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.
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOuIul3yafm
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.
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMuPefAhxKf
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.
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfL6bKsE5hp
Once we were inside, Cian had closed the door and locked it to which my heart pounded even more,
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9zxbuGwNdw
what is he going to do,
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx7qckwgKvE
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,
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrbMI9PJOzB
I gulped as he stepped closer, and I subconsciously stepped backwards,
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR7i8e6YK60
He could easily catch up with me, but I could tell he enjoyed chasing me slowly like a predator would with its prey.
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR3wNuoEDIS
Then my back hit against a hard surface, I was pressed against the wall as he leaned down to be eye level with me,
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZQIgUl0YFP
His minty breath fanned my face with the proximity of our closeness, he then lowly whispered with his deep voice
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSSULHFnoAM
"You have been very cautious lately, my love"
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtyQMmg3fc7
I gulped audibly at his words, dreading the question that was about to get out of his lips,
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7oSKBp00kc
"Tell us, little mate, what's wrong, di we scare you?"
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCcxIf6fzlf
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.
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7oMcLCOHY4
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,
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLuuFyszBjq
he doesn't seem to reject the mating bond either, quite the opposite actually,
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡucbXphPObz
So I was thinking, maybe I could tell him,
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9dy1eXFqSQ
Maybe I could open up and tell him that I have developed feelings towards him,
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVigoQoo5hC
That I love him.
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcX5rNvgUE4
I opened my mouth, not knowing how to get the words out as my lips moved with no audible sound coming out,
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2mWEHCVNyu
He took that as a sign of confirming his suspicions,
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMsa0Umyv7f
His shoulders sagged as he was about to turn around,
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ01DS8hxVfP
I couldn't let him go without him knowing,
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXku3aqYcom
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,
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQEz1H338hL
"I need you to listen carefully because I don't know any other way that I can say this"
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXPpfUottQv
His eyes swirled with hope, a struggle of desperation wanting to resurface in them,
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxu0havNYnr
I took in a breath "I am horrible at this, I have never felt this way towards anyone but you"
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdRK0AiAZul
He opened his mouth but I shook my head at him, he waited for me to continue,
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm81Jk3Lwl7
"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"
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdz7C2Ss26o
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,
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWCZnVSDmVZ
"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-"
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOwNlWehWCh
"I love you, Cian"
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1SzrNF8N3w
"Yes, even if you love us-"
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡinYrENvc0S
This time he cut himself off, eyes widened in shock,
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcFD7zw0N9e
a few seconds passed by with neither of us saying anything,
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZtAN6DjqfD
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.
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfrVFjjoIEf
"M-Mate loves us?"
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQmmcRXL1ri
His cheeks flushed a slight pink as he couldn't surpass his childish happiness.
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ81UCNY7AW7
I broke into a smile of my own,
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuyjIdWhVVq
"Yes, I love you, Cian"
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSwRyjQGtF1
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,
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRkDMcvnfBa
"W-What about m-me"
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRjvPzW0Iad
I giggled at the childish jealousy that Helios displayed,
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYJf6Q7ADiz
"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"
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa4seFhIeqE
Helios purred, it was odd for a wolf that was known for his aggressive behavior and murderous intentions.
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWTL2ws2chW
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,
208Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8CnZuYRfrQ
"No, not hopefully, we will always definitely be your only one as you are for us, always"
