Chapter 11

'Answer the question Magnus, what is the difference between a man and a woman? A paid of organs?" Her joke makes all the soldiers laugh, they have always known the Queen to be a very funny person, 'cat got your tongue Magnus?" She smiles at him as she reaches the bottom,
'And who are you to interfere in this matter Octavia?" He snorts at her,
'I am the Queen of this Kingdom and Arcadia is my daughter!! Without me you wouldn't have built this Kingdom to where it is, show me some respect!" She commands it and there is a chill in the atmosphere, 'she doesn't want your lame alpha, she would marry who she wants to marry and be happy with who she wants to be happy with." She stresses the last part for Magnus to know that she doesn't regret her actions. She doesn't regret Xerxes.
'You let your women run wild, giving them too much power, that's your mistake your majesty." Czar rolls his eyes,
'Wolves like you fear unnecessarily, if you're as strong as you say you are, or your master is as strong as you say he is then he shouldn't fear anyone so much that he would try to limit the person." She smirks at Czar, getting him stuck between a rock and a hard place, 'and you Magnus, I expected better from you, you want to give our only child to someone you don't even know, have you met him? Do you know the kind of person he is?"
'She is my daughter and I will do with her as I please, unless she isn't my daughter." His response make eyes turn to the Queen,
'She is also my daughter, and I won't let you make a wrong decision in her life." She gives the best response before turning to Czar, 'tell your master that my daughter has rejected him, and unless he can prove himself then she wants nothing to do with him, and if he wants to fight then he should bring himself here. The door is that way." She points te exit.
Czar says nothing but the look of anger is enough to know what he would tell alpha Mace, there was going to be a war very soon. And the Queen has initiated it.
'You're a mad woman Octavia!! Do you know what you have done?!!" He screams at his so called wife.
'I do, I have started this war, and I have accelerated your demise. I hope you can defend yourself Magnus, you're going to need it." She turns to Xerxes and he nods,
'Arcadia, meet me at the training grounds, there's something I need to teach you." He days something with his eyes and she nods,
'Very well master, that good for nothing just wasted my time." She leaves to get changed and Xerxes leaves with the Queen, the soldiers and workers knew that there would be a very big problem soon. Sooner than anyone could expect it.
'Hurry up or master would have our heads!!" A woman screams at all her subordinates and they cook faster, 'oh Goddess please call his heart down today, let him be at ease." She prays, 'can't you ladies be any faster?!!" She didn't want to die so early.
He had just finished his training and of course he was hungry, hungry as an understatement, he was starving, he had cleaned up and he wore a robe around his palace, going to the dining he expected food to be on the table but it wasn't there. But that's okay, he decides to wait a little.
'Loki!!" He summons one of his closest friends to the table with him,
'Master, what can I do for you?" He bows and Mace couldn't help the smile on his face, he grabs his head and raises his head to his eye level,
'We're alone, it's Mace not master, sit your ass down already!" They both laugh and Loki takes his seat, 'anything from Czar?" He asks as he munched on an apple, he had to suppress his hunger one way or the other,
'Nothing yet but I pray he does bring back good news, if the sage was right then princess Arcadia should be the one for you." He smiles like a devil, 'I'm sure you must have been dreaming about her already." Loki teases his half brother before laughing, Mace does his best not to blush but there was a trace of red on his cheeks.
'Get out! I don't want to see your face anymore!" He pushes him away but this only makes Loki laugh harder,
'It's my responsibility as a big brother to tease you, especially about the woman you're spending your life with." He takes the second apple and leaves a huge mark on it, taking parts of it into his stomach, 'what do you think she would be like?" He wanted to hear his imaginations about her.
'Beautiful, delicate, meek and kind, someone who isn't proud or loud, I want a gentle soul. She must always listen to me and never question my decisions. I think that is the ideal description of a mate." He smiles cheekily to himself, he would love Arcadia do be that way, always bowing down to his every command and at night, screaming his name multiple times as she reached orgasm over and over again.
That was his imagination of her.
'And what if you're doing something wrong?" Loki points out and he rolls his eyes at his comment,
'Then what are you here for?" He cocks his brow at his brother, 'I can't let a woman tell me what to do." He pushes the thoughts aside,
'She might be able to teach you a thing or two, it's always good to be open to knowledge Mace, irrespective of the bearer, I would say it over and over again. Remember the sage is a woman," he tries to make him see reason,
'Yes but she isn't my mate." He bites back but the statement makes them cringe, it would be hard to have someone old enough to be your ancestor your mate.
'Never say that again." Loki was indeed traumatized and this made Mace burst into a fit of laughter,
'As long as it upsets you I would do it over and over again. By the way how is Shelia?"
'She's fine, always making me run after her as usual." His eyes dilated in love,
'You're too soft on her, she would play you if you don't toughen up, is she even—"
