I slowly licked his arm where the traces of blood were. “Pay attention to me.” I whispered. The next minute I was yanked forcefully from Lyle and into his arms. I stumbled from the lack of strength in my legs.

“What happened to her?” Darren’s voice was instantly concerned. He lifted my body up, cradling it in his arms.

“She was able to use a new gift from you.”

“Already?! Shit.” Darren muttered and I felt his nose trace against my cheek. “You must be exhausted,” he cooed to me, changing his demeanor completely.

“Stay with me,” I whispered, leaning my head against his chest. How did I feel so much better just being in his arms?

I admit, when I first charged into the room, I saw red. My mate was clinging to my brother, who was holding her in return. I didn’t analyze the situation because I was already livid. I went looking for Ally, and the maid told me she went to the training arena. THE TRAINING ARENA! Gods, I flipped. I was in a blind rage when I stormed into the room, and I couldn’t think clearly.

I stormed up to my brother and grabbed his shirt. I was about to

punch him when I felt a sharp, heavenly prick against my skin. Everything snapped into focus as her tongue lapped over my skin. Gods, how did she affect me so much, instantly? I felt my dick spring against my pants and I had to hold her. I pulled her away from my brother and immediately I knew something was wrong. She felt weak, her feet stumbled, and she wasn’t supporting her weight. Damn, I hated my anger issue. I wasn’t able to see fully. My focus was pulled from the one person it should always be on.

I cradled her in my arms as I looked up around the arena. I could see things being cleaned up and blood mopped off the ground. “What happened here?”

“Some young pups lost control,” Lyle answered, and my head snapped at him. “She shifted and used her gift to subdue two of the young pups. Your woman is a beast, and I don’t think there’s anyone out there more fit to be queen.”

I was about to snap at him for bringing her down here when I felt her rub her nose against my chest.

“I love you.”

Yeah… she melted me. I felt cupid hit me right in the heart, and I couldn’t focus on anything else but her. When would I ever just walk away after an incident in the training arena? The answer was never. But right now, my feet moved away and toward the door while I lovingly held my world in my arms. Did I have it bad? Absolutely. But my love for her consumed me entirely, and nothing else mattered. She was the only thing that truly mattered to me. I had never felt such intense emotions for

anyone before. She was like a wildfire in my heart, constantly burning and consuming my every thought. With just a single glance, she could reduce me to my knees, completely at her mercy. My love for her was all–consuming, and I couldn’t imagine living without her by my side.

I stopped by the door and glanced back at Lyle. “Handle things here,” I murmured before leaving the room.

“Don’t be mad at Lyle. I made him bring me to the arena,” her sweet, angelic voice whispered out. Her eyes were closed and her head was buried against my chest.

“I don’t want you there without me.” I leaned down, brushing my lips against her head.

“Dare-” Her voice drifted off and I smiled. I’m sure she had a lot to say to me, and she would, once she wasn’t so exhausted. I wished I could take her with me in the vault, but I couldn’t. Once she was officially the queen, she would be able to enter.

I had found the secret room, but there was so much in there. Ancient documents that were never entered into the computer system, which meant I had to go over each paper one by one. I couldn’t take them out of the vault because of the magic barrier. It was the same barrier that only allowed the ruling monarchs to enter. If there were answers in there, it could take me months to find them.

I heard two people laughing, and I glanced up to see my parents walking around the corner. It looked like they had just emerged from their room. I felt relieved. I understood how they both felt,

but I had more compassion for my father. Yes, my mother wast hurt and scared, but I knew what it was like to lose control. I understood how you almost blanked. It was like watching a movie. You could see what was happening, but you had no control over it.

My father was so depressed after he hurt her. And when she wouldn’t even look at him and refused to sleep in the same room as him, it broke him. I saw my strong father crumble. I took the burden of being the king off of him, hoping it would help my parents reconnect, but it didn’t. My father tried, but my mother avoided him. I know she was hurting, too, and she was afraid. The whole situation sucked, because they had really loved each other.

They finally noticed me, and my mother’s eyes widened as she noticed who I was carrying.

“What happened? Is she okay?”

“I’m fine,” Ally whispered, but her voice was so quiet.

“Shh, just rest, love.” I kissed her forehead, loving the sexy smile that reached her lips. Yes, I felt my cock twitch in my pants. I desired her all the time, but I knew when to restrain myself. I looked up at my mother, who I could see was worried. “She’s going to be just fine, mom. She just needs to rest. She was able to use the gifts I gave her, and it has exhausted her physically.”

“She’s still getting used to the mate bond. It places a lot of stress on the body,” my father said, placing his arm around my mother. It was really good to see them like that again.
