Chapter 0079 Chapter 0079 Third Person POV David couldnt accept that Ella had moved on so quickly .
The two of them had been together for many years .
He was the only boyfriend that she had ever had .
They had planned a life together .
There was no way she had started dating anyone else so quickly , especially not that bastard Alexander Black .
He couldnt , no , he wouldnt accept it .
If Ella thought she was going to get away with embarrassing him like this , she had another thing coming .
There was too much at stake for him to allow things to end like this .
Why did she have to choose Alexander ? If it had been anyone else , he might have been able to let it go , but Alexander was his rival .
Alexander was the strongest competitor in the race for alpha King .
He couldnt allow Alexander to steal Ella away from him .
Not only would it give him control of far too much land in the kingdom , but it would make Alexander look like a hero .
David couldnt allow them to make him look like a villain .
He had to find a way to make Ella forgive him .
So much damage had been done already , there was no other way to undo it .
Ella had to take him back .
If she wouldnt do it by choice , then he simply had to find another way .
He was sitting in the back seat of his car as his driver took him towards the border of his packlands .
The help he needed to win Ella over wouldnt be found in his own pack He smiled bitterly as he looked out the window .
All of his best allies were outside of his pack .
He didnt mind that .
Soon , he would be king .
Everyone in the South would have to answer to him .
He would be able to make all of the people that had made his life difficult pay and reward those that had helped him .
All he had to do was take care of Ella .
Ella POV Ill take care of it , Alexander said dismissively .
Thats generous of you , but I dont need you to take care of every little thing , I pointed out .
I handed the barista my credit card .
Alexander frowned at me .
I cant have my girlfriend paying for my coffee , he said .

People will think that Im a freeloader .
You paid for dinner last night , I pointed out .
And breakfast on Monday .
I can get you things once in a while , too .
Your company is all I need , he said .
The way he was smiling at me made my heart beat too quickly .
Alexander and I had been seeing a lot of each other , and at times I found it difficult to tell if he was still acting or if he really intended to win my heart .
If he was being serious , I doubted that it would be a difficult thing for him to pull off .
I couldnt remember ever having so much fun with another person .
+25 BONUS Chapter 0070 I knew that I had to be careful .
I couldnt allow myself to be distracted by emotions .
This was all with the goal of protecting my pack and the entire kingdom from falling victim to David .
But , it was okay if I had some fun along the way , wasnt it ? I felt that I had earned that much .
Things were already better than they had been in the original timeline .
I could afford to let my guard down just a little .
I couldnt explain why , but I trusted Alexander .
I felt that could really relax with him .
ther We stepped away from the counter to walt for our drinks .
As we did , Alexander put his arm around my waist .
I felt butterflies as he did .
David often did the same thing when we were together , but it never made me feel good the way it did when Alexander held me like this .
I leaned against his side .
It was a busy day at the shopping center .
There were a lot of people around , and both Alexander and I were recognizable .
It was obvious that people would take note of the two of us being out together and of our behavior with one another .
It was already common knowledge that we were dating .
Word had spread quickly .
You know , I think that spending time in the capital has been good for you , Alexander said suddenly , his voice softer than usual .
I looked up at him curiously .
What makes you say that ? asked , tilting my head .
You seem much more comfortable in crowded places than before , he replied , his eyes tracing my face .
Your posture is more confident , like youve grown into yourself .
Are you saying I seemed frightened before ? I asked , pretending to be offended but feeling a little thrill at his observation .
No , he said , a smile tugging at his lips , but I did notice that you were focused on appearing confident .
Now , its just you .
Theres no effort .
Its natural .
I thought about what he said , and he was right .
I had worked hard to project confidence , especially when everything felt so unstable .
But now , with him by my side , it felt real .
I think I have you to thank for that , I said , looking up at him through my lashes .
Alexander raised a brow , genuinely surprised .
Me ? What did I do ? I rolled my eyes playfully .
Dont pretend to be so shocked youre always giving me compliments .
Who wouldnt feel more confident with you around , telling them how amazing they are ? His soft laugh made my stomach flutter , and before I could react , he tugged me closer , his arm brushing against mine .
Well , I wasnt expecting that , he murmured .
But its good to know my words are making an impact .
Theyre all true , you know .
My heart skipped a beat , and warmth crept up my neck as I blushed at his sincerity .
It was easy to brush off his charm most days , but in this moment , his words hit deeper Was he really just playing his part , or was there something more ? Youre definitely good for my ego , I muttered , trying to steady my voice .
Is that so ? he asked , his gaze locked onto mine , a spark of something unspoken lingering in his eyes .
Well , Im glad to hear it .
I think you deserve every compliment and more .
-25 BONUS Chapter 0370 I didnt know what to say , suddenly aware of how close we were standing , his warmth enveloping me .
An awkward silence hung between us , but not the uncomfortable kind the kind that felt heavy with the potential for something more .
His phone rang , breaking the moment .
He glanced down and frowned .
I have to take this , he said , his voice tinged with regret .
I nodded .
Ill wait here .
He hesitated for a second , then leaned down and kissed me gently on the cheek .
The touch lingered , sending a shiver down my spine , and before I could react , he was already walking away , leaving me with the echo of his touch and a racing heart .
I looked around me slowly as I waited for my name to be called for the baristas .
There was a long line ahead of us when we ordered , so it would likely be a couple more minutes before our drinks were ready .
I noticed a short , red headed woman with big brown eyes approaching me .
She had a serious expression on her face .
Youre Ella Rowan , right ? she said in a nervous tone .
Yes , I confirmed .
Who are you ? My name is Nadia , she answered .
I used to date Alexander .
