Edward
I couldn't do it and I hate myself for this.
Edwina conspired with my uncle to kill my mother and I shouldn't be having any sort of feelings for her!
But I couldn't even bring myself to hurt her.
My heart got so heavy when I thought that something bad had happened to her in a little fight with Rebecca. I would not have forgiven myself if Rebeca succeeded in hurting her skin with that hot iron rod.
What the hell was she thinking?
I knew immediately that Rebeca was lying about the whole scenario and I knew that her tears and drama were fake
Edwina will not just take an iron rod to try to hurt Rebecca. That’s just stupid.
But I do not care about their little argument all I want to know is what I want to know. Why did she kill my mother?!
I do not want anyone to think they have the right to enact punishment upon Edwina, I am the only one who can touch her! I can't show these things out in the open because everyone would think I have become weak by Edwina’s charm but I haven’t.
I know exactly what I am doing. I plan to make her feel miserable and she would wish she was dead.
I know that she is a princess who has lived a luxurious and rich life and she isn’t used to such harsh treatment so that is this is just the beginning. Everyone who once knew her as a beautiful princess will see her and marvel because now she eats and sleeps with common servants.
I know that as a princess, she is naturally born with pride it would be hard for any royal to see themselves in that position so she is no different.
I don't want her dead, I need to see the light leave her eyes, I need to see her wish for death.
She conspired with my uncle to kill my other right? I need her to feel the same pain as I felt and even more.
Now I’m here alone with her in the throne room, holding a whip and questioning her when all I should do is inflict pain on her while I hear her cries but who am I deceiving? The moment I took the whip and told everyone to leave the both of us, I knew that I couldn’t do it.
I hate that she has the guts to talk to me, I hate that she has such an effect on me. Why do I still get lust in her green ocean eyes and why does it bring such calm to me even though a storm of anger is raging in my head and I just don't know who to unleash it all on?
Oh, I do know who deserves the full wrath of my anger, It's Edwina. My dumb f**k wolf and heart would never allow me to do so!
I can only do so much for her. if I inflict physical pain on her, I am just punishing myself because I would never be able to live with myself knowing what I did.
So emotional pain it is...
"Mates are supposed to be each other's bane of existence but I will be a thorn, a poison to you. I will marry Rebecca, and she will take your place.” I say after dropping the fuckin whip when I walked away from her, leaving her there in the throne room.
My mind is clouded by anger and pain and most of the anger I feel is for myself...why am I weak and why can’t I punish her?
I walked out of the throne room to find some of the servants and Rebecca waiting out there for me, expecting that they were gonna hear loud cries of pain but I am truly sorry to disappoint them.
“My king, what happened there?” Rebecca ran towards me trying to catch up with my speed while holding a pack of ice to her neck.
“What happened, I didn’t hear her cries...is she so stubborn that she wouldn’t even cry!” she asked looking for words from my mouth.
“Rebecca, go and get your neck treated, I don't think it is wise to put an ice pack directly over that, it’ll leave a very ugly scar on you,” I said ignoring all her questions.
“That doesn’t matter to me my king, all I want to know is if that evil b***h has been punished for what she did to me!” she said, her voice, shaky with anger.
“Yes she has been punished Rebeca, every day she stays in this palace is a punishment for her and I will make sure of that...I will make sure the air in this place suffocates her till she begs for death and even then....” I stopped quickly after I found out that I was showing too much emotion to Rebeca.
She shouldn’t see me like this... this is between Edwina and I.
“What is wrong majesty, why did you stop talking, what’s wrong?” she asked
“Never mind Rebeca, please go get yourself treated...” I walked away from her hoping she would leave me the hell alone before I unleashed my anger on her.
As I was walking back to my chambers, Gracie caught up with me...
“I can see that you were unable to punish her Your Majesty...” she said
“What do you mean?” I said arcing one of my brows.
“It’s no news to everyone here in the palace that you have feelings for Edwina. She is your mate and the mates bond between the both of you is still very strong. Even if you try to hide it, it shows and Rebeca your fiancé can see it!” she said
“What do you want from me, Grace? You were the one who asked me to make her suffer and that is exactly what I am doing. It doesn’t matter if I can’t inflict physical pain on her, I am getting married to Rebeca instead of her.
Rebeca is taking her position while she will remain her servant and watch the life she could have had if she weren’t a stupid traitor!”
“Well I’m beginning to think it was a mistake to suggest that idea to you because it’s just the first day and look how much harm she has caused,” Gracie said. “Your Majesty, I think we should just execute her, forget what I said...”
“There will be no execution happening anymore, anywhere. It is too easy Gracie; you were right the first time. Don't worry, I am in control of the situation.” I said shutting her up and walked away from her and the conversation.
I don't want to hear any more of this!
Why does her name keep haunting me and everyone in this palace?
I need to get my attention to other pressing matters.
