Semua Bab The Betrayed Warrior Luna's Second Chance: Bab 31 - Bab 40

ELIZA’S POVAlexander’s lips on mine felt like heaven.He tasted sweet. He tasted like everything I had ever wanted. I could get drunk on his kisses alone.Every inch of my skin tingled as he touched me. His hands traced a slow, teasing path along my waist.His fingers were light as feathers yet they caused a fire wherever they touched. My heart was pounding so loudly that I could hear it.I could barely think as his lips claimed mine. The kiss was soft yet passionate.Slowly, our tongues rolled together and in that moment, I forgot how to breathe or how to think.It was a kiss that left no room for doubt about what he wanted. Alexander’s kisses were intoxicating. It was so overwhelming that my knees were weak beneath me.As his hand slid to the small of my back, pulling me closer, I could feel the desire radiating off him.My wolf was doing a happy dance at the back of my mind. She purred as the kiss deepened.I had no idea why she was acting like this. She’s never been this affected

ELIZA’S POVI sat at my desk with papers scattered in front of me.My mind started to spin as I worked through a dozen different plans at once.The pack’s security was my top priority, but there were so many things at hand—Maya’s attack with the Lycans, political alliances, and the dangers I needed to protect them from.My eyes scanned the maps on my desk, mentally plotting out every defensive measure, every blind spot that could be used against us.And then I heard the door open.I didn’t need to look up to know who it was.My heart skipped a beat as I felt the strong energy of Alexander fill the room. He had that effect on me, always had.I glanced up, and for a moment, I was struck by how handsome he looked.He stood there, tall and commanding in the doorway. His presence filled the room, making everything else seem smaller.For a heartbeat, my wolf stirred inside me.She sensed him, just as I did.There was no hiding it.She was always happy when she saw him.Even though I’d spent

ELIZA’S POVAt that moment, all of my defenses crumbled.I could see the love and sincerity in Alexander's gaze. His blue eyes were filled with so much longing that it made me breathless.My wolf stirred within me. She was practically begging me to surrender to the magnetic pull between us."Eliza," he said softly, "I can't pretend anymore. Be mine, please"I opened my mouth to respond, but no words came out.My heart pounded wildly in my chest, and I felt exposed under his piercing gaze.His hand reached out, gently brushing a stray strand of hair from my face. The tender gesture made my breath hitch. My wolf howled within me, demanding that I close the distance between us, but I was still scared."You feel it too, don't you?" he whispered "This connection… it's undeniable."I swallowed hard. My throat suddenly felt dry."Alexander, I—"He cut me off "Please, Eliza. Just for once, let your heart speak. Forget the rules, the expectations. Just be with me."His plea was so raw, so genu

ELIZA’S POVThe moment I stepped into the Derek and Maya’s banquet hall, all eyes turned to me.I could hear the gasps in the crowd and their whispers too. I could feel their stares, their curiosity, their judgment, but most of all, their admiration.I was dressed in a long white dress that hugged my curves in all the right places, I walked with slow steps. That way, every eye could see me.I wanted them to see me.The slit on the side of my dress revealed just enough of my leg to tease but not enough to cause a scandal.I paired my outfit with gold heels and just the right amount of make up to make heads turn.White was meant for the bride, but today, I had chosen it for myself. It was my silent statement—I was not a woman scorned. I was not someone that would be pushed aside.The wedding was a disaster.Instead of the elegance expected of an Alpha’s wedding, the grand hall was filled with the chaos of rowdy warrior wolves.They drank expensive liquor in the most irritating manner. T

ALEXANDER’S POVThe moment I returned to the capital, I buried myself in royal duties.It was easier that way—easier to pretend I wasn't drowning in thoughts of her.Eliza.Her name was always in my mind. I missed her terribly. My wolf kept clawing at me, calling out for his mate.He demanded that I go back, that I claim her, that I hold her in my arms again.But I couldn't.Not yet. Duty came first, as it always had, as it always would.The grand hall was filled with nobles, generals, and high-ranking officials discussing preparations for the upcoming ceremony.The packs that had distinguished themselves in the border wars were to be honored, and as the heir to the throne, it was my responsibility to ensure every detail was executed flawlessly. But my mind drifted, betraying me.I couldn’t help but think about her.She was always in my mind.I thought of her beautiful eyes, the way she had looked at me, the way she felt in my arms, her lovely scent.Goddess, I was running mad.I coul
