Chapter 151: Trouble
She stood before him. But instead of answering, she yanked his collar down and Ryder instinctively leaned forward, going for her lips, but suddenly, her face veered from his line of sight, towards his neck and then... pain.
Reana sank her teeth into his neck!
Gasp!
The sound escaped Ophilia’s lips before she could stop herself, her eyes wide with horror, forgetting to breathe, forgetting to react as she stared at them.
Ryder’s lips broke into the sweetest smile he could ever produce. His arms wrapped around her waist, holding her close. The pain was nothing to Ryder, it couldn’t even draw a grimace from him. Instead, he felt tickled. And he chuckled.
Ryder pulled away, the anger in her eyes hadn’t dissipated even a little, but Ryder could see the possessiveness and passion behind her gaze. He knew that omega had pushed her buttons, and Reana was marking her territory.
The omega didn’t seem so repulsive now. Ryder shifted her gaze, meeting her eyes, his smile still plastered on his face.
For a moment, they just stared at each other, Ophilia’s face pale, and Ryder’s eyes sparkling with amusement. Thanks to her, his Luna has marked him, even though the marking has no spiritual significance - it would be erased once it healed. Unlike the man marking the woman.
"You’re still staring at her? Do you like her?" Reana snapped, her voice low and menacing.
Ryder’s gaze returned to Reana, his smile doting and endearing. He lifted his hand and gently began to stroke her hair, his voice soothing. "I dare not, My Luna." He chuckled when she glared at him.
He leaned down, forehead resting on her, hot breath fanning each other’s faces, then he said, "Besides, I’m all yours. No woman under the sun and above the sky is worthy of taking your place."
