Chapter 166The news of Janiya arriving into the pack was the first thing that woke Ronan up the next morning. He flung on his cloth, rushing out of the room and into the dungeon. He was surprised to see her cell empty, the same cell he had ordered the head guard to put her back in the other day. He made his way to the visitor’s room only to see her seated there, her legs crossed and her face full with makeup.“Niya…” he called out as he entered, his brows creased.Something about her was different. The first gaze they held showed everything. In her eyes was fear, regret and alos determination. Ronan approached her and took the seat opposite her, staring straight to her face.“Did the head guard help you escape too? Or is this another ploy…“I'm here to apologize about everything that happened and tell you everything I know about all of this. If you think defeating Lucien is the end of it all and you now think you can get your crown and leave, I believe you’re deceiving yourself Ronan
Chapter 167Ronan looked at Janiya with raised brows, her request looking seemingly odd to him.“You want security?”“Yes,” Janiya retorted with a shrug of her shoulders.Ronan eyed her, scrutinizing her face carefully. Was this claimed person this scary that she feared him so much?“How do I know you’re telling the truth even if I give you this claimed security? How do I know you’re not just lying to me or making up words?”“Because I’ll never make words for this person.” She replied and walked towards Ronan, standing in front of him with her chin resting on his shoulder. Slowly, she turned her head towards his ear, her breath slightly fanning against it,“Do we have a deal?” She whispered against his ears.Ronan moved away from her, turning to face her with his scrutinizing eyes. “How do I know that you’re not lying? That..that…that it’s not a ploy between you and your claimed person.” Janiya smiled at him, her gaze peering expectantly. Even if it was a deal between her and the ma
Chapter 168As his mother stabbed the wound carefully with some paper towel, Eric could not help but clench his jaw. What if he had died that day? He wouldn’t have been able to get his revenge, or get the one thing he desired most in his entire life, power. “You should be careful with the drinks. They can cause the powder to wear off easily.” His mother said as she patted him softly.She stood up, packing her things and leaning down to place a kiss on his cheeks. “Thank you, mother.” He said with a small smile.“I love you son, and you need not to worry. Because we’re going to get everything from them, one after the other.” She said and patted him again before walking away.He didn’t know how she saved him, or how she rescued him. But he has woken up in a cave with her, with two to three guards, Ronan’s uncle and her hovering over him with tears in her eyes to treat him. The claw marks could never leave like she said, and even with a massive loss of blood, they still managed to treat
Chapter 169Ronan nodded as he stood up from his chair, walking towards Stacey and circling his hand around her,“Of course. We’ll do something.” He muttered into her ear.Stacey pulled back and found a way to escape his hug, stepping some paces back from him with a small smile on his face.“Then you need to call the elders, let them know what you’re deciding to do or what you want to do, and we can know the next line of action.”“Stacey, “Ronan, if we don’t do anything now. Soon they’ll be coming for us, right where we don't expect, and it’ll hit us bad! I don’t want anything happening to anyone again!” She yelled out, cutting him off.Ronan clenched his jaw, tilting his head and lowering his gaze as he stomped his foot quietly on the floor. He looked back up with his gaze squinted at Stacey,“Is that why you’ve been acting abrupt all this while? Avoiding me? Avoiding everyone? Have you been making your plans all by yourself?” “What?” Stacey asked in a quiet tone.“For days now Sta
Chapter 170“Eric…” Ronan’s uncle, Bernard said with a raised brow as they both shook hand.Eric smiled at him, turning his back and walking towards a chair. He took his seat and stretched his hand to the chair opposite him, asking the man to take his seat too. Uncle Bernard looked at him in shock, picking his legs one after the other to the chair with his eyes glued on him,“I get that you’re surprised. Surprised to see me alive….“Surprised to see you here. How do you know about this place?” He asked.Eric’s lips parted into a small smile, the smile also reaching his eyes, “I believe Lucien must have told you about this place then.”“Told me about…” the man started before passing, his eyes widening as he gulped down.“You’re the oracle.” Eric nodded at him, doing a small curt after it. Bernard stared at the young man in front of him awkwardly, reshuffling his brain to see if he hasn’t said anything wrong that warrants them killing him off now. For years and years, Lucien has always
Chapter 171Stacey paced back and fro in Ronan’s study room, waiting for the door to open and his arrival. She had a lot to say, words to yell out, questions to ask and she needed answers badly. Finally, she halted as the door opened only to reveal the same guard that she has sent to get him for her,“The alpha has ordered for you to come to the meeting room. The elders are there with him.” The guard relayed the message to her, bowing and silently closing the door.Stacey sighed, sighting a chair and taking her seat. She closed her eyes and leaned her head on the chair, thinking back to everything she had to say. It has been a week and yet nothing has been done by Ronan. She has carefully watched him, and apart from eating and burying his head in the study room each day, she hasn’t seen anything about him taking a step towards Eric’s matter. After a while, she decided to go and meet him, if he would like to disgrace and embarrass himself in front of his subordinates, then she’ll glad
Chapter 172Stacey gulped down, her eyes staring straight into Ronan’s hungry gaze. Taking intermittent gulps, she finally walked away from the door, stepping into the chair in front of him and taking her seat.“I’m not here to discuss pleasure and desires with you.”“Come in Stacey…” Ronan said with a small smile and a disappointed look.“It’s been days, even weeks. You’ve been tempting me with your scent every night, sleeping against me, pressing your body with mine and you won’t allow me to touch you. Till when, when would I finally be able yo touch you!” He said, his voice almost coming out stern.“When we finally get everything together and we don’t have forces against us again Ronan! There’s Eric out there that we don’t know what he’s up to! Janiya is still acting as a threat an“A threat?” Ronan cut in, his gaze squinted a bit at her. Stacey veins popped up on her forehead, taking her eyes from him as she leaned into the chair. Ronan’s eyes never for once left her, watching al
Chapter 173Ronan and Stacey laid together on the table, their chest falling and rising as they stared at the ceiling. Their legs were dangling down the table, their arms folded on their stomach as they laid in silence. “That was…” Stacey started.“Hot and passionate.” Ronan completed with his face beaming with smiles. Stacey nodded, seating up abruptly and placing her foot on the floor. She started dressing up once again, ironing the edges of her gown with her hand as she glanced everywhere.“So what’s the next step?” She asked as soon as she was done, raising her head up to meet with Ronan’s piercing gaze. Ronan just watched her in absolute silence, his gaze filled with love and admiration at every of her actions.“Would you care to tell me how you’ve been doing it? Or how you want to do it? The Eric thing…” Stacey asked again.Ronan sighed, taking his gaze off her and rolling off the table. He started dressing up too, buckling his belt before walking close to her. Pulling her i
