Nelly’s POV.
Two weeks later.
“You're the one | want to spend my life with,” Kex’s voice rang in my head, clear as a bell.
| had heard him say those words two weeks ago, and yet | still didn’t understand what he meant. | had tried to get him to explain, but he always evaded my questions, promising that one day | would understand. But | was tired of waiting. So | gave up?
| pushed the food in front of me to the side, my appetite long gone. | had been using a wheelchair for a week now, and | was beginning to feel stir—crazy. Finally, after a lot of hard work and determination, | was able to walk again.
| would be lying if | said | wasn’t overjoyed. | had almost lost all hope, but Kex, ever the optimist, had never stopped believing in me. He had practiced with me, giving me. hope and encouragement when | felt like giving up. | couldn’t help but think that his mate was one lucky woman.
| pulled my shirt off and headed to the bathroom for a quick shower. Kex had been so busy with pack matters lately, | hadn’t even seen his shadow in days. He had been consumed with matters of the pack.
But | couldn’t help but feel a little neglected. | was worried that our relationship would suffer if he continued to be so consumed by his work. | wanted him to make time for us, don’t blame me if | act like his wife. | finished my shower and toweled off, wondering if | should bring up my concerns with him.
| put on a white gown, one that revealed a bit of cleavage and stopped just above my knees, revealing much of my curves. | applied a light touch of makeup, accentuating my features without trying to look too made-up.
| left my hair down, letting the soft waves fall around my shoulders. If | was going to talk to Kex about my concerns, | wanted to look my best. | wanted to be confident and beautiful.
| walked out of my room, heading towards Kex’s office. But as | passed by, | noticed that his door was slightly ajar. | couldn’t help but peek inside. | saw him sitting at his desk, staring at the files In Front of him, completely absorbed in his work.
He didn’t even notice me as | opened the door wider and stepped into the room. | cleared my throat, but he still didn’t look up. | was beginning to feel a bit irritated. Was |

really so invisible to him? | walked towards him, and reached out to close the file on his desk.
“Kex,” | said, my voice firm. He jolted, clearly startled by my presence. | rolled my eyes, not in the mood for his inattention. “I'm so sorry,” he said, his tone sheepish. “I didn’t even notice you were there.”
| folded my arms across my chest, trying to appear stern.
“I've barely seen you since last night. What’s going on?” He looked at me, a smile. playing at the corners of his lips, and then he burst into laughter.
“What's funny?” | asked, confused.
“I'm sorry for laughing,” he said, though the smile on his face betrayed his words. “But you just acted like Harry’s mom.” | couldn't help but smile at that.
“Stop laughing,” | said, though it was clear | wasn’t really angry.
“Ok, ok,” he said, still chuckling. | couldn’t help but laugh along with him.
“Kex!” | yelled, and he finally stopped laughing, though the smile remained.
“What is it?” he asked. “Can we talk?” | asked, my tone serious again.
He nodded, all traces of laughter gone.
“Are we fighting?” | asked, a hint of worry in my voice.
“Of course not,” he said, his tone reassuring. “What happened?” he asked, and | felt my shoulders relax. “You've barely spent any time with me,” | pouted.
He let out a chuckle, and | found myself smiling in spite of myself. “Why would you ever think | would snub you?” he asked, his hands finding my cheeks and gently caressing them. | sighed, as he pulled me to his laps and wrapped his arms around them.
“| don’t know,” | said, fiddling with the buttons on his shirt. “Zaddy has just been busy with work, don’t get mad at him,” he said, his voice low and husky.
His hands cupped my face, and | felt his breath hot on my lips. | couldn’t help but feel a tingle of excitement, and | noticed my nipples hardening beneath my shirt. It had been a while since we’d sex, and | was beginning to crave him. He stared at me, his gaze
Chapter 79 intense, and | found myself wanting him more and more.
| leaned in to kiss him, and his lips met mine in a soft, tender kiss. But as the kiss deepened, it became more intense, more passionate. | found myself moaning into his. mouth, and he responded in kind.
Finally, he pulled away, leaving me breathless. But he wasn’t done with me yet. He began to kiss my neck, his mouth ho
on my skin. | let out a giggle, the sensation tickling me, and he chuckled softly in response. | felt a heat rising within me, a need growing inside me..
Suddenly, there was a knock at the door, and | let out a groan of frustration. Kex’s kisses. stopped, and he called out, “Who's there?”
“There’s a message for you, Alpha,” came the voice from the other side of the door.
“Come back later, I’m busy!” Kex said, his voice firm as he resumed his kisses on my neck.
But the voice persisted, “It’s important, your highness.”
Kex sighed, and called out, “Fine, come in.”
| began to stand up, but he pulled me back into his lap, a smirk on his face. | raised an eyebrow.
The door flew open, and a guard walked in. He bowed before handing a letter to Kex. “That will be all,” Kex said, dismissing the guard.
The door closed, and the two of us were left alone again. Kex’s face grew serious as he opened the letter and began reading it. | felt a twinge of anxiety, wondering what news. it might bring.
“What is it?” | asked, my voice tinged with curiosity and worry. Kex turned to me, hist expression grave.
“It's not something serious,” he said, breaking the tension a little. “Just some joint Alpha meetings.” But his face still looked serious. | tilted my head, my gaze searching for his.
“Then why the frown?” | asked, puzzled. His gaze softened as he met my eyes.
“It's just that... whenever there’s an Alpha’s party, | have to come with a plus one,” he explained. “And | want that plus one to be you.” Asmile spread across my face. “You know I'd follow you anywhere,” | replied. “No! Don’t come,” he said, his voice hard and cold.

“It's nothing,” he said, his voice sounding strained. “I just... it’s nothing.”Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
But | knew him better than that. Something was clearly bothering him.
“Kex,” | said, “Am | looking so bad that you are ashamed to tell me?”
“Never! It’s just that... Astel will be there,” he said, his voice cold.
