The Luna Choosing Game by Jane Above Story novel Chapter 401

Chapter 0401 

My body moved on its own. Suddenly, I sprung into full action, grabbing Nicholas and pulling him closer. I put my mouth straight on his neck and started sucking in a mark. I didn’t know where her scent was but I had to remove it 

now

Piper, ahNicholas moaned. His fingers clenched where they sat at my waist

When my mark was red enough, I placed another and another. All along the column of his neck

Then I inhaled. Shit. That damned scent was still there

I felt wild, like I was losing myself. A growl sounded from the back of my throat

Nicholas finally seemed to notice. He removed his grip from my waist, to grip my hands instead. He pressed them down into the mat, then used that leverage to push himself upright, out of range of my eager mouth

My growl was deeper, angrier. I needed to get my scent on him. I was desperate for it

He still smelled like her

Piper, stop fighting me.” He was using his Alpha voice again. It was deep and low and shivered through me. I stilled at once. Good.The praise felt even better. He noticed that too. Good girl.” 

A soft whimper escaped the back of my throat

Piper, keep being a good girl for me and tell me what is going on.” 

I licked my lips and tried to focus my thoughts. I still felt wild and scattered, but my Alpha mate was asking me a question and I could answer it

You smell like herI said. I didn’t recognize my own voice, it was so rough

Nicholas blinked at me. What? Who?” 

Bridget,I spit out the name. You are carrying her scent

I am? Oh. She hugged me this morning.” 

My growl became more prominent

” 

You spend so much time with her, that she has begun to scent you.” 

It’s not like that,Nicholas said, though he seemed less sure now than he had

moment ago. Perhaps he was remembering an errant hug, or a stray touch that lingered too long at his wrist or throat

She means to claim you” 

You’ve got the wrong idea,Nicholas said. His

firmer now. He looked

me straight in my eyes, as if asking that I believe him. I there. Bridget and I are just friends.” 

I swallowed down my rising jealous enough to speak. You have to admit that you would make a good match.Tears rose in my eyes. I hated these new emotions, how strong they were, and how difficult they were to control

I don’t have to admit anything,he said

He leaned down and pressed his lips to the tears that shed from my eyes. Kiss after kiss. Tear after tear

I’ve been neglecting you,he said

NoIt felt so damned needy to suggest otherwise. Even if it was the truth

“Be honest with me,he said

I sniffled. I miss you.” 

He kissed my lips then, a chaste little thing. I’m so sorry, Piper. Please believe me when I tell you that you are the one I want the most.

The most. God, that felt good to hear. I wanted to be the one he wanted most, but in the wake of that comfort and good feeling, came a wash of fresh sadness. I might have been the one Nicholas wanted the most, but we’d still never be together

In the end, Bridget had the best chance at becoming Nicholas’s Luna. The royal family likely knew that. I wondered if her appearance was truly such a last minute stratagem and not something they had planned from the start

Maybe this entire competition was a sham to make sure that Nicholas ended up with the person they really wanted

Piper. Don’t be sad.” 

Kiss me, Nick,I said. Kiss me like tomorrow will never come and we can stay just like this forever.” 

I can do you one better,he said and lowered his lips down to my neck. He placed his lips to my throat and clasped them over the skin at my throat. Then he sucked

My whole body shivered. I bucked up, into him

As he pulled back, he licked at the angry mark he made, easing the pain

Let me scent you,he said, like he needed permission

Didn’t he know I had always been his? Ever since the Academy? Maybe even long before I met him

Please,” I said

He squeezed my wrists. Keep your hands here.” 

I nodded

Then he reached down, grabbed the hem of his shirt, and yanked it clean over his head. His chiseled chest was glistening with sweat. My mouth watered at the sight

He tossed the shirt aside, then looked down at mine. He plucked at my tank top

I’m going to take this off of you. I want your hands right back where they were once it’s gone, got it?” 

I nodded

He gripped the sides of my shirt and slowly, gently, brought it up over my head. I leaned upwards to help him remove it. When it was gone, I laid right back down and returned my hands where they had been

He tossed the shirt to the side

He smiled devilishly as he slowly lowered himself back down to cover me. I was sweaty too. Our scents mixed pleasantly together, blending. I hummed in delight

He lowered his lips to my neck again. I don’t want to smell like anyone else but you.” 

A growl erupted from the back of my throat, low and pleasant

His chest was hard against my curves, but my sports bra was still between us. I squirmed a little. I want this gone” 

Your bra?”
