Chapter 120: Unlike Lucian

Maelis I stirred awake in an unfamiliar environment, My eyelids felt like they were weighed down by something, but I forced them open just a crack. The world was blurry, but the warmth surrounding me was distinct. I looked up, and my breath hitched. It was him. Lucian. He was holding my head on his lap, his large hand resting gently on my hair, stroking it in a slow, rhythmic motion. His face was turned away, looking out a small window, his jaw set in that hard, brooding line I knew so well. “Was I dreaming?” I had to be. There was no way Lucian would leave his pack, leave his responsibilities, and fly halfway across the world to a hostile territory just for me. That was too much of a risk for the Alpha of the Moonflower pack. “You’re pathetic,” I told myself, a bitter taste in my mouth. “Of all the people to conjure up in a hallucination while you're dying in a basement, you pick him.” But the warmth of his thigh beneath my cheek felt too real. It was a contrast

Chapter 121: Denial Symptoms

Maelis POV “Alpha,” Kellan gasped, ignoring me entirely. “You need to come. Now.” Lucian didn't move from his spot on the bed, though his posture stiffened. “What is it? You can talk here.” Kellan shook his head, his face pale and urgent. “You need to come with me to understand. The Council is here, too. And they're waiting.” “What's going on?” Lucian’s brow furrowed, the softness he had shown me just seconds ago vanishing instantly. He looked like he normally dies, when the situation is beyond normal, deadly serious. “Apparently, a tape was broadcasted all over the states just over a few minutes ago,” Kellan said, his voice tight. “And the people, including the Council, are demanding answers.” “What tape?” “I’m sorry, Alpha, but you won't like it if I say it now.” Kellan said, his eyes flicking toward me. I couldn't help but notice his glare. It was intense, far more than usual. Before, back when he only knew me as a rival Alpha from Moscow, his look held equal parts d

Chapter 122: Malicious broadcast/She's my mate

Lucian POV“Because Maelis is Selene.”The recording ended with a hiss of static, leaving my voice echoing in the council Hall.I stood at the center of the room, my hands clasped behind my back to hide the fact that they were shaking from a rage so hot it felt like it was burning a hole through my stomach.It was edited. Of course it was.They had cut out my desperation to save a life, and the fact that Selene had been kidnapped. All that remained was the sound of a deranged Alpha willing to burn his pack to the ground for a woman who the whole pack thought was dead. “Well?”Elder Tyler sat at the head of the table, the disappointment in his eyes was enough to crush a lesser man.“Is that your voice, Alpha Lucian? The one in a tape that leaked just a while ago.”“You know it is,” I said, my voice steady, though I felt the eyes of every Council member boring into me.“And the statement?” he pressed, leaning forward, “You admitted that the Northern Alpha lady, who was supposed to be o

Chapter 123: Done running

Maelis POVClatter.The iPad slid across the sheets and hit my leg.“A gift from me to you.”Mira said with a fake smile before turning to leave, but just as her hand touched the door handle, she paused and looked back over her shoulder, her eyes cold and hard.“This is just a fraction of what you bring here,” she hissed. “Chaos. Ruin. So, if you like yourself, and God knows you seem to, you better get the hell out of here while you still can. Or else, you'll realize that I'd rather drag Lucian down, and you right along with him than be the one with the loss.”She opened the door and stepped out right after, the click of the latch sounding behind her.“Ugh, what an eyesore.” Rosa grumbled.But I didn't reply to her grumbling as I picked up the device. I didn't want to look, but I couldn't stop myself.On the screen was a video. The quality was a little grainy, but the man in the video was unmistakable. Lucian. His face was twisted in a snarl I had never seen directed at anyone but his

Chapter 124: I am the Alpha

Maelis I held my head high, ignoring the stinging pain in my ribs, and walked into the light of the Hall.I felt their gazes instantly.Elder Tyler looked at me with pure revulsion. The Council members sneered. They looked at me like I was a stain on their pristine floor.I saw Mira standing near the front. She gritted her teeth when she saw me, her mask of the grieving wife she'd put on slipping for a fraction of a second. I shifted my gaze away from her. She didn't matter.My eyes locked on Lucian.He was standing tall, facing the Council, looking like a lone wolf against the world. When he saw me, his eyes widened. For a second, he looked like he was going to scold me.Then, his mouth curved into a reckless, proud grin.“You wanted answers?” he boomed to the room. “She’s right here.”“You...” Elder Tyler stammered, pointing a shaking finger at me. “Who gave you the right to interrupt the Pack's meeting!?”“I believe I am the subject of this meeting, Elder,” I said, my voice raspin

