Chapter 299
Before Ronan asked further, Lucien told him what he wanted to know. “It was supposed to be five years from the day we came to register the marriage.”
A smug grin spread across Ronan’s face.
Pfffft.
Five years?
The connection between Lucien and Kinnon was apparently that shallow, almost meaningless!
Ronan was about to laugh out loud.
Deep inside, Ronan had always wondered why Kinnon did not take Lucien to bed earlier.
Kinnon could pretend to be a gentleman all he wanted, but Ronan knew his rival pretty well.
.....
The Alpha of the Night Prowler Pack was a man with a burning desire for Lucien, one that did not differ much from his own.
If it were Ronan, he would marry Lucien post haste. One day after registering their marriage, if possible.
He would then seduce Lucien night after night, until the latter agreed to open his legs and let him in. They would mark each other again and again while Lucien succumbed to pleasure in Ronan’s arms, trembling and crying from powerful release.
They would embrace each other day and night, until Lucien was soaked in his scent, and Ronan in his.
The Alpha cleared his throat to banish the dirty images from his brain.
It didn’t work out for Kinnon because the High Seer had a hand in this matter.
Heh.
Hahahahaha.
Why, the High Seer was extremely helpful. Before she helped to save Lucien’s life, she helped to keep Lucien safe from Kinnon’s greedy and lustful paws!
The High Seer was practically Ronan’s best friend!
The Alpha secretly vowed to make a huge donation to the Holy Temple whenever possible.
Maybe he should do it soon.
It might inspire the High Seer to marry him and Lucien sooner than planned.
Grinning from ear to ear, Ronan grabbed Lucien’s arm and pulled him into his arms. He rubbed their cheeks together and squeezed his mate to his chest.
“What are you doing?” Lucien asked in a flat tone.
“Baby, you and I, we will get married in a week!” the Alpha announced as if he just looked into the future.
Lucien chuckled.
“So confident?”
“Yes. We should have sex more to further convince the High Seer.”
That was the way to go. Nothing beat a mating bond and healthy sexual relations.
“...”
Lucien was speechless. There was no helping the horny Alpha. All he thought about was sex, day in and day out.
The red-blonde man opened his mouth to scold his mate, but then they heard the sound of some people approaching.
For some reason, both of them felt the need to hide. Ronan and Lucien unanimously sneaked behind the tall hedges and peeked at the two people who were walking along the stony path, clearly heading toward the small shrine.
Lucien widened his eyes in surprise when he saw who they were. Next to him, Ronan was frozen on spot.
Lady Adele Fangblade was walking down the path with Dane Silverback by her side!
They went into the shrine without exchanging any words. Around ten minutes later, they re-emerged and this time they had something to say to each other.
“I still think that it is unnecessary,” Lady Fangblade remarked.
“It IS necessary,” Dane disagreed. “We marked each other. It is just right to get re-married.”
Behind the hedges, Ronan looked as if he was about to suffer from a heart attack.
Did he hear correctly? His mother and... And Dane Silverback? She marked him? He marked her?
‘Oh Moon Goddess in heaven,’ Ronan whispered via Mind Link.
‘Oh, no, no, no...’
‘Ssssssh shut up, Ronan...’
“It was an accident,” Lady Fangblade pointed out. “I was in heat and you were having your rut. We were just helping each other to relieve the tension.”
That was more than what Ronan ever wanted to know about his parents.
He wanted to scream.
He wished to bump his head against the earth until he passed out.
Thankfully, his mate prevented him from harming himself by locking his arms and dragging him further away from the hedges.
“Adele.”
Dane wrapped his arms around Lady Fangblade’s form. His hand settled on the woman’s lower stomach.
“What if you get pregnant?”
Lady Fangblade pursed her lips and gave Dane a look.
“Dane, I am old. Did you mistake me for your younger lovers?”
The man heaved a sigh.
“There is no one else. I told you that again and again, but you wouldn’t listen.”
Ronan’s parents went away, back in the direction of the Werewolf Council’s temporary headquarters.
Ronan and Lucien were still squatting behind the tall hedges with Lucien’s arms wrapped around Ronan’s.
They had the good sense to wait for almost an hour before they stumbled back to their car and drive away.
Ronan was pale with fright.
He was silent during the whole trip.
Shaken by what he heard and witnessed, Ronan went to sleep as soon as they reached the apartment.
For the first time ever, he and Lucien slept next to each other without him trying to seduce Lucien even once.
At first, Lucien thought that it was not necessarily a bad thing. Engaging in intimate relations night after night was bound to be harmful for Ronan’s kidneys.
He started to get worried when Ronan disappeared first thing in the morning while he was still asleep.
The Alpha only left a message, saying that he had to “take care of things”.
Lucien called Milroy after breakfast and questioned him about Ronan’s whereabouts.
The young man sounded so anxious and nervous.
If Lucien did not know better, he would think that Ronan was cheating on him.
“Milroy, where is he?” Lucien asked again. “Tell me the truth.”
At the other end of the phone line, Milroy slumped his shoulders and wiped beads of cold sweat off his forehead.
“Reporting to the Luna, Alpha Ronan is currently in the fertility center.”
Lucien’s jaw dropped open. He almost dropped his phone from astonishment.
Did the unspeakable affair between his parents cause Ronan to have erectile dysfunction or something?
