57. A bitter prophecy
"You saw my dreams too?" Stunned at the perception, Alan's eyelids enlarged as he leaned forward, thrilled.
The old diviner acknowledged with a single nod of his head, looking through the desired page he wanted to glance at, in the tome.
"You got to see a glimpse of the whole dreadful event that is about to take place on the full moon night, Alpha. Which is why I had been expecting you today so I could let you know the truth you are unaware of."
"What kind of truth?" He asked, lingering on the edge of his seat.
Adrian received a shivery stare from his Alpha friend that depicted more of his anxiety and remorse.
'It's okay, just stay put and listen to him carefully.' He assured Alan of his support and beamed nervously.
Not in abundance but it did help the Alpha's throbb
(LAST) Lisa retired to Alan— correction, their room now, in the middle of the feast as she could not control her emotions any longer. He had scared her to suppress her tears but now she wanted to pour them out. Stopping them was making her feel sick. Having come back to the room, she locked the door and threw herself on the bed. He was bad. She dug her face in the pillow crying her heart out as she thought about him. He didn't make her feel good at all. Even during the feast, for whatever time she stayed down there, he ignored her. He didn't hold her hand when he was introducing her as Luna. Alan didn't even shower her with a gaze of love when the oracles put around her shoulders the cloak of Luna and put the crown on her head. He was such a bad mate. Thinking about what happened she was weeping in the pillow when from the window, Alpha Alan entered.
77. She was making him fall in love with herself harder and harder. Putting the curtains back, she came back to bed and settled on it. Her eyes burned but she didn't let tears spill. She was marked. She was accepted. She was taken as the Alpha's Moonborn mate. Nevertheless, she was still not wanted. At least that is how it was seeming to her given that he didn't come to check upon her even for once post that one meet before his leave. After he returned, she tried to hug him but he refrained her from doing so. The guests he's bought with himself were more important to him because rather than consoling her restlessness, he escorted them inside the castle while she was left there with a petrified Adrian who was lost in his own predicament. He played matchmaker for his beta as well as her brother but ignored his own mate. He ignored her. Having saved her from killing herself, he
76. Waiting for him restlessly The rest of the day Lisa spent waiting for Alan. He'd promised to come to her once his undone work was finished but there was still no sign of him. She was fine now. Thanks to the healers for giving her medicines that worked quickly, boosting her recovery. Since she was a Moonborn and now satisfied with her life for being marked, her wolf worked upon helping heal her. The fever was gone. Her weakness too. Lisa relished the day going around the huge castle with Jenny. Initially, her nerves tensed up when Jenny came to see Lisa in Alan's chambers. But her disclosure of not being his mistress anymore made Lisa sweep on the bed in relief. Since she was not his mistress any more but a close friend, she developed a friendly bond with Jenny within no time. The two of them moved around the castle with Sebestian joining them at a moment. He was hap
75She was marked by him.***Her smile was widening. She failed in life as a princess, she was going to win as an individual.This death was not really a defeat but her victory over her agonies she bore and a rejection she got despite being Moonborn.The cold water really put her mind off. What could be better than sucking some water in her lungs and ending it without much pain? Lisa left her hands loose and parted her mouth.The liquid made her feel dead already as she was in a fever. She had been weak as long as she woke up from her three days deep traumatized sleep. And this cool chilling water was only making her feel half dead.As she blew inside aiming to fill her lungs with water, a strong hold grasped her elbow in a painful hold and yanked her in the opposite direction of her drowning.It happened real quick yet she had already gulped some wate
74"I am going to bring my mate back." — Alpha Alan***Alpha Alan's POV"Lisa!"I stopped in the middle of my room looking at the spot I had left her some while back.'Where is she? Where did she go, Alan?'My wolf gulped his emotions for there was only her gown lying on the floor but her.I quickly went ahead to pick it up. Bringing it near my face I pressed it on my cheek to feel her. Her scent filled my lungs as I inhaled it. I hugged it to my chest as I fell on my knees.Her gown was torn which only meant she shifted into her wolf and possibly jumped out of the window. I got up to look outside the huge window while hugging her dress, trying to feel her.I really pissed her so much that she preferred to shift into her wolf and went away .Went away? That rang in my head like a caco
73"Please don't do this to me. I am sorry. I am sorry, Alan."***Lisa barged inside his room like a tornado. She was afraid to see him in bed with his mistress but astonishment widened her eyes for he was sitting near the huge window with her in his lap.She grew more amazed and fearful when she peered at Jenny from head to toe. She was really pretty. It was a face Lisa can't compare her beauty with. She was perfection personified. A figure any man would want to own. Deep dark eyes any guy would want to get lost in them.Her slender fingers remained pressed against his shoulders so tenderly that it made Lisa gulp her saliva. She was really gorgeous and looked like a possession an alpha would obsessively keep with himself. That moment Lisa really felt little in front of her. And the way Alan's hands held her, Lisa felt like crying her heart out. It was a possessive hold as though he owned her exclusively&mda
