29. Losing Control
KIAN
Sleep hadn’t been great, and although I did fall asleep in the end, I didn’t want to be here. Thanatos was hammering against the wall I had put up, and the risk of him taking over was consuming me.

From the moment I got into bed I had told Sage I was tired and not to talk, she had obliged and I was glad for it.
Now my eyes snapped open just as the sun was rising, and I frowned down at Sage. I eased out of her hold slowly and got up. Thanatos needed Morgana, or more like I needed her to calm him down.
My heart skipped a beat when I noticed the open door.
There were only three people in my wing… 1
Morgana.
Fuck.
I got up quickly and left the room swiftly, walking through the hall down to my room. Opening the door, I looked at the empty bed. A book lay open on top of the messy sheets. Her scent was strong, but for a second I panicked.
I stepped into the room, my heart racing when I saw her. She was sitting on the floor leaning against the window; her legs bent under her, her arm wrapped around her waist. Her breasts rose and fell, and those plump lips of hers were parted slightly. There was a sadness to her and her hold seemed vulnerable.
She saw… Fuck, she saw… I clenched my jaw, feeling Thanatos’ growl of rage echo through my head from behind his wall.
I knew he was furious that I had hurt her.
I crouched down before her, my own fucking emotions a mess. How was someone so delicate so strong? How much would she take before I ended up breaking her?
Her mind was in turmoil, I could sense that much. I reached over, stopping inches from her, almost as if one touch might shatter her.
What was I doing? What did I want to do?
Thanatos’ struggle was growing, and I fucking hoped he calmed the fuck down before the Alpha meeting
I wrapped my arms around her shoulders, knowing that when she was asleep, nothing could wake her, she was a deep sleeper. I slipped my other hand under her thighs, standing up
slowly as not to disturb her and carried her to the bed. I tried not to focus on the sparks that rushed through me, sparks that soothed both Thanatos and me… I missed her….
I placed her on the bed, but just then, her eyes snapped open and she pushed me away with such force that I staggered back.
She got off the bed as if it burned her, glaring coldly at me.
“Did I give you permission to touch me?” She hissed.
As much as I wanted to remind her that she belonged to me, I don’t think I had that right at this moment. I felt guilty already
“You were on the fucking floor.”
wered
“And is that any of your concern? From here on out, I want a separate room, or the cells will d 0.” She said coldly.
I frowned
“You are not leaving this room.”
She scoffed, crossing her arm as she walked over to me and stared into my eyes.
“Oh I am, bring your woman here where she belongs. Don’t test me.” She hissed.
Fuck, if I thought she was going to be upset… I was way fucking wrong… She wasn’t upset or jealous, she was fucking pissed.
“You are not leaving this room.” I said coldly, my eyes flashing “That’s my fucking order.”
Her lips curled in a cold smirk.
“Oh yeah? And what’s going to stop me?” She challenged.
I clenched my jaw, I was fucking struggling to contain my anger and Thanatos right now. Was she really doing this?
“Don’t push me unless you want to be bound again.” I growled.
“Oh? Do you really think you can do as you wish? I’m done with your games, Kian, either accept what I ask for or I assure you I have plenty of ways to get what I want!” She snapped.
“Morgana! Do no- and I fucking mean, do not push me.” I growled.
Thanatos was clawing at the wall, and I wasn’t sure how long I’d be able to hold him back.
She raised an eyebrow.
“I will do what I want. You may be a king, but I am also a princess, and I am not less than you. Nor do I fear you. You may think you’re the king, but to me, you are nothing.”
Her words cut deeper than anything ever had in life. None of Cain’s mockery growing up… None of the insults that I was not good enough… The fact I had to prove myself against
someone six years my senior from the day I could fucking walk… nothing. But her single sentence cut fucking deep. I swallowed hard, trying to focus on her.
But the beautiful woman before me held so much hatred in her eyes that it fucking stung, but what was worse, it was my own fucking doing.
She smirked now walking towards me, and for a moment I didn’t understand why. That was until Sage appeared in the doorway.
“Kian…” She trailed off, seeing Morgana approaching me.
Morgana smiled, and I knew for a fact that she was up to no fucking good.
Na
“Finally… you’re here. Look, I’m asking your Alpha to let me either move to a different room or even the cells, but he’s refusing.” Morgana said with a mocking pout, looking at Sage. “I wonder… What hold do I have on him that he can’t simply let me out of his sight?”
Fuck, she was messing things up. I narrowed my eyes. What was she even insinuating?
“Morgana.” I warned.
She closed the gap between us, locking her arms around my neck. My heart fucking raced at her touch, and I wasn’t able to stop myself from looking at her lips. She licked them slowly and my eyes flashed.
“Aww, will you look at that… Your woman is right here, yet you can’t even behave in her presence.” Morgana whispered seductively.
She pressed her body against mine, and I felt myself throb.
Fuckkk
“Morgana…” I growled, gripping her waist, trying to stop her from fucking turning me on even more. But when she pressed herself fully against me, I couldn’t even hold her away. I fucking loved it. The sparks, the illicit desire to fuck her senseless… “Don’t.” I breathed dangerously.
“Are you an enchantress or something?!” Sage spat, walking into the room.
“I don‘t know…” Morgana hummed. She leaned over, her nose brushing mine, and the urge to
kiss her was strong. “Want to kiss me, Kian?”
Her voice was soft, seductive, and I fucking wanted to do a lot more than kiss her. But I was not going to do this with her right now.
My eyes flashed, my emotions a storm; her words, that look in her eyes, her scent…
Before I could even reply, her lips met mine in a sensual kiss, sending sizzling sparks through me. I throbbed hard, but before I could even react or kiss her back, she pulled away, smirking coldly.
“See… he can’t resist. So, either you tell him to move me elsewhere, or deal with this and a lot more.” She said coldly to Sage.
My heart was thundering, struggling with Thanatos, whose anger was only growing with the mess she had made of my emotions. She had a fucking hold over me and she knew it… Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.
“How dare you…” Sage said icily, glaring at Morgana.
My eyes flashed.
“Sage!” I growled.
No one was allowed to speak to her like that!
“Kian she”
“I said enough!” I hissed.
Morgana simply smirked, running her fingers through her silky black hair. She now whirled around and took hold of Sage’s chin.
“Seems like he has a favourite. You should really feel hurt.” She taunted, batting those lashes of hers. “Tell me, is there anything special about my touch?”
“There-” Sage was cut off when Morgana’s lips touched hers. A gasp left Sage, her cheeks flushing as MY mate kissed her.
My own eyes flew open, jealousy and anger ripped through me like a fucking tidal wave, and any control I had left on Thanatos was gone. A fucking million emotions coursed through me at the sight of her kissing someone else other than me, and I ripped her away from Sage, pushing Sage away roughly. “MINE!” Thanatos and I thundered together, glaring at Sage, who flinched.
Fuck…
The final straw of control snapped, and I was thrown to the back of my mind as Thanatos took control
