Chapter 92
CHAPTER NINETY–TWO
LIANA’S POV
One week later…
“Killian, stop!” I laughed, throwing a splash of water straight at his face while backing away quickly, my wet feet making little squeaking sounds on the tiled floor as I ran across the massive bathroom in his mansion.
Yeah… We had finally returned to Killian’s house a few days ago after setting everything straight back home. My dad giving us his full blessing and my stepmom, God, their blessing meant everything to me, their blessing on our relationship made everything feel complete. We were finally where we were supposed to be. Back home. Ryan had returned to his main school, and he was settling in fine. Killian had been busy with campaign meetings, and I was… well, trying to remember how to live a normal life again. Or, at least, as normal as life could get when your mate was the front–runner in the Alpha King election, and you were apparently the long–lost daughter of a legend.
Yeah. That part.
Since the warehouse incident, the news had spread like wildfire. Everywhere I went, eyes followed me, not with fear or judgment like before, but with this overwhelming kind of reverence. Like people saw me and didn’t just see Killian’s mate anymore, they saw Alpha Emilia’s daughter. The daughter of the legendary Alpha who had once ruled with unmatched strength and respect. And not just any daughter, I carried her aura, her strength, her eyes, her presence. I was her heir, even though her pack had dissolved years and years ago.
And now, the werewolf council wanted to see me.
Why wouldn’t they? Their top candidate had a fated mate who happened to be the daughter of the most respected female Alpha in werewolf history. Killian said it was because they were curious, but I could tell it was more than that. They wanted to see me, evaluate me, understand who exactly I was and what kind of asset I could be.
Killian had already shot to the top of the rankings again, his competitors couldn’t even breathe in his lane anymore. And while they were out there struggling to show off their mates or trying to prove fertility or strength, I had already given Killian an heir. Ryan. And now with my bloodline, Killian’s chances were no longer chances, they were guarantees.
But all of that… all of that was for later.
Because right now, I was in the middle of a water fight with a fully naked, ridiculously sexy, cocky–as–hell man named Killian who had barged into the bathroom while I was about to take a normal bath.
“Killian!” I screamed, laughing as I bent and picked up the hand shower, twisting it sharply toward him and releasing a full spray of icy water.
He didn’t even flinch.
Instead, his smirk widened, and the next thing I noticed was the way his cock started hardening almost instantly, as if my cold water was a damn aphrodisiac.
“You’re unbelievable,” I muttered, trying not to laugh again as I dropped the showerhead and made a dash across the room, trying to escape before he could reach me.
But I wasn’t fast enough.
Killian caught me just before I reached the far end of the bathroom. His strong arms wrapped around my waist from behind and in a second, he turned me and pinned me against the wall, his hands warm and wet and

absolutely unbothered by the water dripping from both of us.
He leaned in to kiss me, but I twisted my face to the side, avoiding his lips with a teasing smirk.
He raised a brow and tilted his head. “Really? You’re going to run around naked in front of me and then not let me kiss you p>
I laughed. “Killian, come on! We’re almost late. You get hard so easily p>
His eyes glinted with that familiar mischievous glow, and he pinned my wrists above my head, his body pressed against mine, hot and heavy and so full of tension.
“I get hard so easily when it comes to you, baby,” he said, his voice low and thick as he lowered his lips to my neck, trailing slow kisses down while my breath hitched in my throat.
“We really don’t have time for this,” I whispered, even as my body betrayed me and leaned into him, aching for
more.
He didn’t say anything else.
He just smirked.
And then he went down on me.
