Semua Bab Craving His Rejected Luna: You will regret leaving me, Alpha: Bab 81 - Bab 90

Lucian’s POVI don't remember the drive halfway to New Jersey, where Ethan's pack is situated, ever being this long until now.My patience was running thin to the point of snapping. Neither of us three in the vehicle spoke a single word to one another. The tension in the air was exceptionally thick, suffocating enough to choke on.After what felt like a lifetime, the car finally turned onto a road different from the one where we got attacked the other day.About five minutes deeper into the woods, the car slowed to a halt at a perimeter fence I remembered as the back boundary of Ethan's territory.I didn't wait for the engine to cut. I yanked the door open, stepping out onto the gravel before anyone else.Ethan stepped out right after me. Kellan, who had decided to join us the moment he learned Selene was actually Maelis, stepped out last, shutting the door with a heavy thud.“Where did she disappear?” I asked Ethan immediately.I was impatient, my wolf pacing in my mind, but I knew

Maelis POV Now release her, or I’m going to be fucking her straight on the chair.” he said, and not long after do I feel movements around me, and the more I feel, the more the right ropes around my wrist and hand loosened.Panic rose in my chest as I felt my stomach turn. I was weak... Unnaturally weak, My arms felt hollow, like they weren’t really mine. Even breathing felt like work, each breath shallow and strained, my chest tightening painfully.Still I was glad. At least Ethan and Melanie weren't here, and she wasn't the one tied up and being treated this way. Judging by the silence, they had escaped. That was my only consolation.The final knot slipped loose.My hands dropped limply to my sides.I should’ve felt free.Instead, a feeling I hadn't felt in years wrapped tighter around my throat.My vision blurred at the edges, darkness creeping in as my body swayed forward, unable to support itself anymore. Whatever they had done to me, whatever I’d eaten, breathed in, or been ex

Lucian’s POV Mira stood there, her eyes wide, scanning Selene’s bruised face and my bloodied shoulder. “Who is this?” she finally demanded tightly. “And why do you have her pressed to your chest?” Seriously? She was still pretending even now? She had clearly heard me declare that I was going after Selene, who was Maelis. There's no way she missed that when she had been standing right here then. I knew she was playing a game, trying to assert her position in front of any passing staff. But maybe it was for the best she asked anyway. I didn't bring Selene here to hide, and I didn't plan on keeping her a little secret either. “My wife,” I answered, my voice raw and completely devoid of emotion. The woman looked at me incredulously, then forced a small, brittle laugh, as if I had just told a bad joke. Like she hadn't heard what I said, she inched closer, her hand rising to touch my uninjured arm like she cared. I dodged her hand swiftly. The action was instinctual, a reaction root

Lucian’s POV “What plans are you talking about? Who’s coming?” Ryan just tilted his head, his smile widening into a predatory grin. “Don't be impatient, dear brother,” he drawled, enjoying my discomfort. “It’s coming. It’s even closer than it ever was, so you won’t be curious for long.” “He’s probably bluffing, Alpha, trying to get your attention away,” Kellan muttered, his hand still clamped tightly on my arm. “Ask him about Selene.” Kellan was right. That was why I was here in the first place, and this manipulative son of a bitch had played a good game diverting my attention. I wanted to break the bars into pieces and drag him out of that cell, smash his head against the stone wall until he couldn’t smile anymore. But I knew I had to calm myself down if I was going to get any information out of his mouth. I took a deep, shaky breath. “What did you do to her?” I asked, my voice dangerously level. “How should I know?” He was lying. I could smell the faint scent of satisfact

Melanie's POV When we reached the door to the medical suite, Lucian stopped with his hand hovering over the handle. Even if it was just for a moment. I saw it then. Not the Alpha. Not the cold bastard who broke Selene’s heart. A man who was terrified. “If she wakes up and says no,” I said quietly behind him, because someone had to say it out loud, “you walk away.” His fingers curled into a fist. “Yes.” “And if she doesn’t wake up at all…” He closed his eyes. “Then I’ll live with that,” he said hoarsely. That was the moment I knew there was no stopping this anymore. Lucian opened the door and he entered, followed by me, though Ethan didn’t come inside. He stayed outside the suite, his back pressed flat against the wall beside the door, head bowed, fists clenched so tight his knuckles had gone white, though his face was turned away to hide the moisture in his eyes. Lucian twisted the knob then and he entered, Though I was at the doorframe with the door wid
