Chapter 103
"Why do you look so worried ?" Trevor asked as we entered the castle. We had arrived and my heart just couldn't settle. I felt so bothered and restless.I hated the feeling ,at the same time I also hated the thought of him being hurt.I hated emotions, emotions always got people into trouble.
I sighed "it's nothing"
"Really,the evil dog gets hurt finally and you look like you have lost your favorite puppy"he said looking down at me.
We stood outside the large room we were being kept ever since we came here "Don't be ridiculous Trevor"
"Am I?I really feel like I'm missing something here"he said
I had no energy to reply him and I did not feel like replying him at all at this moment. My mind was in so many different places "Trevor what is your problem? What's your point here?" I asked a bit annoyed.
"My point is it seems like you care a bit ...too much when you shouldn't care at all" he spat out.
I scoffed "Care a bit too much about what!"
"About him"he said
"Him?" I played dumb but I knew exactly who he meant
He folded his arms "The king"
Suddenly the door behind me was opened and Amara popped out "What did the king do?" She asked curiously and we both looked at her.I looked at her and back at Trevor a bit nervous . My heart was just begging for him not to make some of drama out of this. We stared at each other for a second that felt like centuries. He eventually broke the stare and looked back at Amara.
"The king got injured while saving Lucy from those things. She found them and now they believe us." he said before looking back at me.
I avoided his stare "Yeah that's what happened"
"Oh my gosh Lu! Are you okay? Wait why did you need saving from those monsters?" She asked raising an eyebrow.
Honestly this was just a long ass story that I wasn't in the mood to tell right now. I hugged her "I'm okay Mara, it's a long story but Trevor will fill you in. I need to do something important right now but I will be back in a few minutes I promise" I told her releasing her from the hug.
"Where are you off to?" She asked as I walked away fast as If I was in some sort of relay race.
"I'm around Amara!See you guys later!" I said bouncing off.
Trevor's words kept nagging me with each step that I took ,did I really care so much? No I didn't , I couldn't! I was just worried like a normal person , I just had to know if he was okay that's all. It was nothing deep, he saved my life the least I could do as a good person was to check up on him. Maybe my heart would be at peace then.
I followed the corridor until I was close to his room. It was funny how I still knew my way around the castle after so many months. I stopped at his door , I was starting to consider not going through with my plan. My heart skipped when I heard a loud beastly growl-it was him. He sounded like he was in so much pain.
"Hold him down!" I heard a male voice shout before there was another growl.
I opened the door without even realizing I was doing it. Nobody payed any attention to me, they were too occupied with holding their king down even though he was chained to the wall like some sort of prisoner. There were knives and surgical instruments everywhere. There was a man cutting off some flesh from his wounds . It was all so terrible and scary as hell.
"Jesus Christ" I said with wide eyes
"What is she doing in here!" Karen said glaring at me. She did not look so happy with my presence here.
I walked forward until I was facing him. It felt like something was controlling my body and pulling me towards him. His eyes flashed gold as he stared at me,he stopped moving.
"Yeah keep doing that,keep doing whatever it is you are doing" the doctor said as he continued cutting off what looked like infected flesh.
I kept staring at Alex "why are you removing his flesh" I asked the doctor,well he looked like a doctor.
"I am removing the infected flesh,it is stopping his healing process. Once I remove that he will start healing faster" he replied as he continued to remove the flesh
Alex looked frozen as he looked at me, it was like he was in his own world or something. I felt like he was looking right through me. He nolonger growled or moved around. I had the urge to touch his face,to make him feel better or comfortable. He looked so uncomfortable on that wall. He looked like a prisoner and that made me feel so bad for him.
"Doctor Adams should she even be in here" karen said still looking pissed at me,for some unknown reason.
Doctor Adams kept doing his work but he replied after a second "I take it she is his mate? Only a mate can have this effect especially on a King."
"Yes but what does that have to do with her being in here. She is just human." Karen said sounding annoyed
"We need her to keep him calm. I cannot cut the poison from his body while he is trying to rip my head off and moving around. She can stay but maybe you should leave,you do not look so good right now. Your emotions are clouding your judgement "he said as he poured what looked like some sort of disinfectant on a little blade.
"Fine, I will leave but let me know once you are done"she said as she walked out
"I will do that"he replied although he didn't sound convincing.
