Ileus: The Dark Prince Chapter 603 - Festival (2)

Chapter 603 - Festival (2)

As soon as Olivia and Kaizan were out of the royal tent, the next moment they heard a whoosh of air. When they looked back, they saw Dmitri holding his wife in his strong muscular arms and growling near her neck over his mark. The next moment, thick fog surrounded them and the two were gone.

Kaizan shook his head. "This festival does this to the royal family every time! The men are unable to contain their emotions."

Olivia giggled. "They have lovely wives. I wonder if the women are able to control themselves." She waved at Ileus who was walking in front of them at some distance with his wife's wing curled around him. "I mean look at him. He is so handsome. And those muscular shoulders and broad chest are to die for."

Jealous as h.e.l.l, Kaizan stopped in his tracks. "What do you mean?" he asked, gritting his teeth, narrowing his eyes. His chest began heaving. Red blasted in his vision. His muscles bulged and fists rolled into tight b.a.l.l.s.

She sighed and placed her palm on his chest where his heart was. "Don't you get your knickers twisted, my dear. This one is already taken." Then she removed her palm and kissed his heart.

He wrapped his arm around her waist and wedged his thigh in between her legs. She bit her lip and pushed with her free hand against his chest. "Don't you dare appreciate any man, and I mean any man, in front of me!"

She raised an eyebrow. "You mean I can do that behind you?" She knew wolves loved to chase. It was their basic instinct. And she wanted to provoke him for a chase.

He growled. "Especially not behind me."

She removed herself from him slowly and gulped down her wine. Then she leaned in a little towards him and whispered, "I will." And with those words, Olivia backtracked a little, turned and broke into a run with Kaizan on her tail. She laughed and laughed as she sprinted, trying her best to stay in the lead.

"You can't run forever, Olivia!" he shouted. "And when I catch you, you are gone for the day!" The way her hips moved, and the way her b.r.e.a.s.t.s jiggled—she made him crazy. All he wanted now was to strip her off her strings and get deep inside her. How dare she run away from him?

d.a.m.n her hot wolf. Her thigh muscles clenched but she didn't stop. It was not long before she realized that she had lost him. To catch her breath, she stopped. She placed her hands on her hips and panted. She had come to one of the edges of the garden. There was a small cl.u.s.ter of trees behind which she spied smoke. Right after the cl.u.s.ter, she could see that the lands beyond were still snowing.

Olivia heard laughter of men and women and saw more smoke swirling. Avoiding the group, she turned back to locate Kaizan as her mind concocted various teases when all at once she heard footsteps behind her.

"Oh, look who we have here?" Tasha said in a voice that carried as if she had tasted bitterness.

Olivia snapped her head back. Tasha had come out from that group and was only a few steps away, smoking a pipe. Olivia rolled her eyes and turned to leave when she found herself immediately surrounded by three men and one more woman other than Tasha. They sneered at her and she knew those looks. Her instincts went on high alert. "What do you want?" she asked Tasha, tipping her chin up.

Through the haze of smoke, she puffed from her pipe, Tasha said, "So, did you meet your Alpha?"

Olivia clenched her jaw. She could easily sense that Tasha wanted a confrontation. Even if she wanted, she could never break the circle of these werewolves. They would all pounce on her together and beat her up. But she wouldn't go down so easily. She was a trained warrior. Olivia chose not to reply.

Tasha tilted her head and clucked her tongue. "Everyone knows that you belong to that traitorous pack. Murtagh is one b.a.s.t.a.r.d who leeches and thrives on the funds of the queen while staying under house arrest." She spat on the side. "You are his Beta's daughter and now General Kaizan's wife. Isn't that interesting?" She puffed more smoke on her face. "We all have a reason to believe that you will show your loyalty to Alpha Murtagh and deceive Kaizan in a heartbeat."

Olivia chuckled at Tasha scornfully. "You seem to be very interested in my husband's benefit?" She crossed her arms across her chest. She had to change the topic because she knew where Tasha was leading it to. "Why is that? Were you his former lover?"

Unfazed at her words, Tasha shrugged. "Yes, we were lovers. He did things to me you can't even imagine. Whenever he returned from his battles or trips to other kingdoms, he sought me. However, all of a sudden, when he came back a month ago, the king announced that he would be married to you, a traitor's daughter." She peeled her lips back from her fangs as her hands dropped to her sides. "He was so tense. He refused to meet me after that decree. And when I look at him right now, I understand his tension."

"You are delusional!" Olivia retorted. "And now move out. I need to get back to my husband."

"f.u.c.k you, b.i.t.c.h!" Tasha growled. Other men closed in on her. "Leave him if you still have a semblance of dignity left."

Olivia's muscles strained. She tsked. "Tasha, if YOU have some dignity left, you would leave thinking about him." At this point her gaze flitted to find Kaizan was. Her mind link with the Whiteclaw pack had weakened considerably, but her mind link with Kaizan hadn't picked up. "Stop dreaming about him and you will feel better. He is my husband and will remain so forever." Tasha snarled and picked up her hand to slap Olivia, but Olivia raised her eyebrow and said, "I don't want you to end up in the dungeons."

Retracting her hand in a fist, Tasha retorted, "If I was you, I would take a dagger and plunge it in Murtagh's chest to show your loyalty to Kaizan and the king."

Olivia replied in a low feral voice, "That's absurd. I have already shown loyalty to not only the Whiteclaw pack, but also to Silver Vales by marrying the man who was our number one enemy." Saying that she nudged the man in front of her and walked out the place, breaking the circle that stifled her. So, Tasha was his fallback lover. She pursed her lips and jogged away from there, feeling jealous. She wanted to kill Tasha for being with him. Tears stung her eyes and when she was far away from them in a secluded spot, she leaned her arm against a tree to calm herself. She heard moans and groans from a cl.u.s.ter of wildflowers behind the tree. And when she peeped, she saw red strings and two bodies.

"Oh Ileus!" Anastasia moaned. Her legs were up in the air and Ileus was wedged between her thighs, thrusting like a piston.
