Chapter 245: 244

It's scary, knowing you could lose someone. The thought of being apart from them, the memories that could possibly haunt you for the rest of your life time. All those little details that you would lose, a piece of your soul, the part of your heart that you would lose. Everything in a relationship is scary and painful, especially when your life's on the line every day, when people look at you and you don't know if they're hiding knives behind their backs. If they would come for you or the one you love, because they know your weakness. 

Kai took the body of the old butler, looking at him and hoping he could reach the doctor before it turned into dust. He needed this, the evidence, something to prove Lun's innocence. He wouldn't be able to bear it if his best friend died. His brother, he would completely lose himself. Lun always thought that nobody cared about him but this nervousness, the cold sweat that dripped from his temples. They could be nothing more than carrying, worrying to lose a person that mattered to you. Xan would be devastated. No matter their differences Kai was aware of the pain, of the inner torture of losing someone. If it happened again, if the crown prince lost his lover then the world would crumble around him. Kai couldn't let that happen.

He reached the royal doctor's room and without even knocking he stormed in, opening the door with his foot. There was a woman there, bright green eyes and brown hair. She wore a pair of golden glasses. At the thump of the door she snapped, her eyes landing on the prince.

"Your highness. Is everything alright?" She asked him as she stood up, leading him to an examination bed she had at her office. 

The youngest prince dropped the lifeless body.

"Please hurry up, before he turns into dust. Can you tell me what he died from? Was it something that we use here or is it from the human world?" The prince asked her and the woman rushed at the butler. She seemed confused but didn't deny or ask anything. As fast as she could she examined the body, seeing his eyes, checking his throat and his limbs.

As she looked at him the body of the man slowly started to disappear, from his legs to the tip of his head gray ash began to spread where he had been laid, leaving nothing behind. Kai looked at the doctor with wide eyes, anticipating to hear her answer. She had a frown on her face, confused.

"What is it? Did you manage to get what killed him?" Kai asked as she took off her glasses, placing them on her desk.

"It's what we call a suicide pill but for supernaturals. It is forbidden in BloodBound so he must have gotten it from the outside world." The doctor explained.

"So you mean he decided to kill himself?" Kai asked her and she nodded. So that meant he hadn't been threatened, he was willingly working with the wolves. That was impossible though, it was almost like an instinct for them to hate each other and weak vampires and werewolves couldn't really fight it most of the time. That could mean only one thing, the butler was not with them but with the ones the werewolves were cooperating. 

A heavy sigh escaped Kai's lips as he realized that the whole situation was becoming more and more troublesome.

"Thank you." He told the doctor and left, not answering her questions about what happened. He dragged his feet for a moment, devastated that his plan had failed.

"Kai!" He heard Philip's voice and raised his head. This man had the ability to always appear when he needed him, he was there, standing before him and the young prince, drowning in a sudden sadness rushed towards him, crushing into his embrace with tears in his eyes.

"Everything is going wrong." Kai cried like a child, feeling Philip's arm wrap around his body. He was strong, he offered him comfort and his scent was so soothing he felt his headache subside. Philip breathed in, caressing Kai's hair.

"It's going to be fine. I am sure you will get to save Lun." Philip reassured him when Kai pushed himself back.

"How are you here?" He asked him. "I thought the queen told everyone to stay inside the meeting room."

"I might have told the queen in front of everyone that I needed to pee." Philip said with an awkward smile. Kai chuckled, his tears a contradiction with that beautiful smile of his and Philip wiped them off, his fingertip slowly touching his cheeks. "Your smile is the most beautiful thing I have ever seen so please don't cry, unless it's from joy." He told him.

"Wish I could. I need to get back, I have to talk to my mother. The man was killed with a suicide pill. Those are banned in BloodBound so it's probably from the outside." The prince explained and Philip nodded.

"I am sure that will save Lun some time." He said.

"Yeah. We can't be seen together." The prince told him. "I don't want to get you involved in this. You just became the Alpha, your reputation…."

"Don't care about that." Philip said and brought him closer, wanting him in his arms for even one more second. "All I care is that you're well so I can finally have you close to me. My reputation...let's just say it's long gone." He joked and Kai smiled. The prince looked around, suspicious and in search of intruding eyes. When he made sure no one was around her grabbed Philip by his shirt and brought him close, kissing him on the lips. 

"I love you." Kai whispered. "Now go back." He told him as he disappeared, probably going to find his mother. 

Philip was left looking at nothing, a faint smile on his face as he remembered the sense of Kai's lips on his.

"I wonder when it will be just us." He mumbled to himself as he walked away. "Probably never. A prince and an Alpha. A vampire and a wolf.. Quite the drama."
