Babysitting The Amnesiac Lycan King

Chapter 103

50

It's been three fucking days of Liam and I investigating what happened. Who was behind Celeste's death and who posted the article. Liam still can't believe I didn't and how they looked like idiots celebrating me back then in the office.

I don't even make it three steps into the drawing room before I realize it's going to be that kind of evening. He's already there. You have got to be fucking kidding

me.

He sprawled out on the antique velvet chaise as if a damn royal cat who just mauled a deer and now wants a nap after the carnage.

Except this cat is six-foot-something, way too muscular to be lounging that prettily, and currently staring at me with the same intensity serial killers give their prey when they're deciding whether to disembowel first or flirt.

"Again?" I mutter under my breath, dragging a hand through my hair as I turn to Liam. "What the fuck is he doing here again?"

Liam pauses beside me, a thick folder tucked under his arm, eyes narrowing in that exasperated, brooding way he's perfected. "I thought this was a private meeting?"

"Yeah," I say flatly, "so did I."

I specifically told the maid to restrict anyone and that it would just be me and Liam using the drawing room.

But who is a maid when your fucking maid demands it, right?

Ugh, this is so frustrating. He is so frustrating!

A maid edges out the doorway, her face flustered as hell as she peeps in, I walk closer so I could hear her as she whispers something like "He said it's a royal directive, Miss Sinclair.."

Royal directive, my ass.

Enoch doesn't even pretend to look ashamed. He shifts his leg off the coffee table with all the grace of a wolf pretending to be civilized. Spoiler alert, he's not. "Don't mind me," he says coolly, flipping open a book he's not actually reading.

It's entitled 'How To Not Kill' on its covers. I hear some steps behind me, and Liam immediately moves closer, hiding as though Enoch might touch him. I could honestly tell him he's falling right into his trap.

That moving closer to me thus making Enoch's wolf mad about our proximity might get him killed even more. But he's not aware of mates or werewolves, so I let him.

I turn back to Enoch with a glare. I hope looks could kill right now because he's absolutely getting on my last nerve. We can't finish anything with his stupid ass in here.

“I'm just resting. In my palace. In a room I like.” he mutters with a smug look on his face.

Resting. In the drawing room. During a scheduled private briefing. With Liam. "Oh for fuck's sake," I hiss under my breath.

Liam snorts beside me and I sighed. These two are freaking idiots. "Should I come back later when His Highness is done... 'resting'?"

"No," Enoch answers for me, snapping at Liam who then takes another step back at his glare. "You may proceed. I'm not in the way." he growls, pulling back the book on his face.
