Alpha King’s pregnant Ex-Luna

188



As the unexpected confession hung in the air, a whirlwind of inexplicable emotions flickered through Nelly’s eyes, her werewolf nature threatening to overflow. Yet, she remained silent, her fangs hidden behind her clenched jaw.

Alpha Kilian, the powerful alpha, looked upon her with a knowing smile, his eyes gleaming with the secrets he held. “Let us depart,” he spoke, his voice calm and commanding. He reached out, grasping her delicate hand and gently guiding it to rest on his arm, a subtle display of their connection.

But as Alpha Kilian held her hand, his alpha senses heightened, detecting the faintest trace of pain. His brows furrowed, concern etched across his face. His grip tightened, unintentionally revealing the bruises that marred her delicate wrist.

Inside the confines of the car, Alpha Kilian observed Nelly, his dominant gaze penetrating her very soul. The words spilled from his lips, a low rumble of curiosity. “Is that friend of yours a doctor?”

Caught off guard, Nelly turned to face him, their eyes locking, their supernatural energies colliding. Surprise danced across her features as she questioned, “How did you know? Do you know him?”

Alpha Kilian’s lips pursed, a shadow of worry crossing his expression. His dark eyes fixated on her injured wrist, the alpha within him yearning to protect. “What happened to your wrist?” he asked, his voice tinged with a mix of curiosity and concern.

Lowering her gaze, Nelly’s eyes fixated on her own wrist shrouded in darkness. The bruises were hidden within the confines of the car. Alpha Kilian must have already seen them. She clenched her jaw, her determination shining through. “It is nothing but an old injury,” she responded, her tone laced with defiance.

Alpha Kilian’s eyebrows shot up, his alpha instincts stirring restlessly. “Each time you visit Grecia Hotel, is it to seek treatment from him?” His questioning gaze bore into her, demanding answers.

Recalling their last encounter at Grecia Hotel, where Nelly appeared unwell, Alpha Kilian’s mind churned. In his unintentional display of dominance, he had caused her harm. At that moment, he believed it was Gary, the enigma of a man, who had injured her. And now, the bruises on her wrist brought forth a different truth. Putting two and two together, he couldn’t help but become determined to protect her.

Without denying the truth, Nelly simply nodded, a flicker of trust shining in her eyes. “Yes,” she admitted.

Alpha Kilian’s frown deepened. “Why didn’t you tell me? I could have recommended a better doctor.”

Her lips curled into a knowing smile, a touch of sarcasm lacing her voice. “He knows everything about my injuries. If he cannot help, then no one can. He is the best doctor for this!” Her gaze met his once more, unyielding and challenging.

Jealousy flashed within Alpha Kilian, his possessiveness simmering just beneath the surface. He begrudgingly asked, “Why do you trust him so much?” His eyes bore into hers, seeking answers.

Detecting the jealousy in his tone, Nelly hesitated, uncertainty clouding her expression. She delicately chose her words, wary of the alpha’s reaction. “Of course. He is my friend, so I do trust him,” she replied hesitantly.

Shooting her a skeptical look, Alpha Kilian’s eyes narrowed, his tone fraught with possessiveness. “Just a friend?”

Caught in his gaze, Nelly’s eyes sparkled with defiance and she couldn’t resist returning the challenge. “Yeah. Who else do you think he is to me?” Her words dripped with confidence, her defiance only enhancing her allure.

A hint of realization dawned upon Alpha Kilian, breaking through the shroud of jealousy. Deep down, he understood Nelly’s nature, her tendency to see the world in extremes. His heart eased, and a small smile danced across his lips.

He had observed Nelly and Spencer closely when they were together. Though their bond appeared strong, Alpha Kilian, as an alpha, could discern the truth. The way Spencer looked at Nelly lacked the underlying desire and possessiveness that Alpha Kilian felt himself. And when Alpha Kilian had taken Nelly’s hand, her reaction was far from anger.

Hearing Nelly’s explanation, Alpha Kilian’s voice softened, the dominance and jealousy dissipating. “From now on, I shall follow your example, Nelly. I too will have only one type of friend, and I will heed your words.”

Nelly fell silent as she took in his words. In his charming face and deep eyes, she found herself at loss for words.

Half an hour later, the car pulled up to Hotel Manor. The grandeur of the place was evident as they drove their vehicle, a symbol of their power, straight into the heart of the establishment.

As the car came to a stop, a staff member promptly opened their doors. Alpha Kilian gracefully exited and moved to Nelly’s side, offering his hand as a gentleman would. She hesitated, her werewolf instincts mingling with her human instincts. Dressed in a gown and high heels, she knew navigating the uneven ground would be a challenge. Eventually, she relented, placing her hand in his.

As Nelly stepped out of the car, her delicate balance faltered, her high heels threatening to betray her. But Alpha Kilian held her firmly, his arms wrapping around her protectively. She pressed against him, her fragrant scent filling the air, stoking the fire within him.

Looking down at the woman in his arms, Alpha Kilian’s gaze burned with passion, his alpha instincts surging forth.

In that moment, Fabian came running from inside, his words halted when he caught sight of their intimate embrace. Quickly recovering, he turned away, pretending to see nothing.

Nelly noticed Fabian’s reaction and nudged Alpha Kilian, urging him to release her. “I am fine now, thank you,” she murmured.

Alpha Kilian’s lips curled into a smile as he regarded her. “Be careful, Nelly. The ground is treacherous,” he warned, his voice tinged with worry.

With a nod, Nelly acknowledged his concern. “Okay.”

Alpha Kilian turned to address Fabian, a hint of irritation in his voice. “What is it?”

Fabian quickly relayed the urgency of the situation. “Mr. Morris, everyone is almost gathered, but several shareholders insist on meeting with you. If you do not attend, we cannot proceed with the following events.”

Alpha Kilian’s frown deepened. “Very well.”

He then turned to Nelly, his voice laced with concern. “Must I leave you here alone, or would you prefer to accompany me?”Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

Nelly shook her head, a flicker of independence shining in her eyes. “No, I will take a walk by myself. You go ahead.”

After a moment’s consideration, Alpha Kilian nodded in agreement. “Alright, then. Fabian will escort you inside. Once I have finished, I will come find you.”

Nelly nodded and watched as Alpha Kilian disappeared from sight. She turned to face Fabian, ready to be led inside.

But as Fabian looked upon her, his eyes widened in astonishment. Her beauty in that moment was unparalleled, as if she had stepped out of a fairytale. The thought crossed his mind, was Alpha Kilian attempting to prove a point to the Lucas family? Was he not merely showing off?

Caught off guard by his stare, Nelly furrowed her brows, her frustration clear. “What’s wrong with you? Have you seen a ghost?”

Shaking off his thoughts, Fabian quickly composed himself and let out a laugh. “Oh, Ms. Jackson, you have quite the sense of humor! If you are a ghost, then what are the people waiting inside for?”

Curious, Nelly pressed further. “Why were you daydreaming instead of leading the way?”

“I couldn’t help but think that you might be the most stunning woman here tonight!” Fabian exclaimed, a warm smile gracing his face. “Now, let us proceed. Would you like a grand entrance or a discreet one?”

With a smirk, Nelly responded, “I believe discreet would suit me just fine.”

As they made their way inside Hotel Manor, the night before them unfolded, bringing with it secrets and untold desires.
