"I loved you, Henry. I thought you were my buoy, keeping me afloat in the sea of misery I was in, but it turns out you were the anchor that made me drown even further. I gave you a chance, but I won't make the same mistake again. I'm happy with Luis, so please let me go," I said before linking my arm through Alpha Luis' and leaving Henry outside, shivering in the cold breeze.

That morning, I woke up with kisses on my cheeks. When I turned around, I saw Alpha Luis smiling at me.

"Good morning, sleepyhead."

"Good morning," I said, my voice hoarse from a good night's sleep.

"I prepared breakfast for you," he gestured to the tray of food on the bed, and I gasped. He always made me feel loved.

Together, we ate breakfast in bed. We chatted and laughed until he told me we would go on vacation to one of his rest houses.

I instantly agreed so we could have more time together. These past few days, he had been busy with work, so I missed him, and he felt the same way.

He was really willing to take a day off from work just to spend some time with me.

The day arrived for our trip to his rest house on the west side of the country. It was located along a beautiful beach with a nice view of the blue ocean and sunrise. The place is a tourist spot where locals and people from other countries come to surf and swim.

Alpha Luis' rest house is a simple cabin, a façade to make people believe it was owned by an ordinary person, not a powerful Alpha. He said he sometimes goes there to be a normal person, and I was the first girl he invited.

"What do you think of the view?" he said, hugging me from behind as we watched the sunset from the balcony.

I smiled, resting my head on his chest.

"It's magnificent. Thank you for bringing me here."

"You deserve nothing but the best in the world, my Luna."

I tilted my head to look at his face. The sun's rays illuminated his long, narrow nose, deep-set eyes, thick eyebrows, and sharp jawline. I kissed his jaw, captivated by his handsome appearance.

He chuckled and looked at me, then at my lips. In an instant, he kissed me. I don't know how we ended up so quickly in the bedroom kissing. And there, as twilight painted the world, I was claimed by the country's dominant Alpha.

We had so much fun in his rest house. The planned one-week vacation became a month-long stay.
