All Chapters of 50 Days To Love: Dying Alpha's Human Little Wife : Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

Leah's POV."Leah," Lucien looked at me, but before he could say anything else, the door flew open, breaking off the handles.Immediately I looked up in a panic but even though it seemed like Lucien was still frozen, his eyes refused to leave my face, I froze when I saw Adrian standing in the doorway looking back at me.They found us! At that point I didn't know whether to dance or shout. I knew they were going to search after all it was their Alpha right? It felt like a heavy stone or whatever was heavier than that had been lifted off my shoulders."Leah..." Adrian’s voice cracked as relief showed across his face, but it instantly vanished as his eyes gazed over my swollen lips and my half-unbuttoned shirt."Adrian, wait…" I scrambled, my hands trembling as I tried to button my shirt. "It’s not…""Don't," Adrian cut me off, his voice was different… it was more rough over the edge now. His jaw clenched so tight I thought his jaw was going to break and fall off his face. He wouldn't ev

Leah’s POV."Watching you fall for a dead man?" Adrian’s raspy voice cut me off, filled with pain. "Is fucking killing me."I froze, it was like the air around me had evaporated. My hand was still resting against his chest, I could feel the rapid thud of his heart. I stared up at him, my mind spinning into a complete mess."I… I…" My voice strayed off as I stammered. "He’s just a friend, Adrian. Like you."Adrian let out a laugh that held no humor at all as he stared straight into my soul. He didn't drop his hands from my arms. "Is he really, Leah?" Adrian asked, his eyes searching my face with an intensity that made me want to shrink away. At that point I desperately wished the ground would open up and swallow me. "Look me in the eye and tell me he’s just a friend…” I looked at me, expecting me to say something, anything but when I didn't he nodded. “Leah, before you go any deeper into this, you had better think deeply about where you’re standing. Staying here... staying near him... i

Lucien’s POVThe moment I stepped back into my study, I pushed the door shut and began to pace back and forth across the room. My wolf was thrashing against my mind snarling, clawing for control and demanding that I go back downstairs, tear down her door, and lock her away where no one could ever lay a hand on her again… the last time I let my wolf take control I remember that he almost killed an elder and it was really difficult holding him in.“She is your cure,” I told my wolf, gripping the other end of my desk until the wood began to crack beneath my hand. “She is your private physician… temporary arrangement. She is not your mate. Yes we want her but does she want us? She is not yours to claim.”It was a lie, and my wolf knew it. Every breath of her scent that lingered in the room was driving me out of my mind. The memory of her soft lips under mine, the way she had looked at me with those brown eyes, even the pain in her eyes made me restless… I was an Alpha King and I had comman

Chapter 38: the heir Leah’s POVUnfortunately, I had to go and have dinner with everyone and it was so uncomfortable.I sat at the far end of the table, pushing a piece of toast around my plate. Lucien sat at the head, surrounded by stacks of tablet screens, leather-bound pack reports, and a steaming black coffee. We still weren't speaking and Adrian stood near the glass French doors overlooking the foggy estate grounds, keeping his usual quiet, watchful guard and just then the doors of the dining hall opened up and Owen walked in, he was dressed in a tailor-made suit, and also carrying a tablet and a note under his arm. "Good morning, nephew," Owen said, taking a seat at the table without waiting for an invitation. "I apologize for interrupting your morning, but we have a pressing matter of state to discuss.""Make it brief, Owen." Lucien didn't even lift his eyes from his tablet."The Annual Alpha Summit is in two weeks," Owen stated, laying his tablet and note on the dinner table

Leah's POV Lucien growled, making every guard, every elder, and every high-ranking member of the attending packs freeze in place but ​Julian didn't flinch; instead he slowly shifted, pulling me slightly behind his eyes as he locked gaze with the Alpha King.​"So," Julian said, "you're the King who kidnapped her.” He eyed Lucien, “I'm here now.” He turned to me and his thumb brushed lightly against my shit as if to reassure me. He was holding his ground against Lucien?"I said," Lucien growled, stepping closer to us, "take your hands off her."With every step Lucien took, the guards around us subtly shifted back, clearing the way. The pitch-black in Lucien's eyes had swallowed his irises entirely. Was his wolf trying to surface again? That isn't good. His glare was fixed entirely on Julian's hands, which he had refused to take off my body.I knew what Lucien was capable of… I had seen the casual and effortless violence he commanded, and the last thing I wanted was for Julian to end up
