Chapter 96

“I’m sorry, your grace, I thought that we were soulmates, i shouldn’t have spoken to the king like that, it is completely my mistake!” With my sarcastic attitude on full display, I spoke to the king, my words made his entire family gasp, and a small amused scoff came from Carlos. It was also that attitude that landed me my first slap in two weeks, the king never did hold back when it came to force and I felt blood quickly trickle from my now bleeding lip, I cupped my palm underneath and watched my skin get tainted by the red substance.

“You ungrateful bitch!” The last time he called me that he dragged up to his room and defiled me in front of his ex beta. Unconsciously I cringed and waited for an onslaught of punches or slaps. Non came however and Instead my arm was grabbed roughly as 1 was dragged out of my seat and out of

the room.

Flashes of his delilement shot through my mind and I swallowed thickly as I quickly allowed fear to cloud me. Clearly the king hadn’t the time or patience today for my attitude as he marched me straight down the corridor and down the stairs to the main entrance, he hauled me out of the double doors and dragged me down the main steps of the palace, where a long shiny black limousine stood. The same one that brought me to this ill fated life. My legs got pulled along until I landed right next to the vehicle.

“Get in and stay seated… I deal with you when we are on the road!”

King josh opened the door and basically threw my bound form in, I hit the floor of the limo with a hard thump and painfully landed on the chains connecting my limbs. A small grunt left me as I moved myself awkwardly to sit on the floor while King Josh slammed the door shut and clicked the locks, before marching away.

I rolled my pants leg up slightly and winced as a large red indent of the chains rested diagonally across my left shin. That would undoubtedly bruise, not that it made much of a difference to me.

I sighed and managed to stand enough so that I could actually get my ass on a seat instead of being sprawled out on the floor. Once seated 1 began relishing in the peace and quiet the long car gave me.

It must have been about 20 minutes before the sweat started to pour off me, it was a cloudy day, and in all honesty it looked like it would soon rain, but it was stuffy, and somewhat warm. Being locked in a vehicle without a window cracked open was like being in a sauna, still it was quiet and I was in no rush for the king to return.

Another 10 minutes went by before the doors were unlocked and in turn opened, revealing the three men whom I did not want to be trapped with. Without hesitation the king grabbed my arm and threw me onto the floor, again my restraints made the landing less than smooth and I winced in pain as both my ankle cuffs painfully dug into my bone, once again a bruise will most likely be left.

“You are lesser than everyone here. You’ll remain on the floor, where you belong.” The king really wasn’t in the mood for any of my usual quirks today, not that he ever was mind you. “Let’s go, we’re wasting time now.

I want to get there by breakfast”

The limousines wheels sounded on the gravel below us and I looked up at the king who’s face held a permanent scowl.

“Can we crack a window at least?” I asked nervously as I looked at the raging man.

“She does look hot Josh!” Oliver was quick to come to my aid, as he placed his hand atop my head. “Goddess, how long has she been in here?” The king shrugged and pulled out a single bottle of water, he loosened the lid and held it out for me to take, which I did and immediately began to greedily drink

1. it.

“I don’t know… an hour, just under maybe.” Well it didn’t feel like it had been that long. No wonder I was thirsty and sweating as much as I was. He spoke as if it wasn’t a big deal, that leaving me for an hour was the same as leaving me for a few minutes.

All I knew for certain though, was that this journey was going to be long, much longer than when I first arrived. At least this time I would be conscious for the entirety of it.
