All Chapters of His Second Chance Luna : Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

My mind went blank as those words sank in, gaping at him like he grew a second head. Since when did the Alpha involve me in his affairs? Especially when it came to pack business. The last time I tried to pry, he was difficult and gave me half baked answers. Straightening my spine, I crossed my legs, hands resting atop the lap.     “Wait…let me get this straight you want me to come along with you? As your Luna?”   “I believe that’s the context of what I said.” He replied in a bored tone.    “I suggest you be nice, Alpha since you are the one who needs my help here.” I wriggled my brows, feeling a thrill of excitement settling in the pit of my stomach.&nbs

I gaped at her, tongue feeling heavy in my mouth at the lies she spewed. Angel was an instigator. That’s all I could think about while standing in the middle of the room. My arms crossed together, the tip of heels tapping impatiently as I saw her latch onto Axel.     The Alpha, however, appeared taken back and uncomfortable. Or so I thought by the grimace on his features and almost freezing on the spot with hands hanging by side awkwardly. At my intense stare, he pushed himself away, clearing his throat.    It made my lips twitch.    “W-What is going on here?” He asked, resting his back against the wall while eyeing the sweater. 

The day I dreaded the most—our reception ceremony arrived, and I couldn’t be more jittery if possible. It’s probably the nerves; I thought that morning. My food remained untouched in front of me, what felt like rocks sitting heavy in the pit of my belly, preventing me from doing more than nibbling a thing or two.        To deviate from the apparent tension in my body, I leaned and started flipping through newspaper lying on the coffee table. It was a halfhearted attempt, my eyes going to the clock over the mantle every few seconds.        “Will you be eating the rest of your breakfast, Your Highness?” One of the maids asked, looking over her shoulder as she began folding my clothes. I kept chewing on the bottom lip; I barely managed to give her a grunt. 

My knees wobbled at the sight of Alpha Axel standing by the railing, basking in the moonlight. It made him look ethereal, sharp and glowing. I closed my eyes and bit on the lip, savouring the baritone I could not admit I had missed. Looking up, I met those lovely green eyes for a second before letting out a sigh.   “Please leave me alone, Alpha.”   The rough tenor was enough to raise the hair on the back of my neck; head bowed down. “I am afraid I am incapable of doing that.”     He cleared his throat, letting out a cough as if he realised how odd that sounded. “I meant it’s my place of solace too. As I said, the gardens are lovely.”   The smell of rich leather and his natural musk hit me as he cl

Athea dropped me off after our shopping trip with a promise to see me as soon as I came back from the trip. As much as I wanted to invite my new friend in and continue our fascinating conversation, I had plans with Axel. We were supposed to visit the rogues staying outside the border in the afternoon.     The guards standing by the doors rushed to unload all the shopping bags, keeping a neutral face. I was beyond excited as Athea made me visit all the trendy boutiques on the high street. As the sister of the beta, she was well known, and everyone greeted her with a polite smile.    While I stepped into the living hall, my eyes fell on Angel. She was lavishly sitting on the couch, her legs crossed together and a china tea tray in front.
