Chapter Seven
Liam’s face became so red and swollen with anger. All he could do was stare deeply at Chloe who was now crying uncontrollably knowing that what she has done will only force Liam to treat her more badly.
“Just how dare you? How dare you raise your hands to my face, and you stand there to batter words with me to the point of letting your hands on my face.”
Liam was so angry as he walked back and closer to Chloe.
“You provoked me so badly, why would you speak about my family in that manner?”
“You must really think I feel any form of remorse or regret about the way I spoke to you, but here is a quick one, I don’t care how you feel, and you know that very well.”
Before Chloe could get a chance to bark another word out on Liam, he folded his hands into a fist and was about to hit her so badly, that was when Aiden has seen enough from his hiding place. He quickly came out and held Liam’s hands in the air.
“Let go of that girl, you know as a respected prince and future Alpha of a pack as glamorous as this, I wasn’t expecting this from you, Royalty does not raise it’s hands in anger, you are to defend your people right? Prince Liam?”
Liam was so scared and felt defeated by the words that Aiden had said and the way he also stopped him from hitting Chloe he was angry that Aiden had to see this.
Liam became scared of the whole situation, judging from the power and position that Aiden held in high standards compared to his, he was capable of doing just anything to him and his pack and that would bring so much disgrace to the Royal home, he thought. Liam felt ashamed and covered his face as he couldn’t even look at Aiden or Chloe anymore.
“You have no words to offer for what you have done right? You brought a girl that’s supposed to be your Luna and mate outside of the pack, so you can lash unfitting words at her and then hit her?”
At this point Aiden became even more angry as he slipped one of his hands outside his pocket and pointed a finger at Liam.
“Now, never think about ever letting your hands touch this lady again, and don’t you ever let your hands touch any lady at all because then you would have to face the consequences and please don’t think too much about the consequences it’s something that will really frown at you and teach you a good lesson.”
“Come on, let’s go.”
Holding on tightly to Chloe’s hands, Aiden led her out of Liam’s face and took her inside, after the much lecture he vented out on Liam, Chloe couldn’t help but feel pitiful, although she was very scared of what will happen next, of course Liam will mention this to his family and things won’t be funny for her.
“Oh shit, how dare that little spoilt dirty brat, urgh______”
Liam hit is forehead hardly against the wall as Aiden took Chloe away, that was the only thing he did perfectly well each time he was very angry, he wasn’t angry that Chloe actually slapped him, he was feeling powerless about how Aiden had spoken to him even after he probably watched Chloe slap him, why would he defend her so much to that point, he just met her today and now it has gotten this far?.
Liam was still in his foul mood and was thinking about everything that happened as he stood at the wall and made no move back inside, but he noticed the red moon rising up and obviously it was time to commence the ceremony, he then dusted his butt and headed back inside.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
All the moment as Chloe sat at the ceremony, she locked eyes with Aiden who wouldn’t stop staring at her and whispering words to the seer and at the end, the seer eventually looks at her too, it was becoming a difficult thing for her, she didn’t know what would happen and what if Aiden decides to take everything he has seen or found out about today very personally then that would make Liam’s family to hate on her some more and she knew the consequences.
“Oh my goodness” Chloe murmured to herself immediately she saw the seer rise to go make an announcement, as from facts, she knew what was going to be announced, fear gripped her as the sit she sat on became very uncomfortable for her, she kept turning and turning but there was nothing she could do about the situation of things.
As the seer stood up, it was like a flash before Chloe’s eyes as she kept her gaze on her.
“Good day Great people, I am very excited to be here in a ceremony that is this peaceful, not once has the creakstone pack held this ceremony and honoured us this way, but this was the first time we had to come here and the young prince is already of age to be mated and marked to a lady.”
Immediately the seer had diverted her words to focus on Liam’s mating, Chloe knew that all had ended and the truth was going to take it’s course.
“Now, we’ve all been made to understand and believe that the creakstone pack has found a mate for the prince and that they have been marked and mated. But I wish to inform you all that lies has been brooded here today, we all have been deceived to join in a chorus that is not a lyric and line in the song’s hook___
“Although I may not know why, but the creakstone pack prince hasn’t not marked his mate and future Luna this is not just a deceitful act from the entire creakstone pack, it is considered very insulting to us the Lycans.”
The seer hadn’t finished with her words when the whole crowd began to murmur in surprise.
