The Alpha King’s Fated Scarred Mate

Ann POV

The welts at my back melted, and I could hear the buzzing sounds of the flies behind me, they dared to perch on my back.

I shrieked my body such the annoying flies could leave the sore injury on my back but I only hurt myself more because of the shackles that dug into my bare wrist.

Isn’t Jayden dead? Why haven’t they returned to me; to complete their torture?

Why is Suga not here?

I couldn’t help but think widely, but then I remembered I was a bit crazy, I should be thinking about myself.

I was lost in my thoughts when I suddenly felt the heavy presence before me, the aura exudes danger and death. At the sight of their heavy footwear, I felt suffocated, and traumatized.

I suddenly dropped dead to the icy ground, eyes parted, smoke emanating from my skin, I couldn’t even lift a limb.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

“Do you think she’s dead?” I heard them ask. They shoved their heavy footwear against my ribcage, yet no sounds or grunts escalated from my parted lips.

“What does it mean anyway if she’s dead or alive? We are asked to dump her body down the cliff.” Another hoarse voice broke through the existing silence.

So this was going to be the end of my life. I panicked and sobbed inwardly.

Wasn’t I going to make my mother proud even in her death? I almost gloated at my stupid self.

So my mother’s death would be in vain? At this last thought, hot salty tears streamed down my butter cheeks.

Everything is wrong in this world! Everything is hopeless! Dreams are useless anyway.

No one should fuckin dream, you’ll get stuck halfway unable to fulfill the dream. You might die like me without fulfilling the dream.

My lifeless sprawled hands were bound with a tight rope that cut into my skin cause I could feel the stinging pain.

I felt the most heartbreaking session of my life as I was being dragged on the icy rough ground.

“We should follow the backdoor, or else,” there was a pause, I couldn’t hear them.

” Why don’t we have fun with her?”

Of what use is my body, they should have the fun with me before life left me, and I became decomposed.

“If Madam Jessica gets to know this, she might skin us alive.” I could sense the terror that spread as Madam Jessica’s name was called.

She fuckin told me she was a vixen, I shouldn’t joke with her.

And I promised you Madam Jessica that if I ever survive this terror, I’ll be the death that will kill you. I’ll irk you by ensuring I messed with everything she’d have warned me against.

My heart rises up and down under my chest. A faint grunt escaped from my mouth as my body came in contact with a sharp edge.

“Gosh, she’s bleeding.” One of them said.

“She would die anyway so bury your concern about her. She’s a worthless maid who thinks because she’d won the king’s favor, she’d remain untouched.”

” That reminds me, she’s a princess sent as a tribute. If she died?”

My hands suddenly dropped to the ground with a heavy thud.

” If she remained missing tomorrow, our head.”

“Stop being stupid! Madam Jessica is going to be the new Queen mother, no one would dare to question her.”

” How sure are you?”

” The supreme Luna is solidly behind her. The supreme Luna won’t watch her niece get sentenced to death, so they will shift the blame to a feeble sheep.”

” We are the sheep, aren’t we?”

” Enough talk. Let dump her down the cliff or perhaps butcher her body party like how a wild jaguar would have done to its prey so even if they found her body, it would be useless to trace.”

” She’s already dead! Let her be!”

” How long before we reach the cliff?” They asked.

” Just a few hours. Let’s hurry up.” I heard the other party say.

“Jayden I’ll hurt you even in my death. I’ll make you childless.” I swear within my mind, as if I could make it happen when I’m alive talk more about me being dead.

“We are almost there.”

The breeze grew tense, the icy sensations spread like terror. Six black birds suddenly flew over us, they perched a few distance away from us along a Raven making it number 7.

“What sort of stupid sensation is crawling around the atmosphere.”

” Perhaps the worthless slave is a witch?” They busted into laughter.

” Greatest jokes of the year.” One of them added.

I felt them freeze, from the corner of my eyes, I could still watch everything unfolding.

The six blackbirds transformed into a human form, with dark regalia draping from their shoulders to the icy ground, their hair covered.

The Raven with the white strip at its neck was the last to transform. Black fur gown, and a feather cap that covered her face.

“Magic! Magic!” They cried, dumping my body carelessly on the icy floor but a purple whirl of light shone directly to me, and my body hung in the air.

She was fast like a thunderstrike, her blade flew around the four royal guards, and they fell limb to the ground, their crimson liquid coloring the white icy floor.

She hovered over my face, my mouth parted and I saw something weird pouring out of her mouth into mine.

My heart wrenched in pain. I felt the air escaping from my lungs, I could not breathe properly.

As I gasped for breath, her claws ran over my face, she had grey hair, and a perfect jaw which seemed familiar to me.

“Hello sister,” she said in a dulcet voice, slashing my face.

“Ouch!” I winced inwardly, whimpering amidst the air.

A smaller bottle to my face, and I lost on what she was going to do to me. I tried to fight her, to stop her but my strength was useless.

With another slash, I felt it deeper. “Sister, I just need your blood.”

“What are you going to do with my blood? What do you need it for?” She said every fuckin thing on my mind, with the way I would have reacted if I wasn’t numb.

“If you want to know, then you have to do everything I ask of you.” Her eyes blazed fire, danger. My mind screamed, run! Hide! She’s evil but how can I run when I’m powerless?
