Eero's PerspectiveWhen I felt our kissing was getting more intense and knew that it would lead us naked on top of the bed. I had to stop Claudius by pulling my lips from him. My mate frowned. He was about to kiss me again, but I took a step backward to distance myself from him."Eero, you don't like my kisses anymore?" He said, almost pouting his lips.I cupped his cheeks and pecked on his swollen and reddish lips."You look just like your son when sulking," I said to him.
Eero's Perspective Perseus who was holding the hem of my blouse let go of it slowly. Fear thumped at my chest as confusion and hurt succumbed to him. "P-Pup, I can explain to you. I-I will explain to you. I-I didn't mean to lie to you." "Does Papa Miguel know that I'm not his?" He asked. Perseus looked and sounded like he was close to crying. "Your Papa Miguel knows that you're not his son." "And Grandpa Codrus? How about my grandparents from Papa Miguel's side? Do they know that I'm not their real grandchildren?" "Pup, does this really matter—""It does, Mama. I need to know if all of you were lying to me." "They know. Our closest family members know. Your Grandpa Codrus and I hide the truth from the rest of the pack members of Regulus and Blackthorn, but those whom we thought should know, they know the truth about your real identity." "T-Then do you plan to tell me that the shifter you introduced to me as my Uncle was my father?" Anger began to color my pup's eyes and I was
Eero's PerspectiveClaudius smirked at me. I narrowed my eyes at him. He walks to get a bottle of his whiskey. Claudius drinks straight from it."This is why you're the perfect mate for me," he said suddenly."You were never afraid of me. You'd rather face my wrath than let me do things which you view immoral. Hurting a pup who won't be able to defend himself is wrong.""Wrong," I seconded."I don't know how long you'll be the Alpha of Regulus, but I don't want you to be remembered by the shifters as a cruel one."I walk towards my mate. I took the liquor from his hand and it slipped smoothly from his finger because Claudius allowed me to take it away.I cupped his cheeks and rested my forehead against his."The pack has a lot of enemies. I don't want our pack members and the Alpha allies to become our enemies because of your temper and ruthlessness, Claudius. Being the Alpha King may feel like you have abso
Eero's PerspectiveI narrowed my eyes at Claudius and hit his chest. My mate laughed at me before he pulled me closer to his chest. He gently sniffed the scent of my hair and then I felt him kiss my forehead."Your legs are still shaking," he whispered laughing. I raised my hand to hit him again, but he skillfully caught it. His fingers caged my wrist and pinned it back on the bed, within a blink of an eye. Claudius was back on top of me. His manhood poking my thighs."Let me rest, will you, please? I missed you too. I miss making love to you, but I'll end up limping if we do it again. I'm sore down there.""Let me check," he said. Claudius moved fast down. My lips twitched in pain and the muscles in my face twisted."It's all red and swollen. Taking a cold bath will soothe you. Should I wash you? Or do you want to take a nap first?" He asked. The sun outside was slowly leaving the sky. In an hour, it'll be dinner time.&nb
Eero's Perspective"I had to come here to tell you that dinner is waiting for us," Claudius said while his eyes sharply traced the newly-founded distance between me and Miguel."Oh, yes, because we don't have enough omegas around the realm which is why the Alpha picked us himself for dinner," Miguel whispered sarcastically."Were you trying to say something, Blackthorn?" Miguel grinned and shook his head."Did you hear me say something?" Claudius glared at Miguel even more."I was starving, I could eat a whole cow. I hope you prepared a feast for me, Claudius?" Miguel flashed a teasing smile at my mate."It's the least you could offer after I did the favor that you asked me years ago.""Every meal in the realm is considered a feast, but if you're craving for a particular dish that wasn't served at the buffet. You could request that from our private chef. They will accommodate any of your cravings.""Ah
Eero's PerspectiveCaspian and Miguel cleared their throat in a not-so-subtle way in an attempt to make me and Claudius break away from the hug that we were sharing."I think I caught a cold. I can't stop coughing," Caspian said again while he continued to force himself to cough. I chuckled and attempted to push Claudius away."They are hinting that we should stop flirting in front of them," I whispered to Claudius."I don't give a damn about them, Eero." "Why don't you two search for your fated mate or second chance mate so you won't be jealous anymore?" Claudius asked Caspian."Did you think that I'm not trying to do that? I'm desperately looking for my fate mate, dude, but maybe if you'd stop dragging my ass in different places then I'll be able to find her."Our eyes then gathered to look at Miguel, who was enjoying his toasted marshmallow. I'm in no rush to look for her. It's called fated mates, when the timing i
Eero's PerspectiveWhenever Perseus sleeps with me. I would wake up to his tiny arms tightly wrapped around my waist while his face was buried in my arm. It's the muscle cramps and the numbing sensation that wakes me up earlier than usual, and so when I didn't feel him using my arm as his pillow, I instinctively called for his name before I could open my arm."Mate, shh. He's still sleeping," Claudius said in a low voice.I couldn't help but smile and silently giggle as I saw how Perseus had wrapped his arm around his father's upper body."He's hugging me so tightly that I could barely breathe, but I can't dare whine. I like feeling this little pup in my arm," he said to me.Perseus looks tiny in Claudius' arms, way more fragile looking compared to when he is in my arms."Don't move. I'll take a picture of you two," I said to him and slowly got up, moving carefully so the noise wouldn't wake up our son.Cla
ClaudiusSeeing that the tracker that I asked Caspian to chip on Octavio's skin after he was locked in the cell was moving towards the forest. I got up from my seat and prepared myself to come after him to get my pup back and bring Perseus to safety."I don't get it," Caspian said."This part of this forest where Octavio is heading to is a dead end," he hummed. I looked down at Caspian."What do you mean by it's a dead end?""Alpha, there is no escape route. Octavio knows the Regulus territory better than anyone. It's impossible that he isn't aware that when he run to do this forest, our deltas would easily corner him, and avoid being captured by our deltas. The only thing left to do is to jump from the cliff."My lips parted in shock."I know what that old hog is about to do," I said.Eero grabbed my arm to make me face her. "You do? What is it?"But how can I tell her Octavio's evil
