Chapter 98
“Well, everybody sees you as a ruthless hybrid King”
Do you?” He straightened his back.
| continued. “And... and you rule the kingdom and everybody is your subject.”
“Why did you try to run away from me?” Another question. This was getting awkward.
| just wanted to have my freedom 1 answered, mustering scourage that | did not believe | had.
“So, have | chained you! Are you imprisoned? Eros demanded and | could feel the way he was trying really hard
to keep his anger at bay.
“No. | don’t know” | finished lamely and | could feel the sadness in his eyes.
“So you thought a random stranger would offer you money, and promise you to take you somewhere and you
blindly believed him? What are you? Ten?”
| widened my eyes at that. He had been busy with the shop owner and the flock of girls talking to him. When did
he see
Luke slippingthe money”
“You know?”
Eros gave a mirthless chuckle and raised his hands in the air before they fell limply by his sides, smacking his
thighs.
“Do | know? Of course, | do. What do you think | am? A stupid fool? That guy was trapping you, and you fell for
his trap like
an idiot.
| felt hurt by his accusations but I could not argue much because it was true “I know and | am sorry. | just wasn’t
thinking”
Eros nodded his head. | bet you weren't. So tellwhat made you wish to do that? You have been living with

“I just needed sanswers, and wanted to go to the somewhere to find them.”
Eros ccloser, his tall frtowering overand looked down at“That is not the answer to my
question.”
I gulped, “I was sold to you as a breeder or a slave or whatever. | don’t think | want just that for my life.”
A muscle in his jaw ticked and | saw the way the air left his nostrils that flared in irritation.
“Did | ever treat y
you like that?” He demanded.
“No, you did not but
“But what?” He boomed.
| took a deep breath to calm my nerves but it was not working. He inched even closer and the urge to lean into
him was maddening. | couldn't function with him so close to me.
Arguing with him while he was so close was a herculean task. And | had had too many drinks to hold a straight
conversation for long.
His eyes bore intoas if they had the ability to look at my soul and find out all my secrets.
“Look, | know | made a mistake and | am

Do you have any fucking idea what would have happened if | was a second late? That injection... he would have
he.” Eros could not even finish the line and it madefeel terribly guilty at my stupidity all over again.
“You askedor | should say “beggedto touch you when you were in heat. And now you want to run away
from me!”
He coiled his hands into fists and slammed them on the car's bonnet, makingsqueeze my eyes shut.
His breathing was ragged and the hair had fallen on his face, partially covering the golden eyes that looked
incredibly hurt and pained
Eros was close to me, too close and his intoxicating scent was filling every fiber of my soul. His full lips were
slightly parted and | had the mad urge to lean in and capture them in my lips again.
1 had to step away from him before | did something stupid. So | tried to move away from him but his hands
trappedin a
“You are not going anywhere before you answer me”
The way a nerve jumped in his throat was makingfeel incredibly nervous. Could I lick that nerve and possibly
trail my tongue down all the way towards his chest?
| blinked and shook the thought away.
“Answer me!!” His voice rose just a little and | blurted out without thinking
“Because | don’t think you wantand I did not want to ser you with Olivia for the rest of my life.”
Eros’s eyes went wide at that and | put a hand on my mouth but it was too late. The words carrying my deepest
fear had already left my mouth. All | could do now was own them
“You did not think | wanted you. Eros repeated with a blank stare but it felt more like a question.
| tried to hold back the tears that threatened to leak from my eyes | did not want to give him the satisfaction of
knowing how it hurtto see him with someone else, how much | yearned for hum, craved his touch
| was a breeder, a loser, and a failed shifter. Not even a good alpha would want me, forget about the supremely
handshybrid king. | had to keep reminding myself of that but it still hurt nonetheless.
| swallowed “I went in heat and | begged you to mark me, pleaded with you to touchbut you were always in
control, you just did the task as if you were used to it, just like your files that you read one after the other. | don’t
want to be a file.

mentally slapped myself.
What the hell was 1blabbering? Did my words even make any sense? Maybe the drinks were spiking my
emotions, makingblurt stupidly.

And as | began to cry in front of the hybrid King, he merely kept looking at me, his hands still firmly planted on
the car's bo“Is that what you think?” Eros asked.
Now that | had made a fool of myself, why should | even hold back? It was better to empty my heart out before
he discarded.for good
At least. | would know that | had said everything | wanted to and not regret having held my tongue back for the
rest of my
life.
“What else should | think? You... you sated my desire because 1 begged you to, not because you wanted me.
And and after that, you just began ignoring ine completely. You did not even look atonce or talk to me. Then,
| saw the messages you exchanged with Olivia, | saw the way she was dancing with you in the club, seducing
you and and you were letting her
Eros’s expression changed
at that. But instead of surprise, | saw a smirk.
Chapter 98
A smirk that made my knees go weak and my heart raced at the stime. Why did he have such an effect on
me?
“So you were jealous of her? Jealous of how she got to seduce me?”
| gulped nervously as he stood straight and took a step forward. He was towering over me, his face bent low as
he kept lookingin the eye
“... that is not what | meant,” | stuttered and tried to look away but his hands found mine and he grabbed my
wrists to holdin place.
A sudden bolt of electricity zapped throughat the touch, and my stomach turned into a jumbled tangle of
heat.... heat that was pooling down there.
You can do that right here if you want, nobody is here either way.
Huh
| blinked and looked up at Eros who lowered his head to whisper in my ears.
“Seduce me
