I Bought the exiled king (by Natalie Winter) novel Chapter 87

Valencia

I was not sure what time I actually fell asleep because he had wrecked my body in the most beautiful way possible.

Killian was my first relationship, if I could even call it that. No, scratch that.

He was my first physical relationship.

My experience with alpha men treating me like shit had left me scarred as a young girl.

I had not let anybody come close to me, much less touch me. I had been scared of becoming just a showpiece in someone’s life, a woman meant to bow her head and do what is asked without asking a question.

And then I devoted all my time to the Bureau. That could be why I easily fell for the easygoing charm and smile of Killian because I felt that void inside of

1. me.

But now, as I spent more time with him, I could slowly see how he had not been faking all of it. Even if he could have been cruel and ruthless like his siblings, he wasn’t.

He actively chose to be a nice guy if he could afford it.

And being a good guy in such a evil society was like painting a target on his back.

And despite the hidden truths, I still craved him. Deep down, I somehow felt he was someone I could feel secure with.

No matter what the situation, the amount of anger or frustration inside of me, I had never stopped feeling that.

His tongue, his touch, just about everything of him sated me like nothing else did. I had heard stories of fated mates falling head over heels for each o and becoming each other’s sole reason of existence.

Sometimes I would wonder if that was just a fairytale because the Burueau had no shortage of cases that made me feel it was all an illusion.

Yet some corner of me wanted to experience that warmth and love.

I was not sure if calling what I felt for Killian was love. Nope, it was just a sense of security and…friendship?

But then friends weren’t supposed to make each other moan.

I hated him for his half lies yet my body craved him. It was so confusing I only stared at him for a while as my eyes fluttered shut.

The last thing I heard was his warning and willed my brain to not let me down tomorrow morning.

I wasn’t sure I would be able to even walk tomorrow, let alone run, but I was going to show up no matter what.

Because I wanted many more such nights with him.

I slept blissfully as he pulled the sheets over me and tucked me like a baby. I was too exhausted and fell asleep almost instantly.

Thankfully, I got a few hours of sleep before I was awoken by the harsh banging on the door.

“My lady, wake up!!”

I heard Mary’s voice as she banged her hands on the door.

“Come in” I groaned in sleep, turning from one side to the other.

Chapter 87

“Get up! You are going to be late for the training today!!”

She pulled the sheets off me and meant to haul me up but almost screeched in horror and stepped back.

Alarmed, my eyes flew open and I looked at her in shock.

“Did you see a spider of something? Why are you screaming?”

Her cheeks flamed red as she did not look at me but only pointed a trembling finger in my direction.

Confused, I looked down at myself and realized that I was naked.

I did pull up the sheets to cover myself out of habit but got out of the bed while muttering,

“Oh come on, don’t be so prude. You have seen me naked plenty of times.”

I said and dashed forward to the bathroom to quickly brush my teeth.

Her shy voice was barely a whisper as she said. “There are marks…on your body”

And that is when I splashed water on my face.

“Yeah, I do have the mark of the Blessed…” I began but as the water trickled down my eyes and I saw my reflection in the mirror, I realized she was referring to the several bite marks on my body.

Shit.

I had no memory of them, but my brain did a good job of flooding me with the memories of last night.

Killian had bit into my flesh numerous times and left me bite marks on my body.

I realized that I had accidentally let Mary on a secret. It was not as if I had any issues with her knowing I had sex but the moments between me and kildea were just for us.

Just mine.

And I had stupidly just let her in on something that I wanted to visit later and wonder about when I was alone sometime later.

But there was nothing I could do about it now. She knew we were two adults sharing a room so hopefully she wouldn’t be as scandalized as I assumed

after her shock died down.

She didn’t reply and I didn’t bother explaining anything to her because I had to get on the ground in time. So I was out of the bathroom, put on my training clothes and was running towards the ground in no time.

+ did catch her staring at me with her cheeks still bright red but only smiled as she pretended to do the bed.

And my legs reminded me of how much they didnt want to run today. Pretty much, my body didnt want to do anything except lay on the bed and sleep. all day.

I felt sore and peachy, but I knew Killian would give me a tough time if I gave him that reason so I was just going to push through and then maybe just sit

with Sarah and relax a little.

Hopefully, I would be able to convince him to let me go sooner to the temple today because I was falling behind on the scroll work because I would get so exhausted with training that sometimes I would just sit beside Sarah and catch some sleep while sitting on the bench and laying my head on the desk to

rest.

With that thought in mind, I somehow made it to the ground where Killian was already waiting for me.

He was back to being the strict trainer and didn’t spare me a glance, nor did he ask if I had gotten some sleep.
