Chapter 179: Chapter 179

"Alastor, how are things going? Is my bride happy?" Killian asked.

Alastor glared at Killian who was lying up on a makeshift bed for more than an hour now. "You would know if you leave this tent and take a look around. The princess has been getting ready from the moment she arrived. She must be putting on her dress by now. You should start putting on your clothes in the next few minutes. The wedding will start shortly."

"Hmm. Very good. Can you believe that I will become a husband?" Killian asked, sitting up from where he had been sleeping.

"No," Alastor bluntly replied. "If not for wanting to stop you from destroying her kingdom, I know the princess would not be marrying you today. I did expect you would have to force some young lady to marry you. How she tolerates your playful nature is a mystery."

"It sounds like you have come to like Amelia. Each time you speak of her these days, you admire something about her without realizing it. Make sure it stops at admiring her. It would hate to rip your head off for having eyes for my woman," Killian causally spoke but he meant his threat. "You know I am not the type to share which is why I never let the devil borrow you."

"I know. I have bad luck being stuck with you for the rest of my life and you are wrong about me admiring the princess. I am only glad there is someone else to share my burden of dealing with you. I do not admire humans," Alastor replied.

"My eyes must deceive me because I have caught you smiling when you taunt the maid. Are you not having fun when you are around her? A wedding is a perfect time for the two of you to fool around with each other while everyone else is focused on Amelia and me. Why do you seem annoyed?" Killian commented on Alastor’s expression.

"I have told you time and time again to stop spying on me and if I were to ever grow an interest in humans it would be one who shares the same common sense as me. Just because you have fallen for the charms of a human does not mean everyone else around you will. Now, get ready before I find myself strangling you. Why am I even here?" Alastor muttered as he was not needed for this wedding.

Alastor did not care for weddings nor did he care to be surrounded by humans.

"You are the person I have chosen to deal with conflict at the border and whatever problems that Blackwells shall have. Amelia will be involved in ruling the north by my side so there won’t be much work for you to do. Do me a favor and find my hellhounds for me but watch your fingers. I have not seen them since I returned to the north and they must be hungry. Wouldn’t want you to become their meal," Killian said while he stripped.

Alastor turned away from Killian to give him privacy. Unlike many demons he knew, men were not his taste and though he had the misfortune of walking in on Killian with nothing on, he did not want to witness the sight again. "Please save your nakedness for the princess and I will not be feeding those wolves. I wish to keep my fingers."

"If there is anyone you dislike, send them to feed the hounds. They will make a good snack and you will be rid of the person. Why must I wear this ridiculous clothing? I would rather be without a shirt and I am sure Amelia would enjoy the view of me shirtless," Killian said with so much confidence that he would bet Loki’s life she would say she preferred him shirtless.

"Killian," Alastor groaned, tired of hearing about Killian’s body.

"What? I caught her staring at me. My ego has never been more boosted than seeing her lust after me."

"Your wedding night is not far away. Calm your thoughts until then," Alastor said, wishing to hear no more of Killian being shirtless.

"I do not know if we will have a wedding night like everyone is expecting. She has prepared herself but there is something about not going along with what the humans expect of us that makes me want to make this wedding official tomorrow night instead. Who was it that created all these ridiculous traditions for human weddings? Find out if they are still in the underworld so I may torture them," Killian gave an order.

If he had it his way, he would just place a ring on Amelia’s finger and announce her as his wife. All of the getting dressed and greeting guests were a pain in the ass which was why he went straight to his tent to sleep.

"You should not think of torturing someone on your wedding day. We should just feed their souls to the hellhounds. I can hear the drums start. The wedding is beginning so it is time for you to leave before the princess starts to walk. Can I turn around now?" Alastor glanced sideways to see if Killian was dressed or not.

"You ask that but still take it upon yourself to look. You are the biggest whore that I know and yet you act like a saint in moments like this. You have walked in on me taking baths in the steam room. Why act shy now?" Killian teased Alastor, patting his back as he walked by Alastor.

"Once was enough to know that I do not wish to see it again," Alastor replied, following behind Killian out of the tent to the area where the wedding would commence.

"I am a little hurt that you do not wish to see my body, Alastor."

Alastor’s lip twitched because of Killian’s need to tease him. If Killian would not shut up then this wedding might quickly turn out to be a funeral. "Killian, you should shut up before others assume you have an interest in men."

"How absurd. How could I lust after a man when there is a beautiful woman waiting for me?" Killian asked.
