Dominance

DAMON

I and Louise sat in the long chair where the warriors and other villagers ate their meals. The waiter cleaned the table in front of us and I saw almost a lot of people looking at where Louise and I were sitting.

Most of them are men who I think admire the body of the woman I'm with. I immediately felt a strange irritation.

I want to stand up and shout at them while the woman in front of me has no idea what's going on. He just remained silent as if he was deep in thought.

I just calmed myself down and forced myself to hold my balloon as if at any moment it was ready to take control of my body and disappear inside the small dining room.

I don't know, but Louise has a different effect on me and my wolf.

Now I almost don't want to lose sight of it. I don't even want to stop marking it. I almost marked her with my fangs which should only be for the woman meant for me.

Yes I know I am being unfair to my mate because of the way I treat Louise, but he can't blame me, can he? At first, my mate chose to defecate in front of other wolves and instead of staying by my side, he chose to stay away.

And no here I am. I just felt at ease now. Just now I feel like I'm not alone. With Louise, I felt as if there was someone I could say was a part of my life that I could own and maybe I could also take care of and love.

She's different and everything about her is beautiful and unique.

I don't care what others say or even its appearance and state.

The only important thing for me now is to make her feel that I can take care of her and that she can stay in my life as an important person in my heart.

I know I am being selfish but just now I was very happy. Not only because of the joy of having it but because I felt it form something inside of me that I don't know what.

"You're avoiding looking at me," I said this because I wanted to catch his eyes, but it was really hard because he didn't seem to want to give in to me.

Is it that bad that he hates me?

Damn! Why is it so hard to read? After all, it varies from mood to mood.

When something happened to us that's when I felt like it wasn't pretending.

I don't know but there is something different about him that I can't name.

"I came here to eat and not to talk." It was a cold promise so I just sighed.

I looked in the kitchen and saw an old lady preparing food.

Soon I saw him approaching our place carrying his prepared food.

he brought fresh bread, honey in a bowl, golden butter, and silver knives. So I smiled widely

"This is the place to eat," I said. I kept my eyes on Louise. And she didn't seem to mind. It's like there's no pretense and that's one of the things I like about him.

It is not the same as other girls who are very artistic. This is the type of woman whose movements are measured and every angle of the situation seems to be a lesson.

"Bread hot from the oven." I immediately picked it up and slowly divided it into two.

I was hungry when I saw it steamed after I tore it open. Heaven must smell like fresh bread.

My smile widened even more and when I looked up I noticed the shock in Louise's eyes.

I don't know why he was surprised. If only I could feel this simple life and freedom away from the palace again.

"I knew I missed this place for a reason," I called the words over my shoulder. I knew the lady cook was kind and polite. My mother used to be like this. It likes to cook and bake. I thought of her every hundred times and I dreamed of her pies. It's not always a nightmare that I dream about. Sometimes the happy ones are there.

That's all I'm covered with regret and longing.

As it is now this situation and feeling seems to remind me of things that I shouldn't be worrying about.

I took a deep breath and tried to get rid of the things that were bothering me.

So I took the first bite and damn! It woke me up. So I didn't waste time I tore the loaf as though it were a fresh meat.

I didn't care anymore and just filled my mouth with bread.

Louise paused to watch me, her knife suspended above the honey bowl, her lips twitching with a smile.

I was surprised when I saw his smile because it was even more beautiful! If my ridiculous appearance will make him smile like that, I'm ready to do it again and again just to make him happy.

I was still dumbfounded and it seemed that it had noticed what was happening so it looked away with a blush.

Wait, am I just imagining that?

Why is the speed lost?

"Mmmfflg." I chewed and swallowed. I didn't even chew too much so I almost threw up.

"What? Do I look attractive while eating?" I demanded but the truth is I just wanted to tempt him.

"She's probably wondering if you'll go under the table and fight with the dog when you lose your bread. It's like you're starving if you eat." My beta had come up behind me unnoticed. So I frowned. Destructive!

"Damn, but you'd make a good meat to eat, Beta." I swung around to find his beta standing over me, his armor gleaming.

"Maybe you want to eat my sexy body, my king. You can say that I'm not a bad person." I frowned especially because of annoyance.

Does he have nowhere else to go? Why is it that Louise and I would have been the only ones here, he would have been here, but he had nothing to do in life.

It's annoyingly good to hit.

"I better eat juicy meat rather than yours," I said and my eyes accidentally landed in front of Louise.

I swallowed because damn! It was huge and to this day I still remember how soft and delicious it was.

Damn! I can feel the erection of my manhood.

It's a whore!

My feelings for the girl in front of me don't even silence me. Even its simple movements affected me. It's like a drug that I can't forget and it just keeps driving me crazy.

