The Alpha King’s Fated Scarred Mate

Two steps closer to her, eventhough, Dain was issuing caveat to me, to stay away from her, but I was adamant in my decision.

My gaze dug into her, and she shuddered, but maintaining her villainous look.

I lowered my evil, and royal Aura, trying to force a smile at her. “It’s okay.” I said, barely in a whisper.

“You’re too young to be a killer. Who sent you?” I demanded with my arched brow, her breathing getting rapid.

She lay calm for the period my stares plunge into her skin. Oblivious of her actions, she stretched her both daggers down to my tummy.

Thanks to the wind which pushed me back, and hits back against her face, causing her head to hit against the wall of the cave.

I quickly hovered around her, halting her from trying any mischievous act again. My hands wrapped around the length of her hair as a leverage, pulling her face up to mine.

She was unyielding, her eyes simmering as I forced her to look straight into my eyes. My fingers dug into her skin eventhough she was putting on a thick layer of clothes.

She winced, then I caught hold of her tongue which seems to be short. My eyes squinted at my sight, as if I had just seen the most formidable of my life.

Her eyes glowed yelow as she stared at me, repulsive glowing in her onyx eyes. It was as if she hoard malicious, evil killing Intent in her heart for me.

” what’s wrong, your highness? Just slit her throat and let continue our journey before they get there before us.” Dain hollered behind me.

My hands waved in the air for his attention. “Her tongue seems to be cut. Who must have done that? She can’t talk!” I said, as Dain arrived at my side.

Dain was quiet for a while as he forced her jawline, parting her lips against get will to see what I was talking about.

“Holy shit!” Dain narrowed his eyes In disgust.

Dain hands ran fastly at the assassin’s cloaks, ad he turned them apart revealing her round fleshy bosom, a tattoo at the top, and another at her right arms.

“What the hell are you doing, Dain?” I demanded in displease. I was irked at his actions, taking off woman’s cloak.

“Need to check the rest of them.” Dain muttered in a sluggish tone.

One! Two! Then to six or seven, I watched Dain turning off their dresses. They’re all women with the same tattoo signs, no tongue.

Seems like their tongues were cut off!

“This is a sheer wickedness” I said under my breath.

These girls were either in their sixteen or seventeen and we’re already exposed to the harsh and evil world at such their age.

I was contently convinced, thises girls either didn’t choose this life for themselves. Someone, had choosen to give them this kind of lives.

“What the hell does this tattoo means? Why are their tongue cut off?”

“perhaps the tattoo was a brand! Their means of identification and the cutting off of the tongue was to ensure if they are cut, they won’t give out information about their existence!”

“Whoa!” I exclaimed at dain’s theory. Seems, he’s smart and advanced in knowledge.

“Your assumptions seems surreal but I doubt if it’s true.”

“he’s right! You’re the one wrong.” The winds blew to my ears.

” Those are brands of the Athens female warrior’s who were kidnapped at their early age and trained as assassin. The cost in securing their services is damn expensive, four tael of gold, and only the wealthiest could have sought their services.”

” And where could those wealthiest have come from?” I tried to ask myself.

“Given the fact you’re the introvert who doesn’t involves yourself in politics then, until your trial which almost cost you life, no one knows you or presume you as a threat expect for the royal house.”

” We all know only the immediate family of the alpha King could rule over Australia kingdom, so the rest of the pack apart moon valley pack can not vyied for the position, so, it’s only the royal house from Australia, the Moon valley pack who could have summon this beautiful female warriors.”

” And who could hoard golds in abundance?” The winds rhetorical questions send spikes of cold down my spine.

“Who is their leader?” I said, trying to know.

“Well, they have come from a far away kingdoms to fight against you. Whether you leave her alive, she would still kill herself over her failure in bringing your head!” The winds said again.

” My head?” I retorted.

Dain narrowed his gaze at me to check if I was still intact.

“You keep talking to yourself. Why?” He asked me with tinge of emotions in his voice.

“Was I?” I rolled my eyes on him.

“So what should I do?” This time I was talking to the wind.

There was a short mayhem before the winds voice finally broke through the mayhem. “Keep her safe! Her name is Nana.”

“Nana…” i drawled, locking eyes with her.

She stared at me with her widened eyes, tears almost stinging her eyes.

“It’s okay, Nana. You’ll be safe with me.” I said, trying to assure her.

The resentments in her eyes began to fades, and a light smile tug on the side of my lips.

“You better disarm get before she strikes you dead! She’s deadly than a spear!” The winds warned me.

I drew in a breath, with Dain leaning against the wall of the cave, his gaze fixed on me.

“What are we doing with her?” He asked.

I was quiet for a moment, deliberating on the decision, the advantages and consequences of my decision.

“We keep her alive, and she would follow us to the dragon’s Stone.”

“What?” Dain’s eyes widened in shock at my words, his mouth agaped.

“Yes! We should give her a chance to rectify her ways. I’m sure this wasn’t the life she had wished for.”

” Still unsatisfactory at your analysis!” Dain countered.

” Don’t you see their tongues cut off at such an early age. What crimes must thru have committed to deserve this?”Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

” Capital offences! Daughter of the rebellion family.” At the mention of the lady words, Nana eyes darted to Dain in fury.

“Why is she staring like that at me? I might kill her before we leave here.” Dain chimed.

“when are we leaving for the dragon’s Stone?”

He asked, shifting me to my main primary purpose in which I was at the forest.
