The Lycan king-Chapter 27

*Jax*

"Do you think its going to work? What if she falls in love with you?" Claire asked me as we came out of the conference room. We haven’t had the chance to talk after we left Leonora in my room, the RCC were waiting for an update on my progress with Leonora. I hated that they didn’t trust that I could handle this. Leonora was a piece of cake. I have taken down a pack of rogue wolves myself.

"She won’t. Its Leonora. The poor girl is just hurting and she’s taking all her anger out on me. I just want to show her that I’m a good guy and that’s it. The girl doesn’t know anything about love." I said and Claire laughed. I wrapped an arm around her and pulled her close to me. I noticed the color on her cheeks turning to a bright shade of red. "I’m sorry that she’ll be taking up most of my time."

"You owe me a lot! I’m taking on more workload while you’re out there having fun with that thing." Something inside me wanted to correct her and tell her off for talking about Leonora like that. I’m the only one allowed to treat her however I please, no one else should do the same. I shook my head. Why was I feeling this way about this girl? She was nothing to me. Nothing. I should not be thinking this way. I had a lot to worry about and my Kingship relied on this girl rejecting me. I know I also had the option of mating with her and just managing whatever I get but I couldn’t do that to myself. I know the kind of man I am and Leonora deserved better. Way better than what I would offer her.

"Its no problem. As long as you get rid of her as soon as possible." She replied as she rested her head on my shoulder. We walked quietly towards our room. I hated that I was going to leave her and go back to Leonora but it’s the sacrifice I had to make and she understood.

By the time we got to the door, she was pouting but there was nothing we could do. She gave me a peck on my lips and walked away, leaving me to deal with Leonora. I opened the door and walked into my room and was met with the sight of Leonora sleeping on my bed. I smiled a bit, she looked really cozy and cute. I closed the door behind me, making sure to lock it. I didn’t want Claire coming in and interrupting us like she did earlier.

FUCK.

I wanted to kiss Leonora and I knew she wanted me to. Maybe I would have finally quench my lust for her if Claire hadn’t shown up. The things I wanted to do to her but I couldn’t. I couldn’t because of Claire. If Claire knew the amount of sexual tension between Leonora and I she would scream this house down. She thinks I don’t have any sort of feeling towards Leonora and that is a big lie. I knew I was attracted to her and us being mates doubled that feeling but there was something else. Something I couldn’t quite place. Something that made me feel warm- like she was home. But this feeling came with the bond that we are meant to share. I’m sure of that.

I turned off the lights and went over to the windows. I know Leonora didn’t lie the darkness but I loved it. I wouldn’t be able to sleep if it weren’t dark. I closed the curtains and went over to the bed. I took of my shoes and climbed into bed with her. There was a slight smile on her lips as she slept. I hoped she was dreaming of me but I know Leonora. It probably wasn’t about me. She adjusted herself as if she sensed my presence. I used that as an opportunity and pulled her to me. I placed her head on my chest and she quickly adjusted herself until she was laying on top of me.

I wonder how she would react when she wakes up. This would be fun. I placed a kiss on her forehead and she moaned lightly. Why was I doing this to myself? She sounded so hot and I wanted to wake her up and kiss her. Make love- no, fuck her. This was not a relationship. She was just going to be another girl on my long list. She moved again, this time her eyes fluttered open.

"Why didn’t you wake me?" She asked as she tried to get off me but I held her down. She grinded on my crotch accidentally and I could feel myself getting hard. This girl was dangerous. "Jax, I think- " 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎

"I don’t want you to leave." I said and I noticed she was putting on my shirt. I smiled and she looked down at her clothes. Her eyes widened with realization.

"I’m so sorry. I didn’t have anything to wear and you said I’m not meant to leave and this is so embarrassing and- "

"And you should just shut up and enjoy the moment." I said as I pulled her head down to my shoulder. She sighed and relaxed as I closed my eyes, taking deep breaths to relax myself. I know she wouldn’t let me do anything to her other than kiss her so I had to calm myself. We were just in bed and we were both going to sleep. I realized that I wasn’t going to be able to call my girl over this night. I didn’t even want to talk about how I felt when Leonora said she heard me call her name in the middle of sex last night. But she admitted that she liked it. Weird.

"And I’m not wearing anything underneath." She whispered in my ear and my breath hitched in my throat. This girl was dangerous.
