Elena straightened her back as she tried to mask her flushed cheeks by keeping a straight face. She folded her hands under her chest and said, "I left something in here and I wanted to get it."
King Killian smirked, definitely not buying the excuse. He had been on the other side of the hallway as he had just returned from the kitchen. He was surprised and amused to see his little wife sneaking into his room like a thief. She looked cute though.
Killian moved closer to Elena, his seductive eyes pinning her down. "Okay princess, tell me what you're looking for?"
"Uhm. T-the." Elena suddenly could not form words. The proximity between them made her breathless. Shut! She was angry, she shouldn't feel this way! Was it the mate bond?
King Killian took another step forward, bowing his head to Elena's level. He raised a brow, his eyes glinting with amusement. "Do you not know what you're here for?"
