Chapter 116 The Only Way to Treat Jealousy

“Theo?!”

This time, I almost spat out the small amount of liquor in my mouth. I patted my chest until the coughing stopped.

Heat climbed up my face as I thought about the nights in the past week. Every night, I was in Theo’s bed and every night, he was so… vigorous and demanding!

He had been eager to explore my body in different ways, and all I could do was give in to the extreme desires and plea- sure under his lead. Once I even questioned him whether he really was a virgin like he claimed himself to be. How else would he seem so experienced at it?

“I’m just that gifted!” he claimed with a mysterious and proud smile.

Now I knew why. So… it turned out that he had asked Jake to do the dirty work for him?!

I pinched the bridge of my nose.

Should I have a conversation with Theo for the sake of Brook and Jake’s relationship?

Brook was so worked up now, I didn’t think she remem- bered I was there. She was in full-on rant mode.

“Why did he have to make up such obvious lies? We all know that King Theo is single, and he has no interest in wom- en whatsoever. There were a few girls who tried to seduce him

and he didn’t even spare them a glance! I didn’t mean you, Ciana. You’re a different case.”

“I…”

“I know he cares about you. You’re his friend and he re- spects you, but it’s not like you guys are together!”

Jake probably hadn’t told anyone about Theo and I, and I appreciated that. After all, with everything going on, I wasn’t sure it was the right time for us to publicize our relationship, but Brook was someone I could trust to keep a secret.

I probably should let her know that Jake most likely wasn’t lying.

But Goddess, how could I even start to explain this?

Should I really just be blunt with Brook that Theo and I had been making love and he probably did ask Jake to do this… assignment?

I felt my face was burning hot. Thankfully, Brook didn’t notice that. Even if she did, she would think it was due to the

alcohol.

“Um…Brook, there’s something I want to tell you…”

“Don’t stop me. I know you’ll try to defend Jake because he is your friend too! Honestly, I couldn’t believe it! I wish he was just honest with me… It’s not a big deal if… he wants to read porn, but why would he make up such a lie?”

“Brook, just take a breath…”

Brook took her champagne from me again and took a gentle sip. It seemed like talking about things had allowed her

to calm down some.

“I’m sure there is a reasonable explanation. I can ask Theo about it, if you want,” I offered, deciding to leave this subject

like that.

“No, no. You don’t need to, Ciana: This is our problem, and we need to figure it out! You’re already kind enough to hear me vent, and you have a lot going on. I won’t bother you, and certainly not the king, with my silly issues like this!”

Oh, Brook…

I made a promise in my heart that one day I would clear Jake’s name for her.

Instinctively, I searched for Theo in the crowd. He was standing with several other officials.

“Um… we can talk about that later,” Brook said. “It seems like they’re discussing something important.”

I nodded to her and got a little closer to Theo. He’d been so busy all night and I wanted to talk to him before another group of officials took his attention. If I could sneak in when he finished his current conversation, I could get a few sec- onds of his time.

I stood by a pillar, a little out of sight, and heard some of their conversations.

When he caught a glimpse of me, the corner of his lips slightly curled up and formed a faint smile. I was again dazed by his god-like handsome face.

It was still hard to believe that he was mine.

“Now that you’ve been crowned, it is time for you to start thinking about choosing a Luna Queen, Your Majesty,” one of the officials said.

“If you’re not ready to choose a queen, you should at least have a concubine and produce an heir. It will keep your blood- line strong and show the kingdom you’re committed to stabil- ity and longevity,” another said.

“I’m aware of the necessity. I already have a candidate in mind for my Luna Queen,” Theo said. “I just need a little more time to think about it.”

His eyes shifted to me.

My heart sped up a little and I bit my lower lip.

We hadn’t talked about that at all, but of course, I had been thinking about it.

What would my future be like?

I would like to stay by Theo’s side… but he was the king! Was I ready to take on the role of the queen?

What if he asked me? What should I say?

If Theo was an ordinary citizen, or an Alpha of any other pack, I would bounce up to hug him and say yes.

However, he was the king! And I wasn’t so confident about myself. If I were to be with him, I’d have a lot to learn to live up to the role I was supposed to take as the co-ruler of the country…

“In that case, what should we do with the group of prospective consorts still hanging around the castle, should

we dismiss them?” the official asked.

“Hmm…”

I expected Theo to jump on that question and quickly tell the officials to dismiss them all. He’d been wanting to since we all arrived. Now that he and I were taking things to the next level, I thought he’d be happy to send the rest of the girls home.

“No. Leave them to me, for now,” he finally answered.

My heart sank suddenly. All around me, other girls that had come with me to the palace were casually listening in on the conversation. They started muttering excitedly to each. other.

“Who does the king want as his Luna Queen?”

“I don’t know, but he said he’s close.”

“One of us could be the next Luna Queen.”

They gushed and squealed and giggled about it all.

Jealousy flared in my chest and I glared at my empty. champagne glass. Setting it aside, I collected the skirts of my dress and left the celebration.

