บททั้งหมดของ The Alpha's Ex-Mate: บทที่ 21 - บทที่ 30

*Zander*I had to let go of Selena because I received a mind link from Maddox."Alpha, Vampire Prince Damon is waiting for you in your office."Lyon growled in frustration. He wanted to know what hidden motives our ex-mate had, but due to the urgency of the matter, I had to leave. However, before departing, I made sure to remind her that our business wasn't finished.Vampires and werewolves were always eternal enemies locked in a blood feud spanning centuries. What could possibly bring the Vampire Prince to my doorstep? I knew better than to trust those bloodsucking creatures of the night, yet I couldn't help but be intrigued by his intentions behind this peace pact proposal.With determination, I swiftly departed from the pack house. Striding purposefully through the hallways and opening the door to my office, I took in the sight before me. Vampire Prince Damon stood in the center, emanating an aura of icy elegance. His blond hair cascaded down his shoulders, framing a face masking a

*Selena*Blair and I returned to the pack house, tired from her shopping spree. As soon as we arrived, I seized the opportunity and made my way swiftly to Zander's room. Earlier, I had managed to imprint the key so that I could create a duplicate at a later time when I found a moment to spare from my daily responsibilities. With this duplicate key in my possession, accessing the data room would no longer be an issue.Patiently, I bided my time, waiting for nightfall when the entire pack house would retire to their beds, enveloped in deep slumber. It was during this period that the guards' shifts were scheduled to change, presenting the perfect opportunity for me to make my move. As the hours ticked by, I maintained a watchful eye, ensuring that the pack house was shrouded in silence and stillness. The quietude of the night served as my ally, granting me the freedom to proceed undetected toward my objective. With each passing minute, anticipation coursed through my veins, heightening

*Zander* In the dimly lit room, the soft glow highlighted my gaze fixed on a solitary figure slouched over the bar counter, her head resting on her arm as she sat on the barstool. Selena Ardolf, the epitome of stubbornness and rebellion, had always been a challenge. I knew she couldn't handle the potent alcohols from my collection, specially crafted for werewolves. They were far too strong for normal humans or werewolves without a wolf to bear. That's precisely why I had forbidden her from indulging in them. Yet, she persisted in sneaking in, just as she had done today, and the result was evident—she had passed out, succumbing to the potent drink's effects, just like she had in the past. Taking a few cautious steps forward, I stood before her, peering closely at her beautiful face. Her pink, full lips were slightly parted, and her enchanting hazel eyes remained closed. The smooth rise and fall of her breath indicated a peaceful slumber, and the stress and animosity she held for me

*Selena* Zander's unexpected tenderness caught me off guard. It was as if a different side of him had emerged, a softer facade that contradicted the enigmatic and mysterious persona he projected. However Zander's attempt to sway me with his sweet talk was futile. He thought his words could change my mind, but he was utterly, absolutely wrong. I knew him far too well to fall into his manipulative trap again. Behind his enchanting talks, charming smile, and alluring eyes, there was a monster hiding. I was aware that I shouldn't gaze into his eyes, as they possessed the power to cast a spell over me. Yet, I couldn't help but be drawn to those deep blue orbs, captivating and hypnotizing. He slowly lowered his head, his movements filled with desire. My heart raced in my chest, anticipation coursing through my veins. I couldn't tear my eyes away from his, the intensity of his gaze locking me in place. "Selena!" he whispered my name as his lips brushed against mine. A gasp escaped my l

*Zander*Selena abruptly left me standing alone in the Royal medicinal garden She ran away from me just as she always did, and this time the excuse was Blair. Confusion and a lingering sense of unease gnawed at my insides as I watched her back, walking away from me. What the hell just happened between us?! Her taste and her smell still lingered in my senses. I was shocked at how I behaved around her as if I wasn't myself.Looking around, I found no bad signs but, instead, a pleasant vibe in the surroundings, just like she always left behind her. The soothing scent calmed my stress, awakening some emotions and desires I thought had died within me.Taking a deep breath and inhaling the enchanting fragrance that was fading after her departure, I sprinted toward the pack house at my Alpha's lightning-fast speed.Upon reaching the pack house, I directly set out to confront Avery, the one person I trusted above all others. I needed to hear it from her.Entering Avery's room, I found her sea
