“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

When we arrived in the bedroom, Xavier laid me down on the bed gently. He closed my balcony door and covered the windows.


I watched as he took his shirt and tunic off, exposing his chiseled muscles underneath. I felt heat rise in my chest as he hovered his body over me.


He softly pressed his lips against mine as I parted my mouth to take in and relish his taste.


“Let us enjoy the night, my Lady. Whatever comes tomorrow, I want these moments to be filled with passion and tenderness.” Xavier’s voice was low against my ear.


I shuddered as his lips brushed against my collarbone. My voice was barely above a whisper. “I’m ready, my Lord. Let’s enjoy each other as if tonight might be our last.”


He looked up at me with a cheeky smile as our bodies intertwined for the night; pleasurable sighs and moans escaping our lips like music.
