CHAPTER ELEVEN

*

*

"Rene!"

Rene's head tilts up when Kyra walks into the tattered room, the tiny cramped storage room his mother used to stay.

Kyra halts, the putrid stench of decay and stale herbs is too strong for her to move further. Nausea trickles down her throat; She is revolted and disgusted by how Rene can sit comfortably on the moist, mouldy floor.

' Well, he is just as filthy as this dirty room, this place suits him just fine," She thinks to herself dismally and continues to stand by the door.

"You shouldn't have provoked Father openly; what were you thinking, talking back disrespectfully like that?"

Rene doesn't respond; he has several cracked ribs, and his arms are twisted abnormally from Aston's beating; strangely enough, it doesn't feel as painful as it looks. Rene wonders if it has anything to do with the mark on his neck.

"Disrespectful? My mother died because of them, you want me to say nothing?"

"You could have died, I barely managed to save you the last time!"

    CHAPTER TWELVE **"Argh!" Rene jerks awake when a basin of a bone-chilling cold liquid is splashed on his body. His eyes fly open, coughing violently, as he is momentarily breathless. Tyro and Hugo are glaring down at him and Rene already knows what is coming next; already accustomed to their bullying.Tyro yanks him from the wooden bed and Rene's weak body, which has been denied food for the last two days, threatens to collapse. "I don't remember anyone giving you permission to take some days off, are you still pretending to be injured?"Pretending? The scars on his body are quite obvious, but then again, they always find even the smallest faults to beat him up or prolong his starvation."Even if you pretend to be weak, you will still have to work like the rest of us, but you've been hiding here all day, don't you know that tonight is? You ought to be punished for slacking on your duties!" Hugo says, his palm harshly slapping Rene's face repeatedly. It's the Princess's marriage

    CHAPTER THIRTEEN **"Report," Lyrien's deep voice is low and impatient, Luca straightens to his feet. "The celebration is still ongoing, but everything is going exactly as we planned..." Luca produces the key to unclasp the thick chains around Lyrien's wrists and ankles, which have kept him chained to the walls.Lyrien's hard gaze settles briefly on the chains on the ground. He had put the shackles on for too long even though he could have easily freed himself. Hiding his strength had been necessary, the weaker they think he is, the better it will be. How easy it has been for the Akleri to fall under his scheme."Most of the Chiefs of the neighbouring clan are here today, attending the wedding,"A vicious smirk twitches on Lyrien's lips, His enemies, all in one place. This is even better than he had anticipated. His blood tingles with a raw dark excitement that he had not felt in a long time. Lyrien extends his hand, and Luca hastily hands him the curved cruel-looking sword. Lyr

    CHAPTER FOURTEEN **"Barbarians!"The goblet of wine splutters from Javier's hand, rolling to the ground, the animal fur below absorbing the soiling liquid.He becomes clear-headed instantly, grabbing his sword. "How...?!" He snarls at the wounded guard who has delivered this news to his chambers. "The private p_passage was opened, we have an insider!" The guard gasps, and Kyra, who just stepped into the room shivers, fear making her blood grow still.The secret passage, she had opened it with good intentions to let Rene escape, after she sabotaged his plans, she'd simply forgotten to lock it back. And now..."My Lord, they are killing everyone, there's no way we can win!" The guard yells at Javier who is already storming out of the room only to bump into Luca. "I told you nothing should go wrong__" Javier halts, suddenly seeing a distant glint in Luca's eyes; he's never seen such a cold, fierce look before. "Leave now or you're going to die, I'm saying this as your friend," "Y

    CHAPTER FIFTEEN **A pin-drop silence follows. All the warriors stop cheering. The air cackles with danger emitting from the dominant Alpha."I never wanted to mix my blood with a Savage's; I couldn't fuck a filthy thing; I killed her, so what? Was she related to you?" Aston's smug smirk vanishes when Lyrien suddenly stabs the sharp edge of the knife straight into his eye, earning a soul-shattering scream from Aston. Lyrien's lips sneered as though disgusted by this weakling Alpha who is starting to spew out curses at him Still holding the knife masterfully, Lyrien makes a brutal twisting movement to completely pluck it from its socket.The organ twirls to the ground with a slight splat sound. Aston's cries vibrate the ruined hall, his blood pouring continuously from the now empty socket. Lyrien does the same to his other eye, and a powerful kick sends Aston flying against the nearest wall; his groans of pain as he clutches the spot his eyes used to be is met with laughter from t

