Another Chance for the Luna Queen by Aurora Starling

Chapter 0162

Ella POV

Alexander’s family home was nothing like what I had imagined. His apartment was so sleek and high–end that I had expected his family residence to be a sprawling modern mansion equipped with the latest technology.

Instead, it was an old manor house–updated, yes–but still radiating a timeless, antiquated charm. The preserved details hinted at a deliberate effort to maintain the family’s ancestral legacy. The solid oak floors, antique furniture, and subtle touches of history spoke volumes.

As we stepped inside, I couldn’t help but let my eyes wander, taking in the craftsmanship of the space. A short, middle–aged woman opened the door for us and immediately stepped aside, bowing reverently.

“Welcome home, Alpha Black,” she said politely.

“There’s no need to be so formal, Hazel,” Alexander replied kindly, a hint of fondness in his tone. He turned to me with a smile. “Ella, this is Hazel. She’s the head maid, though really, she runs the household and has for quite some time.”

“It’s nice to meet you, Hazel,” I said, returning her polite smile. “I’m Ella-”

“Ella Rowanwood,” she interrupted, her tone warming with excitement. “The pleasure is mine! I was beginning to wonder when we might have the honor of your presence.

Alexander sighed lightly. “I know, I took my time. I wanted to be certain of things.”

“And yet,” Hazel said, a playful reprimand lacing her words, “it is customary to introduce your girlfrier mother before proposing.”

Alexander smiled at her fondly, unbothered by the scolding “Thank you for the reminder,” he said with amusement. “Is Mother in?”
