CHAPTER 19: The Wolf In Heat
THE PARTY HAS OFFICIALLY started. The masters of ceremony told everyone to enjoy the party as
the loud music started to play from the musicians on the side. The soft music started to play in the
background.
The music playing was sweet, making everyone get their partners to dance with. Lilian's gaze went to
Calista at the corner. Calista's hand is being held by Alpha Facundo and pulled towards the dancefloor.
Lilian smiled at that sight. Now, she could tell that Calista seems to enjoy the party even though she
has been insulted by Florence a while ago. There are judgments on the wolves' eyes while looking at
Calista but she didn't mind it anymore.
Meanwhile, Lilian doesn't really have the energy to dance with any wolves tonight. She was actually
enjoying the attention of everyone looking at her but she will not give them the satisfaction to dance to
any of them. Every male species in the party is hoping to dance with her but she keeps on rejecting
them.
Even from a far distance, Lilian could feel the stare of a man on her side. Even though she's not
looking at that man, she knows that she's looking at her intently as if he wants to make sure if she's
even real or just his imagination. Her lips curved into a smirk. She's enjoying how she could sway his
mind just by only looking at her. It gives her so much satisfaction.
Moments later, as she sips on her wine, a tall man suddenly stops in front of her, getting her attention. Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
The scent of his familiar manly scent attacked her nostrils making her bite her lower lip seductively in
front of him. She smirked again as she looked up to his face. She became taller too that matched his
broad shoulders and chiseled chest. Her face is just on the same level of her chin even though she's
already wearing high heels.
"Hi," she greeted him with a smile on her lips. She could feel his uneasiness as he looked at her face...
like he's memorizing every detail while looking at her seriously.
"You're... alive," he said, almost whispering the last word. He breathed out uneasily as his tongue poke
his inner cheek then gulped.
Lilian chuckled. "Of course, I am! Your pack failed to eliminate me before! Silly!" She told him, trying to
lift up his mood through her shady joke but she didn't even budge but it was obvious that she didn't like
what she said. "Oh. Now, what? You still don't know how to ride jokes, Alpha Karius? Still the ever
serious alpha of the Moon Stone pack, eh?"
He sighed heavily. "Lilian... I..." He shook his head as he looked down like he was so ashamed to even
meet her gaze. "I am... sorry. I am so sorry..."
She let out a giggle again, as if she's making everything lightly and just a joke. Well, she was actually
surprised to herself that she's not affected by his presence anymore. She only felt the searing anger in
her chest as she looks at him now. Her affection towards him before every time he's near is gone.
Lilian could still remember how her heart thumped against her chest like she joined a marathon back
then and the butterflies in her stomach that would run wildly whenever they were together before.
Those memories are making her disgusted now.
"Why are you saying sorry? For hurting my feelings before? That's nothing to me now! We should just
forget about it! I have moved on! It's all in the past now." Lilian smiled. Yeah, maybe she has already
moved on but she still can't move on with the fact that he was the reason why she lost her baby before.
She blamed him on her baby's... death.
She clenched her jaw, remembering it again but it was immediately brushed away when he took a step
closer to her, still looking at her eyes.
"Can... Can we talk privately? Would that be fine with you?" he suddenly asked.
Lilian immediately shook her head. "No," she answered.
He sighed and nodded. "When will you have the time? Let's talk, please..."
Lilian secretly laughed. Wow. The alpha is begging her to talk to him. What a bull of crap!
"Still a no. I don't want to talk to you."
He slowly nodded his head. "Then... can I have this dance instead?" he asked again as he looked at
her with his hopeful expression.
Lilian pouted a bit as she tilted her head, her finger slightly touching her chin playfully like she's thinking
how to answer his simple question. But then, an idea came to her mind. She smirked as she glanced at
the wolves who's obviously looking at the two of them, observing what would happen next. It doesn't
surprise her anymore why they are hungry about Alpha Karius' whereabouts. Everyone will be really
curious about this man in front of her. It was Alpha Karius that she's with right now so it's a big deal for
them. Of course, all eyes will be on him.
"Hmm. Sorry, but my answer is still the same. It's still a no," she said as she smiled, leaving him with
his hand still in the air asking for a dance with her. Everyone gasped at Lilian's rejection of the famous
Alpha.
Some of them are glaring at Lilian but she doesn't care anymore. She was just smirking as she saw the
disappointment of everyone's faces.
***
THINKING ABOUT WHAT happened earlier makes Lilian want to burst out in laughter. She watched
Alpha Karius' expression from afar and he looked really stunned by her rejection, leaving him hanging
there while everyone was looking at him.
Everyone didn't really expect that the handsome alpha would be rejected like that when every female
wolf wanted so badly to dance with him.
Lilian was in a very good mood as he stepped inside the comfort room to pee. She got inside the last
cubicle and took it all out with a smirk. When she's done, she went out to wash her hands and looked
at herself in the mirror. She looked flushed since she drank wine earlier. Even though she's a wolf,
she's a little bit tipsy now since she's not really used to drinking wine or alcohol. She has actually low
alcohol tolerance.
She giggled when she remembered what happened a while ago again. She was smiling and didn't
notice anyone suddenly entered the room anymore.
"Lilian... love.."
Lilian's brows furrowed when she saw the familiar face of Alpha Karius appeared in front of her. He had
this pleading face again as he looked at her.
"What are you doing here?" She asked with her sharpest tone this time. Since they are not in front of
the wolves now, she can stop the show.
"How are you?" He asked with full of gentleness in his tone. His eyes softened the moment he saw how
angry she was right now.
She laughed mockingly. "How dare you ask me that question. I've never been this fine when I was still
in your pack."
"Lilian..."
"What? Don't tell me you have already forgotten my stand in your pack. I'm the thief omega who stole
something from your Luna."
"She's not my Luna. My Luna is right here in front of me," he told her as he tried to hold her hand but
she was fast enough to shoo it away by slapping it.
"Don't fucking tell me that!" For some reason, her tears started to brim the corner of her eyes but she's
trying so hard to stop it. She will not cry in front of him. She will not show any weakness to give him the
satisfaction. Maybe this is just the wine that's affecting her system now. She should not act this way
while he's here!
"Lilian... forgive me, please, love."
"I will never forgive someone who caused me so much pain before. I lost a very precious loved one
because of you," she said without any hint of emotion on her face.
She remembered her... baby. The baby that she didn't even have the chance to hold. She didn't even
have the chance to be called his or her Mama. She wanted to chuckle at her own thoughts. She didn't
even have the chance to know the gender of her baby.
She stared at Alpha Karius with her most angry expression. She wanted to hurt him as much as he
hurted her before.
Fixing the side of her hair, she's getting ready to leave as she holds her gown but then she suddenly
tripped making him fall on Alpha Karius' hard chest. Her eyes widened in fraction on what happened
and wasn't able to move quickly.
She was able to sniff his manly scent and saw his rough features closely. She saw his Adam's apple
move when his gaze went down to her red luscious lips.
Before something that she didn't like happened between them, she harshly got away from him but an
unexpected thing happened.
Her core suddenly ached and throbbed as she looked at him. It felt like her body was suddenly on fire.
"N-No, damn it..." she whispered.
She's in heat. Damn it!
