Chapter 243: A two-way rescue...

Lucius POV

Noah's office was as thick as tension when I entered. The Lycan King's face was etched with worry and fatigue.

"Talk of the devil," Kurtis chuckled. "It's him your majesty… he's best at saving Selene,".

My gaze turned from Noah to Kurtis who was sitting at one corner of the office and my heart sank. I hadn't noticed his presence. A part of me was happy to see him, while a part of me, couldn't deal with the part that liked seeing him.

The guilt of what happened between us still gnawed at me and I had convinced myself that I would stay away from him I was just confused, that it was the alcohol that night but here I was at Moon Whisper at his beck and call.

"Kurtis!" I said curtly and turned to Noah. Could he see what I felt inside? I wondered.
