After being hooked to IVs and such, I had started to recover quite quickly, I still didn't want to be near Cian, I made myself very embarrassed because I was a stuttering mess and a red tomato,
222Please respect copyright.PENANA5Xptm4epIT
After he had came back in, holding eye contact the whole time, I had ended up pulling the covers over my head, hiding myself, I wasn't sure why I had done that because it made me feel like an idiot, the doctor had calmed down and gave Cian an excuse in my place, saying that the drugs are making me act odd, to my dismay Cian had sounded amused as he had whispered over my head that was covered by a blanket "it's quite precious capturing you in this moment"
222Please respect copyright.PENANA9JPLFTozUf
As the doctor timidly tried to talk to Cian about my health, I had sneakily got up facing my back at them and quickly pulled my hair down to hide my face while smoothing it down, I didn't want to look unattractive in front of him, I had started rubbing my face to get rid of anything stray while putting some pressure on my lashes to have them naturally curl up,
222Please respect copyright.PENANA7ADHX8O7VS
I've never done this before, not for anyone,
222Please respect copyright.PENANAqFjVYTpCLV
Why am I acting that way, if this is what love makes you feel, I have very mixed feelings about it, it's so new to me,
222Please respect copyright.PENANAQVNjKfpPrK
I had tried to sneakily look at Cian, but he had already been staring at me with a small smile adorning his lips as his brown yet yellow streaked eyes turned into a pool of honey with affection,
222Please respect copyright.PENANAv1DWZ7SqQx
How can someone have so many emotions in his eyes,
222Please respect copyright.PENANAuEBl8BLWkl
They did say eyes are the door to a soul, but I've never experienced it, he was my first and hopefully my only one,
222Please respect copyright.PENANAa2lkmfg8Oc
I feel so giddy around him, my whole body is activated with him around and I'm so attracted to him,
222Please respect copyright.PENANAOpNNNCSFYU
After that day, I had been avoiding him as if he is a plague,
222Please respect copyright.PENANA9TR6IH9nZq
And he was,
222Please respect copyright.PENANAHMIJEvzo4S
But he was my plague, and I wanted to be infected,
222Please respect copyright.PENANATuOXrArSWl
I sighed as I was spaced out the whole time, it's been more than a week I was avoiding him, the only times I had seen him has been for work, and it was only briefly because I didn't want him smelling me, and we were never left alone because I wasn't letting Evander leave, I had told him the situation where he had started nearly shifting into his other form in excitement, which had Cian shooting glares at him,
222Please respect copyright.PENANAElhmW2F6K1
He promised to help, and he has, but his patience was starting to run thin as he had told me he wanted us to mate already very politely which of course, I had turned into the color of ketchup and refused strongly,

Today, I was going to let Nemesis and Lycus back into the wild, but they wouldn't leave for the life of me, they would keep coming back into my room, clutching to me like I was their mother, so they are staying, I had already set up their place for them, the only time they were in a cage was for their own safety in case of anything bad happening and that was only at night for sleeping, otherwise they were always out and about,
222Please respect copyright.PENANA83E41haGV6
As for now, my periods had stopped, thankfully yesterday was my last day, so now even if I was left alone with Cian, it is okay,
222Please respect copyright.PENANAzF3TyIZwNB
While I was trying to tidy up my room, just in case Cian bursts in at any moment excitedly, I had heard a ping coming from my phone, I quickly picked it up to look at the message,
222Please respect copyright.PENANA3wsOetyu5u
It was Evander,

"Signy, there is an emergency meeting for all of the continents at the Grand Council, pack up we are going to the kingdom of Noxania"
222Please respect copyright.PENANAeeZunil29N
The kingdom of Noxania was ruled by queen Althea, the Grand Council was held there because the borders of kingdoms of Asmodemia and Olorania had overlapped it and so did the island of Merlomia.
222Please respect copyright.PENANArX0E5RCmZ4
I groaned at the thought, if this is traveling then I have to take Nemesis and Lycus too, it wasn't up for discussion otherwise they would easily kill everyone with how they haven't been trusting anyone at all lately. I've taught them a few tricks too that were related to emergencies and war things that were taught to familiars. It's safe to say they enjoyed it.

Pulling a bag out, I first packed in my undergarments and such and folded them in neatly, I had to have my uniform on the whole time with the long cloak, I also added a formal dress with a casual one just in case to be prepared for anything with appropriate shoes and heels. And lastly I had packed two sets of sleeping clothes, afterwards I had thrown all my hygiene stuff into my bag.
222Please respect copyright.PENANAg9L8p9s0Br
After I was done packing Nemesis's and Lycus's stuff, I had put my uniform on once again. Now I was in a bind. I wasn't sure if I should go for putting my hair in an updo while putting a stick in my hair.
222Please respect copyright.PENANAVMhNDtHuF5
Even if I wanted to, I couldn't because Cian hadn't given me one. Mates give their partner with longer hair, hair sticks as a sign of being mated. So now I had to go with the other option of softly putting my hair in a very low pony tail, letting a few strands fly around, even if I didn't want to look pretty for the meeting, I had to.
222Please respect copyright.PENANAbc5fDH6itG
After I tied the ribbon around my hair, I was finally done. I didn't need to bring the cage for my babies, they could easily go away if they wanted, but they didn't. So being with me on my shoulder with Lycus in my palms or shoulder would do just fine.
222Please respect copyright.PENANAxO5hBOXct8
Once I had stepped outside, I was greeted with the familiar face of Evander as he smiled at me, trying to scratch Nemesis's head as she screamed at him horrified yet intimidatingly.
222Please respect copyright.PENANA96HbJs0JN0
We made our way towards the carriages, of course one of us had to be with the king at all times through out the trip, Evander had teasingly wiggled his eyebrows at me as I glared at him with Lycus hissing at him threateningly in my palms,
222Please respect copyright.PENANAD69nyLnEnd
As we both stood in front of Cian, we bowed in respect, I looked at him and my eyes wandered all over him,
222Please respect copyright.PENANASC0ssi12da
He looked like he was the king of the whole Mother Earth, not to mention he looked like the god of authority himself. As if when he was created, he had been sculpted carefully by the gods of creation themselves. He was beautiful yet terrifying to defy.

"Signy will accompany me through this journey"
222Please respect copyright.PENANALeOEMYjOHK
He decided with finality evident in his voice, he could demand me for my right hand and I'd cut it off for him.
222Please respect copyright.PENANAivhcpOGTOP
I shook my head quickly to get myself rid of the thoughts, I will be spending hours in this carriage with him, I shouldn't act this way.
222Please respect copyright.PENANAXjR2gkOC9M
Before I could answer, Cian had turned around and began leading the way towards the carriage, but going at a slow pace for me to keep up with,
222Please respect copyright.PENANAeQ6O34lkR5
God, I love this man.
