I Am The Luna By Moonlight Muse

Joan blushes when Zade's eyes flick to her and her eyes widen. "Oh my, hello..."

She offers him a hand, but he simply gives her a nod, looking away. I do the same, noticing we are getting a lot of attention and the majority of that is from women gawking at Zade.

I honestly cannot blame them, thinking of my poor ovaries. If just looking at him could get us pregnant, I think a bunch of women would be right now.

'You're the centre of attention.' I remark through the bond.

'And so are you, but I do wonder if the women here have some kinda suit fetish. It's weird as fuck.'

I smile, if only he knew you need a body that fits so divinely in a suit to look this good.

"Call it a fetish or whatever you want, but it's worked on me. And not every man can pull off a suit like you do." I whisper, leaning up and kissing his neck, pressing my chest against his and taking the chance to raise my leg and rub my thigh against his crotch.

His eyes flash as he pulls me closer, his nose brushing mine before his lips ghost along my throat. "You are tempting me, Little Mate... and I'm already struggling to control myself." His delicious deep voice rasps.

My heart thumps as my eyes flutter shut when his lips meet my neck, hunger and passion so clear from the way he's kissing me. I sigh softly, unable to resist when someone clears their throat, pulling us from our heated moment of passion.

I tug away slightly, only to see Cassian standing there. He's dressed in a grey suit and smiles at me when our eyes meet.

"Valerie, Zade, I wasn't expecting either of you here. I didn't see your name on the attendees' list." He says, stepping closer to us.

"We decided to come in the end, besides there were some spaces available," Zade says quietly.

"And I didn't realise you were helping with the event," I remark at the mention of the guest list, my mind already thinking a thousand things.

Goddes,s has Zade made me wary of everything!

Cassian laughs lightly, motioning for us to follow. "Well, yes, I didn't want to try to get you to attend because of that. It's a small town. We're one big family. If we don't help one another, who will?" "True, especially right in the middle of nowhere," Zade says.

'What is it?'

'Not much but I was just thinking this place is a small town in the middle of nowhere... the perfect place to carry out things without anyone asking or bringing too much attention to them...' he answers. 'And although the virus cases are heavier here, this place is never in the news.

Cassian chuckles. "True true."

"There's definitely a lot to talk about, and we didn't get a chance last time," Zade replies.

My gaze flits around us as we head inside, wondering who is friend and who is foe. If this place is also a base for the Arkan, we could be in danger tonight.

"Yes, I almost didn't recognise you from that day!" Cassian laughs.

"Valerie has told me all about the incredible research you are doing with her. How about we find someplace a little more private to have a drink and chat?" Zade says, making Cassian smile, clearly

happy with that.

"I'd love that, and I think the attention you are getting is rather... a lot."

I chuckle, but I'm uneasy, especially when I know something isn't right about him.

"Yeah, it is," Zade says as we head

into the lobby where everyone seems to stop and stare as we pass, but he doesn't spare them a glance, his hand gripping my waist as Cassian motions a waiter overto where there are four armchairs. Zade and Cassian sit and Zade

refuses a drink and I follow suit.

Cassian shrugs, taking one. "It's a ball. You should enjoy a drink or two." He chuckles.

"I don't drink," Zade answers smoothly.

"And we're driving." I lie.

Cassian cocks a brow but says nothing when I'm about to take the seat beside Zade and he pulls me into his lap instead.

My heart races, but I simply run my hand along his back, wrapping my arm around his shoulders and kiss Zade softly. We break apart and Km about to turn towards Cassian when I catch a glimpse of his expression in the glass lamp base that sits on a small table beside us. Content

An expression so cold and contemptuous that it sends a shiver of unease down my spine...

A/N: Hi everyone, I see some people asking about Atticus, he will get a novella after this book is completed, it will be short but I'm sure you will all love it Whether this will be right after this book ends or after a while it will still be attached to this book.
