Hunter.
“She would never-,” I couldn’t even stand up for her anymore. I was completely shocked and trapped. The quards started hitting me, pushing me towards Samuel.
“Where is she? I want to see her,” I shouted as his guards laid their hands on me. I punched one in the face and kicked another while three more attacked me. Even with Jeffry joining the fight, we were only two against their outnumbered force. His guards took control, handcuffing both me and Jeffery, disarming us, and then dragging us inside.
“Throw them where they belong. Samuel muttered, leading us with a group of his guards through the vast hallways. Despite my efforts, I couldn’t spot Reyna anywhere.
+ but
“Reynal” I cried out. strangely, she was nowhere to be seen. I heard Samuel chuckle each time I called out for her. Then, we were ushered into the basement where a large locked door awaited. Samuel switched off the fan in front of the door and then unlocked it, pushing us inside with force.
However, there was another door beside the main one, but he guided us towards a smaller one, slightly farther away. Once inside, he shackled us and left us there. His guards departed, while Samuel lingered by the door, observing our futile attempts to break free from the restraints. After minutes passed and we gave up, Samuel scoffed.
“Finished fighting? You’re wasting your time. You’ll never escape from here,” Samuel said, his arms crossed over his chest as he leaned against the door frame.
I couldn’t believe this was the man I had considered a friend for years. I simply stared at his face in shock.
“How–how could you turn out to be so evil? Wanting my mate, the love of my life, to the point where you’re willing to kidnap the alpha king and commit the biggest crime that could start the worst war in history?” I yelled, gesturing wildly as the chains clinked.
“You realize you’ve outnumbered the two of us, but the rogues can’t outnumber all the packs combined. So when they find out that you abducted me- I was rambling when he punched the wall, silencing me. I narrowed my eyes, waiting to hear what twisted words he would utter next.
“You think she’s the love of your life?” he hunched over, hands on his knees.
“Huh? She is the love of my life. Do you have any idea how long I’ve been in love with her?” he shouted, and I was taken aback as he straightened his back, catching me off guard.
I squinted at his face, utterly confused.
“Yeah! You heard me right. I fell in love with her when she wasn’t even married to you. I wanted her to be my mate, but then you took her. You made her your Luna and even impregnated her, but all for what? You lost her, he screamed at the top of his lungs, revealing the biggest truth he had hidden from me all this time.
“You made her bring your child into this world, but you weren’t even there with her when she was pregnant. What a scumbag! Why the heck did you steal her from me if you didn’t want to keep her anyway? He continued his tirade, giving me the worst headache.
He had his eyes on my Luna all this time.
“And you think that makes her not the love of my life? I suffered every day after rejecting her. But the minute we were face to face again, I decided that no matter what the past held, even if she was guilty, I didn’t care. I wanted her back. That’s what my life was about, especially the fact that I had to paint myself as a villain when I interrupted your wedding to her,” I groaned, watching his face change color.
“I did it because I found out something about you,” I said, observing him qulp but not look away
“You stopped the investigation into the guy who hit and ran my son,” the moment I said that, his face betrayed an expression that could only be described as ‘caught in the act.”
“What are you talking about?” he shrugged, attempting to appear nonchalant.
“You stopped the investigation, Why would you do that?” I asked, recalling the day I discovered the information. I had been digging into his background to dissuade Reyna from marrying him when I stumbled upon this revelation. Initially, I had wanted to use that information to delay the wedding, but ultimately, I wanted Reyna to move in with me, far away from this mysterious man.
“Huh! You’ve turned rotten. I stopped the investigation after nothing turned up. Stop searching for excuses to convince yourself that I’m not a good match for her. I’m the only one who can make her happy, his voice lacked the same conviction as before. He appeared disturbed, and I knew why.
“You won’t have her. You’ve made a big mistake letting me in,” I said, watching him frown.
“Oh, come on. I let you in because this is where you’ll meet your end. You have no weapon, no wolf. You’re doomed. Besides, Reyna is on my side now. We’ll just go get our son and then leave this city to live somewhere far away from her crazy ex who killed her beloved Polline, Samuel smirked, sending a chill down my spine as I realized his intentions,
I attempted to move my arms to break the chains, but it was futile. He lingered for a few moments, relishing in my struggle, before finally departing. He locked the door behind him, leaving us trapped.
“I’m not feeling well. They injected me with something, Jeffrey uttered in a broken voice, leading me to believe they had subjected him to the same treatment as me. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
“I need to s
see Reyna just once. I can convince her that I’m innocent,” I declared determinedly, though I felt utterly helpless.
As I knelt there in shackles, a voice of hope emerged from the room adjacent to ours.
“They gave you the poisonous herb to tranquilize your wolf,” the voice, though rough and strained, carried a tone of authority.
“Who’s there? Who are you?” I yelled, directing my attention to the wall where t
the voices originated.
“I am the true Rogue King.”
