Semua Bab The Alpha and the traitor's daughter : Bab 61 - Bab 70

Irene I watched from the window as Lucien stood before his warriors. He was as serious as usual, with his facial expressions so vague that I couldn't read him. He was addressing the warriors lined up in front of him and my heart still bit at me when I stared at him. "Prepare yourselves," he ordered. "There’s an avalanche coming. It's going to be a very serious one and it's inevitable! Now, I'm saying this because I don't want to take any chances. Okay?” he said and they all roared in agreement. His warriors straightened their backs, their hands resting on their weapons and they nodded in understanding. But I got more confused . An avalanche? That was a strange choice of words. I leaned closer, gripping the cold windowsill, trying to make sense of his words. Was this a warning? There was going to be a large mass of ice over our lands? How were we going to survive in this condition? I wanted to ask, but I didn't because it sounded more serious than I thought and I refused to

IreneI barely made it two steps into the hallway before Eve appeared in front of me, looking so fierce as if she was about to fight someone.Hatred burned in her eyes, and I almost turned to take another route.I was sick of her. The other day, Lucien swore with everything in him that she was only going to stay for a few days, but now? That wasn’t the case.She was here to stay, and she had gotten so comfortable."You really have no shame, do you?" she sneered, and I sighed, already tired of the endless back and forth between us."What do you want, Eve? If I’m not mistaken, I didn’t do anything to you. Can you just let me be?” I asked, sighing for the second time.“Who cares, silly? I’m just here to remind you that you are going beyond your bounds,” she said, and I could feel her breath blowing hot against my face. “You think you can come in here, demand things, and have Lucien protect you like some fragile little princess? You are mistaken. I think I have to put an end to that.”I s

IreneIf I had been given an award for the many times I had called Peris names, then I was quite sure I would have had a lot.There was nothing good about him, and trust me, I wasn’t saying all of this because he was my ex.I was saying this because he was no good. That was the plain truth, and I wasn’t trying to mince my words.He hadn’t been a good person, and up until now, I was still in shock that Alpha Lucien had brought him to me.All of them had been the same. They had all been the same.I let out a frustrated sigh, rubbing my arms as Peris leaned lazily against the wall. He still had his usual infuriating smirk on full display, and it did nothing to make me feel better.Now, I regretted not having a gun because if I had had one, I would have shot him in the head long ago."You’re a pest," I complained, shaking my head. I didn’t care about how he felt; as long as the message was passed, then it was all good. "A stubborn, annoying, insufferable pest,” I added, and he just laughe

Irene"Stop it!"A sharp gasp tore from my lips as I was ripped from Peris’ hold with a brutal and sudden force that I barely had time to register what was happening.My feet stumbled over themselves, and before I could regain my balance, I was lying flat on the cold, hard ground. The impact of the fall sent a dull ache through my palms and knees.What the hell had just happened? I had fallen down? How? One moment, Lucien had sent him away.Then, the next minute, he had jerked him off the ground and thrown me to the floor.You might think I was at fault for following Peris after Lucien had dismissed him. But I wasn’t! I swear, I wasn’t. I had simply been following my bodyguard.My head snapped up in time to see Peris being kicked into the air like someone without bones.His body twisted mid-air before he landed with a harsh thud, rolling over the dirt.He groaned in pain, struggling to push himself up, but the menace of a man standing over him made it clear—he wasn’t allowed to move.

IreneI felt so warm when I woke up and my body was on the softest bed sheets I had ever known.I didn't know what had happened to me, but I felt so satisfied.My eyes snapped open. I noticed it was morning already, but I felt a sharp pain shooting out from my head.My heart slammed against my ribs as the events of last night flooded back.Lucien, again! Now, I couldn't deny that I had loved every bit of what had happened last night.His touch, His lips, his body. Everything had felt right, and I could still feel the fire that had consumed the both of us.I sat up immediately, only to feel the cool air brush against my bare skin.Then, I looked down.“Oh my God!” I blurted out and quickly held my mouth with my hand after a gasp tore through me.I struggled to pull up the sheets tighter around my body, and I could hardly breathe.I had been completely exposed beneath the covers, lying across Lucien’s bed like it was a normal thing.It was then I began to panic. What had I really done?
