His Rogue Luna novel Chapter 72

"I've never been with a wolf before," The double meaning behind his words was not lost on me so I gave him an unimpressed look.

"I doubt tonight will be your first," I quipped back. He raised his brow at me, pursing his lips for a second before giving me a larger and cockier smirk. His grin and creepy eyes reminded me so much of a snake.

"So fiesty. Is it all bark and no bite?" He taunted.

"Trust me I bite. Hard," He leaned down, his lips brushing my ear as he whispered.

"What will it take to get you to ditch your mate?" I was disgusted by his words, stopping in the middle of the dance and pulling free immediately.

"Nothing. I would never do that," I hissed. Diplomacy be damned, no one could question my loyalty to my mate.

"Not even for one night?" I didn't answer verbally, just growled lowly at him. I felt my eyes glow gold and he thankfully got the hint and shut up. Unfortunately though, his smug look returned once more.

"Your loyalty is admirable but do you think your mate will return the sentiment?" I didn't like the look he was giving me but no matter what, I trusted Kieran.

"Without a doubt," I stated confidently. "Now if you'll excuse me," I stepped off the dance floor and grabbed the first champagne glass that went past me and chugged it down. Setting the glass back down on another passing tray, I ambled my way through the crowd, trying to locate Kieran.

He still wasn't answering his mind link and I was growing worried. Although I caught a glimpse of him perfectly fine, there had to be a reason why I couldn't access his mind.

Surely he wouldn't block me right?

People stopping me on the way were beginning to frustrate me. I tried to remain polite and excuse myself as gracefully as I could when in all honesty, I felt something was off. I had to squish down my worried thoughts because panicking wouldn't do me well.

I tried accessing his mind once again but I came up short. Instead I traced his mental signature and walked out of the ballroom through a side door. The cool gust of air that greeted me made me shiver, despite the cold not having any real effect on my werewolf heat.

I heard voices, quiet murmuring and I followed it, the sounds leading me towards Kieran.

The large garden had several trees and bushes, all with different types of flowers. The sweet smell of them in the air was inticing but I was way too nervous to enjoy anything at that moment.

I found myself walking towards a spot, hidden by the trees. The darkness of the moonless night and the large trees obscuring the bench almost made me miss it, but the undeniable scent of Kieran and someone else had me walking towards it.

It was startling what I was witnessing.

The first thing I realised was the woman was the same one from that first night we came to Romania. She had been blatantly flirting with my mate, right before my very eyes. Her long black tresses were tangled, Kieran's hand fisted in them.
