The morning sun came through the curtains, making the room warm and cozy. I lay in bed, tangled in the sheets, thinking about what happened last night. But along with the happy feelings, I also felt unsure about what to do next. I had an arranged wedding coming up, and Luke’s actions made me hesitate. I had responsibilities and expectations from my family that I couldn't ignore but my feelings for him became harder to control every time we made love.
As I looked at Luke, still sleeping peacefully beside me, I felt torn. On one hand, I wanted to forget about everything and be with him completely. The love we felt for each other was so strong, and the thought of leaving it behind was really hard.
But on the other hand, I had to think about my family and the traditions we had. The arranged marriage was already planned, and it was important for the pack of Pembroke. Mom would benefit a lot from the marriage, and I couldn’t bear to disappoint her. I didn’t want her to die young so I had to help Dad to make both ends meet. It was a decision made a long time ago, before I fell for Luke Skywalker.

As I watched Luke start to wake up, I felt guilty. He had been so kind and understanding, showing me a love I had never known before. The thought of hurting him or breaking his heart made me feel really bad.
But as I touched his face gently, I wondered if love alone was enough. Could we make it work if we chose to go against what everyone expected? Could we build a life together without worrying about what others thought?
I took a deep breath and got out of bed, standing by the window and looking outside. The sun was shining, bringing a sense of hope to the new day. It reminded me that life was full of choices, and sometimes we had to make our own path, even if it meant going against what others wanted.
But I am Isabella Drake, daughter of the Alpha of Pembroke, and my name came with a huge responsibility. As much as I wanted to follow my heart, I just couldn’t! There’s a lot at stake, and I don’t think I would be able to handle the consequences later on.
“Good morning, sweetheart,” he said while smiling at me, and then he raised his hand as if he urged me to come closer to him.
I obliged and it was a wrong decision because he suddenly grabbed my body and I tumbled on top of him. Then, I realized that he was aroused and hard. We made love again. It was quick, and once we were finished, he put his clothes back on, and he was getting ready to leave.

“I have an important meeting today. So will you be fine if you won’t see me for several hours? Uncle said he had to meet me today,” he explained.
“Alright, go ahead. Luke. What about breakfast? Should we eat together?”
“I’m sorry, but I don’t think I have time for it right now, Isabella. I will just take a quick shower, and then I will leave. Should I ask the maids to send you some food here? I know you’re tired and exhausted from loving me all night,” he said.
“Will you? Yes, please do that. I am so lazy to get up right now,” I said, and he nodded with a smile. Then, he kissed me on my forehead before he sauntered toward the door.

