Chapter 220 - 219

The dinner ended on a bitter note and it was obvious no one was having fun. Soran, not really liking the whole situation decided that it was time for him to just go to his room while Lun followed Kai. The youngest prince had just found Philip and did not want to leave him alone just yet so he was forced to be with the rest of the werewolf packs to be with him. 

They had all gathered at the lounge of the guest rooms. A spacious living room like room, with many large windows on the walls, white curtains and beige velvet couches. He hadn't seen that many light colors in a while, always being surrounded by black and dark colors. He had forgotten room like these existed in the palace. 

The packs were mostly talking, drinking some wine that had been delivered to them and conversing about what had happened before. No one seemed to actually want to associate with Alloy's pack, knowing she had caused the wrath of the queen so they just quietly sat amongst themself. When they entered it seemed like her Beta was scolding her but Kai stopped bothering with them. He watched Lun talk with Reina about something so he wasn't worried about him either. 

The young prince took Philip's hand and pulled him away from the many people. There was a small couch, barely fitting two people in the back of the room, kind of hidden from everyone's eyes since they were all on the other side of the room. Kai wished they could just get away, take Philip to his room but they didn't want people to talk more about them, now that their secret was out they had to be careful for different reasons but at least they could be seen in public together. 

"I don't get how she found out about it." Philip said, scratching the back of his head. "I haven't told this to anyone except the closest members of my pack."

"Could it be that there is a spy between you? Someone she sent over to observe you and haven't noticed" Kai asked him, making the werewolf think back on everything that happened after he remembered. An awkward smile appeared on his face as he looked at Kai.

"I was too focused on what I'd do when I saw you that I didn't really notice anything else. You were the only one I was thinking of." Philip told him, making Kai roll his eyes.

"You should pay more attention to your surroundings. You're an Alpha now, many people will be out to get you since you're leading such a big pack." he advised him and Philip took ahold of his right hand, raising it to his face and gently kissing the back of his palm.

"Okay sir, you have more experience in being someone important so I am going to take your advice." Philip joked, making Kai laugh.

"Good. I can offer you lessons if you want." The prince said, his blue eyes playful, a grin on his face as he stared at Philip. He would never get tired of this, he would never be able to simply get away from him. He finally felt like he could breathe, his heart beating loud, a beat that signaled how in love he was with him. He couldn't really believe it yet, that Philip was here, close to him, with him. He looked at his neck, the little tattoo, painted a deep black color, a half moon delicately designed. He touched it gently with his cold fingertips. 

"It's still here." Philip commented and Kai nodded.

"It appeared close to my birthday. You were always there with me and I didn't even know you." 

"Yet you had told me that I had marked you like a cow when I did it." The youngest prince said, a frown on his face.

"I was wrong." the werewolf said with an apologetic smile. 

"You certainly were sir." Kai agreed when a voice called them out, interrupting their peaceful moment.

Kai turned his head, noticing that someone was heading towards them, making all of the werewolves look at them too and he sighed, his blue eyes showing annoyance. He stood up, stopping the man from approaching them any closer. 

"Can I help you?" He asked him, tilting his head to the side. It was that Beta from BloodMoon again, Mark. He didn't seem to want to let it go, what had happened during dinner. He was one of those people that were always wearing an annoying frown, wrinkles forming on their face not from old age but from growing and right now that kind of annoying person believed he could mess with Kai.

"You're making everyone uncomfortable here." Mark told him.

"I am? Because you are the only one that came here to start a fight" Kai said, pointing at himself. 

"The others are just scared of you." He stated and Kai laughed.

"And you are not?" he asked him, raising one of his golden eyebrows.

"You are a vampire, you shouldn't be here with the rest of us. This place is for us to rest. We don't want to be on our toes all the time just because you want to be in this kind of…absurd….relationship." he told them, an expression of disgust on his face. 

"Mark, how about you go back to your back? Your Alpha seems like he wants to kill you." Philip said and stepped forward.

"Of course you would defend this paranoia. He is a vampire, and the son of that crazy bitch to add up to it. Don't you feel ashamed for betraying your kind like this?" the annoying werewolf asked him. Philip was intending to say something but well, Kai loved to argue. He was that kind of person, the one that wouldn't let anything go. He pushed gently Philip back, the werewolf knowing how things were going to go already and took a step forward, almost sticking to the werewolf, his beautiful blue eyes looking at him with a murderous expression. 

"You and I…let's have a chat shall we? Before I fucking kill you, that's it.." Kai said.
