Ileus: The Dark Prince,Chapter 582 - Training (1) - Read free novels online

Kaizan chewed the sausage that Olivia had fed him. He could feel that Olivia had stiffened in his lap at the mention of Murtagh. He was tempted to ask her about him, but then he stopped himself. When she would trust him well enough, she would talk about her Alpha to him. He understood the loyalty that went within the packs and he honored her decision to not speak about her Alpha. Bernice's question put him in a fix, but he said, "I am not the one who authorizes meetings with Murtagh. He is a political prisoner and it is only the royalty who allows meeting with him."

"Oh!" Bernice said with a sad face as her lips curved down. "I was so hoping to meet him. I wanted to carry something back to my pack and carrying my Alpha's memories would have been so good. But…" she drawled and lazily dug her fork in the vegetables.

Kaizan didn't reply to her. He nudged Olivia to give him more food. She bit her lip and gave him a spoonful of mushroom cream soup.

"Is there a way you can ask the king?" Bernice interrupted their cuddly-cuddly behavior, feeling every bit peeved.

"I will see," he said in haste and dismissed her.

Rest of the dinner, Bernice ate watching the two of them cuddling each other. It was like a kick in her stomach, but she watched them and even gave smiles only to fuel her zeal for throwing Olivia out of the house. And the only way now was to act like a typical white lotus. She was going to have to hold Olivia in a way that he didn't mark her.

"I was thinking that you should continue your warrior training, Olivia," said Kaizan as the two got up and walked back to their bedchamber.

"Really?" said Olivia with a glint in her eyes. She had been denied the training in her own home after Luke's death. Her parents had become too overprotective about her. She loved the usual training routines with other wolves. But from a long time, all she was doing was watching them from afar. When she had met Kaizan for the first time in the hollow of the oak, he threw the gauntlet at her and she had picked it up.

"Yes," he said, placing his hand at the small of her back. "I will assign someone to train you. How much have you learnt?"

Olivia was so happy that she practically bounced all the way to their bedchamber, chirpily telling him what all she knew. And Kaizan—he was hardy listening to her. His mind was in the gutters. All he wanted was to rip the sheet and pin her beneath him, trembling and begging for more.

"So, I am going to start with it tomorrow?" she asked, turning to look at him when he kicked the door close.

He spaced out for a moment wondering what she was asking about because he wasn't even thinking. How could a mate be so enticing that his world had turned upside down? He just longed to touch her, feel her and wedge his rock-hard cock in her sheath. She was sex goddess and he wanted to worship her in every way. "Yes!" he breathed. And that was enough of warrior training talk, he said to himself after remembering the conversation. He scooped her up in his arms. She squealed as he carried her to his bed.

After an hour of grinding himself in her, tasting her, kissing, nibbling and sucking her, when he slumped beside her, totally sweat-slicked, he felt like going to the temple to offer the gods his sincere thanks. He turned his head to look at his mate and found her sleeping blissfully. Her eyes moved behind her eyelids and he wondered if she was dreaming about him. Life was… fantastic.

Next day, Kaizan asked Finn to assign two of his best warriors to train Olivia. Though he could have sent her to the training house where all the warriors practiced, he didn't want his wife to enter into a testosterone charged atmosphere and he certainly didn't want his men to see her curvy body swinging as she moved. Gods, she was so voluptuous and beautiful. Did she even realize her assets?

The morning sunlight filtered through the window and he was happy to note that it wasn't snowing. Sometime during the night, he had pulled her over his chest and was able to sleep with her sweet weight on his body. Gently he made her sleep on the bed beside him and she moaned reluctantly, instantly missing his warmth. He chuckled and sighed that he had to leave her because of his duties. He was surely going to ask the king to give him a few days off to spend time in honeymoon. Just as he was tucking her in the furs, Ileus appeared in the bedroom. He growled and threw another fur over naked Olivia to ensure that she wasn't exposed. He sat down in front of her and looked at Ileus menacingly. "Do you have a death wish?" he snarled. "Get out!" The man was getting on his nerves.

Looking extremely disheveled and haggard, Ileus' eyes were red. He hadn't slept and had too much to drink. "Where will I go?" he said as he landed on the couch on his back and placed his arm over his eyes. "I miss her so badly, it's like a gaping hole in my heart."

Kaizan rolled his eyes. Ileus had started with his drama. "Why don't you go to Vilinski? And would you mind getting out?" He was getting irritated as hell. Right now, he was thinking of getting Olivia privately tutored for training and now Ileus cropped up with no barrier on his emotions. So much danger!

Ileus turned his face to gaze Kaizan. He peeped to his side and saw the fur moving. "Is that Olivia? Is she not wearing anything?"

"Shut up!" Kaizan roared. "Get out!"

But Ileus was very cold to his reactions. "Tonight, you are coming with me to the boxing ring in level three, and that's it!"

"What? Are you fucking mad?" Kaizan was on the edge of his wits. "When is Anastasia coming back?"

"Next week," came Ileus' sad whimper.

Kaizan shook his head. He had to bear Ileus' tantrums till next week? Didn't Ileus see that he was a married man now? Even he had a mate? "I can't—"

"Well, then that's it!" Ileus said as he got up with some difficulty. "We are going." He snapped his fingers and the next instant Kaizan disappeared. He heard a long, murderous roar and realized he had conjured the wrong spell. With a sigh, he looked at the furs that were now being kicked and he snapped his fingers again. Kaizan appeared back. He lunged at Ileus but by that time Ileus had burst into shadows and smoke and Kaizan landed on the couch, cursing and grunting.

As instructed by Kaizan, Olivia went to a small building with Finn in the estate for her training. The building had arched glasses and thick stone walls. Various types of weapons were displayed. Inside, she found two heavy-built soldiers, in black tunics and slacks practicing with their swords.. And with them was… Bernice in tunic and slacks, watching them intently.
