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.
114Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCrLBGKOfdg
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.
114Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4TjRu0BhH8
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.
114Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmRUSzpWLXm
Once we were inside, Cian had closed the door and locked it to which my heart pounded even more,
114Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡipYawh4j2K
what is he going to do,
114Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLSxYvxwggZ
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,
114Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5OCpTbWikH
I gulped as he stepped closer, and I subconsciously stepped backwards,
114Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5WgFN6lPbi
He could easily catch up with me, but I could tell he enjoyed chasing me slowly like a predator would with its prey.
114Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeQJisqloJ5
Then my back hit against a hard surface, I was pressed against the wall as he leaned down to be eye level with me,
114Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmckz0w7IzL
His minty breath fanned my face with the proximity of our closeness, he then lowly whispered with his deep voice
114Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu8bJhnwysa
"You have been very cautious lately, my love"
114Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiUWw1CDL8n
I gulped audibly at his words, dreading the question that was about to get out of his lips,
114Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5o4kAVNzqi
"Tell us, little mate, what's wrong, di we scare you?"
114Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL7Xd9XfQRl
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.
114Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbBEyoDEe99
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,
114Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqgAb8S0xyj
he doesn't seem to reject the mating bond either, quite the opposite actually,
114Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwtEv8zVJ16
So I was thinking, maybe I could tell him,
114Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWYNTD6kAFq
Maybe I could open up and tell him that I have developed feelings towards him,
114Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf4UsmBPSb1
That I love him.
114Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRB2dwjilSE
I opened my mouth, not knowing how to get the words out as my lips moved with no audible sound coming out,
114Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGdWnX4ASqM
He took that as a sign of confirming his suspicions,
114Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3mHupOFFby
His shoulders sagged as he was about to turn around,
114Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbY84RuyKnJ
I couldn't let him go without him knowing,
114Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSC0SR42wO7
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,
114Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXcPQOdPm6v
"I need you to listen carefully because I don't know any other way that I can say this"
114Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAKC7hQggd6
His eyes swirled with hope, a struggle of desperation wanting to resurface in them,
114Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGLWIqSpUF3
I took in a breath "I am horrible at this, I have never felt this way towards anyone but you"
114Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwP8j9MhAY3
He opened his mouth but I shook my head at him, he waited for me to continue,
114Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2lKk93UgDn
"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"
114Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCOwAVbgicD
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,
114Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgh5MvgzwKW
"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-"
114Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyJilviUnxX
"I love you, Cian"
114Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUMWJfnFtqc
"Yes, even if you love us-"
114Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiUtZJt9jkM
This time he cut himself off, eyes widened in shock,
114Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqf86CjgcOB
a few seconds passed by with neither of us saying anything,
114Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLWn6UH24FV
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.
114Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN0TEgn9tL2
"M-Mate loves us?"
114Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiQH02OlfpF
His cheeks flushed a slight pink as he couldn't surpass his childish happiness.
114Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX8I13ODGJM
I broke into a smile of my own,
114Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGkzSI2LsqV
"Yes, I love you, Cian"
114Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfFV5qQROhD
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,
114Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTvbV2Pa0EC
"W-What about m-me"
114Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHk7JjHKRyG
I giggled at the childish jealousy that Helios displayed,
114Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6PN5cAwoXv
"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"
114Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUP92io8aR8
Helios purred, it was odd for a wolf that was known for his aggressive behavior and murderous intentions.
114Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7dxjJljxxd
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,
114Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgku1R21mPq
"No, not hopefully, we will always definitely be your only one as you are for us, always"
114Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLvqxltgQPl
