Even so the Lycan's red eyes were still assessing any sign of lie from him before he swept his gaze at the other side of the room and found out the other warriors whether in their human or Lycan form had done the same as Elias..After he was sure there was no threat around him, the lycan turned around and face his mate...The lycan approached her regardless of her fear. He didn't know anything else and all that he wanted was his mate but she was frightened.He retracted his claws careful enough not to scratch her skin when he touched her...However, Annah swatted his hand away when she felt something touching her due to the great horror that she just experienced. This action earned a low growl from the wolf apparently he wasn't happy with her rejection.The beast didn't realize that his mate was afraid of him as he tried to touch her again."Nicklaus, you need to shift back.." Elias's voice echoed inside Nicklaus's head .."She's scared of you." The lycan didn't answer but let out
"Alannah....." Nicklaus called out to her with a slight Trace of fatigue.He glanced at the figure under the blanket and noticed she was trembling.She was indeed afraid of his presence."I'm sorry I lost control In Front of you but unfortunately I don't regret It." He'd said that he was gonna be honest with her and that was what he was trying to do.He admitted that he didn't have a shred of regret for what he'd done.. "If I were given a chance again, I would have done the same thing without a second thought, however I do regret doing that In Front of you."The night was still as the figure of the powerful Alpha bathed in the traces of the moonlight from the second window as if the guardian was also watching his confession."I promised to do anything to protect you."Nicklaus spoke again after there was still no movement from Annah.."I won't hesitate to kill anyone who dares to hurt you." Nicklaus was blunt with his confession. He didn't want to scare Annah but with their current s
The smell of tomato sauce and grilled pork wafted in the air as a faint white smoke floated from the frying pan.Annah wiggled her legs that were dangling from the countertop where she was sitting. Her eyes attentively followed Nicklaus's every move.It's been an hour since he'd insisted on cooking for her..Nickname moved swiftly as if it wasn't his first time inside the kitchen. Nicklaus also couldn't believe he could actually cook for someone but to think he did this for his mate there was nothing to be ashamed of.He stood there with a spoon in his hand while tasting the spaghetti..He'd a serious expression on his face as he tasted his creation.."I'm sure I did it right.." he murmured to himself..The spaghetti indeed looked delicious but the taste was not so convincing..Annah jumped down from the kitchen island and approached him, she grabbed the spoon from Nicklaus's hand and tasted it herself..."Too bland right?" Nicklaus asked when he looked at the frown forming between he
Her body was stiff and numb as she sucked in a breath of cold the moment she regained consciousness..It was a dream but it felt so real.When someone hand touched her cheeks, out of instinct Annah tried to pry herself away from his clutches but he was too strong for her.Fear gripped her heart when she felt his breath on her neck as his hand around her body held her tightly but then she heard his voice.."Relax, it's me ..." Nicklaus kept repeating these words into her ear with a sense of helplessness."You're safe. It's me, I'm here.." Annah didn't realize the man who was holding her until she heard his voice as he switched on the bed lamp and his face came into light. She stopped her attempt to hit him.It was Nicklaus beside her. Everything was fine, it was only a dream."It's only a Nightmare." Nicklaus was chanting that word over and over again until she became calm.Her bright eyes scanned her surroundings immediately. She wasn't in a dark place where she couldn't see anything
Where is he?""He's in the secret room inside the library." Lillard didn't hesitate to sell out his brother as he sought out Nicklaus's sympathy."What a pathetic skinwalker.." Raphael scoffed as he stood beside Elias while staring at Lillard with disdain.."He's a shame to their race.."Lillard's betrayal wasn't a common trait for the haughty dragon shifter, seemingly he had not uphold the pride of being a dragon shifter."Indeed.." Elias replied looking at the Lycans who took the stairs to the second floor. Not many dragon shifters were living in that magnificent manor, only Lillard and a few others lived there..If Lord Narciso insisted on not making an appearance then Nicklaus wouldn't hesitate to use force after all they were no matter for him anyway...Not long after that loud bang could be heard from the second floor which only means they'd found Narciso and he decided to kick up a fuss...Lillard was still kneeling on the floor with both hands clasped together..."Would it be
It was only a matter of time before he found the real aggressor, but he thought he could save his time by confronting the dragon Lord directly...The only Matter was the dragon lord was more stubborn than the last time they met..."Tell him what he needs to know please!" Lillard whimpered as he looked at his brother with pleading eyes...They were the only royal blood left and if Nicklaus was gonna kill Christopher then Lillard would rather die as well...The responsibility for being the most extinct creature wasn't something a coward like him could bear..Christopher had spoiled him so much until he lost Lillard's identity as the prideful creature.."Say something, brother!" Lillard was trembling.Nicklaus stared at the bloody scene with a nonchalant expression..A low growl escaped his lips as he stared at the brothers with a look of dissatisfaction..He wanted to sort out this issue as soon as possible so he could go back to the mansion with Annah...His thoughts kept running to
"So what's it gonna be?""Supreme..... Alpha...." Christopher stuttered.... "We have been living in disgrace thanks to our predecessor's betrayal. We can't live lower than that.."It was humiliating and as a haughty creature, dragon shifters couldn't live that way...If it wasn't to save their race they wouldn't ever stoop that low..."Oh I'm not necessarily interested in your business.. you can keep your company and your manor." Nicklaus said all those things as if he'd thought about it thoroughly.No one could understand what was going through his mind.."Or maybe I should kill you all here, right now?" Nicklaus left no room for negotiation..Nicklaus wasn't in the mood to be negotiated with..Christopher made a stupid deal with the Sloth and that cost him everything..Left with no choice, Christopher Narciso agreed to Nicklaus's condition..." I'll give you everything you want.."With those defeated words the two wolves holding Christopher down released him, Elias also did the same
"I won't hesitate to kill you should anything happen to her!" Christopher barked as his Golden eyes turned red with anger..However the stranger chuckled heartily as he stared at Christopher with eyes filled with nothing but ridicule..."You can't kill what's not alive, my friend.." he tilted his head as he scrutinized Christopher with an amused expression...Christopher clenched his jaw tightly as his veins bulged out with pressure.."I know Nicklaus was here with his mate... Can you tell everything I need to know?" "Do you really think Nicklaus will ever have a mate? The Greys are being condescended to never have a mate.." Christopher scornfully said."Oh dear, you know nothing about the ways of the guardian.." the man lazily walked towards Christopher but didn't try to attack him.."She's quite fickle..." "She's indeed his mate.." Lillard suddenly spoke up after being silent for sometime.."What did you say?" Christopher suddenly retracted his claws as he stared at his brother
