Sinful Love

CHAPTER 9

Zaden slowly stirred from his sleep. His left torso felt warmed then usual. He opens his eye to see Selena's black hair. She was tucked comfortably between his arm and torso, while her face was facing the wall on their left, exposing her slender neck to him. With a little effort, he could see her sharp nose and a part of her lips. He tried to control himself to not go any further than that but failed miserably as his eyes travelled further down, absorbing every curve from her chest till her hip, into his memory. She suddenly stirred, turned to her right and pulled her legs up, into a fetal position while her face tilted up, her lips dangerously close to his. His eyes danced on the pair of rosy lips. He felt a thirst, needy to taste he, one more time, just one more time. He slowly slipped out of his control, as he leaned a little bit further, aiming at her lips. She started to stir and that snapped him out of his intention. She slowly blinked her magnetic grey eye open before sitting up on her bed, stretching her hand above her head with a yawn.

“Good morning” she said while rubbing her eye

“Ya right, good morning” he slipped off the bed and walked away with what looked like anger to Selena's eye but he was actually disappointed to have missed an opputunity to kiss her.

“She just can't stay in one place, how hard could obedience be? Stay put, that is all she need to do” he mumbled low that only he could hear as he opened the door and left

Selena got a long bath and put on a pair of army pants and black sleeveless shirt. There was a knock on the door and Grandpa Kai peeped his head into the room

“Good morning, my dear child” he said cheerfully

“Good morning Grandpa Kai” a smile blossomed on her lips

“I have your breakfast” he lifted up his hands to reveal a tray of food

She quickly digs into her breakfast. Halfway through, she realized that Zaden didn't actually answer her question, why is it so important for them to hand her over to Samrat. She decided to ask Grandpa Kai instead

“Well, Samrat bloodline are technically kings, because they can command other pack members but the downside is that when they mate, they are always honored with only one child. Ozrain Samrat...my friend, was one of the last one. He fell in love with a human, Elisa Mitkoi, who was exceptionally beautiful by her heart. They had a baby girl. But soon, when he was 35 years old, he stumbled across his designated mate, Queen Aira. It is very difficult for Samrats to find a mate since no women can endure their strength or fight by their side. Of course, she was not less in anyway then Elisa and she cared deeply for her people. Marking her will make Ozrain stronger and more powerful, so he excepted her to be his mate and marked her but she was just a mere sexual gratification, his heart still belonged to Elisa and the dear baby girl” Grandpa Kai pinched Selena's nose. She sprang out of her seat and started pacing around

“Wait, this sound familiar. The queen sees him crying at night and agreed to bring home Elisa, but she would have died due to childbirth by the time he gets there, isn't it?” Grandpa Kai eyes widened

“How did you know that?” he asked in disbelief

“And the king went looking for the child from one house to another..and.. and he would kidnap any child that stands at the doorway in the middle of night” she said with doubt

“Ok, now that part isn't accurate, child” Grandpa Kai disagreed when the door behind Selena opened and Zaden showed up. He froze there when he saw Grandpa Kai already in the room. Another girl followed him with a breakfast trolley. She excused herself and pushed the trolley into the room, stopped at nearby table and chair, bowed at them and left the room quietly.

“Your breakfast” he pointed at the trolley, low, hesitated voice while his eye was at floor level but she gave him a cold glaze before turning back to Grandpa Kai to resume the conversation

“How did you know about Ozrain Samrat?” Grandpa asked

“My grandma Genesis use to tell me this story before bedtime. We thought it is a made up story. Never wondered that it is actually about my roots” Selena said with confusion

“Then your Grandma must have known something to proof your link to Samrat” Grandpa Kai shifted his eye to Zaden. Zaden nodded

“Where is your Grandma Genesis?” Zaden asked with a stern look.
