The Alpha King’s Possession

37. A Diamond Ring

MORGANA

His words made heat travel through my body. As much as I hated him, I couldn’t deny that he held an incredible pull over me. He knew it too, just how I knew I had a hold on him. It was a two-way thing. Riddled with our egos, our emotions, this bond and our hatred, we were stuck i n this constant battle of wills and desire.

It threw me off knowing he had told Sage he wanted me. He was openly admitting to what he desired. I didn’t understand him at all. He was cold, yet hot. He was a jerk, yet at times he could be… dare I admit it, charming. I hated him, yet I wanted to be in his arms.

I wanted to see the darkness in him, yet I wanted to be his dirtiest fantasy too. He consumed me like an addiction I should never have tasted, one I couldn’t refuse. 1

His lips met my neck once more and I bit my lip. My core throbbing. His hand around my throat tightened for a second and I was very aware of his cock against my ass.

If he wasn’t so damn sexy, I had a feeling I might have succeeded in killing him already. His strong arms wrapped around my waist and for a moment neither of us moved, I closed my eyes, relaxing into his hold. A dangerous move. If he wanted me dead, I’d be dead, but then again, he has had many chances to kill me.

“Dare I ask how Sage took it?” I asked, his lips grazing my neck.

“As expected, but I made it clear we are done.” He said, now moving away from me. He turned me towards him, frowning. “I will be announcing you as my queen at the summit today… and I will introduce you at the dinner tonight…”

He looked away, I knew he was conflicted about something.

“What is it?” I asked, resisting the urge to cup his face.

He looked at me and sighed.
