After we got out of the carriage, the butlers had took our bags and the maids showed us to our rooms. Turns out, my room was next to Cian's but I shared it with Evander as we were the leaders. However, Cian had turned into a stone with how angry he got over the shared rooms which in return Evander had tried to politely tell me it would be better if I share the room with Cian.

Despite how different the king's room was compared to mine, he instantly agreed without letting me give it a thought. To which Evander had smirked secretly as he mouthed 'whipped' behind Cian.
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9KAKMkWzVZ
I looked down as the thought of sharing a room with Cian had made me feel giddy and excited. But I didn't want to show it.
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiMEHkmHzh5
As we made our ways to the rooms, I had my luggage inside, Nemesis and Lycus were with us the whole time, they were counted as familiars for my job. Even though that's not what it really is.
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8iiVU9UsH7
Once we were inside, Cian had closed the door and locked it to which my heart pounded even more,
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYnTiqyPI21
what is he going to do,
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZHRo96JMcV
To my confusion he just stood there watching me, his eyes swirled with confusion, love and adoration, the emotions that he looked at me with were unrecognizable to me, I've never been looked at the same way he does,
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBc0Ien5omv
I gulped as he stepped closer, and I subconsciously stepped backwards,
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfE0aAneL3M
He could easily catch up with me, but I could tell he enjoyed chasing me slowly like a predator would with its prey.
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXScFrkRJNq
Then my back hit against a hard surface, I was pressed against the wall as he leaned down to be eye level with me,
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdtamjzBKQ2
His minty breath fanned my face with the proximity of our closeness, he then lowly whispered with his deep voice
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWFgtJkUix1
"You have been very cautious lately, my love"
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgeqUbYtKRO
I gulped audibly at his words, dreading the question that was about to get out of his lips,
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIueYczlACM
"Tell us, little mate, what's wrong, di we scare you?"
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvdyXGjcDmg
I looked up as I sensed his voice getting deeper, the yellow in his eyes had alarmingly surfaced over the brown in his eyes, but they were shadowed with sorrow and pain, yet the unrecognizable intensity still visible in them.
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMMauqCaZTB
I wasn't scared, I know he could rip me to shreds but I don't think he is emotionally capable of that, and by the looks of it, he is my soulmate and I his mate,
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEnVSOqXDWv
he doesn't seem to reject the mating bond either, quite the opposite actually,
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyMOfw5MQtW
So I was thinking, maybe I could tell him,
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT6pN7D5vsP
Maybe I could open up and tell him that I have developed feelings towards him,
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡigoEirZXIg
That I love him.
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhRlEyT4mrn
I opened my mouth, not knowing how to get the words out as my lips moved with no audible sound coming out,
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZjMhBmXlSB
He took that as a sign of confirming his suspicions,
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4cl16EkHim
His shoulders sagged as he was about to turn around,
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4krnkhT9iC
I couldn't let him go without him knowing,
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY6B0WqKmQx
I grabbed his arm and pulled him towards me, crashing his body against mine as I cupped his cheeks and brought his face closer to mine,
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3u7K8JFTOw
"I need you to listen carefully because I don't know any other way that I can say this"
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCoYGSTxxTd
His eyes swirled with hope, a struggle of desperation wanting to resurface in them,
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlcFlUOAFm6
I took in a breath "I am horrible at this, I have never felt this way towards anyone but you"
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2FWUUh3lVK
He opened his mouth but I shook my head at him, he waited for me to continue,
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR2AEsXf5MA
"I don't know how to do this, Cian. I've never been taught to properly understand my feelings, I've never displayed any type of emotion to anyone nor to myself, what I feel with you around, to me, is frightening"
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl6Ivheq2lZ
The hope in his eyes diminished as his lips were starting to form into an involuntary frown, he started speaking, hurt evident in his voice,
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5vOlxLeYDA
"My queen, we are sorry to scare you. Our intent is not to be scary or come off as rough, but I swear on our love for you, that our intentions are always innocent with you, we want a life with you and only you. If you decide that you do not want a life with us, that is okay, we will always love you" his eyes teared up "W-We accept anything that our beautiful mate wants even if-"
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMtdMUCY7E2
"I love you, Cian"
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTdgwEQuMX1
"Yes, even if you love us-"
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKwiWeCCHhi
This time he cut himself off, eyes widened in shock,
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxcpRAmZQ7M
a few seconds passed by with neither of us saying anything,
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ZCWPzX1YF
I had started getting worried, but before I could speak up, his eyes had turned into the most beautiful color of yellow and brown as the yellow constantly tried to surface over the brown, his face had bloomed into happiness as he broke into the most beautiful smile I've ever seen.
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlja1AUmNSn
"M-Mate loves us?"
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZIPvjb4DOS
His cheeks flushed a slight pink as he couldn't surpass his childish happiness.
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWMrJKlFZsE
I broke into a smile of my own,
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpdlTdcxV9t
"Yes, I love you, Cian"
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyJ8BKLx10w
The yellow in his eyes finally took over as a slightly jumpy Cian had his eyes turn yellow with the brown streaks barely visible yet trying to resurface again,
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7MMzX3Jn7k
"W-What about m-me"
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9wdVl9MFfG
I giggled at the childish jealousy that Helios displayed,
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDSWV2v90Sk
"I love you too, Helios, if I say I love Cian, it means that I love you both. Because you are both one for me. You are my first and hopefully my only one forever"
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjt4tKeZuWL
Helios purred, it was odd for a wolf that was known for his aggressive behavior and murderous intentions.
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeRwLjhDY0l
His eyebrows furrowed after a second, his voice was thick with the deepness of both Cian's and Helios's voice being mixed as they both claimed,
167Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8nCGyOpMBO
"No, not hopefully, we will always definitely be your only one as you are for us, always"
