I Care!
Kris 🙍🏻
Making my way toward The King's chambers as soon as I woke up the next day, I felt stressed to see his reaction towards what I had to say.
My nose twitched at smelling a faint scent of Anna nearby, but I shake it off. Cyn is probably somewhere in the palace with her.
I need to talk to Bahm before anyone else does this morning.
Entering his chambers, my lycan ears already picked up on his soft, yet semi-concious snores.
"Hey, I couldn't sleep. Let's talk." I say, approaching his bed and shaking his body carefully under his covers.
"Whattttt Kris!" He groans sluggishly. Throwing the covers over his face.
I knew he didn't like to be bothered until he got some more sleep, but I can't stop thinking about Hunnie. He can go back to sleep right after I speak m mind.
I sat on his bed, right in front of his laying torso, "I need you to understand something." I start off and slowly pull the covers down from his body. Purposefuly making the air hit his exposed flesh. Waking him up fully.
"Before you decide...to kill her, and your unborn child..I...."
"ITS NOT MY CHILD KRIS!" He roars, throwing the duvet, and sitting up on his bed. Fuming with anger.
His face only inches away from mine now. He didn't frighten me at all, I've seen him much more upset than this. His child inside of her would also be my child, or I would be it's uncle. However you put it, its his child which makes it even more important to me.
His first child.
I couldn't stop the aching my heart was beginning to feel. I pitied this whole situation. With teary eyes, I look over to Bahm's red face.
"So....you'll really.. kill her?" The words roll off my tongue and out of my mouth, burned like it was poison. showing my true emotions.
"I cannot spare her Kris. There is.... SO.....many unanswered questions and all she does is cry. She isn't willing to cooperate." He replies calmly as he searches my face, reading my sadness over.
I almost felt a change in his heart as he examines me, but it quickly disappears as he just stares into my eyes.
"Well...have you tried asking nicely?"
I ask getting my hopes up. "She's pretty sensitive it seems. She knows you Bahm..... "
"No way Kris. I'm telling you-"
"How else can she know Aldrerix's name?" I cut him off.
Not many people knew The Demon-Wolf's name. Even by saying the name, you awaken him instantly. Sometimes he isn't nice to those that call his name, but he loves me just as much as I love The King and him.
"Have you spoken to Aldrerix?" The twinkle in my eyes shining bright, expecting that Aldrerix, might know something!
He explains to me that not even Aldrerix remembers this woman. He's says, he's actually just as furious as that a Dark Witch carries their child.
"Kris... leave it alone."
"I don't want to tell my friend bye, Bahm!" I pleaded over to him. My voice coming out in trembles as a tremor shook throughout my body.
I felt so attached to her, feeling all the emotions spewing out of her from downstairs in the dungeon. Feeling like she was sharing her emotions with me and only I can really and truly feel how her heart does.
"I can feel all of her Bahm..." I adverted my gaze to the floor.
"Does it not bother you...to feel how afraid and alone she feels? Can you feel it too?" I asked, wondering how he can ignore her lingering feelings, especially since him and I were connected through his heart in my chest.
"Yes I do Kris, but it doesn't affect me the way it's affecting you. She must've placed a spell on you. I told you to stay away from her!"
"Im going to talk to her."
"KRIS NO!" Bahm raises his eyebrows to me. My vision became blurry as my eyes flooded with tears, but never steamed out.
"But.... SHE"S DYING BAHM!" I raised my voice slightly, turning to face his body that was shaking with control.
"GOOD! Her back is broken and she's been bleeding out. She's dying on her own! Leave her be!" He ever so casually says, and lays back under his covers.
"Why is it broken?" I became infuriated.
"I slammed her in the cell when she summoned some dark magic shit on me."
His words flew out so fast, the splinter in my heart impaired my hearing at the last bits.
It really pained me to hear how aggressive she had been treated. I placed my hand on my heart to soothe the mysterious connection I had to her. Remembering the tough and fearless little witch from neck home.
"Dont get too hurt, she has a cloaking spell up still. She isn't as innocent as you think, Kris. She's hiding something."
"But... she's........
Hunnie....is so much younger than you Bahm. How could you use your full strength on a woman?"
"Honey?" He cocks his head and scrutinizes my face.
"Her name is Hunnie, with a u, n.n.i.e" I spell it out to him. Recalling how she taught me in first grade.
Bahm, The almighty, ruthless King ignores me. She is still a person with a loving name. How could he even want to hurt that beautiful face? She still doesn't seem like a threat to me.
"Do you not care... she was my first love?" I blurted out. Not sure where it came from.
The King roars and sits up furiously.
"DO YOU NOT CARE I'VE BEEN BEWITCHED?!"
"DO YOU NOT CARE A DARK WITCH, whom I despise their whole existence , IS CARRYING MY CHILD?!!! MY SEED OUT OF NOWHERE?!?!?"
"IM FUCKING STRESSED KRIS!!"
My lips trembled all the while he yells at me.
There's no getting through to him. He's already made up his mind, but maybe I can get some more out of her.
This all doesn't make sense to me still.
"I'm going to see her. I'll get answers..."
"You already tried. You know that, and so did I." Bahm lays back down and covers his head with the covers again.
"You won't get much Kris. She's obviously hiding something. I can sense it." His muffled voice came out irritated and tired.
"I'm still going to try." I shrug and make my way off of his bed. Disregarding all his commands.
His aura shifts and I can feel him throw the covers off of him entirely as my back faces him.
I continue walking to his chamber door. My head hung low and my heart throbbing painfully.
"THIS HUNNIE HAS ALREADY MADE YOU SO SOFT! AND DISRESPECTFUL!!"
I ignore him now. Dragging my feet to the dungeons.
