The human breeder for the cursed Alpha King

Chapter.6

Freya's p.o.v

The court room ascended into a murmuring centre as the man behind the voice swaggered in with a number of other people. Among them was the man with a scar I had met at the slave market the other time.

I gasped at the mere sight of him. My eyes darted around and as they fell on Lucien, I could only see suppressed anger glowing through his now crimson red face.

"Hello, Elder Alvin," the man greeted the elder man who has been the master of the ceremony, patting him by the shoulder as he and his goons walked pass the aisle and settled on some of the seats around. "How unfair of you to try to go ahead with the bonding without me?"

His voice was more of a menace than a friendly gesture and the look on Lucien's face said it all. I couldn't quite place my hand on it, but I know his presence in the court room is the least wanted.

"And now that the ceremony is almost ended. The next phase will be the marking," Elder Alvin continued. "As the tradition goes, there's need to mark your mate in front of everyone so the bond gets solidified and the whole of Luparia knows who she belongs to."

I felt my heart pounded at the mention of the marking ceremony or the touch of Lucien on me.

"Uhm... can we do that in private, please?" I blurted out and every head in the court turned to meet me at the throne.

"It's a marking bond not mating bond, dummy human," one of the goons that had followed the man in bellowed at me from his seat. "This isn't Homine. It's Luparia and that's how things are done here."

"Shut it," the man shut him up by raising a finger and he backed off slowly. "Let's just wait and see as the truth unfolds."

The truth? Unfolds?

I gazed at Lucien once more and his face was pure madness. He seem to be glaring at the man and his goons and I couldn't help but think and drown in the pool of confusion as to what is actually going on.

Madam Selene's gesture translating that all is well only made me do a double take. Nevertheless, I turn to face Lucien and ask.

"Are you OK?"

His face turned normal as he blinked, only heaving a heavy sigh in return.

"Shall we proceed to the marking ceremony and then call it a night?" Elder Alvin asked.

Lucien nodded.

My body trembled as Lucien got near and near to me. His masculine hands touched my neck and I felt a huge surge of hotness erupt from inside of me. It was way intense that I needed to stop him even before his lips could reach for my neck. It felt really uncomfortable that it almost made me pass out.

"I can't," I jerked away from Lucien. "I'm sorry this was a mistake. I can't do this."

The court room fell silent.

I felt my body drip in hot sweats inside my off shoulder gown and a furrowed brow expression on Lucien's face as the goons and man's laughter filled the court made me gasp for breath.

"What the hell is funny, Cassius?" Lucien barked at the man and I could see his fisted hands about to throw punches.

"Everything Lucien," Cassius answered sharply, rising to his feet. "We all know this is never ending well. It didn't with your ex-mate and why would it with a mere slave? I'm sure the moon goddess only wanted a slave for you and we all know what that is all about. But a mate? I bet the moon goddess must have been high or something."

"Hey, watch it, Cassius," Elder Alvin intercepted.

"Oh, shut up Alvin. We all know the truth why won't you just say it as it is. It's only a matter of time before I put you in your place anyway."

With that being said, Cassius and his goons left as they arrived and every other Lycans followed suit.

Lucien only returned to his throne, sat down and watched as everyone other Lycans continue to exit the court including Madame Selene who was hesitant at first. I know seeing her in the court room would most likely be the last time I'd be seeing her again, considering that I will now be under the Alpha king's protection and all.

Being the last Lycan left in the court, I looked at Elder Alvin as he bowed and left the court after Lucien whispered into his ears.

My gaze fell on Lucien and I could tell he was really pissed. Still not looking at me but at the door instead, I felt like he was mad, really mad at what I had let happen to him.

"I'm... I'm so sorry," I try to apologize after I look around to see that we were the only ones remaining in the court.

My apology tend to fall into deaf ears and three guards barged in into the court shortly after.

"Your honour," they bowed, Lucien's gaze still away from me.

I felt like my stopping the marking bond has led to a quick switch in him and his face was just dead cold and devoid of any emotions.

"Just a minute," Lucien said.

They all left to the outside of the court, the door closed.

I blinked in confusion at the sudden switch in Lucien. Just minutes ago, he was super sweet and now, he was just an entirely different person.

Not sure of what to do, I kneeled down beside him and began to beg him. His hands suddenly clamped tight around my arms. His fingers digging deep into my skin and shaking my body violently while screaming at me caused me to fight back due to the hotness of his touch as I rose to my feet. It felt so uncomfortable.

He wouldn't stop screaming at me the more I pleaded and try to wiggle free from him. Instead, his hold tightened on my body as he continued to shake me whilst holding me.

"How dare you human try to humiliate me in front of not only everyone but also that jerk? You think this is a joke?"

"No, please stop. I"m so sorry I didn't..." I couldn't even finish my statement as I try so hard to wiggle away from his stronghold. "Please, I beg you. Stop. It hurts."

"Shut up," he snapped at me and I could see his once piercing and alluring blue ice turn dark. "Since, you wouldn't let me mark you then having you as pleasure wouldn't be a bad idea either— my personal pleasurer."

Nevertheless, he grappled my neck and he dug his teeth on it forcefully. I felt my body went completely numb. I collapsed to the ground and everything started to blur.

"Take her to the dungeon," I heard Lucien command his guards as they came back in and then...

I finally blacked out.