I headed into the garden to clear my head. The music and chatter became a distant murmur in the back of my mind.

I trusted Theo. I knew that he cared about me and that he wanted to be with me. And I knew that there weren’t other girls in that group he was interested in. So why was he choos- ing to still keep them around?

What if he didn’t really like me and just settled for me be- cause I was immune to his touch? What if he thought we shouldn’t be mates? What if he didn’t think I came from a strong enough pack for me to be queen?

So many questions raced through my mind.

I took in a deep breath and Theo’s familiar scent filled my nostrils. On the edge of my senses, I felt him approaching, but I didn’t want to see him right now. I was still confused and up- set about why he wanted to keep the other consort candi- dates around.

Turning away from him, I meant to head out of the garden. before he saw me.

“Ciana, what are you doing out here? I’ve been looking for you. Where are you going?” Theo asked, grabbing my arm be- fore I could get away.

“Why were you looking for me?” I asked snippily.

“I saw that you left the party. I wanted to make sure you were alright but you haven’t come back. I want to celebrate this night with you.” He cupped my cheek and smiled at me.

I almost leaned forward to kiss him. Darn this good-look- ing man!

I pulled away. “You want to celebrate with me, and all the other consorts brought to the palace?” I asked, arching an eyebrow.

“What are you talking about?”

“Obviously, you don’t just need me since you’re keeping

that entire group of girls that came to the castle with me. I’m sure one of them can celebrate with you just as well. And why not, there are a lot of girls in the group better suited for you. Trust me, I get it, you want options. I’m not going to stand in your way,” I said, pulling away from his grasp and crossing my

Theo creased his brow, then he smirked. He stepped for- ward and put his hands on my shoulders. His thumb brushed my cheek.

Why wasn’t he mad at me?

“Ack!” I cried out in surprise.

Theo scooped me up in his arms and threw me over his shoulder.

“Theo, what are you doing!?” I cried as he carried me off.

He didn’t answer me. He just carried me out of the garden. and back into the palace. When he got to his bedroom, he dropped me on the soft, comfy mattress.

“Who else could I make my wife? Who else could be that person but you? They can’t even get close to me,” he said.

I sat on the end of the bed and crossed my arms and legs, glaring at him.

“So, the only reason you want me is because I’m the only one you can touch? You don’t even have a choice in the mat- ter, right? It has nothing to do with liking me, it has to do with my immunity,” I snarled.

Theo leaned in and cupped my cheeks. He forced me to

look into his eyes and I gasped.

“Ciana Black, for my whole life, as long or short as it might be, you will be the only person I ever love. I swear to the Moon Goddess and to Dark King Lycaon that I will never love anoth- er the way I love you,” he swore, his voice serious yet tender.

My cheeks burned and I averted my eyes. “I hope that’s not your way of proposing, Theo. When you propose, it needs to be better than in your bedroom,” I muttered.

Theo smirked and lifted my face just a little higher. He pressed his lips to mine. I couldn’t resist and kissed him back. immediately.

His hands moved to my hips and he squeezed gently. I gasped as he pushed me back on the bed and hovered over

He grabbed my dress and slid the skirts up my legs slowly, then he kissed my lips as he pulled the dress up my body.

A shiver ran through me as the silk fabric brushed my thighs and my stomach. His large, warm hands grabbed my hips and squeezed again.

Moaning, I arched into his touch, my skin feeling like it was on fire.

His tongue dove past my lips and I met it with mine, a silent battle that neither of us wanted to win. When he pulled away, I whimpered, desperately wanting to feel his lips on mine again.

He smirked, “Ciana, do you want to know a secret?”

“Wh-what?” I panted.

He leaned in and whispered in my ear, “I didn’t think it was possible, but you’re even more intoxicating when you’re jeal- ous!”

After saying that, Theo tucked his hands under my knees and bent them, setting my feet flat on the mattress. He pressed his lips against the inside of my right knee, his mouth searing hot against my skin. Slowly, tantalizingly, he kissed a trail up my inner thigh.

I squirmed on the bed, my fists clenching around the comforter as his mouth moved closer and closer to my swollen core.

He slipped his finger into the edge of my panties, pulling the lacey fabric aside. Theo’s tongue flicked against my slick entrance and my legs quivered.

I moaned again, moving a hand to the top of his head. His tongue dove in, tracing every inch of my wet folds. My mind reeled with pleasure.

His tongue moved again, swirling in long, slow circles around. I cried out in pleasure and lifted my hips to meet his mouth, my fingers knotting in his hair. My legs trembled and I writhed, jerking with pleasure.

Again and again, he repeated the slow, sensual circles. My little nub throbbed with pure pleasure that grew and grew. Nothing else existed but his mouth on me. With each lick of his tongue, I got closer and closer to divinity until…

“Theo, I’m…” I gasped, my legs clenched around his head. Arching my back, I moaned and gasped as waves of pleasure

crashed through me. I felt lighter than air, like I was floating on clouds.

“The only way to treat jealousy,” he chuckled with lust, “is to let me show you just how much I love you…”
