The sickened luna’s last chance

Chapter 74

Ella

Alexander’s arms were warm and secure around me, his heartbeat steady beneath my ear. The calm rhythm

of it chased away the fear, the doubt… everything outside that room.

“How did you know where to find me?”

“Lilith managed to get a picture of the car,” he replied. “I recognized it immediately. It was Sophia’s.”

I jerked my head up to look at him, making it spin. “Did Sophia hire someone to kidnap me?”

As soon as I blurted out those words, I feared I’d overstepped. Alexander still adored Sophia above all else-

he wouldn’t take kindly to such an accusation. Surely he would say that Sophia hadn’t had anything to do

with it. Perhaps her car had been stolen.

“I don’t know,” he replied. “But I’m going to find out. And if that were the case, then I assure you, she’ll be

punished.”

I blinked in surprise. I hadn’t expected him to even entertain my statement, let alone promise that he would

punish her.

For a moment, I just searched his face in the moonlight streaming through the window. There was something fierce in his green eyes, something possessive that made my heart flutter.

“Thank you,” I breathed, leaning up to press a soft kiss to his cheek. “Thank you for saving me.”

But just as my lips touched his skin, Alexander turned his head. Our mouths met in the middle, and suddenly we were kissing.

It wasn’t like our fake kisses for the cameras. His lips were too warm and soft against mine to be performative, and here, with no one to watch us, it couldn’t possibly be for anyone except us.

This was real.

And, Goddess, how badly I wanted this,

In that moment, a force shot through me that wanted nothing other than to hold onto this moment with all my might and never let go.

And so I kissed him back without thinking, my hands fisting in the fabric of his shirt. When his tongue traced the seam of my lips, I opened for him without hesitation. The taste of him flooded my senses–bourbon and

woodwire smoke.

My mate. My husband.
