Chapter 69: My mate
As Killian entered the castle, he glimpsed at Lyra sitting on a stone chair with the little snakes.
His heart throbbed by just being in her presence, the mate’s pull was getting stronger and he just wanted to snatch her away from here.
Lyra lifted her head sensing their presence and eyed Blake in confusion. Blake understood her question and answered "This is Killian, one of my old acquaintances"
She glanced at Killian and smiled faintly "Nice to meet you"
Killian’s pupils shook hearing her voice, and the next second he realized, he was already in front of her, his Auburn eyes peered into her blue eyes "I have been waiting for you, my treasure"
Lyra flinched hearing his words and peeked at Blake not understanding the situation. Blake sighed tiredly and glared at Killian "You are scaring her Killian"
Killian ignored his words and pulled Lyra towards him, hugging her. He nuzzled against the crook of her neck inhaling her fragrance "Mine, my mate"
Lyra froze in her place by the sudden hug. Her heart palpitated in his embrace, even she was surprised by her unexpected emotions, she felt complete, as though her soul finally found a place to embed.
Her trembling fingers made their way towards his back welcoming his hug without any restraint. Killian smiled at her actions, he knew what she was feeling. It was mate’s lure that was affecting both of them. After coming into contact with each other’s soulmates, it is difficult for them to separate from one another and if they are forced to separate then it may cause soul suffering, and usually, males die from it, and females will never find serenity after that.