    CHAPTER SIXTEEN **"Everywhere is quiet, is it over?" Soral whispers, They had managed to escape from the castle, but the barbarians were lurking everywhere in these woods; Rene and Soral had seen hundreds of bodies of people trying to escape. Their lives brutally ended in a gruesome manner by the savages. The tiny space below the ground barely contains Rene and Soral, their muscles are painfully sore from being cramped up for long hours. Rene's eyelids are heavy with exhaustion; neither of them has closed their eyes a wink since last night. Rene is slightly confident as the hours go by that, they will not be found; this small hole used to be a storage for wine that has not been used in a long time. The earthy lid above them will completely shield them from anyone above. Soral sniffs in deeply, something is different about Rene's scent. It is stronger now. A blend of pheromones, pleasant ...Yet powerful, almost similar to an Alpha's scent oozes faintly from him. Soral's gaze

    CHAPTER SEVENTEEN **"You're also Jaron's bastard?" Lyrien spits out the words, filled with utter disgust, A twirp of disappointment that he refuses to acknowledge and finally, anger, knowing that his special bond, which should be shared with his unique chosen mate, has been given to this enemy. His eyes fixate on Rene's skinny form, his protruding collar bone that is exposed by his torn, saggy shirt; Lyrien blinks away unfeelingly; the welfare of the 'favourite' son of Jaron shouldn't be his concern. ' How did this barbarian know they'd been beneath? ' The electrifying grey eyes pierce into the very depths of Rene's soul. Now that this barbarian is neither in a cage nor in chains, the broad daylight makes him appear so much bigger... More frightening, like his most terrifying nightmare coming to life. "P_please," Rene stutters, his eyes watering with tears from the harsh grip of the barbarian on his hair which continues to sprinkle fires of pain throughout his skull."I'm just

    CHAPTER EIGHTEEN **Rene is anxiously confused when the thin material of his breeches fails to absorb more blood, and it ends up trickling to the ground. Strangely enough, he does not remember getting injured. His body feels dizzy, and his vision becomes blurry; just as his knees start to give way, he feels himself being swooped into strong arms; he is conscious of being lifted, but too tired to open his eyes. The familiar smell of pheromones suffocates his senses; he wants to sink his body closer to this warmth; Rene's eyes slowly flutter open, and he blinks rapidly, meeting the intense pair of gazes staring down at him. Dismay slurps up to his throat when he realizes that he is in the brute's arms, and he starts to struggle weakly. "Be still!" The sharp command earns a low whine from Rene, his body weakens with submission.Lyrien had watched Rene sway, his hand close around his waist to lift him up easily; the boy is underweight and frail, even fit an omega, but looking at hi

    CHAPTER NINETEEN * * Rene remains glued to the spacious bed inside the tent; the polluting noise outside has died down, and everywhere is now quiet.Most of the nobles were killed; only some were spared to become slaves. Eren may even be dead too, Rene thinks. All the royal bloodlines were used as sacrifice, the barbarians burning them as offerings; their torture methods were grotesque, and stomach-churning. Even though Rene shares no love lust with his brothers, seeing Aston die so cruelly had shaken up something within him, the crawling web of petrification so deeply woven in his chest. This pregnancy has saved him from being skinned alive or burnt like the rest of them. Rene certainly did not expect the heartless barbarian to care about a child who may turn out to be a useless omega like himself. Rene jerks up, startled when the tent flaps open, and several people enter, crowding the room. Their clothing attire instantly tells him that they are servants from the Dahome tr

