"Come, let me show you," Killian said while grabbing Yifa 's hand and dragging her with him."But wait," Yifa started but she couldn't continue what she was saying because Killian was definitely not listening. He was too busy dragging her around the palace.Yifa didn't bother fighting back because she knew that Killian was stronger than her when it comes to strength. She'll just waste her energy by stopping Killian .But Yifa could clearly tell which way they were going because she has been on this route numerous times already, sometimes excited and sometimes nervous.She walked these halls with so many emotions that she wanted to let out but didn't know but as soon as she entersKillian 's room, all of her emotions die out and the only thing she feels is happiness and contentment.Happiness is seeing her mate, happy and healthy. Contentment for being allowed to be this close to Killian despite their weird relationship as mates.She learned to be satisfied with what she has and never
"Your Highness, everything is ready."The guard said as soon as he entered the room.Killian looked up before nodding,"Thank you. 'I be there."He sighed tiredly before stretching his neck from left to right. He has been sitting on this chair for hours already, non-stop scanning every document that he can find against the south.It didn't prove to be difficult to find evidence against them. In fact, it was too easy because they were everywhere. He never knew that the south was known to declare war among small cities and packs within their own kingdom.How cruel can they be? Attacking one of their own.Killian shudders just thinking about doing that to his own people. He would rather die first than bring suffering to the people around him.But he didn't want to think about it now.He had something more important to do.He stood up from his chair before letting out a long moan as he stretched his body side to side, trying to get the blood flowing back to his veins."Hey, our dear fathe
Whatever. Let's just go in because I still have some stuff that I need to do right after visiting." Killian said before opening the door to the room and heading inside.Killian expected his father to be happy when he saw him because based on Derek , their father was looking for him but his reaction was the complete opposite.His father looked angry and betrayed which made Killian 's heart hurt because he wanted to be a good son to his father and not a disappointment.Even if they had a bad start, he was doing his best to make up for those times that they weren't able to work out their relationship."Are you alright?" Killian asked while approaching his father who was sitting up on his bed.As soon as Killian came closer, his father looked away from him.Killian looked back at Derek with wariness all over his face because clearly, this was not the reaction that he was expecting.Derek only shrugged quietly because even he was confused. Before he left the room, his father was adamant ab
"It was not our intention to hurt you by not telling you. We were just really worried about your health and we would rather face this alone than have you worry and lose you earlier than we want to." Killian explained softly while approaching his father and sitting by his foot.Derek nodded in agreement, "We're sorry if we didn't think about what you'd feel. It won't happen again but just for this one time, can you please understand us?"Benedict knew his sons were right.They knew that more stress would cause his body to suffer but even if he knew that, the pain of knowing what his sons were going through while he was just inside his room was enough to almost bring him down to his knees.He wanted to be able to help them.After all, he was never there for them when they were younger and until now, even if they were getting along, he felt inadequate.He felt indifferent about a lot of things.Was it because he was dying?"I know that you had good intentions for what you did and thank y
"What did you tell her? Did she cry?" Benedict asked his son worriedly. He was worried about Yifa.Worried about her safety, well-being, and happiness. Others might think he was overreacting and maybe he is but he just wants to make sure Yifa is alright and she's happy.After everything she's been through, she deserves to have a good life. He knows almost everything about her because she wasn't afraid to tell him stories about her past as a rogue.Remembering everything she said made his heart hurt. He wished that he met Yifa sooner so that she wouldn't have to go through such hardships.A kind soul like her doesn't deserve to have life treat her that way.But it doesn't matter anymore because what's important is that she's there with them and they will be able to make her life a little better.Killian bit his lip guiltily before nodding, "Yeah, she did cry. I told her bad things about her... well, her personality."Derek looked up at his brother with wide eyes. He may have been laug
Killian sighed tiredly while climbing up the stairs where he promised to bring Yifa as a surprise.He wanted to make sure that everything was set into the plan. It wasn't extravagant as he wanted because he knew that Yifa was a simple woman, she would be happy with simple things and she'll only complain if he does something more than just simple.But compared to a while ago, he was excited to be able to do this for Yifa.But now, his feelings were confusing.He felt like he was doing something that will only lead to more confusion about what he really felt or thinks of Yifa . Adding to that fact, his father and Derek were very clear about what they thought of his action towards her, especially after their argument.Were they right? Was he feeling something for Yifa other than just friends?Was that even possible?No, it wasn't possible because Killian knew that he will never love anyone else other than Ginni because he promised Ginni that he will love her eternally.But what was he do
Yifa looked at the mirror with a smile on her face but anybody could see the clear nervousness surrounding her.She looked nervous and worried about whatever it was that was going to happen tonight. She didn't want to imagine negative things but a part of her, she felt like something was going to happen and it was not going to be good.She doesn't want to think about it but she was never wrong with her instincts before but she's hoping that this time, she's wrong.She let out a deep breath before looking at herself in the mirror again and was slightly amazed at how well she cleaned up herself.She was wearing a baby blue dress that was off-shoulders and fell right above her knee, it was tight on her waist before flaring downwards.She didn't apply too much heavy make-up on her face because as always, she liked looking simple and plain but pretty.For her hair, she tied it up in a high ponytail that accentuated her face well.All in all, she felt good about herself, and hopefully, Kill
No, no. This can't be happening.Yifa didn't know what to think or what to do with this fact. The fact that Killian left her to meet up with Amaya when he clearly promised to stay with her.Didn't he say that he was going to wait for her? Didn't he say that he'll stay because he wants her to enjoy her day?Was that all a lie? Was he playing with her feelings?Yifa shook her head in complete disbelief. She doesn't want to believe that Killian could do something so...so painful.She was looking forward to this day and even if she felt nervous, she was excited to be able to spend some time with Killian. She and him only, alone.She wasn't expecting more than just a dinner and a few small talks but it was still something and that was what kept her going throughout the day.No matter how small this day can be for Killian , for Yifa this was a dream come true. A dream that she had ever since she was small. A dream that kept her strong and fighting despite the hard life of being a rogue. A d
