"His Luna" she whispers, her face void of emotions for she wasn't sure if it was a good thing or a bad thing anymore. The thought of being Luna sends old memories jumping into her mind causing her to remember Adam and what he had asked her in the woods.
"You want a Luna, right? Adam Hawthorn" she mumbled
The thought of being subjected to Adams luna sends shivers down her spine, her heart beats faster, and she molds her fist tightly. Adam needed to pay for what he did to her so she could live again, if Adam and Olivia don't get the taste of their own medicine then Alexandra will never be the same person ever again.
Deep in thought, she didn't realize the car was already out of the mud and the mechanic was now changing the tires. Nathaniel who has been gazing at her all along walks towards her and holds her hand causing her to jump.
"Are you okay?"
"Yes" she nods affirmatively
"Are you sure? You suddenly look pale"
"Trust me I'm fine"
"I don't believe you"
"Nathaniel" she whispers
Tucking a strand of hair behind her ear leans closer. "You are my mate so whatever troubles you also troubles me and devours my heart as well"
"Devour" she laughs
"Yes, I can tell you thought of something, what is it?"
"Nothing just something irrelevant"
"Hope it has nothing to with visiting my pack"
"You're unbelievable, first you care and next is your pack"
"Hey just shooting my shot at every chance"
Gazing into his eyes, he gazes back. "Why do you want to take me to your pack?"
"Isn't that what I'm supposed to do? Should there be a reason?"
"Not really but I was hoping you had one"
"Like which one"
"I don't know" she licks her lips. "I was expecting too much, let's leave it"
"What were you expecting?"
"Just this and that"
"I don't understand"
"Leave it Nathaniel, is something silly beside love isn't the ultimate anymore? Is just a joke"
"What are you saying? No matter what, love is something beautiful, people who fall in love end up enjoying their marriage and their time together with their mate"
"What of people who don't fall in love?"
"Everyone should have the chance to fall in love"
"For an Alpha, you speak of love with such Benevolence. Have you fallen in love with someone Alpha Nathaniel Starkov?"
Nathaniel gawks at her for a moment in silence wondering why she had asked him.
"I only admire one girl"
"And who is she?"
"You" he whispers
"I'm not a girl"
"Right you are a woman but you will always remain my girl. My true mate, the one my wolf howled out to. The one I kissed"
Running her hand through her hair, Alexandra smiles. She had thought he has forgotten about that kiss since they never spoke about it.
"Did you like it?"
"Like what?" She pretends to be ignorant of his question.
"You know what I'm talking about Alexandra, why do you love to play silly mind games with me"
Alexandra closes the space between them. "I love to see the look on your face so it makes it fun" her eyes were on his lips for a moment and she looks into his eyes.
"Did you enjoy the kiss?"
"You are a charmer"
"That's not an answer"
"What sort of answer do you want?"
"A simple yes or no will do"
"I don't do simplicity"
"You do simplicity, remember, is what you told me"
Alexandra scoffs. "Do you record all my words because is starting to get annoying"
"Are you mad at me?"
"No just hate it when you use my words against me"
"Did you enjoy the kiss"
"Why did you kiss me that day?"
"When I saw you there and perceived that aphrodisiac, all I wanted to do was kiss you but I had to control myself till I couldn't and then I did the only thing that was sounding in my head, kiss her so I took my shot"
"You took your shot"
"Yes I have dreamt about that moment every single night I fall asleep in bed"
"You dream about me?"
"Yes, about our kiss. Did you enjoy it"
"I kissed you back right?"
"That's not a response"
"Well that's the one I'm willing to give"
"What are you so scared of Alexandra? Why do you keep doing this?"
"I don't know what you are talking about" she glances around, blinking her eyes.
"It won't kill you to say you did enjoy the kiss or you didn't"
"If I say that I didn't enjoy it, won't you be mad?"
"I would but at least I will try to improve for the next time"
"You still want to kiss me"
"I would love to kiss you every day of my life, you are my mate and I enjoy kissing you, exploring the corners of your mouth"
Alexandra licks her dry lips. "Please stop saying that" she whispers
"Why? Don't you want to kiss me as well?"
"Of course, I want to kiss you over and over again till I lose count so can we please drop this"
Nathaniel smiles, he knew she wasn't shy but couldn't tell why she wanted to end their conversation.
"Do you want to kiss me now?"
Alexandra's eyes widened. "Are you crazy? Why would I kiss you now?"
"Why won't you?"
"We are on the road and there is an audience standing over there repairing our car"
Nathaniel laughs.
"What so funny?"
"You just said our car now"
Alexandra rolls her eyes. "You're unbelievable"
"You use that line a lot"
"Only when it comes to you"
"You must like me a lot then"
"Don't get ahead of yourself, you are my mate"
