Chapter 47

Book:Lycan King's Substitute Bride Published:2024-10-27

Prescott’s POV
The sun shone brightly, almost making me go blind as I moved my face up to the sky. I could feel the warm sun on my bare back as I transformed back to human form.
I moved my gaze around, only to meet with the stillness of the environment as if no one had ever existed here before.
“Your Majesty!” one of the pack warriors called, rushing up to me with neatly folded washed jeans and a black Tee in his hands.
Huh? I raised my brows as I never asked for clothes to change into.
He bowed his head as soon as he got to me, not wanting to make eye contact with my naked body. “Alpha asked me to fetch your Majesty some clothes to change in,” he uttered as if he was reading my mind. How could he know what was on my mind?
I smirked, staring at the clothes in his hands. How the hell did he know what I love to wear? My eyebrows raised as I stared at the young guy who bowed before me with his hands stretched.
Just then, a thought flashed through my mind and I shook my head lightly. If Nova was in my apartment and some other people went to take clothes for me, she would have offered to help them, right?
Not wanting to believe that Nova was the one who took out my dress. How nice of her to know the kind of dress I wear.
I smiled before taking the shirt from the guy and sliding it over my head, “Did my Queen give this to you, or did you fetch them yourself?” I asked, pulling the shirt down my chest.
He nodded before handing me a short. “The Queen took it out and handed them over to me.”
A smile tugged at my lips as I slid my legs into the shorts and jeans. Pulling it up as the smile deepened. What was she thinking while taking out my shorts? Did she frown her face in disgust or did she smile at it?
Would have been much better if she sniffed my scents.
I shook my head, trying to get the thought of Nova off my head, but it seemed like she was the only thing on my head at the moment, so I let it be.
“Where are the others?” I asked, doing the zipper of my trousers.
“They are on the other side,” he mumbled, I nodded, adjusting my shirt. “The injured ones have been taken to the infirmary,” he added, before straightening on his feet.
“Oh,” I groaned, never knew people were injured. “How many were injured? And what are their identities?” I questioned, taking a step forward.
The guy made a turn and started walking behind me at a slow pace. “About fifteen people were injured. Most of them were maids who weren’t aware of the situation.”
I hastily stopped on my track, making the guy stop as well to hear me out. “What were their conditions, I mean, the injured?” I clenched my fist to my sides as the thought of what the rogue at the residents’ house said to me was making sense to me now.
“Six were so badly hurt that it might take days for them to heal,” he uttered, slowly dropping his gaze to the floor.
“That’s bad.” I gulped, feeling a little bit guilty for coming late. I never knew the rogues would decide to rain war on them, on a day like this.
“You go to the infirmary and check how they were doing. Before the end of the day, report to me the conditions of those that were badly hurt.” I ordered, and the guy bowed to me before walking away.
“Shit!” I cursed, marching towards the hallway that led to my apartment. Nova was still there, and I wanted to get back to her as soon as possible.
She might be worried sick about me, considering how she was stammering earlier when I was with her, it showed that she was worried.
“Your Majesty!” a voice called, I turned around to see one of my warriors, running up to me.
“Yes, Czar, what is the problem?” I asked, staring at the guy whose palms were filled with dried blood.
“The captives were in the interrogating room as Your Majesty has ordered. We are waiting for you to decide when the interrogation will start.” Czar announced, his hands were intertwined to his back.
“Good. You guys did a great job.” I smiled, I couldn’t help but praise the men who were fighting for this pack like it was theirs.
“Thank you, Your Majesty.” he returned the smile, his head bowed a little.
“Tell Alpha Randale to prepare the interrogating room and I will be there shortly after I check up on my Quenn.” I took a deep breath before turning away from the warrior.
“Yes, Your Majesty!” his voice echoed through the hallway as I made my way to my apartment, I didn’t know why I had asked Nova to seek refuge in my apartment when it didn’t seem like a limit for the rogues.
A part of me assured me that Nova would be saved in there since the building wasn’t among the building and rooms that were marked out by the rogues.
