Betrayed Heiress: My Second Chance Mate is A Lycan King

Alex’s POV

Her eyes widen with surprise as I step right through the door. I can’t believe she was actually surprised that I found her. I mean, what did she think? That she could hide in her own company forever?

The second the news of what she had done to Carla reached me, I instantly sought to find her. But she was nowhere to be found. I asked Carla about her whereabouts, and all she could tell me was, “I don’t know; after she stabbed me, she just made sure I was okay before disappearing.”

I looked at her cautiously before asking, “Are you sure you are okay?”

she shrugs. “Yeah, I think so. I mean, one moment I was being grasped by the cold hands of death, and the next I was just… fine. It was scary but relieving at the same time,” she paused and sucked her bottom lip into my mouth. “I do not know what is going on with Aira. She is spiraling; I can’t tell if it was her powers that nearly killed me or brought me back. Please help her.”

I nod in agreement and say, “I will. You don’t have to be worried about that. You, on the other hand,” I point at her, slowly backing away to begin my search for her. “Go get yourself properly checked by the doctor and ensure that you are actually okay. You and the baby.”

She nods in agreement before I turn my back on her to go in search for Aira. I could tell from the very second that she was no longer within the four walls of this palace. I couldn’t sense her anywhere. I knew after what she had done to Carla she would be drowning in guilt and regret.

I decided to give her space; I knew she needed time for herself, and thanks to our mate bond, I could sense whether she was in danger or not. But I didn’t know she would want to isolate herself for three whole days!

For three days, I didn’t get a glimpse of her, and it scared me. Every night I kept contemplating whether or not I should go look for her or if I should give her more time. But after these three days, I am convinced that she has had more than enough time. And besides, I want my mate back. I miss her.

While I searched for her, I didn’t know exactly where to find her or where I was going. I mainly relied on my Lycan to track her down. And he did.

In her very own office. Who would have thought this would be the place she would come to hide? The second I stepped into the establishment, all eyes were on me. Nobody dared to stop me, and that was because they all knew who I was. Not because I was the CEO’s mate, but because of who I was before I even met her.

And I can easily go back to that same person if anyone dared get in my way.

I stepped into her office, and her eyes grew wider than saucers. She adjusted her suit jacket and corset, and I had to control myself at the sight of her. She looked absolutely breathtaking sitting behind that desk with her legs crossed and going through some documents.

She dropped the paper and cleared her throat. “Alexander, I didn’t know you would be visiting.”

My eyelids narrow to slits as I take a seat in front of her desk. “Who the fuck are you calling Alexander?” Her cheeks grow a shade redder, and she looks away from me without replying. So I say, “You haven’t come home in three days.”

“I know,” is her vague response, which pisses me off more than it should.

“So when are you going to come back home?” I ask her, and she lets out an exaggerated breath.Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

“I don’t know; I have quite a lot of work here,” she says, and I can’t believe that she actually takes me for a fool.

“Bullshit. You and I know that you have the best staff that can handle anything and everything for you. You just don’t want to come home,” I state, and she doesn’t even attempt to argue with me. There is a moment of silence between us. She stares down at the documents absentmindedly, and I can see the million thoughts swirling within her mind.

“Carla is fine, Aira. Please come home,” I say softly. I can’t have her here and be back at the palace; it will tear me apart and thwart my concentration. I need to be at my kingdom, and my kingdom needs its luna.

Tears well up in her eyes, and she lets out a shaky breath. “I can’t. It was a miracle that I was able to heal her on time; I can’t guarantee that I will be able to do that again. If Carla and her child do, then I won’t be able to live with myself.”

“And do you think being here will guarantee that you won’t hurt anyone again?” I ask her, and she remains silent. Not because she couldn’t answer me, but because she was too shamed to say it out. But that was the thing about Aira; she was transparent. I could see right through her. Everything she tried to hide from me was already out in the open before me.

That was the special perks of a mate bond. Her thoughts were my thoughts, her feelings were my feelings, her pain, and every emotion was mine as well. And vice versa.

“You don’t care if anything happens to them,” I state confidently, and her eyes widen slightly with surprise. I continue, “You dont care if you bring this place to the ground, even with everyone inside, because you dont care for them as much as you care for us, right?”

She tears her gaze away from mine and says through gritted teeth, “You do not know what you are talking about. I wouldn’t want to hurt anyone.”

I get off my chair and walk around her table, stopping by her side and taking her by the hand. I lift her up to her feet, and our chests touch. Her eyes stare deeply into mine as I take her chin in between my fingers. “You know, just as much as you have had an impact on me, I have had an impact on you. You know you can’t run from me; you can’t take my child away from me, so you go somewhere close, somewhere within range, and far from the people you hold dear. And then you act like everything is okay, so people don’t see that you are slowly breaking inside.”

