REJECTED MATE : CHAPTER 51 – 60
By Rosy Johnson
[ÂNÂL QUICKIE]
Hawk stopped in his tracks, his eyes wide with shock. If they are not attacking him then why did they attack Viper?
He looked around, still thinking of the answer to his when his gaze met the answer
“The Demon Blade,” he muttered, his already wide eyes widened even more.
He picked it up and survey it.
What is this blade doing in here?
“Your job is to guild my door post,” he heard their queen voice and quick turned to look at her.
She didn’t have any veil covering her face and thankfully he didn’t look at her face.
“Her Majesty,”
“What are you doing here?” She asked.
Hawk hesitated, his body was still covering Viper so the four tigers roared and howled, daring him to wast another minute.
“Him, her Majesty,” he shifted to the side.
Queen Lumira raise her brows.
Strange! She’s supposed to feel hurt for losing her mate yet again but she felt nothing. Maybe she locked her ability to feel far away in her mind but this was her mate and she’s supposed to feel something…. Anything at least but all she got was….
She wasn’t even pitying the guy that has been reduced to little if not nothing!
“Take him to the healer, report to the royal chef, I’m starving,” she turned to her demons, spreading her arms in invitation.
The four tigers jumped onto the large bed, one after another. The first tiger curled up beside her, its head resting on her lap. The second tiger mirrored the first, its head also on her lap.
The third tiger rested its head on her chest, looking up at her with adoring eyes. The fourth tiger came and rested its head on her shoulder, licking her cheek affectionately.
With a contented sigh, she closed her eyes, enjoying the warmth and comfort of her demons.
“What did I tell you guys about hurting people? Huh?” She asked, and opened her eyes.
The one on her lap made a low sounds And She began to absentmindedly stroke his fur. She ran her fingers through his thick coat, marveling at its softness. The second tiger leaned into her touch, as if it were being massaged.
“Why did you hurt him so bad?” She asked softly and stopped what she was doing.
The first tiger nuzzled her hand, encouraging her to keep petting it. The fourth tiger purred even louder, clearly enjoying the attention.
“Don’t reduce anyone to that level again, is that understood?” She glanced at them.
They all froze like cute puppies.
With a smile on her face, Queen Lumira playfully brushed the fur of the first tiger, eliciting a happy purr from the beast. The second tiger nuzzled her hand, and she scratched it behind the ears.
The third tiger rested its head on her shoulder, and she gave it a kiss on the top of its head. The fourth tiger was getting impatient, pawing at her leg to get her attention.
“Look at you,” She laughed and gave it a hug.
REJECTED MATE : CHAPTER 51 – 60
FÎGHTÎNG ARENA
The big hall was silent, expect for the sound of chairs being Carrie by Niko, Owen, Quinn, Declan and Violet.
They are actually arranging the place cos the battle will soon begin.
“Who do you think will win?” Quinn asked softly.
“Imogen?” Violet replied more like a question.
“I doubt that,” Niko said, he dropped the chair in his hands then stood straight.
“Lyla proposed the fight, who knows why she proposed a fight knowing fully well Imogen was stronger?” He added.
“What if she has been training for a long time?” Owen chipped in.
“Exactly my thoughts, but come to think of it, Imogen is a weirdo and a longer, so she might have practiced,” Quinn said.
“Loner you say, have seen her talking to that human more than twice,” Niko replied and her eyes widen.
“Imogen??”
“Yes,” he nodded.
They all exchange glances
“Heard she marked him too?” Owen suddenly said.
Violet pushed him backwards playfully.
“That’s a lie!”
They all kept their gaze in Owen, wanting to hear more.
“When I went to call that Jericho guy, I overheard them talking about it though they said it was by mistake,” he added truthfully.
“Damn!!” Declan made a sound.
“Where is Asher?” Quinn suddenly asked
They walked over to the other side and began arranging the chairs, not that servants haven’t already done it but they wanted to be sure there’s no magic of any kind in here.
“And Marran,” Niko glanced at Owen.
They all looked at him once more and he smiled, a fake smile though.
“Will go get her,” he said and walked away. Walking out of the door he took his left corner, he was still walking down the long hallway when he saw Marran, A smile it on his lips but it suddenly vanished immediately Asher took her hand.
Curious, he began following them. They where far ahead so it will be difficult for them to notice him.
He followed them out of the building into another building that is meant for visitors, the honorables.
Owen hide behind a pole when Asher looked back, he head the door slam shut so he rushed forward. Owen stood in front of the door contemplating whether to open it or not.
He heard giggles and laughter so he held the handle and…
“Hahah, stop it Asher,” he heard Marrans voice.
“What? You used to like it when I touched you like that,” he heard Asher voice
“Yeah, Asher go gentle, I’m with child,”
Owen’s chest tightened.
“You still love me, right?”
“Of course, I mean what we have might not be the best but you’re better than Owen in bed,”
Owen couldn’t contain his tears as they came cascading down his cheeks. She’d said he was the best, she’d said she would never leave him for another even though the bound was there.
