Todos los capítulos de To The Highest Bidder: Mated To Alpha Lukan : Capítulo 31 - Capítulo 40

LUKAN."You are going nowhere."Mother said but before she could say another word I bolted out of the room.Then my phone buzzed again in my pocket as I left the penthouse, cutting through my thoughts like a sharp blade. I didn't bother looking at the screen until I reached my car. Rosita. Again .I sighed , leaning against the door for a moment , staring at the sky wishing I could ignore it. But Rosita never called twice, unless it was something urgent. I swipe to answer , irritation already crawling up my spine. "What is it Rosita?"My tone was clipped sharper than usual. "Alpha you have guest at the pack house,"she said her voice steady with t the hint of unease. She has been with me since I was a child—she could always sense when I was in one of my moods. "Tell them to wait,"I said flatly."I have—""Its Claudia, Alpha,"she interrupted. I froze the name sticking in my mind like a splinter. Claudia? The name sounded so strange. "Its Beta Ronan's third daughter."she added quic

LEMUELI felt it was better if we got to sit at the rooftop garden. At least it will be a nice way for Merida to forget about what Lukan did.The warm evening air and the sound of rustling leaves below made it a perfect place and it wrapped around Merida and me like a comforting blanket. I glanced over at her sitting quietly beside me, her soft hair catching the light of the setting sun. I guess she was probably replaying the scene of what happened minutes ago over and over again in her head. But she looked better now and there were shadows under her eyes which looked like she was thinking about something else. "Do you like it up here?"I asked, hoping to ease her into a conversation. Her shyness made it hard for her to open up and I didn't want to push her too far ,too soon.Merida tucked a strand of hair behind her ear, her fingers brushing against her cheeks as if still feeling the sting of what had happened earlier. She hesitated, her voice barely a whisper when she finally res

MERIDA The cool night air hit me the moment we stepped out of the Pack House, and for a brief second I welcomed it. My heart was already racing , my palms sweaty as Lukan's hand wrapped around mine guiding me towards the car. We were supposed to be going to dinner—a date—but something didn't feel right. It hadn't felt rice for a while, and the knot in my stomach had only tighten things we left As we reached the parking lot, I stopped walking. I pulled my hand free from his grip. It wasn't a smooth motion—it was jerky, awkward and unplanned. Lukan turned to look at me, surprise me flickering across his face "Merida?"His voice was laced with confusion, maybe even amusement."What's wrong?" I swallowed hard, my mouth suddenly dry. This wasn't like me. I didn't speak up. I don't cause scenes. I was supposed to be the quiet one ,the agreeable one, the one who never pushed back But tonight.... Tonight was different .I couldn't keep pretending anymore "I don't want to go,"My voi

LEMUEL. If I had wanted the evening to go well and smoothly,it was definitely not what I was seeing now. I felt a course of rage drive through me and the bitter taste of distaste and anger made my head spin. I knew Lukan so well but this side of him , of acting up so strange and then so nice as if what happened, it never happened in the first place was really crazy. No apology. No nothing. What was he thinking, waltzing in here like he laid the foundations of the pack house. He could be the Alpha but he really need to stop playing with Merida's feelings She was always struggling with her feelings and all that but what was rude of him, was to keep playing with her emotions just because she couldn't talk back at him and he ,feeling like he had the right to. "We won't be having dinner." He said peeking her on the left cheek and I really wanted to give him a punch. He was supposed to apologize to Merida for what he had done earlier. At least that would be fair and now he had tu

LUKAN. The dinner date with Merida had gone just as expected, even though she didn't seem too happy to go with me but I really didn't mind , it was my way of apologizing though. I knew already that Lemuel was quite angry with me but I wasn't really bothered about what that kid thought of me. Merida was my mate and not his. And the late night arrival, it was just a ploy to know if Zayna would get tired of waiting for me and eventually leave. "Good morning," I said to Merida , who turned to stare at me . She had woken up before me and was staring down the balcony. She didn't say a word just nodded and looked away . It was a Saturday morning and I felt so relaxed , I was supposed to have a little discussion with the investigator today but again, I wasn't feeling like having that conversation. Maybe some other time , I had ask some questions, just giving him ample time to dig further on Merida's case. I was staring at the mirror ,at the stubble that were quietly springing f
