Rejected Luna: Untamed Desire Of The Lycan Alpha

Chapter 292: Made Up

But at the same time, Killian was trying. He had pushed past that instinct, and he had stayed. Opened the vault behind which he locked himself up. He had exposed more of himself in front of her and, more importantly, he had admitted that he cared for her. It was something an alpha would hardly ever do.

She sighed heavily. "Yeah."
