All Chapters of Under the Moonlight: Alpha's Bride 2: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

Chapter 52 As night fell over the mansion, I changed into a short, delicate nightgown, the fabric as soft as a caress against my skin. The chamber was barely lit by the moon's gentle glow, and I knew Xavier would soon enter, repeating the ritual act of assuring the pack members that he slept alongside me every night. I awaited his coming with fear and determination, unsure of the road I was about to take.A blanket of thought veiled his features as he entered the room. He sat on the bed, oblivious to my clothes, immersed in the maze of his thoughts. I moved to the other side of the bed, taking a seat in the hopes of engaging him in conversation."I never imagined the ceremony would be postponed again," I began, my voice a mixture of genuine surprise and concealed want. "The last time you pushed it back, it was because I wasn't prepared. But this time, I yearned for the wait," I admitted, my words filled with unspoken emotions.Xavier maintained his reserved demeanor, his eyes a distan

Chapter 54 He turned around and stared at me with such raw vulnerability that I couldn't help but sense a kinship with him, a bond that went beyond simple strangers.My heart ached for his pain, I whispered. "Sometimes, life throws us into storms that we can't control, but we can find strength in leaning on others, in sharing our pain with those who care."Levine's gaze met mine for a brief moment. "But what if I'm too broken to be fixed?" he asked quietly as if he was frightened to express his innermost worry."You're not broken," I stated emphatically, my voice full of conviction. "You're just going through a rough patch, and it's okay not to be okay. But you don't have to go through it alone. Some individuals care about you and wish to assist you in healing."Levine's defenses cracked, and tears flowed down his cheeks. At that moment, I knew our connection was more than words and explanations - it was a meeting of two souls, each seek

Chapter 56 Levine's seductive voice remained near my ear under the dark sky his remarks eliciting a range of feelings in me. My heart beat as I pulled him away, attempting to recover control. "You're making stuff up," I said, my voice shaking with bewilderment and longing.Levine's hard stare pierced into mine as if he was eager to breach my defenses. "You think so?" he asked, his voice dripping with knowledge. "No matter how much you deny it, you can't change the fact."I pushed him away again, feeling the urge to show my independence. Frustration and determination welled up inside me. "I don't care," I said, my voice full of confidence. "The only person who has a place in my heart is Logan. I will locate him, be with him, and no one will be able to separate me from him."Levine looked attentively at my face as if reading the secrets contained within. "So Logan kept you here, and Xavier used him to control you," he ended, leaving me feeling exposed and defenseless.Levine appeared ca

Chapter 58 raged within me "You treated my wound, didn't you? So stop acting like you don't see me." Nonetheless, faced with his continuing quiet, I grabbed a stone, my intention to hurl it at him evident. The stone, on the other hand, slipped my grasp, flowing through my fingers like smoke."I'll spare you today," I whispered, my voice trembling with tiredness, "I don't have the energy for a confrontation. But don't take this as a request for forgiveness."Xavier maintained a calm demeanor, in direct contrast to the anguish within me, my heart racing in terrified beats.Young Xavier's words flowed through the air within the shadowy embrace of the jungle, his voice steady and measured as he methodically wiped his sword clean. My heart raced as he kept his focus fixated on the task at hand, oblivious to my presence. "Hiding in the shadows can sap your power, for the brave do not seek sanctuary in concealment," he said, his words bearing the weight of experience. Every stroke of his c

Chapter 60 Adam's expression twisted in confusion, a hint of disbelief evident in his voice. "Sorry, what?"Xavier's lips curled into a playful grin as his response hung in the air, charged with a teasing undertone. "Hedgehog."Adam's brow furrowed, his voice laced with bewilderment. "Hedgehog who?"A mischievous glint danced in Xavier's eyes as he replied, his words playful yet loaded with meaning. "You."The unexpectedness of the exchange broke through the tension, and laughter bubbled forth from both of them, a shared camaraderie temporarily suspending the fight. The clash of fists gave way to a temporary truce as they both caught their breath.A smile tugged at Adam's lips, his amusement evident. "Shut up, you jerk."Xavier's smile matched Adam's, his smile was genuine. "Respect must be paid, my friend. For I am now not only your friend but the Alpha of our pack. That role demands respect, just like any other Alpha." Adam's laughter lingered in the air and his voice carried a p
