Growl For Your Soul

Chapter 31

Zinnex's POV

"Did you just say that Alaistair was acting odd lately?" Nashira looked at me confusingly , "Indeed , yes , I am a hundred percent sure that your future husband said something like this to me." I said confidently. At first I don't give a s**t to it , but then several threats from him came in. If he was actually serious , then the issue must be fixed.

"I mean , he was acting strangely these suns ," Nashira uttered while took a sip of her tea ,"He was up from bed till 3 or four in the morning.To himself who's extreme concerned with his health , this was quite a odd one." "Do you think Alaistair was alright? If he's in Meraks , he was probably send into the cage. Which the purpose was to heal mental issues Anitures." Mihaka said with a creepy smirk that crawled upon her face.

I looked at Nashira while she looked at me with her fan on her face , we then looked at Mihaka who's calmed down as she have a hand full of cinnamon roll in her hand. "So , you want me to ask Alaistair courteously to stop causing chaos on topics of you and Agrona?" "Well , if I didn't mind his actions , why would I tell you about it? He sounded like 'I'm going to kill you and served you on the lunch table'." I said while Nashira's face was darkened a bit.

"Ugh....Nana?" "Why don't you just get along already?" I tilted my head as she closed her fans and glared at me , "Every single word from your filthy mouth , that entire conversation was how much worst was Alaistair. Can't you just see the greater side of him?!" I was shocked by how Nashira react , "Nana , I'm just helping! Who knows if he will harmed you , even people of Polastra?!" I exclaimed as a heavy slap came across my face. 

"Nya- Nashira!" Mihaka who squealed with concerned as she ran to me , and held me by the arm. "Not even a word , you birdie!," After she threw a temper tantrum to Mihaka , she turned back to me ,"Listen , Zinnex Langford! I don't care about your 'stupid tantrums that my Alaistair' caused on you. He did so , probably because you deserve them." I narrowed my eyebrows as she said so. "What had gone into you , Nashira? Saying the bad side of Alaistair doesn't mean I don't get along with him. and have you realised that the words you said would hurt my self-esteem?!" Finally , I had enough as I pushed Mihaka away and pulled a argument with weird behavior Nashira.

"Well , I thought you don't have a self-esteem system and it's not even my place to be concerned if you have one." She answered me coldly ,"Well , I can be 100 percent sure that you're from the North Pole. Thanks the help of your cold like ice heart!" I yelled as I felt rage running through my veins. "Apparently , not just you don't have self-esteem , you seem to not have a self-hygiene. Do you know how disgusting you smelt like rotten flesh of humans or rotten frozen eel? Sure your father be terribly disappointed for such terrible hygiene daughter of his," My fist curled as she mentioned my father , "Oh right , Your father was unconscious after was defeated by Chyenas. Maybe he's unconscious to his dea-"

Suddenly , my world turned dark as I saw a bronze glow in front of me as it blinded my eyes.

By the second I snapped out to reality , Nashira was on the ground with a scar on her hand while I was on the ground too....with a huge pain upon my face. "Nashira!" "Zinnex!" I placed my hand on my face as Agrona moved it away as he had a face of concerned. "What did your crazy wife did to her , Agrona?!" I turned to find Alaistair who had his maiden in his face , looking at me full of rage.

"I-It wasn't my fault who hurt her. She scarred me too!" I yelled at Alaistair as soon as he grabbed me by the collar , choking me to death , talking to me with his saliva split to my face ,"Don't talk to her in such proud tone. I'm sure that this behavior of yours was because Agrona proposed to you and you started to look down onto Lady Mihaka and Nashira , didn't you?" I narrowed my eyes slowly , thanks to the pain on my face.

"What the hell are you talking about?!" "I believe Agrona , there's the need to temporarily divorced with your wife , in order to prevent chaos in palace. Your wife had clearly crossed the line." Alaistair adviced as he ignored me and turned to Agrona. "What do you mean 'temporarily divorced with my wife'? The news had spread in the world and you're expecting to humiliate our nation?!" "Well , we can held another party , specifically to announce you temporarily divorce?" 

Like seriously , what had got into this fella's nerve?!

"What's with the noise?" I turned and found King Bergstorm along side Iyuna and guards behind us. "Father! Mother! Zinnex Langford had scarred Nashira by her proud behavior! I hope you will send her on trial and perhaps imprisoned her!" Iyuna walked to me as she glared at me. My face was written with terror , afraid if she accept the request of their eldest son. 

Instead I was pulled into a hug by Iyuna while hearing her sad sounds , "Oh my sweet Zinnex! What happened to that gorgeous face of yours?! Such a shame that it was scarred now!" "M-Mother , but look at what she done to Nashira!" Alaistair sadi while psuhed me away and he dragged Nashira hand into Iyuna's face. Iyuna just looked at it one second as she uttered , "It will heal soon. Unlike Zinnex's." Her words had charged the fuel to Alaistair's rage. 

"B-but she had spread untrue rumours and ruined my name!" "Are there any rumours about you around the palace? Cause I don't think I have heard any of them." King Bergstorm asked full of demand as Alaistair only gone silent by that question. "A lesson for you my son. If you are willing to be king , learn a bit from the humble Agrona himself. You however were spreading bad words of Zinnex herself. Show some respect to the next Queen of Paiogs , perhaps Lionards with it." 

