Merek looked around the office before he sat down. "You could hold me as your prisoner and crush my nation. You could have murdered Zane and crushed me. You could have told me that you hate me and gotten me out of your hair, yet you do not. You do not even kill my soldiers. Tell me how you feel, and no deflections. I need to know, my inner wolf needs to know, please Eve." Merek said in an smooth voice. He needed to know how to carry on from this point. All he wanted was to hear her true thoughts.<br/><br/>-----<br/>Zane arose to his feet with the help of Rose. "If you know anything about me then you would know I do things folks disapprove of a lot." Zane said with a smug grin. "Besides, your alpha did this to me while I was in the middle of being surrounded and attacked already. She can consider this an well timed thank you." Zane thought about the times Evence and himself spent with Merek when has was only a prince. He was proud of both King Merek and "Queen" Evence. He was still upset he would not be battle ready for a few days. He wanted his rematch with Boa, one of the rare betas capable of keeping up with him.
