Chapter 64
***LUCY'S POV***
Death is a cruel thing,death is my enemy. I am afraid of death-I wish death was afraid of me as well but unfortunately that is a fools wish. Death... I hate how I can always smell it around me like the rotting stench of hell itself. I am afraid of death but right now I could really use some dying.
Benjamin, Benjamin, Benjamin that was the only name stuck in my head as I lay in my enemies bed.Yes I was back in the Lions den but that didn't matter. Nothing mattered anymore, I was as good as dead. I was over it.I was over death now,what I needed was to join everyone else that I loved.
"So?"a familiar voice asked,him-the devil himself.
"She is in trauma probably because of whatever happened back there."another voice joined him. A doctor most probably.
I kept my eyes glued to the white ceiling,I was frozen. Why was I even alive?Why was I still existing in a world that was clearly nolonger meant for a human being like myself. This world was nolonger my home,not anymore.
The king growled,"what I need from you is a solution to this problem!Stop wasting my time and tell me what to do about my mates frozen state,I can barely hear her heart beat!"
If I could smile right now I would have. Yes,feel angry and be pissed off that was only a drop of what he deserved. If I could drive a knife full of a thousand negative broken emotions into your heart I would!He was a monster,a disgrace and I was stuck in this hell with him.
I heard the doctor clearing his throat,he sounded scared ,"uh just make sure she gets enough rest and she she should take two of these each day after a full meal.She Will be okay."
"Okay,you may leave now."the Alpha king dismissed the doctor. I heard him move closer to me. I felt him sitting on the right side of the bed. I knew what he was going to do ,how dare he.
The next thing I knew I had a pocket knife stuck in his chest. I do not know how I did it or how I even managed to do it but I definitely just stabbed the king and he didn't look phased by it at all.
"I definitely didn't expect that from you.You sure are full of surprises and i hate surprises."he said pulling out the knife from his chest.
I quickly crawled away from him after falling off the bed. I felt angry for letting myself get stuck in this situation,if only I had never gotten comfortable at Benjamin's place. He would still be alive and I would still be running away from this fool.
He raised an eyebrow at me,"You shouldn't crawling on the floor in your state-mate."
I almost rolled my eyes at him, didn't he get it! I didn't want to be close to him and I definitely didn't want to be taken care of by a monster. He let out a deep sigh and got up. I quickly crawled back into a corner as if that would be protect me.
"Don't come any closer!"I snapped at him.
"Fine,get on the bed on your own or we can do this the hard way."
I widened my eyes "Stay away from me you monster!"
"Okay ,the hard way it is." he said walking towards me carefully.
"Why won't you just leave me alone,"I cried desperately.
He smiled devilishly "oh I wish I could but that's impossible,"
"Because of the stupid mate thing! Just pretend I'm not your mate!" I said in anger. I didn't even want to be his mate anyways whatever that was.
"Stupid human, your very existence is a joke. I cannot just pretend I am not your mate. Do you think it's that easy,if it was I wouldn't be here right now and you wouldn't be alive because of me."he said rolling his eyes-beautiful eyes. No!what am I saying ...ugly eyes!
It couldn't be that complicated pretending I do not exist-he was definitely just being impossible. "I don't want this,I do not want you!"
"Well we don't always get what we want mate-that is the cycle of life."he said picking me up forcefully from the floor.
I felt like a stupid child but he was right. Life was definitely cruel for not giving me what I want-just once. Just this once,in a second I was tucked back into his warm blankets and he was laying right next to me staring at the ceiling. How could someone so beautiful be such a monster-what a waste.
"I am not a monster Lucy,that's far from the definition of what I am. I am something much worse and you...you are one very unfortunate human being."he said without blinking even once and I swallowed hard.
What has God gotten me into and why?
