Aurora frowned as Xaden scolded her.
She hated this.
Xaden was supposed to love her, not be angry with her.
"How could you be so stupid?" He demanded. "You hit Belle?"
"She started it," Aurora responded.
"Does it fucking matter?" He demanded.
She shut her mouth.
"She is the fucking princess and the next queen. You think she doesn’t have it for you?" Xaden asked. "If the King dies and she becos Queen, it won’t be long before she cos for you."
"I don’t care," Aurora said. "I can fight her."
Xaden looked at her. "Don’t be stupid. Fight her?! You want to fight the Queen? Do you know that is treason?"
She kept quiet.
Xaden paced up and down. "You are lucky the king let you be. You’re really lucky. If he were in a bad mood, he would have had you sentenced to death."
Aurora quickly got up to her feet. "You won’t let him do that to , will you?"
"It’s the King." He said. "You should have known better than to attack Belle. No one crosses him."
She had gotten the answer.
He didn’t care well enough about her.
If the King ordered her death, Xaden wouldn’t fight for her.
She also knew that he could never love a woman.
"What were you two even arguing about?" He demanded further anger. "You better tell ."
She couldn’t tell him that she was fighting over him.
How could she make him understand that she wanted him only for herself?
"Belle made so statents about you." Aurora gave in. "She said she would make you hers; eventually, I couldn’t stand it."
Xaden was quiet, and when he turned, he gave her a cold stare.
"Whether I eventually end up with Belle is none of your business." He said
She knew he didn’t love her; he also didn’t love anyone.
But she wanted him to love her!
"You can’t end up with Belle." She told him. "You said you would never be with anyone!"
"I told you that I would never love anyone." He retorted. "Is that a problem? And besides! Like I said, Whether I end up with Belle is not your concern. You will not be disrespectful to her during the entire festival."
She snorted. "Then tell her to stay away from !"
Xaden raked his head. "You will stay away from her! I can address you because you are my subject, and you answer ! But not Belle!"
Aurora was fuming.
He has yelled at her because of Jasmine, and now he is yelling at her because of Belle?
What was happening?
Where was the Xaden that she had trapped with her body?
Where had he gone?
She started to imagine Xaden getting married to Belle.
After everything she had done for him,
The thought of him being with her made her body shiver.
She wanted to tell him not to marry Belle.
But she knew when she couldn’t cross the line.
"You will apologize to Belle." He said.
She jumped to her feet. "Xaden, you don’t expect to belittle myself.
"YOU WILL NOT ANSWER BACK AT ! NEVER!" He barked at her.
She went hush.
And then he turned to face her, and his wolf howled.
"And you will refer to by my title as Alpha." He said. "I am your Alpha, and you will obey and bow down to ."
His wolf howling began to dominate her, and she felt herself go down on her knee.
He caught her chin and forced her to look up at him.
She was breathing heavily and could barely make her spine shiver.
"If you ever talk back to again," he said, "I’ll send you to Rumgal."
Her body instantly began to shake.
Rumgal was a prison for torturing wolves. Any pack could send its mbers there.
It was dangerous and highly filled with the screams of people in pain.
She fell to his feet and bowed to him.
"Please, I would never do that." She said. "I will never disobey you again."
She had been to Rumgal.
Alpha Bale had sent her there after he had killed her entire pack and family.
"You will stay away from Belle." He inford her. "You will not be in this pack during the Hallo festival."
"What?!" She said she was jumping on her feet. "But I’ve never attended the festival before. This might be the first and only ti I could see it, and
He gave her a warning look, and she shut her mouth and looked down at her hands.
As much as she had other plots up her sleeve, she didn’t want to miss the festival.
It was a very special festival for her, like other wolves.
It was essential to her.
"This is the punishnt for your actions, " he said. I will only allow you to be around during the final ritual. Pack your things. You should be gone by the end of the day."
Aurora felt her heart bleeding, and then rage burned inside her.
All because of that stupid Belle!
That fucking bitch!
Aurora gritted her teeth in anger.
"Do you understand ?" Xaden demanded.
"Yes, Alpha," she replied.
Then he walked out of the room and shut it behind him.
Aurora scread as she began to break and scatter things.
She growled as she upturned the table and ripped the curtains apart.
After she had satisfied her need to destroy, she stood in the room, breathing heavily.
Then she walked to the door and paced back and forth.
She needed to get rid of Belle and Jasmine.
She would face Jasmine first, then Belle later. Belle’s case was extraordinary.
She had sent so n to investigate her original pack and find out as much as possible.
And she still had Alexander to contend with.
He had sothing on Jaamine.
She massaged her chin.
Lisa had seen them kissing if Xaden believed she was having an affair with Alex.
He would go nuts.
But she was leaving.
How would she go about it now?
And then a devious thought sprung into her head.
