Lahat ng Kabanata ng The Alpha's Ex-mate: Reclaiming His Luna: Kabanata 161 - Kabanata 170

My mate’s confidence was unmatched, and why wouldn’t it be? He was the Alpha King, fully aware of the effect his good looks and irresistible charm had on women.“Don’t worry about me. I’m not desperate for a man,” I muttered, my tone laced with annoyance.“That’s exactly why I fall for you more every time I see you, mate,” he rasped, his deep, manly voice sending shivers down my spine. Goddess, resisting this beautiful beast was becoming increasingly difficult.“I’ve heard that line countless times before, Alpha,” I countered with a hint of challenge in my tone.His eyes narrowed, a flash of anger crossing them as his possessiveness took over. “You won’t hear anyone else say that to you, mate,” he growled, his voice dripping with dominance.“Huh, you bet?!” I smirked, thoroughly enjoying the thrill of challenging my Alpha King.“It’s a promise, mate,” he said, his intense eyes locking onto mine. There was no mistaking the sincerity in his words, but I couldn’t resist smiling, teasing

His movements became more urgent as he unbuttoned the shirt I wore—his shirt. His tongue flicked over the swell of my breast, drawing a gasp from me as my body instinctively arched beneath him. But suddenly, a sharp knock on the door shattered the moment, jolting us both back to reality.“Someone’s knocking on the door,” I murmured, trying to squirm free from his hold, though it seemed he had no intention of stopping.“Don’t listen,” he groaned, his hand gripping my other breast as he pushed the fabric of the shirt lower, revealing more of me to his hungry gaze.My breathing hitched as his lips found my hardened nipple, drawing a shiver through my body. “What if... what if it’s Austin?” I managed to whisper, my voice trembling. Memories of our baby boy coming into our room in the mornings flashed through my mind, making my heart race for an entirely different reason.Zander lifted his head slightly, his lips still hovering over their target as he whispered, “I have Blair and Mother to

Zander took the fruit bowl and began placing cut fruit onto my plate, followed by some eggs and sausages.“This... this is way too much for me,” I said, my eyes widening as I realized there was no way I could eat it all.“Eat more, mate,” he replied, his voice laced with teasing. “These are all your favorites, right? You should eat properly. Otherwise, the people of your realm will start gossiping that their queen’s mate doesn’t take care of her.” The arrogance of the alpha king echoed in his voice, and I couldn’t complain. I had known what I was getting into when I chose to love this domineering alpha king.“You’re only concerned about your new mate and have forgotten your son, Zander,” his mother’s annoyed voice cut through the breakfast chatter, making us both turn to her. Her sharp tone brought my attention to Austin, who was pushing his plate away, his little face scrunched up in irritation. His omega nanny was trying, unsuccessfully, to coax him into eating, but he refused to ev

“You're not serious, are you?” I gasped, blinking at him as I nervously leaned back while he leaned closer to me.He chuckled and, oh Goddess, the sound was so deep and teasing. “Why do you look so nervous, mate? I just asked for a kiss. That's it.”“You are… you are shameless,” I mumbled, narrowing my eyes at the clear amusement he was taking in my misery.“If anyone else had said that,” he growled, his voice carrying the unmistakable authority of an alpha, “they would’ve been dead by now.” His tone softened just slightly, though his gaze remained intense. “Only you can say such disrespectful words to me and get away with it. And still, you don’t understand—you don’t need to be nervous around me.”Such a big ego my alpha had. Me? Afraid of him? Never. I was the queen of the Lunar Realm, a descendant of the Moon Goddess herself. I had no reason to fear him.But… somehow, whenever he was this close, his presence seemed to mess with my resolve. My heart betrayed me, pounding loudly in m

*Zander*I received a mind link from the border security team, alerting me that something was wrong. Without wasting a second, I rushed to the headquarters. The air was thick with tension as I entered, and the grim faces of my team only deepened my unease.“Report,” I commanded, my voice sharp as I approached Freya, who stood examining the scene on the monitors.Freya’s expression was grim. “Alpha, we found several people dead in the peripheral regions. Their bodies were discovered in strange and unnatural conditions.”“What do you mean by unnatural?” I demanded, my brows furrowing.“It’s unlike anything we’ve seen before,” she admitted hesitantly. “At first glance, it resembles a plague, but we haven’t been able to identify the cause or source. The tests are inconclusive.”I clenched my fists, anger boiling beneath the surface. “I didn’t appoint the best team to hear vague explanations, Freya,” I growled, my voice carrying the weight of my frustration. “You’re the best in your fields
