1ST PLACE / GOLD WINNER WEBNOVEL'S WEREWOLF WRITING COMPETITION 2022 "You are my mate…" Leland said with a hoarse voice. "Don't you know what I am doing?" He looked at her with a twinkle in his eyes, and right then and there, Sophie thought she could understand him. She could feel his overflowing emotions. Was this what they meant by the mate bond? She could feel so much desire engulfing Leland and she just knew what he wanted. He wanted her. He wanted to ravage her body and mark her with his love bites, he wanted her to scream his name over, and over, and over again. He wanted to pound her and make love to her like there was no tomorrow. The man climbed on the bed and kissed her again. He peppered her with kisses from her cheeks, to her lips, then he moved to her collarbone. Soon, she was moaning softly because of the stimulation. The sounds that escape her lips sounded so sexy in his ears and turned him on so badly. If he didn't have better self-control, Leland would have already ripped their clothes apart and immediately enter her. However, he held back and tried to stay gentle. This was only their first night together as real husband and wife. Tonight, he would finally be able to give her so much pleasure that she would want him in her bed every night. The sex they had the last time was an obligation. It was dry and he only did the bare minimum. This time though… he would ravage her body and make love to her in ways that only his luna deserved. His stamina was top notch and he could satisfy her all night long. ___________________ BLURB: The King, or the Alpha?

Since there was nothing else to talk about, they all left the room. Max and his friends were exhausted after the trip where they ran as fast as they could to reach Lievstad. They all fell asleep as soon as they reached the guests' quarters.
Sophie went to her room and told her children that Leland was fine and that they would go home to the manor the next day. She asked the children to prepare.
When Luciel and Jan asked why didn't they wait for Leland to pick them up, Sophie explained to them that they had been staying as guests in the royal palace for too long and she felt bad about bothering the king for much longer.
The boys found it difficult to understand because Nicholas was their father and it shouldn't be a problem if they bothered him for however long as they needed. However, they didn't argue because they could see their mother's expression was looking distraught.
