Crashed!

Chapter 47 - Crashed!

Warm sunlight peeked through the curtain and tickled the eyes of a beautiful brunette. The room where she was sleeping was unusually quiet, as if even the birds outside didn't dare to tweet in fear of waking her up.

Still, it was already late in the morning so Iris slowly woke up.

It was the day after the hostage crisis fiasco. Yesterday, after a short talk with Elliot, her body just crashed due to stress and exhaustion.

Iris was slowly propping her body up when she felt warm hands helping her sit up. This made her look at the beautiful man sitting beside her.

Elliot's hair and clothes were slightly disheveled as he leaned to carefully assist her. It looked like he stayed up sitting there all night. Iris' heart twitched as she looked at his exhausted figure.

Yesterday was a very bizarre day for her. Iris always knew that Elliot was not a normal human. After all, there were many unusual things that happened whenever she was with him. However, learning that he was a werewolf and even had... powers made her little heart shocked to the extreme.

Still, she was not afraid.

Nothing has changed... except for the fact that my sexy beast of a husband turned into a real... magical beast. Iris thought as her arms reached for his shoulders to give him a sweet hug.

Elliot mind blanked out for a moment before he tenderly wrapped his arms around Iris.

"You are amazing." Iris couldn't help but to tell him how she saw him in her heart. How could she not notice that the man was afraid that she would reject him? So, in her own way, Iris wanted to reassure him.

Elliot didn't answer for a few seconds as he took a deep breath of her scent.

"No, you are amazing." Elliot had been trying to tell Iris the truth for a while now. However, he always found excuses to do it next time. He was really afraid that Iris would reject him. She was his life, and if she left him... he didn't even want to think about it.

A coward, he really was.

Thus, he never expected that his mate wouldn't even flinch when she saw his real world.

You are really amazing. Elliot repeated his words in his heart as he pulled Iris closer into his body.

His reply, however, caused Iris to chuckle.

"How can I be amazing? Back when I was young, I tried to see if I had the power to fly but my face ended up on the ground."

Instead of laughing, however, Elliot twitched his brows as he asked her, "Were you hurt?"

Iris thought for a moment before saying, "I don't remember."

"But I remembered staying on the ground, waiting for a prince to save me." Elliot heart felt pain when he thought of the tiny Iris who was hurt. However, his thoughts were interrupted by Iris' laugh as she said, "Back then, I thought Liam as my prince."

Elliot's face didn't show any expression but his body emitted a dangerous aura.

"That fly is not a real prince."

"I am." He proudly said.

Iris blinked before she happily patted his head. "Yes. Yes. You are not just a prince but a King. All of the employees in the office think that you are the King of our city."

Elliot's brow furrowed when he heard her. He really didn't care about how others saw him but he was wondering why she didn't believe him.

"I really am a prince, albeit not a human prince. I am werewolf prince. My parents, your parents-in-law, are the King and the Queen of the Wolves." Elliot shrugged his shoulders as if that fact was nothing important.

However, Iris eyes turned wide at what he said.

"Hubby... are you saying that..." She started to speak but stop as if she was astonished at something.

"Hubby... I have parents-in-law?"

"And they are King and Queen?" Iris shrieked as if the thought made her panic.

"What if they ask us to divorce because they think that I am not good enough for you?" She added.

Elliot had no reaction for a while before he gently flicked Iris' nose.

"Silly. That wouldn't happen because they already love you more than they love me." Elliot told her as he thought that this might be the first instance that someone mentioned divorce in werewolf history.

Iris held her nose as she looked at Elliot with confused eyes. "They love me?"

"Yes." Elliot chuckled. "Actually, they are waiting for you in the living room right now."

"Ah?" Iris was startled for a second before she hurriedly got up and went to toilet to make herself presentable.

.......

Lilly chuckled as she listened to the couple's conversation. Even when the two were inside the room, Lilly could hear them clearly thanks to her powerful hearing.

Suddenly, she felt fingers grabbing her chin as soft lips descended on the corner of her lips. Lilly smiled and moved her head back at Lucas' shoulder.

"I also see you do that before." Lucas' voice was very soft as they caressed Lilly's ears.

"Which one?" Lilly blinked as she looked into Lucas' eyes.

"Your eyes turn green when you are feeling it during our sexy time." Lucas' smirked.

Lilly narrowed her eyes as she playfully smack Lucas' chest. "Well... all I know is that our son took after you." She confidently said with her pink cheeks.

"Is that so? Shall we check if that is really the case now?" Lucas' voice was dangerously low as his face was nearing Lilly.

Unfortunately, a rude cough interrupted their interaction.

Lilly hurriedly pushed Lucas away as she stood up and walked towards Iris who was standing beside Elliot as if she was a statute. On the other hand, Lucas felt annoyed and furrowed his brows at Elliot. Still, he also stood up and followed Lilly.

"Are you feeling better, my dear?" Lilly was worried about Iris and hoped that the girl was feeling better.

After a full minute, Iris still hadn't reply. The three werewolves didn't rush her. They knew that the girl needed time to digest everything that she saw and heard.

However, they didn't think that her mind totally crashed as she looked at Lilly who held her hand and at Lucas who suddenly decided to pat her head as if he was comforting her.
