KATHERINE 'A charge of raising her hand on the Hybrid King.' I burned with guilt and panic as Eva was being taken into the same cell I was just brought out of. Leaving me with Derek, the king. I couldn't look me in the eye. I'm curious as to why he has intentionally got between us just to take the hit. Luckily Eva stopped herself just in time, otherwise I don't want to think of how her head would have been rolling on the ground by now. “Are you going to form up another lie again and join your loyal servant in the cell?” As the words left his mouth, my heart thumped faster than it should. I have always failed to handle myself around him every time. “No. I'm sorry.” I halted slowly and casted my head down, tears almost streaming out of my eyes as I wondered what life I was living. The house felt even more lifeless after Eva's imprisonment. I would barely touch my food, pushing it around my plate as my mind wandered, wondering when she would be released. The days dragged on in a
23KATHERINEI didn't expect her to be out of the cell any time soon.Of course I feel reassured since I can finally get rid of the guilty feeling in me. At the same time I feel disappointed but what she had done. I stepped back away from her even as she came closer. Does she know she has been caught by me? Probably not. “I'm glad to you're out of the cell.” I replied bitterly. On some other day I would have stayed longer with her but it was torture staying two minutes with her now.She nodded and I was supposed when she grinned and walked past me, to place a knock on Derek's door. I continued walking, not stopping until I have reached my room. If I had told the hybrid King Eva has something to do with the lost jacket, I'm sure that would have increased her term in cell and she wouldn't have been here to grin at me. I know what she's doing. She can try to act like what happened between us never existed and I am ready ready to play that game with her too. I just feel disappointed i
KATHERINE My heart pounded immediately as he approached, the clock striking seven and my eyes going wide out of their sockets. I waited anxiously for him to reach me, my heart plummeting back into its ribcage as I glanced at the wall clock. How could I have missed the time? For goodness sake, it's so ridiculous how I feel the time was a bloody cheater and could have waited for me. Till I was done thinking? I groaned reluctantly as his warm hand caught me by the neck and spun me around. I ended up locked between his arms, my back against the wall. I can't even remember the time I stood up. What was going on with me? It's so terrifying how he's making me loose my senses. “Another excuse again? The wall clock wasn't there this time? Or you're so done with the routine you want to die and give up?” He pulled away to take in my face in the small lightness of the dark night, and I moaned, my head titling to the other side as I felt his hand slip under my dress. “Answer me!” He growled
KATHERINEShock.Was what I felt at first. Followed by confusion. Lyra wasn't lying. I was summoned by the council of Alphas and it was a miracle how I could stand before them without wobbling. I wasn't told why because Lyra herself doesn't know. I was given a seat in their circle, and when I met the Hybrid King's eye, I quickly looked away. I'm sure he knows why I am here. “That is my breeder. If you have any questions in which you had like to ask, she's here to answer each and every thing. I am going to have an heir soon and at this stage, whether or not you all choose to be patient is none of my business.” I heard Derek's roar right behind me where he is seated. None of them retorted. More like I've grown known it the Hybrid's rudeness and it wasn't a new thing to them anymore. Poor them. “What is your name?” One of them sighed as he stroke his white hair. I don't know about Alphas but this particular man seem to have been ruling his pack for a long time now. Now that I took t
KATHERINE “What the fuck!” I screamed the loudest I have ever had to. She also flinched back, apparently startled. What is she doing here? How did she get her?! Before I could go ahead and question her, a very pissed voice and I was reminded of the reality. Derek! “Why the hell did you just scream?!” It took a few seconds for his question to register in my head. I looked away from Eva who has her hands together pleading for me to keep her secret. “I thought that was a ghost.” I placed my hand over my chest, gasping and pretending to be so scared. “Do you want to take a look?” I flashed him a killer smile and gushed. “Take your leave, Katherine.” He massaged his temple, as if sensing a headache. I didn't argue with him but I remained silently, unknowing gawking at him. He's so good looking it pisses me off sometimes. For someone so grumpy and arrogant, he should look exactly as the devil but here he was, looking so dashing like an angel who fell from heaven, his face enough sigh
KATHERINEI have spent a lot of time on earth but the past two months was one to remember. Derek wouldn't judge me on bed, if anything my body was like a drug and he's the addict. There's no longer a routine for our sex life anymore, I either gets called to his room or he appears in my room when I least expected like a knight in shining armor. I snorted as I unscrew the lid of my drink. That doesn't mean he became any less arrogant or grumpy. It depends on his mood how less angered he gets. I've spent a lot of time with Lyra too, even if Beta Edward still stand firm on his words. What he relaid to me the Hybrid's said goes this way; “Everyone deserves a second chance at life. Only if Eva messes up again will she be permanently removed as Katherine's assistant. But then she shouldn't think she would get the chance to meet her offspring once she tampers with Katherine's health or chances to produce me my pubs!” Right, I also couldn't believe he could make such a sexy-dangerous thr
KATHERINEFuck. That scared me. My heart almost lept out of my chest. “Is there even a need for that? There's a tiny chance I can get pregnant before the two weeks runs out.” That however didn't stop me from saying the truth. I understand nothing is impossible but something that didn't happen since three months will take a lot of miracle if it finally occur at the last two weeks of the ultimatum. “Let's keep hoping, Ms.” The lady passed me a smile and it was then I took her in. Again, the dread from earlier rose back up my throat at the mere sight of her. She's so gorgeous I wonder why Derek doesn't seem so interested in her. He has been silent over since. His jaw would stick often whenever our eyes met. He's possibly getting impatient. For a moment I fell silence, remembering that day he bought me. Since I was a virgin, he must have thought there was a high chance for him to get want he wants quickly through me. “You go back to your room now.” His voice reached me and I relea
KATHERINE “She's pregnant.” When she voiced, a mixture of shock and surprise was what my face was twisted in. I couldn't understand how I was feeling, my heart that attempted to lunch out of my chest had taken back its position. My mouth was wide open too. “Are you sure?” I asked, totally ignoring everyone in the room as I looked at Doctor Melanie for an assurance. “Yes, you are pregnant. Tests don't lie.” Her grip tightened on my hands, a serious expression on her face and my eyes widened in shock, once again. This reality was totally unbelievable. I looked behind and watched as colors drained from Derek's dumbfounded face, he's probably as astounded as I was. “That's a good news.” His voice resounded in the room and he stepped forward. I noticed the excited glint that ran across his face as he shook hands with the doctor. I stared at him, feeling quite uneasy as everyone rambled on, equally as excited as I was but I couldn't show it. I felt some kind of guilt prick my skin wh
