Chapter 141
Reign’S POV
“King of my life” I tease as I seductively walk over to him.
Melissa, Kylie and I planned to have a girls’ night tonight but Hardin doesn’t seem to be okay with it. It’s almost ten pm and I’ve been begging him since dinner at seven pm. He doesn’t want me to go.
He’s a naughty Alpha.
“Reign I still can’t believe you would put on a transparent nightie that exposes your body beneath, walk seductively towards me and then ask me to let you go spend the night somewhere else. You very well know what your body does to me babe, what kind of wicked game is this?” He Laments and I’m tempted to laugh.
“It’s no wicked game. I just want to have a girl’s night in Kylie’s room that’s just a few doors away, that’s all. It’s been a while”
“Go tomorrow”.
“That’s what you said yesterday”
“Go never!”
“Babe”
“Love, come on, I would go mad if I don’t have you in my arms tonight. Please, I have so many plans for us tonight. There’s a lot of things I want us to do”
“We can still do them tomorrow, babe, come on. Don’t be naughty”
“I love you Reign”
“And I love you too Hardin, but this has got nothing to do with me spending the night with the girls”
“Go at midnight”
“Really now? They will be asleep by then. We have to discuss all night, it’s already ten pm” I whine as I pout my lips like five year old and he exhales heavily, clearly frustrated.
He should know me by now, once I decide I’m gonna do something, I’m gonna do it at all cost. He should know that about me by now.
“Alright then…” He finally gives up in a sad tone. “You can go and have your fun.”
“Now I feel like you are sending me away”
“My God Reign please don’t start! You wanted to go, I have given you permission to do so. What then is your problem?”
“You… you… seem mad” I say naughtily as I snake my arms around his neck from behind. He’s sitting upright on bed and the look on his face just breaks my heart. Even if I leave now, I won’t have a good time with those girls because I’ll keep thinking about him.
Gah!
Hardin!
“Babe, I promise, I can hold up for tonight, just go and have fun”
“Are you sure you are okay with this?”
“Of course I’m not, but I don’t want to be selfish either. You also need to have fun”ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
“How about you join us?”
“Really now? Did you just ask me to do that?” He asks with zt frown and I chuckle in amusement.
“I was just teasing you”
“I am serious honey, go on and have fun”
“For real?”
“Yeah, go on”
“Thanks bb, you are the best! I love you” I say planting sweet kisses all over his face and neck.
“Reign I swear if you keep doing this, I’m going to change my mind”
“Ugh! No way” I jump down from the bed.
“You are not getting out of this room in that, put on some clothes” He instructs with a jealous tone.
“Yes sir!” I rush into the closet to put on a more proper pyjamas which is a trouser and white singlet.
I can’t wait to…
“What!!!” I hear Hardin scream from the living room and I immediately dash out of the closet to go meet him.
“Babe what’s wrong?”
“We have been ambushed Reign, quick! Put on your clothes, someone needs to protect the pups” He says panicking
“I will do just that”
“Good and babe, please be careful out there”
“I will and you too” I say blowing him a quick kiss and immediately, he takes off.
Without a second thought, I rush into the closet once more and put on a pair of jeans and t-shirt at the speed of light.
Once I’m all dressed up, I dash out of the room and the first people I go check on are Kylie and Melissa.
“You girls okay?” I ask panicking and they both look at me confused.
“Is everything alright?” Kylie asks and that’s when I understand that they have no idea of what is going on outside.
“You girls stay in here and lock both doors, do not open the door for anyone unless I mind link you to do so, is that clear?”
“Reign what’s going on?” Melissa asks alarmed.
“Seems like we have been ambushed”
“No way”
“Yes way, that’s why I need you girls to stay in here, quietly if I may add. Your brother is out there trying to make sure the others are doing okay and you know how worked up he will get if you guys don’t obey and stay safe”
“I promise we won’t leave the room”
“That’s my girl. I will take leave now”
“Reign take care okay”
“I will, thanks” Then I walk out of the bedroom. As I run along the long corridor that leads to the stair case, I let my fingers transform into paws and my eyes become yellow.
Lyla is about to take over.
I can’t wait to break bones and snap necks.
“Not now Lyla, let’s…” I stop talking when I get a strange smell and footsteps approaching. I quickly slid into the nearest room and peep through the door and to my greatest shock, I see Yves sneaking across the corridor.
“What is she doing here?” I whisper to my myself as she walks on and that’s when it dawns on me that she is probably here to get that staff.
Smart bitch!
Once she gets into Hardin’s office, I step out of the room and follow her.
I can’t wait to see the look on her face when I stop her from taking it.
