Traded To The Lycan King by MG Wattsons

Chapter 47

"Merikh❞

"I don't like this," Colette says, her tongue running over her teeth as she drills me with her angry eyes.

"Are you worried about me?" I tease her and she crosses her arms over her chest.

"Of course I am! Don't pretend like you can't feel it through the bond." She growls.

She is right. I feel her fear and the way she doesn't want me to leave her side. The way she wants to just wrap her arms around me and keep me here. It's damn adorable and so fucking refreshing to know it rather than hope.

"Letty," I say in a gentle voice, stalking toward her. She rolls her eyes, trying to be mad. "Penny and Percy will both be here with you."

"You stupid fool." She sniffles. "DO you really think I care about me? It's you that I am worried about."

"Am I not the Alpha of Death?" I ask her, arching a brow, and she scoffs. Her indignation only feeding the playful side of me. "Am I not the Lycan king?"

"You are my mate above all those things." She says and her words spear me right in the chest. Her words surprising me as I blink at her, dumbfounded.

"Am I that important to you?" I ask her and her shoulders drop, her eyes going sad.

"Do you need me to say it as well as feel it for you to believe it?" She asks me and I nod emphatically.

"Every day. I need you to tell me every day."

"I love you, and I hate you." She says like the smart ass she is.

"Oh? and what is it you love about me?" I ask, walking toward her and rubbing up and down her arms as she looks up at me.

"You mean what is it I hate about you?" She rivals and I smirk.

"Oh, I know why you hate me. A little all too well. What I don't know is why you love me."

"Because of the mate bond," she says, but I feel the lie, all the while watching her lip twitch.

"Interesting." I mutter. "Do you want to see if the lie detector works for me, too?" I ask, arching a brow, and she fights back a smile.

"Hit me with your best lie." She says, bracing yourself as a knock sounds in the door.
