All Chapters of Mated To The King Of Darkness: Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

"Goodnight, Oli Baby." Laura said, locking the door to her room as she slipped into the darkness that was a little by the lit furnace at the fireplace. "I want to lay with you tonight," Oliver said, his hand on the door while he looked up at Laura, ensuring that the door wouldn't come close just yet. "I wanna hear you scream my name at the top of your lungs.""You already did that this afternoon," she blushed, clicking her claws against the frame of the door. "Well," he looked up and down at her slowly, "I wanna do it again, my Raaa Queen.""Oh, Oli Baby." She moved a little, poking her head through the door, her lips grazing against his lips, while he quickly used the opportunity to deepen the kiss. "Some other time," she protested pulling away. "This Princess has some duties to attend to."Her hand snaked through the door and she twirled a finger around his braided beard. He smiled, that goofy smile that never really left his face, those eyes twinkling and full of humour.Her sun

Lady Delice had always seemed like one to hold her own, her smile ever present and the little aura of life seeping from her at a noticeable rate, but tonight, Zezi couldn't help but notice that she looked different. Her smile was gone, non-existent, her eyes seemed a little dead than usual and have sensed a nervousness in her aura. Even without the King's blood running in her veins, Zezi could pick up on that. It made her wonder how much Oliver could pick up on, leading her to be even be more curious about her past with him. She could use this distraction till it was time for her to go down to the Library, after all, she still had hours left before that. "It's been tremendously long." Oliver beamed, grasping her hand in his before she had time to oppose of his unanticipated touch. "We should catch up. What do you say?"Delice looked up at him, feeling a bitter taste raise in her mouth as his scent poured into her lungs unrestrained, reminding her of days that she would like to for

The way his almost hazy eyes had held her gaze, and how affected she had been at how close he had leaned towards her in his bed.By the Moon.She could almost feel him close by just through her memories.Damn this mate bond!Zezi bit the inside of her lips, looking away. She was avoiding the King. Hadn't seen him since she had left his room, her neck completely littered with hickeys.He was the reason she was wearing a dress with high collar and long sleeves. Despite how well, she had been doing in the hiding department, she knew she would still have to see him soon or later. Not with the mission she had in her hands waiting to be done. Determined not to let that sway her, Zezi shifted the line of conversation."Why not?""Pardon, Lady Zezi?""Asides from the King, why won't you take me with you."But Lady Delice wasn't ready to 'asides from the King' in her reply. That was the only thing she could think of. The only excuse she had abd thought reasonable."The King will not like it

"My parents were disappointed. They had high hopes and the signs I had showed, they had thought I had it in me. You know, a wolf." She paused slightly before she continued. "Every ounce of love they ever showed me disappeared. Despite the fact that I was their only child, they lead me to the boarder themselves and set me into the wild. I watch them turn their backs on me and not once did they look back."Zezi's hand stilled around Delice's, tightening as it moved further up to her shoulder. "I understand them, even right there I understood where they were coming from. My parents were mere omegas and anything more that would bring them below the Pack ranks would have been nothing more but painful shame to what they were already facing. I have forgiven them, I hold no grudges against them and I hope that they are doing fine in their graves." As lighthearted as those words had sounded, Zezi was more distracted by the whiff of madness that she had once sensed from Lady Delice's lingering

Zezi gulped, folding her arms and leaning back into her seat. She should be in the library, she should be meeting Akeem, Akeem should be introducing her to his High Pillar, her mission should be in motion by now but she had foolishly allowed her emotions to sway her and now she had missed it. What if they left the library, taking her absense the wrong way and decided she would never join the White Circle?That didn't sound as threatening as it should when she thought about it. She knew she was important to them and it would take them much more to decide that they didn't need her. But she couldn't be sure. She didn't know the White Circle enough to know how their minds worked. If they even decide they didn't need her anymore, well, that would be alright.What raised her fear though was if the White Circle sent death after her. They could even send Akeem to silence her, the mission would be smooth and easy for him, considering the qualities he possessed. He had no aura, and he hide
