The curse
1089 Words
Sebastian entered the room where his mother was sitting deep in thoughts. As she saw Sebastian, she stood up and wanted to hug him but Sebastian frowned and moved back.
"Are you angry with me?"
She acted like a nice mother while Sebastian did not say anything. His mother scolded him in front of everyone for the first time in his life.
He was a spoiled prince and everyone knew this. He was the kind of person who never cared about others. He was a selfish vile creature which can not be tamed by anyone.
"Mother is sorry for everything but I have a good news for you."
She held his hand and smiled gently.
"That werewolf...
He said, he is the mate of that human."
Sebastian raised his eyebrow.
"And from that I have an idea."
The lycan queen smiled viciously showing she had an evil intention in her heart for the princess. Yifang wanted to ask what it was but he decided to stay quiet.
"Let him mark her.
If he marked her, then no one can stop him from taking that filthy human away.
Not even your father."
There was a rule, once a female is claimed she has to be with the person who marked her. This rule could never be broken. Not even the king can change this rule.
"But still you can not forget you scolded me in front of everyone."
He pouted as he acted angry in front of his mother while the queen chuckled softly as she moved closer to him and put her hand over his cheek.
"What do you want in return?
Let mother show how sorry she is."
"I will let you know."
"For that princess, do you still want to get rid of her?"
"Why so?" He raised his eyebrow knowing how much his mother hates humans
"Sebastian, I can see you are feeling sympathy towards her but don't forget about your curse. Only your mate can lift the curse."
The queen spoke in a stern tone this time making him roll his eyes.
"Sebastian, I am doing this for you.
We need to get rid of that princess. We need to find your mate."
"I found my mate. I am bringing her here soon."
He told his mother who was stunned not knowing if you should be happy on this news or worry that Sebastian hid such important news from her.
After sometime, Sebastian came out of the room and walked towards the garden where Saya was walking with his uncle. He stopped near them with an evil grin on his face.
"Oh little princess. I have a good news for you."
Saya looked at him rather confused. Her wrist was still wrapped in the bandage and she looked miserable with her swollen cheek.
"That man who attacked you earlier is your mate."
Saya shivered hearing the words from Sebastian's mouth.
"What...what do you mean by that?"
She could feel her voice trembling while Sebastian chuckled.
"You know what that mean, princess. Better be ready to go with him and live a .... happy life." He had a teasing grin on his face while Saya went pale.
"Princess, you should go to your room."
Kyle gently told her while Saya glanced at both of them and then walked towards her room. As she disappeared from their eyes the expressions on Yifang's face changed.
"Uncle..."
"Yes, my prince."
"This is going to create a problem." He was not looking like the arrogant prince but as a completely different person.
"We can't let the werewolves put their hands on her." He worriedly told his uncle who nodded.
"You should claim her."
"And what about the curse?"
There were only two people who knew about the curse. Kyle and the queen of lycans beside Sebastian.
"If he took her away then my dream of taking the throne from my father will be scattered.
Also what about those humans. If I could, I would have destroyed them by now but no....my weak father has to make a peace treaty with them.
We are lycans. We are strongest. Those humans should be our slaves not our friends."
His tongue spat poisonous words while Kyle pressed his lips together. He was in this plan with Sebastian but sometimes he could see how much poison was filled in his brain by the queen.
"I will burn their world. I will kill each and every last person of their species.
And I will kill anyone who came in my way."
He looked like a mad person who would not stop at any rate.
Suddenly he smiled as he changed back to his same arrogant personality that looked like he had no care in this world.
Later at night, Saya sat up as she glanced over the prince that was trying to sleep. Her wrist was hurting and her heart was aching.
"Prince Sebastian."
"Hm."
"Are you going to let him take me away?"
Sebastian could not say anything as the question was so sudden. He sat up and stared at her who smiled softly.
"I know you don't like me but you married me. I left everything and everyone behind because I trusted that you would protect me."
She questioned him who did not know why they were talking about this. He laid back and closed his eyes.
"Please help me."
She whispered softly as she prayed in her heart.
"Moon goddess...
They worship you.
But today I am asking you for something.
Please take care of me.
I feel very lonely and scared here. If you wrote my destiny with these animals then it should be you who needs to protect me.
I beg you.
Please protect me.
Please make this man my protector.
I won't ask for anything else but make this man protect me."
She prayed silently in her heart as tears rolled down her cheek not knowing she was asking to change the destiny of two people and if their destines got intertwined, the world was going to burn.
But her pray was heard by Moon goddess.
"Do you want to sleep on the bed?"
Suddenly she heard Sebastian.
"Can I?"
She questioned back who rolled to the other side and did not say anything.
Saya smiled and went to the bed. As she laid on her side, she smiled knowing he was going to protect her in future.
"Thank you prince Sebastian."
Sebastian did not say anything but for a second, the corners of his mouth lifted up.
