Alpha King Chases Abandoned Luna novel Chapter 354

(Ethan's POV)

"Liv, I beg you, don't give Lucas a chance, don't be with him, give me another chance, okay?" I softened my tone, humbling myself before her.

My wolf whined pitifully inside me. The arrogant Alpha I once was had disappeared the moment I discovered she was my Little Orange. Pride meant nothing now. All that mattered was keeping her from Lucas Blackwood.

"Please, Liv," I whispered, my voice breaking. "I'll do anything."

Olivia stared at me with those emerald eyes that once held such warmth. Now they were cold, distant—looking at me like I was a stranger.

"Anything?" she repeated, her voice hollow. "Can you bring Lily back?"

The question hit me like a physical blow. I had no answer that could satisfy her.

"I can't bring her back," I admitted, my voice thick with regret. "But I can spend the rest of my life making it up to you. Please, Liv."

I dropped to my knees before her, something no Alpha would ever do. My wolf howled in distress, but I silenced it. Nothing mattered except winning her back.

"Hit me," I begged, taking her hand. "Scold me, punish me however you want. Just don't reject me."

I pressed her palm against my cheek, then used it to slap myself hard across the face. Again and again, I struck myself with her hand until her palm was red and stinging.

Despite the pain, I gently brought her hand to my lips and blew on it softly. "I'm sorry, Liv."

Olivia yanked her hand away, her expression unchanged. "My love for you died with Lily."

The words cut deeper than any physical wound. I surged forward, wrapping my arms around her slender frame, holding her against me.

"You're mine, Liv," I declared desperately. "Only mine. I won't let you go."

She remained stiff in my embrace, unresponsive. Her heart was as still as a frozen lake against my chest. I felt her stillness and trembled, yet I couldn't release her.

The sudden ringtone of my phone shattered the silence between us. Maxwell's name flashed on the screen.

I hesitated, not wanting to break this moment, but I couldn't ignore my Beta. I answered on speakerphone, making no effort to hide the call from Olivia.

"What is it, Maxwell?" I asked, my voice rough with emotion.

"Alpha Stone," Maxwell's voice came through clearly. "Victoria Frost is on the line. She says it's urgent—about Emma."
