Reborn As Cursed Alpha's Mate
Chapter 179: The Sixth Member?

Chapter 179: The Sixth Member?

Siroos froze between her legs, his lips coated with her juices as he raised his head. His eyes sparkled like a gold-shaded wine, her male blinked and stupidly asked.

"You do?"

Cassandra didn’t wish to laugh but she couldn’t hold it back at the cute and stunned puppy look he was giving her. She sat up and grabbed his face into her soft hands.

"I do, is it that hard to believe?" Tips of her thumbs swept under the soft skin of his eyes.

He slowly shook his head, his lips tugging to bring about a meaningful smile.

"You know how I was dying to hear these words from your lips. I had hoped that one day you would fall in love with me, too. But after that unfortunate incident, I had given up hope."

Cassandra’s thumb slipped to his wet lips, and she pressed it in the centre, shutting him up.

"Shh! That Chapter has been erased from our lives, it has been rewritten. I don’t want us to ever speak of it again. This moment is ours only, understood?"

Siroos happily nodded.

Slowly she inserted her thumb into his mouth and he began to slow suck on it. Their eyes unwavering from each other as she leaned closer and claimed his lips in a slow sensual kiss, staking her claim.

Siroos grabbed her up and straddled her into his lap, letting her deepen this sensual craving between them. His hands slowly rubbed her bare back as they got lost in each other.

"Do you think Alpha will let us meet Nissa today?" Lana hopefully asked as she accompanied her mate who was carrying the food tray for their Alpha and Luna. Siroos had mindlinked him to bring a morning meal for Cassandra.

Faris who insisted on tagging along, lazily said.

"Tich! Probably not, he is acting like a squirrel who stores away nuts for winter. He is hoarding my SIL as usual. Time to have a word with him."

To Ranon’s chagrin, Faris stole a grape from the plate and plopped it into his mouth. The last conversation he had with Aiko had left him in a better mood, he wasn’t moping that much.

Speaking to his mate and the theory he had concocted put him into a better mood; now, he wished to discuss it with his brother and sister-in-law.

Reaching their closed door, Faris promptly knocked and demanded.

"Food and we are here; let us meet SIL, too. Stop being stingy."

Lana bit her lip and Ranon let out a deep sigh. Only Faris had the audacity to say something like that when Alpha had strictly instructed that no one was to disturb them except for bringing food and potions for Cassandra.

After several minutes, during which Faris knocked several times, the door was yanked open by a not-very-pleased Alpha.

"Can you be a little louder? Maybe you will wake up the dead too. Cassandra was resting," Siroos grunted, seeing the cheeky smile back on Faris’s face.

"Yeah! Yeah! I know the amount of rest you must have let her take. Step aside, I want to meet her." He tapped his foot on the ground. Lana and Ranon passed apologetic smiles to their Alpha. Seeing their eyes holding a plea to let them meet Cassandra as well, Siroos gave in.

"Only till the shadows elongate, don’t speak too much. She is still recovering." Hearing their knock earlier, Siroos quickly cleaned her up and helped her put on a cotton dress.

"Fine, fine." Faris brushed past his older brother and entered the chamber. Cassandra was comfortably nestled between many of Siroos’s pillows and cushions.

"SIL!!!" Faris spread his arms and heartily called her out.

"Faris!" She replied with equal enthusiasm as he rushed forward and hugged her.

"How are you feeling?" He asked, rubbing her back.

"Much better." The sides of her eyes crinkled as she wholeheartedly smiled and both of them separated.

"You doing better?" She asked gently, knowing what turmoil he was going through. He was still trying to hide all that pain under layers of his charming smiles.

"I am surviving. Will get through this. Now you are here, I have less worries." He squeezed her hand in assurance, making her sigh but she understood that such traumatic experiences needed time to disappear.

Cassandra’s eyes wavered to their Beta couple.

"Nissa!" Their faces glowed with happiness which both of them experienced seeing her conscious and smiling.

"Ranon! Lana!" Cassandra acknowledged them with a lovely smile. While Ranon placed the tray down, Lana sat beside her and threw her arms around Cassandra.

"It’s so good to have you back—I was worried sick."

Soon she was bawling in her Nissa’s arms. All those hormones had made her extra emotional.

Cassandra gently held her, rubbing her arm, letting her vent out those pent-up feelings.

"As long as I have so many loving people around me, nothing will happen to me. Don’t worry, especially not in this condition." Cassandra calmed Lana down but kept holding her hand. There was a different kind of glow around Cassandra which instantly calmed people down in her proximity.

"You must eat first and then we can talk further." Siroos settled on the other side of his mate and picked up the food tray to place it on his lap. He wished to feed his mate. Rolling some scrambled eggs in a piece of bread he extended it towards her.

"We can do both," Cassandra kindly said while graciously accepting what her man had to offer and began to chew.

Faris had fished out a piece of paper from his pocket and spread it on the sheet. Cassandra watched with keen interest what Faris had brought.

"So we all know that my SIL is a goddess. Just to be clear it still blows my mind." He winked at her and she couldn’t help but giggle heartily.

Lana and Ranon let out small guffaws of laughter too, but threw respectful glances at their Nissa. Siroos continued to feed her.

"Here, this is the prophecy we received." Faris extended the paper to Cassandra.

With interest, she accepted the paper and began to read.

"The interesting part is, I think I have figured out who the sixth member of our motley crew is going to be," Faris announced with a knowing smirk, making everyone turn around to watch him.
