As early as possible, I woke up to clean the party hall and cooked the food they asked me to cook.
The party had just begun and I felt tired from doing all the work.
I walked over with a plate of food in my hand but I tripped and lost my balance. I closed my eyes as I expect the pains of falling but I felt I tight grip around my waist and an earthly smell filled my nose. My uneasiness disappeared as I took in the calming scent. I opened my eyes to meet the golden eyes of Declan. I don't know how it happened but who on earth will believe that Declan will save me the disaster of knocking the plate away. His lashes flickered and he released his grip from my waist.
" Thank.." I was about to say thank you when I remembered that I am not allowed to talk to the imperial sons. I gulped the lump in my throat and looked down on my feet.
" Be careful when walking" He said with a stern tone and I nod my head obidiently .
I raised my head up to see him wiping his hand with an harkerchief and my heart wrenched in pains.
" Hey slave, bring the plate over here" one of the guest called and I rushed over with the plate In my hand.
" Drop it quickly and leave" the lady said in an irritating voice and I went down on my knees and placed the plate on the table.
" You smell so bad" she huffed and I scurried away in fright before I get punished.
Aren't they worried that the food will get contaminated because it was prepared by a dirty slave like me?
I dropped the last plate in my hand and turned to leave the party when I saw Deforest flirting with all kind of beauties around him.
I wonder why a responsible imperial son will have to flirt with women.
" What are you still doing in the party?" His cold voice send chills down my spine.
" Look at her, she looks so dirty like a pig" He mocked and the ladies he was flirting with went into hilarious laughter.
My heart squeezed in agony and my eyelids burned with tears.
" Yes she is just a slave and she smell so bad . Goodness I'm going to throw up" one of the lady wrung her neck and my eyes couldn't bear the burning anymore.
Why would they eat my food when they know I smell so bad?
I had wanted to ask this question but I don't have the courage to do that.
I turned around to leave when the wolf in my body suddenly woke up. My eyes twinkled as a particular smell filled my nose. I stopped in my track and turned back to trace the smell only for me to meet the icy eyes of Deforest.
Oh no, how can I be mated to Abysess? I screamed internally and Declan points his index finger at me from where he is standing.
His face was expressionless that you can barely get a hint of what is going on in his mind.
' is he going to reject me? ' I kept asking myself none stop as my heart raced so fast in my chest.
"I am going to be a free girl finally. Our mate is Deforest the imperial heir." My wolf screamed and I ignored her with my eyes locked with Deforest eyes.
Everything seems to stop working and the only thing I could hear was the thumping sound of my heart and the excited screaming of my wolf.
" How dare you?" Deforest asked with his voice distant than before and I flinched back in fright.
The depth of his voice seems to swallow me and I felt my legs shaking uncontrollably.
" I Deforest Dwayne hereby rejects Kianna Martin's as my mate" He decreed and I closed my eyes to calmly accept his rejection with tears streaming down my face.
I knew right from the beginning that he will not accept someone like me as his mate. I am a slave. A week smelly omega to be precised and he is an imperial dragon heir. We are different breeds from different worlds and I'm not up to his standard so I shouldn't be hoping for an acceptance.
I was about to accept his rejection when he launched towards me and pinned me to the ground.
" Say you can't accept the rejection" he let out in a commanding tone as he held my neck so tight.
Tears streamed down my eyes as I struggled to breath. His breath fan my face and I opened my eyes wide with my hand on his chest.
" Say you can't accept the rejection" He yelled again.
He probably want me not to accept the rejection so that I can never find a mate again .
" You are hurting me" I winced in pains hoping he will release his grip from my neck but no, I just gave him more strength to hurt me because I am hurting.
The people in the party all stood and watched with kin interest. No one felt compassion for me as they find the scene entertaining.
" Say you can't accept the rejection or I will k!ll you with my hands" He said and I can see his forest eyes burning with flames.
" I accept the rejection" I said hard and a blow landed on my belly.
The wolf in me growled and I coughed out blood.
Deforest was pushed away by deranged Declan and I forced myself up before staggering away coughing none stop with my clothes stained with blood.
