Alpha’s Rue: His Shunned Luna (Athena Enchanted) novel Chapter 173

Chapter 173

“I’m satisfied,” I swallow, my chest still heaving. Satisfied is an understatement. I might be growing addicted to

his touch.

He kisses me, his cock rocking against my thigh with every kiss. “Stay with me tonight,” I whisper against his lips, kissing him again. “Please?”

“Why don’t you just move into our bedroom?” He asks.

I pause.

I’ve not been inside his bedroom, I don’t have the desire to. That’s the room he spent every night with Audrey in, it’s the room she probably decorated in anticipation of the day that she became Luna. But I can’t tell him that, can’t tell him I’m not mature enough to ignore the past it holds, so I lie. “I like my bedroom.”

“You sure?” He coos. “Because I want you next to me every night, I sleep better when I can feel your heart against mine.”

“Then you sleep over,” I offer. “I’m not moving into your room, not yet.

“Alright.” he sighs, “I guess I’ll be camping here until you’re ready.”

My heart swells, “So you’ll stay tonight?”

“Yes, I just have a dinner meeting with my new Gamma’s, but after that…” he kisses my nose. “I’m all yours.”

“All mine?” I giggle. “I like the sound of that.”

“Beautiful,” he pinches my cheek.

I can’t help but roll my eyes at that. “Says the golden boy.”

“Teases the crybaby,” he counters.

“Hey, I’m not a crybaby anymore.”

His lips pull into a knowing smile, “I bet I can make you cry for my cock.”

“I bet not,” I shoot back. “You might have the fattest, most beautifully long, and possibly perfect huge dick I’ve ever seen, but crying for it?” I squint. “That’s a stretch, but I’ll beg if you ask nicely.”

“Later,” he kisses me. “I’ll shower and head out.”

I nod. “Okay.”

“Do you want to join me?”

“I’ll stay here for a bit,” I smile.

He gives me one more kiss before he gets up and walks away, blowing me a kiss from my bathroom door before he disappears behind it. “I love you,” Lumi murmurs, her words imitating Kingston earlier. “How cute.”

“Very,” I smile to myself, staring at the door.

“I’m happy he changed for you. This is healing you, Aeliana.” She tells me, “Why didn’t you say it back? Your love for him is the only sure thing we’ve ever known.”

“I’m scared, Lumi.” I swallow. “What if I wake up one day and I’m still yearning to be loved by him? What if this

is all in my head, and psychosis is tricking me?”

“You do not have psychosis,” she says. “They were wrong, and you’re wrong too. This is all in your head, Alpha Kingston loves you, and Remus does too.”

“Remus?” I frown, I haven’t had one encounter with Kingston’s wolf, he often pushes for dominance when I’m with him, but King sits him back.

“Don’t get mad, but when you and Kingston are asleep, we talk,” Lumi explains. “I often shield you when we do it during your waking hours, but he loves us very much. He’s longing to claim us, they both always are.” She swoons, “But Remus isn’t like Alpha Kingston”

“Why doesn’t he interact with me?”

“He does, every moment with Alpha Kingston is with him, you don’t notice, but there’s a moment he takes over, like when he asked you to touch yourself just now. That wasn’t just Alpha Kingston, it was both of them.” She explains, “I think you can stop being scared, Ellie. I’m not scared anymore, we’re loved.”

“What if-”

“Never,” she quietly says. “Our mate is proving himself, promises may have been broken before, but he kept every one he made us. You should consider letting him in,” she says. “Strengthen our bond in every aspect, only you can do that.”
