**Chapter 302: What\u2019s Your Plan?**<\/p>\n
**Deanna\u2019s POV:**<\/p>\n
As I gradually peeled my eyelids apart, the world around me came into focus.<\/p>\n
Luis was there, his gaze fixed intently on me, brimming with a depth of emotion that was almost palpable. It felt as if he was peering into the very core of my being, and I couldn\u2019t help but feel a flutter in my chest.<\/p>\n
Tentatively, I reached out, my fingers brushing against his forehead. The warmth that had once radiated from him had faded, leaving behind a coolness that brought an unexpected relief.<\/p>\n
The heaviness that had settled on my heart seemed to lift, and I took a deep breath, savoring the moment.<\/p>\n
Luis\u2019s lips curved into a gentle smile, and he took my hand, bringing it to his mouth, where he pressed a soft kiss against my skin. \u201cAll thanks to you,\u201d he murmured, his voice low and sincere.<\/p>\n
His words sent a rush of memories flooding back from the night before, and I felt a wave of embarrassment wash over me. It was my first experience of that kind, and even the thought of it now made my cheeks flush with warmth.<\/p>\n
Luis\u2019s smile widened, and he rolled over to face me, propping himself up on one elbow. His voice dropped to a sultry whisper, laced with mischief. \u201cNext time, let me take the lead.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cStop talking!\u201d I retorted, both mortified and annoyed, instinctively covering his mouth with my hand to silence him.<\/p>\n
Luis chuckled softly beneath my palm, the vibrations sending a delightful tickle through my fingers.<\/p>\n
After a brief pause, he gently pried my hand away, wrapping my wrist around the back of his neck. His tone shifted to something more serious as he said, \u201cDeanna, I have to take a business trip. When I return, I\u2019m planning to visit your mom at the Mistbane Pack.\u201d<\/p>\n
Confusion clouded my mind as I blinked at him, trying to decipher the implications of his words.<\/p>\n
What did that mean for us?<\/p>\n
Luis held my gaze, his smile unwavering as he continued, \u201cWhat kind of wedding do you want?\u201d<\/p>\n
The question caught me off guard, and I found myself at a loss for words. My heart raced as I replied, \u201cWhatever you want, I\u2019ll make it happen, okay?\u201d<\/p>\n
A rush of emotion surged within me, and my eyes began to sting with unshed tears.<\/p>\n
It felt as though my life, which had been on pause for far too long, was finally gearing up for a new chapter.<\/p>\n
I was about to become part of a family.<\/p>\n
A family that was entirely mine.<\/p>\n
After rising from the bed, Luis informed me that the Mooncrown Pack\u2019s overseas company had an urgent matter that required his immediate attention.<\/p>\n
The private jet was ready, its flight plan already cleared for takeoff.<\/p>\n
I had a morning meeting to attend, so I couldn\u2019t accompany him to the airport.<\/p>\n
Ruth\u2019s eyes narrowed, a cold smile forming on her lips. \u201cLet her in.\u201d<\/p>\n
Zelena entered, clad in a long black coat, black pants, and dark sunglasses that concealed her eyes. A black silk scarf was wrapped around her face, shrouding her features in mystery.<\/p>\n
Guided by the housemaid, she stepped cautiously into the expansive living room, the grandeur of the space making her feel small and out of place.<\/p>\n
The somber atmosphere was palpable, and Zelena straightened her posture as she approached the imposing figure of Ruth.<\/p>\n
Finally, she reached the seat of power where Ruth sat, her presence commanding and formidable.<\/p>\n
Removing her sunglasses and scarf, Zelena bowed slightly, her voice steady as she greeted, \u201cGood afternoon, Mrs. Eaton.\u201d<\/p>\n
Ruth lifted her cool gaze, scrutinizing Zelena with an intensity that seemed to pierce through her very soul. \u201cWhat do you want from me?\u201d she asked, her voice unwavering.<\/p>\n
A peculiar smile danced on Zelena\u2019s lips, a glimmer of something almost conspiratorial in her expression. \u201cMrs. Eaton, we share the same enemy.\u201d<\/p>\n
Ruth remained silent, but the weight of her lineage and status as a pureblood elder began to press down on Zelena, creating an atmosphere thick with tension.<\/p>\n
Ruth\u2019s sharp gaze locked onto Zelena, as if she could see through the layers of her carefully constructed facade.<\/p>\n
\u201cOh? So what\u2019s your plan?\u201d Ruth inquired, her interest piqued, yet her demeanor remained guarded.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-2384","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/2384","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/chapter"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2384"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
