I looked away . The room was large , with dark walls , black carpet and the large windows that had black curtains which were wide open .

There were black leather sofas , a coffee table , some canvases and a 60 – inch television on the wall . ” Ok , so you take a bite of everything , choose the winner and then they get the reward . ” Raihana explained . ” Perfect . ” Jasmin said , taking the seat next to Alejandro who was sat in the middle of the sofa , his legs sprawled out in front of him with a completely cold , ‘ I don’t give a fuck ‘ attitude .

While Rayhan was sat on the other sofa on one side . ” Ok , no hinting or anything . ” Raihana said , excitement clear on her face . I felt guilty for the trouble I caused last night . said , popping it into his mouth . ” Too dry . ” Jasmin’s face fell a little but she said nothing as she watched Alejandro , who didn’t speak . Rayhan grabbed a cupcake and Alejandro went for a cookie . ” These smell burnt … ” 11 ” They taste fine . ” Raihana said innocently . ” Meh … ” He shrugged and took a big bite . Oops ? The guys definitely took big bites … He gagged and spat it out into his hand . ” Who the fuck made such crap ?! ” Me and Raihana burst into laughter at the look of complete annoyance and unhappiness on Raven’s face , as she stood there hands now on her hips . ” They are not that bad ! The icing takes the edge off !

” She grumbled . ” I’m a werewolf ! Our senses are heightened ! Nothing can take the edge off ! ” He stood up and rushed out of the room , most likely to grab some water . I giggled as Raven grumbled something incoherent . ” He was an idiot to even risk it when you can smell that they’re completely charred . IT Alejandro remarked as he ate his cookie . ” Not bad . ” Raihana’s face lit up . Just then , Rayhan re -entered with a large glass of milk and took a blondie , as he grumbled that the burnt taste was lingering in his mouth . Still , it seemed he hadn’t learned his lesson , when he shoved a full square into his mouth .

My eyes were on Alejandro though , as he finally took a piece of the blondie , observing it for a moment before he bit into it . His eyes instantly went to me as he swallowed and I tried not to look at his Adams apple bopping behind those tattoos that covered his neck . ” These , whatever the fuck they are , are fucking delicious . ” He said in his deep voice . His comment sent my heart racing and m y stomach knotted . Raven smirked .
