enough rooms, so please, Kaden…” she trailed off, her eyes meeting his. He knew she wasn’t asking him to share a bed with her and that probably was what caused the wave of agony and anger to take hold of his body. Jaden surely wouldn’t have to sleep in a room separated from her.
“Don’t ask that of me knowing he’ll be in bed with you and I won’t,” he mumbled, surprising them both with his words. For whatever reason they had settled on never mentioning this thing between them again, but he didn’t want to lie about it any longer, at least not when it was only them.
“Oh, so it’ll be much better when you go home alone, realizing that the room across the hall is empty? Okay, fine, I won’t ask you to be one of the first things I’ll see at dusk. I won’t ask you to be here just a little longer so I can know that you didn’t suddenly stop hating me. Fine, I won’t try to make you feel welcome anymore. Go and talk to Jaden and then, you know where the door is. Don’t expect me to tell you bye.” She walked away from him, but then spun around another time. “I didn’t exactly sign up for this, Kaden, and believe me when I say, I hoped it would come to pass, not because I hate the fact that Jaden is not all that’s occupying my mind, but because you used to be closest to me. I always could trust you with everything, and now, when it comes to be important, you drop off the face of the earth. I hoped it would come to pass so you wouldn’t hurt anymore when thinking of me and maybe, just maybe, considered me worthy enough to grace me with your presence. If you think your twin is stupid, you obviously don’t know him as well as you think, because he isn’t. He can guess something is off, but I have the feeling he is giving me room to address it when I feel good about it. Sucks for him that this will never happen, because I can’t hurt him one bit. Everything he did for me in the last couple of months, trying to show that he deserves me, means the world to me.”
“He treated you like a fucking dick,” Kaden snapped ever so quietly, knowing she could still hear him. She was perfect now, her senses well balanced and far above average.
“Oh, it seems to be a treatment both of you perfected,” she cried, then she stormed out of the foyer and Kaden stayed back. If he’d follow her now, he was likely going to press her against a freaking wall and kiss the ever-loving shit out of her. It was something he definitely wouldn’t be going for when Jaden was around.
“Kaden, what the hell are you doing?” He groaned, looking at the little courtier who just came out of the kitchen, joining him in the foyer.
“Don’t even ask me that, Hurricane,” he growled softly, knowing very well that he was throwing off a dangerous vibe. He didn’t mean to, but his feelings were getting the best of him.
The female paled visibly and it gave Kaden a grim satisfaction. She was just caught in the crossfire, but something had to give. “What did you call me?” she asked, her voice shaking.
“You heard me. I know, Cany. It’s my job to know. You are with the Queen, one of two people I’d give my life for. I needed to know who you are, even if Jaden didn’t care. He always was a better soldier, following orders and taking everything for granted.”
“I’m not going to hurt her, Kaden,” she whispered and he pressed his lips together, breathing deeply a few times. He forced his face to relax and then gave her a smile.
“I know, girl. I still needed to point it out, but I won’t tell anyone your secret until it’s relevant. I have to be honest though, this is a trust – relationship with her. Maybe you should consider telling Maya. Trust her enough to stand by you regardless,” he remarked and she closed her eyes. “Oh, and Cany?” He waited until her hazel eyes met his again. “I’d like to stay for the day. Maya invited me and even though I told her I wouldn’t, she made some valid points.” He
