323 The Candlelight Dinner

Ronan did not know if he should cry or laugh at the situation.

He was the one who paid for the whole trip but everyone was having fun without him. Never in his life had he encountered such blatant betrayal.

Whether it was by fellow pack members or by his peers or other werewolves, he had always been treated with the utmost respect.

And now this new Alpha who was still green behind the ears dared to ruin things for him! And why, why must Lucien go with them???

Did he not care for Ronan anymore???

Was Annalynne going to take the first place in Lucien’s heart forever???

Arrrrghhghhhhh!!!

The Alpha wanted to do something drastic such as jumping into the ocean and scaring fishes away or something.

But no, that was not a good idea.

.....

He needed to vent his frustration in a different way.

Ronan took off his bathrobe. He decided to walk outside to cool his head inside the swimming pool.

The orange color of the setting sun was reflected in the gently rippling water surface. It almost looked like it was on fire.

When Ronan looked further, he could see the vast ocean that the cruise ship was sailing across.

Its wavy surface also reflected the same color.

The night air was indescribably fresh and it carried a salty scent.

Ronan sucked in a lungful of fresh air.

His sour mood was soothed by the serene surroundings. A swim would indeed be great.

Once Ronan approached the pool, he noticed that some things had changed.

There were a few scented candles on the deck floor with rose petals scattered around them.

The scented candles led him to a decked table for two, located just next to the balcony with the amazing ocean view in the late afternoon.

Two tall candles were lit in the middle of two big plates complete with cutleries next to them.

“...”

What was this?

A candlelight dinner setup? 𝒇𝘳ℯℯ𝚠𝙚𝑏𝗻𝑜ѵ𝑒𝙡.co𝑚

Ronan’s throat went dry.

“You are out.”

Startled by the sudden voice behind him, Ronan almost cracked his neck when he turned around.

His mate stood at the opposite side of the pool with a bright smile lacing his lips. He already changed into a simple T-shirt and a pair of short jeans for the evening.

“Are you done with your work?”

Ronan did not know what to respond with.

What work?

All he did inside was play online games while waiting for Lucien to come and coax him!

When Lucien didn’t come soon enough, he was busy googling for ways to get rid of Annalynne and Lowell during the trip.

“Ahem. Yes,” the Alpha shamelessly lied.

Lucien chuckled.

The Alpha was only wearing tight pants that underlined his shapely butts and thighs. His torso was engraved with mermaid lines. The muscles in his stomach formed a six-pack that invited Lucien to come and feel it. The two deep trenches that extended from his waist and disappeared into his pants made Lucien swallow hard.

He closed the distance between them and put his hands along Ronan’s toned, sexy body. The man was radiating the kind of warmth that threatened to melt everyone who dared to come close and have a taste.

Lucien had fallen victim so many times, but he always came back for more.

And his scent...

Lucien’s hands slid to Ronan’s back. He leaned against his mate’s shoulder and closed his eyes while taking a deep breath.

He smelled so good.

Ronan enjoyed the attention immensely. He ran his hands around Lucien’s body before locking him in a tight embrace. The Alpha then tilted his head to the side and kissed his mate on the lips.

“Hmm...”

“I thought you left me alone,” Ronan said in a childish protest.

He should have known better. His Lulu loved him the most. He would never pick Annalynne over him. Right? Right???

Lucien broke into a smile.

He hooked his arms around Ronan’s neck and pulled him in for another kiss.

“Shut up and kiss me, Alpha,” he commanded.

“Yes, Luna.” fre𝙚𝓌𝒆𝚋noѵel.c𝚘m

They fell into another round of kissing.

Ronan was an only child. He was easy to handle.

He didn’t know what sibling rivalry looked like.

Lucien and Annalynne had always been close, but that didn’t mean that they willingly and openly shared everything.

Since they were children, Annalynne had always been selfish. Maybe because she was the girl, so she thought that she must get all the attention.

Or maybe because as they grew up, people often paid more attention to Lucien. Lucien was the next Alpha, Lucien was the precious heir, blah blah blah.

Annalynne did love her brother, but she hated having to stand in the background while Lucien received all the praises and headpats that she too longed to have.

When Lucien took the role to be the elder brother among them and coddled Annalynne more than everyone else, it naturally made the twin sister very happy.

The whole world could love Lucien, but Lucien loved her and her alone. That was an idea that Annalynne could live with.

And that was why she disliked Ronan.

Ronan was a nuisance.

Besides, Ronan hurt Lucien so many times.

By right, Lucien should leave Ronan.

What Annalynne didn’t think of was that even if it weren’t Ronan, there would be someone else.

She herself finally found love, so why couldn’t Lucien do the same?

Lucien promised to always be her big brother, but he also wanted to fulfill other roles. Such as becoming Ronan’s mate and the Luna of his pack among others.

This was something that Annalynne had to come to terms with.

After all, Lucien was going to leave the Silent Walkers Pack soon. Their interactions would diminish further. One was a Luna and the other was an Alpha.

“So, where are they?” Ronan asked, pulling Lucien out of his deep thoughts.

He naturally referred to the two people that had been intruding into their romantic vacation.

“I sent them away to have dinner in the fancy restaurant.”

“Oh. Then this setup...”

The Alpha dumbly pointed at the decked table. He knew the answer to his incomplete question, but he was too insecure to assume that it was true.

Lucien squeezed Ronan’s jaw lovingly.

“I am inviting you to dinner, Alpha.”
