last update Last Updated: 2025-12-09 21:38:33

Danielle’s POV

Those exact words of his make the walls of my stomach tighten. Something I find hard to explain, almost like a sharp tug inside my chest, followed by a warmth I absolutely do not want to acknowledge.

Only now he’s still standing in front of me, breathing hard, eyes blazing with a mix of anger and something else, something I’m not ready to name in my head.

I swallow. “Rhett—”

“No.” His voice cuts through mine, causing the voices in my head to go completely silent. “You don’t understand.”

“I don’t think I should,” I push back, stepping toward him. “Plus I understand perfectly well that you’re angry—”

“Angry?” He laughs under his breath, but there’s no humor in it. “You think this is about anger?”

He takes a slow step toward me, closing the space between us so swiftly that I feel the heat rolling off him. And deep within me, I know I should look away from those damn eyes of his.

But I don’t; instead, I stand there, letting his words consume me. Letting my heart be affected

  • The Wolfless Luna And The Alpha King   Chapter 92

    Danielle’s POVBreakfast with Rhett feels nothing like I imagined it would. Nothing what it has felt like for the past couple of months here.It isn’t stiff or formal or weighed down by the weight of last night, as I expected. Instead, it’s… quiet. Not uncomfortable either, just charged, like everything between us is suspended on a thin thread that could snap if either of us breathes wrong.The morning light from the sun pours into the dining room, spilling across the long table dressed in linen and silverware that beams like it’s rarely used. I sit across from him, hands folded in my lap, acutely aware of every inch of space between us and of the fact that I woke up wrapped in his arms only hours ago.He pours coffee himself, no servants hovering like usual. No Alpha commands like other days—just Rhett.That alone unsettles me.And for some reason in my eyes, he looks different in the morning, less guarded. His hair slightly disheveled, shirt open at the collar, sleeves rolled to hi

  • The Wolfless Luna And The Alpha King   Chapter 91

    Danielle’s POVI wake slowly, drifting up from sleep with the strange sensation of warmth wrapped too tightly around me and at first it feels like I’m still dreaming.The bed now feels completely soft under my weight. My body for some reason feels heavy in that languid, boneless way it only does after a deep, uninterrupted rest. My cheek is pressed against something firm and warm, rising and falling steadily beneath me.I inhale and then I freeze. A familiar cologne scent hits me all at once. A scene too familiar and something unmistakably… Rhett.My eyes snap open.For a heartbeat, my mind refuses to make sense of what I’m seeing. A broad chest fills my vision, bare skin and my fingers; my fingers are curled into muscle, as if they belong there. Like they’ve been there all night.And then it hits me when I look down.I’m naked.The realization slams into me so hard my breath leaves in a sharp gasp.I clamp my hand over my mouth instantly, my heart hammering so violently I’m sure it

  • The Wolfless Luna And The Alpha King   Chapter 90

    Rhett’s POVI freeze for a moment staring into her eyes, too close this time. Zane claws right through my chest repeatedly, needing release.Too close in my head, too damn close. And right now, I know too well that if I take even one step forward, there will be no turning back.Her lashes flutter, her breath now shallow, lips parted just enough that my wolf growls low in my chest. Zane doesn’t care about restraint, timing, or consequences. He wants her and wants now. Wants the truth ripped bare between us.And that terrifies me more than any enemy ever has.I force my hands to stay at my sides even as every instinct screams to touch her—to anchor myself in the proof that she’s real, that she’s here, that this isn’t another cruel dream my wolf has fed me for months.She smells like warmth and lavender all at once and something uniquely her. Something that makes my chest ache.Her breath hitches, the smallest sound, barely there—but my body reacts like it’s a command. My muscles tense,

  • The Wolfless Luna And The Alpha King   Chapter 89

    Danielle’s POVI say nothing, and I don’t answer right away. I mean, I can’t. Because the moment the words leave Rhett’s mouth, do you remember kissing me in the woods?—something inside me splinters.It’s subtle at first, a flicker maybe. A pull so faint I almost convince myself it’s nothing more than nerves in my bodyAlmost, I think so.I blink once. Then again. My fingers tighten around the stem of my glass as if it’s the only thing anchoring me to the present.The flowers around us suddenly feel too quiet, and that makes it hard to focus right now.“Woods?” I said earlier, forcing a small laugh that doesn’t quite land. “—I don’t know what you’re talking about,” I continue. The lie from my lips slips out smoother than I expect. Sounding more like I’d practiced.But surprisingly, Rhett doesn’t speak. And I find that way worse.His eyes search my face this time without a word, not accusingly like I expect but with a stillness that makes my skin prickle like he’s waiting for somethin

  • The Wolfless Luna And The Alpha King   Chapter 88

    Rhett’s POV“The woods?” she asks, brow lifting, the words coming out awkwardly as I part my lips to add more. The question lands harder than any accusation ever could.For half a second, the world freezes. Candles flicker around us, and the soft music drifting from somewhere beyond the garden fills the air, but all of it somehow fades when she asks.Every sound dulls. Every sense in me sharpens. My wolf stirs, alert in a way it hasn’t been all evening.The woods.She says it like it’s nothing, like it doesn’t matter. Like it’s a place she’s never been, never grumbled in, never kissed a stranger under the watch or the moon.Like it didn’t change everything in me, from that night to finally deciding to take her away.I force my jaw to unclench before she notices. Seeing that she's watching me too closely now with her arms wrapped around herself, her posture guarded in a way that’s become painfully familiar and defensive as always.And suddenly, it dawns. The realization is now quiet in

  • The Wolfless Luna And The Alpha King   Chapter 87

    Danielle’s POV“I didn’t know if you’d come,” he finally says, breaking the silence between us. I nod without looking at him as I settle into the chair across from him. But surprisingly, this time he helps me get into the chair, just like every gentleman would.But I can’t say a word, instead I swallow looking elsewhere other than at him.I sit across from Rhett, my hands folded neatly in my lap, fingers curled so tightly I’m sure they’ll leave marks in my skin.This time, I don’t trust myself to touch anything, not the tablecloth, not the glass of wine placed gently beside my plate, and certainly not him.Because if I do, I’m not sure I’ll survive it. Not sure I’ll survive the look in his eyes, the warm pull in between my legs, or the intimate tension growing between us.And as expected he watches me in silence, Not the Alpha stare I’m used to, the sharp, assessing one meant to command obedience—but someone quieter. Something dangerously intimate lingers in the air. His eyes don’t
