The Love of a Lycan

Nutdrouk knew that these two fathers and sons had almost the same traits.

Both stubborn and fond of threatening someone else to get what they wanted, only, the part that irritated him the most was the fact that he can't fight either of them.

No, even Raine and Aurora have the same tendencies and the two women could become very terrible if their wishes were not fulfilled.

It seemed Donovan had bad influence to their surroundings.

Every time the Donovans visited him, it was certain that Nutdrouk would get endless headaches and this really annoyed him, but in any case, they gave him a lot of money.

So it can be said that the relationship between the two was a kind of love- hate relationship.

"I am not going to give you what you ask for until I get the right price and the money," Nutdrouk said in a voice that sounded very determined, but actually it took all his willpower to refuse Kayden's request.

"Are you seriously going to do this to me?" asked Kayden, now his black eyes stared at Nutdrouk fiercely, as if he was ready to pounce on the dwarf. It's really annoying when someone refused your request right in front of your crush or, in Kayden's case… his mate. It was really annoying and Nutdrouk did that to him.

"Y…yes…" Nutdrouk replied unsure of what he was saying. Well, Kayden was as scary as Torak.

"You will see how I destroy your small business once I get my position as an Alpha," Kayden said in a sinister voice. "You know what my problem is and why I ran away from my pack and my father?"

Of course news of Kayden ran away from the pack had already spread, only because Torak didn't take action could his naughty son still roam free.

But, if Kayden came back and took on his responsibilities as an Alpha, of course the problem would be solved in an instant.

"I can destroy you just this easily." Kayden then snapped his fingers and that's not an exaggeration because that's how easy it was for Kayden to destroy Nutdrouk and his small business.

The dwarf looked very angry. He thought he'd been immune to the Donovans' threats, but Kayden had really pissed him off.

It's just that, apart from obeying the orders of this future alpha, what else can he do? Because it was impossible for him to fight it.

He then stomped his short legs and cast an annoyed look at the girl standing not far from Kayden, as if she had such a big mistake against him.

"Careful with your eyes," Kayden warned him.

"I'll put this on your father's bill. You have to remind him to pay for it, or Raine or whoever. I want my money!" Nutdrouk grumbled. He didn't care where Kayden got the money, he just wanted all of this annoying brat's requests to be paid off. They were a very rich family, why did Kayden have to complicate matters by running away?

"You take it easy," Kayden said, patting Nutdrouk on the back, as if they were old, close friends.

Then, Nutdrouk walked with furious steps, took Kayden's wish list which Tiana was holding roughly and walked away to collect the items they needed on this ridiculous escape.

=================

"Is… all of this, all right?" Tiana asked with a disbelieving face. She still wasn't sure what she was going through.

They got a car, a large box of money and also some equipment such as clothes, pants and other things, all of which were ready in the car they were driving now.

"How did you… how did you get all this?" Tiana looked at Kayden who was driving beside her with disbelieving eyes. "Are you… a rich man?" she felt stupid to say that.

At this point, Tiana tried to remember the names of the rich people in this city. Or maybe Kayden wasn't even from this town…

Meanwhile, hearing Tiana's statement, of course it was very funny for Kayden and this made the man laugh.

"Sorry," he said, trying to be polite, but Tiana shook her head and didn't look the least bit offended by what Kayden had done.

"No, no need to apologize, just answer my question," she insisted.

"Well, you can say that..." Kayden said confidently, he really enjoyed the admiring gaze of the girl next to him, not only that, Tiana even asked a few questions after that and looked amazed after hearing Kayden's answer.

While their conversation seemed to never run out of topic, the sky outside was getting darker and the lights from tall buildings could be seen.

"You mean you own several companies? But under a different name because you guys are shifters and have to cover up your identity?" Tiana wanted to be sure about this and saw Kayden nod. "Then, which are your company buildings in this city?"

Tiana then waved her hand at the buildings in front of them that were so tall and beautiful, especially at night like this. They exude luxury as well as extraordinary charm. f𝔯ee𝘸𝘦𝚋𝒏oѵ𝐞l.c𝒐𝓂

"Hm… all," Kayden replied calmly. He didn't mean to brag about this, but indeed they were in the center of town, where the entire building there belonged to his family, but of course under a different name.

"No way..." Tiana couldn't believe it, she looked at Kayden, waiting for the man to laugh and say that he was just joking, but unfortunately, Kayden didn't do that. He only glanced at Tiana and focused himself on the road in front of him. "Are you serious?" Tiana asked.

"I am serious," Kayden reassured his mate.

Tiana was speechless for a moment then she glanced at the box in her lap which was filled with money. "You're not afraid to give me this much money?" Tiana asked, gazing the box.

And once again Kayden laughed happily, as if what Tiana just said was like the funniest joke he had ever heard.

"I can give you more than that," Kayden said in a serious tone, although a sweet smile still adorned his lips.

Tiana felt her heart beat faster when she heard Kayden's statement and couldn't understand how she could meet this man and what made Kayden want to do all this for her.

Since the only way to get the answer was to ask, and that's what Tiana did.

"What made you do all this for me?" Tiana asked with a serious face.

=================

Tiana woke up when it was midnight and when she looked at the driver's seat, she panicked a little when she saw that Kayden wasn't there.

But then she saw the man was inside a minimarket, seemed to have bought something and now they were at a gas station.

And after seeing that Kayden was really there, Tiana started to feel relieved again. She thought that she was abandoned, but apparently not...

And when she looked at the clock on the dashboard of the car, it was already midnight, which meant that Kayden had been driving this car for ten hours non- stop.

Tiana felt guilty for causing so much trouble to the man, but only, Kayden was so stubborn and forced to drive the car, not giving Tiana a chance to take turns.

This reminded Tiana of the answer he gave a few hours ago, before she fell asleep very soundly.

'Because you are my mate.'

It was a simple word, with such an extraordinary meaning, that Kayden had told her to answer his curiosity.

Tiana didn't know that the term actually existed in the world of shifters, but she had heard it from her grandfather.

Yes, actually, it could be said that Tiana knew about the shifters' lives from her grandfather who was always telling her stories about these astral beings and how they had lived among humans decades ago.

His grandfather believed that even now these astral beings still live among humans, only that they went back into hiding because humans were annoying creatures.

Tiana often laughed when she heard this, but not now. She knew that humans were annoying creatures and now she agreed with it.

Especially humans like Oliver, he was the kind of human that must be exterminated and should not be allowed to roam around in this society.

"Oh, did I wake you up?" Kayden asked when he got into the car and found Tiana already awake, the girl was looking at him with a sleepy face and slightly messy hair.

"No, I just woke up." Tiana then yawned at the end of her explanation. Seeing that, Kayden ruffled the girl's hair and made Tiana slightly dodge.

"Sorry, I'm not used to it," said Tiana in a low voice, but Kayden didn't seem to mind at all, he then handed a large plastic bag of food to Tiana's lap.

"I don't know what you like, so I bought what I thought was good," he said as he ran the car out of the gas station.

Tiana knew that she didn't need to be this defensive towards Kayden and the fact that this near-perfect man loved her unconditionally because of the mate bond that existed between them, made Tiana feel much calmer, but of course, she still didn't expect this to be the case.

"Are you sure you want to take me all the way to my parents' house?" Tiana asked while eating the sandwich she found.

"Of course," Kayden replied confidently.

They should be able to get there two days from now if they had to stay overnight, but something happened on the second day of their trip.
