Chapter 129: Confession Under Torture

She felt herself melting into the sensation, her body responding to Ryder’s gentle caress. "Do you know how much I crave you?" he whispered, his voice deeper than before.

A chill traced down her spine as a soft moan escaped her lips. "Yes," she responded, her voice dripping in a sultry whisper.

Ryder groaned, his breath coming in short gasps. "You don’t," he moaned. "I’ve craved you for lifetimes, my Luna. I waited centuries for you...and then, he stole you from me."

Reana didn’t understand what he was talking about, and she was too caught up in the moment to care.

Ryder’s words were a jumbled mix of passion and pain, but his tone was unmistakable. He was speaking from a place of deep emotion, a place of longing and loss.

Reana’s heart ached with a sense of connection, her own emotions stirred by Ryder’s words. She felt a sense of recognition, as if she too had been searching for something, or someone, for a very long time.

His finger trailed up and down her shoulder, the sensation electrifying her spine.

"Lifetimes, I fought for us." He continued in whispers, "Every day without you, every memory of each life was a reminder of what we had, and what we lost."

Ryder’s words were a gentle caress, soothing and calming, yet sparking a fire within Reana. She felt a rush of emotions, her senses heightened as she struggled to understand the depth of Ryder’s feelings.

She locked eyes with him, but as his finger continued to trail up and down her shoulder, Reana couldn’t focus.

Her heart ached with a sense of connection, her own emotions stirred by Ryder’s words. She felt a sense of recognition, as if she too had been searching for something, or someone, for a very long time.

"I love you so much, Reana." His finger trailed up to her lips, "I’ve loved you from the moment I set my eyes on you." His already darkened eyes glowed with an intensity that seemed to pierce right through Reana’s soul.

His gaze was mesmerizing, drawing her in with an otherworldly allure. As Ryder’s finger touched her lips, Reana felt a jolt of electricity run through her body. His words were a gentle whisper, yet they carried a weight that seemed to shake the very foundations of her being.

"No one, nothing will take you away from me. Nothing, Reana." He paused, tilting his head to the side as if to take in the expression on her face. "Do you understand?"

The air around her seemed to vibrate with tension, the atmosphere charged with an almost palpable sense of desire.

Her body reacted before she could stop it, as her head bobbed.

And in that moment, she knew that she was lost, utterly and completely, in the depths of Ryder’s love.

His lips curled as his finger paused on her lips. Then, he pulled away.

The sudden absence of Ryder’s touch left Reana feeling bereft, as if a part of her had been torn away. She felt a pang of disappointment, panic, and a sense of loss that seemed to echo through her very being.

Her eyes followed his movements, her senses heightened as she waited with bated breath to see what he would do next.

Ryder’s lips, still curled into a gentle smile, seemed to hold a secret, a promise of things to come. And then, without breaking eye contact, Ryder’s hands moved to his waist band.

The slow, deliberate movements seemed to draw out the moment, building the tension between them to a fever pitch.

Reana’s heart skipped a beat as she realized what was happening, her senses coming alive. He tugged it off, coming bare before her.

Her breath hitched, her core tingling as the wetness pooled around her deep, aware of what was to come.

He joined her on the bed, his breath hot against her skin, his body tense with desire. Reana’s senses were overwhelmed by the intensity of the moment, her mind reeling from his confession and the overwhelming load of anticipation.

But before she could ask for relief, Ryder’s lips claimed hers once more, his kiss deep and possessive. The world around her melted away, leaving only the sensation of Ryder’s touch, and the aching sense of connection that seemed to bind them together.

...

"How many in total?" the masked man asked.

"Plus the new recruit, we have six thousand pack members," Gideon responded.

"Not enough," the masked man shook his head. "Go out and find more–" he halted when a wave of heat slammed into him.

He groaned and stumbled slightly.

This was the second time he was feeling this intense heat out of nowhere. He hated it.

Hissing out of annoyance, his gaze roamed over the she-wolves standing before him with heads bowed. And he moved forward.

The air seemed to vibrate with tension as the masked man approached the she-wolves.

His movements were fluid, his stride long and purposeful. Gideon’s eyes followed him, a mixture of curiosity and wariness etched on his face.

The she-wolves, however, remained still, their heads bowed in submission. The masked man’s gaze roamed over them, his eyes lingering on each one as if searching for something. His footsteps were the only sound in the silence, a steady beat that seemed to match the pounding of Gideon’s heart.

As the masked man reached the she-wolves, he stopped in front of them. "Lift your heads," he ordered.

The she-wolves didn’t dare to disobey. They all lifted her heads, slowly but didn’t dare to meet his gaze.

They were all rogues, leaving as unwanted wolves, stealing, killing, or running into monsters that would in the end, tear them apart. Until they met someone, who promised them a home, a pack.

But when they arrived, they found it was just a start-up pack. Some of them, especially the men, thought they could rebel, but this heartless masked man, the Alpha, had crushed them to death. With his bare hands, he tore them apart, even as they changed into their wolf forms.

So, how could the rest of them not be scared?

The masked man’s gaze roamed over the she-wolves, his eyes lingering on each one as if searching for something. The air was thick with tension, the silence heavy with fear and dread...