    CHAPTER SEVENTY-FOUR**"What are you doing, omega!"Vidarr's dark eyes latch onto Soral's panicked ones as fierce as they can be, and embarrassment spreads through Soral with such fury that his cheeks redden. Caught in the act, Soral is too stunned to speak. His eyes unwillingly fall downward again,, and his lip drops open in an alarmed shriek when the massive organ which is pointing towards the roof continues to jerkrhythmicallyly, the tip oozing out pearly fluids. "I'm . . . I'm sorry!" Soral's lips wobble as he clenches them to fight back tears. "I didn't mean to make it a-abnormal""Abnormal?" Vidarr scoffs, the intense look is replaced by something different. . . A strangely dark emotion that Soral cannot read and yet he squirms uncomfortably beneath the scorching heat of it. "Indeed, you've made it abnormal, omega" Vidarr's amused gaze watches his omega's face intently, and surprise flares through him when Soral dramatically turns even more crimson; his large honeycomb eye

    CHAPTER SEVENTY-THREE * * A sound jerks Soral awake. It is a groan. His captor's groan. Soral sits up and turns to look at the barbarian who is lying beside him. Vidarr's severe breathing and the fire cackling are the only sounds in the room. His body is shaking vigorously, and he is mumbling in his sleep; the guttural sounds that escape his parted lips closely remind Soral of a wounded wild creature. The barbarian continues to toss and turn, while Soral watches with conflicted emotions. His captor is having a nightmare. Should he wake him? Sweat makes Vidarr's skin glisten, his murmurs grow louder, and Soral can almost make out what he is saying. "Rhona__No__Rhona, Please__ Please don't!" He gasps, his brows are tightened, and moistness gathers around his eyes. Soral feels as though it isn't just about the physical pain. So, this dominant Alpha can be vulnerable too? He is not the savage warrior at this moment, this powerful man looks deeply haunted. Soral finds

    CHAPTER SEVENTY-TWO * * “What?” Rene's breath shudders out of him, he can only gape openly at Lyrien. Lyrien’s hand slowly lifts, shaking as it traces Rene's cheek and the tears running down his face like a pure crystal stream. His thumb brushes over the moist as his dark eyes trace Rene's features, as though committing his face to memory. “I already decided that when you wake up, I'm going to let you freely choose whatever you want to, I won't interfere with your life anymore." Free? Rene's stunned expression is replaced by a misty rage that floods through his eyes. He smacks off Lyrien's hand from his face, as a sharp pang of acrid resentment courses through him. "You won't let me die and wither. . .?" Rene sneers, temper rising again, and exertion causes his heart to beat even faster until black spots swim around his eyes, but he refuses to faint. "You are going to let me go. Such nice words!" He hisses, a hysterical laughter bubbles from his dry parched throat. "Is

    CHAPTER SEVENTY ONE * * Black. Blur Black. . . Then, blur again. He blinks weakly to clear the haze in his vision and then his brows twitch slightly, his mind growing foggy with confusion. It takes no more than a second for the memories to attack, all of it, each painful piece, stabbing his numb heart and forcing it to skip a beat. Disbelief . . . Disappointment. . . Anger Why? Isn't he supposed to be . . .dead? He doesn't feel any physical pain, his body is numb, yet his heart pounds uncontrollably with dismay. The familiar surroundings of the large tent propels Rene to shut his eyes, willing the once merciful darkness to return. He had been on the brink of sliding away. . . On the edge of oblivion, and he had been ready. So why does this cruel fate decide to give him a second chance? Rene shudders from a mild tingling sensation that travels across his neck and down to his spine. Something is wrong. Within him, Rene cannot place it, yet he feels as though s

