"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.

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.
188Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV40nnotX0R
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.
188Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSxtop3x1jc
Once we were inside, Cian had closed the door and locked it to which my heart pounded even more,
188Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeCp5JAOiIW
what is he going to do,
188Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFeHIGd9oKZ
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,
188Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnZuo3aOsEw
I gulped as he stepped closer, and I subconsciously stepped backwards,
188Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWeJ2n0XocO
He could easily catch up with me, but I could tell he enjoyed chasing me slowly like a predator would with its prey.
188Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡplYBetDV7O
Then my back hit against a hard surface, I was pressed against the wall as he leaned down to be eye level with me,
188Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7cQAZDD4mq
His minty breath fanned my face with the proximity of our closeness, he then lowly whispered with his deep voice
188Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs1C2ITLSBV
"You have been very cautious lately, my love"
188Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx5wLdPTpnO
I gulped audibly at his words, dreading the question that was about to get out of his lips,
188Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnbyVId18um
"Tell us, little mate, what's wrong, di we scare you?"
188Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqpEcbqLXJ5
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.
188Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJwODx4d59E
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,
188Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeRo2ogYXGx
he doesn't seem to reject the mating bond either, quite the opposite actually,
188Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeNjApYtDiG
So I was thinking, maybe I could tell him,
188Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt8Lxg8yMtl
Maybe I could open up and tell him that I have developed feelings towards him,
188Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwOXORUQHeo
That I love him.
188Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrqHRpR2k1e
I opened my mouth, not knowing how to get the words out as my lips moved with no audible sound coming out,
188Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgtBOiE2baJ
He took that as a sign of confirming his suspicions,
188Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD98tuE0Ot9
His shoulders sagged as he was about to turn around,
188Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdhgGyYZnYw
I couldn't let him go without him knowing,
188Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHZBlcOO9Qi
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,
188Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCBC8DmYQbB
"I need you to listen carefully because I don't know any other way that I can say this"
188Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrCrFDuFCJa
His eyes swirled with hope, a struggle of desperation wanting to resurface in them,
188Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOi8M8795yL
I took in a breath "I am horrible at this, I have never felt this way towards anyone but you"
188Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT3N0ZuISJ3
He opened his mouth but I shook my head at him, he waited for me to continue,
188Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ95J5YKW1ra
"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"
188Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrQDWwEtTGs
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,
188Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpUqAq89Yk1
"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-"
188Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmht82PmQYs
"I love you, Cian"
188Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCkdwBnklUk
"Yes, even if you love us-"
188Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtBlLgCdChD
This time he cut himself off, eyes widened in shock,
188Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWAFTguxoJQ
a few seconds passed by with neither of us saying anything,
188Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDMhh10kPhe
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.
188Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiWRwod3DVx
"M-Mate loves us?"
188Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNBWDiV2Fpt
His cheeks flushed a slight pink as he couldn't surpass his childish happiness.
188Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrvfJ6mWUoh
I broke into a smile of my own,
188Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPvYT1gqzDQ
"Yes, I love you, Cian"
188Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR8Rid4G1XN
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,
188Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVL0tV1DOHy
"W-What about m-me"
188Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR1NQ63JeQt
I giggled at the childish jealousy that Helios displayed,
188Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiyieHlp4ZP
"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"
188Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgrDKLGIHCH
Helios purred, it was odd for a wolf that was known for his aggressive behavior and murderous intentions.
188Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0IkgBKGMj7
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,
188Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYRsnT2x29I
"No, not hopefully, we will always definitely be your only one as you are for us, always"
