Chapter 3
|| MONICA'S POV ||
King Zion's eyes hardened on me as soon as I talked about the condition. I wanted to play it safe. If King Lucius found out about me, I wanted to return to King Zion's side to fulfill my family's revenge.
King Zion spoke with a growl, looking deep into my eyes,
" You want to be the queen? YOU WANT OUR BOND BACK?"
It hurt me to know that he regarded me as a greedy person. Our bond would have helped me in the war against my enemy but I wasn't going to beg him for our mate bond. I shook my head with a pale face, speaking with a sigh,
" No, my king. There is something else that I would like to ask you. But I will ask only after I complete my mission in Lucius's castle."
King Zion knit his eyebrows together. He looked around before giving them his order,
" All Of You! Step outside!"
They left without any delay. As soon as they left, King Zion ordered me coldly,
" Bend over the desk, Monica!"
I swallowed hard and complied with his order. Walking over to the desk, I lean over the desk, waiting for him to come. He caught me in a minute and forced me to part my legs wide. Without any prior notice, he started with a violent thrust. I let out a cry as he began to pound inside me vigorously, the desk shaking from his brutal attacks. I was getting breathless as he didn't stop for a second.
He growled into my ears, still pounding inside my wetness,
" REMEMBER ATHENA! NO MATTER HOW MANY TIMES VIKTOR FUCKS YOU, YOU WILL ALWAYS BE MINE."
I choked on my words as I reached my climax. I didn't understand King Zion.He didn't want me as his mate but he wasn't letting me go either. I muttered between my tears of pleasure and frustration,
" Wh..why...You don't love me..you don't.. want me.. Why?"
He paused between his movements and fell silent. He blurted, taking me by surprise,
" I WANT YOU BUT NOT AS MY MATE, MONICA. YOU WILL BE MINE.. FOREVER.."
" ALL HAIL THE KING, LUCIUS DE ROSSI."
Someone announced in a loud voice, grabbing our attention in the doorway. I lifted my head slightly to look in that direction. The crowd was making it impossible for me to look at the king.
I was so preoccupied with my thoughts that I didn't notice myself, moving to the other side aimlessly. As a result, my hand slipped off, the tray meeting the floor with a loud bang. I gasped out of shock but was immediately put down by the roar of a young woman,
" HOW DARE YOU RUIN MY MOMENT!"
I snapped my eyes up to find a well-dressed lady standing. She was around my age and the small crown over her head confirmed that she belonged to a noble family. The head of the maids rushed to the spot, immediately bowing,
" Lady Agatha. Forgive us. She is new and doesn't have any etiquette yet. I will teach her."
Agatha looked pissed at me. She shot me a death glare before muttering furiously,
" She almost ruined my dress. Does she fucking know that I was going to meet the king now? Goddess!! I feel like whipping her ass. She looks like a piece of shit."
My wolf growled inside me in defense. It was clear that she was putting on a drama on purpose. I did nothing except drop the tray on her way. Agatha blurted out furiously,
" KNEEL & APOLOGIZE."
Fuck! She wasn't the queen, so why should I?
I hesitated but the head of the maid slapped me all of a sudden, growling at me,
" What are you waiting for? She is our future queen. KNEEL YOU SLUT!"
Future Queen? Why didn't they mention that?
Shoving the proud wolf back into my mind, my knee sank to the ground, ready to apologize. Each word from my mouth came out trembling, filled with rage,
" For.. give me.."
Lady Agatha raised her head haughtily and walked away not before stepping on my palm. A hiss left my mouth from the pain of her stomping feet. I got up after they walked away, going back to my position to serve the king.
A sweet, playful voice caught my attention, coming from the hallway,
" There..there..my beautiful Fiancée."
I couldn't help from look up. My wolf squirmed in delight as she heard the King. Lucius De Rossi was greeting Lady Agatha with his silver crown. The playful smile on his face almost made me forget the fact that he was ruthless against his enemies. His tanned skin with a pair of grey eyes almost emitted the vibe of a war hero. There was a certain playfulness in his eyes that made him different from his step-brother, Zion De Rossi.
The maids around me smiled at his presence. He seemed to carry the charm of a playful man. Lady Agatha swirled her gown to show him, pride lacing out of her voice,
" Look at me, Your Majesty! Ain't I look beautiful? Don't I look like the perfect Luna?"
The smile on Lucius's face appeared awkward. He took a glance at her and blurted out straightforwardly,
" Yeah.. almost like the girl that I slept with last night."
Lady Agatha's face fell and I almost had a good laugh until I saw a familiar face,
" You have picked the wrong occasion to ask something silly, my niece. But you are always admired by the king and us."
Alpha Gerrat walked in from the opposite direction of the court. My blood boiled in rage as soon as his sinful face came into my view. He changed over the years. His smile was still deceiving just like he did with my father, the man whom my father regarded as his brother. Gerrat's hair grew a little white over the years. Even after so much time has passed, I can't forget the painful face of my pregnant sister-in-law.
My wolf almost went out to strangle him but I was fighting to control it. King Lucius turned to reply to him,
" Alpha Gerrat. When did you come back from traveling?"
Alpha Gerrat replied with a playful grin, walking slowly back into the castle,
" Just now. I must say that you are their true heir by heart and soul. Just my niece needs to bear you a son and King Zion will have no value in the whole kingdom."
I furrowed my brows tightly at his words. What was he trying to do between them exactly?
Gerrat's laughter reached my ears as we were waiting outside the hall. King Lucius and his peasants were chatting inside. They were invited here for unknown reasons. Thankfully, I was selected to serve the food tonight. Hopefully, King Lucius would have an eye for me.
A low growl from werewolves caught my attention. I turned aside to see a group of black-caged wolves. I asked the girl next to me,
" Why are they chained? They don't shift?"
The girl replied in a low voice, staring fearfully at the wolves,
" The wolves belong to Alpha Gerrat. They are wild wolves and don't shift. They are very dangerous and attack anyone who is in front of them. That's why, they are always chained."
I smiled at the little information that I received. As the guard shouted at us to deliver the food inside, I came up with a wicked idea. I passed my tray to the girl and was excused from there. The wolves were all alone and I didn't want to miss the chance.
I went behind the wolves secretly and unchained them, stepping away before they could attack me. To meet my expectations, they dashed straight into the gathering party, shouting like a hungry wolf. I waited in the dark until they were all shouting, running in different directions.
I ran into the party, pretending to be shocked, and saw Alpha Gerrat, struggling to stop his pets. They attacked him, made him bleed which was my biggest satisfaction. My eyes shifted to King Lucius who was killing the wolves with his sword. The biggest one came behind him and wanted to punch him back.
I didn't think twice to grab my knife and run in his direction. Before I could even touch the wolf, the black wolf suddenly turned his attenti
on to me and howled aggressively. His claws met my skin before I had the chance to defend myself.
