Chapter 99: A Game of Truth and a Possessive Alpha
Lucian's POV
I couldn't take my eyes off her.
Aria Calloway stood across the room in that little black dress that hugged every perfect curve of her body. My body tensed as I noticed several guys turning to stare at her, their hungry gazes making my blood boil.
"Someone looks ready to commit murder," Gareth snickered beside me, following my line of sight.
I gripped my drink tighter, my knuckles whitening. "Those assholes need to stop staring at her."
Elias raised an eyebrow. "It's a party, man. What did you expect? She looks hot tonight."
"Exactly," Gareth added, nodding appreciatively. "She cleaned up nice. Can't blame the guys for looking."
I shot him a dangerous glare. "Tonight, some people will die at my hands if they don't back off."
My friends exchanged knowing glances, clearly amused by my possessiveness. I didn't care. Something primal had awakened inside me the moment I saw Aria walking in wearing that dress.
