"You can be a king or a street sweeper, but everyone dances with the Grim Reaper."

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.
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡljgxLnO4nB
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.
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdPCZxTjeF7
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.
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJCzR7ebzzK
Once we were inside, Cian had closed the door and locked it to which my heart pounded even more,
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvgjP7IJvBQ
what is he going to do,
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcFnCqAniW5
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,
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPgHZgJemoV
I gulped as he stepped closer, and I subconsciously stepped backwards,
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE12mp5p8PA
He could easily catch up with me, but I could tell he enjoyed chasing me slowly like a predator would with its prey.
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBlYHPDOPr7
Then my back hit against a hard surface, I was pressed against the wall as he leaned down to be eye level with me,
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb3mwPOeHlI
His minty breath fanned my face with the proximity of our closeness, he then lowly whispered with his deep voice
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRpHtXTSi7s
"You have been very cautious lately, my love"
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSJdzdKegfS
I gulped audibly at his words, dreading the question that was about to get out of his lips,
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOJOaAhzYAe
"Tell us, little mate, what's wrong, di we scare you?"
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡagmizcC0hW
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.
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEAAXzqD2Yq
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,
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFe43Jiammx
he doesn't seem to reject the mating bond either, quite the opposite actually,
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEgK6v1uRhr
So I was thinking, maybe I could tell him,
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVnxZZxDHEy
Maybe I could open up and tell him that I have developed feelings towards him,
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOGAYUd3KJV
That I love him.
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi1FpKjkWvn
I opened my mouth, not knowing how to get the words out as my lips moved with no audible sound coming out,
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLJRMHvLDQ4
He took that as a sign of confirming his suspicions,
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl49JC5TLRJ
His shoulders sagged as he was about to turn around,
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6hr2oHBB2n
I couldn't let him go without him knowing,
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxzfXtvcuyn
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,
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu37Isfyq2f
"I need you to listen carefully because I don't know any other way that I can say this"
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJJqdHZc4iG
His eyes swirled with hope, a struggle of desperation wanting to resurface in them,
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmDLx0uRTeK
I took in a breath "I am horrible at this, I have never felt this way towards anyone but you"
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhh00MWP0bM
He opened his mouth but I shook my head at him, he waited for me to continue,
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ05MHvr6ffk
"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"
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7n072kUk7z
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,
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvo4frNidJi
"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-"
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Uvy8nnJwk
"I love you, Cian"
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2OgrqwOeWd
"Yes, even if you love us-"
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLpyttM0gGk
This time he cut himself off, eyes widened in shock,
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTDPJYfxv3T
a few seconds passed by with neither of us saying anything,
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq4XG9dOuA5
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.
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4F6pbdMuvX
"M-Mate loves us?"
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv7SDUZ2zCD
His cheeks flushed a slight pink as he couldn't surpass his childish happiness.
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8oNkfMG84U
I broke into a smile of my own,
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ23z9ojdN6i
"Yes, I love you, Cian"
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFCLreAQxMH
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,
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Qt6rqRrHy
"W-What about m-me"
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7sYGrakPa7
I giggled at the childish jealousy that Helios displayed,
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkhy65r9qMP
"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"
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtpjRbKFjAc
Helios purred, it was odd for a wolf that was known for his aggressive behavior and murderous intentions.
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrCombOVwkq
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,
159Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDjhq8AbRdh
"No, not hopefully, we will always definitely be your only one as you are for us, always"
