Chapter 364 - 364 The Purification Ceremony



The spring was split into two equal halves by a two-meter wall made of rocks, but it shared water from the same source. Different colors of algae at the bottom of the spring granted the two halves different colors.

One side was bright green while the other was bright blue.

Ronan and Lucien were required to enter the spring from opposite directions. Ronan went into the bright blue side and Lucien into the bright green side.

Since both parties were men, only priests from the Holy Temple were present to help with the ceremony.

When they disrobed both alpha werewolves though, they had to suck in their breath from shock.

Apart from the scratch marks and bruises that spread all over their bodies, the glaring mark on their napes spoke volumes about what the couple had been doing in the days that led to their wedding.

As understanding as the High Priest must be after years of handling Alpha weddings, he gave them ruthless instructions.

Ronan and Lucien were told to waddle through the cold water back and forth three times before they were allowed to get out at the other end.

.....

If personal shame was not enough to keep their hands away from each other, hopefully the cold water was.

Aware of their insolent behavior, both men complied without uttering even a word of objection.

That didn’t mean that they did not talk to each other at all. Or better said, Ronan did not try to talk to Lucien at all.

‘Lucien...’

‘...’

‘Luciennnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn...’

‘...’

‘LULU!!!’

‘WHAT!!!’

‘Oh, I thought that you fell asleep.’

Ronan’s giggling sound via Mind Link made Lucien want to jump over the wall and pounce at him.

‘For Goddess’ sake, Ronan, reflect on your impure behavior and purify your mind!’ Lucien snapped at his mate.

‘My mind has been purified by my love and adoration for you,’ the unrepentant Alpha said in response.

‘...’

What a bunch of nonsense!

If anything, the so-called love and adoration only prompted Ronan to be more sex-crazed than ever.

‘Lulu, the water is so cold... Brrrrr...!!!’

Lucien rolled with his eyes.

Good. Cold water was what Ronan needed to overcome his horniness.

‘Hey, Lulu.’

‘Hmm?’

‘I love you so much.’

‘Then drink less,’ Lucien chastised him. ‘I can’t believe that you went out on a drinking spree while I was not around.’

‘Hehehe...’

They were only silent for five minutes before Ronan called again.

‘Hey, Lulu...’

Lucien sighed.

‘Ronan, quit beating around the bush. What do you want to say?’

On his side of the spring, Ronan stooped lower and submerged half of his face inside the water.

‘Um...’

‘You want to talk about Kinnon, don’t you?’

‘...’

Ronan’s silence was practically a confirmation.

He hoped that Lucien would read his mind and give him the answer to his questions.

Whether Lucien was able to read his mind or not was subject to debate, but he also did not mind relieving the Alpha of his mental anguish.

At last, Ronan’s curiosity won over his pride and he said something.

‘Do you mind if I ask what... I mean... Never mind...’

Ronan chickened out in the middle, proverbially running away with his tail between his legs.

Lucien rolled with his eyes.

A sigh escaped his lips before he decided to stop torturing Ronan further.

‘I said my goodbye to Kinnon. I thought it was proper before I officially marry into your pack.’

‘... Oh.’

‘What were you thinking? That I planned to run away with him after I agree to marry you?’

A splashing sound from Ronan’s side of the spring revealed that the Alpha dove into the cold water despite complaining about being cold.

‘Were you jealous?’

‘...’

Ronan hoped that Lucien would drop the question, but the latter held on to it like an eagle who just buried its claws into its defenseless prey.

‘Ronan, are you planning to drown yourself?’

‘... No.’

Another splashing sound was heard and the Alpha burst through the surface.

‘Lulu, I can’t help it. I will always be jealous whenever you spend time with anyone.’

Lucien chuckled.

‘Really?’

‘Yeah. Even more so with Kinnon, who you once planned to marry.’

‘Heh, I can say the same about Lillian Woodland.’

‘Lulu, I never loved her and I never planned to marry her.’

‘Oh really. Then what about that night during the Moon Banquet when you kissed her in front of everyone to see and your father announced your impending marriage?’

Ronan gulped.

Apparently, once they decided to go through the skeletons in their closet, there were a lot of inexplicable bones that Ronan had to account for.

‘Lulu, he did it without my permission. I would never...!!!’

Lucien scoffed.

‘Were you jealous?’

The petty Alpha grabbed onto Lucien’s jealousy like a drowning wolf on a protruding root by the edge of the river.

According to Ronan’s logic, if Lucien was jealous of the other people that Ronan spent time with, then Ronan had the right to be jealous of the other people that Lucien spent time with.

Fair was fair, right?

Unfortunately, his Luna was a lot more reasonable than he was.

‘I guess I was upset. Then again I had no reason to forbid you from having relations with other people. We were not together, after all.’

‘...’

‘...’

The Alpha roared in his heart.

Overcome with frustration, he ended up blurting it out loud for all the priests and the High Priest to hear.

“No, Lulu, please!!! Please just be jealous!!! I need you to be jealous! Being jealous is fine! I am jealous too!!!”

.....

“...”

“...”

“You idiot,” Lucien said in a low voice.

As a punishment, both men were told to go back and forth three more times.

This time, they decided to shut up and just go through it with full focus.

By the end of it, their bodies were completely numb from the cold.

Three days passed quickly.

At last, their wedding day arrived.
