Chapter 6 Aquamarine's POV My breathing hitched as my wolf stirred within me . I stared at Lycan Alexander as those words escaped his lips , and his eyes seemed to darken under the sunset . " You will give me that ." He said again , staring at me as he stopped walking , his arms tightening around me , holding me securely against his chest . I didn't know if it was an order or a threat . But it made me shudder in his touch . I felt a flush rise to my cheeks as I realized I was still in his arms , partially naked and dependent on him . I gripped the cloak tightly against my chest , trying to cover myself , but it wasn't doing much to calm my racing mind . I opened my mouth to speak , but what could I say ? I made that promise to Fiona out of anger , and now I was trapped . But what would I rather do ? There was no way I would let her put such accusations on me . wasn't barren . I hadn't even laid with any man before , so why should I be scared ? But his demand for an heir caught me off guard . Wanting a child from me , out of all the ladies he had at his disposal ? That was not something I had expected from him . I had heard that he had a reputation for having powerful she - wolves at his feet , vying for his attention . Strong Alpha's who gifted their daughters to him . I risked a glance at him , my heart pounding loudly in my chest . Maybe he just said that to put me on the edge . Surely he must see that I'm not actually ……. normal ? But his golden eyes seemed to stare past my soul as if daring me to back down on my promise . I looked away quickly , moistening my lips , and nodded frantically . " Y - yes " I stammered , trying to avoid his monstrous glare . As he walked , I bounced gently in his arms , feeling a bit dizzy from the motion and the whole event today . My father's torture , Clinton's betrayal and his rejection . But now , here I am in the arms of a new mate . I saw a carriage approaching , and I knew it was for Lycan Alexander . Its arrival seemed almost perfectly timed . There was no point asking where we were headed . It had to be his pack . Theriakon Pack . " Lycan Alexander , " someone suddenly called out . I looked over his shoulder to see that it was the same man who had given him the cloak that covered my partially naked body . He whispered something in Lycan Alexander's ear that I couldn't quite catch . Lycan Alexander grunted lowly . He looked at me , and then his eyes went to the sky . His nose twitched as he closed his eyes ; I stared up at him , confused . What was he doing ? The cold evening breeze blew and I shivered , sinking further into Lycan Alexander's arms . I used that opportunity to inhale his scent . It was still like before , no , it was even more intoxicating than before . " But my comfort was short - lived when I felt his gaze on me and I pulled back , frightened . Why did I allow my wolf to take control ? I tried my best to fight the urge to bury my head in his neck and sniff him . " Gather them here , " he ordered . I wondered what he wanted to speak to them about , but shortly after , the pack began to gather outside . I saw my family standing beside Alpha Felix , and on the ground beside them lay Clinton , sull bleeding and unattended , just as Lycan Alexander instructed . I was even beginning to wonder if he was really dead . 1/2 2/2 Chapter 61 The pack murmured among themselves , their faces pale with fear . I knew that they didn't have the resources to pay back the debt , not even in a year . Or was it more than that ? What exactly is the debt ? Money ? Resources ? Slaves ? The Moonstone pack wasn't poor , but Alpha Felix was a bit greedy , and I knew that Lycan Alexander was aware of that too . As Lycan Alexander turned to face the crowd , I felt his chest rise and fall with each breath , his warmth seeping into my skin . Then I remembered what he did to a whole pack last year . Would he do the same here ? Wipe the Moonstone pack away from the surface of the earth . But instead , he turned to me , " Call out a seamstress ," he ordered . I blinked . A seamstress ? I stared at him confused . What would he need one for ? Was that why he called all of them out ? Over a mere seamstress ? But I knew better than to ask him any questions . I looked over to the crowd , each one of the members cowered in fear , and some were seemed to be glaring at me . Then my eyes landed on her . even crying . My eyes met my father's , who still The best and only reliable seamstress in the pack , who would rather die than give me rags to wear . The seamstress who had thrown a needle at my feet . If Lycan Alexander wanted something , then she'd be the only one to make it . I pointed at her , and she let out a blood - curdling scream , her eyes wide with fear , as she begged for mercy . " Spare my life , please ! " she cried , shaking uncontrollably . " I'll do anything , just don't kill me ! " , But I didn't feel bad for her . " Shut up and get her proper clothes ! " Lycan Alexander barked at her . I looked down and gasped as I noticed the cloak I was wrapped in wasn't doing enough justice to cover me properly . No wonder he was staring at me those times . He was staring at my exposed breast and nipple . As the woman scrambled away , I tried to cover up , but the only way to do that was to lean into Alexander's hard frame with my chest . But there was no way I would bring myself to that , not with the way my nipples were hard . I was careful enough not to press further , but he had other plans . His arms tightened around my waist , pulling my body further into his , like I was about to slip away . I could finally feel his hard chest against my breast , and my body tensed as it felt my heart would soon explode from my chest . His chest was warm against mine , and I could feel his heartbeat steady and strong . And I was pretty sure he could feel and hear my heartbeat against his like an enraged drummer . As I tried to steady my free hand on his shoulder properly , I felt the cloak go lower , exposing more of my skin . Lycan Alexander adjusted the cloak on me , but I looked away instantly , my cheek flushing in embarrassment , What is happening to me ? Why was I behaving like this for Goddess ' sake ? I shouldn't feel attracted to him , I swallowed hard , and I took in deep breaths , trying to calm the butterflies in my belly that shouldn't be there . It's just the wolf bond . That's all , nothing special , nothing more . Suddenly , screams erupted from the crowd . He adjusted his hold on me , and warm liquid splashed over my bare back . I turned my head at me , Comment B G
