THE ALPHA’S DAUGHTER 51_When The Moon Hides Her Crown

Chapter 51 Seductress

 SERAPHINA

 He would do exactly what I thought? The only thought that came to my mind was his manhood pressing against my belly and what could happen between us. The hard pressure of his arousal pressed low against my belly, burning through the thinyers of cloth between us. My wolf and I felt the same heat for a fleeting moment from his arousal before I realised what was going on.

 My breath caught violently. No.

 Panic surged up my spine, cold and feral. His confession about his heart. His closeness. His touch. All of it blurred into something dangerous, something I couldn’t afford to acknowledge let alone feel.

 This wasn’t supposed to happen.

 This wasn’t allowed to happen.

 I thrashed against his grip, every instinct in me screaming to get away. With an effort that felt like I was moving through at swamp, I yanked one hand free and shoved it against his chest–right where his heart had dared to race for me.

 “Don’t y with me!” I snapped, my voice sharp and louder than I intended, covering the tremble in my limbs with fire. He nced at my hand and then back to me, “I don’t care what’s happening to your body or to your heart–none of it is my fault. I’m not the cause of whatever chaos you’re drowning in.” I couldn’t look down at his hardness. Not at the heat still pressing against me. Not at the raw need I could feel pulsing through him.

 So I only looked into his eyes, at the wolf hiding behind them.

 “I’m not here to be an Alpha’s release if they went into rut,” I hissed, indicating his hardness that he med me for, “I’m not here to be imed, used, or devoured just because you’ve uncovered something I didn’t want to share.”

 My breath heaved. I wanted to step back, to make the space between us but there was the door behind me.

 -Unfortunately, the information you did not want to share came into my hands,” he murmured, loosening his grip on my pinned wrist, “Shouldn’t you be soft with me instead of hissing and growling at me? You already caused me enough emotional damage by lying, ying and then discarding me, what if I get angry?”

 My heartbeat quickened, picking up the meaning behind his remark.

 “So you are finally threatening me to expose my secret if I do not obey you?” I growled, barely containing my rage while also trembling. I knew this wasing, “Then go ahead. Expose me,” I dered, confidently meeting his gaze.

 His eyes narrowed, “Did I not just say that I want all of you for myself? I would not…”

 “And what makes you think you can decide to have all of me for yourself?” I raised an eyebrow, “There is no way you can have your way with me, Alpha Ronan, you know my secret and that’s the only thing you have to use against me. But just now you said that you would not and want me for yourself but let me tell you something. Without exposing me you will never rip off this disguise and never bring the Seraphina out…” I freed my other hand too and put both of my hands on his chest and gave a slight push sessfully gaining space. “Alpha Ronan you will never get the chance to see Seraphina in this lifetime….

 Saying that, I turned the knob and strode out of the room with quick steps.

 Unknown to me back in the room, Ronan who was supposed to have his ego seriously bruised had a small smile ying on his lips as he nced at his bulge and put a hand over his smiling lips. “Never going to see Seraphina in this lifetime!” he echoed softly, his grin widening. “What a seductress.”

 I didn’t stop until the grand training grounds came into view

 My heart still thundered from everything Ronan had said. From everything I felt.

 Thete afternoon sun bathed the arena in golden light, but there was no warmth in my bones. Only a crawling unease.

 As I neared the center, I spotted then–Finn, Asher, and Dante–sitting still under the shed, I straightened my posture and forord the emotion from my face.

 “Seth.” Finn was the first to notice me. He gave a grin, “it’s good you are back. Alpha Instructor must being.

 I nodded.

 Asher, his arms crossed and expression unreadable, barely nced my way.

 Dante, though.. Dante’s gaze hit me like a de.

 There was no greeting in his eyes. Only a sharp flicker of displeasure. What was wrong with him? What was that look supposed to mean? He wasn’t looking at me, exactly. No. his gaze shifted past me, over my shoulder, narrowing in suspicion. and something darker.

 That’s when I realised that someone wasing from a distance behind me.

 Ronan

 Dante’s eyes hardened. His nostrils red subtly, almost imperceptibly, but I saw the shift in his jaw. The silent judgment. He wasn’t just looking at me, he was sensing.

 Unknown to me his eyes flicked to my flushed ears. He had also picked up on Ronan’s scenting from me.

 Then he turned slowly towards me, his gaze never looking away.

 I remained silent and casual, never looking at him or Ronan. 

 Before the tension could thicken any further, three shadows fell over us.

 Alpha Gideon, broad andmanding as always, strode toward us with Alpha Hugo and Alpha Jude nking him. We all stood up and faced them. Finally they were here.

 “All five of you,” Gideon said, his voice firm and deliberate, stopping before us. “It’s good you are all together.”

 I swallowed, shoulders squared. Whatever this was, it wasn’t casual. We were obviously not called here for my expulsion because Ronan had not revealed anything so what could be the reason?

 “You’re probably wondering why the instructors summoned you,” Gideon continued, eyes scanning each of us–Ronan, Finn, Asher, Dante, and finally me. “It’s not just to re or give lectures.”

 Behind him, Hugo raised an eyebrow. Jude looked vaguely amused.

 “The trial is reaching its peak,” Gideon said, voice tightening. “The rankings are going to shift drastically starting today. Those who seed in this next phase may earn a ce that is going to head into some important stage.”

 I blinked.

 Important stage?! What did that mean? 

 “But His gaze darkened. “You five have been barred. Because of your previous offenses, you’ve been excluded from participating in several core trials. And under the current rules, you wouldn’t qualify for today’s trial at all.”

 Silence dropped like a hammer. And everyone tensed.

 “However,” Alpha Jude finally said, stepping forward with a slight smirk, “the instructors believe that redemption should not be out of reach, if you’re willing to prove that you’ve learned from your mistakes.”

 Asher’s brow twitched like Finn. Konan renamed still like Dante, unreadable.

 I kept my eyes ahead, heart thudding

 Gideon nodded to Jude, then looked back at us. “If you want to get back into this race, you have to prove 

 The words hit harder than expected.

 “We’re giving you one chance,” Alpha Hugo revealed, “all of you will be on one team. One trial. To show that you can follow the rules, work as a unit, and rise beyond your egos”

 My stomach dropped. Did he just say….

 “Teamwork Finn asked aloud, mirroring everyone’s thoughts

 “Yes,” Alpha Hugo confirmed, lips twitching in amusement. “All five of you. Together. If any of you fail, the others will fail as well.”

 The ground slipped out from under my feet. Wait, did that mean I had to work with both Dante and Ronan?!
