The Alpha's Regret Return Of The Betrayed Luna (Addison) novel Chapter 289

Chapter 289: Chapter 289 Zion Is About To Rut

"Maxwell, let me bathe on my own. You should take care of yourself more..." Addison said helplessly.

"No, baby. Let me take care of you. This is the least I can do..." Maxwell murmured as he pressed a gentle kiss to her cheek from behind. For a moment, Addison almost felt touched—until he added teasingly, "After all, you took care of me earlier..."

His innuendo wasn’t lost on her, and she couldn’t help but playfully roll her eyes. Who would’ve thought that the man everyone knew as a cold, indifferent iceberg of a man could turn out to be so mischievous and playful at times?

Addison playfully rolled her eyes but let Maxwell have his way. Without realizing it, she was slowly getting used to his closeness. As the saying goes, proximity breeds familiarity, familiarity breeds comfort, and comfort inevitably gives rise to feelings. It almost felt like Maxwell was treating her like a frog in warm water, being boiled little by little, while she—the frog—stayed in the pot without even noticing.

After washing her body, Maxwell carefully lathered her hair with shampoo. His touch was gentle, the slow massage of his fingers so soothing that Addison couldn’t help but hum softly, her tension melting away.

She was so lost in the comfort he created that she didn’t notice what was happening outside her door, where both Levi and Zion stood pacing restlessly, their expressions dark and stormy, like thunderclouds ready to break.

"Did you feel it too?" Zion suddenly asked, his voice low as he stopped pacing and looked up at Levi.

Just moments earlier, he had been sleeping soundly, only to jolt awake when a sudden heat surged through his body. His cock twitched violently, precum already leaking as though responding to some invisible call.

He wasn’t even reacting from a wet dream; he hadn’t dreamt at all. Yet the ache in his lower belly coiled tighter and tighter, a maddening urge to release clawing at him with every breath.

His chest rose and fell in ragged pants, the sensation growing unbearable the longer he lay there, his cock straining painfully against the fabric of his pants. It felt as though he might combust if he didn’t ease the need tearing at him.

His sleepiness vanished instantly, replaced with raw hunger, and before he realized it, he had shoved his pants down just enough to wrap his hand around his throbbing length, stroking in desperation.

"Maybe it’s starting again..." Shura suddenly cut through his thoughts, its voice dripping with impatience.

"Starting what?" Zion growled back, frustration flashing in his eyes. Even with his hand working his cock, it still wasn’t enough; the ache only deepened. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

"Our rut, dummy..." Shura snapped, almost mocking. "Don’t you remember? The Alpha King and the others had to dose us with suppressants the other day when we nearly lost control and came tearing out of the palace to hunt our mate. But it was only a suppressant, not a cure. With our Alpha bloodline, you really think we could hold it down for long?"

"Then let’s go to our mate," Shura urged, his tone buzzing with excitement. "If our rut takes hold now, we’ll all be in trouble..." It didn’t even want to wait for Zion to move. Zion could feel his wolf straining against him, clawing to take over his body and bolt straight to Addison’s room.
