Switched Bride True Luna novel Chapter 13

Chapter 13

Still, he made my heart pound.

“Why’d you come in here?” I asked. He put his hands in his pockets and flashed a small

smile.

“I had a feeling,” he said simply. I have a feeling there is nothing that doesn’t get by this

man.

“What kind of feeling?”

“That you might need some help.” I don’t know why, but I was a little offended. I could

have handled all of this myself.

Yet, it felt good that he was here. He made me feel… stronger.

“Thanks,” I said. He motioned around the store.

“Pick out anything you like. Let’s get at least,” he thought for a moment, his eyes scanning around the shop, “ten dresses. Although you can get as many that catch your eye.”

I nodded and started to walk around the store again. I saw a few I liked, but looking at the price tag almost made me choke.

These dresses cost thousands of dollars each! In my wildest dreams, I would never make a

purchase like this.

I turned to discuss it with Logan, but he held up his hand to stop me.

“Don’t look at the price tags. Just pick out what you like.”

“How can I not?” I said, holding up a muted pink dress with a ruffled collar. I flipped the price tag up towards him.

“This is too expensive!” I put the dress back on the rack. “Let’s go somewhere else.”

“Well, I’m not most women. This is spending more money on dresses than everything I own combined. It’s just too much.” I pressed my fingers to my temples, frustrated. I can’t even imagine spending so much money on clothes.

“You insult me. As an Alpha, it is my duty to provide for you as my Luna.”

The entire idea of someone spending money on me made me uncomfortable. Even Michael, the man I thought I was going to spend the rest of my life with, refused to spend even a penny on me. He had always said any money we had should be saved for our future together.

“Can’t you provide something that doesn’t cost so much? That money can be used for something better.”

Dresses are not necessary, I never saw a need to be so extravagant. I’d rather spend that money helping people.

“Cost isn’t an issue. This is what all high–society women do.”

“Maybe, but that’s also part of their job. The more grand a dress, the greater their

accomplishments are.”

“Do you think that you don’t have those kinds of accomplishments?” Logan asked. He took

a few steps toward me.

“Well… not exactly. There are better things to do than dress up fancy. Dresses like this are

no more than an expensive burden to me.”

“Forget about the past, Emily. Right now, your job is to stay by my side, as my partner and Luna. Think of this as an investment in your accomplishments to come.”

I thought it over carefully. Since Logan and I are in a contractual relationship, it did make sense to dress me up like the upper close. After all, I had to look the part.

It made me uncomfortable anyway. It was another reason to be sure I paid Logan back every
