My Second Chance With The Alpha 159. They were all I had
I couldn’t help but inwardly smirk at what he was proposing. This was something Bernard had already revealed to me a few days ago. He told me that one day Marcus would approach me regarding this ball and ask me to accompany me. According to Bernard, it was an opportunity I simply can’t let go of because it will help me get closer to Marcus again. While I wasn’t entirely approving of his methods, I knew that I had no other choice. This was my best shot and there was no way I could lose it.“Well,” I said, “When is it going to be?”“This weekend. That is in two days.”“That’s going to be inconvenient. I have work to do.”“I can sort th
My Second Chance With The Alpha 160. A friend
I couldn’t help but inwardly curse at Marcus for delaying our journey.We were supposed to start early in the morning so we could reach our destination by evening. But as usual, Marcus had an important business to take care of before we could set off. When I tried to fish the details out of him, he acted rather defensive, making me even more suspicious. So I instantly texted Bella to find out if she knew more, and she did. Her text went something like:‘I heard screams coming from his room in the morning. Looks like he just revealed to Audrey that he was going to attend the ball with you and not her and that you two will finally get some alone time. Audrey obviously didn’t like it and threw a tantrum. I didn’t fail to hear Marcus say that he was sick of her being so jealous all the time and that she coul
My Second Chance With The Alpha 161. There's a problem
I didn’t realize when I’d fallen asleep or how long I had been out. But when I woke up, I expected to find my head against the cold surface of the window. However, I was surprised to notice that my cheek was pressed against something warm and soft, and my nose was instantly greeted with an all too familiar scent.It didn’t take me long to realize that I was resting my head on Marcus’ shoulder.“Kiara?” His voice greeted my ears, completely waking me out of my sleep. I slightly pulled away, and when I was sure that I heard right, I sat back up straight. When I turned to look at Marcus, he was staring back at me as though he were the one who did the inappropriate thing.“Sorry.” I said, edging away from him.&nbs
My Second Chance With The Alpha 162. I lost that right
Marcus’ POVI awoke in the middle of the night to find my head tangled in her head. Given the size of the bed, we had no choice but to snuggle up against each other. Although we had done this several times in the past, it felt to me that it was the very first time I was holding her so close. It was perhaps because I’d been deprived of this feeling for so long that it was beginning to feel foreign for me. All these days I couldn’t understand what I was feeling for her. I couldn’t explain the sudden disinterest in her, the sudden lack of emotional dependency. Suddenly, I wanted something else, something so bizarre that even my heart couldn’t accept it. In my head, I knew the strategic reasons of why I accepted to marry Audrey, but I couldn’t understand the true reason for it all myself. If it weren’t for that day in the hospital when Kiara saved my life, I perhaps wouldn’t have realized that I still had feelings for her, that I still valued her more than what I let myself believe. Th
My Second Chance With The Alpha 163. Except for one person
Marcus’ POV I watched as Kiara threw her head back and laughed at another one of Jack’s silly jokes. The young lad was charming and kind with a sense of humor that could ease anyone into a conversation, even reserved women like Kiara. It had been long since I saw her like that, making me even more grateful for his presence on this trip. We were currently stopped at an eatery to have breakfast, where I’d stepped away to make a phone call. Every time my heart swelled with emotions towards her, an equally powerful force dragged me away. I had never thought such a thing would be possible where my mind wanted something but I couldn’t get it. But that was how black magic worked. It would drive people to do things that they would never even dream of doing, and they will have no power over it. I understood that part very well when my heart began to see the reality, but there was still very little I could do to prevent anything. Every time I thought about Kiara, my mind would take me ba
My Second Chance With The Alpha 164. Good things from the past
Kiara’s POV Marcus has been acting weird. First he asked to share a bed with me in the cottage last night, and now he was willing to sign us up in the same room. When I’d asked him why we couldn’t stay in separate rooms now that we were at the verge of separation, he gave me a glare. “No couple stays in different rooms.” “But we’re not a couple.” I shrugged, “And I doubt the people around will notice anything.” “I don’t want to risk it.” He said, “Like it or not, as long as we’re here, we need to act like the perfect couple.” I scoffed at him. “Like it or not?” I repeated, “As if I were the one that had a problem with anything.” “We’re going to stay in the same room. End of discussion.” “Geez, fine.” I said, playfully slapping his arm. Mere seconds ago, he was the perfect gentleman who would open the door for me and help me carry my bags, but within seconds he went back to being a rude idiot. Sometimes I really think he was hormonal. Nothing else could explain this bipolar na
My Second Chance With The Alpha 165. I know
I was blind to its beauty before, but the region of Madria was easily one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever been to. It was like Windshire in many ways, like the chill in the air, the beautiful landscape and the warmth of its people. However, it was also vastly different from the somewhat modern way of living of people of Windshire as opposed to the more old school way this region was built. Minutes into the ride, I was greeted with tall buildings that I’d only ever seen in history books before. It felt like people lived in the past here, and the chariot that I was riding no longer seemed odd to my eye. Infact, I saw many versions of it throughout the city. Few had its passengers revealed to the world while the one that we were riding in gave us privacy as we rode through the streets. I suppose ours was more of a carriage. I could sense Marcus’ eyes on me occasionally as I stared out of the window in wonder. He drastically increased my expectations for our destination. He surel
My Second Chance With The Alpha 166. It looks perfect
As I stared at my own reflection in the mirror, I couldn’t help but be pleased with my appearance.The bottle green ball gown Bella picked out for me was proving to be a great choice now, contrary to what I believed before. When we’d initially bought it, I wasn’t sure if it would make me look the way I wanted to tonight. I didn’t mean to stand out but I surely wanted to look different. I wanted to appear fierce and bold, somebody who belonged. Somebody who suited the man she was accompanying, somebody who would be respected as the Luna.At the same time, I wanted to look beautiful. If there was a part of him that initially fell purely for my external beauty, then tonight I wanted to revoke that part of him. I wanted him to court me into the ballroom with pride, reinstating to everyone that I indeed
