The rescued Luna

Chapter 6

Nova's POV:  

It had been a week since Caine and Atlas had their argument and we hadn't had a dinned together since. Luke and Nico told me it was normal and they would get over it soon so I left them alone. Caine had only told me not to leave the pack house and spent the rest of his time in his office. Atlas had apparently taken time off to take Jessie and Zach on a holiday but they were hopefully back today. This however meant Luke and Nico shared the beta duties which left me alone. The female gamma Layla was never in the pack house so I hadn't spoken to her since I arrived.  

I was bored on house arrest but Caine just waved me off all the time. I tried growling, being calm, being annoying, being needy and I even tried taking his paperwork but he just shook his head and sent me away. Nico and Luke had apparently been told not to speak to me unless it is an emergency and they were doing a good job at it. I sighed and stared at the ceiling when I had an idea.  

I jumped off my bed and ran to change into more public appropriate clothing before slipping out my room. I made my down the hall until I was outside Caine's room. I put my ear to the door and listened but there wasn't any movement. I smiled and slipped into his room, quietly closing the door behind me. I stood and looked around before heading to his draws.  

I dug around in the stuff but there was only paperwork and pictures. I looked at a picture and recognised the young girl on the side. She had a cut on her arm but other then that she looked healthy. I tucked the photo in my pocket and moved onto the next draw. I kept searching but nothing came up. I moved to his clothes draw and dug through, trying to find something. I growled and kept searching until I got to his underwear draw. I scrunched my nose and took the draw out, tipping it out on the floor. I looked around but the only thing that wasn't his underwear was a small necklace with a star engraved on the back. I smiled and stared at it before quickly putting everything back.  

I huffed and sat on the floor before looking over at the draws at the end of his bed. I walked over and opened the draw. It was filled with sex toys and weird ties and gags. I scrunched my nose and quickly shut the draw, not even daring to touch them. I opened the second and gagged when I saw a bin with used condom and rubbish and a pot of unopened condoms beside it. I slammed the draw shut and gagged again. 

"Having fun are we?" I spun around to see Caine with a massive smirk. He was leaning against the door frame with his arms crossed over his bare chest. His chest had a scar of four claw marks but the rest was empty. They were short but deep and each one was the same length. 

"Nova I get your artwork is amazing but I asked you a question." I looked up his face and he had sweat dripping off him.  

"I did that. Shit I'm sorry. Wait when?" He frowned and walked over crouching down in front of me and grinning. He grabbed my hand and I tried to pull away but he kept hold of me. He brought my hand to the scars and dragged my finger down it, smiling to himself as I watched my hand. He pulled my hand away and leaned closer until his face was barely an inch away.  

"When you attacked me in the car on the first night. Atlas thought it was hysterical that I had been attacked by such a small she wolf. But tell me firecracker, what were you looking for?" I leant back and looked around but Caine took my chin in his fingers and forced me to look at him. I licked my lip and Caines eyes looked down. 

"Money. I wanted to go shopping for some clothes and get to know Jessie and Layla. I don't have any clothes of my own so was hoping you had money I could use. I'll pay you back when I get a job or something. It doesn't matter though I'll just go back to my room I was just bored really and thought shopping would cure my bordem. Just forget I asked about it." Caine had a tender smile before leaning back and walking over to his bed. He reached under the mattress and pulled out a black card with gold writing.