Tears swirl within her eyes, and she lets out a sob. As soon as that sound infiltrates my ears, I hold her closely to me and shush her. She cries into my chest as I caress her hair; the tightness in her chest and the ache in her heart-I could feel it all.

I wish I could take it all away.

I wish only I could bear the pain. I hated seeing her this way.

“I don’t want to hurt anyone, Alex, I swear,” she says in between sobs and hums.

“I know.” I pull her away a bit to get a look at her face. With my thumbs, I wipe away her tears and say, “And I am going to make sure that you don’t. We will figure out a way to control these powers of yours, but I can’t do that if you keep running away from me.”

“You are right,” she admits, shutting her eyes and letting another tear slide down her face.

Once I wipe it away, I nudge her so she looks at me. “Promise me that you won’t run away again. Promise me that you won’t run from the spirits; you will stand strong, find solutions, focus on the positive side, and face all obstacles head-on. Can you promise me that?”

She lets out a dry laugh, and I am glad that I was able to bring a smile to her face, even if it was faint. “That is quite a lot to promise,” she jokes, but then says, “I promise.”

The kiss I place at the top of her forehead is prolonged. I just loved being near her, having her so close to me, and filling my lungs with her scent. I do not think she will ever know just how much I love her.

“That’s my queen.” I rasp, and she smiles sweetly at me. My gaze fell to her pink cherry lips, and I wanted to taste them so bad. I suppose this isn’t the right time for that.

I need to put some distance between us; being this close to her wasn’t good for this situation.

I try to take a step back, but I am overtaken by surprise when she wraps her arms around my shoulders and presses a kiss to my lips. My body instantly responds to her, and I kiss her back.

Her lips take just like strawberry, so sweet. My hands found their way to her hips, and I pulled her closer to me. She moans into the kiss, and my member twitches at the sound. The kiss deepens, and the back of her legs meet the edge of her table.

My teeth clamp down on her bottom lip, and I pull it softly. When I let go of her, I rasp, “You have no idea how much I have missed you these past three days.”

She looks up at me with those seductive eyes and says, “You are the one who waited so long; I have been waiting for you to come find me.”

“Is that so?” I tease, spinning her around and causing a gasp to leave her mouth. Her palms fall flat on the table, and her ass meets my hard member through our pants. “I am going to make you wish I never did.”

In a matter of seconds. I was pulling her blazer down her arms and undoing the straps of her corset. Her breasts spring free, and I do not give her time to recover before loosening her pants. They pool around her feet, and her glorious body stands bare before me.

I almost salivate at the sight of her. Every curve, every edge, every freckle, and every feature of hers was to be worshiped.

“Beautiful,” I whisper, and her cheeks turn a bright shade of pink. Placing a kiss on her lips, I push her gently down on the table. She lays on her back before me, her legs apart and her soaking middle on full display for me.

I growled at the sight.

Slowly, I go down on her, sliding my tongue over her vertical lips. Her moans were like music to my ears, and her wetness was like syrup on my tongue.

“Fuck, you taste so good,” I moan against her pussycat, gripping both her thighs and pulling her even closer to my mouth. My tongue wiggles around her clitters, and she arcs her back, her moans getting louder by the second.

I couldn’t take it any more; I needed to be inside her.

So I take out my member and rub the tip around her wet pussy. “You want it?” I ask, and she bites her bottom lip in anticipation. She nods in confirmation, and the look I gave her told her that I would not be accepting that.

So she says, “Yes, please; I need you.”

That was all I needed to hear before sliding my member fully into her. We release a long breath at the same time, getting consumed by the feeling of one another. Her walls clenched around me, sending a tingly sensation across my body.

Slowly, I begin to thrust into her. Her body bounces in response to my thrusts, and her table begins to creak and shake as I quicken my pace. My eyes fall to her round boobs bobbing up and down as my thrusts quicken. I grab them and squeeze them harshly, playing and pinching her nipples.

Her body arcs against me, and I have never seen anything so sexy.

“Ah yes, just like that!” She prompts me further, and her words turn me on even more. My eyes fall shut as I relish in this feeling that she gave me.

My dick twitched in her, and I felt her walls clench even more around me. Three more thrusts in, and we both reached our climax; our pants filled the office, and her hooded eyes met mine.

“I love you” are the words that leave my lips on instinct. I come down on her until our lips brush. “I will protect you and this child until my dying breath.”

And that was a promise I intended to keep.
