Chapter 78
Damon
“My King.”
I heard a feminine voice call. Despite being in the same room with the person, I was far away.
My mind was in the woods.
For weeks, I haven’t been myself.
As much as I didn’t want to admit it since Aurora left, I’ve lost my spark.
I’ve lost the spark of happiness in me.
After the death of Ivy, Aurora was the only woman to revive that spark…but now, it was gone.
Nothing made sense anymore.
My demons grew in thousands, haunting me day and night. My nightmares were slowly becoming a reality that I couldn’t escape.
My illness got worse. Dax, Devin, and Ivy were the only people I saw…but this time, I saw Aurora.
It was strange because the rest of them were dead, but Aurora wasn’t.
I was left in a state of confusion. I thought I only saw them because I loved them dearly, but what was it about Aurora?
Why was she appearing to me?
Why do I keep speaking to her imaginary figure?NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.
My recent behaviour caused unrest in Jasper. He was afraid that I would become insane.
“You have to take your drugs and go for therapy, Damon. An insane King can’t rule over the packs!” His words echoed in my head, causing my chest to clench.
His words were like heavy blows, filling me with sharp pain.
Jasper and I fought a few days ago about my refusal to take my medications.
To him, I needed them like the air I breathe.
But deep down, I knew I needed Aurora.
She was my medication and therapy.
Her presence was enough to make me sane.
But I couldn’t tell him. I couldn’t let him know that I had feelings for Aurora.
It was unheard of that a King had feelings for his breeder. She was my slave, my property.
Her days were numbered and according to the law, she would be killed the day my heir was born.
If only the baby in her womb was mine.
Driven by hurt, I banished her from coming close to the castle.
The day she stepped her feet near the premises was the day she would breathe her last.
I couldn’t handle that she hurt me badly.
How could she cheat on me and deceive me about fathering her child, despite knowing the child wasn’t mine?
How could she make me look like a fool after explaining how badly I needed an heir to keep the packs together?
What was a King without an heir?
It was only a little time before the people started planning their next coup to overthrow me since I couldn’t produce an heir.
Fuck!
Why Aurora?!
My hands trembled as they tapped the edge of the table repeatedly and my jaws tightened.
Her betrayal was like the stab of a knife. It caused me a great deal of pain.
Images of Ray kissing her on the bed were enough to make me go mad.
How dare he lay his filthy hands on my property?!
Blinded by anger, I made sure I ripped his fingers one after the other before feeding him with tiny bits of his dick and balls.
I had great satisfaction slicing them into tiny pieces.
In his next life, he would steer clear of my property.
I wasn’t called the Demon Alpha King for nothing.
Unable to harm Aurora, I sent her away in the woods.
It’s been weeks. I was certain that she would have been killed by rogue hunters or wild beasts lurking around.
“Have you taken your…” I didn’t let Jasper complete his statement before I blocked the mind-link.
His constant reminders irritated me.
I didn’t care what happened to me. I didn’t care if I lost my mind.
I wasn’t going to take my drugs.
I was done!
He could be the next Alpha King after me since he was my Beta. Fortunately, his mate was pregnant.
I shut my eyes, gulping down the pain that shot up in my throat.
Aurora.
Her name was enough to send a shiver down my spine. I loved the sound of her name against my lips.
Maybe I shouldn’t have sent her away. I should have heard her explanation.
But I was caught up in rage that I didn’t allow her to talk before pronouncing my harsh judgement.
Now, she was dead.
No one survives a night in the woods.
I couldn’t forgive myself. Yet, I couldn’t forgive her for cheating on me.
Maybe I should go into the woods in search of her. I didn’t mind giving her a befitting burial when I found her body.
But what do I tell Jasper? The last thing I wanted was his suspicion.
Fuck!
I was a mess!
I ran my hand over my messy hair, ruining its appearance more.
I haven’t even had time for myself for weeks.
My eyes travelled to the mirror that rested on the wall.
My appearance was shitty.
Bags grew beneath my eyes, making them appear a bit droopy.
My face was pale and my cheekbone was pronounced. Dark circles formed a ring around my eyes.
I lost a significant amount of weight.
I hadn’t been eating well these days. I spent most of my time lost in thoughts.
Jasper now handled most of the packs’ affairs.
I was disoriented and disorganized.
All of me yearned for Aurora. But I won’t be able to see her again.
I knew she was gone for good, but I couldn’t accept it.
I wanted her.
“My King.” The familiar voice repeated, tapping me seductively.
A heavy frown sat on my face at once as I turned to look at Rosa who knelt before me.
“What?” I asked harshly, irritated by her presence.
“You asked me for my reward, my King. You said you would grant any reward I request since I revealed to you that Aurora cheated on you,” she said calmly, flashing a smile.
Pain ran down my spine at her words. I hated to be remembered how I was made a fool.
How could she betray me and deceive me?!
“I’m all ears.”
“My King, I want to plead that I have my former position back. I miss pleasing you. I miss being your mistress. I know I messed up, but I will do anything,” she pleaded, faking a cry.
“Fine,” I replied boredly.
“Thank you so much, my King.”
She almost jumped on me out of excitement, but she was quick to read my expression and compose herself.
A smirk spread on her face as she caressed my dick through the fabric.
“What are you doing?” I asked, arching my brows.
“Pleasing you, My King,” she replied, unzipping my trouser and burying my fat cock deep inside her throat.
