Death On The First Night
1126 Words
Loiret staggered out of the car, the door held open by a tough man with a scar running down his face. She gulped down hard as she raised her head up to look at the palace in front of her.
The palace of the Lycan King Zayne. It was majestic, beautiful and yet Loiret could not help but notice that it seemed to have an evil aura just like the king who lived in it.
It had been almost a day since she had given herself out to the Lycan King and immediately she had done so, he had ordered for her to be transported to his kingdom.
"Get it moving." the tough guy behind her said and Loiret glanced back at him sheepishly, not knowing where to go to.
"That way." the tough guy pointed to the right side of the main building and Loiret hurried towards the path.
She had no idea what she would become of her here. All she knew was that she no longer had a life. Well, it wasn't like she had a life in her Pack.
Loiret sighed softly, recalling what the Pack had looked like. The beautiful, glorious Yellow Moon Pack had been razed down and Loiret recalled seeing people running around, hearing painful cries and hearing people crying over their dead ones. The attack was stopped before the car taking her out of the Pack was out of the Pack but the few hours of attack had ruined a lot.
It would take years for the Pack to recover from the attack that had caught them all by surprise. The Pack now belonged to the conqueror and Loiret wondered how they would survive under the control of King Zayne.
Her body shuddered as she recalled the way he had killed Elder Tristan and ripped off the head of the female trainer who spiked her drink. Loiret shut her eyes, feeling tears returning to her eyes.
"No, don't leave. Loiret, you have to stay back, please." She could recall Alpha Daniel's words as she was led out of the midst of everyone and she could also recall the evil look on the King's face.
Loiret missed her step and quickly opened her eyes, getting a grip on herself.
"Don't be a fool" The tough guy behind her said gruffly and Loiret settled her gaze on the building they had just gotten to.
Very much smaller than the main building but it was beautiful and clearly expensive. The tough guy grumbled some words and grabbed her by the arm, leading her into the house.
He stopped when they got to the living room and Loiret was quite surprised to see young ladies hurrying and scurrying around, some in maid uniforms which was an all black.
"Amanda!" The tough guy called out and a woman was there in a few seconds.
Loiret was almost shocked at the speed with which the woman had showed up in front of them.
"Here you go." The tough guy pushed her towards Amanda and Amanda immediately scrunched up her face.
"A human?" She asked.
"No, an unbloomed wolf."
"A wolf?! Are you out of your senses?! His Majesty will spill our blood on this very...."
"His Majesty brought her into the kingdom." the tough guy cut Amanda off and Amanda furrowed her brows, in surprise.
"Really?"
"Just keep her here until His Majesty arrives and gives his orders on her." The tough guy said and without waiting another second, turned away and walked out of the place.
"What's your name?" Amanda asked Loiret.
"Loiretta but you can call me Loiret, ma'am." Loiret replied quickly.
"Do you know why his majesty brought you here?" Amanda asked and Loiret gulped down.
"King Zayne brought me here as his possession and tool" Loiret replied and Amanda stared at her from her head to her toe. And yes, Loiret was bare footed.
"I hope you are strong. You are going to suffer a whole lot." Amanda smirked.
"What do you mean by that, ma'am?" She asked, her voice shaky.
"Follow me." Amanda replied instead and Loiretta followed after her.
"His Majesty hates everyone and although I am the head of maids here, I don't dare to serve his majesty for fear of offending him and being killed. We lose a maid or two every week here. You make a mistake while serving His Majesty and you will immediately be executed on the spot. But more than anything, it is known that His Majesty detests wolves..." She suddenly turned to Loiret.
"And seeing as you are one, I can already picture your butchered body laying at His Majesty's foot." She said and Loiretta felt fear wash over her.
But thinking about it, Loiretta figured out that she no longer had a life and she wasn't supposed to have emotions too. She was now a tool and only had to do as she was told to do without protest and even if she died the next day, it wasn't supposed to matter as it meant that her owner wanted to discard her.
Yet, she had just one question to ask the beastly King before she would totally let go of her identity and accept her life as a tool. She had to ask him if they really spent the night together or if nothing had happened between them that night.
Loiret hoped nothing had happened. She could not even think about her being f****d by the same man known as the devil and who had also proved himself to be one.
"Here, you will be in this room. For a few days if you do last for a few days." Amanda shrugged and opened the door to a room.
"Keep to yourself as much as you can. Everyone here hates wolves. Lie that you are human and you might save yourself a lot of beatings. You will serve his Majesty once he arrives. Just make a mistake while serving and let him kill you with one thrust of his claws inside of you." She said.
"Is... Is the King that bad?" Loiret asked.
"You won't ask that question if you know the Devil King even a tiny bit. Just follow my advice and die on the first night. You don't want to find out what you will go through if you stay alive here. Goodbye." Amanda waved and just like that she was gone, leaving a tired and shaky Loiret.
She walked into the room and leaned against the wall, shutting her eyes but immediately she did, she heard voices. That of Alpha Daniel, then that of the wolves dying and then she saw the snapped off head rolling down.
She opened her eyes, panting heavily.
"The Devil King Zayne."
