"My sweet Rosie!"Calleb called her na cheekily and ran toward her with a bright, big smile on his face.
If he was in his wolf form, then he would have been wagging its tail by now.
Calleb hugged her for a second, but then he released the girl, while scouring their surroundings. "You are alone?"
It was very rare to find Rosie alone, she was often found accompanying Bree or one of her twin brothers would follow her.
"I am alone," Rosie said timidly, she slightly pushed him away and glanced at the long corridor, afraid if there was soone, who would catch her in this position.
Yet, Calleb didn't want to let her go and hugged her again, happy there was no one around, who would scold him if he was too close to Rosie.
"Soone will see us like this," Rosie reminded Calleb, as she patted his back, but the happy Gamma couldn't care less about anyone else when he had finally got a chance to hug her. This was a rare occasion worth celebrating for him.
"Let them see, they already know that you are mine," Calleb whispered into her ear and that made Rosie's heart fluttered, as she hugged him back.
It felt so nice to be hugged like this and she had never felt this feeling before. The feeling of being loved and protected.Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click /book/the-love-of-a-lycan_13952362506619705/bad-feeling_50416040181556334 for visiting.
Of course, Rosie didn't lack of love from both her parents and her brothers, but being with Calleb was entirely a different thing. She felt whole and cherished every second that she spent with him.
After hugging and giggling for a few more minutes and ignoring the questioning gazes from the guards, who had to take a detour to avoid the love birds to avoid being third wheels, Calleb finally released her.
"Why are you alone out here?" Calleb started asking, as happy as he was to see her alone, but at this ti, he was also worried that sothing might happen to his mate.
"Oh, I want to ask you if you had dinner, have you eaten already?" Rosie asked, rembered what was her purpose to see him.
"No," Calleb answered readily, even though he had already eaten, but he would never turn down Rosie's offer to be with her.
"Let's eat in my place," Rosie said, looked at him shyly and tugged his shirt to follow her.
Calleb laughed upon seeing how demure his mate was. He twisted her hand and placed it on his h.i.p.s, while he placed his on hers.
Rosie was surprised, but she didn't mind it, as they walked along the corridor.
Actually, inviting Calleb for dinner was her idea, and today her father was less strict on her, since he saw how spiritless she was when she couldn't see her mate for three days straight.
That, or the fact that her mother's voice finally could be heard by her father and finally he accepted the fact that his little girl had finally found her mate. It was not wise to keep mates from each other, especially when you just found them.
And when Rosie was about to look for Calleb, Sophie even scolded Sterling when he asked the twin to follow her.
In the end, her mother won the arguntation and Rosie could have so ti alone with Calleb.
"Don't you think the weather is very strange?" Rosie asked, while staring at the night sky and the thunder from the murky clouds. "I don't even rember when the last ti I saw the sun."
Calleb followed her line of sight and nodded. Agreeing. "Don't worry, everything will be fine." Right?
Needless to say, this must have sothing to do with the devils and Rosie didn't need to be told twice to understand this.
They could only hope that they would go through this without any unprecedented incidents and eventually enjoy a happy life ahead. It wasn't impossible, right?

"How is the king?" asked Erald in low voice, the leader of the fae. She stared at the tent, where Jedrek was residing these few days.
"He needs more ti to recuperate," Lilac said, as her eyes glued onto the wall of the city in front of her.
"I can feel all the lycans becoming more and more restless because they couldn't see their king for so long," Erald contemplated.
Jedrek was not in good condition since the battle with those wicked spell-casters. No one knew what happened to him, since all the warriors were fine now after they rested for a day, but Jedrek's condition didn't get any better.
It?worried Lilac even more and she couldn't even think straight nowadays.
Why did Jedrek fell ill when those lycanthropes, who fought alongside with him were totally fine now? Was there a certain curse that hit him during the battle?
Yet, no one could confirm that because there were too many curses and spells being thrown at them during the fight.
Sebastian approached Lilac. "We can't wait any longer," he said.
"Why?" Lilac frowned at him ready to argue if it was necessary. As their last interaction didn't leave a good impression. Lilac last count how many tis she had to ward off Jedrek's generals from approaching him, every single ti they ended up on a different note.
However, this ti Sebastian shook his head, as if saying that he didn't an to aggravate his queen.
"We didn't plan to stay here for more than a week, thus we are running out of ransom now, adding the faes to our lot, the ransom that left is only able to provide us for less than three days," Sebastian tried to explain their situation.
Lilac squinted her eyes, she knew that this problem would co sooner or later.
"Either we charge toward the city without the king, or we have to retreat," Sebastian said.
Lilac glanced at the tent behind her and contemplated. It was impossible for them to retreat. Jedrek would never agree to that.
However, in Jedrek's current condition…
And then sothing crossed Lilac's mind, as she turned around to go to the tent hastily, but before that, she told Sebastian sothing that had been bothering her for these past few days.
"Ask soone to check the castle now, I want to know if the other Donovans are still there."
