Aliana POV
The three days apart from Nikolas were like hell. He allowed me to visit my father daily, and I was even allowed to spend the night in his house, but nothing felt right without him.
I would often stay up at night and wish I was a Lycan. I wished there wasn’t a divide between our races. It made me seem like a traitor, but my heart was aching badly.
It was tough.
I often stared at the garden and saw him sitting quietly beside Qusack. He linked me always, but hearing his voice in my head was not enough. When it was time for him to leave, I became more worried.
As much as I tried to be brave, I knew anything could take him from me. He could get there and meet a Lycan he might like or someone he would have to marry to get what he wants.
What was I compared to his ambitions? He couldn’t have meticulously planned a takeover for so long and just thrown it away because of me.
I would be silly to think he would do that. I knew his motivations had to do with his mother, and I hoped he would tell me one day.
“Hey, are you still sleeping?” I heard Nikolas in my head while I was wide awake. I had slept in my father s house, so I sat up in bed immediately. I looked at the clock, it was five in the morning.
“I am awake,” I replied. “I am leaving now. I promise I won’t stay long.” He said, and my heart sank.
It was a lot easier when I knew he was around, but now that he was going away, I knew my heart would ache every day until he returned.
“Are you all right?” he asked me, and I took a deep breath.
“No,” I confessed. There was no point lying to him.
“I am afraid you will no longer be mine when you return,” I said. He was silent for a bit.
“I do not break my promises, Little wolf. I meant what I said. I will be home in two days. I love you,” He told me, and his words melted my fear away.
“Make sure you show them who the boss is,” I said, knowing he would laugh.
“Qusack is in charge. If anyone messes with you, let him know. You are not to run errands for anyone or bow to anyone. We are hiding our relationship, but I will not humiliate you. If anyone messes with you, report to Qusack immediately,” He said, and I giggled.
“Yes, Alpha,” I linked him back and heard a low growl.
“See you in two days, little wolf,” He linked me and closed the mind link.
I placed my head back on the pillow, smiling.
I had butterflies in my stomach, and I could not stop blushing.
