Sould As The Alpha King's Breeder

Chapter 26 Do Not Test Me Again

“My… room?” I was immediately wary.

“Pack up, and we need to get going.”

I let out a breath of relief….

What was I worried about? Theo had no interest in me as a

woman. He only wanted my blood.

However, his words still made my heart catch in my throat. By going, he meant back to the palace, of course. He was taking me back. Despite the fact that I didn’t want to marry him, and he most certainly didn’t want to marry me,

he was going to drag me back to the castle-when I was trying to get back to my pack lands where I could check on my people.

“Lead the way, Ciana.” He gestured toward the stairs.

I said nothing, only climbed the stairs as quickly as I could.

The room I’d shared with Warren was unlocked. The moment I walked in, I missed him already. I’d had such a heart-felt discussion with him not long ago, and I’d

anticipated a nice journey with him, where we could get to

know one another even better.

Now, all of that was ruined, thanks to Prince Theo.

But there was one thing I was right about. Theo wouldn’t harm me. It had been proven again and again. As long as

he hadn’t gotten his dreamberry, he would have to keep me intact.

With that, I felt a little more secure about my own life and was willing to push the boundaries if I felt the need to.

Sulking, I went over to the dresser and began shoving items into my bag, trying not to mutter under my breath. The window was open, and a breeze wafted in, making the hair on my arms stand on end. I needed to get my emotions

under control.

Raising my eyes, I looked at Theo, who was standing behind me, an irritated look on his face as he glared at the

bed.

“Did that mattress do something to offend you, Your Highness? Or is that scowl just a permanent fixture on your face?” I had to let my negative emotions out somehow,

He lifted his eyes and met my gaze in the mirror, a frown on

his face.