She promised to stick with him and maybe…. Just maybe with time she will tell him something about herself.
REJECTED MATE : CHAPTER 51 – 60
KITCHEN
Servants lined up, carrying the dishes into the palace and Jericho wasn’t one of them. He’d always been among them but surprisingly, Rhett didn’t let him go.
Sloane return with the maids who left earlier and he rushed to her.
“Why aren’t you guys picking me? Why am I here? I’m supposed to be among them,” he said desperately.
Of course he was desperate, he wanted to see the queen, he have not seen her since she left his prison cell in the morning and… Well, he wanted to see her.
“I’m sorry Jerry, but you can’t,” Sloane replied sadly.
“And why is that? I want to do my job? You guys said I’m one of the servants and belong In the kitchen so how am I going to do my job if you guys won’t appoint me to do anything?” He howled.
Sloane came close, placing a hand on his shoulder.
“Jerry boy, it’s the Prince’s order, my powers are limited to the royal family, they have the first authority!” Sloanna replied.
“But….”
“I’m sorry,” she walked away, Into the main kitchen.
Jericho roughed his hair, he glanced back and that was when Micah came out with a tray of beef so he took it from him.
“Give me this,”
“Hey! Wait…” Micah shouted but he was already gone.
Jericho got to the entrance of the royal dining but it was heavily guarded. Taking in a deep breath be summoned courage and approached the guards.
“The royal meal…”
“You can’t pass so go back,” One of the guards said, his face straight and serious.
“And why is that?” He suddenly snapped.
“Prince order, take him out of here,” the one who looks like their head ordered and four guards came forward.
“I will fûçking go on my own,” He shifted back and turned sadly, walking away.
He was heartbroken, does the queen know? Is she avoiding him? Did she ask her brother to do this? She still believe he did it didn’t she? Was she still mad at him?
MEANWHILE
Queen Lumira has already finished almost everything presented to her in the table yet she wasn’t Satisfied, she wanted more.
For some reasons she’d expected to see Jericho as one of the servants but he didn’t appear and that bothered her.
“If you keep up I’m afraid we might run foodrupt,” Prince Jasper said jokingly.
She was silent.
The empty bowel in front of her was switched with another, but she dropped her cutlery, pushing her chair backwards she stood up.
She wanted the Human in here damn it! Not this old faces.
It was just at the tip of her lips to send them to get him but her pride…. Aish!! It won’t let her.
“Where is the drew taking place?” She asked her brother.
“City hall,” he replied.
She doesn’t know how long the food could last and she hope she doesn’t open herself to feed and kîll someone.
Disadvantage of having all these powers that were mortgaged inside one person.
“Hawk, tell the shaman to go see Viper,” she ordered in her usual cold tone, stopping by the larges table which holds the hour glass.
She stood there staring at it as sand kept cascading down.
“Where is my handmaid?” She asked no one in particular.
“She went with Xander,” prince Jasper replied.
Queen Lumira gave the hour glass one last glare before walking away.
REJECTED MATE : CHAPTER 51 – 60
GRACE THE HEALER
“How is he?” Puppy asked, her eye puffy.
“I’m sorry, he didn’t make it,” Grace replied softly.
Puppy glanced at Viper who’s laying on the bed then up at the healers face.
“He has to, do something it’s your job!” She shouted.
“Puppy, I tried but I couldn’t heal his wounds, those wounds are like electric spark, once I touch him and call on my healing ability, I gets electrocuted so I have to stop before it kîlls me,” Grace explained.
“I know you want him to leave but there is nothing more I can do, Xander will help bury him and that’s all, he’s gone!” She added, packing her stuff in the old brown bag.
Puppy balled her fist enraged, it’s not over. The queen can’t send her demons to kîll viper. She might have thought she’s free but she’s not and this time she will get it in full.
“Jericho, is mine and no matter what, I will have him,” she thought silently.
REJECTED MATE : CHAPTER 51 – 60
6:02 PM~~ FÎGHTÎNG ARENA
The air in the arena was thick with anticipation, the tension palpable as everyone waited for the fight to begin.
The hall crowded with people, filled to the top.
The only sound was the soft rustle of the queen’s robes as she shifted in her seat. She was like a statue, her gaze fixed on the scene before her.
On either side of her, her brother and Xander were equally still, their faces impassive.
The silence was broken by the sound of footsteps as Imogen entered the arena.
Lyla was already waiting
She moved with an eerie grace, her steps light and silent despite the heavy boots she wore. As she approached the center of the arena, the crowd held its breath, waiting to see what would happen next.
She glanced up at the queen and slightly bowed in respect before facing Lyla.
Prince Jasper rose to his feet. He raised his arms, his voice strong and clear as he addressed the arena.
“Welcome to the grand drew of Fera!” he boomed. “Today, we witness a battle between two of our most skilled warriors. Lyla and Imogen. May the best warrior win!” He addressed.
