RONAN’S POV

I paced back and forth around my chambers, with my heart pounding and my mind racing. I had sent the message to Mira, and now all I could do was wait and hope that she would come. I ran my hands through my hair and tried to calm myself down, but it was impossible, because everytime I closed my eyes, I saw her face, everytime I breathed in, I smelled her scent and everytime I thought about her, I felt the same desperate hunger tbat had been burning inside me since the night we met.

  • Claimed By My Husband’s Best Friend    CHAPTER 38

    MIRA’S POVI was still sitting on my bed, with my hand pressed against my chest, trying to slow down my racing heart. The memory of Dorian’s shocked face after I slapped him kept replaying in my mind, and every time I thought about it, a small smile appeared at the corner of my lips. I had done it. I had finally done something. I had stood up to them.But the smile faded quickly when I thought about the look on Declan’s face, and remembered the way hia eyes had burned with rage when I pushed him away. I knew he was not going to let that go. He was going to come for me and Claudia had seen everything.I was still lost in my thoughts when a sharp knock pulled me back to reality.My heart jumped to my throat, but I did not want to open the door. I did not want to face anyone else tonight. But the knock came again, morr insistent this time, so I forced myself to stand up and open it.A maid stood there with her head bowed low and said in a trembling voice. “The Luna dowager is requesting

  • Claimed By My Husband’s Best Friend    CHAPTER 37

    MIRA’S POVI walked back to my room with my heart pounding amd my hands still trembling from everything that had happened at the dining table. The confrontation replayed over and over in my mind, and I remembered the way Declan had looked at me with cold disdain, the way Dorian had spoken down to me like I was nothing, and the way Ronan had stepped in to defend me when no one else would. I could still feel the heat of the moment, still hear the sharpness of my own voice as I stood up for myself.I closed my door behind me and leaned against it, and let out a shaky breath. I had done it. I had stood up to them. But the victory felt hollow, because I knew the battle was far from over. Declan was not the type of man to let things go. He would come for me and he would try to punish me for my defiance. I was still lost in my thoughts when I heard a knock at my door.I froze, and my heart started pounding again. I did not move, I did not breathe and did not make a sound. I hoped whoever it

  • Claimed By My Husband’s Best Friend    CHAPTER 36

    RONAN’S POVI sat at the dining table, my fingers were wrapped around my coffee cup, but my eyes were fixed on her. Mira. She had walked into the room with her head held high and her back straight, and for a moment, I forgot to breathe. She looked so beautiful, so strong, so different from the broken woman I had held in my arms just hours ago. But I could not stare. I had to look away. I had to be careful.The lunch was tense from the moment she sat down. Declan was cold and distant, as always, and Dorian stood behind him like a shadow, watching every thing with those sharp, calculating eyes of his.Then it happened.Dorian stepped forward and spoke to Mira in a cold and commanding manner. “Mind your words, Luna. You should not speak to the Alpha in that manner. It is disrespectful. You are the Luna and you should alway know your place.”I felt my blood boil and my fingers gripped the coffee so hard I thought it might shatter. Who was this guard to speak to her like that? Who was he t

  • Claimed By My Husband’s Best Friend    CHAPTER 35

    MIRA’S POVI walked through the pack house with my head held high, but my mimd was racing and my palms were sweating terribly. Every step I took felt heavy, like I was walking towards something I was not ready to face. I had just managed to escape Claudia’s interrogation, but I knew the danger was not over. There was still lunch. There was still Declan and there was still the risk of being caught in my lies.I changed quickly into fresh clothes and took a deep breath before leaving my room. The dining hall was already full when I arrived, and the sight of everyone seated at the table made my stomach drop. Ronan was there, looking handsome and composed, his amber eyes finding me the moment I walked in. Silas was beside him, amd on the other side of the table sat Declan, who is cold and distant as always, with Dorian standing behind him like a shadow.I forced myself to walk to my seat and sat down, focusing all my attention on the plate in front of me. I could feel Ronan’s gaze on me,

  • Claimed By My Husband’s Best Friend    CHAPTER 34

    RONAN’S POVI watched Mira slipped through the back door of Zara’s boutique, and I felt my heart fill up with worry. I wanted to follow her inside, to make sure she was safe, to protect her from whatever Claudia was about to throw at her. But I could not. I had to trust her and let her handle this on her own.I stayed hidden in the shadows for a long time, with my eyes fixed on the back door. I listened closely for any sound of struggle, any raised voices, or any sign that something was wrong. But the only sound I could hear was the distant hum of the city and the beating of my own heart.Seconds turned into minutes, and I felt the silence as both a relief and a torment. It meant she has it covered, but it also meant I could not hear her, could not know what is happening, and could not be there to help if she needed me.Finally, after what felt like forever, I decided it was safe to leave. I slipped away from the boutique and made my way back to the pack house, with my mind still full

  • Claimed By My Husband’s Best Friend    CHAPTER 33

    MIRA’S POVMy heart was pounding so loudly that I was sure Ronan could hear it from across the room. Claudia was at Zara’s boutique, and she knew I was not where I was supposed to be. The peace of the morning had shattered into a thousand pieces, and now I was scrambling to pick them up before it all fell apart.“We need to go,” I said in a shaking voice as I grabbed my clothes and started dressing. My hands trembled so badly tbat I could barely button my shirt. “She cannot find out about this. She cannot know I was here with you.”Ronan was already on his feet, with a worried look on his face. “I will help you get back,” he said firmly. “You are not going alone.”I looked at him, and I saw the concern in his amber eyes. He was worried about me and he wanted to protect me. But I could not let him get involved. Not yet.“Just get me to the boutique,” I said. “I will handle the rest.”He nodded and quickly dressed. Within minutes, we were out of the hotel room and making our way through
