The secret (1)
With a gaze full of revenge and anger, Luna pointed the tip of her sword downward and swung the sword in her hand right at Alkrevas’s neck. Her heart was pounding rapidly, and the few seconds that passed with the sword swinging felt like an eternity. The closer the sword’s blade got, the more time seemed to stretch, but everything stopped abruptly. Time froze in an instant as Alkrevas’s hand quickly raised and gripped the sword so tightly, thwarting Luna’s attempt to kill the man.
Luna’s eyes widened in shock, and her brown eyes met Alkrevas’s red eyes, which were blazing with fury. In stark contrast to the rage-filled red eyes, Alkrevas’s lips formed a wide grin that sent shivers down Luna’s spine. Despite this, she continued with her plan, trying to press down on the sword and push it with all her strength. However, it was a futile effort as the strength difference between her and Alkrevas was vast. Alkrevas didn’t even seem to struggle while holding the sword above his neck.
A drop of blood began to fall onto Alkrevas’s skin, followed by more drops, indicating that his grip was so firm that the silver sword’s blade pierced his palm, causing a severe wound as blood started to flow profusely. Alkrevas did this to control his emotions, especially considering that his soulmate was trying to kill him after their mating night.
Luna’s determination was strong; she didn’t want to give up easily because, with Alkrevas dead, nothing would hinder her plan to return to her world. The possibility that Alkrevas might know her true identity was annoying, especially given his attempts to destroy the temple where the portal was located.
Luna snorted internally. It hadn’t even been forty hours since she had been beside the man, and they ended up in such a situation, proving that they weren’t meant to be together, right? However, despite her thoughts, her heart and soul felt differently. Somehow, these thoughts made her heart and soul ache, refusing to accept reality. Her heart and soul desired to be in the warm and protective embrace of the man, just like the previous night.
The pain and the inability to hurt him, not to mention the trembling in her body upon seeing his wounds and blood, made her feel she couldn’t bear to see him suffer. Luna’s jaw clenched.
Where did all these strange feelings come from? She didn’t even know Alkrevas well enough to fall in love with him. Luna pushed aside all the feelings and emotions stirring within her heart, closing off the foreign feelings with logic. She wouldn’t let these strange feelings take over and make her forget that she didn’t belong here, that she needed to return to the people who worried about and loved her.
With that thought, Luna poured all her strength into fighting Alkrevas, which elicited a soft chuckle from him. The wide grin on his face turned into a mocking smile.
“Do you think you can defeat me, little mate?” he asked in a deep and raspy voice, the kind typical after waking up, and hearing that made Luna’s body respond. The trembling in her body grew more potent, and her heart felt like it was going to explode.
What was happening? Alkrevas’s red eyes grew darker before he lowered his hand for a moment and then pushed the sword out of Luna’s hand, sending it flying away. Luna screamed in frustration and looked at the sword that Alkrevas’s strong push had thrown away, a reckless action as she took her eyes off her enemy.
Alkrevas clicked his tongue softly, then used the momentum to rise and grab Luna’s body, pushing her down onto the bed. He then grabbed Luna’s hands, locking them behind her back with one hand. Alkrevas exhaled sharply as he saw Luna struggle hard, trying to break free, which made him sit on her body, pinning her down with his legs so she couldn’t move, incapacitating her in an instant.
Luna screamed in anger and hissed, “Let me go! You bastard! Let me go!” She writhed and tried to free her hands from Alkrevas’s grip.
Luna glared at him from over her shoulder with a sharp gaze. Still, Alkrevas didn’t care and was entirely unaffected because what he felt at that moment was intense pleasure, an electric shock running through his entire body from the touch of her skin and their eye contact. Even the sound of his soulmate’s heartbeat, which was in sync with his own, made Alkrevas drunk with desire.RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only
Alkrevas groaned and felt Norris trying to take control of his body. He immediately bent down and kissed the nape of Luna’s neck, which elicited a soft moan from the woman. He didn’t stop there; Alkrevas also kissed the claimed mark he had given her the previous night on the right side of her neck, making her moan loudly, and her breath come in ragged gasps. “What are you-”
“How long do you plan to resist like this, little mate? You’re lucky you’re my soulmate. Attempting murder, injuring the emperor, and speaking harshly would make you a high-level criminal and get you a death sentence. Do you know that, my empress?” Luna’s body tensed at the man’s address to her.
Empress? Luna’s face turned pale. No. It can’t be. She was not the man’s soulmate and couldn’t be the empress. Panic immediately overwhelmed her. She tried to push away Alkrevas, who was still sniffing the crook of her neck. Luna struggled to ignore the vibrations and electric shocks running through her body. The urges of desire would not sway her.
No. Alkrevas clicked his tongue, then moved his face away from Luna’s neck, observing her for a moment, and then, a scream escaped Luna’s lips. The scream turned into a groan of pain, and she closed her eyes tightly.
Luna buried her face in the sheets. Her head pounded as if something was hammering inside it. The sensation was so honest it made her want to shoot her head. Something seemed to be pushing and trying to enter. Luna tried to resist, which made Alkrevas growl and whispered, “Don’t fight me, little mate. Let me into your mind.”
Luna whimpered. No. She didn’t want this. What was the man doing to her? Entering her mind? A tear slowly trickled from the corner of her eye due to the pain, and then a tiny sob escaped her lips. “My beautiful Luna… give me permission to enter.”
Luna screamed as the pain intensified. The pressure she was resisting grew more substantial, and she began to lose, unable to withstand the foreign power.
Finally, the force entered her mind, making itself comfortable inside her, then read all the thoughts in her head, controlling her mind at will. The presence was so dominant that Luna could only lie weakly, crying. She felt a kiss on the back of her head from Alkrevas, and then he moved off her body.
“What… what did you just… do?” Luna whispered weakly.
Alkrevas reached for the pants lying on the carpet and casually put them on. He examined the wound on his hand, which had already started the regeneration process-taking longer because his sword contained silver-and finally healed completely. It was one of the healing abilities of a werewolf, and it was beneficial on the battlefield.
Alkrevas clenched his hand several times, then used magic to create a bracelet with the thinnest and lightest chain. After that, he walked to where his sword lay. He bent down, picked it up, sheathed it, and placed it on the sofa.
Alkrevas turned toward the bed, seeing his woman lying in a fetal position, her body shaking, indicating she was crying. He closed his eyes and quickly entered Luna’s mind, reading her thoughts, and smiled at the curses she directed at him. Alkrevas would need more effort to break his woman’s rebellious spirit and make her more obedient and submissive to him.
