Stolen Bite

Chapter 10

Evelyn's POV

My whole back is now in excruciating pain. It hurts. Hurts like a b***h.

Okay! Maybe I really underestimated him and his energy or skills or whatever. Because this shot was so clean that it is making my eyes sting with unshed tears of pain.

With lot of efforts, I successfully open my eyes only to see that he is looking at me tilting his head a little to his left. I see the guards about to charge but one hand raise from me, and they stop dead in their tracks.

I finally stand up. Look into his eyes again. I don't know what is in his eyes, but it is almost like.. I cannot look at something other when I am looking at his eyes!

And this man is heck stronger. In this weaker state, he managed to show me pain after so long. Being the werewolf princess no one really made me feel pain. No one had the guts to. But this man here, introduced pain to me. So maybe I should help him. By showing him the feel of death.

I walk to filth. He is looking at me with amusement filled eyes.

"That was a really great one" I smirk at him.

Finally! An equal opponent. This fight is going to give me a very nice time. Because no one would want to fight with me afraid I might kill them.

"Thanks. And maybe you should get trained a little more" he smirks back.

Oh! How bad I just want to wipe that smirk off!!!

"So you finally want to fight back?" I ask him.

He doesn't nod. He doesn't shake his head. He doesn't say anything.

Everything he does, gets on my goddamn nerves. Just watching him breathe is switching my monster mode on and I absolutely have no idea what to do. I want to kill him so bad but I should wait till the coronation.

I see my father through the corner of my eye this time. My eyes fall on him and my back goes straight.

At the same time, I am pretty much in shock looking at filth gently bowing to show his respect to my father. I definitely did not expect this. I thought Rogues hated the Alphas and Royals!

"Evelyn!" My father exclaims.

I look at the guard who is hanging his head low. He might have mindlinked my father about the mess going on in here. I will deal with him later on.

"Dad! I want to do this. So please, let me" I tell him.

"Evelyn, sweety! I know what you are implying at.. but trust me.. he is never a harm" my father says.

"That does not-"

"Evelyn King! When I tell you to stop, you will" my father raises his voice.

Something in me is tickling. The way he is looking at this filth. The way he is raising his voice against me. The way he is dealing with what is happening right now. Everything! Everything is absolute bullshit.

I now see Liam at the door of this cell. Wow! Now everyone will know what is happening in here.

"Father! This is just a fight!!" I tell him.

He stays silent for a moment. And he opens his mouth to tell me something but I beat him to it with my reply again.

"If you are worried that I would kill him, then you don't have to. This is not the time. Someday I will. Yes. But not now" I say with a voice that screams I am not interested in this discussion.

"Watch your tone! I am still the King!" His voice is much more stern now.

"Seriously, dad? You are talking for this Rogue right here??" I yell out in frustration.

"Maybe I should also reconsider about your coronation. Because you are missing out a law" my father says.

And I look at him totally confused. But he is silent. His silence right means so many things that I cannot pinpoint which one of it is what he means. I look around and everyone are staring at a random thing since they cannot look at the Royals.

"What-"

"When a wolf, be it righteous or sinful. If no harm intended to the race. The wolf shall have equal rights of freedom and life" Filth's voice stuns me.

I look at my father. He nods.

Wow! So it means that!!

"Dad, dad are you seriously? Oh! Okay. Gosh! I don't even know-"

"Evelyn Mae King! You will drop this, right now!" My father says in his Royal tone.

And my whole body pulses with anger. I might even be visibly shaking right now too. I don't understand why my father is supporting this man when he knows what I would do to him. He knows about this silver cells and yet he did not say anything!

"You knew then. But you are restricting now?" I ask him.

He just looks at me. His stare is hard. I did not see him this way in years. The last time I saw him getting all serious and angry with me was when I sneaked into human world, partied, got drunk and shifted to my wolf form while nearly thirty people were watching!

"Please don't recall that awful day!" Tasha says.

Agree actually! That was an awful day. Well, awful night!!

"Because I did not know you would be this cruel! I mean, look at him" he says walking towards us.

I take a glance at filth. He stands straight without saying a word ever since my father arrived. I don't know if that is out of respect or if he is plotting something in his head right now.

"Good Evening, King!" I hear Filth's voice that sounds so different from how he talked to me moments ago.

So I guess he indeed respects the King. Is he on good side like dad said? But then, he is still a rogue. My father is supporting a Rogue instead of his own daughter.

There there there. The monster switch in me is slowly turning on. I look at my father with a hard stare. This man is totally supporting a rogue over his daughter.

I look at filth.

Everything about him is irritating.

Everything about him is annoying.

I hate his existence with every cell of my body.

And maybe, my monster switch has finally turned on! Because before I realise, I am already at the table filled with silver tools. Choose the silver knife with wooden handle.

I walk to filth without caring that he is talking to my father.

"Ev! No!!!" Liam yells but it's too late.

Filth is too into the conversation with my father that he did not realise what I was doing. He turns around just as Liam shouts. And at the same time the silver knife pierces into his chest. I see blood. I feel his blood trickling down on to my hand and down the floor.

"Evelyn! What have you done!!" My father is yelling and he is rushing but I don't care.

Filth is looking at me and for the first time, I see something in his eyes that is not confidence.

I just want to hurt him more. So I play with the knife still in his body pushing him more into pain. He holds my shoulders and squeezes it hard. That is how much pain he is experiencing.

Good. Because I was in pain few moments ago too.

But, what he did later threw everyone into immense state of shock. He pulled me more towards him. His forehead pressed into the crook of my neck.

"Betrayal!" He whispered once.

The moment I pulled the knife out that only brought him more pain, he did something that never happened in werewolf history. I don't even know if that will happen in future too.

His fangs come out of nowhere and he bites my neck hard. My whole body pulsates with the new found mark. Sparks running through every cell of my body. Something in me is changing!

He is not my mate. And yet, he marks me.
