The Lycan King's Secret Baby (Freya and Jaxon)

Chapter 21

The next morning, Kiara woke up before m for the first time in a very long time. What actually woke me up was the constant jumping on the bed that she did. I tried to tune her out but it seemed like she was hell bent on waking me up because when I finally creaked an eye open, she squealed and smiled widely at me.

“Can I help you little miss?” I drawled sarcastically and she practically beamed from ear to ear as she flopped on

pressed a soft ki*s to her hair and I started to rise from the bed when I noticed something in the middle of the room. It was a small box, barely bigger than my arm and there was no note on it.

“Is that yours?” I asked and she turned to where I was looking then shook her head. “Do you know who put it there?”

“I was told not to tell,” she began unsurely and when I raised a brow in her direction she sighed. “Daddy put it there for you. He told me not to touch it.”

Hearing that Jax was the one who put it there had my insides squirming in ways I could not explain. I carefully disentangled myself from Kiara and made my way over to the little box. I picked it up and tried to guess what was inside by the weight but I couldn’t figure it out. I finally opened it and in it were a bunch of keys. I turned them over trying to figure out what they were for but I had no idea.

Finally, I turned to Kiara with a smile. “Why don’t we get ready for breakfast?”

While I got her ready, I couldn’t help but think back on the bunch of keys. Once she was dressed, I went back to my room to get freshened up. The flowers by the windowsill had been replaced and

this time there were peonies there. I took a discreet sniff of it because peonies were my favorite flower and I smiled to myself and placed it on

my vanity.

Once I was dressed, I made my way back to Kiara’s room and we both went to the dining room. Jaxon wasn’t there so we ate alone and by the time we were finishing, Aiden walked in. I knew he didn’t plan to stay because he just whispered something into the ears of a servant and he was about to leave so I called out to him. He

turned to me with a raised brow but he walked over.

“Is everything okay?” he asked and I nodded then brought out the bunch of keys I had kept in my pocket. When he saw it amusement lit up in his eyes. “Jaxon is one sneaky bastard.”

“What are they? asked but he didn’t respond. “Aiden you know what it is. Why won’t you just tell me?”

“I want to see your face when you find out,” he began then he cringed. “Actually, I don’t. I’ve heard you two enough times to last me a lifetime. You’re not as quiet as you think.”

I flushed pink as I understood the innuendo behind his words. He was most likely the one Jaxon was taking to on the phone a few days ago.

“Just tell me,” I implored but he shook his head.

“Ask Jaxon,” he started to walk away and when he got to the door, he stopped and threw over his shoulder. “You’ll thank me later.”

I wanted to throw my shoe at his head but at the last minute, I took a deep breath and turned to my daughter who was staring at me in confusion. I took her over to her room and waited for Nadia to arrive. The moment she did, I was out of there and making my way over to Jaxon’s office. To my shock however, the office was locked and I was suddenly confused on where to go.

I knew where his room was but I didn’t want to go there because the memories I had there were not pleasant. Regardless, I knew that it was possibly my only chance at getting an answer to the keys so I made my

I exhaled sharply as I knocked on it. I waited for a full minute and just when I had given up hope of him answering, he pulled open the doors. Jaxon stood there half naked with nothing but a pair of sweatpants: hanging low on his hips. His entire torso was gleaming with a light sheen of sweat and I could clearly make out the veins streaking over his skin. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

“You seem to be busy,” I managed out in a choked whisper. “I think I’ll come back later.”

I turned to leave but he grabbed my upper arm and kept me in place. “I always have time for you.”

He stepped to the side and I hesitated before I walked into the room. He shut the door behind me and the click sounded so final. The room was exactly like the last time I saw it and I swallowed deeply as I tried to avoid looking at the bed where I had my first time. It felt so special at the time but then it was ruined by his actions the next day.

“You sent me keys,” I decided to go straight to the point as I took them out of my pocket and laid them on the table. “Tell me what they’re for.”

“They’re keys to the palace,” he said simply and my brows rose impossibly high. “The Queen should have them in case of emergencies.”

“But I’m not queen,” I said simply and he smiled wryly. I took a step back from him and shook my head. “I’m not

queen so why did you give them to me?”

“You’re going to be Queen,” he said simply. “I know we didn’t have the best start so why don’t we start over and do this the right way? I might not feel the bond but it makes sense and you’re my only chance at breaking the

curse.”

“Do you want me because I’m your mate or because you want to break your curse?”

“Both,” he said honestly and I couldn’t even be hurt because I was sure I was going to do the same thing if I was in his shoes.

I took another step back but I didn’t realize how far back I had gone until my back hit the table. I looked around for a quick escape but before I could even process it, Jaxon had closed the distance between us and he ran his hands down my cheek softly. It was so soft and caring that I couldn’t help but lean closer into him.

“I can’t do this,” I began slowly. “We have a daughter. We can’t just start over like nothing happened.

He pushed away my hair from my neck and leaned down to ki*s it softly. I gasped and my hands flew up to hist shoulders. Whether it was to push him away or pull him closer, I didn’t know.

“Yes we can,” he mumbled into my neck. “All

mine.”

you need to do is say yes and we will. I’ll mark you and make your

As he spoke, he peppered the length of my neck with open mo*thed ki*ses. He sucked and bit the skin then lapped over it with his tongue to soothe the ache. It was maddening and I could feel myself getting lost in the frenzy but I needed to think and give him an answer.

“You can’t be mean to me anymore,” I began desperately trying to cling to my sanity. “You can’t keep pushing me away and treating me like- oh.”

One of his hands slipped into the waistband of my jeans and he stroked me softly. His finger moved over my slit gently teasing but never actually slipping in. I tried to rock my hips to get some friction but his free hand kept me in place.

“Please, Jaxon,” I begged. “I can’t think, I need-”

Before I could finish my sentence, all his movements stopped. I let out a groan of frustration and I tried to rock my hips again but he kept me immobile.

“If you want to tak then we can talk,” he said simply as he pulled his hands out of my shorts. “Tell me what you want Freya. If you want no strings attached sex then I’ll give that to you but if you want us to be together then

you have to tell me.”

“I’m scared,” I admitted. “It’s like I don’t know with you. Today you’re ales and tomorrow you are so cruel.”

“I will never purposely treat you badly,” he leaned forward and pecked my lips once. “Just give us a chance. One

more chance is all I ask for.”

There was sincerity in his gaze and I let out a sigh. This was all I wanted and I would be a fool to give it up.

“Okay,” I said with a sigh. “You have one more chance,”
