Chapter-95. Heartless emotions

[Raven]

"So, this is what you were trying to hide behind your ugly veil?" I strutted closer to her.

"I thought you had better things to do than to peep behind veils that aren't yours. After all, you have better people to be with, for example, your Luna candidate. What brings you to an omega's abode?" she said bitterly, standing near the door, suppressing her breathlessness.

"That doesn't answer my question." I cocked a brow.

She stared at me and then averted her eyes, taking a deep breath.

"Sorry to disappoint you, but I have no obligation to answer you. You no longer have that power over me," she said.

I smirked, standing just inches away from her. Tilting my head, I trailed the back of my fingers down the side of her face. Her body stiffened, but she held my gaze, refusing to break the glare lock.

I slid the collar of her shirt aside, revealing the pink bite marks and hickeys Ezra had left behind on her fair skin.

Grabbing her throat, I yanked her against myself.

"You might be a luna candidate now, little omega, but you are still my wife and it won't take long for me to remind you of all the power I have over you," I spoke against her lips.

My grip around her throat loosened, and I slid my fingers down her collarbone over her breasts.

'You touch a woman because when she is around, you just can't keep your hands to yourself.' Nyssa's words resonated between the distance of our breaths.

Xanthea grabbed my wrist with both her hands.

"True. You can still claim my body whenever you want, but that's it! That's all the power you have left. But I am more than just my body and there are parts of me you can't touch without my permission," she shot back, glancing at the fit-it-all. "Just like you are no longer allowed to touch my things as you like."

I smirked with a scoff, withdrawing my hand from her as I stepped back.

"Don't get cocky just because you are a luna candidate now."

She smiled bitterly, stepping closer to me.

"It's basic manners not to touch a lady's bag. But then again, I shouldn't expect manners from a man who doesn't know how to treat a child. How could you-" she snarled "-how dare you throw Lana like that? Her wings are injured; she can't fly. You could have hurt her-"

"And how is that any of my problems?" I said, clenching my jaws as I towered over her. "Lana can heal herself."

"She is a child! Just because she can, doesn't mean she should. Especially on the watch of an adult. You have no right to treat her like that. Apologize to her."

"You are on another level of shamelessness. Who the hell do you think you are to question my authority?" I growled.

"You said it yourself, alpha Raven. I am your wife. And I can question your authority, not because I am Ezra's Luna candidate, but because I have a soul pact with you and that means something. It makes me something. If my soul belongs to you, then a part of your soul is mine, too."
