Chapter 185

The night was long as they threw themselves on the throes of desire and lust. The heat lasted until the night ended and when the sun finally appeared on the horizon, Lilac was spent. She curled herself in a ball against his chest, sleeping like a baby, satisfied.

Meanwhile, Hunter couldn’t think straight. It was insane for him to do that with her in her current condition.

He was worried that he might hurt her or the baby, but when he saw her sleeping face and how contented she was, he could breathe a sigh of relief, because she was surely fine, if she could smile on her sleep.

“You scared me, love,” Hunter kissed the top of her head and hugged her tightly. Their body were sweaty and it was a little bit slippery, but the alpha wanted to devour this moment with her for a little bit longer.

He had an important meeting this morning, but he didn’t have enough sleep last night, still, he didn’t complain. He would love to have this sleepless night over and over again, but probably, he had to be careful with the intensity so they wouldn’t hurt their baby.

Hunter kissed Lilac again and squeezed her body gently. She let out this adorable sigh, but still sleeping.

In the end, after the sun was up and the sky turned so bright, Hunter let go of his mate’s body and got up, he went to the bathroom to clean himself and then wrung wet towel to clean Lilac’s body up.

Their clothes were on the floor and Lilac was mostly naked, thus it was easy for Hunter to clean her up, but even when his need was fulfilled already, it was still hard to see her in such vulnerable state, she was very tempting.

“You will be the death of me, love,” Hunter said with a little smile on the corner of his lips, as he wiped her body gently.

After he took care of his mate and put a comfortable dress for her, he went outside to have the last meeting before the attack.

The meeting lasted until afternoon and around that time, Lilac woke up because Raya shook her body.

“Lilac, you need to eat something, you have skipped your breakfast, you can’t skip your lunch too,” Raya said in coaxing voice, she kept shaking her body gently, until she opened her eyes. “Lilac, wake up.”

Raya scrunched her nose because this room was completely reek with the smell of their lovemaking and the

evidence was very obvious.

“Lilac! Wake up!” Raya raised her voice, which made herself startled. She immediately took a step back.

But, because of that too, Lilac finally opened her eyes, she looked around her groggily. “Did you just… yell at me?” She looked unsure, seemingly she was still not really conscious enough to tell whether she was dreaming or not about the yelling.

“I didn’t,” Raya said. She schooled her face and approached Lilac again. She sat down on the edge of the bed and looked at her closely. “You look slightly pale. Are you alright? Should I call a healer?”

Lilac frowned and waved her hand. “No need, I am just tired.”

Lilac didn’t see it, but Raya balled her fists under–her sleeves, as she smiled sweetly at her and reminded her that she had skipped her breakfast.

“I brought lamb meat for you, come here. Try this, but before that, you need to wash your face first.” Raya pointed her finger at the meal that she had brought with her.

Lilac narrowed her eyes, she was slightly dizzy, but probably because she was too hungry. With the reminder of Raya, her stomach started growling. Both of them could hear that.

“See? You will let your baby hungry if I didn’t wake you up,” Raya said, she smiled softly at her and then patted her shoulder. “Go and clean your face first before you ate.“ALTË

Lilac yawned and then got off the bed. Her head was still dizzy and she was very sleepy, her body was sore, but she was mostly feeling satisfied. The heat that happened to her last night was rather brutal, she was worried it was too much for her baby, probably she needed to see a healer?

Lilac would ask a healer to check on her later. She felt great, but it didn’t she would take the risk, if it came about her baby.

After that, Lilac ate her lunch, Raya ate with her too and both of them had a mundane talk about trivial things that happened around them.

“What else do you want?” Ruby asked luna Jasmine when she came to visit her, as she breastfed her baby.

“Don’t give me an attitude,” luna Jasmine growled at her.

Over these few weeks when luna Jasmine was not really active and succumbed into her misery because her son was in predicament from being hunted down by his own father and her mate betrayed her, yet she couldn’t find the woman that alpha Tony was having an affair with, Ruby started to build her influence within the pack.

She gathered people that she could trust, people who had the same sentiment like her, who didn’t like luna Jasmine, some of them even hated her, just like Aria.

This pitiful woman had been used twice by luna Jasmine, she even bore the punishment for her and even though she was Lilac’s best friend before, but after the second betrayal, Aria knew there was no chance for her to reconcile with Lilac anymore.

Ruby also knew about that and she got her to her side.

Right now, Ruby would use to be seen with her and helped her with Azel or anything that she needed, which irked luna Jasmine, because she saw this as a betrayal, since Aria used to be a close friend of Lilac.

“What are you going to talk with me?” Ruby asked straight to the point.

Luna Jasmine glared at her, but then shifted her hatred toward Aria. “Leave,” she said through her gritted teeth.

Aria might be loyal to Ruby now, but she was still scared of luna Jasmine, the aura the she carried was something else, you wouldn’t be able to ignore that.

“Yes, yes, luna…” Aria immediately went away from there. She didn’t want to get into trouble again, she didn’t think Ruby could handle luna Jasmine just yet.

“What do you want to talk about?” Ruby was not happy because Aria left just like that, she left with tail between her legs. What a useless thing….

“Now you dare to talk to me like this,” luna Jasmine said sharply. She looked a few years older now. She was no longer care much about her appearance. She looked a little bit skinny and her complexion was not really good. Grey hair started to appear and she became so bitter.

“Just tell me what else do you want? I have let you met with alpha Ramon. I have nothing to do with you. anymore,” Ruby said snarkily. She wanted her to leave this room. The sight of her was suffocating.

“I want you to find out who is the person, who has an affair with James,” luna Jasmine said, emphasizing every

word she said. “I want you to find out, who is that b*tch.”

Ruby raised her brows, she didn’t expect this request. “I thought you have asked around about this, but if you couldn’t find out, what about me? I don’t have enough resources like you have.”

The way Ruby acted was very natural, as if she was really didn’t remember anything.