As he finished speaking, a drum sounded, its deep reverberations filling the arena.
Without warning, Lyla and lunged at Imogen but she ducked quickly. their movements swift and fluid.
Surprisingly Imogen wasn’t fast.
The crowd gasped as they began to circle each other, their eyes locked in a fierce stare. The tension in the air was so thick it felt as though it could be cut with a knife.
Lyla charged again, her blade slashing through the air. Imogen barely had time to raise her own sword in defense but with a hard strike, Lyla knocked it off her hold, slicing through her right arm.
The crowd gasped.
Lyla shifted in a blur of movement, her human form melting into that of a monstrous wolf. Her claws were long and razor-sharp, her fangs glistening with saliva.
The air was filled with the scent of blood and fear, the tension palpable.
“I will end you just the way I did to your parents,” Lyla snarled.
At that statement Imogen’s head swagged and she staggered, Lyla used that opportunity to sank her claws deep into her right arms, ripping off flesh.
“ARGH!!!” Imogen howled in pain, calling on her beasts but they were far.
She could feel them but she wasn’t reaching them, in her head she could hear the roaring of her beast. Trying to take over her body but she couldn’t shift.
She fûçking couldn’t shift! She was healing either, her speed were slow. Goddess what’s happening?
With a swift move Lyla was behind her, sanking her claws deep on her back and pulling on her flesh.
Pain exploded in Imogen’s back, and she let out a scream of agony. Blood poured from the wounds as Lyla’s claws tore through her flesh.
“Imogen!!!” Zander yelled from the crowd, shocked to his bone.
“What’s going on?” Quinn glared at Niko
He ignores her so she looked at Violet.
“No idea, she’s not healing and her speed is not even a match to yours,” Violet replied, not taking her gaze from the center.
The beast within Imogen howled, demanding to be set free. Desperation and fear coursed through Imogen’s body. She could feel the beast within her struggling to break free, but something was holding it back.
It was as if a wall had been built between her and her inner animal, trapping it inside. The howls of rage and frustration echoed in her mind, making her head pound.
“Your Momma said you’d kill me but who is kîllîng who now?” Lyla leapt at Imogen, but she spun to the side, her arm outstretched. She caught Lyla’s wrist, stopping the claws just inches from her skin.
“I will kîll you,” With a grunt, she twisted Lyla’s arm, sending her sprawling to the ground.
Lyla landed hard, but before Imogen could move, she was back on her feet. She pounced again, slashing out with her claws. The nails ripped through Imogen’s clothes, tearing the fabric and cutting deep into her skin.
A crowd gasped.
🗣️She’s not that strong after all
🗣️Why isn’t she shifting?
🗣️Did she think she can take on a beast in her human form?
🗣️I think overconfidence has gotten into her
🗣️Lyla will rip her apart at this point.
🗣️Does anyone notice she’s not healing either?
🗣️ She’s slow? What makes her a warrior is she’s this slow?
Blood cascaded through her lap, creating a mini pool around her, The pain was searing, sending her to her knees and almost immediately Lyla tackled her to the ground.
The crowd held their breath.
“So where are your strengths now? Warrior! You have been injected with Venom and it has weaken all your muscles, you’re nothing now Imogen so just dîê the way your parents did,” Lyla swing the sword and Slash But Imogen blocked the attacked with both hands.
The tension skyrocketed, everyone rose to their feet….
With a scream of pain, the sword sliced through Imogen’s palm, blood dripping onto the floor. It continued its descent, coming to rest against her neck.
She felt a warm wetness as the blade sliced through her skin. The pain was excruciating.
Memories after memories clouded her mind at once, she remembered it all. Every conversation she had with Lyla at the battlefield was clear to her now.
Lyla was a Mage, seekers of the queen’s life.
The Mage know if the queen fall it will take just 1 year for Therians to lose their ability to shift and one by one they will start dying even before another will be chosen.
Her parents…. Her sister… Her kingdom… Her life.
With a roar that shook the walls of the arena, she went feral, shifting into her beast form.
Wide eyes widened, some popping out from their sockets.
The transformation was instant and violent, her body contorting and twisting. Bones snapped and muscles tore, and then it was over. Where Imogen had stood, a massive, hulking creature now towered over Lyla
Lyla’s eyes widened in terror as Imogen’s beast form towered over her. It was an enormous, Syfy-wolf, its claws and teeth glinting in the light. It stood on its hind legs, its front paws resting on Lyla’s chest, pinning her to the ground.
Lyla struggled to break free, but it was no use. She was helpless against the beast’s strength. Shock and terror was her second name..
How had her black Magic broken? Does that mean it wasn’t effective? How come she shifted three times her original size?
Prince Jasper should call off the fight cos this wasn’t Imogen, she’s possessed!!
Imogen took the sword, grabbing Lyla up by her neck she shoved the long sword inside her, targeting her Vâgîna but she got her âss instead.
Much better!
“How about ânal quickie??”
