alcohol recking from his breath. Lyra frowned as she tried to hold her breath. How much longer was she going to have to put up with this man?!! She looked to Aiden for what to do next.
Aiden gave her a thumbs up and she nodded. She bent over and slowly patted the alpha.
“Honey, you need to stand up if not, you’d like all over the carpet and that is not something an alpha should be seen doing?!” She said in a loud
whisper. He could hear her clearly but people far from them couldn’t. Lucian rose a little as he tried to move his b*dy upward a little. He needed to see her face.
“Yes. I am the Alpha but I think I can be excused today. I just lost my heir to my position. I can be allowed to do whatever I want today. I am grieving. A grieving man should be forgiven” he said.
“How about you seat with me and help make this all go away. Please” he
said to her.
Lyra looked to Aiden who gave her a thumbs up again before she went ahead to join l*ps with The Alpha, Lucian.
Lucian leaned in further as he also pulled her into him and tried so much to hug his mate in a tight embrace. Lyra k*ssed him on the cheek shortly and tried to break it off but he refused. He held her by the shoulders and back as he continued to hug her. His presence was already irritating to Lyra but she had to hold it in. She stared at Aiden the whole time who kept giving her a thumbs up.
Lyra felt disgusted but she could do nothing about it. After all, sl the alpha’s luna. Amidst their passionate hug, Lucian tried to r but she pushed him away. He tried again and she flung his han flung his hand to her side and Lucian felt something strange.
As a pregant woman, one’s belly was suppose to be hard a little bu belly felt different.

He felt a soft sheet as he reached in to check. He pinched at her stoma but she did not scream or cry for help. Instead, she awkwardly hugged him back. Lucian’s eyes opened widely. He wondered what he was

touching if it wasn’t his mate’s stomach.
He immediately shifted back as he pushed her backwards too. He was about to speak and ask questions but then, he thought about it. What if this was what Lyra was hiding? What if he acted like he did not know and investigated it to the end, not letting her know that he had caught on.
“What’s wrong Lucian?” Lyra asked her as she stood watching him, shocked and speechless. “What made you push me away that fast? Is there
something wrong?” She asked again..
Lucian shook his head as he tried to balance his weight on his feet. He looked around him as he tried to dust off the dirt he had on his b*dy. Lyra offered to help him clean it off as she turned to his back and tried to shield Aiden with her slender frame. Aiden leaned into the door frame and tried to shield himself too from Lucian seeing him. He didn’t want any problem at that moment. Lucian was almost done dusting himself off and Aiden started to get worried. What were they going to do?
Aiden signaled to Lyra to try and hug her mate. She could not get it and so he tried to use his hand and gesture to her as though he was hugging her. Lyra Finally got it and turned to hug Lucian. She gave him a warm hug and let him rest in her embrace for a couple of minutes. All the while she did this, Aiden had attempted to turn the other way and leave but he could not. Lucian’s tail stood up in the air and could not afford to step on it or walk over it. One wrong move could send them in the wrong direction. He waited patiently until, finally, the Alpha’s tail calmed down as it fell to the
floor.
Lucian smiled at his mate for hugging him. He k*ssed her on her foreh and hugged her again. He shifted backward a little and paused to look a
her.
“How about we make another one.? Right here and now?”
What?” She asked him. Lyra had hoped he was only joking with her but it seemed serious. He was not joking with her.
“No”
