Eero's PerspectiveEven when there were no marks and bruises around my neck, I could internally feel the pain of the assault that Beta Octavio had done earlier."Claudius, where the hell are you? Baby, I need you here with me. I'm scared," I whispered to the air, hoping that it would bring these words to him.Staring at the count of numbers I attempted to call him made me feel hopeless."Is he on the howling island?" I whispered to myself after a few seconds of contemplating. I decided to sneak out an
As I approached the little pup, he stopped playing and turned his attention towards me. I carefully observed him and noticed a crocheted charm on the sleeve of his shirt. It was Perseus, my sweet pup. I wondered if he recognized me.Although Perseus was not yet able to communicate with me using words, our bond as mother and son enabled us to understand each other. As I moved closer to him, he stretched his little arms wanting to hold me. When I leaned in, he touched my face, and I saw flashes of his own memories.I was both shocked and fascinated by what I just experienced. I pulled away from his hand, trying to understand what just happened.
Eero's PerspectiveClaudius inclined his face to me after careful consideration of Caspian's suggestion."What? Don't tell me that you now prefer Caspian's suggestion over our old plan?""Eero, Caspian has a point, too, and he isn't saying this because he wanted to torture you by keeping Perseus away from you. Let us postpone this plan of ours for now.""If we postpone this plan, when do you think we'll have another opportunity to bring Perseus into the realm?" We instantly went quiet as Perseus cried
Eero's Perspective"It's the Lady Aelice, daughter of my trusted Beta Octavio." Hearing that, it felt like the world had stopped spinning. I pulled my hand from Claudius' hold of it, and I searched for Aelice.I was hoping to see her shock as much as I was, but she looked somewhat more nervous than surprised. Aelice knew that this was going to happen."Congratulations, Lady Aelice," greeted by everyone, almost. Aelice would spare them a glare and smile, but she would nervously pan her eyes back to me.
Eero's Perspective"Whatever I want, huh?" I looked down at his pants and bit my lower lip."I don't think I'd be able to do what I want with you in the howling island. I'll be distracted by our sweet pup." Claudius equalled my fiery gazes."I like where this conversation is heading." He told me."Alexa, pull down the blinds and dim the lights," Claudius said that, a software picked up. I turn around only to see the blinds rolling down to cover his glass wall and door.
Eero's PerspectiveLooking around, I found a small CCTV placed in between the book on his shelf. The camera was so small that unless someone looked closer at it, they would overlook the existence of."Where is the footage? Is it on your phone?" I asked him. Claudius began buttoning his dress shirt. He glanced at his phone on the table."What's your password?""The date of our mating ceremony.""It used to be the date of
Eero's perspectiveThe setup for the family photo shoot last night was evidence that it wasn't just a dream."Good morning, Eero," Claudius greeted with his raspy morning voice.I was turning around to face him when Claudius surprised me with a peck. He pressed his body against mine, making me feel his morning wood."You're hard.""It happens every morning, baby, and it's not that I'm feeling horny, okay?" He defended himself, which made me laugh."Oh, so you're not in the mood to do it with me. Okay, I got it. I'm not forcing you to have sex with me—""I didn't say I'm not in the mood. Stop putting words in my mouth!" He said in a low voice that got me laughing."I'm just messing up with you, Claudius. I'm still sore you were rough with me when we did it in RGC, but maybe later? I'd be down with one round," I whispered seductively in his ear.Claudius was close to kissing me again when my wolf notified me that our pup was now awake. I pulled away from him, and he knew what that meant
Eero's perspective"Father, there's really no need for you to do that. If you really want to see me, then fine. I'm coming home tonight so that we can talk about this," I said, but the end tone from the other line caught me off-guard."Shit!" I curse, covering my face with my palm."Did he hear me? Was he really going to call all the hotels that RGC owns to check whether I checked in on one of them to spend the night?" I asked my wolf. My wolf advised me to take a deep breath, but that wasn't helping as I succumbed to total panic."What would I tell him once he found out that I didn't check in to any of our hotels?""Shit! I need to go back to the realm now or in RGC.""RGC is a better choice than I'll pretend that I'm already busy so I can dodge any of his inquiries if he ever got one." I shrieked and almost fell after I clashed with a massive frame of a man."Please send a mind-link to your pilot that he needs to fly me back to RGC. Codrus wanted to talk to me about what happened. I
