Selena touched her chest in relief. That was her greatest fear. She didn't want the Alpha King to turn his back at her. She won't be able to survive it. "Have you had breakfast?" She asked. She didn't mind if the Alpha and his Beta were there looking at him. In fact it seemed like a good thing to her. "Just go ahead, I will join you later," he said. Selena didn't say anything, she just walked away. She met Lucius who was seated at breakfast waiting for her. He looked at her and smiled at her. "How was your night Selena?" He asked. Selena smiled back at him. " It was fine and yours?" She asked. "Never better," he replied. Selena was busy getting the breakfast as if she was taking it away. "Where to?" He asked. He had thought she was going to eat it elsewhere. "I'm taking it to his Highness. He didn't have dinner last night" she said. He raised a brow with amusement. "But the Alpha King never eats while working," he said. They both looked at Dylan who was seriously talki
Even when he was still Selena's mate, she had never tried to gain his attention, talk more of taking care of him. He had always had to force her to do everything. But now seeing her nicely dressed and how she was treating the Alpha King, he knew he missed out a lot. His body wanted this woman again but how can he compete with the Alpha King? "Let's continue" Dylan said and for the first time, he broke his principle. He ate while having a meeting. Lucius was just smiling and thinking things were very good with the two. Although he didn't know what his Alpha was thinking, he thought that he had accepted his mate. After Dylan's meeting, he received a call that Andrea was already on her way. This really disturbed Dylan a bit. He knew he had taken something away from Selena so he didn't want to make her so sad. Selena on the other hand was waiting for him to be through with work. She didn't forget what they talked about yesterday. She didn't want what happened between them yesterday t
They both woke up naked beside the spring. Selena realised she was lying on someone and she stood up quickly, then she saw that it was none else but the Alpha King. Seeing that she was naked she didn't know what happened between them. She covered her upper body with her hands. "Don't worry we didn't do anything. I only wanted to ease your pain so I brought you to the water" he said as he sat up. The way he was looking at her was making her shiver. Selena wondered how even without the mating bond, his looks could still affect her. "Stop looking at me," she said with a frown. " Why? It's not as if we've not gotten naked together before" he mocked. His eyes didn't for a second leave her body. Those big blue eyes were looking at her like they were saying something else. "That was when we were still mates and it's just once. Don't make it sound like it's everyday" she said shyly. A blush had stained her cheeks and she was with her eyes looking for her clothes. She didn't want to stan
"Will you be safe if you go back alone or should I see you off?" He asked with concern. Selena didn't want him to pity her or be concerned for her. These were the reasons she didn't want to leave him. She thought that the woman that got his heart was just a very lucky one and she was jealous of her. "I know these woods even more than the Alpha Marcus himself. I will be fine" she said. Because she didn't want him to say more, she ran away. This time she was already crying so hard. She didn't go to her grandmother's house as the Alpha King has said, she went to a hotel. This was her first time there. At first they didn't want her in but when she showed them the Alpha King's black card, they didn't have a choice but to accept her and treat her like royalty. Dylan on the other hand, went for a run as he had told Selena to get Selena off his mind and get his heart ready for Andrea. He had loved her for years now. Even though his father had taken her away, he still loved her. But what
" Ok then, go get us dinner. Let's eat here with Andrea" he said. Andrea frowned immediately. " With him?" She asked as if she didn't hear him well. Dylan nodded. "Why should we eat with him? He is your Beta. You are a boss to him. He should go eat on his own" she said looking at Lucius as if he disgusts him. Dylan was surprised at her words. It wasn't as if this was the first time she would see Lucius or know about him. She also knew that he is more of a brother than a beta. He was also his best friend. Moreover, this wasn't the Andrea he knows. The one that left him years ago will never say this. She would even be excited to have him eat with them. So he wondered why she said that. "Andrea, we've been eating together since we got to know each other. What's the difference now?" He asked. Lucius was just standing there. He also didn't want to be there either. So he wasn't going to get offended if the Alpha King told him to eat dinner alone. "That was before you became the Alph
Andrea frowned at him. The Dylan she knew would never care about what anyone thought or said about him. Not even his parents. He always does things damning its consequences. He just does his own thing. So his words now surprised her. "The last time I checked Dylan, you never cared about what people thought or said. When did you begin to care?" She asked with a suspicious look. She knew something was really different about him. He didn't totally seem like the man she left years ago. "I didn't change. It's just that this is not my pack and as an Alpha King, I just don't want bad gossip on you" he replied. Andrea smiled when she saw that it was her reputation that he was trying to protect. Those words make her feel his love for her the most. "Well, I don't care about their gossip. I'm going to be yours after all" she said smiling. Dylan didn't seem to have a choice than to pass the night at her place. They both went to bed together with Andrea not leaving him for a second. She was j
He went close to the door and then the door was opened and Marcus came to view. The two stared at each other. Marcus wasn't expecting to see anyone in Selena's room. Not even the Alpha King, talk more of his Beta. He looked at him with a frown and tried to peep in but Lucius's big body blocked him. "Alpha Marcus" Lucius called. "Beta," Marcus replied. The two didn't say any more words again. They just looked at each other. It wasn't until a while that Lucius broke the silence. "How may I help you?" He asked. "I have an errand for Selena," Marcus replied. " She's not in. I just had to borrow her room" he replied calmly. He wasn't going to let anyone know about the Alpha King's sleeping disorder. It would not be good at all. Marcus frowned slightly. He didn't understand why the Alpha King's Beta would choose to borrow a mere maid's room. Not even Selena's room that looked like a rabbit hole. He wanted to say more but then, he didn't want them to know his real intention for comi
Dylan was in the training gym. His aim was to get himself distracted and forget about a few things. When he woke up from Selena's room, he felt quite guilty in his heart and he told himself that it was his sickness that was making things difficult for him. Lucius was also with him. This morning's exercise was very vigorous but he didn't complain. Well, the Alpha King didn't tell him to join him, he just didn't want the Alpha King to be alone. Now they've been exercising for hours now and the Alpha King wasn't looking like someone who wants to stop. Finally when he decided to stop, Lucius was grateful. They were both stopping all over. "Why not just tell Andrea that you have already found your mate?" Lucius didn't know when he started to say. This had been on his mind all morning and he really wanted to tell him. Dylan looked at him and then looked away. He sat on one of the equipment and drank water slowly. "If she really loves you like she claims, she would know that you don't
