The frightened shriek echoed along the hallways outside Kaliyah’s room that startled the half-asleep guards. They both rush inside. But was shocked that their alpha was already there. He had caged the terrified trembling woman in his protective embrace. And that was the scene that the two guards witnessed which moved their hearts. “Out,” he ordered the two, which they immediately obliged. They had to. Because to keep on watching them makes them felt like they’re intruding their privacy. “Husshhh. I’m here, baby. Stop crying…” Ruan continuously stroked her back, feeling her sweat in his palms. “I…I’m not cr-crying!” Kaliyah protested between sobs and hiccups. “Right. Right. You’re not crying, baby,” Ruan agreed in an instant. Although it was ironic since he was wiping the tears falling down her cheeks. Kaliyah cried even more, letting the pain and fear she just felt from her dream flow away along with her tears. She buried her face in his chest until

Kaliyah was unable to properly sleep at night due to Ruan’s absence. Did he hate her for kicking him out every morning? And he decided to stay away just like what she wanted? But that wasn’t entirely what she desired. She wanted him by her side. She just can’t help it. She hated seeing Ruan’s face but also hates his absence. His scent makes her want to puke every time but it was also the scent that makes her feel at peace. What’s wrong with her? Was it due to her pregnancy? She cannot understand herself. “Ruan?” she muttered, turning around upon feeling someone’s arms snaking on her stomach. Ruan was hugging her on her back, his lips were pressed against her nape. “Why are you still awake? It’s almost dawn.” There was a hint of scolding in his tone that made her heartbeat race. Her cheeks reddened in guilt. “I can’t sleep thinking of you…” Ruan grinned sheepishly, moving closer towards her that she felt his hard length. Think

Ruan slammed the door shut in his office, heading straight to the small bathroom inside. His breathing was uneven as sweat fell from his forehead. As he looked at himself through the mirror, all he saw was a beast filled with lust. Damn. He wanted Kaliyah so badly. He wanted her so much that he even thought of ripping those thin sheet of red fabric that barely covered her voluptuous body. However, what if he hurt her and the baby inside her? He swears to himself that he’ll be a good father. Who will protect and take care of their child… But what if he lost his control and hurt their child instead? “F*ck.” He punched the sink with all his strength to release his frustration. A crack was visible after it. He was aware that he often got rough on Kaliyah, losing all his senses once he made love to her. As fragile as her, won’t it be dangerous for their child if he f*ck Kaliyah senselessly? But if he still restrains himself, he’ll sure

Kaliyah wanted to scream the pain she was feeling right now. She wanted to confront Ruan. To ask him why he did such thing to her.Clenching his jaw, he pushed Kaliyah towards Terry, although as he spoke, he was commanding everyone of his men. “Protect her at all cost!” he says, staring at Kaliyah intently. His eyes were too stoic, bearing no emotion at all that she hardly recognized him. Was he still the same she was about to marry?“That woman…” his voice suddenly shifted into a gentler tone for a moment, before it turned back to the authoritative one, he used before. “…she bears the future of our kingdom! Protect her at the cost of your lives!”“We swear to protect our Luna, Alpha!”Breaking their stares, Ruan transformed into his black-furred wolf and disappeared into the heated-up battle. He let out an imposing loud howl, followed by his men who now shifted into their true form too.Even Terry and his fellow followed suit. And it wasn’t long before Kaliyah couldn’t

Kaliyah hadn’t dreamed of Elle’s passing. However, every time she closes her eyes, that exact scene how she jumped on that cliff flashed in in her mind. This sent her chills and fear at every moment that she was unable to sleep. She felt a gentle tap on her back, reminding her of Gray’s presence in the room. “I’m okay, Gray,” she told him, a hint for him to stop trying to comfort her anymore. Accompanying her since yesterday was enough for her. that way, she felt less scared. “You’re not cheating with my other nephew, are you?” Hearing that familiar feminine voice, Kaliyah turned around and found Samantha sitting at the side of her bed. She got up; eyes filled with shock at what she just said. “T-that won’t ever happen!” she yelped, glancing at Gray who was at the terrace. He was sitting on the rails, looking at them. And this made her embarrassed and anxious. As if she said nothing controversial, Samantha just shrugged her shoulders and
