Chapter 317
I didn’t want to see his expression, I couldn’t take it if he showed anger or something like that, I just knew that I would gladly walk around sharing his scent. I guess all of my old friends were right about one thing… It was impossible to deny your mate once they had
found you.
Lewis, did respond to my words. Not that I wanted him to, I just needed his to know how I felt, without explicitly stating the obvious three words that I wanted to say, but that just wouldn’t come out. He simply and silently followed me through the pack house, while his loud yet unspoken questions boomed over the corridor until we reached Gilliards door.
I knocked thrice on the wood and waited for him to reply to my knocking with a small come in, which I did as soon as his reply met my ears. I didn’t wait for the ex beta to follow, because I knew he wasn’t at all far behind me.
“Good morning, Dylan… Lewis, how are you both on this fine day?” Ok… he knew, there was no way he didn’t know. He smug expression told me everything and I sighed, smiling but already fed up with the amount of questions I was going to get, in the short time I had been here, I had noticed that although they were cousins, Lewis and Gilliard acted much more like brothers.
“We’re fine Gill.” Gill hummed jokingly at his cousins tense reply, then glanced down at Lewis’s pants.
“Well, you two are fully in the lovey doves stage aren’t you? I’m surprised to see you here at all if I’m honest, when I first found Trina we locked ourselves in my room for four days.” He chuckled, obviously thinking back to his initial meeting of his mate.
“Dylan has something she wants to run by you, before we take it to the other packs and rebellions.” Lewis disregarded what Gill had said only moments ago and went straight to business, his tone whenever he was being stern always enthralled me but never had his voice, caused arousal in me. It felt like I was in heat, I need Lewis, and I wanted nothing more than to be wrapped around him, naked…
I released a very small moan which caused my eyes to widen and a small cough made its way out of my mouth in an attempt to cover up my lust, I saw Lewis step towards me slightly with yet another growl on his lips, but I shook my head slightly and quickly changed the subject.
“Oh… erm yeah, I wanted to ask your opinion on something.” I stated clenching my legs together and swallowing thickly at the atmosphere I had caused.
“Ok… but the next time one of you make any indication of arousal, I’m kicking you both out before you jump each other’s bones in my office.” He chuckled and his words caused my cheeks to flare a deep red We wouldn’t do that, I had some self respect. I shook my head and sighed refusing to meet Lewis’s eye line again for the remainder of the little meeting I had wanted.
“Anyway… it’s about what alpha Dalton said…” Gilliards ears pricked up instantly at my words and he sat up straight in his chair, all hints of amusement were gone from his features and in its place was a look, that was solely focused on me.
“About how he would make a decision once you have.” I nodded my head and sighed already knowing I was about to completely sacrifice some of my freedom for the sake of the rebellion.
“Everyone wants to see me on the throne, right? The wolves think the moon goddess chose me to be queen and the humans think my resolve against the king makes me the ideal candidate!” I stated slightly pacing the floor where I stood My hands‘ shook a little as I thought about things, my mind solely on my idea. It could work. “What if I temporarily took up leadership after the king, while we hold an election for the true ruler?!”
