i nodded, "Yeah, what about it?"
"i'm not sure about going to him at this very hour, he's busy at the moment," he replies sternly.
Our head both going in the direction of the woman's voice that kept screaming for a while now, my eyebrow arched. "Is that what's making him busy?" i pointed towards the direction.
"Yeah, some she-wolf was dragged there earlier."
a she-wolf? probably some rogue.
"Who?" i asked even when i don't know a single she-wolf that i might recall, well it won't hurt to ask right?
"Dunno, too dark to see, and i don't really care." He rolls his eyes before laying down on the cold ground. Look at him being so carefree in maria, well it's not like he'll be tortured around here. Looks like the alpha king scolding him was scarier than maria, so he just decided to lock himself here, rather than talk it out with that temperamental beast.
Well i'd do it too if i was in his place.
"Oh." I blurt out, then i walked towards my mate once again, seeing that he stopped minding me.
"Hey wait! i just told you not to go there, are you deaf?" he shouts from his cell, his voice echoing around, making me stop at my tracks.
What's the big deal?
Oh wait, of course!
I turned a heel, going back at his cell. "Did you see Zyrus expression? what kind of face he was making?"
Well, i needed to know, in case he might vent his anger on me if ever he was in a bad mood. Ironically, we're even here in maria, he might just get pissed at me and throw me in one of these cells.
"Woman, just go home. You won't survive if he sees you here, wait.." He sat up. "Are you even allowed here in the first place?"
I stared at him with eyes saying 'of course not.'
He shook his head in disbelief, "You're so dead."
"What? it's not so bad, we have a unique kind of relationship you know."
he chuckles. "Yeah a friend's with benefits-like relationship?"
I coughed, feeling attacked by his words.
"Oh shut up, at least he beat up some pervert for me." I shot back, eyeing him.
I was pertaining to him.
"Oh so you wanna talk about Zyrus huh?" He stands up, walking towards me. "He trained me PERSONALLY, in all the werewolves that he could train.. ME? ME!!!!" his index finger pointing at himself.
What a weirdo.
"Oh shut up." i barked. "So what? he even beat his STUDENT for ME."
"Pervert then student? really?" He sighs in frustration as if he finally realized his position. "Why would Brother Zyrus even fuck you? you're not even that attract-"
Before he finishes his blasphemous statement, i threw a small pint of offensive magic in his forehead, making him fall on his ass.
"Fuck! What was that?!" He shouts out, looking around him to look for evidence.
I chuckled. "What are you doing looking like an idiot?"
He glares at me. "It must be you! you fake Athena!"
i arched an eyebrow. "Fake Athena? It's not my fault you mistook me for some celebrity."
"You could've just said so! why did you have to.." He curses after, not being able to say the next words.
"Throw you in the garbage?" I added, seeing he couldn't say it. "So that's why you had to bribe Delta huh? How petty."
"What do you know about an Alpha's ego? of course i won't just forget that humiliation," He muttered under his breath, avoiding his gaze. "Hmph, since he holds you as a slight important being, then i'm nicely warning you just to go home."
He lays on the ground once again, his back facing me.
Now that i think about it, he's been rumbling all kinds of shit just to stop me from going there, is it really bad?
I frowned, i knew Zyrus temperament but is it really that bad to intrude while he's working? I've done it in the past a lot of time too- wait he still recognized me as his mate so he tolerated it!
My eyes widened, finally realizing the danger I was in.
"You're right. i should probably leave." I nodded, agreeing with him.
But as my luck has always been bad, I felt a foreboding aura coming close. Looking towards it, my jaw drops instantly. He was standing there as if the devil heard my prayers.
Did he have to appear just when i was about to leave?!
I gulped at his presence. Blood was spilled in his shirt and the near corners of his face, it was probably from that she-wolf that Damien was talking about.
"What are you doing here?" He asked, his eyes cold.
"I-I just wanted to talk about something with you."
Surprisingly, Beta Jaxon was behind him.
"AlphaKing." He whispered, "She lost consciousness."
What? the she-wolf? so she isn't dead yet?
"Assign some guards in that cell, i want to know if she ever wakes up." Zyrus looks behind him, ushering him to do the job. They must've mind-linked since beta Jaxon nodded after staring at Zyrus for a while.
Jaxon passed by me, his eyes filled with wary before finally disappearing at sight.
Okay what was that all about?
"So mind telling me why you're talking to Damien after breaking in?" He asks, irked.
"Okay, i'm sorry if i went in without permission. I told you, i went in just to see you. Talking to him was just a coincidence." I said with clarity, fearing that he might explode any minute now.
He averts his gaze towards Damien, who was now gawking at the both of us in his standing. Damien raises his hand up immediately. "Hold up bro, there's nothing between us."
"of course there's nothing between us, why would you even suggest that?" I rolled my eyes at him.
"huh it's not about suggesting, it pretty obvious seeing my brother's expression." He brags.
Bastard that's not something to brag about! He'll kill you!
As i expected, Zyrus growls towards him, his eyes locking in his. "Looks like you want to stay longer here? Then i'll grant your wish."
Damien's eyes widened like a fool. "W-What? how did you come up with that decision? i never said anything about staying!"
Zyrus ignores him, he walks towards me then takes my hand forcefully to drag me outside the place. When we stepped out, i shrieked in shock when he beats the guards outside, my hand still in his grip while he did so.
His foot on the top of a man's chest, he says. "Next time if you let in somebody without my permission, it'll be your heads! got it?!" He growls angrily, looking at the other beaten guards.
They all whimpered in pain, before apologizing.
I felt my wrist go sore, his grip not loosening. All i could do was endure as he dragged me inside the kingdom, the people looking at us with shocking eyes. Surprisingly though, he was just heading towards his bedroom. He opens it and throws me inside before quickly slamming the door shut.
The door clicks.
"Did he just.. lock me here again?!" I trembled in anger alone in the room.
