Chapter 142: A Man-to-Man Talk

*Theo*

Before I could do or say anything else, Ciana artfully avoided my half embrace and skittered away.

I remained speechless as I stood there, watching her run away from me again. My head tilted back and I closed my eyes.

She had been so close. I could still sense her warm presence in the air and I inhaled deeply to indulge myself in her enticing, waterlily scent a little longer.

However, that single word breathed out from her pink and alluring lips rang in my ears and was sharper than any knife. It sliced through my chest and left my heart throbbing helplessly.

***

It only took Alpha Black two days to arrive at the palace. I was waiting for him at the front doors before he could run into Ciana. We hadn’t had a chance to fill him in on what she was going through.

“Alpha Black,” I greeted, nodding respectfully to him.

“Greetings, Your Majesty. I didn’t expect the king himself to be my welcome party,” he replied politely, slightly lowering his head to show respect to the crown, but the way he carried himself made it feel as if we were equal in status.

And I greatly appreciated it. Because he treated me as someone that he respected as a person, not due to my title. Even if I hadn’t been the king, I was confident that he would do the exact same thing.

He lifted his eyes and looked me over quickly and meanwhile, I also got the chance to do the same to him.

He was a tall and good-looking man with a full build. Jake told me he was my father’s age, but other than some hint of gray in his jet-black hair, I wouldn’t think he was in his fifties. Probably because his piercing grayish-blue eyes caught most of my attention immediately.

They were deep and calm and through them, I knew for sure that their owner was a man full of stories. I could see where Ciana got her bright, captivating eyes from.

“You got here a bit sooner than we anticipated,” I said as I gestured toward the meeting room.

“Where my daughter is concerned, I don’t leave anything to chance. Where’s my daughter, Your Majesty?”

“I assure you, Ciana is fine right now,” I stated quickly so he wouldn’t get the wrong idea. “However, she is dealing with something and I wanted to update you before you saw her.”

He narrowed his eyes at my reply. Without saying anything, I could already sense the warning from his gaze.

“Please, tell me what is happening with my daughter.”

His piercing eyes told me silently that if anything happened to Ciana, we’d all feel Alpha Black’s wrath, something I would never want to deal with from my future and only possible father-in-law anyway, but especially after meeting Soren Black in person. I bet no one in the world would want to mess with this composed yet extremely dangerous man’s beloved family.

So I decided to be completely honest and straightforward with him. If anything could help me with the man in front of me, my gut told me it was honesty and sincerity.
