Breed Me. Daddy Alpha novel Chapter 209

Lyra

I didn’t even wait for a ride. I swear my legs were moving before my brain caught up, and the next thing I knew I was running. Like actually full-on running down the street, hair flying, tears drying on my cheeks, heart pounding like some kind of war drum in my chest.

And I didn’t care how insane I looked. I didn’t care if people saw me and thought oh my God, she’s losing her mind, because I was losing my mind.

I had to get to him. I couldn’t breathe properly. My whole body was shaking, and I just-I needed to see his face. Right now. Immediately. Or I was going to implode.

And yes, okay, maybe I could’ve waited for a cab or ordered a ride or something normal, but nothing about this felt normal.

Not the panic inside me, not the way my heart hurt, and definitely not the late-ass period I hadn’t told anyone about. It was like the moment I said it out loud, something inside me snapped, and now I couldn’t stop moving until I was in his arms.

By the time the pack estate came into view, my chest was on fire. Like actual fire. My lungs were screaming and my feet felt like they were going to fall off, but I didn’t slow down.

I kept going. Because the second I saw those gates, I knew I was close. I knew he was behind them. And suddenly all I wanted was to throw myself at him and cry and maybe scream and maybe kiss him until I couldn’t remember my name.

I didn’t wait at the gates. The guards saw me and opened them like they already knew not to stop me. Because duh. Damon was Damon. And I was his Luna. Or his problem. Or both.

Either way, nobody dared say a word. I ran straight into the house, not even stopping to catch my breath, and the second I hit the floor, one of the maids literally gasped and started talking into her earpiece like I was the freaking president.

“She’s here. His Luna. She’s here for Alpha Damon.”

Yeah. That’s right. Tell them. Announce me. The desperate, possibly pregnant, emotionally unstable little Luna is here to shake shit up.

I followed the sound of voices because I already knew where he was. Deep voice. Commanding. Quiet enough to scare you. Loud enough to make grown men shut up. Damon.

I heard him before I saw him. And I didn’t even hesitate. I saw the big oak doors. I heard the meeting going on inside. And I did not care. I didn’t knock. I didn’t pause. I didn’t wait for permission like some polite little schoolgirl.

Nope.

I shoved the doors open and walked straight in.

And oh my God.

Eight Alphas.

Eight grown, powerful, insanely intimidating Alphas in full suits sitting around this long-ass table looking like they were about to solve world hunger or declare war or something.

And at the head of it all?

Damon.

My Alpha.

He looked up like he felt me before he saw me, and the second our eyes locked, I swear I stopped breathing. His face changed. Like instantly. His jaw clenched. His nostrils flared.

His body straightened like he’d just scented danger, except I wasn’t danger. I was his Omega, and I was about to cry again because the second I saw him I remembered why I’d come.

One of the men stood and tried to speak. “Alpha Damon, I don’t believe this meeting…”

“Out,” Damon said. Just that one word.

My mouth opened to speak, to explain, to say something, anything, but nothing came out. Not a single word. Only this horrible, tight, gasping sob that felt like it was being ripped from my throat with claws.

My whole face crumpled.

And then I was crying.

Not cute crying.

Not graceful, soft, single-tear-down-the-cheek movie crying.

No.

I was full-body sobbing, arms shaking, knees buckling, face soaked, chest heaving like I couldn’t get enough air.

And even as I cried, I hated myself for how dramatic it looked, for how messy it sounded, but I couldn’t stop. My emotions weren’t listening to me anymore. They were in full rebellion mode. And my body? My body just wanted him.

He didn’t even flinch.

He didn’t look shocked.

He didn’t try to stop me or tell me to calm down.

He just caught me.
