The Alpha’s Obsession with his Ex-Contract Luna by Glorious Eagle novel Chapter 96

Chapter 199 

CAMILLA’S PO.V 

The room was beautiful to say the least and the bed was massive but I took note of a large chaise lounge by the corner. It seemed like a good place to sleep. I was sure I could get my hands on some extra blankets if it proved to be uncomfortable. Ryker led me towards a large wardrobe and I stared blankly at the clothes in there

I don’t know the last thing about royal fashion,” I began slowly. Do you think Christine can help me or something?” 

Christine is dealing with the elders right now. I don’t know if your wall is up but they have been mind linking me nonstop,I cursed. “I can help you if you want. I think I know enough to be able to pick a decent outfit.” 

Will you help me put it on as well?my cheeks heated as I asked those words. It was clear he had seen me n*ked before. We had two children but that didn’t mean I wasn’t uncomfortable and apprehensive at the idea

I can direct you on what to do. You’ll only need my help for the corset.” 

That seemed like a better idea and as much as I hated to admit it, I loved how considerate he was being. He didn’t have to do all of this for me but he chose to and I found that to be such a beautiful thing to do

It took us almost half an hour to get me dressed but just like he predicted, I needed his help with the corset. My cheeks were flaming as I made my way over to him but he looked completely unfazed. His eyes never moved lower than where they were meant to and he was careful as he pulled on the ropes of my dress

Tell me if it is too tight,” his voice was huskier than usual and it was directly by my ear. I hated the way my b*dy reacted to it and I tried to ignore it but it was almost as if he already knew because he cursed loudly. Camilla, I-” 

His words were cut off by the door slamming open and a little girl rushed in. It was like looking at a younger version of myself- excluding the eyes, she had Ryker’s eyes. Before I could process what was happening, she rushed over to me and threw her arms around my legs. I stilled for a split second not knowing what to do until I heard her sniffling

I felt my wolf stir and it was like something in me was awoken. I lifted her into my arms and it proved to be the right thing to do because she wrapped herself around me like a small monkey. I felt wetness on my shoulder as she sobbed into me

Where did you go?she asked but I couldn’t form the words necessary to give her a response. I asked you to come back every day and you didn’t.” 

I’m sorry,I whispered. I assumed this was Audrey and as much as I didn’t remember her, my heart still broke for her. There was no denying that she was mine and just knowing that

back.” 

She sniffled and pulled back as if to gauge my expression and whatever she found there must have been good enough because she smiled. She turned to face Ryker. You brought her back, daddy.” 

I felt Ryker smile at her. I did, but you need to give your mùm some time to rest, okay? She was hurt and she needs to get better.” Audrey pouted but she listened to her father and untangled herself from me. I watched her exit the same way she came and once she was gone, Ryker spoke. I am sorry about that. I expected her to come find you but not this soon.” 

I cleared my throat trying to get rid of the emotion lodged deep inside. It’s fine, can you just finish with my dress.” 

His hands moved quickly as he tied it up neatly. It felt snug but not tight and as much as I wanted it to feel right, it didn’t. It felt uncomfortable and different from what I was used to. It would take some getting used to

I know I have to see everyone,” I began slowly. But I cannot risk looking stupid. I reckon we have a little time before everyone comes looking for us. I would appreciate it if you told me everything I needed to know.” 

That’s six years worth of knowledge,he reminded me and I nodded

We have less than half an hour to cover it all. I don’t want to dump too much information on you. It might overwhel 

you.” 

I would rather be overwhelmed with information than go out there and risk looking like

fool.” 

Why don’t 

ou just tell everyone that you don’t remember?he asked and I scoffed

I might remember much but I know enough to know that no one wants a ruler who doesn’t even know who she is. No one can know about this. That is my decision.I noticed that the corner of his lips was tilted up in some sort of smile so I crossed my arms over my chest. What is it? Did I say something wrong?” 

No, you just spoke like a Queen,” he said simply. You might not remember, Camilla, but 

your 

mind does. Your memories will return in no time but if you want me to tell you everything, then so be it.” 

We spent the next half hour discussing everything and by the time he was done explaining everything, I just sat there stunned. I couldn’t believe that I had a life that was that exciting. He glossed over most of the details and I had the sinking feeling that he was hiding something from me but it all seemed unbelievable

I did all those things?I asked and he nodded. How?” 

He smiled sardonically. I can see that your self depreciating hasn’t stopped even with the

memory loss,” 

It just- I’m just surprised is all.” 

You are an amazing queen and you are powerful, Camilla. You were able to do those things simply because you had the power to.” 

I opened my mouth to speak but was cut off by a knock on the door. It creaked open to reveal Christine and when she looked between Ryker and I, I leaped to my feet. I wasn’t sure why I did that especially when I knew we weren’t doing anything untowardly but it still felt like being caught by a parent or a disapproving older sister

The elders want to see you,she said with her eyes fixed on me. I can try to dissuade them but they are persistent.” 

It’s alright, I’ll see them.” 

She didn’t look convinced and she looked to Ryker for confirmation. I tried to pretend that it didn’t affect me

If she wants to see them then she will. It is her choice,I was shocked at those words and turned to Ryker but for once, his eyes were not on me, they were on Christine. Don’t coddle her. I know you want to protect her but I believe that she has proven time again that she can protect herself.” 

Fine,Christine wasn’t happy about it at all but there was nothing that she could do. They’re in the council room.” 

Despite my earlier bravado, I was terrified to see the elders. From what Ryker had told me about them, they were not the nicest people. The only one who seemed decent was Caius but that only happened in private

Are you ready?Ryker asked as I stood in front of the council door and I nodded. I feared that if I were to say any words, they would die on my throat

He gave me one last lingering look before pushing the door open and I was greeted with arguing. The elders went silent as soon as they saw us and all their mouths fell open. I looked at their faces trying to figure out who Caius was when Ryker leaned down to whisper

He is at the far left,” I saw him immediately and whispered a thank you back to him. He straightened and turned to the elders. Are you done arguing or can we come in?” 

There was some murmuring but no one said a word. I walked on shaky legs towards the chair at the head of the table and slowly sat down. I had barely sat when questions started being thrown at me. I hadn’t been with then for an hour and I was already sporting a headache

Can you ask your questions one at a time?I asked louder than intended as I pressed my fingers to my temple. You are giving me a headache.” 

Everyone blinked and no one spoke until Caius cleared his throat. We were all just
