Rylan chewed on his lips, his emotions getting out of his control. How did things arrive at this point?
He felt guilty. It was as though he was betraying his vow and the leniency given to them by the current emperor, the prince's father.
The moment he wanted to close his eyes and fall asleep, the dream seemed to haunt him once more.
The way the prince's naked body stood before him, those intimidating but also gentle eyes gazing at him. His almost incomprehensible words whispering in Rylan's ears...
Rylan gasped awake, his chest moving relentlessly as though all the air had left his lungs. Sweat began to pool in his forehead and on his back.
Suddenly, he felt so hot. His body seemed to be burning, his mind getting foggy. Rylan's breath was also hot, his pheromones becoming chaotic.
His brows furrowed, and he could not think straight.
