The Abandoned Lycan Queen 110 Chapter 110 Deacon's POV No one could possibly imagine how hard I tried to hide my fast beating heart from the excitement I felt the moment I locked eyes with Elena and found her looking atwith so much admiration.
I woke up early and did my best to look like the version ofshe hadn't seen yet, the prince. And to say that I was satisfied with how she reacted was beyond words. Needless to say, I could proudly state that the tI spent making sure I look my best was all worth it.
She tried to play it cool, and believewhen I say that she wasn't the only one because it's taking every bit of my control not to stride toward her and pull her into my arms.
Especially when she's out of her military attire and back to being the princess that she was, she's wearing a strapless, deep blue, flowy dress that fell about an inch or two below her knee paired with a white long sleeve blazer where the body part only lands until her breast line. Was it called a crop top or something? Whatever it was called, it complemented her so much that it made her even more beautiful, especially with her hair tied in a low ponytail and placed on the side of her neck with its wavy strands softly on her collarbone down to the top of her dress.
She looked like a princess... No, she looks like a Queen. My Queen.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtTo be honest, I was just as momentarily taken aback as she was. Unfortunately for her, I managed to pull myself back together before her and teased her first, givingthe opportunity to see her cheeks flash with a crimson red blush.
"Have a seat first." She gestured to the chair in the living room.
I looked around and found the place great with its homey and peaceful vibe. The windows were wide open, bringing in fresh air, and the bloomed fresh flowers decorating the vase on the table let this amazing floral scent fill the room.
Right after I sat down, Elena gracefully sat on the chair opposite to mine, radiating with the elegance of a true princess. A thin layer of tension surrounded us, but it wasn't from hostility but by the overwhelming control we put ourselves in.
"Have srefreshments first." As if feeling the tension themselves, one of the Omegas whom I usually see with Elena cforward with a bright smile on her face as she placed a pitcher of orange juice on the table and served each of us a glass.
I grabbed the glass and let the cold crystal glass set on my fingers before I raised it up on my lips, eyes lingering on Elena. Taking a slow sip, I watch her as she tries to act casually but involuntarily takes a huge gulp, which is more than necessary.
Seeing the reaction I'm getting from her, I couldn't help but feel an excitement in my heart. Trying to hide it, I let out a smile while taking a sip and kept my face blank as soon as I let my glass down.
"Thank you, Zara." So, that's her name.
After Zara, Elena's Omega, refilled our glasses, she took a couple of steps back but didn't leave the room.
"So, why are you here?" she asked, staring atas she awaited an answer, but I was so mesmerised by her appearance that I was momentarily stunned. And it's not helping that I'm secretly feeling anxious about what I really chere for.
1/2 Chapter 110 My lips had parted, and I was ready to speak when we heard footsteps and someone cleared their throat, catching, our attention.
By the doorway, a man cin. He bowed his head in greeting with respect before standing beside Zara.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmI narrowed my eyes and observed him. By his stance and demeanor, I'd say he was high ranking, which was confirmed when Zara bowed to him and greeted him as well "What is it, Jayden?" Elena asked.
The man, Jayden, shifted uncomfortably in his place before he took a deep breath and uttered with conviction," Since both of you are unmarried, it may be inappropriate for both of you to be left alone together..." Glancing at each of us, he cautiously continued, "Especially with all the current issues around. Hence, I greatly advise that Zara and I remain on the premises during the meeting."
I thought Elena would be angered by Jayden's presumptions, but shem merely crossed her legs and smirked slightly. "Afraid we'll cause a scandal and anger the king?" Standing straight, Jayden didn't back down. "Just ensuring propriety, Princess." After giving Elena anda firm nod, he stepped back with Zara. "We'll be behind the door if you need anything' With that, they left, but not far enough that we'd be technically alone. Just far enough to give us the illusion that we were.
Seeing his authority and his rational thinking, there wasn't any doubt that he was her Beta.
Turning to face Elena, I voiced out my opinion. "I see you got a strict Beta."
"And I'm lucky to have him. He keep things here in line, making almost everything forsail smoothly! Pride glinted in her eyes, and I m couldn't be more grateful that she had great people around her. People who would stay loyal to her. After hearing from Tyson that they protected her from Courtney without a hint of fear, I already knew that they were good subordinates.
"I assyou're here to discuss military matters?" She cut the silence as soon as Jayden and Zara's figures left out of sight.
Clearing my throat, I stared deep into.
her eyes, rested my hands on the table with my clasped hands, and leaned forward as I uttered in a deep and firm voice, "No, I'm here for something personal."
