CHAPTER 106
ZENEVIEVA
After having a sumptuous breakfast with the Queen, Kyle decided to steal the moment and take my breath away with his presence.
I can't believe how much I've missed him till now. I regretted the fact that he had to come in the Queen's presence.
I could see the longing in his eyes to engulf me that moment but he had to compose himself painfully as he bowed before the both of us and flashed me his sexy smile.
"Kyle! It's a pity you came late. Let me order breakfast for you." The Queen gestured to him and he shook his head.
"That won't be necessary, Luna. I'm here for something else but I'm glad to see her hale." He said, flashing a smile at me.
"Yeah, she woke up yesterday during the full moon. I guess the Moon goddess really wanted to bless her with her consciousness."
She chuckled and smiled while he nodded, his eyes not leaving mine.
A pang of guilt washed through me as I remembered the incident with Tyson.
Screw me!
How could I even look at him with a straight face when I….I don't even know what I did.
Kyle and I liked each other so much but we never described what we were. I had sex with my mate which was a normal thing but I'm feeling like shit and can't even stare right at his face right now.
How would he feel if he ever finds out?
"You're here for Tyson right? Please get to work immediately, call the elders, the head of the clan and all the members. What exactly is going to be his punishment? His dad is still unconscious in that state because of the silly prank he pulled."
The Queen emphasized and I gasped.
"Because he's the king, it's just going to be a few whips to the public to learn a heavy lesson but the law demands that they are stripped naked to be flogged or they get banished." He said casually and I gasped.
"Tyson is going to be flogged in public?" I asked and he shrugged.
"Yeah, why? You look bothered." He blurted out disappointedly and I shook my head.
"No, don't misunderstand me. I'm just surprised that he will have to willingly allow that." I bit my lips.
"He doesn't have a choice, he banished you with the king's authority plaque and took back his word randomly, he accused you for something you never did, that's the worst sacrilege ever."
Kyle stated and I nodded, I know he's reacting this way because I wasn't banished.
He badly imposed that on me even though I felt it was wrong, I understand his pain. I would have felt ten times worse.
The Queen stood up and I sighed in relief, "I'll get prepared immediately, just inform Tyler to make Tyson come out immediately. I'll be there myself." She turned to me.
"You need to rest Zenevieva, you just got up "
I nodded at her while she strides out slowly, the moment the door slammed behind; Kyle yanked my body towards me in a comforting hug and kissed my hair.
"I'm so sorry!"
He murmured breathlessly and I just enjoyed the comfort of being in his arms.
"Are you okay, are you hurt? What the heck happened to you, I was literally going insane."
He rambled on and I hugged him tightly.
"I've missed you." I mumured on his shoulders and he sighed.
"Damn! I thought I won't see you again. Tell me, what happened? Who hurt you?" He was keen on knowing the truth.
"I wish I knew." I sighed sadly and disentangled from him and he frowned.
"What do you mean by that?" He asked.
"I couldn't see the person's face, it was masked when I came out from the restroom." I said trying to connect the scene that happened.
"But why-"
"It's okay Kyle" I cut him off "I'm okay now. You shouldn't keep the Queen waiting, go and do your business."
He nodded and swallowed.
"Here's not safe for you Zenevieva, I'll drag you out forcefully from this pack if anything hurts you again!" He said sternly with facts and I pressed my lips tightly without saying and he sighed before taking a step out.
I feel even worse right now, It's as if I've done something so bad to hide it from him.
I walked out of the dining room and strolled to my room when I sighted the King's room.
My heart churned immediately and tears burned my eyes.
I swallowed and took a step backwards to his room and opened the door.
There he was, he was fast asleep in sickness.
His skin had gone pale all of a sudden and I wondered if it was because of what Tyson did. However I'm not sure Tyson would give his father a wolf's bane or Poison. He had explained that it was an empty container, or was it herbs?
Why the hell is he so down? I guess it was excess worry and a rise in his blood pressure?
I hissed at myself for even worrying about him.
I can't believe it!
I can't believe he was that King that gave orders for my parents to be. I'm fated to his son who also gave me a double dose of hell and now he's lying here helplessly.
I should kill him too right, My parents will be proud of me wherever I am for avenging their death but why is my heart so heavy?
Why am I feeling sorry for him?
I swallowed hard and walked out quickly only to see Tyler standing at the door.
"Are you okay?" He gasped on seeing me and I nodded.
Why are you crying?"
"I don't know, maybe it's because of the king's state."
I lied and he shook his head
"Yeah,it's sad, right. He's not responding to treatments, I wonder who was treating him those times he was able to walk on his own. You need to see the happiness in everyone's eyes but now, it's back to square zero. I feel like he's losing it anytime soon." He explained and stared at the door to his room with pity.
I bit my lips hard and nodded.
"It's sad "
"You still don't know the person who hurt you?" He insisted and searches my eyes as if the truth was there.
"I don't, I'm sorry. You guys are really trying to help but I'm just clueless. The face was masked." I was utterly frustrated as to why I don't know a thing.
"I understand, have you seen Kyle? He was.."
He scoffed at me and continued.
"I guess you've seen him after all, you won't be blushing like that." He raised his brows and I shook my head.
"I'm not!" I reproached him and he nodded.
"Yeah, I know. I'll be back."He said but I held his arm firmly.
"I'll come with you." I told him sternly.
"Are you sure?" He asked and frowned.
"Mm..Tyson would be getting his punishment, I can't wait to see the look on his face. I want to tease him."
I smirked and he chuckled.
We both walked down gisting about what happened during the pack festival when Marcella approached us like an angry mad woman.
"How dare you Tyler!"
She screamed but Tyler didn't budge, he remained stoic.
"Are you really going to let Tyson be flogged publicly?" She asked with a very bitter expression.
"Do you want to join him?" Tyson asked sarcastically and he shook her head with contempt.
"Jeez! You're his Beta for crying out loud. You should protect him from everything, don't you know that words will get out all over the pack as the king of Mudville being punished for something minimal." She yelled.
"It's not minimal, he abused the power of the royal plaque and deceived everyone. The only worried person here should be the Queen but she seems totally fine " Tyson blurted and she sneered at me.
"You don't expect this witch to be sad when Tyson is going to be smacked!!" She yelled in fury. "I'm totally disappointed in you, you couldn't have been trained as a beta if your duties were going to be useless!" She blasted out and that seemed to like Tyler up.
"Watch your mouth Marcella!" He seethed.
"No, watch your back Tyler. You shouldn't get in the wrong hands so you won't regret it later. As for you Zenevieva, don't think that this is over, I'll make sure you pay bitterly for all the mess you've caused in this family. Don't think you can come
from nowhere and stir reactions and results as you like, as long as I'm alive…I won't let you win!"
She thundered and walked out.
