Chapter 106
“I sent another group of hunters to the mountains, but just like the last set, they didn’t return.” Raiden reported, once Koan walked in.
“Gather a group of pack warriors, we’ll be heading there after the meeting,” Koan ordered. “Where are the elders p>
“In your office,” He looked behind Koan to see Nancy meekly walk in, stealing glares at Koan. “Mind telling me what happened p>
Koan looked over his shoulders at who had caught his Beta’s eyes before turning away with a neutral expression.
He didn’t bother to answer him before he left for his office.
Nancy didn’t say a word either and left for her room.
Liliana was crossed on her bed in a weird position, painting her toenails a shade of hot pink when Nancy walked in.
“I told you it was a bad idea to let us go shopping together.” She stated, shutting the door behind her while Liliana closed the nail polish, putting her legs down.
She could see her friend wasn’t happy one bit.
“What happened p>
Nancy sighed, and told her everything, right down to when he had left her alone in the dressing room.
“Let me see!” With that, she rushed forward and unzipped the gown without warning to behold the red hickey on her neck line. Liliana clicked her tongue in disappointment.
“I can’t believe he was so aroused and he didn’t mark you in the heat of the moment p>
“I doubt he was. If anyone was aroused, it was me,” She blushed at Liliana’s expression but continued. “He takes me up on a roller coaster ride, leaves me up and lets me crash to the ground alone. Don’t you realize what he’s doing p>
“That sly cousin of mine. He wants you to crack, and thinks you’re going to leave the pack if his torment becomes unbearable for you p>
“Well I’m not going to p>
“Well if you’re not… why don’t you play his game p>
“What do you mean p>
Liliana sighed with a knowing smile and crawled closer to her, careful not to ruin her pedicure.
“I believe I know my cousin more than anyone else. And if it’s anything I’ve learnt about Koan, it’s that he’s obsessed with women p>
“I’m an exception. He said it himself p>
“Oh Please. You’re his fated mate. So you have the upper hand p>
“Are you saying that I should seduce Koan. Liliana, he’ll wring my head out of my neck if he realizes it p>
She smirked at her. “Who says he has to know p>
Before Nancy could utter a word, Liliana adds,
“Wait here, I’ll be back p>
As Liliana rushed out, barefoot, waiting for her nail-do to dry, she bumped into Raiden.
“I was looking for you p>
She smiled with a glint In her eyes, twirling her fingers in her hair.
“Why p>
He frowned with narrowed eyes.
“Koan’s having a meeting now, and we’ll be heading to the mountains after so I’m recruiting a group to join us p>
“The mountains? The hunters aren’t back yet p>
“Yes, so get ready,” he glared at the new shade of pink on her nails. “and,” he glanced over the crop top and bum short she wore. “get into warrior attire. We suspect something worse than the men just loosing their way back here p>
“Okay but… ” She sighed when he left her sight without another word, her thumb in her mouth.
After sighing again, she climbs up to her cousin’s room, completely sure that he wasn’t around and was in his office with the elders.
Just like she guessed, as she twisted Koan’s doorknob, the door opened, evident that in a hurry, Koan had been careless and hadn’t locked his room.
There was no time to waste, Liliana dashed downstairs to see Nancy at the door. She had been worried that Liliana was gone for a while and was on her way to search for her.
“Get your things, we’re leaving.” Liliana breathlessly said, trying not to shout.
“What? Leaving? We’re running away p>
Liliana sighed.
“Gosh… No you’re moving into Koan’s room p>
“He agreed p>
“Not… exactly. But his room’s open. That’s a good explanation as to why you’ll be there. Now be quick before the meeting is over p>
At the sound of her voice, Nancy rushed inside to get her things ready which wasn’t hard since she hadn’t fully unpacked in Liliana’s room because Liliana suspected something like this would happen.
’I heard someone moving about on my floor. I asked Raiden and he said he wasn’t close to mansion. Where are you p>
’In my room.’ She said honestly.
Koan was half listening to something an elder said while his jaw was in his hand. He was mind linking his cousin.
’Where WERE you p>
’I’ve been in my room.’ She half-lied this time.
’Where’s Nancy p>
’She’s here with me p>
’I’ve got ears around the Pack.’ He reminded her and she rolled her eyes as he cut off the mind link.
Nancy finally walked forward with her trolley in her hand and a bag slung over her shoulder.
“I’m ready p>
She looked nervous… infact nervous wasn’t a describable explanation for how she felt. She was terrified. Almost like they weren’t just going to the Alpha’s floor but into a Lion’s den.
“Whatever you do, do not make a sound upstairs. I think Koan can hear what goes on on his floor from his office p>
The blood drained from her face.
“What p>
Liliana put a finger to her beautiful lips and Nancy shut her mouth with her hand.
“We don’t have much time. Are you backing down now p>
The fighting light burning brightly in her eyes which had dimmed not to long ago resurfaced with a resolving intent.
“No way. Let’s go p>
With that, they made their way upstairs.
As they got close to the room, Liliana holding the trolley, not dragging it across the floor since it will surely cause a lot of noise, Koan’s voice resounded In her head like a siren.
’What’s Nancy doing up on my floor p>
Her heart pounded in her rib cage and she stared pitifully at Nancy whose hand was inches away from Koan’s door knob.
’What do you mean?’ She stammered, acting dumb.
’I can smell her f**king scent all over. She’s close, isn’t she? She’s on my floor. What are you two up to p>
’I don’t know what you’re talking about p>
’I’m coming out right now p>
