Chapter 73
TYSON
The past few days have been nothing short of hell for me, I really had to endure a lot of nonsense but trust me, it was worth it.
Marcella got mad at my gesture towards Zenevieva, Collette went ballistic on me but I really had to ignore them for now.
This could be my only chance and I can't blow it up.
The moon goddess would soon be here after the full moon and I need to find a valid reason to present Zenevieva as a guile.
No, it would be so perfect that not even my mother would say a word after I'm done.
A lot of things had happened and I must say, I'm really impressed with my men who took their time to filter out information for me.
Zenevieva was so sneakish like a snake but I've got my ways.
She visited Green Pack twice and I almost lost it by beating her to pulp but I swallowed it.
She needs the freedom for now, I need her to relax so that she won't know what hit her when I strike. Tyler still suspects me but I'm smart enough not to make me the bad villain but a changed saint.
"Hi Tyson."He greeted me, throwing an arm on my shoulder.
"Hey buddy, where are you heading to?"
I ask, staring at the bow and arrow draped at his back.
"Hunting, Zenevieva is really interested in that. Care to join?"
I bit my lips, this would be the only opportunity to call Marcella over and spend time while filling her with my plans.
"It's okay, if you can't come along. No need to think hard."
"I'll come!" I blurted out without thinking.
"Great, go get your bow. I'm definitely looking forward to winning this hunt."
He said gleefully and I smirked .
I missed hunting with him, In Fact I've never let him win but who knows what he's got under his sleeves.
I'll be with Marcella later, I better steam off a little.
I went in and came out a few minutes later and she was eagerly ready to go.
Her face dropped in disappointment when she saw me.
"You never told me Tyson was tagging along!"
"Uhmm…he opted to come, besides it's no big deal."
"It is!" She yelled and I scoffed.
She definitely didn't buy my façade and I wonder if it's because I'm a terrible actor or because she could see my hatred for her through my eyes.
I can't believe I kissed her!!
Damn my stupid wolf always acting stupidly! I spent hours in the bath to wash my self off her scent, gosh!
"Are we debating on whether to go or not?"
I asked.
"It's okay Tyson, let's go."
I smirked at Tyler but we halted on our tracks when Collette came running and yelling with her bow.
Fuck!!
Can't she just spoil the whole day for me? There's no way Zenevieva will agree to that.
I just need to spend time with these people to gain their attention and trust!
"I'm joining you guys."
Zenevieva scoffed.
"Fine, you can join Tyler. My head is seriously aching right now."
"Don't be like Zenevieva."
"No Tyler, the agreement was just you and I and not some some bunch of sly foxes"
"Did you just refer that statement to me?"
Collette gasped and came closer to her.
"Who else is acting so sly?" She cocked her head in disgust at my sister who flared.
"Are you crazy, is it because you're given the silly treatment that my brother is trying so hard to-"
"Shut up Collette and get lost!" I yelled at her and she seethed.
"Now!" I ordered and she bit her lips.
"You may try to fool my brother and mother but you will never try that with me. I will never ever like you talkless of love. You will always remain a rogue, and an abandoned twart with no direction. Queen my ass!"
She spat and stomped out and Zenevieva turned to stare at me.
"Look, I'm sorr-"
"Hold it Tyson, I might puke from hearing such vomiting lie from your mouth."
She spat with venom and I balled my fingers into a fist, hidden behind me.
"I think you should try and hear him out sometimes Veieva, If he's trying to be nice; don't give him reasons to regret it."
Tyler said and she scoffed.
"Look Tyler, if you're being swayed by his actions then I'm totally disappointed by that. A pig will always return to his dung, this façade doesn't move me at all." She blurted and walked away.
"It's hard to believe you, you know; a part of me thinks she's right and a part of me is blinded that my friend is back and I could trust him."
Tyler said, not breaking eye contact with me and I nodded.
"I know, I was a total jerk."
"You're still a jerk!"
"Fine, and I'm trying so hard to do shit that I don't do."
"Is it because of yourself or the fact the moon goddess is coming, or for the sake of your mum?"
Silence…
"Look Ty, if you become that monster again and treat her and everyone like trash; I'll kill you."
"I know."
I smirked at him and he gave me a slight pat on the shoulder before we both vacated the premises.
"Why is she always there? I've observed totally that she sneaks out to his chambers three times and my father isn't even making an attempt to come out?"
I asked the guards before me.
"We discovered something "
My eyes shoot up.
"She gives him some kind of a strange drink and massages his head more often. I really don't know how to put it but she seemed like some sort of a healer."
I chuckled.
"Can you be real? Who is a healer?" I scoffed at such ridiculous response.
"I'm referring to the Queen your Highness, We haven't observed her going to collect any herbs but I'm so sure that whatever she gives the drink to drink must be some herbs "
"Interesting, are you sure she's not hypnotizing my father?"
They shook their heads in confusion and I sighed.
A heavy punishment should occur when a sacrilege is committed with the king.
What the hell is she doing to my father?
That should be the only way to pin her to a crime she can never escape.
"Look, there's something you will do for me."
They nudged closer to listen attentively.
"Get me the herb and replace it with another."
Their eyes bulge out of their socket in shock.
"What? We don't even know what a herb looks like."
"Don't fret, I'll get you one. I need to use this against her badly, this might be my only chance and I'll kill you all if you mess up.
Implicating my Dad's health would be a start to implement my plan so make sure it's done!"
"Yes, My King!"
They all bowed.
"Call the chief maid for me immediately!"
They nodded and left.
I need her out of this palace as soon as possible so that it aches me to see her each passing day with my wolf howling excitedly at her scent.
For the moon goddess' sake, she can never be mine.
A disgusting abandoned rogue and Killer can never be mine.
The door clicked open and the chief maid entered.
"As from tomorrow stop cooking for the Queen!" I ordered without a blink
"Huh?" She gasped. "Did I do anything wrong?"
"Not really, I have something for you to do."
She nodded enthusiastically and bowed.
"It's risky but I'm willing to take the risk, don't worry. I want Zenevieva to prepare the queen's meal and serve her.
You're only adding a little wolf's bane syrup."
She gasped and dropped to her feet as tears clouded her eyes.
"Kill me instead, My King. I can't poison her please."
I smirked and stood up.
"Who said you were going to poison her?"
