《My Boss Is The Rumored Beast》全部章節：第 61 章 - 第 70 章

KatlynThe enormous bedroom felt safter I returned from my walk through the estate with the Luna. Instead of appreciating the peaceful silence surrounding me, I found myself pacing restlessly from one side of the room to the other without stopping for even a single moment. Every few steps, I would pause beside the tall windows overlooking the mountain forests before turning around again, unable to settle my increasingly restless thoughts.My mind refused to focus on anything other than the conversation I had shared with Lukas’s mother earlier that afternoon. Every single word she had spoken continued replaying inside my head with frustrating clarity, making it impossible for me to think about anything else. The more I replayed that conversation, the more unsettled I became with every passing minute.One particular moment refused to leave my thoughts completely.The moment she had casually mentioned the word “dead.”I could still remember

Lukas I watched her flee, her small feet pounding against the steps before her bedroom door slammed shut.I stood in the hallway, a slow smirk tugging at my lips.Even from here, the air was thick with it—the intoxicating scent of her terror mixed with that deep, heavy arousal she was trying so hard to deny.My wolf was raging inside my chest, scratching at my ribs, desperate to tear through the wood, pin her down, and finish what we started.Fuck.I leaned against the wall, clenching my jaw as a wave of heat rolled through my veins.I deeply regretted making the diplomatic mistake of drafting that binding contract.I had wanted to tame my wolf, to respect her human boundaries so I wouldn’t break her, but right now?It felt like a trap I’d built for myself.I silently cursed Caleb.He was my Beta, my right hand man.He was supposed to talk me out of stupid legal arrangements like that, not help me write them.My smirk faded as my thoughts shifted to the looming political threat outsi

KatlynI didn’t sleep a single wink for the rest of the night.The moment that woman’s voice cut through the phone, I had slammed the end-call button so hard my finger hurt. I shoved my phone straight back onto airplane mode, tossed it across the mattress, and buried myself under the blankets, my chest heaving with rage.Thalira.Just the sound of her smooth, purring voice calling him darling made my blood boil. I tossed and turned in the dark, kicking the sheets in pure frustration. I hated how my stomach was twisting into agonizing knots, and I loathed the fact that I was reacting like a pathetic, jealous girlfriend.“You are his assistant,” I aggressively whispered to the empty room, squeezing my eyes shut. “You are a human with a legal contract. You do not care if he has a whole line of women outside his door.”But the burning heat in my chest didn’t care about logic. My body was still humming from his filthy words, and knowing another woman was right outside his bedroom while I

KatlynThe royal training was hell.For three straight hours after breakfast, the Luna coached me relentlessly. She had me walking across the grand hall with heavy books stacked on my head, correcting my posture with sharp, stinging taps of her fan whenever I so much as blinked wrong.My toes were numb inside my heels, and my shoulders ached from being forced into a rigid, perfect stance.Just as I thought my legs were going to collapse under me, the Luna stepped in front of me, her expression as cold as ice.“Stand straight, Katlyn,” she commanded, her voice cutting through the room. “You need to learn these protocols twice as fast. You will be marrying the Alpha in a week’s time.”My breath left my lungs.The book slipped from my head, slamming loudly against the marble floor.“What?” I gasped, my heart hammering violently against my ribs. “A week? You have got to be kidding me! Why is there such a sudden rush? The contract said I had time!”From the shadows near the grand archway,

KatlynThe day to meet the pack court finally arrived, and I wanted to vomit the second I saw what they expected me to wear.Laid out on my bed was a traditional garment that was thoroughly despicable. It was this heavy, elaborate gown made of some stiff velvet fabric, embroidered with ancient, creepy-looking wolf crests in silver thread. It looked like something out of a medieval horror movie, designed to mold me into their perfect, submissive little puppet.No way.I glared at the dress, a cold, defiant grin spreading across my face. If they wanted a royal Luna who bowed to their expectations, they were about to get a major reality check.I stormed over to my closet, ripped past the fancy silk robes, and pulled out a simple pair of faded blue jeans and a basic white t-shirt. I threw my hair up in a messy bun, didn’t put on a single drop of makeup, and slid into my beat-up sneakers.I was going to explicitly ridicule Lukas. I wanted to embarrass him so badly in front of his precious,
