The Werewolf King’s Runaway Queen
Chapter 43

Alissa's POV

I woke up to the ray of sunlight in my room and I covered my eyes with my hand before pushing myself to sit up.

A smile crossed my face and I chuckled what happened last night.

As soon as it crossed my mind, I flushed red and immediately felt embarrassed for remembering it.

What's supposed to be just a talk became a make up session.

Thank ghad that there weren't anyone present because it was already late at night.

Also luckily, that make out session didn't progress any more than it should.

I was relieved but both Luke's wolf and I were left hanging and now, they're going to constantly drive us crazy for more.

I got out of bed and went to the bathroom to shower.

Today, I plan on visiting Bryan and I'll pick him up this morning to bond.

I haven't been able to spend time with him for a while because I've been a little busy and I was caught up in training. After showering, a brown solid crew neck tee, white sweatpants and a pair of white sneakers.

I dried my hair and simply let it down.

Then, I made my way outside the room.

As soon as I opened the door, I saw Luke leaning by the wall.

Our eyes met and I could see his tired and restless eyes.

"Hey. What happened to you?" I asked as I approached him.

I was about to touch his face when he stopped me and held my hand.

Like stared straight into my eyes.

"You happened" he said and even before I could say anything, Luke pushed me back to the room and closed the door. Then, he spun me around and pushed my back onto the door and kissed me.

I could feel his desire from his kisses as he held my face and my waist.

I responded to his kisses with the same intensity as I placed my hand on the side of his neck and on his chest.

I grabbed Luke's shirt and pulled him closer to me making him groan.

"Ghad, Alissa" he lowly growled when our lips separated.

I slightly chuckled.

"Good morning" I said.

Luke chuckled as he laid his forehead on mine.

"Good morning" he said.

"Did you sleep well?" I asked.

Luke shook his head.

"I couldn't sleep a wink" he said.

I looked at him curiously.

"Why not?" I asked.

"I don't know. You tell me. Why do you think I wasn't able to sleep last night huh" he said and held my chin.

I chuckled again.

"What? So it's my fault?" I said.

"Yeah. I blame it on you" he said before leaning in for another kiss.

This time, it was a slow passionate kiss. It was different from last night and from earlier.

Luke placed his hand on the side of my neck and the other on the small of my back as he pulled me closer to him.

While the kiss from last night and from earlier felt hot and passionate. This one felt warm and sweet.

It was simply magical and I hoped it wouldn't stop.

Then, there was a knock on the door and I instinctively pushed Luke.

Luke stumbled back and fell on the bed as he looked at me stunned.

"Who is it?" I asked a bit panicked.

"Ali, it's me" I heard Liana's voice.

My eyes widened and I glanced at Luke.

'Hide' I mouthed to him.

He looked at me confused but I motioned for him to move.

He shook his head in disbelief and hid below the bed.

I fixed myself and opened the door for Lia.

"Good morning, girly!" she greeted me enthusiastically and hugged me.

I smiled.

"Good morning, Lia" I said hugging her back.

Then, she held my hand.

"Do you have plans to-" she was about to ask but stopped.

Her brows furrowed slowly as she sniffed and I gulped nervously.

Lia looked at me and raised a brow at me.

"Did my brother visit you early this morning?" she suddenly asked.

"Oh uh yeah. He uh stopped by to talk to me earlier" I lied.

Lia nodded as ahe let go of my hand.

"Hm. That's odd" she commented.

"What do you mean?" I asked nervously.

"It's either he came by just before I did or" she said then walked over to the bed.

"Lia-" I was about to stop her but she already peeked below my bed.

"Aha! I knew it! I could smell your scent all over the room!" Lia said.

Luke got out below the bed eithya frown on his face as he dusted himself off.

Lia looked at both her brother and I.

"And what exactly is going on here? Why are you lying and why are you hiding?" Lia said crossing her arms in front of her chest. Luke stood beside me and suddenly held my waist.

"You guys talk. I'm going to fix a few paperworks" Luke said and what he did next made me freeze on my spot.

He gave me a peck on the lips in front of Liana.

"I'll see you later" he said as I was frozen in shock and then glanced at Lia and gave her a nod.

Lia also stood there in shock as Luke walked out of the room.

What in the actuall hell is wrong with him?

"Oh okay. Wow. Since when was this happening? The casual kiss and? Alissa?" she said.

I gulped.

Ghad.

"Did you guys do it already or? No, that's impossible. If you guys did, you'd be marked by now" she said shaking her head.

"Lia, it's...complicated" I said.

"Girl, I have all the time in the world right now. Take your time to explain because I'm not letting you off unless you do" she said and pulled me to sit on the bed. "Spill" she said.

I took a deep breath.

How am I even supposed to get in detail with everything that's happening?

"We uh...we made out last night, I guess?" I said.

Lia gasped as she looked at me wide eyed.

"You guys what?" she said.

"We made out" I repeated as I flushed red.

"Why?" Lia asked.

I gave him a look.

"You're seriously asking me why?" I said.

Lia just looked at me.

"I don't know, Liana. It kinda just happened, okay?" I said.

"Why were you guys even together last night?" she pointed out.

"I was on the balcony when he came and then he came to my room then one thing led to another" I explained.

Liana just looked at me as if she was judging me.

"Don't look at me like that. I wouldn't have expected it to happen either" I said.

Liana slightly chuckled.

"I'll stop judging you only because I know you're mates and it's normal that you guys wouldn't be able to resist each other" she said with a shrug.

"It's just so funny to me how you guys literally fought beforehand" she said.

"I know right" I agreed.

Both Lia and I chuckled.

"The mate bond is so weird" I said.

Lia nodded in agreement.

"Anyways, what do you plan on doing today?" Lia asked me.

"I'm going to meet up with Bryan to spend time with him" I said.

Lia nodded.

"Ali" she said.

"Hm?" I replied with a hum.

"Don't you think it's about time that you give your mom and Axel another chance? I mean, you're literally going to get married soon and in time, you might build your own family. Do you really want to stay in bad terms with your family until then?" she said. I bit my lower lip.

"I'm just saying, Ali. A lot of things might have changed about your family since you left" she said.

I sighed.

"I'll think about it" I said.

"You should" Lia said.

Lia and I talked a bit more and after that, I headed out of the Palace and walked to the cabins.

I knocked on their door and my mom opened the door.

"Ali" she said softly as she saw.

"Is Bryan around" I asked.

Mom nodded and he called Bryan.

Bryan came running from upstairs.

"Can I take him out to bond in the territory?" I asked.

Mom nodded.

"Of course" she said.

"Ali" Bryan hugged me.

"Let's go out and play?" I said and Bry nodded.

Bryan and I left and we went through the territory and played together.

It was so nice hearing Bry's giggles and laughter.

As I spent time with him, I thought about what Lia said.

She's right.

I've been on bad terms with mom and Axel for such a long time and there will be big changes in my life soon.

Do I really want to start a new chapter in my life without fixing my relationship with them?

No.

I actually don't want that.

As I was with Bry, I thought it through.

Then when were done, I walked Bry back again and mom opened the door for us again.

"Can I ask something?" I suddenly said.

Mom must have been a little surprised but nodded.

"Of course. You can ask anything" she said.

"Are you guys free tomorrow?" I said.

It's now or never.
