Alpha’s Rue: His Shunned Luna (Athena Enchanted) novel Chapter 183

Chapter 183

“No, that was a dream for me too, and it was more than just sex, you trusted me, you gave me all your firsts, and after that night, I knew I’d never go back to the lines I didn’t cross.” He says, it’s the most honesty I’ve felt from him in a while.

Seeing our relationship from his perspective is fueling a fire I considered dead. “Back then, the thought of you finding your mate was the scariest thing to me, I knew I couldn’t ask you to reject him when the time did come.”

“Stop it, you’re making me blush.”

“I love it when you blush,” he hums, taking my hand and kissing it. “I love it when you do everything except get very angry with me.”

“Hmm, how about you don’t make me angry then?”

“I’ll try,” he smiles. “By the way, there’s something I’ve been meaning to tell you, but I couldn’t find

“What is it?”

“Do you remember Jaxon, Danielle’s brother?”

“Yes,” I nod. Kind of hard to forget him, he talks and stares an awful lot.

you earlier.”

“Well last night, the idiot was attacked by a wild bear, and I was thinking of visiting him.” He says, “He says he wasn’t badly hurt, but Maddox, Rowan, Danielle and I think to make sure because it’s Jaxon.” I nod. From what I know about Alpha Jaxon, this bear thing sounds on brand. If anything, he must have attacked the bear first. ” Would you like to join us? It’ll only be for five days at most. I’m yet to purchase the plane tickets.”

“No, it’s fine. You go,” I smile. Everyone he mentioned has a bond with Alpha Jaxon, and I don’t.

“Are you sure? I don’t want to leave you alone.”

“I’m not alone,” I smile. “This is a houseful of people, and in the same way, I don’t want to leave my Noah alone.”

He nods, “She can come with us.”

“It’s okay, King.” I shake my head, I don’t know why he feels so guilty about leaving me behind, but I don’t think I should join them. “And besides, your Mom invited me to a gala three nights from now, I’d hate to miss it. I’m her plus one.” I say with a smile, not knowing whether I’ll go with Luna Estelle or not.

Kingston raises an eyebrow, “Are you sure?”

“Yes, five days isn’t a long time. You’ll be back, won’t you?”

“Of course, but I’m going to miss you,” he says, pulling me into his arms. “I don’t want to leave you, baby.”

“I’ll be fine, check on your friend. I’ll still be here, and if I get lonely, I’ll visit my other husband, he’ll cheer me up.”

He growls, “Don’t joke like that.”

“He’s six,” I say with a laugh. Watching Kingston get worked up over Calen was very amusing.

“He’s cunning, the boy has always had it out for me, im telling you, Aeliana.” He says, very serious about his beef with Calen which is in fact very real and harmless. “This just happened to be a golden opportunity in his lap.”

“He’s adorable,” I swoon. I have spent time with a lot of children, but Calen has a special place in my heart, he

just reminds me how beautiful a childhood can be.

“I’m going to miss you.”

“Me too, but you’ll be back right.”

“Always, I’ll always come home to you.” Be kisses the top of my head. “I really didn’t plan this trip but now I’ll have two, soon after I return there’s another.”

I can’t help but laugh at the irritation in his voice. “You wanted this life,” I remind him. For as long as I can remember, he’s dreamed of this day, but he doesn’t appear thrilled all the time.

“And I love it, but it wouldn’t hurt if I could spend more time with you.” he sighs, holding me tighter. “Promise to tell me if you feel neglected?”

I nod against his chest. “I won’t, but yes, I’ll tell you.”

“One more promise…”

“Oh goodness, so needy,” I tease. “What shall I promise?”

“Don’t get into fights, I’m begging you, Aeliana, don’t fight Audrey.”

That ruins everything.

I scoot away from him, I don’t know what it is that Audrey did to him, but it keeps her on his mind at all times. Even now when I’m the one he holds, it’s her he thinks of. “So you just assume I would start a fight with her?”

“No,” he blurts out, his voice panicked. “But I can’t guarantee she won’t bait you into it. Like today, I’m sure she had something to do with Gemma and Rita sparring with you. Those two do whatever she says, and she lets them do that to you.”
