Chapter 210 The Pier

• ELIAS'S
• Something always happened to me when I was near Zola. At this point, my actions were becoming uncontrollable. This primal feeling inside of me pushes itself forward, overcoming any rational thoughts I tried to have while around her. Just being in the general vicinity brought forward a wild side of me that I couldn't explain. These last few weeks the need has been stronger. The best way to explain it was that it felt like a magnetic force drawing me in. They say that's what a mate bond feels like, but wouldn't it have started when she turned of age? Not now. Not years later. Right?
• A bright light randomly lit the room, gathering my attention. I followed it from the ceiling directly to its source, my phone. I looked at the screen, a text message displayed on the notification bar with Shanti's name attached. She was another thing. Sometimes I can't get enough of her, I crave her. Then other times I don't have a feeling in the world for her other than being her King. Shanti and I were a hard topic to explain. It was supposed to be temporary and fun. But by keeping her around like I am, I will be forced to take her as my mate. What was it with these two women, and why do they randomly drive me wild? The strange thing about it was, I never wanted them at the same time. It was either I craved Shanti or I desired Zola. Which leads me to believe that I was the problem. I sighed before picking up my phone and clicking the message.
