A Breeder For The Hybrid King 44
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

KATHERINE As I stood there, my head wiped to a side, I held my burning cheek and the tenderness was like touching an open wound. My eyes welled up with tears and I could swear, I tasted the metallic tang of blood. I couldn’t look him in the eyes, not when the echoes of the slaps are still lingering in the air. “Take her inside.” Those three words were all he said before he stepped aside, and his men rushed towards me, hovering around me like leeches. “No! I need to see Marina. She left, I have to catch up with her!” I shrieked, struggling against their holds.They bundled me back inside, with me unable to lift a finger. “Open up! Get me out of here!” I slammed both fists against the door immediately after it was shut on my face. I continued and only stopped when my hands began to bleed. I’m so mad at myself right now. I didn’t think of considering her feelings and now she’s gone, and am left alone in my misery. I soon found myself before the mirror, my eyes fixated on the red ma

KATHERINE He’s ill? Somehow, that was unexpected. “You should go back inside. They are taking care of him.” Again, I was stopped, not allowed to go inside even after I had told him I needed to see him. At least, to take a look at his situation. I didn’t argue but instead of going back to my room, I stayed back and watched as everything happened. What scares me the most was the amount of doctors I’ve seen go in and come out. Which kind of made me upset. They have all been treating me like an outsider. Moreso, I saw the Hybrid king and most definitely still got hit by him not so long ago. In short, this is baffling. I waited so long I began to lose count, my legs were starting to ache and I was about reconsidering my decision to stay when the door opened and surprisingly, it was Eva coming out alongside the last set of doctors to go inside, Cassandra also standing by the door with a snarl directed at me. The more she goes on with this attitude of hers, the idle I know she is. She

KATHERINE “Just one.” I answered lowly, my tone laced with curiosity.“Then why is your scent masked?” Derek asked huskily.I became lost. So lost that I don’t understand him anymore nor any reason why he could be asking. Xavier is only mate I have ever had. Moreso, since I have been rejected by him, I’ve never come across another. Neither have I- since then- abored any thought my scent could be masked. Who would do that? “My scent isn’t.” I shook my head, zero percent certain of what I was saying. Somehow, a doubt is poking out a one corner of my mind. My scent could have been masked, by somehow who doesn’t want me to find my mate. Possibly? Or maybe not. I’m no one’s business. In fact, I’m nothing but an object of ridicule, that no one will want to have anything to do with. He huffed and then retreated away from me, getting out of the bed and fetching his jacket, which he flung over his shoulders, ready to leave the room. “Goodness, Derek. You’ve only just finished receiving

KATHERINE“I'm sorry. I just thought the question was unusual, especially since it came from you.” My eyes shifted away while he gave me a death stare. Although my blood boiled for the fact he seems to be hiding something from me. Something that’s important but he wouldn’t say to me, or reveal. “Unfortunately, you have no right to question me.” He gritted out, snapping at me and that was the end for that night. No one had to tell me before I left him alone. He needs his privacy and I’m not about to argue that with him. The next morning, I watched as Derek's eyes flicked lazily over the plates before him, his hands resting motionless on the table, whereas Eva hovered anxiously nearby, wringing her hands nervously as she watched him reject the first meal, then another. Somehow, the aromas wafting from the dishes did nothing to stir his appetite. I know he shouldn't see me here, but I was bored. And this is fun. I rephrase, he's fun to watch. "Please, king, you must eat something.
