When Romeo returns home, he can't stop thinking about Silver's proposal. It was incredible how hope seemed to refuse to die. Now, in addition to his aunt, and the two friends she had mentioned, he had Lorena and Silver, and according to what he understood, even Shane, Julius's best friend, was at their side. It reminds him of Octavian, and how he proved to not be the friend he always thought he was. He regretted his death, but he regretted the betrayal more.He took a shower and, as had happened since he was trapped there, the hot water on his cold body reminded him of the moments he and Julius shared in the shower. It made him smile, but it didn't stop the tears from falling. The images that he had seen when he looked at the obsidian that formed the mausoleum emerged in his mind, and he almost fell, with the chill that ran through his body. He knew something similar could happen if Julius was caught in his father's nest, so he had to be careful.By now, Lorena must have already arriv
Silver was worried. Not that the king killed him, but with the king's insistence that his son have sex with someone. This was not normal. The king hated Orpheus' behavior, and everyone hated the idea of one day, a promiscuous being like him, reigning over them. How could he even think about making Romeo like his brother?Silver continues to sigh. If he couldn't help his prince by contacting Julius, he would claim that he was with Romeo intimately. He knows that when he stops pretending, his life and career will be over. None of his colleagues would respect him. He would be equated with the women that Orpheus ate. It would be another royal slut. But Romeo had entered his heart. Not as a lover but as her prince, his true prince, and the one he hoped to one day see reign. If Romeo ascended the throne, the war would end. He was sure of it. Perhaps at that time, he could seek out his companion and beg his forgiveness.Silver smiles. His mind had a life of its own. He daydreamed about the
Lorena seemed to ignore what Shane was desperately telling her. She approaches Julius and hands him a letter.- My lord sent this letter to you. If you want, I'll wait for a response.- Are you waiting for a response? – Shane says. – Are you going back?- Where would I be if not next to my lord? My place is at my lord's side. I'm his blood slave.- You can not. – Shane says in a panic, grabbing the girl and forgetting that he was naked.The girl blushes and looks up. Shane immediately covers himself and blushes.Julius turns his back to them, indifferent to their feelings, and goes to sit down. With hands shaking, he opens the letter. His heart seemed to want to come out of his mouth and his eyes contained tears that threatened to come out.“Julius, my life. I'm dying without you. I don't know how you are or if my father still pressures you. Today was almost the day my father married me to a monster, but the monster proved to be more of a monster than he imagined, and I escaped. I kno
Julius and Shane get dressed, and Lycaon uses the scent inhibitor on the human.- What's that? – she says, waving her hands to ward off the vapor coming from the aerosol.- It is a product that hides your scent. That way, the guards won't smell you.- I don't smell bad. – she says indignantly.- Only a human would think that. – Lycaon grinds between his teeth. – It’s, so they don’t feel you and capture you. It's not because you smell bad.The girl understands and lowers her hands. Lycaon finishes spraying it, and puts the aerosol in the bag. The 4 start the path back to the pack, and to Lycaon's room. The girl, when faced with the dungeon, gets scared and almost screams in fear, but Julius silences her by putting his hand over her mouth.- Do not be afraid. It's a secret entrance.Suspicious, she follows them, and when she reaches the old wolf's room, she is surprised by the richness of a room, in the end of the dungeon.- Welcome to my humble room. – Lycaon says. I'm sorry I don't ha
- You love my master very much. As much as he loves you. I can see that. I'm glad to know. I hope that one day you two can see each other again, but if that's not possible, I'll be back next year.The tightness that Julius feels in his heart with that little quote, “next year”, almost makes him lose the strength in his knees. It was a death sentence for a passionate heart. He lets out a small whine, but smiles. He wasn't going to tell the girl about his plan to go see Romeo. If the girl was caught, at least she wouldn't know that.When she puts the letter in her coat pocket, Julius gives her another piece of paper.- This is my phone number. I know it shouldn't be possible, but give it to Romeo. If one day he can, tell him to call me.Lorena takes the paper and puts it in another pocket, with a nod.Julius was back in his room. Lorena had agreed to spend the night in Lycaon's room, and wait for the next day to leave. She needed to rest, and when Julous left the dungeon, she was alread
Let the game begin. Silver lay down next to Romeo. He was very uncomfortable. It's not that he was afraid of his fame, but he was afraid that the king wouldn't be that interested in seeing Romeo sleep with him. For all intents and purposes, he was going to do as agreed. Both, without a pajama nightgown, just pajama pants, which Romeo had lent, lying under the blankets. They had left their clothes spread out on the bedroom floor. Anyone who looked at the scene would say they had fucked all day. - Aren't you sleepy? – Romeo asks, after Silver move around in bed for the twentieth time. - No. If I were outside, I would be on guard. - Is it just lack of sleep? - No. It's also because I'm lying in these preparations next to you. It seems disrespectful to my prince. - Disrespect? When you're risking so much for me? - I just do my duty. My life belongs to you. Romeo looks at the man. - I wish I could help you find your destined mate. You deserve to be happy. - I do not deserve it. I
Inside Lycaon's room, Julius and Shane were making plans. - When do we leave? – Julius asks. - Calm down, young prince. Just now Lorena left. It took her 2 and a half days to get here. It will take at least two days to get back to Vlad's palace. It's best to let her get there and things get back to normal. - And what does that mean? You're always putting it off. If I knew where the tunnel was, I would have gone alone. - That's why I didn't tell you where it was. But for your rest, we leave in two days, when night falls. Let's go meet my friends, and then we'll go from there. - I was thinking... - Shane says. – I could go with you two, and instead of Julius visiting Romeo, we took Romeo and Lorena the same way we go... - I know you want to have your mate close to you, but do you want her dead or alive? – Lycaon asks coldly and the most serious his friends have ever seen. - Live, of course. - Then stop being stupid and follow the plan. If Romeo and Lorena disappear from the palac
Reed bows to the king and he laughs and hugs him.- Welcome nephew. Your aunt is very happy to see you again. How are your parents?- My father is busy with my older brother. Papers are something my brother hates.The king laughs.- I'm lucky my beta loves this shit. I end up doing almost nothing.- Sir, that's not true. I only help with non-important things, such as payments, orders, invoices.- And all the boring parts of dealing with queries and problems that arise in the packs. Conflicts, etc., that is, almost everything.Reed laughs.- Exactly what my brother wanted.- Your father is a great alpha. I don't say it because it's my family. Your brother will be too. – the king says, putting his arm around his nephew's shoulders. – let’s see your aunt. She's in the living room chewing her nails. Only because she's stubborn and isn't here with me.- The aunt looks like my father. She would be his equal if she were not my king's mate.They go to the living room, and along the way, Reed
