Chapter 481 Then Ravish Me
Held firmly in Alpha Henry’s embrace, Aubrey’s heart raced wildly, yet she made no attempt to break free. Instead, a strange, unspoken excitement fluttered deep within her chest, stirring emotions she hadn’t fully understood until now.
The heavy door clicked shut behind them, sealing them off from the outside world. A rich, heady scent of blooming flowers wafted softly through the air, wrapping around Aubrey like a delicate, intoxicating veil. Her eyes widened in astonishment as she took in the scene before her—it was as if she had stepped into the enchanted setting of a fairy tale wedding.
Where blackout curtains once hung, now there were thick, scarlet velvet drapes cascading solemnly to the floor, their deep red hue glowing softly in the candlelight. Across the room, countless candles flickered gently from the mantel and bedside tables, their warm yellow flames casting a tender, inviting glow that blurred the edges of the space. Dominating one wall was a massive heart-shaped wreath, expertly woven from fresh white roses and vibrant green ivy, its pristine petals and lush leaves creating a striking contrast against the dark backdrop.
At the center of the room stood the grand four-poster bed, its sturdy posts entwined with the same white roses and ivy vines, the delicate blossoms nestled lovingly among the verdant greenery. The bedding had been transformed into something exquisite—silky sheets embroidered with intricate silver thread patterns shimmered subtly in the candlelight, and scattered across the surface were tiny, glittering rose petals that caught the light like scattered stars.
Every corner of the room spoke of careful, thoughtful preparation, as if it had been crafted for a special, sacred occasion.
Alpha Henry had gone to the trouble of decorating his room—like a wedding chamber, no less.
Was he really this eager?
Despite the surprise, Aubrey felt a warm sweetness bloom inside her. She adored seeing this side of Alpha Henry, watching him put so much effort and care into creating something just for her.
“Do you like it?” Alpha Henry asked softly as he gently laid her down on the bed, his arms wrapping around her protectively.
His masculine scent enveloped her—a rich, commanding pheromone that sent a flutter of nervous excitement through her. The closer he drew, the more intoxicating the aroma became.
“These pillows, the comforter—I picked them all out after asking about your preferences. Everything is exactly the way you like it,” he said, a smile playing on his lips.
Aubrey said nothing, her gaze locked on the intricate details around them.
Alpha Henry’s enthusiasm bubbled over. “But for the wedding itself, I still need your input. Whatever you want, we’ll make it happen. If you want multiple styles, we’ll have them all!”
Aubrey wasn’t sure whether to laugh or sigh. “How many times do you plan to marry me? The guests might get tired of it.”
He chuckled, nuzzling her gently. “Then maybe we won’t have any guests. Or, if anyone wants to come, they’re welcome. I want to marry you over and over, in every new place we go. I want the whole world to know you’re mine. Understand? Okay?”
He repeated the question, his eyes searching hers. Aubrey bit her lower lip, hesitating before finally whispering, “If you only love me… will you regret it? There are so many other she-wolves who adore you. Are you really willing to give them all up for me?”
Alpha Henry’s violet eyes locked onto hers with unwavering intensity. Slowly, he brushed his hand over her temple, his voice dropping to a tender murmur. “Loving you is something I could never grow weary of.”
A soft blush colored Aubrey’s cheeks. Seizing the moment, Alpha Henry leaned in and pressed his lips to hers in a kiss that was sweet and full of promise. As they gazed into each other’s eyes, their hearts fluttered with a delicate thrill, as if touched by something gentle yet electrifying—a feeling both new and intoxicating.
“Baby…”
He nuzzled closer, his voice barely a whisper, “May I?”
Aubrey shot him a playful glare. “So this is why you tricked me into this room. I misjudged you.”
“Not at all!” he protested with mock indignation. “I only wanted to show you the new room and then propose. But when I saw you lying there, so beautiful, I just wanted to claim you—to silence you with kisses. I didn’t want to say another word.”
Her heart raced at his confession, heat rising through her veins. Wrapping her arms around his neck, she tilted her head and bit his earlobe softly. A muffled groan escaped him, followed by her husky whisper.
“Alright then… ravish me.”
