ZENEVIEVA.
I sighed in ecstasy as the sweet fragrance hit my nose and my muscles relaxed on the white fluffy bed.
I should get hit again so I would have more of this rare treatment, its feeling is so erratic.
Tyson can go hang.
I'm not getting up until I have enough naps to stretch my bones and get ready for another tough challenge.
As long as my existence is a threat to be the future Luna of this Pack, I can't escape from Tyson.
He particularly wielded power over everyone in this pack and once he becomes King, all hell will break loose for me cause not even his mother will have a say in his decisions.
A knock on the door made me groan! I just want to have some time alone.
Before I could reply, it slowly creaked open.
Collette poked in.
Wow!! She didn't bang on the door as usual or maybe she thought that it was someone else, not me.
"Happy now?" She asked with hurt lacing her voice and I rolled my eyes.
"I'm seriously not in the mood, you can try the next door."
I said and turned my back away from her.
"Next door is my father's room!! You're staying in the Queen's guest house." My eyes widened at once and I sat up.
That's a lie.
The queen's guest house was mainly for queens from other powerful packs, why would she bring me here?
I didn't even realize how glittering the place was, how rich and elegant the place was.
Argh! The Queen went too far.
"What do you want, Collette?" I folded my arms across my breasts and flipped the annoying strand of hair on my face.
"Tell my mum to release Tyson!" She yelled and her eyes blazed.
"You should tell her Collette, you're her beloved daughter. I'm just a rejected weak and useless rogue as usual.” I told her , grinning at her.
"You're very stupid Zenevieva, your mate is standing with shackles about to be thrown to the dungeon and you're here spewing rubbish and proving how useless you are!!"
She retortef every word with spite and I smiled.
"Exactly! Look for someone useful!" I shrugged at her and admire the huge chandeliers that sparkled on my skin, tye fresh smell of jasmine and orange fruits hits my nose and I instantly became hungry but her presence made it impossible as it irked every feeling away.
"Tyson is outside the sun!!' She cried out and I gasped.
"Oh my!! Are you sure? That's so cruel!" I cried and bursted out laughing.
"I love your mum, Collette, she's the true definition of a strict and principled woman.
Don't worry, she won't kill her son. She would reconsider for my sake."
I grinned and she fumed in pure anger, struggling with herself as she wished to strangle me at the moment
"Oh Zenevieva, you don't know what you're getting yourself into." I smirked archer and nodded. "I know, and I'm getting prepared for it. Who won't be ready for demons like you both?"
The door barged open with force.
"How dare you?!!" Marcella yelled and lunged towards me to hit me but I caught her hands in the air .
"You won't want to go naked again, will you?"
"I'll kill you, dummy, I promised with the very last drop of my blood!"
She yelled and I bit my lips, letting out a scoff. "Good luck!" I said and she gave a long hiss turning to face Collette.
"Where is Tyson?" She asked in worry and Collette shrugged.
"Mum wants to throw him to the dungeon, she seized his crown."
"What?" She gasped and scratched her hair in frustration, not believing her ears.
"Your mum won't do that, she's just threatening him "
"You don't know my mum, She does whatever that's in her mind to do as long as she's offended and If you're being stubborn. I don't know what to do?"
She lamented bitterly.
The Queen never keeps surprising me with her fierce acts towards her children. Others with royalty pamper them to nothing and make sure they carry themselves high as the future leader of the Pack.
"I'll try and talk to the Queen." Marcella suggested but the scoff that escaped Collette's lips was so embarrassing to her.
" Don't even try it Marcella, She detests you!"
That came out as a real warning and Marcella bit her lips in embarrassment.
They all became mute and frustrated and I could only imagine if my brother was in a pitiful state.
A loud terrible cough echoed from the room and we heard a loud thud on the ground.
Collette ran out and there was no doubt that the King fell.
I stood up and went after her but Marcella stopped me.
"Where do you think you're going with your filthy self?"
"Leave the way!" I warned.
"I will not allow you to step your dirty feet into the King's room. Not even the Queen will look pleased with that."
"Really? But I happen to be in the Queen's guest house." She threw her face away blocking the entrance and the King continued coughing.
I pushed her with every strength in me and went after the King's room.
I gasped.
He was on the floor coughing out blood and writhing in pain.
"Dad? Are you okay?" She asked shakily.
"Call the physician, call him quick!" He struggled to say and coughed out loud and she almost pushed me out of the way and fled out.
I walked towards the King and helped him sit down.
His eyes were really dull and dark circles were visible on his pupils.
I rushed out to get some herbs for soothing the throat and the pounding head.
After grinding and squeezing the juices out for him to drink, I placed my hands on his throat and massaged his Adam's apple. That should send internal relief to the throat.
And the fact that he just sat there and made me do all of that to him was easier.
"The herbs will not work if you don't rest. You need to sleep for the next four hours to allow it to settle down in your system, Alpha." I told him and bowed while he nodded and went to lie on the bed.
He looked so weak.
Collette rushed in with the Queen and physician but met me cleaning and wiping off the blood.
"What happened to him?"
Collette asked, looking confused as she stared at her sleeping father.
"Uhhmm…he finally cooled down and slept off."
I lied.
I bowed to the Queen and she smiled.
"You should take a rest, thanks for attending to him "
"She didn't do anything!!" Collette fired angrily but she ignored her and took her heel to the passageway, telling the physician to wait or leave.
"My Queen " I called and bowed.
"Yes dear, are you okay?"
"Yes…uhhmm…Tyson, Can you forgive him please?"
"Of course I can." She said and I smiled but it was quickly replaced with a frown at her next statement.
"That's if only the wedding ceremony takes place tonight, under the full moon." I gasped.
