Ceallaigh POV:
I wake up as the light just slightly creeps into the room. I have alot to get done today. I have to go interrogate the prisoners in the dungeon and I have to clean up the mess on the boarder. Lastnight I was so exhausted I just plopped in the bed with blood and dirt all over me.
Thats okay I'll have my staff clean the bedding. I look over to where my mate is. I dont even think I asked her what her name is. From the ball, to the boarder intrusion I haven't had time to interrogate my little trouble maker yet either.
She looks so peaceful, almost an ethereal beauty, but looks can be deceiving because I know her body moves fluidly as a well trained warrior. In fact I bet she can take on a couple of my top warriors.
Shaking my head I head to the shower. I feel disgusting and could use the heat from the water to relax some of my shoulders.
Lastnight I must have ripped apart a dozen rouges, which is strange because rouges dont normally travel in groups which makes me feel like this was orchestrated by someone else.
They had killed two of my guards before me and my Beta even got there. Im going to have to tighten up security. Im also going to have to hold a pyre ceremony in honor of our dead.
I get lost in thought as the heat from the shower cascades down my back relieving lastnights stress.
I barely have time to even begin to understand the flustered fuck situation with my mate before the next catastrophe happens.
Today while I'm handling everything I'm going to have to keep a couple of guards on her so she doesnt sneak out. Honestly I'll probably have to get my best guards. Ughhh
I rub my hands down my face in frustration.
Nothing is this world could just be easy huh...
Simple life is a fairy tale.
The sound of knocking pulls me out of thought.
"Are you almost done?" She says loudly
"I have to use the restroom and you've been occupying it for the last hour!" She all but yells the last word.
"I liked you better when you were sleeping" I grumble, turning off the shower and wrapping a towel around my waist.
I did have a robe I could put on, but where's the fun in that.
I open the door as the steam piles out the room and becomes mostly foggy until it clears up and I see her face.
"Fucking finally" she says and stomps over to the bathroom. "Since I'm being held here without my permiss-" she stops mid sentence and looks me up and down.
I smirk knowing that shes checking me out. I am a Lycan King. The towel is sitting right above my v cut on my hips and I'm still slightly dripping from the shower.
Yeah, she has no idea the lions den she walked into.
"Dont drool, love." I say deepening my smirk.
"Ohhh, you pompous bastard, I was only looking at mess that your pouring everywhere with your gigantic feet!" She storms past me into the bathroom, bumping my shoulder and slamming the door.
I laugh because yes I am dripping on the floor but not much and second she was cute when she got mad. I shake my head and head to the closet.
I settle on a white button up, cuffs rolled up half way up my four arm and black slacks with my black boots. I have alot of meeting and planning I have to get done today so I have to present myself business casual.
As I walk out the closet my eyes immediately land on her sitting casually on the couch with her blanket and pillow neatly put up.
"Today I have errands to run so I'm going to need you to stay still, be good, dont escape and dont kill anyone..." I look at her pointedly "Do you think you can handle that?"
"Now your asking alot from me." She smirks at me.
I walk swiftly right up to her and get right up to her face "Well, you dont have much of a choice, mate." I say "unless you want to be located in the dungeon being tortured."
"I DONT KNOW HOW MANY TIMES I HAVE TO TELL YOU IM NOT YOUR FUCKING MATE!" she yells and stands up so shes nose to nose with me.
She really does hold her ground despite me being 3 times her size.
"My name is Lanora, stop calling me mate!" She says pointing at my chest.
I stand up to my full length to were she has to stretch her neck up to look at me.
"When you're mad its sexy as fuck." I say smirking at her and she turns more red with anger. "Fine, I put my hands up, Lanora." I walk towards the door. "Stay here, I have guards posted outside the window and out side the door, I will also have one guard in the room so you dont do yourself harm."
I go to open the door and stop in my tracks.
"How about you let me the fuck out and I won't kill you in your sleep." She retorts crossing her arms.
This woman is impossible. She so brazen and so very very impossible to deal with.
"How bout you do as your told and shut the fuck up." I say walking out the door just in time for a vase to smash on the other side of the door. Laughing lowly I shake my head
"Missed." I say to which I hear her stomp her foot and let out a high pitched gritted scream.
"Liam, Clark..." I point at the two guards posted outside my bedroom "yall two and three other warriors keep and eye on her and one of yall need to keep her company inside so she doesnt harm herself" I start walking away then pause "oh also... good luck." I say.
They look between each other as if they didnt want to do it but couldn't say no to me because I am their king.
"Yes sir." They reply
"Good, also dont let anyone in or out until I return" They nod.
"Yes sir." They nod again
"Also dont speak to her, shes only going to try and get into your head, she is very trained." They both gulped and nodded again.
"Do I make myself clear?"
"Yes sir" they say in unison
"Very good" I say as I walk past them so I can carry on with my long exasperated day.
