After the incident a while ago. Luke brought me here to our room.
.
We didn't dare to say a word and just stared at each other.
.
He sighs, finally breaking the silence.
.
"I know you have a lot of questions in your head right now. You can ask me anything" he said as his gaze never leave mine.
.
"I-i honestly don't know what to say," I told him.
.
"It's okay, just ask me anything whenever you're ready"
.
I release a very deep sigh before speaking.
.
"Luke, what was that? What are you? And... and why did you kill that wolf?" I asked him.
.
He took a deep breath as if he was struggling to speak."Baby, I am a werewolf. We are all a werewolf. I kill that bastard 'cause he disobey my rules and he tried to harm you" his jaw is clenching while saying the last words.
.
"You mean, everyone who lives here is not human like you? Even Tito Lucian and the maids?" I was shocked and he nodded. I gasped for air. I can't believe it.
.
"Yes, they are my pack. Tomorrow I will introduce you to them as my mate and the future queen of this kingdom" he said.
.
I didn't know what to say, I just gaped because of what he said. "What... if you have children, will they become wolves too?" I asked him.
.
He sadly sigh that's why my brows furrowed a little.
"I can't bear a child," he said and I gasped.
.
"You're barren?!" I asked loudly and he frowned before shaking his head.
"No! I'm not! It's just that... You are a mortal. You can't bear my child 'cause we're not the same" I was confused by what he said.
.
"Baby, I can't have a child because you're a mortal and you won't carry a child in your womb no matter how many times we do it" he explained so I understood him.
.
But... He said he won't have children because I'm a mortal and we can't breed.
.
So he can still have a child with another woman as long as he is of the same race? My face suddenly became sad at the thought...
.
Luke came to me and was a little surprised when he saw that I was looking at him with a glare.
.
"What did I do wrong?" He asked me, swallowing hard.
.
"You can still have children with other women as long as they are of the same race as you," I asked him and walked away.
.
"Baby, only you can carry my child and no other woman"
.
"Well, you said I can't have children with you!" I shouted at him. "No, I don't care if we have a child or not, as long as I'm with you, it's fine with me" he came closer to me and I snorted.
.
"But you won't have an heir" he was stunned but eventually smiled and hugged me
.
"Baby, that's not a problem. I have a little brother who can give me a successor." I was surprised by what he said. He have a brother?
.
"You have a brother?"
.
"Yeah, but he's not here. He's only 9."
.
"Eh? Where is he? Why is he not here?"
.
"He's with my mom" he answered shortly and I didn't ask anymore because he didn't seem to want to talk about it. Even though I was curious as to why his mother and brother were not here, I did not inquire further.
.
"Baby, are you afraid of me now?" He asked softly.
.
"Why should I be afraid of you?"
"You know... You see me in my beast form... You didn't even want me to touch you earlier" I shook my head at him.
"No, it's just that I was surprised earlier and that's why I panicked. I didn't feel scared for some reason, I can't explain. When I saw you earlier as a wolf I was nervous but I wasn't scared, even if I wanted to, that's not what I felt." I told him honestly.
.
"That's because of our bond. You didn't feel afraid 'cause your heart recognize me." He explained and I nodded. That's why my heart was beating so fast while the black wolf was looking at me.
.
"Luke"
.
"Hmm?"
.
"Will the people, I mean the wolves, accept me here? Even if I'm just a lowly human?" He hugged me tighter when I said that.
.
"Whether they like it or not, they don't have a choice 'cause you're my mate and their future queen"
.

After Luke and I talked, we are now here in his office.
.
He is currently signing papers. While I was busy with the food that Karina brought.
.
I also looked at him from time to time.
.
"Luke"
.
"Hmm?"
.
"Don't you guys need marriage to be a couple?" I asked him.
.
"Nope, that's not necessary as long as I've marked you, I'll be your husband and you are my wife. There's no need for marriage." I nodded at what he said.
.
"What kind of mark is that, Luke?"
.
"I have to mark you with my fang and do the ritual so that you will be bound to me forever."
.
"What kind of ritual is that Luke?"
"Baby, it's not the right time for you to know. Don't worry 'cause you will know it soon" he smiled at me so I smiled too.
.
"But I have a question Luke"
.
"Hmm? What is it?" He drank the coffee that was prepared for him. I watched as he took the glass until he drank while I was talking.
.
"Shouldn't we do the honeymoon? Aime say when she talked to me last time that it is fun and pleasurable. What is that honeymoon by the way?" He blew out the coffee he was drinking so I was surprised.
.
"Luke, are you okay?"
.
He coughed even more before answering me. "Yeah, I'm okay" he answered while coughing.
.
I approached him and caressed his back. "Why don't you take it slow when you drink it, look what happened, you choked. Why did you spit out the coffee? Does it taste bad?" I asked as I continued to stroke his back.
.
"No. The coffee tastes good, don't worry... Baby, you're so innocent" he said shaking his head.
.
"Is that a bad thing?"
.
"No, no. It's not. I like you being that way. You're so adorable."
.
We talked for almost an hour and I also teased him with questions but he just laughed at me and answered the rest...
.
Luke... You're making my heart beat faster every time I saw, talked, feel, and am near you...
