Alpha King’s pregnant Ex-Luna

He scowled, the deep lines of his forehead etching further into his skin. “Did you forget your promise to me?”

A sudden realization flashed across Nelly’s mind, and she grimaced. “Sorry, it completely slipped my mind. If it’s not urgent, can we reschedule?”

“I’m already outside your house!” Alpha Kilian’s voice growled through the phone.

Nelly’s eyes widened in panic. “I’m not at home.”

“Then, where are you?” he demanded.

“I’m at the Grecia Hotel.”

“Stay there. I’ll be there in twenty minutes!” With that, the call abruptly ended.

Nelly stared at her phone, her brow furrowing slightly.

As Spencer carefully placed acupuncture needles in her hand, his gaze flickered towards her. “Was that a man?”

Nelly nodded absentmindedly, not bothering to lift her head. Her attention was fixated on her phone. For the past few days, Alpha Zachary had been calling and texting her relentlessly. She had only glanced at them briefly before dismissing them.

“The same man who called the other day?” Spencer asked, already certain of the answer.

Finally looking at him, Nelly put her phone aside and confirmed, “Yes.”

“He’s courting you!” Spencer concluded, his eyes gleaming with curiosity. Learning that a man dared to pursue someone as cold as Nelly intrigued him. He couldn’t help but wonder who this audacious suitor could be.

Nelly was known for her indifference and lack of femininity. She was denser than most men, often oblivious to advances directed her way. For instance, if someone were to extend their hand for a dance at a club, she would simply hand them a glass of alcohol instead.

But despite her shortcomings, her flawless beauty was undeniable.

Yet courting her required determination and acceptance.

Spencer couldn’t help but be curious. Who could be so bold?

When Nelly remained silent, Spencer inched closer to her, his face itching for gossip. “What kind of man is he? How did he find the courage to court you?”

“He’s not courting me!” she rebutted bluntly.

“He’s coming here! How can you say he’s not?” Spencer shot back, shaking his head at her cluelessness. “Nelly, hate to break it to you, but even if a man were to kneel before you, you’d think he’s performing a curtsy instead of proposing.”

Nelly fell into silence.

“Stop being clueless!” Spencer remarked, exasperated, but she stayed quiet.

However, Spencer couldn’t think of anyone worthy of Nelly, and he narrowed his eyes, questioning, “Could he be a pretty boy?”

As the possibility swirled in his mind, he leaned towards it, believing it to be true. “Nelly, don’t get lost in infatuation. He either wants your body or your money. You can have your fun, but don’t get serious with a pretty boy!”

The corner of Nelly’s lips curled into a faint smile. Pretty boy?

Alpha Kilian’s face flashed in her mind. Though fair and handsome, he exuded a manly aura that defied the label “pretty boy.”

Spencer tried to caution her against falling too deeply, but it seemed unnecessary.

“Why are you smiling? I told you to find a man to balance your hormones. I’m afraid your hormonal imbalance will ruin your romantic adventures,” Spencer frantically advised.

Nelly looked at him and replied confidently, “Why don’t you meet him and find out for yourself?”

“Sure! As long as you allow it, I’ll keep my eyes wide open and do my best to ascertain what kind of man he is,” Spencer agreed eagerly.

Nelly arched an eyebrow but remained silent.

After finishing the acupuncture treatment, Spencer put away his tools and studied her with curious eyes. “Does he know who you are?”

She shook her head.

Satisfied, Spencer nodded. “That’s a relief.”Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org

Understanding his unspoken concerns, Nelly turned to him. “Don’t worry. Whatever you’re thinking isn’t going to happen.”

Nelly seemed resolute, and Spencer could only hope for the best.

Twenty minutes later, Alpha Kilian parked his car in front of the Grecia Hotel.

Just as he was about to dial Nelly’s number, he saw her stepping out of the hotel with another man.

The familiarity and ease between them spoke of a long-standing friendship.

Alpha Kilian’s gaze narrowed as he took in the scene before him.

Without a second thought, he pocketed his phone and walked directly towards Nelly.

“Nelly,” he said lightly, and stood before her.

She nodded in acknowledgement.

Then, a thought crossed her mind, and she turned to him, saying, “Let me introduce you two. This is my friend, Spencer. Spencer, this is Alpha Kilian.”

A simple introduction was made.

The moment Alpha Kilian saw Spencer, the tension in his eyes grew. There was an indescribable intensity in his gaze.

Spencer stared back, momentarily lost for words.

Eventually, Alpha Kilian regained his composure and extended his hand. “Hello.”

Spencer stared at the outstretched hand for a beat, before gathering himself and accepting the gesture. “Hello to you too.”

Alpha Kilian quickly withdrew his hand and turned his attention back to Nelly. “Did you come out like this?”

Nelly countered, her tone defiant, “What did you expect?”

Frowning, Alpha Kilian glanced at the time. “We can still make it. Let’s go.” Taking Nelly’s hand casually, he began walking away.

“Where are we going?” she asked, her curiosity piqued.

“You’ll find out when we get there,” Alpha Kilian replied, his voice tinged with authority. He glanced at Spencer. “Is your friend coming along?”

Nelly also looked at Spencer, waiting for his response.

“I-It’s fine! Please proceed!” Spencer stammered nervously.

“In that case, let’s go,” Alpha Kilian declared firmly.

With that, he held Nelly’s hand and led her away.
