After being hooked to IVs and such, I had started to recover quite quickly, I still didn't want to be near Cian, I made myself very embarrassed because I was a stuttering mess and a red tomato,

After he had came back in, holding eye contact the whole time, I had ended up pulling the covers over my head, hiding myself, I wasn't sure why I had done that because it made me feel like an idiot, the doctor had calmed down and gave Cian an excuse in my place, saying that the drugs are making me act odd, to my dismay Cian had sounded amused as he had whispered over my head that was covered by a blanket "it's quite precious capturing you in this moment"

As the doctor timidly tried to talk to Cian about my health, I had sneakily got up facing my back at them and quickly pulled my hair down to hide my face while smoothing it down, I didn't want to look unattractive in front of him, I had started rubbing my face to get rid of anything stray while putting some pressure on my lashes to have them naturally curl up,

I've never done this before, not for anyone,
136Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2QJ5CeDGST
Why am I acting that way, if this is what love makes you feel, I have very mixed feelings about it, it's so new to me,
136Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3oqznAsLkY
I had tried to sneakily look at Cian, but he had already been staring at me with a small smile adorning his lips as his brown yet yellow streaked eyes turned into a pool of honey with affection,
136Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaVtnSUU6zF
How can someone have so many emotions in his eyes,
136Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZF2UkwShCU
They did say eyes are the door to a soul, but I've never experienced it, he was my first and hopefully my only one,
136Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA4dGNuLMac
I feel so giddy around him, my whole body is activated with him around and I'm so attracted to him,
136Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKRj749K2BO
After that day, I had been avoiding him as if he is a plague,
136Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJSLmpjsmDy
And he was,
136Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMMgCIa5sGS
But he was my plague, and I wanted to be infected,
136Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg4MOmFVNkJ
I sighed as I was spaced out the whole time, it's been more than a week I was avoiding him, the only times I had seen him has been for work, and it was only briefly because I didn't want him smelling me, and we were never left alone because I wasn't letting Evander leave, I had told him the situation where he had started nearly shifting into his other form in excitement, which had Cian shooting glares at him,
136Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdc4UlSsANU
He promised to help, and he has, but his patience was starting to run thin as he had told me he wanted us to mate already very politely which of course, I had turned into the color of ketchup and refused strongly,

Today, I was going to let Nemesis and Lycus back into the wild, but they wouldn't leave for the life of me, they would keep coming back into my room, clutching to me like I was their mother, so they are staying, I had already set up their place for them, the only time they were in a cage was for their own safety in case of anything bad happening and that was only at night for sleeping, otherwise they were always out and about,
136Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQX7PpBYVFO
As for now, my periods had stopped, thankfully yesterday was my last day, so now even if I was left alone with Cian, it is okay,
136Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX9Z2sgt61k
While I was trying to tidy up my room, just in case Cian bursts in at any moment excitedly, I had heard a ping coming from my phone, I quickly picked it up to look at the message,
136Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHyXBRrKQqX
It was Evander,

"Signy, there is an emergency meeting for all of the continents at the Grand Council, pack up we are going to the kingdom of Noxania"
136Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrwjKgJEupG
The kingdom of Noxania was ruled by queen Althea, the Grand Council was held there because the borders of kingdoms of Asmodemia and Olorania had overlapped it and so did the island of Merlomia.

I groaned at the thought, if this is traveling then I have to take Nemesis and Lycus too, it wasn't up for discussion otherwise they would easily kill everyone with how they haven't been trusting anyone at all lately. I've taught them a few tricks too that were related to emergencies and war things that were taught to familiars. It's safe to say they enjoyed it.

Pulling a bag out, I first packed in my undergarments and such and folded them in neatly, I had to have my uniform on the whole time with the long cloak, I also added a formal dress with a casual one just in case to be prepared for anything with appropriate shoes and heels. And lastly I had packed two sets of sleeping clothes, afterwards I had thrown all my hygiene stuff into my bag.
136Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQqAlQEWXgb
After I was done packing Nemesis's and Lycus's stuff, I had put my uniform on once again. Now I was in a bind. I wasn't sure if I should go for putting my hair in an updo while putting a stick in my hair.
136Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2x2HANLBeX
Even if I wanted to, I couldn't because Cian hadn't given me one. Mates give their partner with longer hair, hair sticks as a sign of being mated. So now I had to go with the other option of softly putting my hair in a very low pony tail, letting a few strands fly around, even if I didn't want to look pretty for the meeting, I had to.
136Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV6xuFgxZbD
After I tied the ribbon around my hair, I was finally done. I didn't need to bring the cage for my babies, they could easily go away if they wanted, but they didn't. So being with me on my shoulder with Lycus in my palms or shoulder would do just fine.
136Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEDZwM1wYgm
Once I had stepped outside, I was greeted with the familiar face of Evander as he smiled at me, trying to scratch Nemesis's head as she screamed at him horrified yet intimidatingly.
136Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFoUonkmqby
We made our way towards the carriages, of course one of us had to be with the king at all times through out the trip, Evander had teasingly wiggled his eyebrows at me as I glared at him with Lycus hissing at him threateningly in my palms,
136Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt03uGAQVis
As we both stood in front of Cian, we bowed in respect, I looked at him and my eyes wandered all over him,
136Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNQwQhtyvWF
He looked like he was the king of the whole Mother Earth, not to mention he looked like the god of authority himself. As if when he was created, he had been sculpted carefully by the gods of creation themselves. He was beautiful yet terrifying to defy.

"Signy will accompany me through this journey"
136Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0rbnqk6VbP
He decided with finality evident in his voice, he could demand me for my right hand and I'd cut it off for him.
136Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF8zOjKzUQz
I shook my head quickly to get myself rid of the thoughts, I will be spending hours in this carriage with him, I shouldn't act this way.
136Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡitl1XWHVEY
Before I could answer, Cian had turned around and began leading the way towards the carriage, but going at a slow pace for me to keep up with,
136Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlf8zcnp6L1
God, I love this man.
