They returned to the palace after Nora fell back asleep again; she couldn’t believe she’d gone for days with no food or water, relying only on her will to reach the Calhan pack.

Rygan watched Elise from behind her stiff frame, her eyes bleak and empty with silence, not until his hand touched hers when she reached for the doorknob.

*Will you

be alright?*

“I think so. I just need rest and time to think,” she assures him as she nods in understanding before letting her go into her chambers. His body itches to follow but turns away to his room.

In his guest chambers, he busied himself signing papers and documents that Taz had sent to be approved. He busied himself for an hour or so before he turned to the windows to see the sky darken.

Then rain begins to drizzle, and a c**g, loud snap of thunder shakes the sky as Rygan drops his pen. He recalls how thunder makes Elise feel about her mother, especially with what had happened earlier with Nora. He knew he needed to be by her side. “Screw everything else,” he muttered, standing up.

He only had one mission ahead.

Elise hadn’t been able to do anything else since meeting with Nora; even in the tub, she had been lost in thought, brooding anxiously until the water had cooled, prompting her to finally get out and wear her night robe.

But as the sky darkened, she felt a tad worse, and her uneasiness increased when she heard the c**k of thunder. Now she couldn’t sleep. She paced up and down her room, biting her nails in nervousness, but stopped when she heard the creep of someone’s footsteps stop by her door.

*It’s me,* Rygan notes before Elise practically marches to the door in fast strides, opening it for him to come in.

“Rygan… What are you…”

“I couldn’t stay away” He mutters as he envelops her in a warm embrace, her nostrils immediately filled with his calming scent that helps tone down the sounds of the heavy rain and wash out the loud noise.

He then leads her to the open fireplace; he sits down by one of the chairs before bringing Elise down to settle on his lap. His hands sneak for her waist to edge her

closer, till her head lay atop his and Rygan’s head leaned on her chest, till he heard the sound of her pounding heart.

Elise wraps her arms around him, letting his head lean atop her chest, and he drops a kiss in between her breasts. “You know, I never thought of ever going back to the Silver Night pack. Not after everything that happened, but the sick things that Kyren is doing to those people. I just can’t stand it,” she muttered.

“This time I won’t let him get away with just a broken bone; he is going to pay for all the lives he’s taken,” she says with Rygan, who tightens his hold.

Rygan’s eyes were glazed with anger; he recalled how Elise suffered with him, especially the memories of her in the dungeon in his pack, which made the alpha despise himself. What was the difference between him and Kyren when they both locked her up?

“Rygan…”

“I don’t deserve you… I still have regrets and dreams about everything; if I had just come sooner, if I had believed you, then **k, how am I any different?” he mutters. He then holds her hand, wrapping it around his neck. “Even if you want my life, I will gladly give it,” he mutters.

Elise’s eyes water. There was a time when she truly despised even hearing his name, thinking he had joined Kaiden and Alvira in their plans, but most of it was a misunderstanding that brought so much pain and misery. “Well, now it’s too late for that… since you’ve made me love you so much,” she confessed.

Rygan’s eyes glazed with tears as he landed another kiss on the soft parting between her breasts. “I love you, and I live for only you, Elise. I don’t think I can let you go, and I’ll spend the rest of my life atoning for my st**y. Thank you for giving me another chance,” he mutters with a kiss to her shoulder.

“Kyren will pay for everything; I will make sure the **d goes down because I will be by your side through it all,” Elise’s brows raise in surprise.

“You really will head to the Night Territories with me, even though we might have to go there alone?” She asked with a gentle caress to his scarred undereye.

“Of course I would; it would be an honor, and I know this beautiful Luna will be best protected by a powerful personal bodyguard and concubine.”

“Concubine? Do you see yourself as that? You are the alpha of a pack for the moon’s sake,” she muttered with an amused tone.

“Do you want me as a pleasure beast for you, my love? Because I will be exactly what

you want,” he claims with a sensual whisper and licks her nape. This time his touch travels straight to her core.

Elise was feeling more daring tonight as she traced a hand from his lips down to his chest; her eyes darkened with mischief. As she whispers in his ear.

“Then show me how you will please yourself and your queen; you might get a reward if you show me your best,” she moaned with readiness and hunger for him. And Rygan indulged her.

His eyes darkened and narrowed to her lips, biting her lower pillowy lips, which elicited up, and another moan from her. His hand swooped swiftly under her thigh, picked her headed straight to the bed. “Your wish is my command, Luna,” he mutters sensually.

Elise needed this distraction and craved his hands on her, but Rygan was ready to put on a show like she asked for. Ready to seduce her.

Elise crawled to the bedpost, placing herself on the pillows as she watched as Rygan flipped his shirt over his head, showing his chest. Her eyes settled on his large, strong fingers that traced from his abdomen to his waist, and she watched as his pants Hoosened.

She visibly gulped the moment his pants pooled to his feet and her eyes came face to face with his monstrous member; she felt her throat immediately dry up from looking at his heavy length.

She watched as his hands reached to wield his member; his eyes darkened as he watched her frame. It was like an instinct to Elise as she kneeled forward on the bed, slowly undoing her robe, a strip tease just for him.

She lets it pool around the bed; her lace underthings bring a tortured groan to Rygan’s throat as his hands begin to pump on his c**k.

His fingers lined with the juicy head of his c**k, stripping on his pre-c**m, and using it to line the entirety of his length wet, Elise watched the obscene twitch of his c**k. The thought of that being in her made her whimper,

Elise bites back a moan that threatened to come out; she thought she was the one doing the torturing by not letting him touch her, but moons, her body aching with each stroke of his c**k.

She wanted him so much more now; she wanted to feel that heavy length trace her lips. “You know what I love?… I love the way your voice pitches higher and your walls clench around my

my **k when I **k you, the way your body cries and writhes under me, but I know you want more,” he groans out sensually with another pump.

“You see what you do to me? How I’ve ached for you every single day; even just a lick of your lips pulls me into a deeper pleasure; all I want to do is just be buried inside you..agh f**k,” he cursed.

Elise watched wide-eyed as his c***k strains with a pleasured groan as his hand grips tighter to the wooden post of the bed. He lets out a moan as ropes of his c**m spill from his member, unleashing himself in front of Elise.

She wanted nothing more for this man to touch her and taste him, but as she watched his darkened eyes rack up her body, his lips stretched into a smirk as he watched Elise’s chest rise and fall harshly, how her thighs were clasped so hard together to stop her slick from leaking out from how turned-on she was.

“Now I want my reward… It’s my turn to watch you; I want you to touch yourself and c**m, darling.” Elise wondered how she could get better than this.

Because their steamy night had just begun.
