“Look at us! We are even sharing clothes now!” Savvy said, pulling on the sweatshirt he gave her. “And here I thought that I wasn’t special to you!”
“Savannah…” He groaned, and she imagined that the king of the North was angry with her. He had to be since she was just a nuisance to him.
“Excuse me, Your Majesty,” she giggled. “Don’t be offended. I know very well that I am just one of the twenty or so contenders. Oops. Pardon me, twelve. Twelve contenders. We don’t count those poor girls who came in the wrong colour dresses, right? They committed such a serious offence!”
“Are you done?” Kai growled, waiting for her impatiently.
“Oh, I am far from being done!” the princess snorted when she realised that the sweatshirt was barely covering her bottom. However, she had to admit that it was better than nothing, and she would have to be content with having just this on her. It was better than the two of them staying naked together. Nothing good could come out of that. “In fact, I could go on about all this for hours!”
“That’s not what I am asking,” Kai cut her off, “Are you dressed?”
“If one can call this short hoodie a dress, then yes….” The girl muttered and didn’t even get to finish her sentence when the lycan’s strong hand grasped her forearm, pulling her out of the bushes into the moonlight.
“Good,” he said calmly and pushed her against the tree where just a few minutes ago, the bear was holding her hostage.
Déjà vu.
“And now tell me who the man you were with a few minutes ago was.”
He tucked his nose into the crook of her neck, taking a deep breath of her scent mixed with the intruder’s, and his elongated claws sliced the tree bark right next to her.
“Damn, Kai,” she chuckled, demonstrating that he wasn’t intimidating to her at all. “If I didn’t know any better, I’d say you are jealous!”
He pulled away from her quickly. Way too quickly.
Their eyes met, and he quickly averted her gaze, making her blush at the realisation that there might have been some truth to her joke.
The king cleared his throat. “Don’t change the subject. It’s absolutely unacceptable that my… one of the contenders is sneaking out with some guy in the woods!”
“Imagine my surprise when I thought I was coming here to get married and found my groom-to-be with twenty other women!” She didn’t hold back a smirk that curled her lips, and he finally locked his eyes with hers. They stared at each other as if it was a competition, and Savvy experienced a wave of triumph when he sighed heavily and looked away.
“I didn’t know, okay?” Kai ran his hand over his hair. “L’
