Found by the Lycan King

Chapter 148

Callahan stormed out of the room, the sound of his footsteps thudding across the hallway as he made his way through the hallway.

I had seen him angry, but not so much when it was me.

He would be annoyed or irritated at best, and when he lost control, he was a feral monster.

But this rage was that of a human with feelings and emotions. The anchor bond in my wrist felt hot to the touch.

And I could feel it all directed at me. I threw a nervous look at the pack members who just slid out of the room, worried that Callahan would storm back and break their necks.

Matteo placed a hand on my shoulder and shrugged, “You will be alright” and left as well.

Elijah, however, stood beside me, leaning on the table as I did.

“He is going to kill me,” I mumbled and Elijah replied,

“You know he can’t. Not technically”

I snorted, “Because I am his anchor?”

“Because he loves you”

Elijah said the line so simply as if it was a well-known fact as simple and truthful as the sun rising up the east every single day.

My eyes widened and I looked up at him, surprise evident in my eyes.

“How?”

Elijah gave me an amused smile, “How do I know? Well…” he pointed at the hallway Callahan had just walked through and the door that was creaking a bit.

“…that was a blindingly bright example of how much he loves you and cares for you and I would be blind as a bat to not see that”

Callahan had said all the other words of how he needed me and cared for me, but love was not a word I had seen him use.

Could he really love me? After Aislynn? What if I manage to break his curse and some other girl turns out to be his mate?
