Chapter 15

Kai POV

As soon as she left my study, I slumped in my chair, running a hand through my hair in frustration. My wolf – Hud was howling in disappointment, angry at letting our mate leave.

“Patience,” I muttered to myself. “We can’t rush this. She’s not ready,”.

But even as I tried to convince myself, I couldn’t ignore the ache in my chest and my pants. The mate bond was there – so powerful… so undeniable. Yet Lily seemed oblivious to it. Why couldn’t she feel it too? And more importantly, how long could I resist the pull before it drives me mad?

Leaning back in my chair, I exhaled slowly trying to regain my composure. The conversation with Lily had left me as aroused as I’ve ever been. Even right now, with her scent still in my office, I was as hard as a rock and I knew it was Hud’s way of punishing me.

He kept throwing her image to my subconscious, filling me with lust.

“Damned animal!” I muttered under my breath “Can you stop playing these games. We can’t just do with her as we want,”
