The Alpha's Regret Return Of The Betrayed Luna (Addison) novel Chapter 518

Chapter 518: Chapter 518 Self Control

The slow drag of his teeth, the wet glide of his tongue, and the relentless fullness between her legs overwhelmed her senses all at once, making her body tremble as pleasure and tension coiled tightly in her core.

The question sounded gentle.

But his body, his gaze, and the way he held her said something far more primal, as though he had already decided and was merely voicing the instinct burning inside him while he continued to move with raw, possessive intent.

Addison could clearly feel it, the gradual swelling of his cock inside her, the head growing thicker and fuller with each passing second, pressing heavily against her inner walls as if anchoring itself deep within her. The sensation was impossible to ignore, overwhelming in both fullness and heat, making her body tremble as she realized what he was instinctively trying to do.

It felt like he was trying to root himself inside her completely, as though once he knotted and spilled everything deep within her, there would be no escape, only the raw, possessive act of filling her to ensure nothing was wasted.

Yet, unlike the first time she had experienced Zion knotting inside her, the panic she expected never came.

Instead, there was a strange, quiet acceptance blooming in her chest.

Perhaps it was because it was Levi.

Because she trusted him.

Because she loved him.

Because he was now her mate.

Or perhaps it was the mate bond itself, amplifying her emotions, softening her resistance and making her more receptive to him in ways she couldn’t fully rationalize. The overwhelming pleasure, the intimacy, and the instinctual pull between them dulled the instinct to resist.

Even the thought of being knotted and possibly carrying his pup didn’t trigger the same fear it once did. Her body and heart seemed far less inclined to reject him, almost as if some part of her was instinctively accepting him completely.

While Addison was slowly, subconsciously yielding to the sensation and the inevitability of his swelling knot, Levi abruptly stiffened.

For a fleeting moment, it was as if he snapped out of a fevered dream.

The golden flecks in his eyes flickered and faded as his rational mind forcefully pushed his wolf back into submission. The primal haze clouding his thoughts receded, replaced by sharp awareness.

The swelling of his cock inside her halted.

A strained groan tore from his throat, his jaw tightening as his sanity fully resurfaced. Only then did the weight of the situation crash into him.

This was not the right time.

Not for Addison.

Not for her future.

Not for the path she was meant to walk.

If she became pregnant now, it would complicate everything: her ambitions, her position, and the dangerous political landscape surrounding her. Worse, their enemies would undoubtedly exploit it as a weakness, turning her vulnerability into a target and placing her in even greater danger.

And that was something Levi absolutely refused to allow.

No matter how strong his instincts screamed to claim and breed, the part of him that loved her, truly loved her, chose restraint instead, even as his body ached with the primal urge he had just forcibly suppressed.

So instead of surrendering to his selfish desire to claim her completely and make her the mother of his pup right then and there, Levi chose something far more difficult: her safety.

More than his instincts.

More than his craving to fill her and mark her as his.

He chose her future.

If the time ever came, he would ask her properly. He would wait until she was ready, until the situation around them was stable enough for her to carry his pup without danger looming over her every step. But now? Now was the worst possible time. Enemies were scheming in the shadows, threats closing in from every direction, and her path toward the throne was at its most fragile stage.

A pregnancy now would not be a blessing.
