Submitting to My Lycan Prince Mate

60 The Tenderness of Louis

Claire's POV

And so, disregarding the presence of the servants in the castle, Louis carried me all the way to the bedroom. Upon entering the bedroom, Louis tossed me onto the soft king-sized bed.

Soon, the rustling sound of clothing could be heard by the bedside.

"Hey, Louis, I think we need to talk, you—"

Louis's voice came from the wardrobe, "Let me finish the most important thing first, Claire."

"What's the most important thing?"

Blushing, I sat up from the comfortable bed, ignoring the soreness in my body.

At that moment, Louis emerged from the wardrobe with a first aid kit in hand, and our eyes met.

"Of course, it's to take care of your wounds, Claire."

Louis raised the first aid kit in his hand, his lips curving into a meaningful smile. "What else did you think it was, hmm?"

"I, I..."

Feeling embarrassed, I averted my gaze from Louis's and said, "How could I guess what you were thinking, my dear Prince Louis?!"

"My lovely little kitten is angry."

Louis sat down beside me with a smile and planted a light kiss on the back of my neck.

"It's my fault, Claire. I wanted to tell you about my schedule, but seeing you sleeping so soundly this morning, I couldn't bear to disturb you."

"I didn't mean to blame you, Louis."

Gazing into Louis's eyes and feeling the endless tenderness in them, my tone softened unconsciously. "I just... I just wish that the first person I see every morning is you."

"Then from now on, I'll make sure your wish comes true, Claire."

Louis cupped my face, planting a kiss on my lips. "But for now, the priority is to take care of your wounds."

I nodded. "Alright, then let the servants in."

"Servants?"

Louis glanced at me and chuckled lightly. "Do you doubt my ability to handle such things, Claire?"

Of course not, you're the prince of the kingdom. I thought to myself.

"I think I can read your expression, Claire."

Louis's smile deepened. "You think just because I'm a prince, I wouldn't handle these little things, hmm?"
