“Do you?!” My father snapped “Might I remind you who the King is, you don’t order me around”
“I am not interested in playing, who’s in charge with you!” I shouted “I want a meeting and Ryker you better f*cking be there!”
“What is going on?” My father was no longer annoyed, in fact he seemed concerned, I rarely yelled at him
“Jaxson have I upset you?” Ryker asked as I continued to scan the room but there were too many guests so I walked over to the stage where the band was playing “Is this about Iyo?”
“Just meet me in the throne room!” I snapped and cut the link
“Stop the f*cking music!” I ordered and the band quickly ceased mid song.
“Guards!” I called out as everyone in the room began to look at me in concern.
Three guards rushed over and bowed while I scanned the room, finally finding the women I was looking for.
They were huddled around one of the water fountains talking close together and looking very pleased with themselves until they saw the furious look on my face and each of them turned nervously towards each other
“Arrest them!” I ordered and pointed to the group.
I took great satisfaction at the terrified look on Blake’s usally smug face and stepped off the stage as Evet came rushing over to me looking alarmed.
“Jax whats going on?” She grabbed my arm but I ripped it away from her
“I left Madelyn in your care because I thought I could trust you to keep her safe!” I shouted loudly “I will not make that mistake again!”
Evets eyes filled with tears and stepped back
“I..I don’t understand?” She said sadly “What’s happened, where is Maddie, she just left without saying anything”
I ignored her questions and marched over to the three girls who looked at me with true fear, and both Knox and I relished every second of it.
I walked over to Blake and grabbed her by the throat.
“If I were King, you’d already be dead!” I shouted in her face before shoving her back against the guard who’d been holding her “Bring them!”
I left the room of confused and frightened party goers and headed towards the throne room
My captives were crying at this point as we wove through the towers many hallways and rode the elevator up to the throne room.
Evet had followed after me but remained silent and looking solemn but I didn’t care, she was meant to watch out for Madelyn today, Id told her about my concerns with Blake being in attendance at the party and she’d assured me she’d keep her safe.
“Hey, Jax hold up!” Cole called out as we passed him and one of the elders on the way but I held up my hand
“Not now!” I said angrily and continued on but he ran after me
“What’s going on?” He asked as we finally reached my destination
The guards opened the doors and we headed inside to find my parents and Ryker talking in the middle of the room and Koda pacing around.
The second he saw me he came over “Jax, what is happening?”
I grabbed his shirt, unable to contain my rage and I shoved him back “DO NOT COME ANYWHERE NEAR ME RIGHT NOW!”
Kodas face went through a mix of emotions, confusion, hurt, annoyance and anger but when he saw Blake being brought in, his face went blank
“What is the meaning of this?!” Ryker shouted “Release my daughter right now!”
“DONT YOU DARE!” I overruled him “LINE THEM UP IN FRONT OF MY PARENTS!”
The guards looked nervous but did as they were ordered and placed the girls in a line in front of my parents
“GET ON YOUR KNEES!” I yelled and one by one, they complied, though it didn’t escape my attention that Blake was the last to get down “YOU EACH HAVE ONE CHANCE TO TELL YOUR KING AND QUEEN THE TRUTH, YOU” I pointed at the first girl “WHAT DID YOU DO TODAY!”
The girl looked at Blake and then at me with tears falling down her face but it didn’t sway me one inch
“I.. I don’t know what you’re talking about Alpha” The stupid b*tch lied “I don’t know why you’re mad at us, we didn’t”
I slapped her hard across the face and she fell to the ground bleeding and crying
“JAXSON!” My mother screamed but I didn’t care if she was a woman, usually, I would never put my hands on a girl but right now she was an enemy, her gender meant sh*t to me.
“I GAVE HER A CHANCE!” I shouted at my mother who stepped back in shock “YOU!” I pointed to the second girl who was already crying hard “SPEAK, WHO DID YOU HURT?!”
“Hurt?” Kodas eyes widened as he looked from the girls to me “Is Maddie hurt?”
“We didn’t” Heather said through her tears but when I growled she shrank back “It was just a prank, we didn’t know Blake had used real silver!”
“Silver?” Koda grabbed my arm “What is going on?”
I ripped my arm free and shoved him back
“DO NOT TOUCH ME!” I shouted before turning back to the girls “A PRANK, YOU CALL GIVING YOUR LUNA A SILVER NECKLACE AND TELLING HER THATS WHAT SLAVES WEAR IS A PRANK, YOU CALL BURNING YOUR LUNAS HANDS WITH SILVER, A F*CKING PRANK?!”
“Jax, if Maddie is hurt then why didn’t you tell me?!” Koda grabbed my jacked again
“WHY THE F*CK WOULD I, THIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT” I shoved him again and he looked so broken that I nearly lost all of my anger “IT WAS YOUR F*CKING EX WHO STARTED THIS!”
“I AM NOT TO BLAME FOR HER ACTIONS!” He finally shouted back, good, I’d have an excuse to hit him if got angry too “AND YOU TOOK LOVERS AS WELL, SO DON’T ACT LIKE IM SOME DISLOYAL B*STARD!”
“LOVERS, NOT PARTNERS!” I corrected “AND CERTAINLY NOT CLINGY LITTLE B*TCHES LIKE HER WHO WENT AROUND TELLING EVERYONE SHE WAS GOING TO BE LUNA SOMEDAY, SO NOW EVERYONE THINKS THEY CAN GET AWAY WITH HARMING OUR MATE, OUT OF SOME FOOLISH MISPLACED LOYALTY TO BLAKE, WHO HAS THEM ALL CONVINCED MADELYN STOLE YOU AND THE CROWN FROM HER!”
“BOYS THATS ENOUGH!” Our father shouted over us “Now, what happened?!”
I quickly relayed everything Madelyn had shown me through her incredible gift and I felt the rage building up again as I spoke.
Koda was looking sick as he glared down at Blake who was hanging her head.
“How could you do this?!” Rykers voice was full of shame as he stared at his daughter “This is not how I raised you!”
“It was just a joke!” She defended herself and I felt my claws come out “I didn’t think she’d actually touch the necklace, she should have smelt the silver”
“IF YOU HADN’T INTENDED ON HER TOUCHING IT THEN WHY USE REAL SILVER IN THE FIRST PLACE!” Koda screamed “WHY DO ANY OF THIS, DID YOU THNK THIS WOULD CHANGE MY MIND BECAUSE ALL IT’S DONE IS MAKE ME HATE YOU!?”
Blake started crying then and I huffed and turned for her
“I’m sorry” She wept but her fake tears weren’t fooling anymore “I just got so jealous, it’s not fare, one day Koda and I are in love and the next I’m thrown aside like I meant nothing, I went to far, I know that and I’ll apologise, I’ll do anything to make amends but please believe me, I never meant for her to get burnt”
“WE WERE NEVER IN LOVE!” Koda shouted “I WAS ALWAYS UPFRONT WITH YOU ABOUT MY FEELINGS, I WAS WAITING FOR MY MATE AND YOU SHOULD HAVE BEEN TOO, WE WERE NEVER GOING TO END UP TOGETHER!”
