Chapter Twenty Six

“I can’t remember the last time I was this nervous,” Ryan gulped as he walked down the halls to his rooms. The halls were emptier now, the full moon had passed and the celebrations to commemorate the birth of the royal triplets ended. As Ryan walked, he could hear nothing but the sound of his feet hitting the floor and the wild pounding of his heart.

After his talk with Erica, he had briefly returned to Tobias’ rooms entrusting Chloe’s safety to Sebastian before leaving the estate. His wolf had howled, roared and screamed for him to return to her and after a lifetime of simply following its advice the pain had almost been unbearable. Nothing he had said would calm it, his words only serving to inflame its anger as the distance between he and Chloe had increased. The wolf was furious that he had left their mate surrounded by other males when she was unclaimed. Ryan had explained that he trusted Sebastian with his life and even the life of their mate but the wolf was still unsatisfied. Though it had pained Ryan to do so, he valiantly ignored the wolf’s pleas from that point on.

He had spent the entire night alone in the cave where he had taken Chloe for the claiming, deciding that it would be better for her to have time alone. A new day meant a fresh start; clean from the massive mistakes he had made the previous day. Despite the time he had given himself to prepare he was anxious. His palms were damp with sweat, his mind was frantic and his heart was racing within his chest. I wasn’t this nervous when Sebastian and I told mother that the greenhouse had burned down. Compared to how I’m feeling now, I was calm when I fought my first war. What’s wrong with me? The answer came instantly. This is Chloe, my mate, my future, my life. If I mess this up then I won’t have anything left. “So I had better get it right,” he stated decisively, turning the door handle. The door refused to open and Ryan smiled. He had asked Sebastian to take care of Chloe and it was clear that he had. No one but his family had keys to enter his rooms and none of them would think to harm her.

He shifted the objects in his arms, reached for the key, unlocked the door and walked into the room. Moving silently into the bedroom where Chloe’s scent was strongest, he felt his heart twist at the sight of her laying against the sheets. She’s like an angel, he decided, creeping closer to her. Her bright blonde hair fanned out against the pillow like a halo, her skin was aglow with life and beneath closed eyelids; he knew ethereal violet eyes lay hidden. My own personal angel, he breathed. And I might have lost her. The thought staggered him, his chest constricted and for a few moments it was impossible to breath.
