Chapter 88Alexa's POVI didn't notice when the carriage stopped. It seemed like we'd stopped for a while because I could see some people already waiting for us outside. I pull away from him and adjust my gown awkwardly. The Alpha gets out of the carriage and holds out his hand for me.“Shall we?” he asks.“We shall,” I reply, giving him my hand. We walk hand in hand toward the people waiting outside. I could see Deren among them. He smiles widely.“Brother,” he said, coming towards the Alpha with his arms wide open. The Alpha ignores him and walks towards a young lady with long fiery red hair and green eyes. She has little freckles that frame her face. Her red hair makes her stand out in front of everyone else present.“Darcey,” he calls out with a smile. The lady walks towards him, and he hugs her, twirling her around. The lady chuckles happily. They both walk towards the sulky Deren. Everyone tried to stifle their laughter.“Traitor, how could you ignore me like that?” Deren whines
Chapter 89Alpha Kai's POVI woke up this morning beside Alexa. I didn't get much sleep last night. Her scent and presence kept giving me sleepless nights and I don't know why. I've tried really hard to suppress these feelings, but lately, it keeps getting harder to suppress them any longer. I had carried her from the edge of the bed, afraid she might fall and hurt herself. I stared at her face for a while, tracing her eyebrows, nose, and soft lips with my finger. I leaned down to feel her soft lips against mine but restrained myself. I got up from the bed quickly like I had just been burnt. What the hell is happening to me and who keeps calling my name like that?“Kai!” Deren calls, shaking my arm. I jolt out of my reverie. “What happened? I've been calling you for a while now,” he said. Right. I was waiting for Deren in his office, and somehow my thoughts managed to find their way back to Alexa.“Nothing,” I reply.“You are lying. I've never seen you so unfocused before. Tell me w
Chapter 90Alexa's POVI exchanged pleasantries with Klara. I wonder why Ace never liked her. She looks beautiful and is also polite. Everyone at the table is in an awkward silence after what just happened. I feel someone's eyes on me. I glanced at everyone until my gaze met with the Alpha. He quickly looks away. Has he been staring at me?We finished our breakfast, and we were all about to leave when the twins stopped us.“Wait, everyone. We have something to say,” Mason said, and we all turned around to look at him. “Firstly, we want to say happy birthday to the best and most loving mummy in the world,” Manie said with a smile.“Thank you so much, babies,” Darcey replies happily.“Mum, we are not babies anymore. Stop calling us that,” Mason whines, and we all laugh.“You will always be my babies forever,” Darcey answers, and they sigh.“To the second part, we have a gift for you. It's from the both of us, even though daddy helped out a little,” Mason said.“A gift?” Darcey asks, su
Chapter 91Alexa's POV“Alexa, come join me and the girls for tea,” Darcey said to me. I was coming back from the training field when I met with her.“Sure,” I reply. We both walked upstairs to the balcony where two ladies and Klara were sitting.“Hello ladies,” Darcey said, and they exchanged pleasantries. We both take a seat.“Hello everyone,” I said politely and they replied.“Alexa, this is Keela and Hyacinth, ladies, this is Alexa Alpha Kai's wife,” Darcey introduces us.“Nice to meet you,” they both said, and I replied.“Happy birthday once again Darcey,” Hyacinth said.“Thank you,” she replies with a smile. The maids come in with some tea and cake.“I was just telling Keela here to show us some sexy moves,” Hyacinth giggles.“Sexy moves?” Darcey asks.“Yes, you know, Keela knows more than enough about sexy moves,” Hyacinth replies.“I have no idea how to dance,” Darcey replies. I wonder what types of moves they are talking about.“You don't need it anyway. Deren is always going
Chapter 92Alexa's POVHe continues to stare at me in a daze for a while. I clear my throat.“Is everything okay?” I ask curiously.“Yes, everything is completely fine,” he replies and I nod.“You look beautiful, by the way,” he said and hurries to the bathroom. I blinked trying to comprehend what just happened. Did he compliment me? Is he really okay? Or is he sick? Because the Alpha I know will never ever say that. I brush my hair and leave it straight, flowing behind my back. I'm currently wearing a black ball gown, the sleeves, and some parts of the front are lacy, showing my cleavage a little. It has a long slit, showing off my legs whenever I take a step. He comes out of the closet after getting dressed.“Let's go?” he said. I pick up our gift and we head outside. The party is being held in their large living room. They are a lot of people present, but not that many because I've heard Darcey really likes her privacy. She only sent out invites to people she's close to. I barely
Chapter 93Alpha Kai's POVI didn't think. I didn't want to think. All I felt at that was the urge to get a taste of those lips that have been tormenting my thoughts. I kiss her soft plump lips deeply and passionately. I am thirsty for her. She's like a drug that I'm addicted to. She tensed for a while, obviously shocked. She would be, after all, I caught her off guard. I could tell from her restrained movements that she is inexperienced. I take control, delving my tongue into her mouth, kissing and sucking her tongue. She pulls away after some time, out of breath. Her lips are swollen and red. “I…I need to…,” she gasps when I pull her towards me again. I turn her back towards my front and garner her long silky hair with my hands to the other side of her neck in order to gain better access. I can see the mate mark I had given her. It's completely healed, but I could still see a little scar in the same spot. I kiss and suck her neck repeatedly while rubbing my erection on her butt.
Chapter 94Crescent packAmelie's POVI crouch on the floor, rocking my body back and forth. It's been three days. Three days since I've been locked in here like a common animal. I take a look around the room. It's a mess. There are broken vases on the floor, broken plates, thorn flowers, different types of wasted food, and disorganized paintings and sheets. The bed doesn't look like a bed anymore. I had clawed it out with my claws out of anger.I see my image in the broken mirror in front of me. I haven't slept for the past three days, so I have heavy bags under my eyes. My hair is like a bird's nest on top of my head. My face looks pale, and my cheekbones are hollow. I had refused to eat or drink anything.“Alexa,” I chuckle, biting into my nails. I had chewed my nails so much that there were no nails left to chew anymore.“Alexa,” I mutter again, sniffing, scratching my neck and hair. The only name that has been on my mind and lips for the past three days.“Alexaa!” I scream, shatt
Chapter 95New dawn PackAlexa's POVI inhale deeply, waking up from my slumber. I try to move my legs, but I wince when I feel a sore ache between my thighs. I notice I'm laying on something hard or is it someone, because I can feel his chest rise and down and his breath on my face. I gently looked up to see him sleeping peacefully.He does not look like an intimidating Alpha when he sleeps. He looks…serene. His long lashes frame his cheeks and his soft lips. I remember what those lips of his did to my body last night. His hair is messy. The same hair I had tangled up my finger in…“Good morning,” his deep husky voice rumbles, vibrating in my chest. I stared at him in shock. Has he been awake all this while?“Are you done staring at me?” he asks, and I quickly turn my back towards him, embarrassed. He chuckles.“Are you feeling okay?” he asks in a concerned voice. He must be inquiring about last night.“I guess,” I mutter. I gasp when he suddenly pulls my back towards him. We were st
