บททั้งหมดของ Alpha of Alphas - The Lycan's Impossible Mate: บทที่ 131 - บทที่ 140

Kane wakes me, his handsome face beaming down at me. “Did you have a good nap?” he asks. I sit upright, trying to focus my sleep-blurred eyes on him. “What time is it?” “Almost six,” he lifts the fussing Adare out of his cot and hands him to me. “I guess he wants to nurse.” I nod. “You smell good,” I say without thinking. He does. He smells different, more earthy and musky. “I took a shower,” he says. I laugh. “That’s not what I mean. Do you have a new cologne?” He shakes his head. “Your senses start to enhance when the full moon approaches. I smell the same as always, you’re just more aware of it.” “I know that already…that’s not it.” He frowns. “I don’t know, Willow. Nothing’s changed.” “It’s weird,” I say and latch Adare to my breast while I keep an eye on Kane. “It’s like when I’m in heat, and everything about is just more…alluring.” He shrugs, but there’s a curious frown between his eyes. “You’re not in heat.” “No.” “Then I haven’t got the foggiest. Did you pump a bott

Kane's POV I have never experienced anything like it. My body craves to be with Dani, but my head hates the idea, and my heart only wants Willow. Dario is angry, homocidal – he doesn’t want to be with Dani in any way shape or form, is furious that she's back, but the physical craving, mine alone it seem, doesn’t let up. I feel gross, violated. Willow’s spell lasted a good hour before it started to wear off. I started using my own magic, not to put up a barrier between Dani and me as Willow had done, but to stop her from feeling it. All I want to do is protect Willow, and this is the only way. She barely has any control as it is, feeling Dani’s heat, which is more intense than it should be, will send her careening over the edge into a murderous rage. I can’t think clearly. The need to mate is too strong. I can now clearly tell the difference between the desire to mate with someone you love and respect, and someone you outright despise. The physical yearning does not match the emotion

Glenn walks back into the living room about fifteen minutes later, his face giving away the whole story. “He doesn’t have answers either?”“No, but he’s tackling his library.”“I still say we have to go over there and just ask her,” I say.“I agree,” Tully pipes up. I smile at her and nod.“She won’t tell you,” Glenn says. “Or she may not even know herself.”It doesn't matter. This whole conversation is pointless. I already decided that I'm going to talk to her, and I plan on following through. "We're going anyway." I glance at my watch. “Where is the wet nurse?”“She said she’d be twenty minutes,” Glenn answers“It’s been an hour.”He curses. “I’ll go see what’s keeping her.”I don’t want her here, but I don’t know how long it will take me to find the answers I need, and the longer we wait, the longer Kane suffers, and the stronger the bond between him and Dani becomes. “How are you adjusting?” I ask Tully while we wait for Glenn to come back. I want to talk about something, anything

We drive up to a large building I’ve never seen before, not that I’ve had much time to explore the castle’s grounds, but you’d think a double-storey mansion would be more difficult to hide. The whole place is fenced in behind a row of trees, and female guards patrol the perimeter of the mansion’s grounds. “Lots of security for a bunch of women and children,” I say. “Hm,” Glenn grunts. “It’s a somewhat arcane set-up…but back in the day, before we outlawed rape, widowed she-wolves needed protection from the young males. They have no mates, and they are not virgins anymore, so the unmated males used to see them as free game.” “That has changed, I trust?” “Oh yes. Decades ago when Kane’s grandfather put a stop to it, but some of the old traditions and ways of life stuck. It helps, the routine and the laws, it keeps the order.” “I know, Kane told me.” No one tries to stop us as we get out of the car and walk up to the large front door. “The she-wolf in charge is called Mistress Elsa. S

I don’t want to be here. I don’t want to see the look in Kane’s eyes or hear the desire in his voice, but I can’t leave. He’d never abandoned me. No matter what I’ve done, no matter what I’ll do in the future, he’ll never leave me. I have to be there for him, even if it hurts. He pulls me back against him like a shield. His erection pushing into the small of my back. I understand what he’s trying to do, he’s been doing it all night. It kills me that Dani’s the one having this kind of effect on him, but I don’t move. Not just for him, but for me. I’d go out of my mind if she saw his desire for her. “You are my mate,” Dani insists, her feverish eyes never leaving his face. “I can feel it.” “Hm no, you are wishing the bond back into existence,” Kane says. “I hate you, do you understand. I can’t stand the sight of you.” “Your mother…she said I was in danger…” she starts rambling. “Stop lying,” he snaps, cutting her off. “My mother paid you to leave, and you chose the money.” His hand