"So you mean, your servant's breasts are more edible?" I nod involuntarily and I only woke up from my delirium when I felt a pain in my cheek and I also heard a loud laugh.

"Pervert!" Louise promised so hard that I just shook my head.

Langya That's it, we're fine now, but because of this snort, I'm back at Zero.

I turned a bad look at my beta who continued to laugh.

Danger!

"I never thought you were a pervert, my king, wait is that the result of watering the plant again after a few years?" The beta said, showing Damon an annoying smile. So full of annoyance I threatened it with my eyes. That's why I once saw the depiction of fear in them.

"You had your mind on more pressing matters maybe?" I said, but instead of focusing his attention on me, my beta chose to turn to Louise. The beta bowed towards Louise. And even Louise was surprised.

"My lady. It's an honor to see you with my King. As the Beta I promise to protect the King's concubine" He extended a hand to her and I also grinned because what I heard from her was so good.

Now she's my concubine, all I have to do is tell my other subordinates.

But for now, maybe the beta knows well so that someone can help protect Louise.

"I am no lady, I am Louise, and I am not the king's concubine." His beta raised a brow at that as he took her hand and bowed again, much more deeply, lifting her fingers to his lips.

The beta had thick lips, sensuous. He'd washed his face and his hair gleamed as much as his armor, coal-black and curled. He cleaned up well, and for the smallest moment, I hated him without reservation. I was annoyed because he kissed the hand of a woman who was very important to me.

And another thing, I'm also annoyed with the woman in front of me, why does she keep denying being a concubine? Does he hate me too much?

"Take a seat," I said. "I'm sure the excellent cook can find more bread." The beta let go of her hand. Too slow for my liking.

This gag seems to annoy me the most. Why did it take him so long to let go of Louise's hand? He enjoys the softness of it too much.

I'm the only one who can do it! Is he stupid?

"Sadly, my king, duty rather than hunger brings me to the kitchen. I thought I might find you here. I just want to make sure you eat and then we can meet for a while before we head straight for the trip. But in truth, it seems that I will not be afraid to leave you alone my king, as far as I remember Louise can protect you. But I'm still in awe of your skills, young lady." My beta favored Louise with an appreciative stare and I hate it. I'm so full of annoyance.

The tension was thick until the cook stood and pulled three mugs from a cabinet. She poured a type of red liquid into each mug and passed them to me, to the beta, and Louise.

Louise looked at the cook confused. So the lady smiled kindly.

"You need that to calm your nerves. I notice that he needs that as much as he does. Then that's good to get rid of any tension in your mind." After saying that, he immediately left.

My beta and I quickly drank the wine while Louise was left thinking twice. I was about to speak but I was preceded by a snort

"Dark Mead," My beta explained. "Try it. You'll like it. That's good for the mind especially when you have a problem."

Victoria took a sip and she closed her eyes as if a delicious liquid ran over her tongue. It was unlike anything she would ever taste. It was sweet and tart from unknown flavors and it warmed her insides immediately. She went to take another long drink of the mead.

And I smiled foolishly as if it was the first time he drank something like this so that's how he reacted.

"Careful my dear," my beta warned. "It's alcohol."

Louise's eyes widened and she carefully put her mug down. And I seem to realize that this is not a drinker.

I smiled at her and Louise watched how I only sipped my drink. And the funny thing is that it seems to be trying to imprint on my mind exactly how I drink. Because I still plan to imitate him.

I cleared my throat and ran my hand through my wild hair before I began to speak.

"Beta, maybe you can just tell everyone, I just have to take care of something after this I will talk to the head of this village so you will be the only one to meet with the soldiers and other citizens. I want you to tell them that I need everyone to cooperate. We can't be the only ones to move. Even a small amount of information will be needed. So even if we return to the palace, they should be sure to tighten the security of this place. At least temporarily while the other soldiers we will send to this place are on their way. And to the warriors tell them that we need to go back to the palace and plan the next step. I have this feeling that the enemy is trying to play a hide-and-seek game. It's right there next to us watching our every move, so it's also possible that he's just roaming around the kingdom. And that's what I'm afraid of. Maybe if we stay longer in this place, the people in the palace will be destroyed. We need to make sure that everything is ready, we should observe and create a good trap, but first, we need you, Louise."

"But what does this have to do with me?" Louise interrupted and I could see the annoyance reflected in her eyes. He did not expect that he would be involved in the problem we are facing.

I don't want to sympathize with this but I have no other choice.

I nodded and continued. "You can pretend to be my mate. That way the enemy's attention will turn to you. But I promise I will protect you, Louise. Also, I would like you to help the other soldiers in training as I told you earlier."

She looked stupidly at me. As if I had grown ten heads. He couldn't believe what I told him but I didn't have a choice because I needed his help.
