Luna On The Run - I Stole The Alphas Son

Chapter 72

Elena POV

when they finally lift to mine with a devious smile on his lips. “As if you would ever escape me again,” he growls, folding his arms across his chest.

He takes a step forward, his eyes flashing with amusement. “You’re already caught,” he purrs, and I can’t help but shiver in

amusement, and he pushes off the vanity. “Don’t deny it,” he says, his voice low and deep. I swallow hard, my heart racing. He reaches for the hem of his shirt, his eyes never leaving mine as he slowly peels it off. His muscular body is toned. and
