Traded To The Lycan King

I stare out at the lake, the one that first made me feel like I was at home. The water glistens in the sun, the waves lapping gently as a breeze dances across it. It's been two weeks. Two weeks since my dad and mom sacrificed themselves. I didn't wake up crying this morning, which is a new thing for me in the past weeks.

"How are you today, my little luna?" Merikh asks, his hands slipping around my waist as he places his chin in the crook of my neck. My hand slips up, gliding into his wet locks after his morning shower.

It's a question that irks me, one that everyday I hear it I fear I will scream. But today, it just feels...different. I spin in his arms, my other hand lifting as I place them both behind his neck. He kisses me lightly, his gentle touch sending a shiver down my spine.

"I'm...okay." I whisper as he pulls back, a soft smile on his plush lips.

"That's a different answer than you usually give." He says, dropping to my height as he searches my eyes. "Are you feeling alright?"

"I am feeling fine." I say with a reassuring tilt of my chin. "Are you really going to ask me this every single day?"

He lifts a single brow. "Would you prefer I not check on you?"

"No, it's just..." I press my lips together, unsure of how to say it.

"I'm being overbearing?" He finishes for me and I nod in affirmation.

"I love you, and that you care so much but, maybe just wait for me to tell you I'm not okay?" I offer, and he frowns.

"All I can promise is to tone it down and not ask a million times a day, but I will check on you."

"Fine," I sigh heavily, rolling my eyes. "Where are you headed?"

I ask as he releases me and moves toward the dresser. I watch as he drops the towel around his waist, my teeth immediately finding my lip as a wave of heat rushes through me. My head tilts to the side, watching him in all his naked glory, a huge, knowing grin on his face.

"Why? Do you have plans for me?" He teases as he slips into his boxer briefs. I chuckle and glance at the raging erection that his clothing can not hide.

"Seems like you have some ideas about what you want us to do." I murmur, my cheek growing red as I saunter toward him.

"Why do you do this to me?" he groans with a huge smile on his lips.

"Do what? You are the one undressing in front of me. I was literally just standing here." I retort playfully, which makes him laugh. It fills the room, feeding my aching soul.
