Majesties

Chapter 6

Kaia Celene

I’ve been here for two-three days….. maybe; it’s hard to tell since there are no windows in here. Just dark. A perfect place for sinners just as myself.

For the past days that I've been locked up, Ashton never showed his face again. The last time he was here was when he asked me why I was chased by some hunters. I didn't tell him everything though and after that he's been starving me. I think I was only able to eat once a day but not without some wolfsbane on my food.

My hand is still tied behind my back so therefore I can’t use my hands to eat. He's treating me like a dog. Literally. It’s ironic though. Werewolves are almost the same as dogs. He’s stupid if he’s thinks I’ll give him the satisfaction.

‘This is entertaining.’ I smirked at Leah’s comment. Indeed the situation itself is quite amusing. I thought wolves usually are head over heels in love with their mates but I guess I was wrong.

The full moon has passed and our energy has returned. Gathering all my strength I tried to break the silver handcuffs even if it burned my skin, I don’t care. It doesn’t hurt. It doesn’t affect us anymore; all of it.

The moment the silver handcuff was broken; I stood up and peaked through the small hole on the door. I saw three guards walking around and two guards guarding the main door. I need to find a way to get out of here.

I continued to peak through the hole until the main door opened revealing a girl with a black hair, behind her is Irene. I went back to my previous position and listened to their conversation.

“Where is the female rogue?” asked the girl with the black hair.

“She’s in there princess.” Princess huh? She must be the King’s sister. But what is she doing here and what does she want with me?

“I want her released.” There was a moment of silence before one of the guards answered, "The king's orders were clear princess. We are not to release her until he says so." Now why would the princess want to release me?

"I don't give a f*ck about my stupid brother's orders. I want you to release her or I swear I will kill you right here, right now. Don't test my patience mutt." The princess warned. Again there was a moment of silence and then I heard the sound of the keys.

The door of my cell was opened and the girl with the black hair stood tall in front of me.

"Leave us Leo." she ordered. The guy named Leo hesitated but he left leaving me with the girl and Irene.

"Is this her Irene?” she asked eyes still glued to me.

“Yes princess.” Irene answered.

“Help her and bring her to the guest room.” Irene gladly followed her orders and walked closer to me. I stood up, not showing any sign of tiredness or pain. When I was standing in front of her I said, “Thank you princess. I am in your debt-ish.”

"My brother is a jerk for treating you like this. I’m sorry." I just shrugged my shoulders to show that I don’t give a s**t about it. She looked sympathetic but it didn’t really reach her eyes. This b***h is playing something.

“Go on Irene take her. Feed her, clothe her and let her rest, I’d like to bond with her tomorrow. Are you in?” she turned to me and smiled but I can see right through her. I wanted to say no but even if I decline, I can tell that this princess is a spoiled brat. I gave her a forced smile and slowly nodded my head as a response.

Irene and I walked together to this guest room located at the second floor of the castle. I can only see a few people in here. The rest of the pack must be in the pack house.

“Who lives here Irene?” I can’t help but ask.

“Oh we all do. All six hundred of us although some mated wolves wanted to have some privacy so there are a few houses built a few meters away from here, for those who wanted to live alone with their family. They all have training today that is why nobody’s around.” Irene answered.  

As we arrived at my designated room, Irene opened the door for me and showed me inside. The room’s not as fancy as I imagined.

I walked in to the closet and it was already filled with clothes, shoes and other necessities. Not bad.

“I’ll let you get settled in while I get you some food. Decent food.” I smiled at her as she left me. I continued to roam around the room and as I stood by the window I saw Ashton marching his way to the castle with a grim look on his face. He stopped his tracks and looked up to my window. As our eyes met his expression got darker. He must have hated the idea of setting me free not that I asked for it.

A few moments later, the door slammed open revealing an angry King. I gave him a cold look as he marched his way to me. He grabbed my arm and look at me with anger.

“How did you get out?!! I told you not to leave the cell unless I told you so, why did you defy my orders.” He said through gritted teeth. I frowned at him.

“Did you tell me that? I can’t seem to remember, I must have passed out when you did. And it’s not just me SIRE; you should blame your guards and your sister for letting me out. But without their help I can still get out of that prison cell.” a smirk is playing on my lips as he slowly losses his grip on me.

“Alice did that?” he asked almost to himself.

“Yes I did Ashton.” We both turned to look at his sister Alice who’s now standing by the door frame.

“I know he is your mate Ashton and it is not right to treat her like this. Are you freaking insane? You know I always wanted a sister and my only hope of having one is through your mate. I won’t let you hurt her. Not on my watch.” Alice declared causing a dangerous growl from her brother. I don’t know exactly what to feel about the situation but behind Alice’s brave declaration is a venomous lies. I might be jumping into conclusions but my instincts are always on the spot.

With one last growl and a deathly glare for me, Ashton left the room. Alice glanced at me and smiled, “I have to go and talk to him.”

 I nodded my head in response and then she left.

‘I can tell she’s a scheming little b***h. Be careful.’ Leah said.

‘You don’t have to tell me twice Leah.’

Alice

“What the hell Alice?!!!! Why did you let her out? I was supposed to make her submit to me.” I rolled my eyes at my brother as he continued to rant me about letting her mate go. I mean I was just doing the right thing. But in all honesty, I was just curious about my brother’s mate and the moment I laid my eyes on her, hmmmmm.. so disappointing.

“Shut up Ashton. I’m bored and I’m in need of a new toy. I want to play with your mate a little and if you let me handle her I’ll give you something in return. I’ll try to get to know her and know her dirty little secrets. Is that enough?” I gave my brother a devilish grin and he laughed.

“That’s my sister. I always knew you’re up to something.” he said too happily and I scowled at him as he started to mess my hair.

“Not the hair jerk. So what are your plans for her Ashton? You’re not gonna replace Nicole are you?” my brother smiled from ear to ear and took shot of his glass of whisky.

“No. Nicole is the strongest and smartest warrior in the kingdom aside from that she belongs to a noble family. His grandfather is part of the council giving our kingdom the advantage among everyone else. She’s perfect to be my queen.” My brother said dreamily and I approve. Of course I won’t let a worthless piece of rogue b***h to rule our kingdom. If that ever happens I’d rather be the queen myself but no I don’t want to be just a queen; I will be the High Queen.

“Hmm. Then how about your mate? What was her name again? Irene mentioned it to me. Something like Aya? Maya? Oh Kaia. What are you gonna do about her?” I asked.

“Killing her would weaken me so I’m not gonna kill her. I will make her my slave, my mistress, my pet. I’ll f**k her when I want to, I’ll beat her when I’m in a bad mood. I will make her mine.” I smiled as I watched my brother’s dark expression.

“Did I mention that I like this version of you Ashton?”
