Chapter 82

Soma’s POV

“Let me go!” I growled clawing at him, but it didn’t seem like it mattered. Was this his Lycan and he was not in control anymore?

“You smell divine,” he smirked, his teeth were changing, my heart was racing I wasn't sure what I could do. I knew overpowering him wasn't going to work, and that was a bad thing. I looked in both directions, but I knew I had to get out of his hold before I could escape.

“Please let me go!” I whined again trying to free myself, but his strength seemed like it was getting stronger.

“Now why would I do that, you know just as well as I do you are fair game,” he said pulling me closer to him. “I am going to make you mine!”

“Roman!” a voice boomed through the hallway, he instantly let go of me. “Why are you hurting the Princess?”

“Sorry King Gideon, she was trying to get away,” he muttered.

“No, I wasn't!” I growled. “He wanted to show me around the castle, and then this happened,” I said pulling away from him. “I cannot trust you, please take me back to my room,” I said looking at King Gideon.

“Come, I have to leave here and I want you to stay in your room,” he said turning and walking the other way.

I glanced at Roman his eyes were different, they were back to normal. I was glad King Gideon was there to ensure he didn’t do anything, I knew he was going to use this as something to make me do what he wants, but I knew better. I was going to tell him he cannot have what he wants, he is the reason things are happening to me. If only he would let me go, I would go back to Oliver and everything would be back to normal. I missed my freedom more than I thought, I just wanted to be free.

“You are unmarked that is why he lost control of his Lycan.” King Gideon spoke. “I will keep guards posted at your door, but you cannot leave unless I am with you.”

“I can handle myself.”

“Well then I should have let you try and get away from Roman, all he had to do was bite you and drink your blood and then you would be bound to him.” he chuckled. “Don't worry Princess when I get back everything will be better. You will be crowned Queen and everyone will bow to your feet.”

“But I don’t want to be Queen, I want to go back home.”

“Princess this is your home, the sooner you accept that the better.” he smiled as we walked

“I am not going to accept anything.” I snapped at him. “The sooner you respect me the better things will be for you.”

He grabbed me around the throat pinning me to the wall. “I know you think you know what is best for you, but you are not going anywhere. When I mark you, and yes I will force it if I have to, the sooner you will learn your place here!” he let go of me. “Your room,” he said pushing the door open.

I walked in, and he slammed the door and locked it. I wasn't sure how he expected me to stay in a room I hated. I didn’t want to be here, and I needed to run into the darkness again and try and find my way away from this place. I hated King Gideon and everything he stood for, I wish he would just die or something. I knew the thoughts were bad, but the way he was acting he should be dead. No one should be a prisoner here, and I wasn't going to do what he wanted me to.

Walking to the patio, the door was unlocked. I knew going out right now was a bad idea, I needed to sleep and eat something before I tried something crazy. I knew I would probably get caught again and they would throw me into the dungeon, but I couldn’t just sit here and wait for King Gideon to get tired of waiting.

“Princess?” a woman called.

I walked back into the room, a older woman that looked like she’d been abused had a tray of food in her hand. “King Gideon asked me to bring this to you,” she said with a small smile. “I will be back later to get it,” she said bowing her head before she left me standing there.

My stomach growled, I knew I needed this. Sitting down at the table, I ate most of the food before I started to feel weird. I wasn't sure if it was from all the stress or because I was too tired to stay awake. I made it to the bed before I passed out.

Opening my eyes I wasn't sure what happened, my head hurt and my body felt like I got drunk the night before. Sitting up, the room didn’t look like a normal room, it wasn't the room I had been in before.

“Good morning Princess.” King Gideon came out of what I was assuming was the bathroom. “Did you sleep well?” he smiled.

“What, what did you do to me?” I snapped wanting to get out of bed, but the room was spinning and I felt like I was going to puke.

“Roman told me what you’ve been trying to do, so I brought you here,” he said looking around. “This is going to be your new room until we’re mated.”

“Where am I?”

“Someplace you cannot escape, you see Roman was watching you on the patio last night. He told me he felt like you were going to try and get out of the castle again. I don’t want to chase that, so I moved you while you were sleeping.”

“Again why drug me? Why not escort me to this room?” I said throwing the covers off. “You cannot just drug me, what if the vampire attack, you are going to leave me where they can just take me,” I said crossing my arms.

“I can.” he mused. “The vampires will not find you here, you are safe,” he said walking into the closet. “Now I am going to leave you to get ready, Roman is outside and he will bring you to the dining hall. Don’t worry you will not be able to figure out where you are, so don’t even bother trying to plan your escape.”

“I am going to get out of here one way or another,” I said slowly getting up.

“I would go slow, it will take some time for the drugs to get out of your system if you need help ask Roman to come in, otherwise I will see you in a bit,” he said putting the gown on the bed and leaving me sitting there.

I tried to stand up, but my head started spinning worse. I couldn’t believe he would do something, I mean I guess he thought I was going to get away and didn’t want to take the chance. Maybe he knows something about me that I don’t, and I’ll get away from him and find a Lycan or two that will help me get away from him.

A few minutes passed I was able to get to the bathroom before I puked. I was pissed that he thought he could control me, now I had to be careful about eating anything that they bring to me. I didn’t want to sleep my time away here, I needed to find a way out of here. This wasn't going to be my final place, I hoped Oliver was trying to find me. I was scared he wasn't going to find me in time and it would be the end of our mate bond.

I was a little mad at Nick for leaving me here alone, he didn’t even tell me when he would be back. I wasn't sure if King Gideon sent him away because he would help me escape. I needed to get in touch with Nick and let him know what was going on.

After I finished getting ready Roman came into the room but stayed by the door. I wasn't sure what to say to him other than just not looking at him. I still hadn't forgiven him for what he did yesterday I wanted to see him get hurt because of what he did.

“Are you ready Princess? King Gideon hates to be waiting,” he said breaking the uneasiness in the room.

“I can find my way, please leave.”

“I am sorry I wish I could take back what my Lycan did, but I cannot. Please understand I lost control of him and there wasn't much I could do,” he said lowering his head. “I hope you can find it in your heart to forgive me, I didn’t mean anything.”

“Well, you are lucky King Gideon came around otherwise I would have been your mate, and I would have killed us both.” I snapped at him. I did feel a little bad about what I said but I needed him to see that I was pissed off and I didn’t want him near me.

“Please let’s go,” he said opening the door.
