The War God Alpha’s Arranged Bride Novel

---- Chapter 182 [Third-Person's POV] Poor Alexander was certain he was going to give himself emotional whiplash. He'd gone from true panic over Evelyn's panic attack that rendered her literally unconscious to now having every ounce of heat in his body directed to one specific place. His pants grew increasingly tight around him upon hearing her confession. His heart thrummed in his chest while his heart swelled with pride. Thank God, Michael hadn't found a way to sabotage his life in that aspect. He'd hurt Evelyn in ways that were going to take a long time to overcome, if ever.

Alexander was prepared to be by her side and help her battle through the dark traumatic memories that were taunting her. But to hear that it helped her when he touched her...It stirred something profound as well as primal within him. Alexander gazed down at his Luna with deep admiration. "It helps when | touch you," he reiterated. "Like this?" He tilted his chin down, gesturing to the way in which he was currently holding close to his side. ---- Evelyn's cheeks turned a deeper shade of pink for his feigned ignorance. Of course, he knew what she was referring to.

Alexander was merely trying to get her used to voicing her desires. He was ready and willing to give in to every single one of them. Day or night, he'd give into her needs and make her come undone at the very seams. All she needs to do is tell me what she wants and it's hers. "You know that's not what | mean," Evelyn mumbled. He raised a single brow and gave her a tentative look. "Perhaps... But why don't you try and explain it to me?" he pressed lightly. She narrowed her eyes at him. "Stop teasing me." Alexander let out a low chuckle that spread dozens of goosebumps over her body.

"I'm not teasing," he claimed. Alexander started to shift himself on the bed. He pulled back till he was fully propped up and looking down at her. "What I'm trying to do is get you to be more open about your desires. | want to know what you like and what you want to try." ---- "Everything," she said breathlessly. Fucking hell... This woman is bent on sending me to an early grave. It was too much for his mind to wrap around. 'Everything'. How could she think to say that when they both knew her body needed to recover from the previous night's events? Who was teasing who now?

He couldn't stop his boyish smile. "As much as | love the enthusiasm, I'm going to need a little more specification, sweetheart." Evelyn's face reddened from the thoughts that were coursing through her mind. "L-Like last night," she muttered quietly. Alexander hummed as he reached down to cup her cheek, lazily dragging the pad of his thumb over her lips. His eyes darkened with growing arousal. "You liked the way | felt inside of you." It wasn't so much of a question as it was a statement. He noticed the way her breathing was becoming hitched as she nodded. "Yeah?

Do you have any idea how beautiful you looked falling apart beneath me? Feel what it does to me." He pressed his hips into Evelyn's side, making her feel his apparent hardness. Her lips trembled open and he caught a ---- glimpse of her little pink tongue. "Alexander..." "You're not fully healed from last night-" "| can take it," she said firmly. The corner of his mouth twitched. "No, you will not.

| refuse to prolong your need to heal over my body's inability to stay calm and collected around you." He leaned down to press a longing kiss to her lips and marked his way down the base of her neck. "But that's not to say that I'm not amiable to do other things," he hinted with a devious grin. "Do you trust me?" "Yes?" He swiftly picked up on the nervous hint in her voice. He could handle a little bit of tension but what he wasn't going to stand for was uncertainty. Alexander was determined to make Evelyn see and feel like the gorgeous creature she was.
