(Woohoooo!!! We made it to chapter 400, ya'll. I'm so happy you made it to this chapter with me. Let's keep up this effort and don't forget the congratulatory gifts, my lovely readers. I'll be looking forward to it.)
I got up from the bed and walked out into the main hall. My eyes fell on Noah. My poor Wolf King. He looked so pathetic, leaning against a pillar, being the very last one in the marking schedule.
He'd spent two weeks watching the others walk around with their glowing marks and their smug faces, acting as a caretaker for the babies, and he looked like he was at his breaking point.
Hungry. The word echoed in my mind again, and so I didn't even think. I just pounced on him.
"Arinya! Whoa!" Noah yelped as I wrapped my legs around his waist and buried my face in his neck. "What are you doing? Fenric just finished with you, right? You need to sleep!"
"I don't want to sleep," I growled, and I meant it. I felt this insane, bottomless hunger. "I want you. Right now."
