Chapter 85: Meeting the King
Chapter Eighty-Five – Meeting The King
"Excuse me, sirs, ladies." It was Nero. "King Asher would like to have a word with the two ladies, if you don’t mind."
Stefan raised a brow. A word with his mate? Then it clicked. Laurel was werewolf. Could Asher have realized?
The place was crowded to catch a scent but Asher was a strong Lycan and he might have focused on his mate out of curiosity.
Sorren made a small sigh, rubbing his head. He had warned Laurel about this but she still let it happen. He noticed her stand up, almost excitedly.
"If you’d please excuse me." Laurel said to them, pulling the girl with her. "We’d both be back soon."
Stefan held her hand. "And where do you think you’re going? Do you have any idea why he called you?"
Laurel tried to pull her hand back but he held it tightly. She cursed internally. He shouldn’t dare ruin her plans.
Nero watched them, wondering what the relationship between Alpha Stefan and the lady was. Could it be his fiancée? Then it made sense why he’s being possessive.
"Alpha Stefan, I think the King just wants to talk to the lady about the girl she’s with. That’s all." Nero added.
Stefan looked at the girl shivering under Nero’s presence. Was it really just about the girl? He wanted to stay close to Laurel since she was werewolf but plans kept failing.
Laurel pulled her hand successfully from his. "Don’t worry. This princess knows what she’s doing." She forced a smile before walking away with Nero.
