453-Kiss is The Deal
“Okay! I get it. So, when are you fighting him?” I asked, as I
thought he was joking and making fun of me for asking such an obvious question.
“Whenever you are prepared for a match,” he said, not backing away from his statement.
“Wait! you are not serious, are you?” Janet had to get his attention since he wasn’t being straightforward with me. Even she found it ridiculous. How the hell will I fight an alpha king without a wolf? And even if I had a wolf, I would still be an omega. There is no way I could fight him.
“I’m serious,” Theo said, shrugging.
“Enya can decide whenever she is ready, and we can challenge him,” Theo added, and by this time, he had p*ssed me off.
“So, this is your master plan to get me killed?” I scoffed and clapped my hands to let out a cr*ckle. “You want me to not only lose and get killed but also get humiliated in the ground for challenging an alpha king?” I raised my voice as I realized why Theo had brought me here.
“You are taking it wrong,” he muttered without blinking. His jaw clenched when he saw me shake my head at him and turn around to leave.
“I have heard enough. You really thought you could fool me and make me jump in a pit of fire?” I was grunting and briskly walking away from him. Janet and he started following me, but after he gestured at her to leave us alone, she slowed down and eventually stopped.
“If you will stand still and let me explain, you will know I am not that big of an a*shole,” he was yammering after me, almost sprinting at this point when he noticed how fast I was reaching the mansion.
“Where are you going?” he finally asked, walking beside me at this point.
“I am leaving your pack,” I grunted, briskly running upstairs to the room where my bags were. I don’t know what happened, but it struck me right in the heart when he made fun of me by saying I should challenge Corbin. There was a time when I could have done that, but now it is not an option. I would lose my life if I went against Corbin.
“Enya!” Theo sighed, but stayed silent for the rest of the time. He silently made his way into the room behind me and stood with his hands in his pockets this time.
“I was a fool to think I will be safe here,” I grunted, grabbing my bag and feeling like an idiot for unpacking the very minute I have entered his room.
“That is the problem. I don’t want you to think you can be safe anywhere.” As he said that, I turned to him and stared at his face with my eyes wide open.
“No! Oh sh*t! It sounded wrong.” After a brief pause, he shook his head vigorously and approached me.
“What I mean is—- Enya! You are not the one who is born to be protected, you are supposed to be enough for yourself. The thought that you are weak is ridiculous. After everything they did to you in these two years and even before that, don’t you think you deserve to be more than just a Luna?” He
grabbed the bag out of my hand and muttered aggressively. The frown on his forehead and the anger in his eyes when talking about my two-year journey made me look away from him.
“What you are saying sounds very pleasant to the ears, but it is impossible to happen. I have lost my lost, my powers, Theo!” I turned to face him and watched his face go blank when he saw me crying.
“Hey!” He held my hands instantly and rubbed them between his hands.
“What are you doing?” I frowned, confused by how his brain
worked.
“I am trying to relax you. Oh, wait! A massage under the feet works good,” he said, nodding to himself like an innocent child, which melted my heart. He looked so worried when he spotted tears in my eyes.
“As for the challenge, do you seriously think I will shove you into the round without any preparation? I have made excessive plans to help you get your wolf’s back,” he said, making me sit down in the bed and get on his knees in front of me just so that he could keep holding my hand in his hands.
“These people used you, your courage and intelligence, to save their packs and then when you lost those powers, they tossed you aside. Enya! I don’t know about you, but it angers me more than anything else. If I could, I would burn down the entire world for you, but I want you to do it. Because I know you are capable of holding that status. You were once a creature that everybody feared; you can be that again.” Every
N
single word spoken by him was filled with affection and love for me.
I was shocked at how he still believed I could be the powerful alpha queen, even when I currently have nothing.
“And yes! I didn’t come here to make you mine alone. I came here to help you make everything yours,” he said, making deep eye contact with me and making my heart sk*p a beat.
“You are not alone anymore, Enya. I am here with you,” he said and bobbed his head. I was just silently staring into his beautiful eyes when I noticed something.
“Your eyes!” I said, and he raised his brow. “You took everything from him?” I sighed, lowering my head.
“Well,” he sighed, he didn’t know what to say.
“Why don’t you release him? He will not cage you this time, and together we will stay as mates,” I pouted, hoping I could convince him. If he lets Thiago out and stays inside him, he will enjoy me being his mate, but Thiago is trapped and can’t
even come out.
“Please!” I requested, and Theo closed his eyes before he mumbled.
“Hmm! Kiss me!” he demanded, making my eyes grow in size. So, that would be it? If I kiss him, will he release Thiago?
“What happened? You can’t even do —,” he hadn’t finished yet when I bent over and pressed my lips against his.
