ALEJANDRO I’m going to just admit that I was on cloud fucking nine hearing those words from her, feeling her soft, slender hands wrapped around me. She was fucking mine and although she refused to return home and was adamant about continuing this journey, I couldn’t stay annoyed with her.
She was strong and she didn’t need m e to suffocate her like her dad and brother did all her fucking life.
She was a queen, with or without me, and yeah I was worried about her, but I’d be there with her. I won’t let any shit come to her or our pup.
Yeah, that was still hard to get my head around, but I was sure fucking trying We had showered, eaten and were now back on the road. Kiara was quieter but I often saw her placing her hand on her stomach, smiling ever so slightly.
That shit confused me. How was she so happy already? In a fucking perfect world, having a pup way later would have been ideal. But nothing about this fucking world was perfect or ideal. I know I’m already thirty-four and I know some would say it’s fucking time, but I could have waited a few more years.
Let her get t o that place where she was ready and happy. I’ve fucked her up in more ways than one. Maybe I needed to show I cared in some physical way that didn’t involve pinning her against the wall and fucking her. Maybe do some mushy crap that girls liked.
The very thought made me internally cringe but I wanted to give her that fairy-tale night that I destroyed on the Blood Moon. Give her a memory to cherish…
“Al…” I looked at her. It seemed like she was going to join the small group that called me that. D “What do you think you will find in this forest?” “There’s a high chance it’s their main hideout.” I said, frowning.
She looked surprised. “Then why go alone?” “Better chance to get in unnoticed, my aim is to see if I can gather any more intel before planning an attack.” There’s a chance we’ll get caught .
” She said , frowning . ” Yeah , but I didn’t want to sacrifice countless men without even knowing what’s there . With the new knowledge , I’m hoping I can get to the Rogue King .
If he gets it , maybe I can show him we are not the fucking enemy , and if that doesn’t work then we kill him . Rogues don’t follow anyone , this fucker’s got them listening . If he’s dead , it’ll unravel that army . Besides , I’m a Lycan , I usually work alone .
Werewolves all submit to my command somewhat , well , all but you . ” ” And if the witch is there ? ” She asked . ” Guess we’ll see when we get there … Promise me one thing , if I tell you to run , you will . ” I said , now dead serious . Her heart thudded .
” I already have a bad feeling about it . I can’t abandon- ” ” Promise me , Kiara . ” I said dangerously . We were going into the fucking unknown , and I knew the risks were high .
I also knew that if worse came to worse , I could buy her enough time to run .
” How can you expect me to promise you- ” ” Fine , if not for me , do it for the pup . ” I said quietly . I saw the hurt and fear in her eyes . ” I have a way to alert Darien if shit goes wrong and they will come for you .
But ” Why does this feel like you know things won’t go right ?! ” She shouted , her eyes flashing a dazzling purple .
” Look , it’s a fucking witch I don’t know what to expect . You heard that spell bag , if you’re caught , shits going to get way fucking worse . I need you safe . Amore Mio , don’t make this fucking harder for me ? Please .
