“I know that!” He snapped, his scratched voice still conveying his irritation. “Do you think I want to do this? Do you think it’s fun holding a knife to my sister’s throat? You all have left me no choice!” He almost screamed, his eyes darting around the room wildly. Celeste quivered, frozen to the spot with her eyes wide open in obvious disbelief.
“You are not going to make it out alive,” Jabari said, his words calm yet tight.
“Oh, I am if you want your mate in one piece,” Lucien proclaimed, pressing the knife closer to Celeste’s throat. I almost took a step forward when I saw how close the tip of the blade was to her throat.
“What do you want?” I asked when I saw the sweat gathering on my friend’s forehead. “Let her go and you’ll get whatever you want.”
“I may not be the smartest person, Aysel, but I am not stupid!” I took a startled step back at the ferocity of his scream. “You think you can deceive me? You ruined my life, you b!tch. You think I will still believe a word you say!?” He snorted, his voice loud.
“I didn’t ruin your life. You did that yourself,”‘
I answered, forcing him to talk long enough for us to get Celeste away from him.
“You were my mate but you chose to mate with that bastard who had the guts to imprison me after he stole from me!” The knife touched Celeste’s throat. Tears spilt from her eyes.
“You rejected me,” I reminded him.
“It didn’t matter! You were supposed to be mine forever.” I felt a spark on the tips of my fingers. I tightened my fist.
My magic was still raw, still out of control. I could not direct it yet and I didn’t know the full extent of the damage it could cause.
Celeste was too close to Lucien to try anything.
I didn’t want to risk hurting her. I’d never forgive myself.
“What do you want, Lucien?” I asked, getting back to the subject at hand.
“I can’t continue to stay in this pack now, can I?” He asked. “Im leaving but I have nothing.
How am I supposed to survive without any money? Celeste has refused to give me money but since you two are here, you can help her out.”
“I don’t-I don’t have any money My friend choked out.
“I don’t have any cash with me but I have my card and and Valens’. Please, just let her go,”
I pleaded with him.
“Do you think I’m stupid? I should take your card so you’ll be able to track me?”
“We don’t need -I elbowed Jabari to stop him from aggravating Lucien.
“I- what can we do then? I can do you want me to go make a withdrawal?” I looked around.
Yes, you can go and return with a troop but I’m not sure you’ll meet her alive.” He nodded his head at Celeste. “You have to come up with something better than that, Aysel. I’ve lost everything because of you. You owe me at this point.”
“You really shouldn’t have come here,” Jabari hissed but he thankfully didn’t take a step forward.
I have I touched the hoops around my ears.
Valens had give them to me for my birthday.
Solid diamond earrings. I took them off my ears and held them out to Lucien. These are diamonds. You can have them. Just let her go.”
“Drop them.” He pointed at a spot a few steps away.
I walked cautiously to the spot and dropped the earrings. He motioned me away with hand gestures and I walked backward.
“Here is what will happen,” he started, swallowing thickly. “ll take her car and you will let us go.”
“We can’t let you take her, Lucien,” I said in a steady voice despite the increasing shiver dancing through my spine and making my hands shake.
The hell I càn’t. She’s my sister! Our parents are out there somewhere, displaced because of you and your stupid mate,” he hissed. “You know, I’ve always known that underneath the façade you put on, you’re just a whore like all the other girls.” I swallowed, my throat clogging. My vision was starting to get blurry, tainted with red. “You pretended you wanted me all those years but a more successful man comes around and it doesn’t take you a second to spread your legs for him like the slut you are.”
His words were scathing, spittle flying out of his mouth as he uttered them with vehemence.
“I can’t believe I loved you!” He laughed like a maniac. “I loved you but you cheated on me and had me thrown into the dungeons. You are a b!tch, Aysel, but I still love you. You are going to regret choosing a finished prince over me.
He dragged Celeste suddenly and she let out a small squeak, still petrified.
He picked up the earrings and walked backward, still holding Celeste as his shield.
“I ‘ll drop her at the borders. You better not follow me. Tell your people to let me pass, else she’s dead.” I raised my hand in a show of surrender.
I watched as Lucien dragged Celeste with him out the back door of the house. I closed my eyes for a second, the sight of my friend frozen in her brother’s arms as he held a knife to her throat made my stomach church. I felt a burning fire sign my palms as I clenched my fists even tighter.
