The Love of a Lycan

Chapter 536 - SLEEPY

"NO! You can't do this without her consent!" Lana rejected it immediately, she pushed Hope behind her back and received a mocking smile from Kace, as if he was saying;if I want to do it, no one could stop me. Even though that was true.

Lana fl.u.s.tered, after the beast's warning earlier, she shouldn't have interfered with this, but she found it hard for her to know that they were going to strengthen their bond.

"Little one, come here." Kace stretched out his hand and zeroed his attention only to her. He was determined to do what he had decided.

However, Hope shook her head like a rattle drum. "No, I'm not coming there!" she shrieked.

Hope remembered that the marking was an activity that involved canines, biting and blood, despite what Rossie had explained once, that it is a sacred ritual for shapeshifters who had found their other half—mate—and that it'd cause pain which wouldn't last long, but…

Even Rossie had not yet met her mate, so how could she say for sure that the pain was supposed to be bearable? What did she know about it, anyway to say that? Especially when Kace was not in his right mind, wouldn't it possible for him to make mistake later and eat her flesh instead?

Hope shivered when these ugly scenes played in her head, it would be such a bloody, gory mess. Her imagination was running wild.

Kace frowned, he tilted his head and stared at Hope, as if she was a little girl who refused to eat. "You are my mate, this something that I should have done a long time ago."

Hope pouted, "Lidya!" she called her, asking for someone to back her up in that situation. If Kace insisted to mark her, Lana wouldn't be able to hold him back. "Tell him to not even think about that!"

"Why should I?" she yawned again. "He is your mate, sooner or later he will mark you." With that was being said, she turned around to leave the scene. "Just hang on for a few more hours, he will return to normal."

==============

A few more hours?!

Hope grumbled internally. It had been ten hours and Kace had not yet returned to normal. His eyes were still dark black as black as dark night itself and he was still bothering her about this stupid marking.

"No!" Hope snapped at him. She had lost count of how much she had shouted at him.

At first, Hope was slightly afraid of Kace, but somehow she realized that this beast could be more childish than Kace and he wouldn't do something that Hope didn't approve of.

"Why!?" Kace leaned his back and crossed his arms, his expression hardened.

They were in the first deck, enjoying their dinner, but all Kace did was bothering Hope and demanding to bite her!

What a great conversation!

"Take off that cloak! I can't smell your scent and this is very frustrating!" If he was not demanding to mark her, then he would ask Hope to take off her cloak and complaining how it covered her scent from him, over and over again.

"Lidya! Tell him!" Hope turned to glare at Lidya.

"Even you can't make the point clear, across and delivered to him, how do you thinkthat I could do better than you?" Lidya shrugged her shoulder and resumed eating. Didn't even bother to involve herself in this mess.

"Lana…" Hope turned to Lana, who avoided looking into her eyes. Meanwhile, the twins buried their nose on their bowl.

"Eat more, you are so skinny!" Kace grumbled, he shoved a mouthful chicken b.r.e.a.s.t onto her mouth. "I don't understand how this Kace took care of you!"

"You were away most of the time." Lana tried to engage more civil conversation, despite her fear because of Kace's warning earlier that morning.

"And I wonder why did he agree to everything that witch said." Kace didn't even spare Lana a glance when he was talking, he was too busy to feed his sulking mate.

"That's for Hope's safety too," Lana said.

Of course the beast knew very well why his weak human side of him agreed to Serefina's arrangement, but knowing it and agreeing with it were two different things.

"She is safe with me." Kace's grip on the spoon tightened. This female werewolf really didn't know her place and kept crossing his boundaries.

"Hope is—" Lana's words cut short coldly.

"She is safe with me!" Kace growled with finality. When suddenly many people who were sitting three tables from them, turned their head to look at him.

The beast disliked the sudden attention that was given to him, he was about to stand up, but the spark that erupted on the surface of his skin because of his mate's touch, stopped him immediately.

"I am done here, let's get some fresh air." Normal Kace wouldn't seek for a fight every now and then, but his beast was something entirely different. He didn't care who he picked a fight with.

The beast frowned, he narrowed his dark eyes to look at Hope for some time.

"Please…" Hope pleaded. There was no way Hope would let this beast went berserk here.

"Let's go," he grumbled again and took her hand to walk out of that dining hall.

"Don't forget, we will disembark in two hours." Lidya reminded them.

Kace didn't answer to that, thus Hope murmured a reply to the witch. "Okay." She still could hear the twins sighed with relief when the beast chose to leave.

Hope let the beast guided her, but then they turned to go to the second deck, instead of the upper deck, she asked in confusion.

"Where are we going?" Hope looked around, they were heading for their room apparently.

"Sleep with me," Kace said lightly, he didn't slow down either.

"W-What?!" Hope screeched, mortified. "No!" oh, this beast is unbelievable!

But, Kace deafened his ears to her complain and opened the door of his room before he shoved Hope inside and locked the door.

"Kace! You know I'll be so mad if you cross the line!" Hope's voice was very stern in her desperation, especially when Kace pushed her effortlessly to the bed. Hope shrieked in fear.

However, the next thing that the beast did was lay his head on her lap. He closed his eyes and spoke sleepily.

"I am sleepy."
