The Untamed: Game of Hearts - Chapter 163

Inside Raine’s private residence, Boris was waiting for Lyne to arrive from work when Draki joined him.

“Hmm… I envy you, Draki… You haven’t met your mate yet, so you’re not going through the struggles I’m currently having. I honestly don’t know whether or not to feel happy that Lyne agreed to marry me after killing Danos. It would be nice if she agreed because she likes me, but I guess it’s far too early to expect something like that,” Boris mumbled with a sigh petted Draki by the head. He looked at the bracelet he was wearing and added, “You’re lucky, huh… not to have this thing on you…”

“Eh, don’t worry. You’ll be free from that bracelet soon enough. Once the Mirage Trial ends, we’ll be attacking the Convel Society right after on the same day,” Mia reassured him as she sat beside Draki. “Who knows? Maybe Lyne might decide to remove that bracelet even earlier before that. It really seems that you’re rapidly gaining Lyne’s trust more than she anticipated. Coffee?”

Boris kept his silence, signaling to the newcomer that he didn’t want the offer.

“Suit yourself then,” she shrugged. “So, you guys can really talk and understand wolves? How about other animals?”

“Just wolves. They are a werewolf’s best friend, after all,” Boris answered.

“Ah, like how dogs are man’s best friend, except that we can’t actually understand or talk to them,” Mia snorted as she handed the coffee to Boris anyway. Unlike Levi, she was already comfortable around their guest-slash-captive.

“Why do you always drink coffee? Caffeine isn’t good to human’s body,” Boris scolded like an older brother.

“Is it also not good for werewolves?” Mia countered with a grin.

“We have better bodies and immunities than humans, so caffeine is nothing,” Boris snorted before letting out a small sigh. “Ugh… I’m missing that little cupid.”

“I know, right? Aire talks beyond her age sometimes. I bet she already gave you a lot of tips and advice. Right now, she’s probably playing cupid between Boss and Tyrone,” Mia chuckled.

“Do you know when they’re coming back?” Boris inquired.

“Not sure… It depends on the situation. Anyway, I’m sure Lyne is arriving right about now,” Mia teased, looking at the wall clock. Lyne and Levi would usually arrive at around past two in the afternoon, or maybe an hour beyond that.

“Yeah, she’s here. I can smell her already,” Boris seconded.

“Geez, you creatures and your sniffing tendencies… Anyway, I’ll be going now. I wouldn’t dare witness any bickering today…” Mia scoffed as she quickly stood up, calling Draki to come with her.

Boris chuckled. Mia was like a little sister that he can get easily comfortable with. She was an easy person to get along and have a comfortable conversation with.

Soon enough, Levi and Lyne entered the premises. At the sight of her, Boris instantly flashed a broad smile at Lyne. Levi simply shook his head and just casually greeted Boris before quickly walking towards the control room.

“How’s work?” Boris asked Lyne.

“Tiring,” Lyne mumbled as she sat beside him. “Have you seen the plans?”

Lyne closed her eyes and placed her head on the headrest. She actually wanted to go directly to her room and get a bit of rest, but since Boris was already there, she might as well discuss business with him at an open area like this instead of his room.

“Yeah, Mia mentioned to me that we’ll attack right after the Mirage Trial had ended,” Boris recalled while closely staring at Lyne. She had such an angelic face, and Boris was glad that the wolf in him had very good taste in choosing a mate.

“I see. Make sure that you will not disclose any information about this to Tyrone. Boss doesn’t want to involve him in this operation,” Lyne informed him just as she remembered. “As soon as the Mirage Trial is over, Tyrone won’t have any access to the Moon Clan. He will be dismissed…”

Boris frowned, “You mean, he’ll be out? But aren’t they mates? Those two belong to each other! Your Boss is his mate.”

Lyne opened her eyes and turned to him, “That doesn’t mean that the Boss considers him as her mate. You see, things are complicated, and please don’t inquire more about it since it’s not your life to ponder over.” She then tersely continued, “The Boss has her reasons why she needed Tyrone out of her life…”

“That’s harsh…” Boris sympathetically mumbled. All of a sudden, he now felt bad for Tyrone. “But I guess I’m fortunate that you needed me in your life?” he muttered next.

Lyne only answered him with a sigh. She then flinched when she suddenly felt Boris holding her hands.

“What are you doing?!”

“Holding your hands. You should get used to the skinship already since you’re already mine,” Boris nonchalantly mumbled, making Lyne’s eyebrow arched as she glared daggers at him.

“Hey, aren’t you being too greedy? Our agreement was to bring me Danos’s head first!” Lyne sternly reminded as she tried to pull her hand away from Boris. The latter didn’t budge, however. Instead, he even pulled her hand to his lips so he could kiss it.

‘This man!’ Lyne mentally screamed, terrified at the weird feeling she was having with that simple act of his lips touching her skin.

“I’m confident that I’ll be able to kill Danos, so I don’t see the point of holding back myself from getting close to you,” Boris declared. “Besides, you’ll be mine soon. If the Mirage Trial ended this week, the attack would follow shortly. Also, I don’t like it if you flinch away from me every time, so it’s better that you get used to me touching you.”

Ignoring the way Lyne was reacting, he then looked at her directly and mumbled, “I can feel it… How your body is reacting. I can even hear the loud beating of your heart. That means I have an effect on you. Right, Lyne? You like it when I’m near and touching you like this. You can feel it too right? The desire growing in your body. I can’t wait to make you mine… Make you scream my name…”

Lyne’s eyes widened in disbelief. Gathering her resolve, she abruptly pulled her hands away from him and stood up from the couch, leaving Boris alone in his lonesome. She didn’t know why, but she felt as if she had cut off her tongue at that moment. Her face burned red in embarrassment as she walked away. She was affected by his bold words, and she didn’t like how her body reacted abnormally!

Pondering on his words, however, Boris sounded… correct? She had wondered what was wrong with her ever since that day… Was it because of the kiss? Her first kiss? Or maybe she was simply starting to accept him, thinking that no one could help her exact her revenge anymore except for Boris? He was her only option as of now and based on her research, Boris was the only capable Alpha who could even kill Danos.

Meanwhile, Boris had a wide grin as he watched Lyne’s retreating back, “She didn’t deny it.”
