All Chapters of Alpha’s Rue: His Shunned Luna: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

Aeliana would never let me into her head like that, not through the bond, not through the pack link either. I could talk to her through the bond, I could feel her but she won’t let me, but with her, patience proves to be my greatest virtue. Just like she asked me for sex, she will ask me to talk to her through our bond one day. But until then, I will use it to help her as I did at our wedding, she seems to get overstimulated easily but I can calm her when she lets me.Rowan and I part ways at the staircase, he goes up and I head out back. I can still smell her on my skin, I did wash up but it's no use. Even if her scent fades, she’s still under my skin, she is threaded in my brain, she’s in my blood, she is in everything.I find her in the middle of the garden, kneeling in the dirt by a rose bush no one bothers with because of its stubborn thorns. Beside her is David, an old ex patrol guard who got injured defending a foreign pack and has been a gardener since. I’m surprised to see th

“Aeliana,” Luna Estelle taps my shoulder. I snap out of it, noticing everyone already leaving the room, and others crowding Alpha Dante and some Kingston. “They’ll be talking for a while, come on.”I nod, running my hand over my dress to make sure I didn’t soak it through. Luna Estelle leads me out of the office, and we wind up back in the house. I realise I didn't have a chance to look around when we first arrived, and I missed so many details. “Do you want to look at pictures while we wait? Please say yes, my friend was bragging about showing her daughter-in-law, and I want to do it too.”“Yes, Luna.” I smile, even though I've seen all of his and his family's images from his younger years.“Mom,” she corrects me, her smile warm and welcoming.With her gone, I finally take a look at the house again, I didn't get to look at it well when we walked in. Alpha Dante’s pack house is very lived in, the walls have always been decorated with images of their children, nephews, nieces as well

I laugh, the sound small, and broken. “Stop lying, King. It all matters, she matters, when she hurt herself this morning, you looked like you could die. You wanted to talk to me and yet when she screamed...” I trail off, unable to tell him how he chose her over me.He flinches, “She was bleeding.” He says, “I wasn’t fucking her, I was helping her. Would you rather I have left her bleed out?”I want to say yes.But that's too selfish to say out loud, too childish, too jealous. I don’t want to embarrass myself again, but I can’t help how I feel. So, when it comes down to us, the three of us? I will always fall short of composure. I slowly shake my head.“She hurt herself. I reacted. That’s all it was, I would have done the same for—.”“That’s enough,” I argue.“I’m not going to touch her,” he repeats, this time firm and loud. “Not in any way that I touch you, not ever again. The second I decided to marry you, everything else ended. I will never cheat on you with her.”I want to believe

KINGSTONWe don’t leave my parents' house until sometime in the afternoon because Aeliana overslept. I didn’t want to wake her, she was curled against me, and moving would have woken her up. No one in the house bothered to wake us, Aeliana herself woke me when she was ready.Rowan had been calling me for a very long time, but his calls went unanswered because I had my phone muted during the movie last night. We took a quick shower, as quickly as it could get after I decided I was going to eat her pussy for breakfast.The ride back home is quiet, she can barely keep her eyes open. She keeps dozing against the window. I keep stealing glances at her, I should be calm but no, my thoughts are racing, all around her. If anything I’m dazed, slightly confused.All she does is accidentally brush her hand over my leg as she turns up the music and I get the sudden urge to pull over, drag her into my lap, fuck her again. I want to lock her in the house and steal her from the sights of any and eve

AELIANAWhen I return to the packhouse, it’s late, and I’ve already had dinner with Professor Ellingham so I head straight upstairs. Seeing the professor again was nothing short of amazing. It felt good seeing someone from Clinshore, especially him. Professor Ellingham has always been an inspiration to me since my junior year. Lecturers didn’t believe in me. Most thought I was only at the university because my father pulled some strings, but I worked my butt off to get into Riverlane University.Professor Ellingham came not only to visit but also dropped some major news on me once we were done catching up. He told me about a job offer at RU, something more permanent in the research department that could elevate my career. His words still ring in my ears. “This is permanent basis, Hartley. You get to be part of our research team and receive a full scholarship to get your PhD.”It’s an amazing offer, one that could open doors that I’ve dreamed of. It is exactly the offer I was chasing
