After meeting Lyra for the first time, Alpha Zero could not stop thinking about her. He had felt attracted to her from the first time he laid his eyes on her, and then after their interaction,
his attraction pensioen.
Try as he might, he could not remove the image of her face with her beautiful ocean blue eyes from his mind.
Fram che cement he hadseen her, he had wanted to protect her and her anyone who caused her any harm.
It was true that he hada prochant for saving and protecting the weak, but this time, it was different. Normally, he didn’t spend hours thinking about the ones he swed days after the fact. He was happy to help, and that was it. But when it came to Lyna.it was something diem.
“She is not your mate,” his well Nolan had reminded him. “Forget about her”
“It doesn’t inciter,” Zerohad told him
He had never been attacted to any shewall the way he was to her. Bond or not, he was certain he wanted to know her more. Beyond that, he was ready to devote himself to her. He wanted her to stay with him, on accept him
but then Julian revealed that she was his mate. It had forced Zerosto suppress his feelings, even though it left him feeling desolate, Julian had waited for his mate for so long, and Zero was happy for him, it was just too unfortunate that it had to be Lyra
Zeco hoped that Julian would treat her well That would make it easies for Zero to get over his feelings. Because If jullam did not take good care of her, it would only make Zer want to take
care of her and protect her more.
Julian might be her mate, and Zero was willing to step back and not put in the s
but if Lyra was being wronged, he could not just stand by and watch.
Zeco was trying not to think about Lyra a lot, but he often found his mind wandering to her. She was the first thing he thought about when he woke up, the last thing on his mind when he went to bed. It was not making it easier for him to forget her and move on.
Two days after he had saved her from the three Omega,hes up at the crack of dawn for his morning sun. Keeping busy and active was one way to keep his mind preoccupied, but lately it hadn’t been working so well.
He kept thinking back to Lyra’s injuries and wondering whether she had recovered. He did not like that she was fed to work even when she was injured. What if he injuries had gotten worse? She was just an Omega, so her healing abilities couldn’t be so good. If the muldn’t take enough test, wouldn’t her injuries just get worse?
While on his run, his rouse took him near the Omega dormitory and he could not resist the urge to go over. Maybe he could hang around until everybody woke up and got a glimpse of Just för frakturance. If he saw that she was doing well, he would be able to go on ith the rest of his day without worrying

Turned out that he did not have to wait. Just as the doctory came into view, he noticed a figure sitting outside the door. He recognised her right away in the moonlight and rushed to her. Tore he could get to her, her body toppled to the ground
“Lyra!” he called when he got there, kneeling down to reach for her. But there was no response. He looked around, wondering what she was doing out there at that hour. The door to the dorm was shut How long had she been outside!
He gathered her in his arms and got to his feet. That’s when he got a whiff of middle of the night wearing his cousin’s clothes?

Zero carried her to his suite and laid her to sleep on his bed After that, he called The and let her know that Lyra was not feeling well and would take the day off.
*What do you mean she is not feeling well Thea demanded, sounding annoyed “She was not in bed, where is she?”
“I’m with her, and she is not in a state to work today.”
“She can’t just take a day off whenever she feels like,” Thea said. “And if she wants to, she should ask
“Are you saying no to my request?” he asked, his woken lowering
“No,” she said “Of course not.” After a pause, the uid, “Flor, she can take the day off”
*Thank you,” Zerouald and hung up.
On the other side, The cursed and glared at her phone. What the hell was that? Why was Alpha Zerocalling to excuse Lyra from work? That the Lycan King, and now him? Why was that lowly slave so special to them? In all the years Thea had lived and worked in the palace, she had never seen any of them pay so much attention to a mere Omega. It made The hate her even more She must think she was too good for the test of thead