A thought flashed through my mind and I shrugged off my shoulders when I couldn’t think of a better reason why the rogue would want my Queen.
“We shall find out later, For now, I need to see her.”
I opened the door and stepped into the living room to see Nova pacing back and forth, I couldn’t move as I held the door while staring at her.
Was she worried about me, or her people? The corner of my lips curved into a small smile as I watched her, moving back and forth with her back on me.
Suddenly, she turned and our gaze met. Her jaw dropped and tears dropped from her eyes.
“Your Majesty?!” she cried out, running up to me as if her life depended on it. She spread her arms and jumped into my outstretched arms.
“What took you so long, Your Majesty!” she sobbed, wrapping her arms around my neck.
“I’m sorry,” I gulped, moving away from the door, “I didn’t know I would be gone for that long.” I caressed her back as I moved gently to the couch, I sat down while making her sit comfortably on my lap with her face buried in my chest.
“Did you hurt yourself?” Nova asked, moving her face off my chest and staring at me with her gaze blurry with tears.
“Hmm, hmm,” I shook my head, smiling and she moved her hands to my face, cupping my cheeks in her palms as she checked for any cut on my face.
I chuckled softly, seeing how serious she was with my face. Face is not the only place people get hurt, but I found it funny that she thought my face was the only place I could get hurt.
“Why are you laughing?” Nova busted into another round of tears and I felt my jaw dropped in shock.
“I wasn’t laughing.” I denied, smiling as she took her palms off my face and hit my chest with her fist.
Did she just think her fist would hurt me? What a girl?! I chuckled inwardly but I still had to tease her a little.
“Aargh!” I cried out, she stopped hitting my chest and stared at me with an expression that showed she was feeling guilty.
“Does it hurt?” she pouted her lips, tears shimmered in her eyes as she stared at me with her cute little bottle-green eyes.
I held back my laughter as I nodded my head. “Yes, it hurt so much that I want to cry right now.” I groaned, moving my palm to my chest, rubbing it while maintaining eye contact with her.
“I’m sorry.” she sniffed, looking away from me as she dried her tears with her thumb.
I smiled, snaking my Index finger under her jaw, raising her face to look at me. “Don’t be sorry because I love it.”
“Don’t mess around with me!” she yelled, slapping my chest as if she was losing her cool.
“Again.” I moaned, smiling as she slapped my chest again, This time it was a little harder.
“Again.” I chuckled.
Nova hissed, She gave me a sad glare before moving on my lap, trying to get down from my lap, and probably move very far away from me.
“You’re really cute.” I smiled, tugged at her collar and gently pulled her closer. “I’m sorry if I made you cry.”
I moved my palms to her cheeks, cupping her cheeks as I wiped her tears with my thumbs.
She sniffed, staring at me with a faint smile on her face. Our faces were an inch apart and we both felt the hot breath on our faces.
She leaned a little forward, closing the little distance between us. Our lips met and she gently moved her lips to mine.
I smiled, before snaking my hand under her shirt. I moved my hand on her back and I could feel the warmness of her bare back on my cold palm. I loosened the hook of her bra and felt her move on my lap while she depended on the kiss.
I traced my fingers on the strap of the bra until it stopped on the slit. I slipped my hand under the double foam bra and gripped her breast in my palm, I rubbed my thumb on her erect nipple and then pinched it which earned me a gasp from Nova.
Nova groaned before disengaging from the kiss and moved her face away, panting heavily as she tried to catch her breath.
“What the hell was that?” she laughed, trying to move her hand to her breast but I gripped her hand and traced her hand on my chest. Before placing it on my erect dick.
“You should be touching this instead.” I winked.
“Oh, goddess!” Nova gasped and hastily withdrew her hand from my dick, slapping my chest playfully. “You’re unbelievable.” she chuckled, wrapped her arms around my neck and moved her body closer to mine.
“Thank you!” She smiled, burying her face into my chest and I slowly ran my palm on her back.
