The word from my father threw me back, the phone I was holding in my hand fell off my grip as the rush of terror took my feet back, my gaze rested on the man I called my father,
I was so shocked to make a sound,
I could have laughed and called it a joke, I could have thought he was playing a prank if I am not seeing his face at the moment, the scariest face you will ever see, it was grim and stern to the last, the scars he got from multiple wars made him more fearing…
I stared at him afraid of the man I had always seen as my father, everyone fears him except me but I think I’m now one of them, his expression was that one which can make you pee on your trouser so easily…
He is damn serious and was sure I have seen my mate, he wasn’t sceptical, he knew it for sure making me wonder where and how possible it is, I had been sure to keep it away from him,
Has someone reported to him??
I thought and shook my head sideways, it can’t be possible because not a single person knows about me and Elena,
“You heard me right?” Javier my father growled deeper and I swallowed the lump in my throat staring at him with my lips quivering, I was so dumb that I can’t even make a single sound,
“I am sure you got no problem with your ears, so you heard me right, after three days, if you don’t kill her, then watch and see what I’ll do!!… I had always taught you to reject at sight, but instead, you opened your heart to her… shit!” He cursed and glared at me like I did the most terrible thing on earth,
“Dad, what are you saying??…what mate?” I asked taking a deep breath to calm my nerves, I have to be calm and ease,
“Don’t dare to ask me any question, you should be thinking about how to take over this throne and that of the Silver Moon Pack and not getting useless and stupid!” He snorted with anger and disgust in his tone,
“Dad, we decided to trick Scarlett into thinking I’m her mate which is working fine, I made her believe that today, dad are you also getting tricked, she isn’t my mate!” I grumbled and with the speed of lightning, he got to where I stood and gripped my neck,
Before I could understand what was happening, he had already slammed me on the ground, I groaned wincing,
“Don’t think I’m stupid you little boy!!” He gruffed fuming,
I shut my eyes feeling like crying, just don’t tell me that my father already knows Elena is my mate and wants me to kill her??
Even when he had once told me to do that to my mate if I ever meet her, he had also told me to reject if I don’t want to kill, I should just do anything to be mateless so I can become stronger, powerful and heartless,
“That is the only way you can take over me when I decline!!” He had always taught me…
I had agreed to do as he said, I would always nod not knowing how hard and close to impossibility it was, I never knew it was this hard…
How on Earth can I reject Elena, how can I hurt her talk more of killing her???
I can’t…the ties between us are so strong and I might lose my life if I do all this…
“I won’t repeat myself, kill her in three days!” He growled with the grimmest face I had ever seen, his eyes were bloodshot and had no glint of emotion except that of rage and fury!
I swallowed nothing and deep breathe,
He left me there and stomped back into the house, I was drained, slowly, I sat up with my mouth agape,
Someone should just tell me I’m dreaming right now??
Oh no, this can’t be!!
I felt my eyes become wet,
I’m afraid dad would hurt her…
But does he know my mate is Elena? Or he just knew I have found a mate, he never mentioned her name??
Oh Gosh!
I don’t just understand what he means…
With a heavy heart, I got up from the floor and head to my room to change over, I would be meeting him soon, he can’t know Elena is my mate, I have it all covered,
After taking a long bath with Elena all over my thought, I got back into my room and got dressed, it was evening and I should be going to join father in the palace, I would be sitting beside him to learn his way of ruling, how he handles issues and everything…
That is what he had made me do every day after school, he badly wants me to be cold-hearted and cruel like him, just when I thought I was being that way, she came and softened my heart the more,
As I dressed up, the voice of my father resounded in my head making me feel dizzy,
If he had found out Elena, I need no soothsayer to know that she would lose her life especially when she is the daughter of Darren a man he hated so deep…
Just as I made to brush my hair, a knock sounded on the door,
“Come in” I breathed and a guard walked in,
“The Alpha call for your presence immediately” he announced with a little bow,
I arched my brow wondering why he had to call me this time, what is the rush about?
“Hey, Is there any special event happening in the palace why did he have to send you to call me?” I asked and he bowed,
“All the officials are assembled, the Beta, gamma and some warriors” he replied getting me more confused,
Was father planning on waging the war all of a sudden??
I made a deep sigh before heading out to the palace, I just pray he doesn’t want us to attack the pack so soon, I need to save Elena first, I won’t let her get a single scratch…
But then, I recalled what my father said again and flinched, I am thinking of saving her while Dad already told me to kill her??
Oh, I guess this would be the first time to disobey his order, I have always do whatever he ordered, but killing Elena is impossible!
“Slit his throat!!!” I heard Dad growled just as I got into the palace hall, it was followed by a knife moving through the neck of the shivering man who was on his knee, he fell lifelessly making the cry of his wife and son increase as they watched him die.
I wasn’t moved as it had become normal to me, Dad kills without restraining for a little mistake.
I head straight to my seat beside him and sat down with my face grim,
Everyone present stood up to greet me as they noticed my presence,
“Hey Jason, I want that noisy woman dead the cruellest way!” Dad huffed and I turned to the lady who was whimpering this time as her eyes dilated,
She was shocked to hear those words from my father, her son gasped with tears flowing profusely,
“Alpha, please don’t…”
I won’t allow her to finish whatever she was about saying before I gripped her neck squeezing it so tight that she couldn’t breathe, I raised her off the ground leaving her convulsing,
I smashed her on the chair over there crashing it into pieces, she shrilled in pain, I grabbed her up and punched her belly making blood spurt out her lips,
I glanced at dad and he was just so happy,
“Stop!” Dad ordered as I made to send the second blow,
I turned my gaze to him,
“I want them all to see how strong my son has become, you are a full-grown man now, your wolf is fully alive and strong with powers, this time around, kill her with your magic powers,” he said and my eyes fluttered,
“Dad I…”
“Do as I say!” He snapped and I dropped the woman who was breathing heavily in pain on the floor,
I took three-step backwards, I swallowed the lump in my throat wondering how dad knew I got the powers of a dragon, I’m a hybrid with the combination of a wolf and dragon,
I found when I was sixteen years old, it has been two years ago, the great power could raze down a building, I can spit fire and tear a human into two…
I hide this from everyone because I was afraid of turning into a blood-sucking monster, but now I can’t believe dad knew and wants me to use it, the powers had been growing with my age and now I can shift into a full dragon spitting fire,
I can also send fireballs to burn down anyone, I’m a Hybrid…
“Do it now!” Dad urged as he saw the fear in my eyes, everyone was watching, the warriors, Beta and gamma, all want to see what I would do,
My eyes went to the shivering woman who I was going to use the powers on, she has tears flowing all over her face, she is just going to turn into ash few minutes later after I am done…
I shut my eyes and clenched my fist, murmuring some magic words, I felt the beast rise, I felt it open its eyes, my whole body went hot, the nails gradually grew into long strong claws making me unclench my palm,
My bones crack and reformed turning to something else, I paused the shift immediately my golden wings spread out…
I felt great anger and rage fill my heart, I felt sorrow taking over me, it was like I was losing someone and that made me so furious,
My veins all sprout out, my muscles got larger and stronger, I flapped my wings and it sent strong winds,
Then slowly I opened my eyes with was having a fire in it and then my eyes fell on the woman in front of me…
“Kill her!!!” I heard a voice order in me and then without wasting a single second,
I gripped her neck this time my claws pierced deep into her neck causing blood to spill out,
She cried but all It only increased my rage, I raised her with my left hand up to the space,
With my other hand, I formed a fireball and fed her with it, It razed her down and right there and then, she fully turned into ashes spreading over the floor…
