Zara Pov

My fingers tightened around my spoon. I glanced at Lucian, unsure how to answer.

He set his coffee down.

"Zara isn't going anywhere today, Mira."

"Not today," she repeated, frowning. "But what about tomorrow?"

Lucian's jaw tightened.

I reached for her hand and held it

"Sweetheart, I'm here now. And if anything ever changes, I promise I'll talk to you about it. I won't just disappear without saying goodbye."

She considered that for a moment before nodding.

"Okay."

Then she leaned agains

  • The Alpha's Plus-Size Contract Luna    Chapter 36 The Lie That Kept Her Away

    Lucian's POVI closed the door to my bedroom and leaned against it, releasing a breath I hadn't realized I was holding.Her tears were still fresh in my mind.The way she had wrapped her arms around me, begging me not to leave. The way her voice had trembled when she admitted how much she had missed me.And the worst part?I had wanted to turn around.I had wanted to pull her into my arms, kiss her forehead, and tell her that I had missed her every damn day.But I hadn't.Instead, I had given her another reason to believe I didn't want her.I dragged a hand through my hair and walked towards the bathroom.The wound on my shoulder had started bleeding again. I removed my shirt and examined the injury in the mirror. It was a deep cut, but nothing I couldn't handle.I had survived worse.Much worse.But what I could barely handle was the pain in my chest.Three months ago, I had left the mansion because I couldn't stand being around Zara.Not because I didn't want her.Because I wanted h

    Zara Pov"Zara, we need to talk about what happened before I left."My heart began beating faster because I know what he's talking about."The kiss?"He nodded, then slowly dropped the medical kit in his hand."I shouldn't have allowed that to happen."I stared at him."Why?""Because it crossed a boundary we agreed to respect.""You kissed me first, Lucian. I didn't force you," I whispered, my voice trembling with hurt as I struggled to hold back the tears threatening to spill from my eyes."I know." He sighed heavily."Then why are you behaving as though we did something wrong?"He closed the medical kit."I don't want you to misunderstand what happened between us."My eyes burned."Was it a mistake?"He looked at me, and for a brief moment, I saw something in his eyes that made me hope then he spoke just one single word that changed everything completely."Yes."The single word felt like a slap across my cheeks, so I lowered my gaze."Okay.""Zara, I'm sorry. I should never have al

    Zara’s POVNobody moved.Lucian stood beside me, holding my hand, while his cold gaze travelled across the faces of everyone present."I asked a question," he said. "Why was my wife pushed to the ground?"The school administrator swallowed before stepping forward."Alpha Blackthorne, I assure you there has been a misunderstanding. We were only trying to resolve a disagreement between the children." He explained, bowing his head."A disagreement?" Lucian repeated. His eyes moved towards my injured side. "Is that what you call having security officers physically restrain a woman?"The administrator opened his mouth but couldn't find an answer.Cole finally stepped forward."Look, I don't know what your relationship with Zara is, but you need to understand that this is a private school, and I am one of its major sponsors."Lucian turned towards him. "Are you threatening me with your sponsorship?"Cole hesitated but spoke anyway."That's not what I said.""Good. Because I would hate to th

    Zara’s POV"She's my daughter. I won't stay out of it."My words seemed to irritate Cole more than I expected and he stared at me as though I had just committed an unforgivable offence."Your daughter?" he repeated sarcastically. "Since when did you become so comfortable claiming someone else's child?"I felt Mira's little fingers tighten around mine. Before I could respond, Selena stepped forward."Don't start making a scene here, Zara. We all know you're only looking after Lucian's daughter because he pays you to do it."I looked at her calmly."Whatever arrangement exists between my husband and me is none of your business."Selena's smile disappeared.Cole folded his arms. "You should be careful how you speak to us. This school is partly funded by my company. I wouldn't want your little arrangement with the Blackthornes to become a problem."I almost laughed.Even after everything that had happened, Cole still believed he could intimidate me with his money."Then perhaps you should

    Zara’s POVThree months.It had been three months since Lucian Blackthorne walked out of my bedroom, leaving behind a note that explained nothing and a silence that seemed determined to swallow every hope I had of seeing him again.Three months without a phone call.Three months without a message.Not even a simple question asking how Mira and I were doing.At first, I had convinced myself he was genuinely busy handling pack affairs. Then the days became weeks, and the weeks slowly turned into months. Eventually, I stopped checking my phone every few minutes, although a small part of me still hoped his name would appear whenever the screen lit up.The frustrating thing was that he had made sure we lacked nothing.My salary continued arriving in my personal account. The household staff attended to our needs, Mira had everything she could possibly ask for, and Marcus occasionally checked on us. Whenever I asked about Lucian, however, Marcus offered the same vague response."Alpha Lucian

  • The Alpha's Plus-Size Contract Luna    Chapter 31 Not the same woman

    Zara Pov I couldn't miss the shock that flicker across Selena's face at my declaration.For a moment, Selena said nothing. Her eyes remained fixed on my ring. I noticed the slight change in her expression.She recognized it.Everyone familiar with the powerful Alpha families knew about the Blackthorne family heirloom. It was an exceptionally valuable ring that had been passed down through generations.Her surprise, however, quickly turned into laughter like she was watching me act comedy."Wait. Are you seriously telling me you're married to Lucian Blackthorne?" She let out a chuckle laughter."That's exactly what I said."She shook her head."Zara, please. Even you should know when to stop embarrassing yourself. That ring could be fake. Do you honestly expect me to believe that a man like Lucian would marry someone like you?"I felt Mira move closer to my side and before I could respond, she looked up at Selena."Don't talk to my mommy like that."Selena glanced down at her, then sh
