Chapter 7 Making Advances

  • Patricia
  • “Oh no it’s okay, you guys can head out alone. I
  • only came to apologize then head off to the bookstore, I need some things from
  • there.” I said with gritted teeth my tongue betraying my heart and hastily got
  • out of there. I felt like I was suffocating to death having to watch my husband-to-be’s
  • passionate kiss with another woman. My heart shuttered to pieces. I’ve truly
  • fallen in love with this god-like man. His dark shiny skin was complement to my
  • milky white one and I knew we were right for each other but here he was in
  • heated passionate kisses with a girl who is not only a weak human to me but also
  • stinky. What is it that he sees in her that he didn’t even bat an eye in
  • intimidating me to scurry away from them? I swear I’m going to snatch him right
  • under her nose and watch her heart writhe in pain. I’m going to make her feel
  • as much pain as I’m feeling right now. I wandered around the school and settled
  • down at a park and scrolled through my phone to check on my Instagram account.
  • I wanted something to take my mind away from the bile of anger I was feeling
  • from the pit of my gut. Instagram or Facebook or Twitter, none of them could
  • quell the hatred I felt for Lucy. At first I didn’t think of her as a threat
  • but now I’m beginning to reconsider. I don’t know how time passed but it must
  • have been because for the first time my Lioness was in support of me and she
  • also felt disrespected by Prince Kenneth’s intimidating look at us. Jacy
  • wondered why she couldn’t feel a connection with his lion. Was is because he
  • also hated her? The day passed by and it was a sigh of a relief as I didn’t
  • want to spend any more second next to the stench of this girl by my side. She
  • tried acting all concerned about my mood swings but I did not care. I told her
  • I was fine and would see her tomorrow. I honestly think her usefulness has come
  • to an end and now I should ditch her. I couldn’t bear the scent of my man on
  • her anymore. Though it calmed me a bit, I hated her for effortlessly having
  • what should be mine and it seemed as if I would have to struggle to make it
  • mine. I decided it was time for me to make a bold move. It didn’t matter
  • anyways because no matter what, me and Kenneth are bound by an unbreakable
  • decree. Unless he wanted a blood oath, which simply means a bloody challenge which
  • could cost him his throne or his life. Therefore, no matter how much he doesn’t
  • want me, eventually he will be mine. I don’t know how I arrived at his office
  • the next day, but I boldly knocked on the door. “Come in!” his husky voice rang
  • out. This time around he wasn’t with that human slut but he wasn’t alone either.
  • His duobus and tribus were with him. I was determined to execute my plan
  • regardless. “Hello everyone! I hope I’m not intruding but I would love to have
  • a word with Prince Ken please.” I said before I could chicken out. I was a huge
  • ball of nerves. “That’s Prince Kenneth for you. Only my girl and my best
  • friends call me Ken,” he growled at me. His friends looked at him and I knew
  • they were mind linking because they soon stood up to leave.  I was trying by all means to appear bold and
  • not allow his dominant aura to oppress me. I cleared my throat and looked at
  • him straight in his eyes. I was an equal to him, nothing forces me to submit to
  • him. “No disrespect my prince but don’t you feel it?” I asked him. He looked at
  • me like I just grew horns. “What on earth are you on about?” he bellowed
  • sounding annoyed. I don’t know why this man always sounds irritated with me. I have
  • heard that only already mated men feel so annoyed with other ladies, but what
  • is it with him? Or is he perhaps mated to that human? Could it be why he is
  • smitten with her? “The mate pull that is, don’t you feel it? Didn’t you notice
  • that was why I ran off the first day we met? That was because I was hurting
  • over the fact that my mate happened to be a boyfriend to my only friend in this
  • school.” I claimed. His frown and a low but very intimidating growl emitting
  • from his belly were evident enough that his animal was also getting pissed off.
  • “Who the hell do you think you are to talk to me in that manner and why would I
  • feel a mate bond with someone who isn’t my mate?” he whisper-shouted his eyes
  • piercing mine as well as my soul. I backed off a little to put a distance
  • between us because I felt the tension rising between us. Was I perhaps right he
  • is mated to that human? I shook my head and cautiously spoke. “What do you mean
  • by someone who isn’t your mate? Do you seriously not feel the mating bond or
  • you want to reject and hurt me for a weak human who will only weaken you eventual…”
  • I couldn’t get to finish my sentence as he was by my side in a jiffy, pinning
  • me to the wall while an earth shuttering roar from him shook the office. I was panting
  • for air when I felt his friends tugging and pulling his hands off my neck. “Get
  • this foul mouthed woman out of my office before I do something I’ll regret
  • later.” He did not even spare me a glance as his first and second in command
  • pulled me out of his office. I was glad that at least I accomplished my
  • mission. I had planted some doubts. If he thought Lucy was his mate, now he
  • will begin to question and doubt it and perhaps give me a chance in his heart. I
  • shrugged aggressively from Malcolm and Thomas’s grips as soon as we were
  • outside his office. I sighed a relief because there were no humans on site,
  • though I was very sure that they might have heard the roar that shook the
  • building. I walked off rubbing my neck which was on fire. I knew for sure that my
  • neck was red as it had just been strangled by a most powerful grip. I swear, if
  • I wasn’t a strong lion I would have passed out right there. Tears streamed down
  • my face as I walked to where my car was parked, mind linking my bodyguards so
  • we can leave. Torrents of tears began flowing out as soon as I got inside the car.
  • I did not want to stay any second on this school grounds. I swear by the
  • goddess I’ll kill Lucy. Looks like the only way to get what’s mine will be by
  • eliminating her first. “Don’t be stupid Pat. Don’t make any hasty decisions
  • that will put us in trouble.” Jacy was going all weak on me again. I was so
  • furious. “Shut up Jace, you are not helping” I snapped at her. Annoyed she
  • retreated to the back of my mind giving me a growl. I suddenly felt bad for
  • snapping at the only one who is always with me.
