Alpha King’s pregnant Ex-Luna

After a moment of contemplation, Thalia’s eyes widened in surprise as she looked at him. “A-Are you already in love?”

Tony took a deep breath, his eyes narrowing with a warning glare. “Keep this up and I’ll make you regret this.”

Thalia quickly sealed her lips shut, not daring to speak another word.

As she fell silent, Tony continued to reply to the message, while Thalia discreetly glanced over to see what they were chatting about.

In the late hours of the night, the nurses on the night shift were so exhausted that they slumped over their desks, catching a quick nap.

At the same time, a figure emerged from the dark corridor, moving stealthily like a ghost.Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.

Just as he was about to reach Nelly’s ward, someone tapped his shoulder, causing him to spin around defensively, pressing a dagger against the intruder’s chest. However, his surprise turned to confusion when he saw who it was.

Lara stared fearfully at him, pointing to the surveillance cameras above them, trying to maintain a calm facade.

In the quiet corridor, the man’s eyes bore into Lara with a menacing glare.

Lara met his gaze, her voice trembling. “It’s really you…”

He remained silent.

“Did you cause the car accident?” Lara asked, her voice quivering.

Nonchalantly, the man replied, “It’s none of your business.”

“Are you planning to kill Nelly now?”

His silence spoke volumes as his gaze locked onto her.

“In any case, do you know there’s someone inside?” Lara questioned.

“Inside? Who?”

“Alpha Kilian Morris.”

The news made the man’s eyes narrow. “Good. In that case, I’ll kill him too.”

Lara was shocked by his response. “You promised me you wouldn’t harm him!”

“I might have promised, but after what happened last time, I’ll kill anyone who gets in my way,” the man vowed, his voice oozing with menace.

His words sent a shiver down Lara’s spine. However, she couldn’t risk Alpha Kilian’s life.

After a moment of thought, she proposed, “Tomorrow night, I’ll get Alpha Kilian to come out.”

The man looked at her with surprise.

“He’s innocent,” Lara added.

With an insidious smile, the man replied, “Fine, since you’ve helped me today, I’ll give you a chance. If he’s still here tomorrow, I won’t show him any mercy.” After giving her a suspicious glance, the man turned and disappeared into the shadows.

As Lara watched him leave, her heart pounded in her chest, her fists clenched tightly.

It was her first encounter with a murderer, and the fear coursing through her was palpable.

Only when he was out of sight did she finally feel her legs give way, leaning against the railing as she took a moment to calm herself.

Suddenly, Caroline appeared from the corridor, approaching Lara with concern. “Lara, what are you doing here at this hour?”

Lara shook her head. “Nothing. I just needed some fresh air.”

Caroline studied her, noticing her pale complexion. “Why do you look so unwell? Did something happen?”

Again, Lara shook her head. “Not really. I’m just tired.”

Caroline scrutinized her from head to toe. “You’re too thin. How are you going to recover quickly? Come, let’s go back and rest.” She gently guided Lara back towards the ward.

On their way, Lara couldn’t help but think about what had just transpired. Unable to resist her curiosity, she blurted out, “Mom, have you ever encountered a murderer? What does it feel like to take a life?”

Taken aback, Caroline turned to look at her. “What on earth are you talking about?”

Lara quickly shook her head. “Never mind. I was just speaking nonsense.”

Furrowing her brow, Caroline gave Lara a worried glance.

The night passed without incident.

The next morning, Alpha Kilian awoke to find Nelly missing and panicked, rushing out only to see everyone gathered at the entrance.

“Donna!” Donna exclaimed happily upon spotting him.

Relieved to find Nelly unharmed, a gentle expression crossed Alpha Kilian’s face as he saw Donna and Ben.

“Donna, you’re here!”

“Mm-hmm, I’m here with Great-grandpa to bring Mommy her breakfast,” Donna replied.

Alpha Kilian crouched down in front of Donna, his heart swelling with affection at her adorable presence.

Meanwhile, Caroline, who had been observing from the sidelines, was utterly petrified by the scene unfolding before her.
