Another Chance for the Luna Queen novel

Chapter 0250 Why should I be embarrassed ? Alexander was my husband This was exactly the kind of behavior expected of newlyweds , wasnt it ? Drunk , giggling , and falling all over each other even in public .

I couldnt have planned it better if I tried .

But this wasnt a stunt .

This was genuine .

Wed had a wonderful day together , and this felt like the natural culmination .

Everything with Alexander had felt so natural lately so normal and right .

Id never known this kind of contentment with anyone in the original timeline .

This felt like a dream compared to the nightmare Id lived through before .

It was absurd , and wanted to laugh .

Whats so funny ? Alexander asked as the two of us stumbled toward the car .

Nothings funny , I replied , my voice sounding a little too loud to my own ears .

Im just having a great time .

Oh yeah ? he said , sounding surprised .

Am I a great time I cant think of how the night couldve gone better , I said Who knew racing was so exciting ? And dinner was great , plus Ive got a lot of very good alcohol in my system .

d say that qualifies as a great time .

I can think of one way we could make it better , Alexander said , smirking at me .

Irolled my eyes but didnt shy away from his suggestive comment .

Instead , I replied , You sound confident that youd be great .

Wasnt I before ? he asked , raising an eyebrow .

I shrugged nonchalantly no easy feat with his arms still around me .

Who can say ? You can , Alexander replied .

You were there .

Did you think it was great ? I dont think I can judge based on that , I teased .

I wasnt in my right mind .

Maybe I dont even remember clearly .

Maybe well need to recreate it so I can decide .

Alexander paused as we approached the car , his eyes widening in surprise .

I giggled , thrilled to have wiped the smug smirk off his face .

Stepping forward , I opened the car door for him .

What are you waiting for , Mr.

Black ? I said , motioning toward the car .

I think its about time you took your bride home for the evening .

Be careful , Alexander said in a low tone , his voice laced with warning .

Dont take your joking too far .

He got into the car and allowed me to climb in after him .

I closed the door and glanced at him as he settled in .

Maybe I was taking things too far .

Maybe I shouldnt tease him like this .

But at the moment , I was giddy and amused with myself .

I was getting under his skin something not many people could say about Alexander Black .

From the way his eyes were fixed on me , I could tell my comment had gotten a rise out of him .

The feeling was intoxicating , even more so than the champagne .

I wanted to tease him more , to see how far I could push it .

Sober , I would have thought better of it .

But now ? I couldnt see the downside .

What makes you think Im joking ? I asked , my voice light but deliberately provoking .

Are you serious ? I could be , I replied , tilting my head slightly .

You wouldnt be able to tell the difference .

+25 BONUS Chapter 0250 You think I cant read you ? I think you dont know as much about me as you believe you do , I said , meeting his gaze steadily .

That sounds like a challenge , Alexander said , his tone low as he gave me another warning look .

Would you shrink away from a challenge ? I asked , my lips curving into a slight smile .

Alexander stared at me , a calculating look in his eyes , I held his gaze , my heart pounding as I waited for his response .

Would he play along ? Or would he back down ? I couldnt imagine Alexander Black backing down from anything .

A thrill of anticipation surged through me as I imagined what his reaction might be .
