Kayla POV The door leading to the silver room burst open and while I lay weakly on the ground, I could hear the guards conversing among themselves about a certain someone. They threw a blanket at me and I quickly wrapped it around my body since I was stark naked. ‘’Such a shame that she will be the cause of her death.’’ ‘’It is all her fault. How dare she attacked a royal!’’ This someone they were talking about was me but I wondered why they were talking so low as if it was a crime to speak. ‘’where are you taking me?’’ I weakly asked as I was dragged out of the silver room. My body was covered in blisters since the silver burned into my body overnight and I couldn’t heal because I had no wolf. I spent the night in agony but the guards looked like they don’t care about that as they pulled me outside of the building. ‘’where are you taking me?’’I asked them again and struggled against their muscular bodies but I just ended up hurting myself in the process as one of the blisters in my hand popped. I winced in pain and blinked the tears that had gathered in my eyes away. ‘’if you both could answer me and….’’ ‘’There will be no answer as you are going to face the consequences of your sins!’’ Lady Kira grinned at me as she walked toward me with a smirk on her face. ‘’you are alive,’’ she scoffed and beckoned to the guards to let go of me and they did. ‘’I must say that you are truly strong,’’ she scrunched her face in disgust as she stared at the blanket around my body. ‘’now you face your punishment,’’ she grabbed my hand and pulled me towards a black SUV van. ‘’where are you taking me to?’’I curiously asked. ‘’To face your punishment!’’ she barked. ‘’I already told you that your mother will be punished in your stead but if you choose not to believe me then it is your problem.’’ ‘’where is my mother!’’ I yelled and yanked my hand freed from hers and in the process, I lost my balance and almost fell to the ground but someone appeared behind me and I felt the strong arms around my waist. The instant he touched me, I felt a tingle of excitement and I could smell the unusual scent from him. Another prince? I thought because his touch was different. Unlike the two princes, his touch was neutral. I liked that he was touching me and at the same time, I hated that he had his hands around me. ‘’clumsy little wolf,’’ he said in a sultry voice and I raised my head to look at him. His hazel eyes were alluring and staring closely at him, I could see that he was the most handsome of all the princes. ‘’I know I am handsome,’’he winked at me. A flirt? I see. ‘’pardon her your highness,’’ Lady Kira apologized as if I had done something wrong. I hated how she was always acting perfectly to gain favor in the sight of the royals. Her attitude stinks and I wished I could give her an earful. ‘’let go of me,’’ I shouted and tried to break free from his strong arms on my waist but he didn’t let go. ‘’I said….’’ ‘’Why should I let go of you? If I do, you will fall to the ground and I wouldn’t want to do that to a beautiful girl like yourself,’’ he winked at me again. What the hell? I thought. He was different from the other two princes as he seemed to be playful and a shameless flirt but, I couldn’t judge him yet. He was a royal and the same as his family. ‘’I rather fall to the ground than be held by you,’’ I said through gritted teeth forcing myself out of his grip. As soon as I was freed, I stumbled forward and fell to the ground popping more of the blisters in my hand. I winced in pain and cursed the prince under my breath. ‘’if you are going to curse at me, you might as well say it loudly so I can hear you,’’ he appeared in front of me and stretched his hand for me to take. ‘’I can help you again.’’ ‘’I rather remained on the ground than let you touch me again,’’ I spat angrily and stood up from the ground on my own. ‘’when I heard that you stabbed Ace, I couldn’t believe it but seeing you now, I can see that you are truly who they say you are,’’ he remarked and burst into laughter. I frowned at him wondering why he was laughing and at the same time, I never imagined that one of the princes could be carefree. I stared at him as he laughed intrigued by his different character. ‘’I see you like me,’’ his hand touched my left cheek and he rubbed it gently then pulled me closer to himself. ‘’what are you doing?’’ I protested but he placed his hand on my lips and I suddenly lost my voice. He lowered his head and whispered into my left ear. ‘’I know you want me,’’ he chuckled and his sultry voice send goosebumps to my body. He sounded like a walking temptation and I was shamelessly not resisting him. It must be the bond, that was what I thought until he said something that made me regain my sense. ‘’Have my child first and I will give you the freedom you want,’’ he nibbled on my ear. I pushed him backward with all of my might and slapped him on the chest. Lady Kira gasped and fell to the ground while apologizing to the prince but she was ignored. As if she had not gotten enough, she stood up and rushed to slap me like always but was stopped by the prince. ‘’no one asked you to hit her!’’ The prince shouted at her and dropped her hand. ‘’I see how she is wounded on the head but you are not doing anything about it!’’ ‘’Prince Brian, I…..’’ Brian? His name was Brian, the one I met last night was Liam and the first prince was Ace. Now that I knew their names, it didn’t change the fact that none of them recognized me as their mate. ‘’I see how she is reeking of silver because you locked her up in the silver room!’’Brian raised my hand revealing the blisters in my hand. ‘’she is our vessel but yet you treat her like this. How is she supposed to carry our children!’’ I was startled by his change in reaction. He was different from the prince in the way he was quick to notice my wounds. The first prince also noticed my scars but I hated that he was about to force me to sleep with him. ‘’Prince Liam, I am sorry,’’ Lady Kira apologized. ‘’I am only following the orders of the Luna Queen. This wolf stabbed the first prince and I was ordered to lock her up. ‘’ ‘’By my mother?’’ Brian asked and sigh heavily. ‘’I have to find out about that but….’’ I yanked my hand freed from his before he could finish. What was I expecting from him? To save me? I must be delusional because that would never happen. ‘’I need to see my mother and save her,’’ I said to Lady Kira and proceeded to enter the car but Brian grabbed my hand. ‘’what the hell are you doing? Do you have any idea what they are going to do to your mother!’’ he yelled at me. ‘’it is better not to see it.’’ ‘’Don’t you dare me what to do!’’ I retorted. ‘’The only reason why I am in this deep mess in the first place is that the royals created a stupid law and now, the ones below have to suffer for it,’’ I bite my lips to hold back the tears as I thought about my brothers and how they were brutally murdered. ‘’why I’m I even talking to you about this when you are a royal prince!’’ I yanked my hand freed from his and entered into the Van. Brian tried to enter after me but Lady Kira stopped him. ‘’I apologize for this your highness but the Luna Queen ordered this,’’ she bowed and entered the car with me. ‘’start the car,’’ she gave orders to the driver and then turned to face me. ‘’how I wish I could strangle you right now!’’ she clenched her fists and inhaled deeply. ‘’I just hoped that you learn your lesson once you see the punishment the Luna Queen has for you.’’ I closed my eyes and leaned against the window ignoring her yelling. I was not in the mood for her. I was ready for any form of punishment as long as my mother was not going to be affected. I thought about the prince and how they all seemed different with the little interaction I had with them. The first prince Ace seemed ruthless, the second prince Brian was carefree but had the character of a playboy while the last prince Liam was the definition of the I don’t care about your type and there is me, the one who is mated to all three of them but I was the only one who felt the connection as they were either pretending not to feel the mate bond or they hated me for being a rankless wolf. What a crazy life. I had no idea how long we have been driving because my eyes were closed and I was lost in my world. It was until I felt a soft tap on my back that I fluttered my eyes open and realized that the van had stopped. Before I could even blink, I was dragged out of the van by one of the guards that was in the car with us. When I was out of the van, I closed my eyes for a few seconds as the sun shone brightly into my eyes and for someone who had not seen the sun in a while, I was amazed but all of that soon end when I looked forward and noticed that my mother was tied to a tree. I gasped and tried to move forward but I was held down by the guards. I looked around and noticed that we were in the popular market square I used to hear about in my realm. It was the biggest square in the whole of the three realms. It was a square that joined all the realms together and they call it The center realm. ‘’what is my mother doing there!’’ I shouted at Lady Kira who was standing in front of me. ‘’I will take the punishment myself. Let my mother go!’’ Lady Kira turned to face me and laughed. ‘’Do you know why this place is called the center realm aside from the fact that it connected the three realms?’’ she asked but I didn’t respond because I was focused on my mother who was tied to the tree. ‘’This place is called the center realm because of the blood that had been spilled in this square!’’ she answered her question and laughed out loud. ‘’Today, your mother joins those whose blood will be spilled here!’’ My eyes widened and almost popped out of the socket when I saw a guard place a sword on my mother’s neck. ‘’no!’’ I yelled and tried to break free from the guards but they were two times stronger than before. ‘’let me go!’’ I kicked my legs. ‘’I am the one who stabbed the prince and so I should be punished instead! Let me go!’’ Lady Kira turned back to face me and gave me a resounding slap and my screams stopped. ‘’if you had accepted your fate then you wouldn’t be in this situation. Who the hell do you think you are!’ he yelled at her and grabbed my chin. ‘’By now, you should know who rules our world and there are things that you shouldn’t have done but your stupidity didn’t let you know that and your mother is going to die because of you!’’ I shook my head and screamed. ‘’No!’’ Tears streamed down my face as I continued kicking my legs. ‘’I can’t let you kill my mother!’’ I raised my head to face my mother and noticed that she was staring back at me with a smile on her face. It made me remember how she had helped me escape from getting killed when our pack was attacked. ‘’Mother,’’ I cried out and bite hard on the first guard holding my arm. He punched me in the face but I didn’t let go and even though I was bleeding out from my head, I didn’t let go finally, he let go of my hand and I was able to break free from the other guard. ‘’I am not going to allow you to die!’’ I shouted and ran towards my mother but Lady Kira grabbed me by my blanket and tried to stop me from moving forward I removed the blanket from around me not caring if I was naked and being watched by a lot of people that had gathered in the square. I had to protect my mother and stopped her from dying. She was the only family I had left and if she die, I would end up hating myself for not being able to save her life. As I got closer, I saw the royal guard raise his sword, and my heart lurched in my chest. But then, something unexpected happened. I lost my balance and stumbled, causing me to accidentally hit my head on the hard ground. I felt my head ringing as I tried to push myself up, but my vision was blurred and my limbs felt weak. I struggled to stand up, disoriented and dizzy, and then, I felt something wet splatter on my body. The bright red blood stained my face. I could barely see anything and I let out a deafening scream and slowly, I fell to the ground cursing at myself for not being able to save my mother but I heard a familiar voice and a hand caught me before I could fall to the ground, ‘’Easy.’’ The voice sounded husky and yet again, I could smell the unusual scent that only the princes had on them.
