As soon as the carriage door closed, Olivia got up and turned to Kaizan to chide him, but he came after her. "No one comes close to this carriage," he said loudly to anyone who was in the vicinity. The ceiling of the carriage was just enough for both of them to stand and his head almost touched the ceiling. "You thought you could run away, Olivia?" 

"I think we should get in the temple and get over with the ceremony," she said, staring in his warm honey eyes that seemed to rake a nest of butterflies in her chest. 

"Why didn't you sit with me?" he asked. 

"Kaizan, you are being like a child whose candy was stolen," she said with raised eyebrows. 

"My candy was stolen and I have to make sure that it is never stolen again." There was a faint smile on his lips and a soft glint in his eyes. 

"Now you are actually being a little baby," she snapped. 

His stare deepened. She backed up a little as he came forward. He dipped his chin and his eyes fixed on her lips, he said in a deep throaty voice, "The more you try to get away from me mate, the more I will chase you. Or have you forgotten the lesson at the cave where you made me chase you?" He sounded… needy. 

Olivia was angry at him, but the way he spoke, her anger was chased away by the warmth and her face blushed like the roses on her headdress.

He placed his hands on the wall of the carriage and caged her. Before Olivia could protest, his lips were on hers. Every restraint that she thought she was going to put up against him… melted. She moaned in his mouth. Her hand went to his cock that was strained against his breeches. She unbuttoned them and his shaft sprang free. She started stroking it gently and his hips thrust into her hands. When he pulled away, he rested his forehead against hers and said, "I need you." 

Olivia pushed him away slightly. She lowered herself and knelt in front of him. She knew that look. Kaizan watched her raptly and swallowed his saliva when she wrapped her lips around his cock. A groan escaped his mouth as a shudder passed through his body. He would never get enough of his wife. He threaded his finger through her hair and gripped her head. When she was on her knees before him, she looked up at him. As his dark gaze met hers, she closed her mouth over the tip of cock. He broke the stare as he threw his head back as the sudden pleasure his body was filled with. He pushed himself inside her to the hilt and bit back oaths. His cock fitted her mouth just like it fitted her core. 

Olivia ran her lips over the taut skin of his shaft and licked in between the slit. The scent of his arousal filled her nostrils, as he began to thrust inside her. His thighs began to quiver, as she sucked him hard. When she touched his bollocks, deep moans came out of his mouth. She sucked him hard, swirled her tongue faster and faster. His thighs shook all the more when she slipped his cock out of her mouth and then took it once again to the hilt. "Damn woman!" he rasped. "I can't last." 

She sucked him two more times and he spilled his seeds in her mouth. She drank him, tasting the salt in her throat. She continued to suck him till he was drained completely, till he could take no more. Like a winded horse, he slumped and sat in front of her. He gathered her in his arms and rested his chin over her head. 

A moment later when he pulled back to look at her, she asked, "Are you happy now?" 

"Happy? I am ecstatic." 

Somehow, he staggered to his feet and pulled her up with him. He buttoned his breeches and then straightened her dress as she smoothed the wrinkles from his. "Shall we go now?" she asked. He just opened the door of the carriage and when he did that, he found several pairs of eyes looking at him and Olivia. Her cousins. Olivia was… mortified. Her cousins were blinking their eyes and looking at the two of them, shamelessly. The youngest one asked, "What were you two doing inside? Your carriage was shaking and I swear I heard moans. Are you both okay? Is your baby coming out now?" And the other cousins burst into laughter. 

Claire came forward as she circled the girl's shoulders, laughing madly. "The temple is a little far away," she said. "They all think that you were not well and so I just took them out. Now that you are well, we are all going to sit back and go to the temple." 

"What?" Olivia was dumbfounded. Her cousin was the one who had declared that they had reached the temple only so that Kaizan would let his steam out. She bit her lip with a shake of her head. The girls started pouring in once again but this time Kaizan was settled. And Olivia—she made it a point to sit next to him. Who knew that her wolf might start chasing her again? 

The temple was a small but beautiful marble structure. It looked ancient. Some of the pillars and walls and floor had developed cracks. It was in need of renovation. With the way the Whiteclaw pack's economy was going, Kaizan could understand that there weren't enough funds. He made a mental note to help fund the temple for renovation. 

In the temple, the Shaman was ready for more rituals. Not many people were invited for the ceremony, and so it took place quickly. By the time they finished and came out of the temple, Olivia was very tired. She had started retching.

"Hurry up!" Kaizan growled at all her cousins to sit in the carriage. He had stopped her to sit first or else she would be squeezed. At the same time, he was panicking about her health. If it were for him, he would simply shift and carry his mate to home. But he was afraid of her security. 

Olivia smiled weakly at her husband's efforts to stay in control and the way he wanted to take care of her. She smoothed her hair back and turned to face the temple when all of a sudden, her gaze went on a man standing, leaning against a pillar inside the temple premise, right above the stairs. Her eyes widened with surprise. "Lucas!" she murmured. She remembered the conversation Kaizan had with Tasha when they were in the orange groove. Kaizan had ordered Tasha to get Lucas back to the capital. If Lucas was here, then where was Tasha? Was she still hunting for him? Olivia squeezed Kaizan's hand unconsciously. 

"Olivia, are you okay?" he asked, thinking that she was feeling too unwell. His shoulders tensed as panic surged through his body. 

She whipped her head back in his direction, her eyes wide with shock. "I—" 

"What?" Kaizan asked again, checking her from head to toe whether she was alright or not. 

"I just saw Lucas," she said, her voice a mere whisper. 

Kaizan stiffened. "Where?"
