Kellen's POV:
I woke up to my phone blaring in my ear; I tiredly wiped the sleep from my face, letting out a yawn, and sat up, pushing Betty's naked body off of me. She stirred and rolled over onto her side but didn't wake up. I grabbed my phone and looked at the caller ID.
"s**t," I mumbled, flopping back down on the bed. I already knew what kind of day I was in for if he was calling me this early.
Clearing my throat, I answered immediately. "Hello, Sir?"
"Kellen? Geez, it took you long enough. Why are you still sleeping at this hour?"
"No… I was—" his low snarl interrupted me.
"f**k, Kellen, what kind of king doesn’t wake up before his own people?"
I looked at the clock on my wall and rolled my eyes, holding back a grunt. It was a little after 5 a.m. I wouldn't call that wakin
