Aurelia stirred, she felt someone's lips on her mouth and frowned. Who was kissing her? Wait, am I still alive or in shark belly? Sea python!!! Her eyes immediately snapped open in fright. But rather than the expected sea python, she saw a handsome man bent over her. He was kissing her! "Pervert!" Aurelia screamed and slapped the man. Reagan blinked in confusion and stood up. "Excuse me?" He asked in anger. Ungrateful bitch. "How dare you try to take advantage of me, I will kill you!" Aurelia roared and sat up. She felt a gentle breeze on her body and looked down at herself. She was completely naked! She gasped and dived back to the bed covering herself with the duvet while shivering. "What did you do to me?" She whispered in fear. "I was giving you mouth to mouth! You have been unconscious for a day now. I have been channeling some of my powers into you just to keep you alive. What I will never have done even if someone begged me with millions in his hands. I channeled my life blood to you bitch! I applied some medicine on your wounds, yeah. I undressed you, cleaned you up and gave everything to ensure you live. But how did you repay me? You slapped me! How dare you!" He roared in fury. Aurelia shivered and looked down. "Who asked you to do all those things" "What? Ungrateful wench!" "I'm thankful that you saved me, of course, but you shouldn't have undressed me." Aurelia said looking up. She looked at the man's face for the first time and gasped. He was so handsome. He was shirtless and he had a sexy eight pack, his skin was toned with a lithe frame. He was tall and had a little bit of muscles, but not enough to make him look hulky. He was more handsome than male models from the human world. His eyes were like liquid gold. She gulped down saliva. She had totally forgotten the sassy words she was about to drop. "Like what you see?" Reagan asked chuckling. Aurelia looked up trying to cover up her embarrassment. "You can send me home now. My father will reward you" Reagan chuckled. "How exactly can your father reward me. Is he richer than I?" "I don't know you sir but I assure you, his reward will make you satisfied" Reagan began to laugh again confusing Aurelia. "I didn't save you for some damn reward dear. Having someone that wants you dead as your sibling is really tiring and unfortunate. At first, you will refuse to believe it. You will excuse their betrayals till it gets too late. They would have hit you with a devastating blow, before you realize that your enemy is none other than your blood" Reagan said squatting beside Aurelia. He gently raised her face. "You shouldn't be crying you know. You were almost eaten by sharks before I could save you. There was damage to your skull too. Worse, your wolf was nowhere to be found making your treatment tedious. If you were rescued by another person, you would have died anyways or remained in coma" Aurelia looked up frightened, "Those things pursuing me were really sharks?" She asked shivering. Reagan nodded "one had already caught the edge of your shirt" Aurelia shivered in fear. "The sea phython was there too?" Aurelia asked still shivering as she held the duvet to herself. Reagan laughed. "I was the sea phython. I wrapped my arms around your waist and you fainted after shouting sea phython. When I heard your voice transmission, I froze. However I couldn't smile at the irony because you urinated on me right after I carried you up". "I didn't. It must have been sea water" Aurelia argued in shame. "Thank you. Can you send me home. And buy me some clothes? Don't worry my dad will reimburse you" "Seems you don't get it little girl. There's nothing your father can offer me?" "Then what do you want? To sell me?. My father may not be the richest but he's rich enough to reward you handsomely" "Is your father richer than the lycan king?" Reagan asked chuckling. "Eh?" Aurelia asked in confusion. "If he's not, then there's no need going there for my reward, Aurelia" "How..did you know my name? Who are you?" Reagan smiled coldly and looked up. "I am Reagan king. Lycan king to you!" Aurelia shivered as she felt a trace of his aura. She felt like prostrating before him. His powers were suppressing her bloodline. She had never felt this way before despite being a latent wolf. Her powerful bloodline had always ensured her safety even before Alphas. Reagan had converged his aura previously. She looked up in fear, Reagan king. The merciless demon who deals with traitors and enemies harshly. Who fought and killed one thousand soldiers alone when he was ambushed. The legend. He's definitely not a kind man, why save her? "Your majesty, why did you save me" Aurelia asked in trepidation. "Haven't you felt it yet?" He asked in a low voice. "Felt what?" "You're my mate" Aurelia gasped. What? She's the all powerful Reagan king's mate? Wait didn't oliver reject her just days ago? The godess already found her second chance? All of a sudden she became depressed. His voice drew her attention back to him. "I had felt the mate bond from faraway. I felt your fear and desperation. I quickly teleported to you, but you were almost gone. I heard you calling out for your dad in your mind" Reagan said softly rubbing her hair. At once Aurelia felt comfortable and began to relax, but his next words gave her a heart attack. "Are you a latent wolf?" Tears filled Aurelia's eyes, not again. She nodded. "Yeah, I couldn't wake my wolf. Am strong enough now, you can go ahead and reject me. Am ready" Aurelia said, looking up bravely at him. Reagan frowned. "Why will I do that?" "I know you're a powerful man, why would you want a weak mate? No need to pity me. I can bear it" Aurelia said, biting her lips. She was scared of the pain but it's better to get it over and done with, rather than prolong the certain torment. Reagan leaned up and caressed her face. "I have waited more than a decade to find my mate. I had searched everywhere for her. I thought the goddess has abandoned me to a lonely life as punishment for my sins. How can I let go of you baby?" He whispered "But am latent.." "I don't care!. I will keep you beside me no matter how dangerous it gets" Reagan whispered and hugged her, at once Aurelia began to whimper as tears filled her eyes. Reagan pushed her away and looked into her eyes. "The king's mate must not cry, she must be strong, ruthless and capable. The world is filled with my enemies who are all eager to kill me. They're working tirelessly to find a weakness. Your life is about to get harder" Reagan said, making Aurelia shiver.
