Jason came back home looking down cast, he just heard very terrible news that made him sad. A little girl whom he was so attached to that lived in his neighborhood was declared dead today. The little girl was the only person he made friends within his neighborhood, she came around often, and they played around together. Jason was so devastated after receiving the news that he drank to a stupor.
Jacinta, who was about to walkout out of her room, spotted Jason who was walking scatteredly and immediately understood that he was drunk. She immediately took advantage of the situation.
Jason, who was about to fall from staggering, unexpectedly felt a soft, tender hand holding him, stopping him from crashing hard on the floor. Jason couldn’t make out whose face it was because his vision was blurring. The only picture that came to his mind was the picture of the beautiful fairy he was in love with.
Jacinta smiled in satisfaction when Jason didn’t push her away as she had expected. He was indeed deeply drunk, and finally the universe has smiled at her. What she had been struggling to get was now given to her freely and easily. Tonight she will mate with the strongest Alpha and get pregnant with his baby and afterward marry him as she has always wanted. She couldn’t wait to experience tonight and tell her mother all of it.
Jacinta helped Jason to his room. She was about putting him to bed and then take advantage of his poor drunk self when Jason stood upright, pulled her closer to him, raised her jaw up with one of his fingers, he looked at her intensely, admiring her beautiful face. Jacinta was stunned by Jason’s action. Why was he looking at her, almost smiling like someone who was so enthralled? Jacinta watched as Jason observed every feature of her face. Jason caressed her cheeks gently and lovingly, surprising her further.
Jason couldn’t bring himself to undress her. He wanted to! He was already in the mood, but his body kept falling to him. It felt as though his body was chained to prevent him from proceeding.
He was supposed to have undressed her, so what was delaying him. This beautiful lady was the one he wanted all this year’s, now she was here with him, and he couldn’t bring himself to make love with her. Yes! Since he loved her so much, it was not just sex but love making.
Jacinta noticed Jason’s hesitation. Was he getting sober already? She needed to do this right now that she had the chance to. Jacinta was about pushing Jason to the bed when he held her hand to stop her.
“Damn! Ariella!” Jason uttered due to the arousal he felt and how unable he was to touch her. Jacinta froze! The sexual urge she had in her died immediately.
Who is Ariel?
Jacinta, like someone who had Just been stabbed in the chest, held her chest in pain and stepped back with tears welling up in her eyes. She ran back to her room without sparing Jason a glance.
****
Jacinta sobbed softly alone in her room, she felt sorrowful and broken. She was here trying all she could to make him love her, but he was busy chasing someone else. Who was this Ariel? She had never heard about anyone named Ariel before in this kingdom, or maybe there was someone, and she just didn’t know. Jacinta instantly regretted, while she left Jason without succeeding in her mission. If she had succeeded, there was a high possibility of her getting pregnant because she was ovulating.
What did she just do? Jason might have fallen had she not run away. Things might have ended up happening the way she wanted and she would bear his child and prove to that stupid Ariel that she was a nobody.
The more Jacinta thought about it, the more she hated herself for allowing her emotion get the best of her. What she had always prayed for came to her on a platter of gold, and she care freely lost it.
She was such a loser! Her mother was going to be so disappointed in her if she told her all that had transpired today.
Jacinta stepped out of the room and went to the guards’ quarter. One of the guards was in cohort with her, and luckily, she met him at the quarters. He was the one who gave her updates regularly on what happens inside this castle.
Jacinta had promised to make him her personal guard and promote him to the rank of the Chief guard if he cooperated with her. It was such a mouth-watering and promising offer that the guard couldn’t refuse. The rank of the chief guard came with so much respect, and he wanted that for himself.
“Search the whole kingdom and bring to me anyone/everyone called Ariella,” Jacinta ordered. She was personally going to kill anyone named Ariella. No one who wanted to take Jason away from her was qualified to keep living.
“Is that the name of His Majesty’s concubine?” The guard asked, knowing fully well how Jacinta was obsessed with his boss; she always paid him for information on the prince.
Jacinta rolled her eyes at him, and he immediately maintain. This stupid guard, what made him think he could ask her questions anyhow he wanted.
It seems she wasn’t hard on him, and he was already forgetting that he was nothing but a wretched pauper. All those promises she made to him were lies; she wasn’t going to fulfill any of those. When she was done using him, she will discharge him like the trash he was.
Moreover, she was only pretending to be nice, so she could make Jason see as her a good person.
***Jason’s Pov***
The picture of his soulmate was what filled his mind since the beginning of this heated session. He knew she wanted him too because she didn’t stop him. When she tried to push him to bed, something he couldn’t understand took over his body, and he held her hand to prevent her. He didn’t know how to explain to her that he wanted her too but couldn’t, so the only words that came out from his mouth were,
“Damn! Ariella.”
Wait! Was that her name? He never knew her name, the only name he could remember hearing that day was that of her elder sister.
Why did his mouth utter that name?
He noticed that his beloved had halted what she was doing, he raised his face to look at her with questioning eyes, when suddenly his blurred vision became clear. Damn. So it was Jacinta all along. He has been admiring Jacinta all this while? He suddenly felt weakened and disgusted at everything, and hence could only watch her silently while as she ran away like someone who was crazy. Not only that, but he was thankful he didn’t end up having sex with her, if not, he would never forgive himself.
It was his mother’s fault, if she hadn’t allowed Jacinta to stay here, all this wouldn’t have happened. Jacinta was a sly fox who was ready to take advantage of any little provided opportunity.
Jason angrily stormed into the bathroom. He turned on the hot shower and sponged himself hard, as though he were trying hard to remove some stubborn germs from his body. He sponged his skin hard until his skin almost bled.
