Chapter 18 Chapter 18) Urging him/ The president.
Joaken pack.
8am.
Inside Kayson’s grand bedroom.
The curtains were pulled open by a strong hand, and bright light from the morning sun penetrated the room and forced Elora’s eyes to swing open.
She let out a tired groan and covered her face with the blanket. “Turn off the lights”. She said to Kayson, who was the one behind opening the curtains.
Seeing that she had woken up, he stopped standing at the window and went to the bed.
He sat there on the edge of the bed with a faint smile on his face, before his hand reached out, and he removed the blanket from her face.
“You are awake, darling”. He said to her, before he leaned forward and captured her lips, to the point he wanted to leave her breathless. He only stopped after she hit his bare broad shoulder.
“It's- it's enough. No more”. She said to him while she panted fast.
It had been 6 days in a row, and she was exhausted. She needed to rest for at least a few hours more.
“Are you alright? Are you hurt anywhere?”. He asked her and was worried.
He did not mean to be so extra with her. But he was desperate for heirs, who would lead his pack in the future.
He needed heirs so that his position as Joaken Alpha would be firm.
Elora shook her head at him before she replied to him, saying, “I am fine, babe”.
Hearing her reply, he could not resist kissing her forehead and whispering sweetly to her, “I am sorry. I am sorry for putting so much pressure on you”.
“It's okay. I also want it”. She admitted, causing her face to turn red, but she was not ashamed. He was now her husband.
He was now hers.
Something suddenly came to her mind and the look on her face changed and turned to something serious. She said to him, “The wedding is tomorrow. Are you going to attend?”.
Upon hearing Elora's question, Kayson had a second thought about it.
He really did not want to attend the wedding because he had no idea what Alejandro was thinking about when he decided to send him an invitation.
But that was not the main reason why he did not want to attend the wedding.
It was because he knew that Alejandro must be aware of how he had killed Alpha Sam and took over his position as the new Alpha of the Joaken pack.
Even if it might seem like he had been invited because he had been approved as the alpha of Joaken pack by Alejandro, he did not want to take any chances and wanted to lie low for a while.
For a long while if that was going to be possible.
“We should attend the wedding, babe”.
Her words caught him off guard and were the complete opposite of what he had in mind. “Why? I thought you would also be against the idea of me going to the moonlight pack. I thought you would hate an idea like that”.
Elora sat up on the bed after hearing what Kayson said to her.
Raising an eyebrow at him, she said to him, “Why would I hate such an idea? If you don't meet Alejandro in person, then how will you have an idea of defeating him in the future? Don't you want to be the supreme leader of the entire werewolves?”.
Kayson's eyes widened, and he rose up from the bed the instant after he heard what she said to him.
It was something he had never imagined hearing her say.
Although he was ambitious and dreamed of surpassing Alejandro one day, he had not been bold enough to say that out loud.
“What? Why are you like this, babe?”.
“Don't you want to become the supreme leader of the werewolves?”. She asked him while looking surprised, because his reaction was not something she had expected.
If she recalled correctly, she knew that he was an ambitious kind of man.
So, she did not understand why he was reacting this way.
She grew a little bit annoyed after Kayson remained silent and didn't say anything to her.
After waiting for a few seconds, she forced herself out of bed and rose to her feet.
But the instant she stood up on her feet, she felt a sharp pain in her hips, and her legs turned cold and felt like jelly.
She was a second away from falling to the ground.
Luckily, Kayson held her just in time to prevent that from happening.
“Be careful”. He said to her, before he let go of her, after making sure that she was alright.
For a moment, there was silence between the both of them. Nobody said anything for the next 2 minutes.
‘No. This can't continue to go on like this’. Elora thought to herself, and she decided to bring up the matter again.
She came forward, standing in front of Kayson, before she placed her hands on his shoulders.
Now, staring into his eyes without breaking eye contact with him, she said to him, with her voice sounding more like a whisper, “You must think about this, babe. Do you wish to be limited to only the title of Alpha of the Joaken’s pack?”.
“Do you wish for him to be above you all your life? This isn't like you. Have you already forgotten about the vision you told me about when you plotted on killing my father?”.
“You promised me that you were going to become the man no one would ever mess with. You told me that you were going to become the man whom I deserved. But, what has gotten over you lately, babe?”.
Her hand made its way to his face and stayed clued to his left cheek gently as she continued to say, “Has one kill made you go soft, babe? I had expected better from you, but you really disappointed me. I wonder what our future pups are going to say if they arrive in this world and find out that their father isn't the ruler of the world”. She shook her head in disappointment, before she returned to the bed and sat there, since standing for long had started making her legs wobble.
After sitting down, the look on her face turned sour, as a sign that she was truly hurt and disappointed.
As Kayson watched her, he felt piercing pain in his chest, as he hated seeing her this way. He hated seeing her sad.
He let out a heavy sigh, and went ahead to kneel before her. More like squatting in front of her and holding her hands.
“I am sorry, darling. It wasn't my intention to make you sad. Everything you said is the right thing. My destiny is to become the ruler of all the werewolves, and to have you stand by my side as my one and only Luna and wife. But…”.
He placed a warm kiss on the back of her hand before he continued to say to her, “But, I must lie low for now, darling. I strongly believe that the Lycan king is not only ruthless but cunning. If I want to succeed in making him cease to exist, I would have to be patient and strike him when he least expects it”.
“I promise, because of the firm belief you have in me, I will not let you down. Neither am I going to let myself down”.
“I will fulfill your wish, but you just have to be patient with me”. He finished talking and waited to hear what she had to say, because her opinion mattered.
Elora felt satisfied with him. She smiled. “Now that's like it, babe. But, we are going to go to the moonlight pack tomorrow and together. There's something I want to confirm for you”.
“And what might that be?”.
“Alejandro’s weakness”.
Paradise City,
The presidential suite.
“Mr President, please I urge you to act fast before it gets too late. If the Lycan King has heirs, it's going to be a nightmare for us and for our people”.
“A creature whose body is invisible when in his Lycan form is a terrible nightmare. And it's even more terrifying if there were more of him out there”.
“God was merciful to us and made all the other Lycans die, leaving just one behind. But that one Lycan is about to become a big problem for us. So, Mr President, we must kill him and make the world a better place for ourselves and for our children”.
