Chapter 51. Fear of the Unknown

“The earlier I start my journey, the faster I will get back to Lurds,” Edward told Xavier whom he had woken up in the early hours of the morning.

“If anyone had told me, we will have this conversation about you ever finding a maiden and getting married. I wouldn’t have believed them,” Xavier spoke with a grin on his face as they walked towards the study. They would spend the next hours to come deliberating on the proceeding of the wedding at Lurds before Edward would leave.

Edward had put in motion the plan for the wedding. The last task he had to do was meet the dressmaker for the robes the king and queen would wear at their wedding. He had done all he needed to do and was ready to return to Lurds, where his mate and lover waited for him.

He missed her. He missed her laughter, her smile, her naughtiness, her wildness. He missed the feel of her skin when pressed against his. He missed the touch of her hands on all parts of him. Her soft kisses fondled and caresses.
