Predatory Marriage (Web Novel)

Chapter 225 – Little Wolf (1)

Translator: Atlas / Editor: Regan

That little wolf was much stronger than she had expected. As badly wounded as it was, it had fought so valiantly to protect her, and that thought distressed her.

She should have protected it. She should have done something.

It had broken her heart to watch the baby wolf fighting against those chains, its small body streaming blood, fighting with its broken teeth and torn claws. If it had been possible, she would have gone back to that place. She didnt want to leave the little wolf alone.

But she could not go back.

Leah came back to reality with a jolt.

“……”

Slowly, her eyes opened. She could feel tears sliding down her cheeks. The emotions of her dream had followed her. She blinked as her tears tapered off, and when her vision cleared, she found herself looking up into golden eyes.

Bright golden eyes the color of sand and sun. Eyes that were just the same as the eyes of the baby wolf in her dream.

Ishakan lay on his side beside her with his arms wrapped around her. It seemed as if he had been in that position for a long time. Even when he saw her awaken, he said nothing. His eyes were fixed on her, unblinking, and in an increasingly awkward silence, Leah gently looked away.

The room was dark. It looked like a bedroom, but she couldnt even tell if it was day or night; every window was covered with thick curtains.

Suddenly, there was a soft kiss on her forehead. Ishakan stroked her hair, and then lifted her hand to tenderly kiss each finger. It sent such a tingle through her, it took a moment to realize that there was nothing on her ring finger. The engagement ring was gone.

She didnt ask where. For now she would forget all of it: the suspicious intruders, the knights that imprisoned her in the villa, her ladies-in-waiting, and everything else. She would think only of the man in front of her.
