"Why are your hands so cold?" she mumbled into the bed. "Not that I'm complaining, it feels good. I'm so sore, so don't stop" she adds. But there was no response just the continuous hands massaging at her sore areas. Lena didn't bother talking after that, as she laid there enjoying the glorious rub down her mate was giving her.
After about an hour of her muscles getting sweet blissful much needed attention. She asked Damian if he would start a hot bath for her. But once again he did not respond to her, which she thought was weird. She felt the bed move followed by a loud smack, which pain followed right after on her behind, making her yelp in surprise. She turns over rubbing her sore area, seeing Damians figure enter the bathroom. Lena just smiles to herself falling back onto the bed feeling less sore. After a few moments, she decided to head to the bathroom. Hopping off the bed in a better mood, she begins undressing herself. She was a couple of steps from the bathroom door when her bedroom door opens, making her come to a halt.
"What" Damian questions wondering why Lena was giving him such an odd look.
"How-wait. You were" she stumbled through her words. "What the, how did you get out there, when you were just in the bathroom? I just seen you want in there?" She questions in disbelief.
"What are you talking about? I just got in here!" he says eyeing her like she was crazy.
"No! you were just rubbing me down for the past hour, before I asked you to start the bath for me" she says annoyed.
"Have you been drinking?" He asks.
"No" she snaps. "I know what I'm talking about Damian, so don't play games with me"
"How much I love touching you is no secret, and I definitely wouldn't lie about giving you any type of massage. I've been in my office all day actually" He tells her not liking the conversation. "I just got done with my last contract, and came right up here to check on you" Damien explained to her. She looked at him with squinted eyes, trying to see if there was any sign that he was lying or playing some cruel joke on her. But she quickly knew he was being straight with her.
Damian stood there as Lena's confused face went to a horror one. She suddenly turned white as a ghost making him start to panic. He wasted no time running over to her side, and pulling her into his arms. "What's wrong?" he questions rubbing her back, hoping to sooth her.
"Now thinking about it" she says thinking it over. "It felt like your touch, so I didn't question it" she shrugged. "I was so exhausted from today's workout I didn't bother to look or anything. The massage felt good on my sore muscles" she began to explain, but came to a stop when he growled at the fact she enjoyed someone's else's touch. "Don't even start" she tells him pointing her finger at him.
Damian didn't care what she said, because he was furious that someone who wasn't him touched what was his. That fact that Lena didn't notice it wasn't him, only added gas to the fire exploding inside him. They both stood there staring each other confused, and angry about the situation.
"I'm calling a pack meeting now! To find out who dared came into our room, and touched what is mine. Then I'll make sure they suffer a very slowly death" He seethes. Damian wasted no time mind linking his pack members to meet him out front in five minutes.
Everyone was out front of the pack house speaking among themselves wondering what has their Alpha on edge.
Once Damian took a step outside everyone went silent, giving their Alpha their full attention. Lena stood off to the side as Damian explained the situation. He told them whoever it was, to come forward right away. He might rethink their punishment. It was a good size pack, and Damian didn't want to waste time questioning each person.