When Luke was gone, my mind was thinking again. And I believed that I should just end our agreement to be with one another for a week. I should do it to protect my heart because each time he would make love to me, I became addicted to his touch.
I realized that I had developed a strong addiction to his touch. Whenever he wasn't around, I felt a deep longing for him, which caught me off guard because I didn't expect to feel such a powerful connection.
I followed him after we made love because I couldn't get enough of him. I was happy to see him outside, but then he told me he had to meet someone important and didn't give me any details. I started overthinking and became crazy with jealousy, thinking he was meeting another woman. I wondered what was wrong with me.
Luke said he would only be gone for a moment, but he ended up being away for a few hours without calling me. Still, I waited for him eagerly. When I finally heard the sound of his car arriving, I was filled with excitement!
However, he didn't come to visit me in my bedroom as I expected. I waited for him, but he never showed up. In the end, I couldn't resist and decided to go find him because I just wanted to see his face. If I had known that I would give in to his lovemaking, I wouldn't have done it in the first place.
I took a deep breath and went outside to find him. Standing outside his door, I was nervous but knew I had to knock. He was surprised to see me but had no choice but to let me inside. Without thinking, I grabbed both of his hands and pressed them against my chest.
I expected him to remove his hands when he blinked in surprise, but he didn't. Instead, I felt his hands exploring my body. I shivered with anticipation as he gently held my hands and looked at me with something in his eyes. Then, he lifted my blouse and unhooked my bra.
I watched as he took one of my breasts into his mouth and sucked on my nipple. I couldn't help but let out a small moan. I used my hands to undo his pants, even though I knew it was risky. Instead of grabbing his head, I decided to hold onto his hair, and it was easy to undo his pants.
Every now and then, he would look up at me and lock his gaze with mine while his tongue played with my nipples. He knew how to use his tongue, and I had to bite my lip to keep from groaning too loudly. I wanted more of him!
While he was sucking on my nipple, I moaned his name, "Luke."
"Yes, Isabella?" he responded.
"Mmmm," I mumbled, my eyes darting towards the nearest bed.
Luke understood what I wanted and quickly carried me to the bed. I stared at him as he hurriedly took off his clothes. He was already hard and ready for me! But he wanted to tease me a bit more. I let out a surprised cry when he put his head between my legs and spread them apart with his hands.
I cried out as I felt his tongue on my skin, licking and teasing my clitoris. Despite my attempts to push him away, he continued to pleasure me. The more I tried to resist, the harder he pressed his tongue against me, causing me to scream with pleasure. I couldn't help but call out his name over and over again!
"You want me," he whispered, panting for breath, and I nodded.
"I do. I want you next to me," I admitted.
"So, it's just lust," he said.
"Maybe," I mumbled, then I pushed his body away from me and took control, straddling him.
"Do you know what you're doing right now?" he asked, his voice becoming husky with arousal.
"Yes, I'm making you even hornier. Tell me, Luke, did you meet another woman after we made love?" I confronted him as I sat on top of him and started moving my hips.
While waiting for his response, I stared into his eyes and saw something more than lust. But he closed his eyes and groaned as I took him in deeper.
"No, it wasn't another woman," he replied before closing his eyes again.
"Open them," I commanded as I continued to ride him. He tried to open his eyes, but he couldn't keep them open for long. Soon enough, he closed them again. "Look at me!"
"Isabella...," he whispered my name, trying to lock his gaze with mine.
But when our eyes locked, I felt something more powerful than lust. I couldn't keep my eyes open for long either. My eyes rolled back as I moved up and down on his erection. He groaned with pleasure, and his moans were like music to my ears.
I picked up the pace, and he screamed my name. Faster and deeper, his hands on my waist guiding me, we didn't stop moving our hips until we both found satisfaction. I bit my lip as I reached my climax, and when I looked into his eyes again, I experienced another orgasm, especially when I saw his dilated pupils. I knew I was feeling the same way, so I kept biting my lip. Suddenly, Luke moved again, and I screamed with pleasure!
As Luke continued to pleasure me, I felt a rush of emotions that I couldn't put into words. The way he touched me made me feel so good, but it was hard to describe exactly how I was feeling. It was like a whirlwind of pleasure that took over my body and mind.
In the middle of our passionate moment, Luke suddenly stopped and looked into my eyes. He then surprised me by proposing to marry me. I was taken aback and didn't know how to react. It wasn’t the first time he asked me to become his Luna, how could I say yes? I believed that once I would become the Luna of that pack, misfortunes would start coming to me.
Yes, that’s right. I remembered clearly that misfortunes started to happen after my marriage to Aric Stormheart before. In fact, there were times when I wondered about why I was being punished that way.
First, my mother died of a terminal illness. Then, Dad was killed by a rogue, and the pack of Pembroke ended up being merged with Lancaster. Aric ruled both packs, and he became too busy to be a proper husband to me. As a result, I couldn’t become pregnant because we couldn’t spend a lot of time intimately.
Looking into Luke's eyes, I saw hope and vulnerability. He had opened up his heart to me, expressing his desire to spend the rest of his life with me. It was a beautiful and overwhelming moment that left me speechless.
But even as my heart soared with the idea of being with him forever, I also felt overwhelmed by the weight of the decision. There were practical things to consider, like our families' expectations and the uncertainty of the future. It was a lot to take in.
I wanted to say yes, to embrace his love and commitment fully. But I also had doubts and fears lingering in the back of my mind. The idea of going against my arranged marriage and the potential consequences made me hesitate.
As I struggled to find the right words, Luke patiently waited for my response. He understood the mix of emotions I was experiencing. He showed me love and acceptance, assuring me that he would support me no matter what I decided.
“Isabella? Will you accept your fate as the future Luna of Lancaster?” he asked again.
“No, thank you.”
