CHAPTER 85

Dylan POV.

I couldn’t do anything but stand and watch as King Josh stalked towards me, all of my resilience completely dissolved upon seeing him, and with it my bo “I asked you a question… Did you miss me?!‘ His tone was deadly as he looked down on my shaking form, he let out a scoff before my shoulders were g I swallowed thickly as my eyes darted around the room, Oliver was there, along with the kings father and of course Warren. The one person I wished to s “W–

When did you get back?” 1 stuttered slightly as 1 spoke, he wasn’t best pleased with me answering him with a question of my own because his grip tig “You absolutely reek of him!” What, I reek of him? Him Who? The king look positively furious the more he glared at me. “A month… I’ve been gone an en month, and you’ve been with another man.. my beta no less!” Been with his beta? Did he actually think I’d had sex with Lewis?

“Are you delusional?!” I couldn’t help but let my anger rise in me, I wasn’t going to stand there and be accused of something that in actuality never happ am, considering how I was when you lett “Td watch you mouth if I were you girl, I think my son is beling quite calm considering the circumstances. The dowager king spoke as he looked at me, I “W–

what circumstances?” I didn’t have time to get my balance as King Josh suddenly let his claws slide out of my skin by shoving my body away from him fell onto my dress cladded bottom. I felt blood drip down both my arms but didn’t dare to say anything about it as I looked up at the king, “You humans have no sense of loyalty, wolves mate for life! You all, simply fuck your way through life with as many different people as you can.” What? That’s not trar, I mean sure ther “At least we don’t beat the shit out of the people we do choose to be with!” I snapped while still sitting on the floor. Blood was still dripping down my arm so much that I was on the verge of collapse, and just when I was finally getting rid of all the cracks he’d made, he came back, just to make them deeper “So that’s what you were doing? You slept with him to get back at me for punishing you?!” I shook my head no at him, his tone was getting more and mo “No! I didn’t do anything we didn’t.” It was like he’d made his mind up and nothing was going to sway him. Maybe he was trying to find a reason to punis to look on at me, I could have sworn I saw guilt flash across Oliver’s face but it could have just been my eyes playing tricks.

“Then explain why my beta was sleeping in your bed!” He was seeing red, you could tell by the way his eyes bored into my own, I was getting increasing the situation. He’d only just come back and he had already started his abuse.

“He was just comforting me, he’s the only person that can calm me down.” The kings eyes grew even darker as he took hold of my wrist and pulled my face so close to his that I could feel his breath on my nose.

“He’s the only one that can calm you down?” He spat at me before shaking me a little, I was basically a rag doll to him. “Are you fucking in love with him or something?” That was a trick question, I’d seen him ask questions like this before, no matter what my answer would be, weather it be denial or acceptance, I’d still get tortu “She knows she’s yours, and Lewis knows she’s yours, I’m sure that he was just keeping her safe like you asked him too.” Oliver spoke coming up be *Spend some time together?! Everything he’s dealt with this month and he comes home to completely treachery.” His father spoke to the gamma with a

she needs to learn her place.” The king however seemed to just look straight through me. Not giving any indication of what he was thinking.

“You are correct father… and I do have urges to get rid of.” He took hold of my upper arm and clamped his hand right around it painfully digging his fingers in my No, he wouldn’t do that straight away would he? Please god, no. Why, why couldn’t he just leave me alone. Why did he have to come back?!

“Get off me!” I yelled as he began to drag me out of the throne room and through the castle. I have to admit though, the one thing on my mind as I was being dragged to my fate was, where the fuck was Lewis?!
