Chapter 79 There was a knowing look in her eyes as she said that last part .
I had a hunch of what she might be hinting at .
Id always known that Askhan is the most competitive Alpha Prince of the Alpha King .
He was already in his twenties but didnt have a mate yet .
That was the only thing getting in his way as heir to the throne .
The sound of footsteps made me turn my head back just in time to see Haelor walking .
Had he overheard our conversation ? I turned back to the Queen Luna , unsure of what to say at her suggestion .
It didnt help much that there was an expectant look in her eyes .
Luckily , Haelor came to the rescue .
He took a step forward and saluted the Queen Luna .
She responded with a small nod of her head .
Forgive me but I overheard a bit of your conversation on my way here .
He bowed his head just a little before going on .
Thea just ended a bond of intrigue and betrayal .
Shes still trying to cope with the aftermath of everything .
I believe she needs time to heal at her own pace .
The Queen Luna nodded thoughtfully at his words .
My hands tightened by my side .
While I appreciated him stepping up for me , I had to say something as well .
I dont want to think of relationships for a while .
One of her eyebrows raised .
Really ? Yes , your majesty .
I nodded .
The only thing on my mind right now is developing my own career .

Seconds passed as the Queen Luna silently watched me .
For a moment , I wondered what she would say .
If there was a way to read minds , Id gladly grab up that opportunity if it meant Id have an inkling of what was going through her head .
Then ever so slowly , the smile on her lips widened .
I understand what you mean , Thea .
Never would I think of forcing you into something you wouldnt want .

Id initially been worried about my decision upsetting her but it seemed there hadnt been anything to worry about .
Thank you .
I beamed .
She nodded her head , a soft look in her eyes as she continued to watch me .
I became all too aware of Askhans gaze on me .
When I turned to look at him , the first thing that hit me was the softness in his eyes .
Being the focus of his attention made my stomach flutter .
This wasnt the Askhan who had coldly ordered the maids and servants to look for me just a little over a while ago .
This was Askhan , my friend and someone I held very dear to me .
Without saying a word , he gently reached for my hand .
His eyes never wavered as he placed a kiss on the back of my hand .
May I have the honour of a dance with you , Thea ? he asked .
I nodded my head , allowing him hold my hand firmly in his .
He shared one last glance with the Queen Luna before leading me out of the small booth and towards the center of the ballroom .
The whispers and hushed murmurs came immediately as all attention turned to us .
I ignored most of them , choosing to fix my focus solely on Askhan .
He held on to my waist while I put a hand over his shoulder .
My other hand remained entwined in his as we slowly swayed to the soft tempo of the classic music that played in the background .
You look gorgeous , Thea .
He grinned , cheeks dusted with a rosy colour .
I felt my cheeks warm at his words .
Thank you .
We continued to dance , oblivious to the watching eyes that surrounded every part of the room .
When our cheeks came were barely an inch together , Askhan sent me a playful wink .
I could watch your face all day and that would be the peak of contentment for a man like me .
I smirked .
Is that your way of saying your obsessed with me ? I wont tell a lie , Askhans eyes glinted with mischief .
Youre far too desirable for me to think of doing that .

A part of me wanted to get a better look at Haelor .
When I tried to turn my head to him , Askhan swayed us to the side , blocking whatever view of him I could have gotten .
I tried again , but he continued with that , blocking every single one of my attempts to get a better look at him .
At some point , I fixed a pointed look at him , wondering why he was suddenly asking like this .
A sigh of relief left my lips when the song finally ended .
Well then , I was about to head towards Haelor when Askhans grip on my hand tightened .
Come on , Askhan smiled .
Theres something I have to do first .
