The Alpha King’s Possession

26. Bad Decision

KIAN

When something feels like it’s too fucking good to be true, it usually is. Although I knew that she was trying to prove that she had a hold on me, I was still in control. Fuck, mate or not, her touch alone was my fucking undoing. Never had I had such a good fucking release and that was just by her fucking hand.

When Sage entered, I wasn’t expecting it. Although things were different now that I had

found my mate… I still needed her as my Luna. I needed her to understand that she would be the Luna. If she went and told anyone about Morgana and me… that could ruin a lot more. 1

I had pulled away, grabbing a towel, yet the guilt I felt for just leaving her in the shower… I never thought I’d ever feel like this. Her face was emotionless. Her post-orgasm glow made her look even more beautiful… the innocence in those beautiful ruby red eyes of hers…

But… I had to do this. I left the bathroom and rushed to find Sage.

“Sage!”

She was almost at the door when I grabbed her wrist and pulled her back.

There was nothing, I felt nothing when I touched her. Her scent did nothing for me either, but she was still a friend…

“Sage…”

Her blue eyes, which I had once admired, now reminded me that there was a red pair that I loved more… 1

“What is it, Kian?” She asked softly, trying to remain composed, although I knew I had hurt

her.

“Sage, you will be my Luna.”

“I know.” She said, unable to look into my eyes. “But will I still be the one in your heart?”

‘How can she fucking be somewhere she never was, to begin with?’ Thanatos growled.

I frowned, I couldn’t even say Morgana meant nothing to me… because she sure as fuck did.

“She’s a vampire, there is no future for us regardless of whether I feel something or not.” I said quietly, feeling my chest clench painfully. 1

She gasped, her hands clamping over her mouth, and I realised I had indirectly admitted I felt something for Morgana…

“It’s a passing phase, Sage… It will be over.” I added, knowing I was lying.

There was no way I’d ever get over Morgana… Right down to her fucking sassy nature… I loved

1. She wasn’t scared of me, she didn’t try to please me… She made me forget reality…

“Why are you so infatuated with her? I don’t know what it is… I know you have other women but the Vampire, she makes me uneasy… She sleeps in your room. She is different from the others. I love you, Kian. You’re…” She looked away, frowning deeply.

I wasn’t hers for her to even make a claim on me. If it came down to that… then I was Morgana’s.

I frowned deeply, trying to control my rising anger and the possessiveness I was feeling towards Morgana.

“Look, Sage… You will be Luna, but if you think you can stake your claim on me, it’s not fucking happening. I belong to no one.” I said quietly. “You are important to me though.”

I reached over and caressed her cheek, but all I could think of was Morgana.

“Thank you… I just…” She didn’t complete her sentence, wrapping her arms around me tightly.