    CHAPTER SEVENTY * * The wolf jumps in the air, its canines bared viciously, preparing to feast on its frightened prey. Soral's eyes shut close, anticipating the pain of being shredded apart. His teeth sink hard against his bottom lip. A second blows past like a soft wind. No pain comes. Maybe he is already dead? A loud crashing sound jerks his eyes open. Shocked and too numb to react, he can only stare at the sight in front of him. It takes several seconds for him to realize that he is not imagining things. Vidarr. He is present in the flesh! Soral watches with a mixture of fascination and morbid shock as Vidarr struggles with the large black wolf on the ground for a few moments, grasping the beast by its thick neck. "Watch out!" Soral lets out a blood-curdling shriek when another wolf jumps high in the air to attack Vidarr. The Alpha and the wolves continue to struggle, and Soral doesn't think he will stand a chance against these scary creatures. Soral wants to ru

    CHAPTER SIXTY-NINE**Soral jerks awake from the dreadful dream.He exhales raggedly, the nightmare felt so real, where the Dahome barbaric leader had gotten to Rene and wrecked havoc on the small village. Thankfully, it has only been a dream. The morning starts slowly, and Soral grudgingly watches the Alpha move about. Some minutes later, Soral is served the meal, which consists of dried fruits, smoked meat and some vegetables. He meets Vidarr's watchful gaze and instantly looks away, shuddering inwardly. Soral has no appetite, but he also has no wish to upset his captor, he does not want a repeat of what happened. His face flushes deeply with memory, it had been nearly impossible to fall asleep. Those long torturous hours during which was forced to be so close to the barbarian, and the way those muscular arms of his had drapes possessively around his waist all night long.Soral nibbles the food slowly, fully conscious of the opposite eyes searing into him. Just as the night b

    CHAPTER SIXTY EIGHT **Lyrien burst into the tent, his heart racing with a mix of fear and urgency. His eyes lock on Rene's restless form instantly. His face is contorted into a grimace of pain, perspiration drenching his pale skin; as he turns wildly on the bed, Amala and a maid struggle to hold him down. The sound of his ravaged breathing and the cracking sound of burning incense permeates the air. "Get away, no don't touch it, it hurts!" Rene screams again, shoving Amala with his flailing hands just as Lyrien join them in two hurried strides."He won't allow me to touch the wound on his neck..." Amala says helplessly.Lyrien's eyes narrow at Rene, who appears to be in another shuddering episode of pain. The yellow and green inflammation on his neck is already worse than it was a few hours ago, and the infection has begun to spread all across the whole area of his neck."If it spreads to his chest. His heart may stop beating. . . " Amala says, "At this point, it's up to his wil

    CHAPTER SIXTY-SEVEN * * Lyrien knows that some of his warriors do not agree with his choice of camping in the middle of nowhere, but when it comes to what's important, Lyrien cannot risk his mate's life by travelling in his critical state. He has already informed Haesir to lead most of their troop back to their settlement. Lyrien's hand reaches to touch the already-healed spot on his forehead where Rene had attacked him with the bowl, and he scoffs, his lips twitching slightly. His omega has been the one who escaped with the enemy and even tried to sever their bond. Yet, he still behaves with a brazen lack of guilt, acting with an air of innocence which Lyrien finds unconvincing. Those wide hazel orbs which have been pleading with him only a moment ago and willing to do anything to appease him are now shrouded with a stubborn hate-filled glint. . . "You burned down half of the world just to search for him. You finally got him, yet, you don't seem any better," Haesir remarks,

    CHAPTER SIXTY-SIX * * They ride for what seems like hours with the burning village behind them. Rene's thighs are numb, his butt sore, the muscular arms wrapped around him is too tight, crushing his ribs. His whole body aches and his throat feels scratched from dehydration. He feels particularly weak, the wound in his neck throbbing slowly. Yet, no complaints leave his mouth. Words are not needed, it's unlikely that the Brute will listen to him anyway. His tired eyes flutter close as his head falls limp against his captive's broad chest. The moment his omega's head collapses on his chest, Lyrien feels the burning hotness of his skin. "Rene!" Two fingers tap Rene's chin. No response comes. "We take a break, set the camp!" Lyrien orders the warrior to halt. He scoops Rene's unconscious form in his arms and jumps down from the horse, for the first time, he notices Rene's red flushed skin, his teeth chattering with cold despite the scorching heat of the midday sun.
