The Mind-Reading Mate Why Is the Lycan King So Obsessed With Me novel Chapter 301

Chapter 301: The King Who Can’t Resist His Queen

What if something happened to her, and it wasn’t just Leofric’s test?

"I don’t think you need to worry about that anymore, husband." Primrose pulled the towel aside just enough to see Edmund’s face. "If no one could save me ... then I think I could save myself."

The first time she used her mind-control ability, it might have seemed like a coincidence. But when it happened a second, a third, and even more times afterward, Primrose could no longer call it an accident.

"Sir Leofric said that I already have a way to control my ability, even if I’m not an expert yet," Primrose said calmly. "I still need more time to practice, but ... I know I’ll be fine."

Leofric even told her that she could use her ability whenever she felt a strong emotion in her heart, and since Primrose was naturally dramatic, nurturing strong emotions wasn’t exactly a difficult thing for her.

"Besides, the palace’s security is already very strong." Primrose continued when Edmund stayed silent. "If Sir Leofric hadn’t helped that intruder sneak inside, then I don’t think he would’ve had the chance to get in at all."

Based on what the mysterious man said in his mind, it seemed clear that Leofric had opened the way for him. That was proof enough that the palace’s defenses weren’t easy to break without betrayal from within.

"But I think I should still strengthen the palace defense," Edmund finally said. "If there are traitors inside, then this palace won’t ever be safe. Maybe ... I really should assign you more personal guards."

Primrose’s hand moved from his half-dried hair to his face. Droplets of water rolled down his skin, making it softer and smoother, and she couldn’t help but caress him a little longer.

"Lady Solene wants to be my personal guard." Primrose locked her gaze on Edmund’s blue eyes. "Don’t you think she’s capable enough to protect me?"

Edmund swallowed hard as Primrose leaned closer, closing the last bit of distance between them. "Lady Solene is more than capable of protecting you, but ... it’s been a long time since she officially served in the military."

Even though Edmund knew Solene had fought in Moonshadow, he still doubted whether she could match the royal guards’ combat skills now.

"That’s why Lady Solene wants to take the royal guard’s test again." Primrose shifted from standing to sitting on Edmund’s lap. "Would you mind giving her the chance to return to the military?"

Edmund’s hand, which had been on her waist, slid down to her thigh. His fingers slipped beneath her nightgown, touching her bare skin directly.

"I can give her a chance." Edmund sounded absentminded, as if he was simply repeating her words rather than answering.

His distracted behavior made Primrose chuckle softly.

It seemed her husband really had missed her that much. She wrapped her arms around his neck and leaned forward until their lips almost touched. "There’s one more thing ... Sir Callen also wants to take the royal guard’s test. Could you ask Sir Leofric to train him? Maybe ... you can even tell Sir Leofric that he’ll be forgiven if he can make Sir Callen pass the test."

"Mhm." Edmund agreed without a second thought, not even bothering to weigh the idea.

But really, who could blame him? What kind of man could think straight when his wife was sitting on his lap, close enough for him to breathe in her sweet scent?

Maybe some men could, but Edmund certainly wasn’t one of them.

"Edmund." Primrose tilted her head and lowered her gaze to his lips. "Do you want me to kiss you?"

"Yes ...." His other hand slid behind her back, pulling her even closer until their lips were only a breath apart. "Please."

Primrose no longer had any intention of teasing him further. She finally gave him gentle kisses, something that could take her husband’s mind off all the bad things that had happened to them that day.

Honestly, Primrose regretted that they could only ever have a deep conversation for no longer than ten minutes before it turned into something sexual.

Maybe it was Edmund’s fault for being so easily tempted, or maybe it was her fault for thirsting over him too much.
