BookAmazoneChapter Fifty Four Chapter Fifty Four I rolled over on the bed-wait. Bed? My eyes snapped open.
"Alexander?" I called, but there was no one in the room. Just then, the door creaked open, and a familiar scent filled the air. His scent. "Alexander!” I called again, and finally, he appeared before me.

"Yes, I am." I pulled off the covers and rose to my feet. A sudden dizziness overcme, and I lost my balance. Before I could fall, Alexander caught me. The tray still remained in his other hand.
"You should rest smore and eat too." He said, leadingback to the bed. I accepted the tray of food. "I am glad you are awake; the past two days were not very exciting. I spent the last forty-eight hours worrying myself to near death." I had been asleep for two days? "You were worried... about me?" "You are my mate, and Luna, I wouldn't want you dead." He said.
All the memories resurfaced: we had attended the wedding ceremony and were poisoned with wolf's bane. "Your eyes they had turned a different color." "Kaida, you've been unconscious for two days; you need to eat." "No. I know what I saw; your eyes were the colors of burning flames-I saw it." "Con, it doesn't even sound realistic; don't be ridiculous. " "But it happened, and you were poisoned too... but it didn't affect you.” "I had been adding a small portion of wolf's bane to my drinks, and I happen to be a drunk, so I've been consuming wolfbane for a long tnow." It clicked.
"That's why you wouldn't lettake that bottle of wine; it wasn't because it was too 'strong' for me, was it?" "It is actually, but also, it did contain a little bit of wolfsbane, and we can't have you drinking yourself to death." "But... why? I mean, why conswolf's bane?" I was glad we were able to get out of the Gray Pack alive, but... wolf's bane was any werewolf's worst fear, I wondered why anyone would willingly take it? Was it skind of self-torture? "To build an immunity to it. When I started, I hated it, but now, I've gotten a bit 'addicted' to it. I should have noticed the drinks were poisoned, but the taste of wolfsbane in fresh wine had gotten so usual that I thought it was normal." "How long have you been trying to build immunity to it?" +25 BONUS Chapter Fifty Four "Over a decade. I'm not immune to it yet, but my body can handle it better than most would." "You were just a boy when you started taking the 'doses,"" said. Despite myself, I felt pity for him. I looked away before he could read it in my eyes.

"The world is not a kind place, not even for a boy, I becthe Alpha King at the age of fifteen. Taking the crown was a risk; I was always a target. I was forced to learn the hard way, so it was... necessary." He passedmy dagger. It was the very one I had thrown at Grayson.
"How did you get it back?" "It was lying on the floor; it was no hard task.' "You know what I mean."
"I know what you mean. And I think think you should eat. We wil talk later."
Later never came. Alexander was mostly too busy to talk about what happened that night, but I was goi I going to find out. I knew what I saw; his I eyes... they glowed, and I hadn't been imagining it. Today's Bonus Offer 0
