His Dark Obsession

His Teasing

EVANGELINE

We have returned to our original quarters, and for a moment I think he’s about to leave when he enters and shuts the door. I turn to him, stepping closer and look up at him.

I know my love has a temper. He diffuses as fast as he gets heated up and I’m ok with that Even if it does scare me at times. I place my hands on his upper arms.

“I’m sorry.” I say gently, gazing into those golden-green eyes.

Goddess, his eyes are so gorgeous..

“It’s fine. Let’s try to be on the same page going forward. If you want to handle matters once you’re crowned, you are welcome to, but I am an Alpha, Little Mouse and as much as I respect you, I do not like to be told what to do.” He says. His gaze dips to my lips, making my heart pound and I nod.

“I wasn’t trying to tell you what to do, I just there’s this feeling inside, a bit like how I felt before I forfeited the match against Vienna.” I whisper, turning away from him. The unease is still there in the pit of my stomach.

“Then… maybe you’re right… I’ll question him and we’ll figure this out “He says quietly

“Thank you, but I promise next time I’ll talk to you first ” I reply, my breath hitching when his hands snake around my waist and tug me back against him. One hand presses against my stomach.

“I’d appreciate that, my s*xy little queen.” His lips meet my neck, and I close my eyes, savoring the pleasure that washes through me

“Zedkiel, I found some answers in the chamber Raziel spoke ” I whisper

He tenses and moves back slowly, but he doesn’t let go of the grip on my waist.

“Oh?”

“I think I know what we need to do, to break the curse.” But how do I tell him that only one. of us can survive… That I have promised Evelyn to be the one to go?

“Oh, yeah?” he asks.

“Yes, but it’s complicated. I need to go to the realm of the g*ds.”

He lets go of me and turns me to face him, c*cking a brow. “Did you hit your head or something?” a

I frown. “I’m serious and no, I did not.”

“Yeah, well, how the hell can mere mortals go to that realm?” He asks.

He pauses for a second and his eyes narrow. “Is it because you are the goddess’s daughter?”

“I guess.” I reply, sighing heavily. “There is certainly a way.”

I can’t tell him about what I am… not right now. I flip the light switch on, realising we are still in the dark. It’s strange not really needing the light. =
