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.
