Chapter 143
Jack
I must say, I did not expect any of this.
I had another shitty day, being a royal prince. The expectations, the stress, to make my day worse, I had to play nice with that stupid corpse-looking duke.
I can still see his thin smile. Still hear the way he implied Ciel's position was "unstable."
Unmarked.
Unsecured.
Vulnerable.
I hate this. I hate that unmarked an omega is seen as fair game to these fucking bastards.
I hate that I know what they did to Ciel and I cannot do anything about it.
A choking sound snaps me out of my thoughts.
Immediately, I push away, Nolan.
"What the hell?" I ask as he's coughing, going to my knees to help him pat his back.
"I'm sorry, I thought I could," he starts, but I cut him off.
"Thought you could what? Choke on my cock?" I snap, my voice sharper than I intend. "Fuck, Nolan, are you okay?"
He nods, his face flushed and his eyes watering, but he manages a small smile. "I'm fine. Just... got a little too enthusiastic."
