**The Heart I Buried for You by Serene Lockwood**
\n**Chapter 328: Give You a Grand Funeral**<\/p>\n
The humid warmth of the bathroom enveloped them, creating a cocoon of intimacy that felt both electric and suffocating.<\/p>\n
Deanna bit her lip, stifling soft gasps that escaped her throat as her body succumbed to a delicious wave of trembling heat. Each sensation was heightened, as if every nerve ending was on fire.<\/p>\n
Luis, with his effortless strength, didn\u2019t even need to utilize his shoulder to keep her in place.<\/p>\n
After being pushed to the brink of ecstasy repeatedly, Deanna\u2019s mind raced with embarrassment:<\/p>\n
*Why does Luis have so many ways to torture me?*<\/p>\n
As the night deepened, the moonlight cascaded through the balcony doors like a delicate veil, painting the room in a soft, ethereal glow that made everything feel serene and warm.<\/p>\n
Deanna lay sprawled on the bed, her arms instinctively wrapped around Luis\u2019s solid waist, drawing comfort from the familiar cedar scent that enveloped him. It was a scent that felt like home, grounding her amidst the chaos of her thoughts.<\/p>\n
Today had been overwhelming; the events had drained her more than she anticipated. She had convinced herself that sleeping in the Mooncrown Pack would be impossible.<\/p>\n
Yet now, her eyelids felt heavy, and the world around her began to fade into a gentle blur.<\/p>\n
\u201cLuis\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n
She murmured, her voice barely above a whisper.<\/p>\n
Luis\u2019s dark, penetrating gaze remained fixed on her, his fingers tenderly combing through her soft curls, his voice a soothing balm. \u201cWhat is it?\u201d<\/p>\n
Perhaps she was already drifting into the realm of dreams.<\/p>\n
Deanna kept her eyes closed, a small smile tugging at her lips as she whispered, \u201cGood\u2026 night.\u201d<\/p>\n
Moments later, the room fell into a tranquil silence, the only sound being the rhythmic rise and fall of her breathing.<\/p>\n
She surrendered to sleep, a peaceful expression gracing her features, reminiscent of a small, content kitten.<\/p>\n
Luis observed her for what felt like an eternity, his heart swelling with a mix of affection and protectiveness. He lowered his head, pressing a gentle kiss to her forehead, a silent promise to keep her safe.<\/p>\n

**Chapter 328: Give You a Grand Funeral**<\/p>\n
\u201cGoodnight, Deanna.\u201d<\/p>\n
After a moment, Luis carefully lifted the blanket, ensuring not to disturb her slumber.<\/p>\n
He rose from the bed and stepped out of the room, the door clicking shut behind him.<\/p>\n
The tenderness that had graced his features moments ago vanished, replaced by an unsettling glint that lurked deep within his eyes.<\/p>\n
The Mooncrown Pack estate loomed before him, an impressive structure that resembled a grand castle, comprised of a main house and four surrounding villas, all boasting an elegant classical architecture that spoke of power and history.<\/p>\n
Luis strode purposefully toward the villa at the farthest end, the guards he encountered bowing their heads in reverence as they recognized their leader.<\/p>\n
He traversed the lengthy corridor, crossed the lush back garden, and arrived at the rear villa, halting in front of a door that seemed to pulse with tension.<\/p>\n
With a firm push, he opened the door.<\/p>\n
Inside, Ruth slumped in a chair adorned with the Mooncrown Pack crest, her posture betraying her fatigue.<\/p>\n
Clad in a custom deep gray suit from earlier that day, her face bore the weight of countless burdens.<\/p>\n
Surprise flickered in her eyes upon seeing him.<\/p>\n
\u201cDon\u2019t ever touch Deanna again! This is the last warning I\u2019ll give you.\u201d<\/p>\n
Clang!<\/p>\n
Ruth, in a fit of rage, seized the teacup beside her and hurled it at Luis.<\/p>\n
He sidestepped it effortlessly, the frame behind him crashing against the door and shattering on impact.<\/p>\n
Ruth\u2019s breath quickened, her voice rising in a frantic shout. \u201cWhy is Deanna living here?! Can\u2019t you see her true intentions? She\u2019s using you to get back at me! Does she genuinely believe a woman like her can become the Luna of the Mooncrown Pack? Over my dead body!\u201d<\/p>\n
Luis\u2019s expression remained impassive, the chaos around him failing to rattle his composure.<\/p>\n
He glanced at the fallen frame, as if it were nothing more than a trifling inconvenience. \u201cIf she wants to play games, then let her. If you can\u2019t handle it, then there\u2019s no place for you in this Pack.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cIf you wish to enjoy your twilight years, I suggest you behave yourself. Do you understand?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cLuis!\u201d<\/p>\n
Ruth, clearly taken aback by his coldness, grasped a knife from the table and pressed it against her neck, desperation etched on her face.<\/p>\n
Luis raised his eyes, annoyance flickering within them, and spoke each word with deliberate slowness, \u201cYou know I have no tolerance for threats. If you take that step, I\u2019ll ensure you receive a grand funeral.\u201d<\/p>\n
Without a moment\u2019s hesitation, he turned on his heel and walked out.<\/p>\n
Clang!<\/p>\n
Ruth\u2019s hand fell limp, the knife clattering to the floor, her eyes hollow and devoid of life, resembling an empty well lost in a parched desert.<\/p>\n
