Chapter 111: We could be mates

As she leaned down, lying back down on the pillows, her eyes searching his with fervency, she feared she might have asked too much.

But since he was being so considerate towards her tonight, she might as well be a little pushy.

Koan stared at her for such a long time that she feared he might kick her out of the room.

"You... You really don’t have to." She stuttered at the end.

"If there’s anyway I have to thank you for saving my cousin’s life, then I guess this could be the right time." He sighed after, slowly lifting the duvet, lifting his legs up from the floor, into the sheets.

Nancy jerked towards him with an excited glint in her eyss.

"So... you’ll stay here? with me?"

"Yeah? Isn’t that what you want?"

She nodded cutely, however, she had other plans which she didn’t want to let him know yet.

"What are you doing?" She suddenly asked, pulling the blankets to her chin, staring intensely at him.

He gave her ’What type of question is that’?

"I’m putting on a shirt."

"N- No. Don’t!"

He was a bit startled from her sudden outburst and glared at her with a complicated look.

"What?"

She bit her lip and shyly scanned her eyes over the glistening taunt torso under the lights in the room. Koan followed her gaze before the edge of his lips forced their way up again. He cupped his jaw with the tip of his fingers, glancing to the side before turning to her.

Without a word, he reached over and switched off the lights before climbing into bed, bare chested.

There was silence, as they lay side by side, staring at the ceiling up ahead.

Nancy’s heart was In chaos, thinking how fate had actually brought them together like this. It wasn’t close to a mate mark or any special bond between them, but the fact that she is was in his room, lying side by side with him.

It was almost unbelievable.

Koan on his other part was thinking about the Kitsune they had encountered at the mountains earlier. He had so many unanswered questions in his mind. How had Nancy recognized the creature?

The Kitsune admitted she was scheming? What exactly was their plan? Why were they suddenly killing his kind like ants?

There was something very suspicious about her suddenly changing her mind about killing them- well she had attempted to and had succeeded in killing his men once again, she didn’t really show interest in wanting to kill them any more.

He wanted to berrate Nancy with so much questions concerning how she was able to recognize the creature, but he didn’t think she’d be in the right mind and state to answer so he’d just leave it for another day.

Nancy suddenly turned to her side and just about that moment, Koan turned away from her.

Another silence settled in the room as she just lay there staring at his back, while he tried to sleep, unaware of how his prescence affected her so much.

Soon, his eyes was groggily forced open when he felt something small curl around his waist, a warm sensation at his back.

He almost chuckled at the situation he was in, however he tried to remain indifferent.

She spooning him from behind.

After what seemed like minutes, he finally turned and their eyes locked in the dark, Nancy gulping, slowly removing her hands under the intensity of his gaze.

"Turn to your other side." He suddenly ordered, startling her.

"I... "

"Now."

Feeling a bit dejected, she turned away, pulling the blankets around her body, a bit cold From being rejected; not until she suddenly felt a large arm curl around her waist before feeling her back rest against a hard solid chest.

She cast her eyes down, hiding a small smile, the familiar warm breath of his resting against her neck as he slept.

Yawning, she cuddled, huddling up into his embrace like a small child before holding onto his arm, slowly drifting off to sleep.

"Goodnight Koan." She subconsciously said as she slept.

He didn’t reply, however, his arm tightened possessively around her before he slept off soon.

Once Raiden helped her onto the bed, Liliana suggested she wanted a shower.

"You need rest... you’re already weak, you can’t possibly have a bath in your condition."

"I didn’t break Raiden. I just- almost fell off a cliff. Stop being paranoid. I can’t sleep at night with taking a bath."

When he didn’t reply, but just gazed at her with an annoyed look, she slowly grabbed his arm and shot him a helpless look.

"Maybe, you can help me?"

"No," He suddenly got up. "No way."

"But... "

He sighed. "I know where this is going. I’ll help you take off your clothes or something, you’ll seduce me and I’ll end up falling into your trap and doing something to you."

Liliana was suddenly irritated.

"So? Why do you make it sound like it’s a problem? You’re a grown man and I’m a woman. I can seduce you because I’m infatuated with you. We could be mates Raiden."

"Stop saying nonsense Liliana. You can’t just assume that. We could start dating and we wouldn’t end up as fated mates. The moon goddess is very unpredictable at times."

"Then why can’t you just believe me when I actually say it for once?!"

"Liliana... " Raidne sighed.

But she wasn’t listening, she slowly stood up and wobbled to the bathroom, her feet a bit still shaky, yet to recover from the shock of almost falling down the mountain.

Raiden so badly wanted to leave, but he was helpless when it came to acting nonchalant around her. She was so damn clumpsy. She could hurt herself.

Running his hand through his face, he entered the bathroom and approached her. She was tying a robe around her at that moment while a steaming hot water was running in her bathtub Along with cold water.

"That was fast." He commented.

She glanced up at him and looked down with a pout, tying the robe about her.