I walk over to the door and watch in fascination as she tries to pick up the staff no avail. She tries yet again but it seems like it’s too heavy for her to raise and I can’t help but wonder why.
“Wonders they say she never end, will it?” I ask sarcastically and she abruptly turns to face me with a horrified look on. “Busted! Aren’t we?” I ask in a mocking tone as I take calculated steps towards her.
She tries to run but with my super speed, stopping her and pinning her to the wall is something I do in a matter of seconds!
“And where do you think your going?”
“Let me go!” She cries in agony as she tries to free herself from my grip to no avail.
Even if she tries for the next century, she won’t be able to do that.
“So, your darling Alpha talked you into stealing the staff, isn’t he?”
“He didn’t have to talk me into it, I volunteered because I will do anything to bring you down!”
“Oh, fierce aren’t we? Sorry to burst your bubble honey, but you are not going to get that staff, not now not ever!”
“Let’s watch and see”
“I would so love to snap your head right now, but you are still a child of the Wall street pack, you are still my subject..’
“I am not your subject!” She denies in anger as she tries to push me off but I don’t bulge.
“Now that’s it, time’s up! Let’s go meet that pathetic Alpha of yours and his dumb allies” I hold her by the arm and aggressively pull her out of the office.
She struggles in vain to wiggle herself out of my grip.
The entire castle is so calm, like nothing is happening outside and it amazes me.
Once we both get outside, that is when I realize how hot things have been. Everyone is either running or fighting or screaming and it’s a very unpleasant sight.
The Elementals seem to be having so much fun as they battle with their powers.
Kol has made sure nobody stands still with the mini tornado he is creating and the earth Elemental keeps shoving stones at people.
“Let me go!” Yves scream and the moment Alpha Lance hears his mate’s voice, he let’s go of the soldier he had held captive and takes long strides towards us but before he can get close enough, Hardin appears from nowhere and stands between us.
“Stop right there” Hardin commands. And immediately, he stops on his tracks.
“Tell her to let go of my mate!”
“Not after you tell us what she was doing in my chambers!”
“Command your soldiers to stop else I’ll snap her neck here and now, mind you Lance, I’m not bluffing!” I warn and this time around I change my eye color to blood red and grab Yves by the neck.
“Stop, every one retreat!” He calls out and immediately, his soldiers stop fighting and stand still in a group.
Alpha Ralph’s soldiers do the same and he walks over to us, looking deadly, but that doesn’t scare me at all!
“Let her go!” He commands.
“Make me”
“Did you all honestly think it will be so easy to get into my pack and steal the staff of Edification?”
“No, we did not think it was easy, we just didn’t think it was impossible either”
“But now you just saw that it is impossible”
“That’s what you think. We will never give up until we have that staff in our possession”
“I like your confidence Lance”
“Why? Thank you. Now will you hand her over to me?” He asks sternly and Hardin smiles as he walks over to me.
“Is this an Alpha meeting?” Kol ask as he joins us and I can’t help but smile as I hand Yves over to Hardin who holds her arm and turns to face the other Alphas.
“And why aren’t we killing her, if that was Reign in his arms, he would have killed her already” Kol spits out and give him a gentle punch on the arm.
“You know, if I was the one in this position, if you had my mate like this in your hands, you wouldn’t hesitate to snap her neck and end her life and even burn her body to ashes, would you?” Hardin asks in a quiet but intimidating tone and I can see Alpha Lance swallow dryly.
Honestly, a werewolf’s greatest nemesis seeing his mate in a near death situation in which there is nothing he can do to help her.
I can onlh imagine what he is going through right now.
“I know the kind of man you are Lance, you are cruel, greedy, selfish and immoral and I’m nothing like you, that’s why…” He looks at Yves who is now shedding tears and then pushes her over to Alpha Lance who takes her into his arms and engulfs her in a very emotional hug.
I am tempted to smile at the affection they are both displaying.
“I am not like you, I don’t hurt Shewolves, on the contrary, o protect them. That’s why I’m giving her to you unharmed.” He takes two steps closer to them and Kol does same.
“Quit this game Alphas, you are never going to get that staff , not even in your wildest imaginations”
“You might think you have won Alpha Hardin, but you haven’t! We will be back!” Alpha Ralph fires back and Hardin just smiles.
“And I will be waiting!”
“Let’s get out of here” Aloha Lance orders and they all retreat into the woods.
“So, can I know why we are letting them go?” Kol asks annoyed
“I have no idea either”
“Really?”
“Yeah! I think you should go and make sure Diana is doing okay” Hardin says as he holds my hand and takes me away.
Honestly I don’t know why he did what he just did, but on the other hand, he is Alpha I believe he very well knows why he did what he just did.
