MILAMila's heart has never thudded so wildly as it did at the moment. No, it was not because she had just saved Arthur's life by killing at least ten men, but because of the way he was looking at her.What was he thinking? Mila wondered as rain fell heavily around them. She took back her hands from his grip and wiped her face. He took another step back as the final marks of black mud - the one she always used to cover her face - washed away.Was he enchanted too? Or was he immune like Rah? Mila had to test."Arthur," Mila spoke, "sit down."Arthur looked confused. He stared at their surroundings, then stared at her. "Wet, isn't it? Why would I sit down?" he asked, puzzled."Because," Mila stressed, "I want you to sit down!"Arthur looked at her, "Umm... that's a weird ask but okay!" and he bent on his knees and sat on his heels.Mila's heart gave up. She too fell to the floor, tears mixing with rain drops. Arthur was not immune, it meant he was not... not..."Hey," Arthur spoke as he
ARTHUR"She is the one," Sebastian purred. "Where was she for so long?"Arthur pulled back and saw her face. Her stunningly, beautiful face. Her cheeks were brilliantly pink right now, but even before there was a hint of rose on them. Her nose was perfect, her cheekbones were high and arched, and her chin was slightly pointy, giving her face a perfectly symmetrical look."You are so beautiful," Arthur whispered, glistening her face with his moist breath. She inhaled his scent and smiled. She still had her eyes closed as if she was still savouring the taste of his lips."Kiss me more," Mila whispered too, now raising her hands and entwining her fingers around his neck. Arthur didn't need telling twice, he pulled her close again and covered her lips with his. Her lips parted more and she took charge. As she sucked on his lower lip, Arthur felt his entire body tremble. "She is the one... I tell you," Sebastian repeated, feeling the heat all over his body.Urgh! Arthur growled as he pul
MILAMila took care of Tony while Arthur hunted for some wood. Tony's injuries were grave and she had to use my magic to heal him."Grace," Mila muttered as she tried to find Arthur. He was out of my sight - human sight. "Look for him, please."And Grace obliged. Suddenly everything turned focused and things sharpened. Mila's senses heightened and she could feel him better. He was behind the big stone, the one against which she had found him, hiding from the enemy. "Thank God for this stone, else he would have died too," Grace muttered as she looked around. "And we are alone... Arthur, you and your suitor - Tony."Mila laughed at the mockery from Grace's side. "You know why I had enchanted him, he would have killed me otherwise," Mila spoke, feeling Tony's forehead. "He is getting better though.""Arthur needs him, make him not just 'better', make him perfect," Grace ordered.Mila looked in Arthur's direction and dared again.Placing both hands on Tony's head, Mila muttered, "SANA".
MILA When Mila came through, it was noon. Sun was blazing over them and she was lying comfortably on a bundle of cloaks. "How are you feeling?" Arthur asked the moment she moved. "You gave me quite a scare," he spoke affectionately, helping her get up. "Did you make the poor horses stand in scorching heat so that I can be spared?" Mila asked, thoroughly enjoying Arthur's attention. "I could not let the sun burn you," Arthur muttered. "You are..." he paused abruptly, unable to decide what she was exactly. A blush crept on her cheeks at this, and he was about to bend down, hopefully to kiss her - at least that's what she wanted, but another voice stopped him. "Oh, thank goodness, you are awake and alive," Tony too sat beside her and held her hand. "You feel better?" Mila asked him seriously. "Me?" Tony looked perplexed. "I am as healthy as a horse," he laughed. "How are you really?" and he made to touch her forehead to check her temperature but Arthur grabbed his hand. Arthur's
ARTHURIt seemed to Arthur that Mila had slapped him. He never had met a girl who didn't desire him! He was the alpha - well, to be alpha, and he was the next in line for the throne. "But she does desire you," Sebastian spoke in Arthur's head simply. "Maybe a little too much," Sebastian added."But then why is she walking away," Arthur moaned as he saw Mila walk towards Tony."I think she wants you to choose," Sebastian spoke reasonably."How can I choose her over Chloe?" Arthur grumbled. "I mean, yes, I like her, but I have already accepted Chloe as my mate. We are set to tie the knot in coming years.""But Chloe is NOT your mate," Sebastian shouted in Arthur's head, making him wince.Mila turned suddenly as if she knew about Arthur's dilemma and pain, but after giving an appraising look, she looked away."I want her," Sebastian moaned."Yeah?" Arthur gave a snort of a laugh, "Join the club!""Choose her," Sebastian beseeched. "She is not even a wolf, what would you do? Fuck a hum
MILA Mila felt a tingle of laugh as she saw Arthur's confused expressions. "What do you mean by their protection?" Arthur asked with comical expressions. "Oh, you are safe, if you that's what you are wondering..." Mila laughed loudly now. "Him," Mila turned and pointed at Tony, Arthur too looked at him, "not so much..." "What do you mean?" Arthur asked very seriously. "Can I tell you a secret?" Mila hesitated. "Always," Arthur spoke quickly. His immediate reply boosted her confidence but she still hesitated. As she bit her lips, pondering over how much she could trust him, he grabbed her hand and spoke earnestly, "I would never betray your trust. I cannot express in words, but believe me, you, you mean a lot to me..." Mila sighed as she stared at his fingers on her wrist. "There are very few people who can touch me, you know," Mila smiled, wrapping her own fingers on his hand. He looked down at their hands and smiled. As their horses bumped and expressed their irritation by jum
They galloped at top speed and Mila halted only when they were on the outskirts of it.To the outside world, i.e. normal people could only see dense fog. The aura around the place was so solemn and dark that no one dared enter it. But Mila could see through – all thanks to Grace, and so could Arthur and Tony.“What is this place?” Arthur wondered, stopping beside Mila and gazing inside. Her glowing eyes could see everything. The dark, the vines, the perilous paths.“I see something move,” Tony remarked and Mila noticed that his eyes were glowing too.Mila followed Tony’s gaze and saw what he was seeing. Up ahead the path, around ten feet inside, a red flower was blooming and shrinking every few seconds.“What is doing this?” Arthur wondered.“Magic,” Mila whispered as she climbed from her horse. Arthur and Tony followed suit.“You both should wait here,” Mila spoke, and while Tony nodded due to the enchantment, Arthur’s face turned furious.“I am not letting you go inside alone,” Arth
MILAMila moved out of the fog with the precious flower in her hands. Arthur was lying still on the ground and Tony was crouching beside him."He is still unconscious," Tony muttered as Mila knealed beside Arthur."Not unconscious," Mila sighed as she placed her palm on Arthur's cheek, "just asleep."And as if he was waiting for her touch, Arthur stirred."What?" Arthur woke with a start. "What happened?""You lost consciousness," Mila smiled."What happened to you?" Arthur asked, abashed. The horror in his wide eyes said more than enough. Mila touched her face and felt her fingers get moist. She had blood all over her body."You are hurt," Arthur snapped as he sat up straight. "You need a medic, where does it hurt?""Nowhere," Mila smiled.But Arthur was not willing to listen. He was already on his way to his horse. Mila grabbed his hand and stopped him."Listen to me," Mila insisted but Arthur was babbling something. "Please listen to me, my love. Do you have a moment to hear me out
