Semua Bab The Alpha Who Saved Me: Bab 21 - Bab 27

Remi POV“Touch me.”Her words now sounded like a threat.Maybe it was because she had been too gentle with me before — I had almost forgotten my place.With a shaky hand, I reached out and held one of her breasts, causing a moan to escape her lips. Her grip on my hair loosened, my head falling back down just as she leaned forward, kissing me more urgently.“I love you so much,” she whispered.My other hand tightened into a fist.Although I didn’t say it back, I touched her like she wanted me to, letting her make love to me — but inside, I was somewhere entirely else.For some odd reason, my mind couldn’t stop replaying the image of Zanye’s smile — and somehow, that’s what helped me get through it.Until she finally collapsed beside me, breathless and satisfied.****“What’s the relationship between Luna Selene and Alpha Damon?” I asked, seated in an almost isolated part of the mansion where I had a clear view of everything happening outside.Vivian and Nadia exchanged a glance before

Remi’s POVAfter the party was over and most of the guests had gone back inside, I stayed curled up on the cold floor.When Nikolai stepped forward to help me up, Damon waved his hand dismissively.“She can walk back on her own..”Even though my body ached all over, I took a deep breath and forced myself up, wincing in pain as I slid into the black dress.I glanced back at him as he casually fixed his pants.Disgust twisted in my gut. I cursed under my breath and turned away, walking back toward the mansion, ignoring the stares from the staff lining the hallway.Just as I was rounding the corner, a rough hand grabbed mine and yanked me aside.I gasped, stumbling back, and my back hit the wall hard. Before I could react, my eyes widened seeing it was one of the council members—the same one with silver hair.His eyes burned with lust as he stepped closer, unbuckling his pants like he’d done this a thousand times before.“Give me a quick head,” he said.I blinked, still trying to process

Remi POVHer question completely caught me off guard. I paused in my tracks.“Wh… what do you mean?” I asked, my voice quieter than I intended.Vivian stopped too. Her eyes moved over me from head to toe, like she was trying to figure something out. But why?“It’s just…” she began, sounding a bit unsure. “I’ve noticed that Luna Selene is… nice to you. Not that she’s completely evil or anything, but she never really pays attention to the other courtesans. And…”She hesitated.“…I’ve seen her leaving your room. At night.”My stomach clenched, and my fingers twisted at my sides.How was I supposed to respond to that?I thought they all knew — or at least had some idea — of what went on behind these closed doors. But even if they didn’t, how could I say it out loud?Oh, your Luna comes to my room every night because she’s an obsessed psycho who forces me into sex.Yeah. That’s not something you just say.Not even when it’s the truth.I sucked in my breath and looked away, pretending to fo

Remi PoVI froze as her lips crashed into mine, nibbling softly on my bottom lip. It would’ve been easy to push her away, but it happened so fast and out of nowhere that my brain was having a hard time keeping up.“Wow,” she whispered against my lips. “You taste really good. I can see why everyone’s obsessed with you.”That was supposed to be a compliment, but I didn’t take it as one.For some odd reason, my heart was racing. And just as she was about to pull back, I don’t know what came over me—but I suddenly held her in place and pulled her in for another kiss.She froze for a second, clearly not expecting me to kiss her back. But then she melted into it, even deepening the kiss. Her lips were soft and tasted sweet.I didn’t know why I did it. Maybe because, for a second, I hated the idea of being used again and just wanted to take back control. Or maybe… maybe it was because I could sense the deep sadness behind her eyes, and this was the only way I knew how to offer comfort.Whate