Chapter 125: Only him/ Only flames

Maelis POVThe heavy a doors slammed shut behind us, muting the uproar of the Council Hall, but the noise inside my head was deafening.Lucian didn't stop. His grip on my hand was iron-tight, pulling me down the long, empty hallway. He walked with a speed that was bordering on a run, his strides long and fueled by a chaotic mix of adrenaline and fury.“Lucian, stop!” I gasped, stumbling slightly as my healing ribs protested the movement.He didn't listen. He just kept dragging me, away from the cameras, away from the elders, away from the mess he had just created.“Lucian!”I dug my heels into the floor and yanked my hand back with everything I had.The sudden resistance made him spin around. His chest was heaving, his eyes was wild and dilated. He looked like a man who had just walked off a cliff and was daring gravity to do its worst.“What have you done?” I hissed, my voice trembling with a mix of shock and anger. “Are you out of your mind?”I gestured frantically toward the doors

Chapter 126: You’re heavy, Lucian!

Maelis POVThe kiss grew hotter, igniting a fire I hadn't realized was dormant in my veins.Lucian groaned into my mouth, the sound vibrating against my lips, and before I could catch my breath, the floor disappeared from beneath my feet. He swept me up effortlessly, his arms banding around me like steel. Instinct took over as my legs wrapped around his waist, pulling him closer until there wasn't a breath of space between us.My heart was beating wildly, thudding against his chest in a chaotic rhythm that matched his own. I melted into his warmth, my fingers tangling in the hair at the nape of his neck, deepening the kiss as he carried me down the hall.He didn't stop to check rooms. He just moved with blind urgency.Bang!He kicked a door open and strode inside, carrying me across the room, and with a sharp click, he locked the world out behind us.I moaned into his mouth, the sound lost in the fever of the moment, as he marched toward the bed. He didn't lower me gently. He slamme

Chapter 127: Horndog

Lucian POV “Are the bandages necessary?” Her lips were pouted cutely. And I'm damn sure she had no idea how cute she looked just by making that face alone. “Yes. So you better remember that and stay still so I can wrap them good, and fast too,” I said. We were back in the main estate’s private clinical room now, and I was carefully wrapping fresh bandages around her waist. “But you're squeezing it a little too tight,” she murmured, wincing slightly. “Isn't that a lot coming from the same woman who twisted two metal pieces into me, making sure to touch all the nerve points before pulling a bullet out of me?” “I was saving your life,” she huffed, looking away. “Do you have to make it sound like—” “Like you were trying to kill me?”' “I might've. But it's in the past now.” “Yeah. It is.” I interrupted her, stopping my hands for a second just to stare at her face. If only I could catch that tiny, defiant spark and place a real smile right on her face. I wanted her to smile ever

Chapter 128: Win-win

Maelis“What will happen next?” I breathed, tilting my head back just a fraction, taunting him.A low, vibrating growl ripped from his throat. The playful restraint in his eyes vanished, replaced by a dark, consuming hunger.He didn’t answer with words. His large hand slid up from my waist, being careful not to press on my ribs, and tangled deep into my hair. He pulled my head back, exposing the long column of my neck, and his mouth crashed against my skin.I gasped as his lips branded the sensitive pulse point below my jaw. He sucked and bit lightly, sending a violent shockwave of electricity straight down my spine. My fingers dug into the hard muscles of his arms as my back arched off the mattress on instinct. The thick, rigid heat of his erection pressed firmly against my thigh, grinding subtly as he shifted his weight over me.“Lucian,” I whimpered, my voice breaking.He trailed open-mouthed kisses up my jaw, his breath hot and ragged, until he finally captured my lips. His tongu

Chapter 129: A mate and a Husband

Maelis POVAfter sitting with mom until she fell back asleep, I finally left the hospital wing and headed back toward the main pack house to find Luka.I needed to know what he was going to say this morning before he barged in and saw Lucian and me tangled in the sheets. But he was nowhere I thought he would be, and I had absolutely no idea where Varrick was either. At least Luka might’ve actually run his mouth to Varrick, so finding either of them would have solved the mystery.But searching for those two in this massive estate was like finding a needle in the middle of an ocean. I sighed, deciding to just head back.But just as I passed by the gym I'd gone to meet Lucian the other day, a thought formed in my mind.Instead of just going back inside the room and sleeping or drowning in my own thoughts, why not lift the weight off my chest with a little exercise? It might even help with my recovery.Normally, I would’ve recovered from these injuries much quicker. But the strain, the s
