Tango with the Alpha's Heart Chapter 41 - My mommy calls me Lex
Alexander’s POV I left for my quarters, running up the stairs three steps at a time—the perk of having long legs. I refused to take the lift, believing it would waste time. Adrenaline and excitement filled my insides and spilled over. The council gave me an hour to attend to my small issue—just enough time to help Emily out of her predicament. "Goddess," I mumbled. "I hope I wasn't too late! I don't like Emily being in pain." I passed a couple of curious gazes, seeing me rushing down the hallway. The omegas were done with their daily tasks: cleaning the rank wolf rooms and returning to their duties in the kitchen. They weren't allowed in my quarters unsupervised. It wasn't because I didn't trust them to do their chores. It was because I didn't want anyone to enter Emily's room without permission. Once a week, Luke would bring a group of five omegas to my quarters, watching them as she tidied up the place. Emily's scent hit my nose, and my heartbeat escalated. I was almost the
Tango with the Alpha's Heart Chapter 42 - One condition
Emily's POV "What the hell are you doing in here?" Alex roared, his stormy gray eyes hard and full of anger. I took an unwilling step back, unsure what to do. I didn't know that he would feel so possessive and angry about me being in his office. "I-" I stuttered nervously. I knew I had disobeyed him, but I just couldn't ignore Lex and not say goodbye to him. He is my son, and I needed to see him. I already felt that I had neglected him by leaving him in Mila's care. "I asked her the same question!" Angelica said, getting to her feet with a sinister smile plastered on her lips. She looked at me with disgust as she walked toward Alex. "You should call the guards and have this worthless girl arrested. She used your office as a meet-and-greet area for her family," Angelica continued. "Who does that? And that in an Alpha’s office? She looks more like a scullery maid than a pack warrior. You should check her pockets; she might have stolen some pack secrets while here. It is a good th
Tango with the Alpha's Heart Chapter 43 - Trust
Emily's POV I was in heat for three freaking days. Three days! I wasn't impressed, but it seemed to be over now. Alex stayed with me, locking the door to ensure no one could enter unexpectedly. He made sure to feed me, and Julie was our chef. I licked my lips, thinking of all the beautiful and delicious food she had made for us. Now that my heat is over, I can focus and think more clearly. I sighed. Something was still occupying Alex's attention. He even sneaked off in the early hours last night, and I was pondering whether to ask him what was going on. During my heat, Alex refused to go all the way and mate with me. It surprised me; I was then certain that something was bothering him. My thoughts raced back to that evening. Alex had carried me back to his quarters and sat me on my bed. If I had my way, I would have had him f*ck me in his office, but Alex had other ideas. He smiled down at me as he helped me out of my shirt and pants. Then he squatted to my level, taking b
Tango with the Alpha's Heart Chapter 44 - Is Lex mine?
Alexander’s POV I was testing the waters, and I was about to rock the boat hard. I wanted to see Emily's reaction when she found out about my knowing about Lex. I already concluded that Lex was my son and the future Alpha of this pack, but I needed to hear it from Emily herself. Luke caught me going through some old pack files in my office the night before. I couldn't sleep until I had proof, and my thoughts wandered off too early this morning. "Don't you bloody knock?" I growled at him, startled, and grabbed my chest. I was so focused on what I was doing that I didn't hear Luke enter my office. The next moment, he stood next to me like a phantom from the night. "Not when my Alpha is digging in the archives in the middle of the night while his mate is soundly sleeping upstairs," he said, rolling his eyes. "What are you looking for? Maybe I could be of some assistance." That was the question that has been bugging me throughout the whole process—what was I looking for? I wasn't
Tango with the Alpha's Heart Chapter 45 - One challenger is enough!
Emily's POV"I think this is a better color," I said, handing Alex a deep blue bedspread and matching linen."Will it make my eyes pop?" He asked, putting it against his chest and fluttering his eyelashes. I chuckled at his playfulness."It is bedding, not clothing!" I said, laughing.Alex rolled his eyes at me, yet he placed the bedding in the trolley.We had come to town to replace everything in Alex's room. He wanted to have Luke order everything online, but I insisted—to Alex's annoyance.I guess he was a typical male, not enjoying the wonders of shopping—not that I was particularly fond of going shopping, but I did have my moments."What do you think of these?" I said, gesturing to the off-white curtains hanging on the display.Alex released a depressing sigh behind me, and I turned to look at him."Don't you like it?" I asked."Emily, it's not that," he said, his face twisted. "I don't mind the color or anything you buy. It will look perfect; I am sure of it.""Then why the long
Tango with the Alpha's Heart Chapter 46 - Old Lycan magic
Emily's POV "Where are we going?" I asked, seeing Luke drive past the turn-off toward the Opal pack. "You will see," Alex said, keeping his eyes on the road. I frowned but didn't ask any more questions and sat back, folding my arms around my waist and looking out the window. We had driven out of the city, and before long, Luke took a turn off on a dirt road. That spiked my interest, and I sat upright, looking out the window. Huge trees suddenly surrounded us and spread down the road. "Now I am really curious about where we are going," I said, sitting back with my eyes on the road. "We will be there in less than an hour," Luke said, looking back at me through the rearview mirror. "Where is there?" I asked. "Did you two decide to kidnap me?" Alex chuckled at my response, shaking his head and looking toward Luke. Luke nodded and smiled. "That's rude, you know," I huffed, gesturing between them. "Where are we being rude?" Luke said, taken aback. "We didn't say or do anything.
Tango with the Alpha's Heart Chapter 47 - Welcome home!
Alexander’s POV"Did you announce our arrival?" I linked Luke."I have," he replied. "The priestesses are excited about seeing you.""Good," I replied. "We are here.""You know what to do!" he said.I could almost feel Luke's excitement over the link; he had gone to warn the priestess of our arrival.I left Emily's side and stood aside, letting Ghost take over to do the shift.Ghost understood, and seconds later I was standing in my Lycan form, throwing my head back, and howling.The huge doors of the temple opened, and Luke made his way out, stopping a few feet from the exit."Luna," he said. "The only way you will be able to enter the temple is to shift into your Lycan beast."Emily's gaze moved to me."There isn't anyone close by," I said. "These woods are protected. So is the temple. Only pure blood can enter.""But why can't I enter in human form?" She asked. "I am full-blooded."Luke smiled, and his gaze met mine."Because the protection spell wouldn't let a human enter," he sai
Tango with the Alpha's Heart Chapter 48 - Sneaking out
Emily's POV"Race you to the top!" Luke yelled out, shifted into his brown and gray wolf, and started sprinting up the path we came from.We just exited the temple after spending most of the day there, yet outside, it didn't look a few minutes later than the time we entered the temple.Alex turned to face me, his eyes shifting between black and gray, and they were pleading. His wolf was on the surface; he couldn't resist such a challenge; he wanted to show off his strength and speed."Sure, go ahead," I said, chuckling. I couldn't help but find his puppy's eyes adorable. "I'll see you at the top!""Are you sure?" He asked, surprised."Yeah," I replied. "Go show Luke you are still the Alpha of this pack!""You are the best!" He said, kissing me on the forehead, then turned and shifted into a beautiful black wolf.The wolf turned his huge head toward me and quickly nodded—I caught a glimpse of his light blue, almost white, icy eyes—before he sprinted off."No wonder his name is Ghost,"
