Chương 72: Sounding Desperate?

He hated her but his want for her overpowered. For the last three days, he had tried everything under his power to keep his distance from Emma. He had left her at Upper North Jupan, according to Maeve's advice. The three days without her made him need her all the more. 

He had driven every rogue that was around the grounds of Jupan so that the area was free from them. No, he was not doing it for Emma. He was doing it to keep Jupan safe. Once during his hunt, he chanced upon a werewolf rogue couple during their fierce encounter of sex and he found himself looking at them from a distance. They were rogues and he had to kill them, but he couldn't. That instant, he traced back to the room where Emma was sleeping, lusting after her. He stroked her cheeks and murmured in fae language. "Ne mogu da tebe Kaersta." Can't stay away from you, dear.
