The Alpha Wants Me Back? Denied.
On the tenth year of being bonded to my mate, Alpha Lucian Blackwood finally returns to my side.
He no longer calls out his puphood sweetheart, Sadie Marrock's name in his sleep.
He no longer forces me to shift into my wolf form and go hunting right after my labor just because Sadie wants to drink deer blood.
Even my son, Conan Blackwood, who's always disliked me, begins to kiss up to me by nuzzling against my leg.
The entire pack is flying with rumors of the Alpha finally realizing what he actually wants. They think I'll be the happiest Luna ever.
I thought I'd be happy as well. That is, until Lucian rejects Sadie's call for help and chooses to stay at home with me. After that, he pins me down and tries to kiss me on my lips.
This is the first time in ten years Lucian wants to be intimate with me, but I instinctively tilt my head and avoid his kiss. Then, I push him away coldly.
All traces of happiness vanish instantly. Angered by my behavior, Lucian roars, "Weren't you jealous of Sadie over the past ten years because of how well I treated her? Well, I'm only good to you now! What more do you want from me?"
