KATHERINE If I heard him well, he means I had allowed myself to be ridiculed- the Cassandra incident- with a royal blood in my stomach. Which to him means; I wasn’t the one who had been trampled upon but his child, something he clearly disliked.How did he know? He wasn’t home during my argument with Cassandra and definitely wasn’t around when she locked and died me up either. If there was surveillance cameras in here, I would have known. Could it be there’s someone in hiding report all of my activities to him. Gosh, I knew this was going to happen. I was firm with Cassandra thinking that will get her off my neck but it only made her more persistent and now, here I am again. “It won’t happen again, I promise.” I stammered a reply, holding tightly unto my string of hope. Not like he's ever heard any pleas of mine but there's always a first time. Lying won’t solve anything, since he already knows the truth. It will only escalate things. “Even if you can’t fight for yourself, you sh
KATHERINE “What are you doing—” I cussed, voice shaky then I stopped midway. There’s a high chance it’s king Derek but this wasn’t his cologne. Additionally, he has never been this touchy with me. My eyes practically widened instantly, and my self defense kicked in. I didn’t give the person the time to prepare before I struck him underneath with my leg and I heard him scream. I swirled around. I wasn’t wrong, he’s a man that’s not Derek but… a stranger. “What did you just do?” He growled at me and I laughed, shrugging nonchalantly, “I gave you what you deserve.” He must be out of his mind if he thinks he’s going toy with me and I had keep mute. All my life, I have never seen where a stranger goes around randomly hugging women, except the person is a big psychopath. Which he certainly looks are. “I thought you were Cassandra, damn.” One minute, he was holding tightly onto his crotch that I just dealt with, and the next he laughed, scrutinizing me with a huge annoyance spelt out
KATHERINE From what I see, he could lose his breath any time soon. I can see how much pain he’s in before Derek finally let go of him, and he fell on the floor, breathless. I looked across and saw Cassandra’s mouth agape just before she blurted, “Derek! What did you just do to my fiancé?!”Fiancé? I turned to Derek, whom rather than looking at anyone, was glaring openly at rude-jerk guy who was now up his feets, stepping backward and patting off the dust off his body. “What is he doing here?” Rather than answering Cassandra, he blatantly stared at her fiancé and not that he noticed. He was almost hiding behind Cassandra’s back, in what seems like fear.“I called him over. Do you seriously have to hurt him, that too in front of this darn omega?” Cassandra groaned, the last word filled with disdain. This time I can’t help but frown, hiding back a retort from falling off my mouth. I shouldn’t be in their business. Standing here and pretending like I heard nothing is the ideal soluti
KATHERINE I have nothing to pack. I own nothing. And it would have been easy to escape. But I told Marina, and she screamed so loud she almost ratted me out. I immediately regretted my decision, here and there. “You know what Marina? I now regret ever confiding in you about my plan.” I glared holes at her face, hosting myself away from the wall I was leaned on, I ran my fingers into my hair as I paced uncontrollably. “Why? Because you were almost caught? I know you’re not in your right senses right now. Abuse me all you want but I won’t let you leave and I will willingly call the guards on you if you try to escape behind my back too.” She remained unfazed. I know she means everything she’s saying. Five minutes ago when she yells in utter disbelief as I told her of my plan, two guards had bounced in and with so much whispers in persuasion, she succumbed and lied to them it was nothing. I won’t be so surprised if she decided not to take my back this time. “The Hybrid king is extre
KATHERINE Will Marina be fine? I have never felt this much guilt in my life. Thinking about how I could have listened to her and not try to escape, I badly want to cuss myself out. Now here I was, locked in my room, each and every windows locked from the outside, with no single ray of light sighted. While I was been bundled back inside, I got a glimpse of Marina receiving treatment yet I’m still so worried. Nothing can save me this time. Derek will have me dealt with and I hope, when the time comes for it, Marina will be excluded. She doesn’t deserve to suffer with me.I alone should bear my cross. The next morning, I was fast asleep on the bare floor when I heard the creaking of the door. Light shone inside as the person entered, walking past me to let open the windows. I scrambled up my feet immediately, then I saw it’s Eva. Derek sent someone sooner than I expected. Could it be Marina has recovered and it’s time for the judgement? I don’t know what to think. “Good morning.
KATHERINE He’s here. His eyes solemnly fixated on me. I got even more scared when I felt Marina clutch onto my arm, using me as a cover. “Are you done?” King Derek asked out of nowhere, his eyes trailing over me, stopping when he reached my face. I rushed to look at Marina who shook her head unnoticeably at me and my pupils dilated in answer. “No.” Eyes on the floor, I finally responded hoping he didn’t see the earlier gesture between Marina and I. I don’t want to go to him just yet. I don’t want to be under his watch yet either. I don’t want to hear the repercussion of my disobedience nor do I do want any punishment for it, but a person can only wish. It’s never going to happen. Things doesn’t work that way.“I don’t care. I want you behind me as I walk away.” He answered huskily with a sarcastic snort and turned away from me, exiting the room. I turned towards Marina who looked just as scared. Giving her a reassuring nod of head, I quickly moved away from her and out of the
KATHERINE One week gone and nothing has happened.He hasn’t been home but arrived last night, and to my dismay, not a word came from his mouth when he saw me walk past. Or maybe he has nothing to say to me. Perhaps, I’m free. Just like that? “He’s not stopping you from coming out of the room. Trust me, I already pleaded with him and I’m certain you have nothing to do with what happened any more. You’re really going to keep staying indoor?” I struggled to convince Marina who has had her head shoved under the bed sheet for the past thirty minutes now. Only when she’s certain of Derek’s departure in the morning would she step out of the room. She’s scared and I’m not going to blame her. I'm not any better. I have been avoiding him like a total plague also, until I ran out of luck and saw him yesterday. I might feel unlucky all the time but now I know the goddess has always been there for me, even when I thought I have been abandoned. What else can explain an emergency suddenly happe
KATHERINE I have a lot of questions. Many things to say but despite that, I stood dumbfounded and remained standing before the door, refusing to set my feet inside his bedroom and witness the event. Beta Edward must be feeling ashamed of himself because instead of him to keep persuading me, he just sighed, turned around and left, leaving me standing. I wonder why I wasn’t moving from the same spot I’ve been for the past five minutes. I convinced myself I shouldn’t be hearing the disgusting moans echoing from the walls but still, I did. My head was held high but I was breaking from the inside. Not because of what was happening but how cruel he must be to summon me, to watch him bang some girl. No way. I’m not staying here. Before I could leave, I swallowed hard after the door was flung open. “Are you so deaf you didn’t hear that you should come in?” A lady covered in nothing but a lacy bra and pants questioned angrily. “I don’t want to.” I responded softly as I turned around
