“Will you marry me, Alpha Xavier?” I asked and bowed slightly. Lord Xavier is currently the Alpha of the Leonard family. 
Apparently, he’s been hailed as one of the strongest men on the continent—and the most handsome. Not like that matters to me but I guess it’s a plus. 
“Excuse me?” The man stared at me in disbelief. “If have to repeat myself, will you marry me?” I looked up at Xavier who hadn’t moved a muscle nor taken his eyes off of me. 
He just needs to accept my proposal already! This silence and waiting is unbearable! I’m offering you money and power. 
What more could you possibly— “I accept your marriage proposal.” Xavier interrupted my thoughts and released his hold on me. I’ve succeeded! Another step closer to your death, my Lord…

 ------- Xavier’s POV 

I accepted the witch girl’s proposal and walked out of the parlor without looking back at her. How could I? 
My heart raced inside of my chest, though I knew that these beats weren’t my own. Throughout the entire ordeal, something itched in the back of my mind. I knew what it was. 
“Lyon!” I commanded through thought. “What was that all about? What happened?” A howl echoed through my mind. 
“She’s our mate!” Lyon exclaimed. Mate?! The daughter of the Wisdom family was supposed to be my Luna? I couldn’t believe that the Moon Goddess was capable of such jokes and trickery.

Propose To The Alpha

I found myself irritated with Adrian having interrupted my time with Eloise. Though I couldn’t deny how my mind was clouded with indecent thoughts of her body, especially lately.


Ever since we became intimate, all I could ever think about was how I was going to bend her body to my will at any chance in the bedroom. Time spent at my meetings was almost unbearable because I just wanted to experience her touch over and over again.


For someone whose virginity I had just taken, Eloise has already learned the art of pleasure so quickly…


I shooed the thoughts away. No time to think about that now… no matter how hard it is not to.


“I have something important to tell you, my Lord.” Adrian bowed and interrupted my thoughts. “I’m just sorry I had to take you away from Lady Eloise.”


I waved my hand dismissively. “No need to apologize. My duties come first. What have you found?”
