“I can take care of this matter myself,” he told them. “Don’t worry, I will go back as soon as the hearing is done.”

Alice bit into her lip. She did not think that the hearing would end peacefully, and honestly, Lucien would be stupid if he thought that way.

Lucien himself did not think that it would end peacefully. He just did not want to implicate more people from the Silent Walkers Pack, especially the few people in his inner circle of family.

If Lucien did not want to be accompanied, no one could force their way through. Alice and Annalynne had no other choice but to watch the car that took Lucien away from the Silent Walkers Pack House depart, leaving a cloud of dust behind.

Call it premonition or bold assumption, but Lucien knew that he would not be alone after all.

He did not tell anyone the name of the hotel that he was checking into, but Ronan simply knew. He must have put a lot of people to tail him ever since he left the hospital.

The Alpha of the Infinite Eclipse Pack was sitting on a couch in the hotel lobby. He had his left arm draped around the couch’s backrest, while his other hand was holding up a book. Passing guests could not help but gush about this extraordinarily handsome man, whose simple but alluring choice of grey shirt and black pants complimented his toned body perfectly.

Unfortunately, the handsome man only had eyes for another handsome man who was just checking into the hotel.

.....

“Excuse me, Sir, but you have already been booked into a presidential suite,” the receptionist said while pushing Lucien’s card toward the latter.

Lucien was momentarily taken aback, but he quickly regained his composure. “Is that so? Thank you, then.”

The receptionist smiled and passed him the card to the presidential suite. “You are welcome. Enjoy your stay.”

Lucien looked around, searching for a certain nosy Alpha. He spotted Ronan in the lobby quickly enough. The man looked up from his book and flashed Lucien a toothy grin. Lucien rolled with his eyes and approached Ronan.

“Ronan, why are you here?”

“Because I know that you insist on going alone to the hearing.”

“And how is that of any concern to you?”

Ronan stood with a chuckle. He put his book down on the couch and reached out for Lucien’s neck. When his warm fingers brushed against the side of Lucien’s neck, the latter frowned and pushed his hand away.

“Ronan, don’t.”

It was just a little touch, but Lucien could not take it at all.

“Although you have Landon fully under your control now, he still affects your mood severely, doesn’t he?”

Lucien pressed his lips together, refusing to answer. He did not need to, because Ronan also felt it. The strength of their fated connection increased after Landon returned to Lucien’s body. Despite Lucien’s fierce resistance, he still had to give in to Landon at times. Otherwise, Landon was more than glad to dole out punishments for Lucien in form of discomfort or bad mood.

“Landon is just so attached to you because you keep popping up,” Lucien said in an accusatory tone. “If you stay away, his feelings will also cool down.”

Ronan stared at Lucien in disbelief. Did he think that Landon was a little pup who had poor memory retention? To think that Lucien would diminish their fated connection down to a simple “out of sight, out of mind”.

“That is not true and you know that,” Ronan called him out on it.

Lucien scoffed.

“So what if it isn’t true? Ronan, I... This is not the right time to even think about having an affair.”

Ronan was stumped. Was that what Lucien thought about him all this time?

The Alpha pulled Lucien by his waist into his embrace. It was like hugging a block of ice that refused to melt despite his warmth. Ronan could not help but chuckle.

“What is so funny?” Lucien asked in irritation.

Ronan whispered his answer directly into Lucien’s ear.

“It is not funny or anything. I just want to tell you that although I long to undress you this very second and have my way with you, I will not do anything until we finish dealing with the Night Prowler Pack.”

Lucien scowled at Ronan.

“And what makes you think that I need you to help me deal with the Night Prowler Pack?”

“Easy,” Ronan answered confidently as he ran his hands up from Lucien’s waist to his back.

“I will keep you company so that nothing happens before the hearing. This is the Hapsborough City after all. Kinnon will also be here tonight.”

Upon hearing Kinnon’s name, Lucien flinched from discomfort. Landon was clawing furiously inside him. He knew that Ronan was right. Landon despised Kinnon enough to kill him. If he had been left alone in the Hapsborough City a day before the hearing and he ran into Kinnon, who knew what ugly things might unfold?

Whatever happened would not be in Lucien’s favor. Annalynne was suspected of trying to murder Kinnon once. And then he also almost ripped Kinnon into two the night of the Moon Banquet. He should be glad that the Werewolf Council did not ask Annalynne to come along. Lucien could not afford to mess this hearing up.

The man lifted his gaze seductively and smiled at Ronan.

“In that case, will the Alpha please kindly stay with me so I don’t rip Kinnon Youngshaper or any other werewolves into pieces?”

Ronan laughed.

“Sure, I shall keep Mr. Clearwater busy so that he can not think about anyone else but me.”