The crowd , included the Bergstorm brothers and the maidens of theirs , looked at the king with shocking eyes. I blinked for seconds , while pinching my cheeks , forgetting there's a scar on my cheek. As I did so , more blood came out and Agrona quickly dismissed us first , heading back to our shared chamber.

Agrona's POV

"A- Aargh....." Zinnex hissed as Osiris attach medics on her scars. "Dude , Polastra claws weren't something to mess around with." "I believe my injuries had proven the statement." She uttered as Osiris placed a plaster on her face and dismissed us. 

She first looked at me but quickly looked away as I grabbed her by the arm and start yelling in her face ,"What are you even trying to do?!" "W-what do you mean what am I trying to-" "You just yelled at my brother and almost died under his iron grasp! Are you trying to get yourself killed?!" She looked away from me while I dragged her eyes back , having forced eye contact between us.

Till I saw her eyes of terror , I quickly let go as I apologized. "I-I just don't want you to be gone . Zinnex..." "Agrona..." "I mean , I couldn't find such a fair maiden like you who would accept...the curse upon me...." "Agrona , stop please..." She uttered while cupped her hand on my cheek , "What if I loss y-" Before I could proceed , Zinnex pressed her lips on mine passionately , as soon as she deepened the caress with her hand on my thigh.

As we parted away , she hugged me and placed her head on my chest , "I don't mind if you're a human , Agrona. You're just all I need. You're a drug I needed for the rest of my life. So , quit the blabbering already." I smirked by her sentence as I placed my hand on her head , patting her head , lullabying ourselves into slumber....  

Nashira's POV

Me who's now looking at Alaistair who insist the maids to bandage me up , I reached out my hand as I ruffled his head and touched his ear. He froze as he looked at me eagerly and held my hand even tighter. By a quick instant , he was on top of me on the bed with my wrist grabbed by his on top of me.

"A-Alaistair?" "Nashira~ My love~" He said while grabbed my hand and caressed it. "What made me deserve you , hm~" "A-Alay? Are you drunk?" I said with concerned as I moved my hand to his cheeks. As I had such guess in mind , in fact he didn't have the smell of beer from his breath. "Oh I'm drunk over you~ In fact , I got an announcement to make but for spoilers , you'll get to know first~" I blinked my eyes as I smiled nervously to him , "S..Sure , what's the announcement?"

He smiled as he sat next to me , making my head leaned on his chest as he practically combed my white silver hair , "You'll be Queen of Paiogs , along side me. Together , we shall rule Paiogs , perhaps along side Lionards and other nations of Anitures." I widened my eyes as I heard the announcement , 'wasn't that something that King Bergstorm said to Zinnex a while ago?"

"D..Darling , but I thought Agrona and Zinnex were ruli-" " NOT A WORD OF THOSE PEASANTS!!!" he yelled as he grabbed me by the wrist and pressed his lips on my neck as he bit. I gulped as he licked the blood. "They're just looking down to us , they think we're weak to defeat them! Listen , there's only you and me who are rightful to the throne. Agrona and Zinnex were merely peasant or prisoners once we succeed. Or perhaps we kill them if possible~" 

I choked a bit as I heard what he just said , "K-K-Kill? That's...probably unnecessary right?" "It was definitely necessary! I had been looked down since he was born and was better than me in everything!," I looked at him who's throwing his stupid temper tantrums ,"Listen , this was the only way I could prove myself better than Agrona while you could prove that you're a better queen compared to that p***y!" 

I was terrifying as he lifted my chin upwards with a terrifying smirk upon his face. 'When did he got so competitive?' "Oh , the aroma of yours~" "*gulp* Alaistair Bergstorm? From Paiogs to Polastra?" I gulped as he stood up , remain straddling on my laps , as he ToOk OfF hIs ShIrT?! "A-Alay?!" I was cut off by a rough caress on the lips , we soon parted away as I quickly breath for air.

"In the order to let my grand plan succeed , we must continue the marking ritual. Did I made myself clear , Nashira?" I nodded my head as he proceed caressing me throughout the night... I felt my walls tightened up.... Sweat rolled down from my head and my skin was warmed up by his hot breath.... Every second he came into me , I looked into his eyes..... They're written with lust and love.... But there's ninety percent of lust....I would say...

After that fiery love night , I had fell slumber in his arms , until a sound of window tapping and the sound of Alaistair who got up from bed , dressed and opened the door. I opened my eyes as the tiny as possible as I noticed a hawk hybrid who's standing by the railing of the balcony while Alaistair had gotten back to the table , writing a respond. "Tell your king the plan had gone the best. but he would ensure my rightful place." "Hehe , anything!" The hawk chuckled as he flew away , making Alaistair shut the doors and turned back to me. I pretended i was awake by the noise , grunted "Alay.... Who's.... there?" I questioned as he walked back to me and laid me back onto the bed.

While pretending to fall asleep , he hummed "Nana , my love.... I shall ensure that this was the only way to change our fates. You will have the best.... Trust in me...."
