Unveiling Secrets

Chapter Thirteen

Roman's POV

It is morning and I'm currently in the woods, running alongside my mate. We started running some thirty minutes ago and we will soon be done.

I clutch my stomach and bend over with my other hand touching the tree. I breath a bit heavily as try to catch my breath.

"Are you okay Only?" My Ken ask after he changes form back to human and he has put on some shorts.

"Y-yeah." I answer and stand straight after I start breathing a bit better.

He holds my hand and we walk together back home. It isn't that far and in no time, we exit the woods and the pack house is seen in a distance. I don't usually breath that hard after a run but today we added a bit more distance and since I'm not yet used to it, that's why I had problems breathing at the end. But I absolutely love running and I don't mind doing it a bit longer today.

There are a few houses around the main pack house. Since my mate is King, most of his people are in different packs led by Alphas all around the kingdom.  The pack house is big and the beta family lives in it as well. The others houses around the pack house are mostly for the guards who lives here. Some have their families and stay with them here.

My Ken squeezes my hand in his and I look at him to find him looking at me as well.

"Ron wants to talk to you."

"Why?"

"He didn't tell me why but he assured me that it is nothing bad."

I nod at my mate and he looks away, probably linking Ron that I accepted to talk to him and soon enough, Ron walks out the house and run in our direction. We were still not yet to the house and when he approaches us, my Ken squeezes my hand again then kiss my cheek. He drops my hand and nod to Ron then he leaves us there.

"Good morning alpha." Ron greets and I smile.

"Hello." I say and we start walking slowly towards the house.

"You talk to me?" I ask and he nods.

"Yes I wanted to talk to you alpha. I want to thank you for what you did for me and my mate." He explains.

"No worry. I like your mate, he good like you."

"I'm glad you think so while everyone says he's bad. I know he was at some point with the enemy but I can't help it but like him despite it all. I also understand why people don't like him but it still hurts to know just how much my friends hate him." He sighs and I stop and hold his arm halting him.

"You no need worry bout people. Just you and him. Time come and friends like him but now no worries." I assure him and he smiles and give me a nod.

"If you have some time today, he wanted to see you. I know you are busy with a lot of things these days but I just thought I should tell you and maybe when you get some free enough time, you can come and see him."

"Yeah. I free and come. No sure when but I come." I agree and he beams and thanks me.

I smile and he escorts me the rest of the way to the house then he leaves for his duties. I enter the house and a guard escorts me up the stairs. They stay away though but close enough to jump in if I miss a step or something. It was my Ken's idea and now there is always a guard near the stairs who escorts me up or down the stairs. I didn't protest to his decision because I was glad he let me walk on my own.

I open the door to our room and walk in as Ken comes out of the bathroom. He smiles at me and I quickly gather my clothes and walk inside the bathroom. I close the bathroom door and get in the shower.
