Sacrificed To The Triplet Alpha Kings novel Chapter 260

Chapter 260: You Do Not Look Fine

"Because of the full moon?" She asked.

"Because of everything. The full moon, the incomplete bond, watching me have what he does not, feeling what happened between us last night through the bond link." He turned to look at her and his eyes were hard. "Zev is right at the surface. Lucian is fighting him every second of every day and losing ground. The only thing keeping him together is knowing that if he breaks, he kills you."

Lilith felt her chest tighten. "I need to talk to him." she said.

"Not yet." Sebastian responded shaking his head.

"Sebastian....." Lilith looked at him, wanting to argue about this, to make him see reasons why she has to go see Lucian.

"Not yet," he said again, firmer this time. "Give him a few days to settle. Right now you smell like me and Rhen and sex and if you walk up to him like this, Zev will take it as a challenge. Let him stabilize first."

She wanted to argue but she could see the logic in it, could see the worry in Sebastian’s face that he was trying to hide. She nodded slowly. "A few days."

"A few days," he agreed.

A knock at the door interrupted them and Agnes’s voice came through, warm and knowing. "Breakfast is ready downstairs when you are both decent."

Sebastian called back, "We will be down in a few minutes."

Agnes’s footsteps retreated and Lilith looked at him. "The entire estate knows, do they not."

"Every wolf in this estate can smell me all over you," he said, and that smug smile was back. "So yes. They know."

Her face went hot again. "That is mortifying."

"That is the bond." He stood and held out his hand. "Come on. Let me carry you downstairs before you try to walk again and fall on your face."

"I can walk."

"You literally cannot." He scooped her up before she could protest and she yelped, grabbing onto his shoulders. "Stop being stubborn and let me take care of you."

She glared at him but wrapped her arms around his neck anyway. "You are enjoying this too much."

"I am enjoying this exactly the right amount."

He carried her out of his room and into the hallway, and immediately she felt the eyes on them. A maid at the end of the corridor froze mid-step and stared. Another wolf....a young male she did not recognize....stopped and turned to watch them pass, his nostrils flaring as he caught her scent. Sebastian growled low in his chest and the wolf immediately looked away and hurried off in the opposite direction.

"They are all staring," Lilith whispered.

"Let them stare." Sebastian’s arms tightened around her as they descended the stairs. "You are mine. They can look all they want but they will never touch."

More wolves in the main hall now, all of them stopping to watch as Sebastian carried her through. She could feel their eyes tracking her, could see the way they tilted their heads and breathed in and knew exactly what they were smelling. Heat crawled up her neck and into her face but she kept her chin up and her eyes forward.

Sebastian pushed open the dining hall door with his shoulder and carried her inside, and the tension hit her immediately like a wall. Nicholas was already seated at the table, his posture relaxed but his jaw tight, his eyes sharp as they tracked Sebastian’s movement across the room. Lucian was there too, sitting as far from Nicholas as possible, his hands flat on the table and his eyes....

Gold.
