Fated To The Cursed Werewolf King

Hazel hesitated as she looked at Caius. She wasn’t sure if he would agree to what she wanted, especially because he was the Werewolf King and had so many responsibilities. He couldn’t just leave everything behind because of her little wishes.

”Forget it...” she muttered.

”No, I want to hear it,” Caius replied, pulling her attention back to him.

”You can’t!”

He raised an eyebrow. ”Why not?”

Hazel sighed and looked around the chamber as though she was searching for the right words. She wasn’t sure how to explain it without sounding childish, but she had always wanted to experience certain things in life. She had read so many romance stories, and sometimes she imagined herself living inside one of them.

”I’ve read a lot of stories, and I just want to experience that kind of lifestyle,” she said with a small chuckle.

Caius blinked in confusion. ”What kind lifestyle?”

Hazel smiled, already getting lost in her imagination. ”I... I want to experience working in a huge company as an ordinary girl. You know, going to work every morning, having colleagues, attending meetings, and dealing with office problems like everyone else.”

She paused, and her smile grew wider.

”Then boom! The CEO falls in love with me, and suddenly everyone becomes jealous of our relationship. Some women will try to get close to him, others will try to make trouble for me, and I’ll have to pretend that nothing is happening because I want to keep our relationship a secret. That kind of risky office romance!”

She even clapped her hands as she imagined it.

Caius remained silent. He was staring at her as though he had just heard something he couldn’t understand. He was the Werewolf King, and she wanted to work in an office as an ordinary employee so they could have a secret romance?

Was this woman serious?

He finally sighed, and Hazel noticed his expression. Her smile slowly disappeared as she realized how strange her request must sound to him.

”Never mind. I knew it wasn’t possible, which is why I wanted to think of something else.” Hazel nodded, then turned toward him with a hopeful expression.

”I just want you want you to chase me properly....but I want to experience that lifestyle”

Caius raised a brow.

Hazel moved her hands as she explained. ”You know, it’s supposed to show how worthy a woman is. You ask me out, take me on dates, buy me flowers, and make an effort to win my heart. Then you propose to me, and I get to say yes after making you wait a little.”

She clapped her hands again, clearly enjoying the thought. ”It’s fun! I know it’s something ordinary people do, but I want to experience it too. I want to know what it feels like to be pursued by the man I love.”

Caius watched her for a moment.

He had never imagined that his mate would ask him for something like this. He had fought countless battles, ruled millions of wolves, and faced enemies who would do anything to see him fall. Yet, he was now sitting in his chamber, listening to a woman explain why she wanted him to take her on dates and propose to her.

It was strange. But when he looked at her excited face, he realized he didn’t want to disappoint her. ”Fine. I’ll do it.”

Hazel froze. She slowly turned her head toward him, wondering if she had heard him correctly. ”You wil do it?”

Her eyes widened.

”Do you know what that will cost you?” she asked quickly. ”You’re the Werewolf King! You can’t just leave your throne and follow me around. You have so many responsibilities, and there are millions of wolves depending on you.”

Caius chuckled at her sudden concern. ”I have seven high-ranking wolves who can handle things in my absence.”

Hazel covered her mouth. ”Really?”

He nodded.

She stared at him for another moment before suddenly throwing her arms around his neck. Her eyes became wet, and she hugged him tightly. ”Thank you! I’ll be very happy!”

Caius smiled and wrapped his arms around her. He could feel how excited she was, and it made him happy to know that something so simple could mean so much to her.

Hazel had spent so much time imagining a life among ordinary humans. She wanted to work in a company, meet new people, experience office romance, and enjoy the kind of things she had only read about in books. She didn’t want everything to be about being the Werewolf King’s mate or living inside a palace.

She wanted to experience life and Caius was willing to give her that.

He gently rubbed her back before speaking.

”But you should know that I won’t be able to fulfil your wish until everything is over.”

Hazel slowly pulled away and looked at him. ”When should we start, then?”

Her excitement was still there, but the moment she remembered what they had to deal with first, her expression changed. The secret chamber, the witches, and the danger surrounding Caius were still waiting for them. She couldn’t pretend those things didn’t matter.

Caius noticed the change in her face and pulled her closer.

”At first, I wouldn’t have cared about anything else as long as you helped me with the chamber,” he admitted. ”I wanted to solve everything as quickly as possible, and I was only thinking about what I needed.”

Hazel looked at him quietly.

”But now...” He paused and gently brushed a strand of hair away from her face. ”Now, I would really appreciate your help. I know I’ve asked a lot from you, and I know I haven’t treated you the way you deserved. I don’t want you to feel that I’m only keeping you close because I need something from you.”

Hazel’s eyes softened.

Caius lowered his head slightly, making sure she was looking at him. ”I want you to be happy too, Hazel. Even if it means doing things I’ve never imagined myself doing.”

She stared at him for a moment before smiling. ”Then you better prepare yourself, Your Majesty.”

Caius raised an eyebrow. ”Hmmmm”

”For everything! You’re going to have to learn how to be a proper boyfriend before you become a proper husband.”

He chuckled.

”And don’t think you can use your royal authority to escape dates. I won’t accept that.”

Caius laughed and pulled her into another hug. Hazel rested her head against his chest, smiling to herself.

She didn’t know when she would finally get to experience the ordinary life she had always imagined, but knowing Caius was willing to give it to her made her heart feel warm.

For once, she wasn’t asking him to be the Werewolf King.

She simply wanted him to be her man. And Caius was finally beginning to understand that.
