Alicia's POVI felt uneasy and turned around, only to spot Alpha Alex emerging from the darkness and approaching me. I remained still, unable to move."Alicia, tell me, where did you stay last night?" Alpha Alex asked once more, this time standing closer to me."I...I just went outside to get some fresh air," I stammered, nearly stumbling as I stepped back carefully from him."Is there something you're hiding, Alicia?" Alpha Alex moved closer, holding my hand firmly."You're...you're hurting me, Alex," I responded, trying to free myself from his grip, which was causing me discomfort."Then you shouldn't have left me alone here," he retorted, making me tremble in fear as he headed for the door and left my room.I sighed deeply, my heart pounding against my chest.I was preparing to lie down and take a nap when a knock echoed at the door, causing me to jolt upright in anxiety. Slowly, I approached the door and pressed my ear against it, sensing a gentle and calm presence on the other si
Alpha Alex's POV I saw Alicia, and it seemed like her legs were shaky. I sensed something was off when my friend Gabriel entered the room. "Are you alright?" I inquired. Alicia nodded and then responded, "Yes, I'm okay." I observed her slowly sitting back in her chair, seeming to avoid eye contact with my approaching friend. I got distracted because I was really worried about her. Why is she staying away from my friend? It seems like she has many secrets that I'm curious to find out. The time she danced with Xavier, it looked like a dance for royalty. I'm wondering who she really is. These thoughts were racing in my mind as my friend approached me. "Alex! I'm super excited to see you again," he gave me a tight hug. "Come on, buddy. Act more grown up. We're not kids anymore," I warned, but he didn't listen. He's been hugging me since we were little. Even though I tried to seem tough, he knows my weak spot. "Don't act like you're not happy to see me. I know you are," he said, res
Alicia's POV"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to startle you," Ella said as she let go of my hand."Why did you come here?" I asked her right away."I checked your room, but you weren't there. So I searched and found you here," Ella answered."Alright," I agreed, letting out a sigh."Someone could easily spot you here. I heard footsteps approaching, which is why I quickly hid you. We should go from here quickly," Ella recommended. We both walked on our toes into my room and gently shut the door."How long were you listening?" I asked, wanting to make sure she hadn't been listening in, just like I had been earlier."Listening? Were they saying something secret? Is there something happening in the palace?" she inquired, and then I understood that she hadn't heard any of the conversation. I let out a sigh of relief.I was feeling uneasy, but I tried to dismiss those feelings. It felt as if luck was on my side, and I was grateful for it. I can't describe how happy I was because if my plan succee
Alicia's POVI tried to push him away, but he was stronger than me. Then, I felt a powerful connection to my mate. It made the anger I was feeling fade away, and I slowly gave in to him."Alex...please...I..." I couldn't find the right words. All I could do was moan as he touched me, allowing him to continue.Alpha Alex noticed that I was surrendering to his touch. He lifted me onto the bed, and I wrapped my arms and legs around it. His strong scent overwhelmed me, almost driving me crazy. If someone else were in my position, I doubt they could resist his handsome presence."This is exactly what I want from you, Alicia. I want you, but you don't realize it," he whispered against my shoulder as he used his teeth to remove my underwear. It was so sweet and romantic."Ah... Alex...please..." I pleaded when I felt his wet lips on my nipples. I gripped the bedsheet with my left hand and tangled my right hand in his hair as he gently played with my nipple, making it feel really nice."Oh...
Alpha Alex's POV It's been a long time since my Luna came. She is small and really pretty, I have to admit. But honestly, I don't feel drawn to her. She actually makes me feel uncomfortable, and I don't like her attitude either. Just as they say, when you mention something, it happens. It's only a few days until her crowning ceremony, and the advisors are constantly bothering me to get close to her. "Hey there," Isabella greeted, interrupting my thoughts."Why are you here?! I told the guards to keep you inside until the coronation day!" I shouted, making the guards rush in and lower their heads in front of me."Your Highness, we couldn't stop her. She just hurt one of the guards," the soldiers said with their heads down, shaking."You hurt one of my followers? Who gave you the courage? You're not even my Luna yet, and you believe you can act freely, huh?" I asked, pointing at her angrily. My anger made me shift slightly into my wolf form."I also…" Isabella's words were interrupt
Alpha Alex's POVI wished I could see her, but I can't go to the prison since my guards are watching. I know they're waiting for me to make a mistake so they can plan against me, and I won't let that happen. Just as I was thinking this, I heard a knock on the door and my soldiers started rushing around."Your Highness, we need your attention," a guard said suddenly at my door. I hadn't even had a chance to get comfortable in bed, so I hurriedly put on my jacket and zipped it up. I opened the door almost immediately, causing the soldier's hand to hang on the door."What do you want at this time of day?" I asked, glaring at the soldier with anger. I was relieved I hadn't fallen asleep yet; otherwise, I would have been even more furious and might have attacked him before asking other soldiers for an explanation about why they interrupted my sleep."Your mistress..." he paused, glancing at my face."What happened to her?" I asked, my eyes locking onto his."She's missing? What do you mean
Alicia's POVI carefully put the iron I was holding back in its place, and a wave of regret washed over me for having raised my hand against the stranger I had only just encountered."I apologize sincerely," I said, noticing that he hadn't made any aggressive move. Despite my anger, fatigue, and weariness, I acknowledged that the bond between mates was still there. In an instant, I sensed that he felt it too."No, no, it's alright. Don't worry. I can see you've been through a tough time. We can address the issue of trust later," the stranger reassured me. I found myself gazing at him, captivated by his calm demeanor, which was unlike anyone I had ever met before."Are you usually this way?" I inquired as I sat down on the bed gently."I'm not sure I understand. What were you expecting?" he asked, catching me off guard. I stared back, amazed at how someone could remain so composed, even after I had just accidentally hit him with a candle stand."I mean... I thought you might hit me bac
Alicia's POV I knew that my life was going to change a lot when he kissed me with his wet lips. Even though I wanted him like I had thought before, I tried not to let it happen, so I could be certain I wasn't doing something wrong."Wait...please stop," I said, and right away he stopped without pressuring me."I'm really sorry... I didn't intend to... I..." he said nervously, his left hand staying on my waist, and his eyes fixed on mine. I could see his eyes were filled with heat and desire."No... It's not... I just..." I stumbled over my words and quickly moved to kiss him back. This time, it wasn't quick. I didn't notice when his tongue met mine as he kissed me.I put my hand on his chest softly and felt his heart beating slowly, while he tried to unzip my jacket. He stopped kissing my lips and instead moved to my neck, causing me to let out a short but sudden sound."Ah... Ramirez..." I let out a sound of pleasure as his touch made my legs feel a little shaky. In that moment, I f
