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.
257Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwQcyElKHiV
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.
257Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ864OVUrpQ7
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.
257Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcvM9jE9acB
Once we were inside, Cian had closed the door and locked it to which my heart pounded even more,
257Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeLfLNp9XeM
what is he going to do,
257Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaHqHZBxTIv
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,
257Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMNgyAC7Gb7
I gulped as he stepped closer, and I subconsciously stepped backwards,
257Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOv4BukwRK6
He could easily catch up with me, but I could tell he enjoyed chasing me slowly like a predator would with its prey.
257Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbG0SmfBIXa
Then my back hit against a hard surface, I was pressed against the wall as he leaned down to be eye level with me,
257Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvvWgep71eB
His minty breath fanned my face with the proximity of our closeness, he then lowly whispered with his deep voice
257Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRKkXeMZtNq
"You have been very cautious lately, my love"
257Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1FoJpl9Xpw
I gulped audibly at his words, dreading the question that was about to get out of his lips,
257Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqclOLQjO90
"Tell us, little mate, what's wrong, di we scare you?"
257Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFhWMCoYuzC
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.
257Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7uxVMeHeTN
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,
257Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzqacfxx8FD
he doesn't seem to reject the mating bond either, quite the opposite actually,
257Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQq1ooQZ29a
So I was thinking, maybe I could tell him,
257Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeleHVkKspZ
Maybe I could open up and tell him that I have developed feelings towards him,
257Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡore5myvUBJ
That I love him.
257Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMEBkzvJuKi
I opened my mouth, not knowing how to get the words out as my lips moved with no audible sound coming out,
257Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZPESJdNYce
He took that as a sign of confirming his suspicions,
257Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwx2mheffDQ
His shoulders sagged as he was about to turn around,
257Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡndJsYMAOt5
I couldn't let him go without him knowing,
257Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2fdanD9bKO
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,
257Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4AZUjJHYkw
"I need you to listen carefully because I don't know any other way that I can say this"
257Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvxFDPl0fgd
His eyes swirled with hope, a struggle of desperation wanting to resurface in them,
257Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO2xU6n9q5f
I took in a breath "I am horrible at this, I have never felt this way towards anyone but you"
257Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHgEs8Znhtu
He opened his mouth but I shook my head at him, he waited for me to continue,
257Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH4nGC1QAWP
"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"
257Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH531dd4Ux4
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,
257Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ25Nci4YooT
"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-"
257Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKxz8bf8rvw
"I love you, Cian"
257Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2rkm6HcAON
"Yes, even if you love us-"
257Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZcju3eqRtV
This time he cut himself off, eyes widened in shock,
257Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ALEJdtzDW
a few seconds passed by with neither of us saying anything,
257Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOfjvLz8DkQ
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.
257Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCgugYJ6K1f
"M-Mate loves us?"
257Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVhTHS5kicy
His cheeks flushed a slight pink as he couldn't surpass his childish happiness.
257Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDeVUTmTz6B
I broke into a smile of my own,
257Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeRYxeOZSwJ
"Yes, I love you, Cian"
257Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpG3WTEBZer
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,
257Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0JTcIwykMI
"W-What about m-me"
257Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQDMGcPcNzv
I giggled at the childish jealousy that Helios displayed,
257Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZhZ2V5nCI6
"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"
257Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNL3Jnn2X76
Helios purred, it was odd for a wolf that was known for his aggressive behavior and murderous intentions.
257Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbCXAJbCnQ5
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,
257Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5T3138Oqhy
"No, not hopefully, we will always definitely be your only one as you are for us, always"
