The Lycan King’s Rejected Soulmate

Chapter 32

Avery

After I was brought to the mansion, the bodyguards didn’t release me. They continued dragging me to somewhere else.

I thought they were going to take me to a dungeon but I was mistaken.

As we walked inside hallways, I recognize where we are heading to.

The bodyguards were taking me to Fredo’s bedroom.

My heart dropped.

What is Fredo trying to do now?

Shouldn’t Fredo still be angry that I aired his family’s dirty laundry to the public? Although I knew Fredo was obsessed with me he should have tried to maintain some kind of rule as example to his subordinates.

He didn’t even punish me for challenging his authority.

He was too calm and I didn’t like the fact that he was too stable.

It was like he was an old body of water that had no ripples disturbing its peace.

It made me disoriented.

I would prefer it if Fredo did something in his anger.

He would have been easier to handle that way.

Werewolves normally don’t suffer from the pangs headaches bring but at the thought of Fredo, I could feel a migraine in the making.

We finally reached Fredo’s room.

The bodyguards threw me into the bedroom after they opened the door. They closed the door after I was inside.

Fredo was sitting in the exact same position he was in when I entered his bedroom for the first time.

The situation seemed to be a repeat of the first day but it was different.

The first time I had come here, Fredo was willing to watch me do my thing as he watched. Now, he is ready to claim me.

My heart rate increased.

Although I can ask the moon goddess for help, I have the fear that I would not be able to call for her fast enough.

I don’t want to suffer collateral damage.

Fredo didn’t look angry anymore.

It felt like the run he had in his wolf form had soothed him tremendously.

Fredo rubbed the bed, “Do you still remember what you promised me the first time I called you into this bedroom?”

“Ldon’t remember promising you anything.” I said as I crossed my hand defensively over my chest.

Right now, Fredo felt like a wolf to me.

I was a werewolf too but I was intimidated by his aura.

It was unavoidable. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

He was a dominant and strong alpha while I was an omega with no hint of combat experience.

He smiled, “It is okay if you don’t remember, I would help you jog your memory for you.”

His smile was dark and creepy. I felt chills cascading down my back and I took a step backwards.

He stood up like he didn’t notice my small reaction to his smile. Whoosh!

Fredo moved but I could only follow Fredo’s afterimages.

Before I knew it, my clothes hung on my body in a tattered state.

If not for my clothes not having a hint of dirt or grime, I would have been mistaken for a beggar.

I did not move but my torn clothes fell to the ground with a soft plop.

I lay naked before Fredo’s burning gaze.

Disgust and anger rose within me.

Shame colored my cheeks in a red ting and I glared at Fredo.

“Can you remember what you promised me now?” He asked with a casual smirk hanging at the corners of his lips..

I took a deep breath to stifle my anger but it did not work.

“Avery, you have to submit to me. Other than your fate, the fates of your friends. lies with you too.” Fredo commented and my hatred for him intensified.

I had tried so hard to provoke Miss Freya to madness because I didn’t want her to direct her attention to Diana and her group.

Now, Fredo’s words were destroying all the efforts I invested into protecting Diana and her group.

I decided to bluff.

“What gives you the idea that those girls might be important to me? I only interacted with them so I would know the situation of your little kingdom.” My face was as cold as ice as I spoke.

The red blush my shame conjured had disappeared.

He shrugged his shoulders, “Well, anyone that had interacted with you since you arrived is in danger so you should choose your option wisely.”

Fredo had the power to take me forcefully but he was aiming for another thing.

The words I said as I was negotiating with him when I came here previously seemed to still be on his mind.

He wanted both my body and my heart.

He was smart.

He should have known that the words I said previously was all for the purpose of convincing him to let me go that day.

He must be dreaming to think he can acquire my heart.

Fredo was aiming at the impossible.

“Do what you wish to do to them, I don’t care.” I tried to continue my bluff but I knew that Fredo wasn’t buying it.

He didn’t reply to my words.

Instead, his gaze scanned my body from head to toe.

The shame that coated my cheeks because of Fredo seeing me in this kind of vulnerable state rushed back.

“You are beauti-” Fredo’s words were interrupted halfway.

I knew what he was seeing.

Werewolves aren’t like humans.

The more powerful the pups are, the faster they grow. The effects of my kids‘ growth was already showing on me.

My stomach had become hard and rounded.

One look and anybody would know it is pregnancy.

I knew I couldn’t hide it anymore.

After Fredo shredded my clothes, I could have tried to conceal my stomach but I didn’t.

I did not try to do anything because it would have been impossible to hide.

If I behaved strangely, Fredo’s interest would be piqued and he would want to get to the bottom of things.

He would know about my pregnancy sooner or later.

“You are pregnant!” His face was stone cold.

I held my stomach protectively.

“Yes I am.” I answered curtly.

“Who is the father?” His tone was growing colder by the second.

The room temperature seemed to drop gradually as he spoke.

“And how is that your concern?” I didn’t give a reply to his question. Instead, I threw my own question to him.

Fredo laughed.

I was stunned at his boisterous laugh.

His mood change was too sudden. It felt like I was faceslapped.

“Your pregnancy have to be from a powerful man for it to show this quick. If I mate with you now, my sperms have a chance of devouring the babies within. you.” Fredo speculated, “My pups would have the genes of a superior werewolf.” I watched him talk like he was a mad person..

No. Fredo wasn’t like a mad person, he was mad.

His outer appearance contrasted with his inward makeup.

I did not know he wasn’t right in the head.

For him to think of letting his worthless sperm devour my children was insane. “Are you insane?” I didn’t know when the words dropped from my lips.

When I thought I have seen the world, some people just refreshes my views time.

It was ridiculous.

“You might not understand now but you will appreciate what I am doing in the future.” Fredo consoled.

When I saw that Fredo noticed my pregnancy, I ran through the actions he might take.

I wanted to predict his moves so I would have a solution in place.

His action this time wasn’t within the range I could try to predict again.

Fredo had jumped from a normal reasoning faculty to the one that was abnormal and strange.

I thought Fredo would either ask me to abort the pregnancy or he would keep me in confinement till I give birth so he could kill my pups.

It never occurred to me that my understanding of Fredo was so shallow.

His thoughts were too crooked that I wasn’t able to understand at all.

“No, thank you.” I said with the calmest voice I could manage.

I was angry but I did not want to set Fredo off.

I was able to act as I liked because I knew he regarded me as a special person in his heart but now, I felt like I have to rethink my speculations.

He knew my pups would die if he tried to grab the chance to implant his seeds. into me but he didn’t mind.

He was willing to do such a disgusting act and my permission does not matter to him.

He only cares about his future offsprings.

I knew it was time to request help from the moon goddess.

I don’t like the way things are progressing.

I have to ask for her help now or I might not be able to do it later.

I did not want anything to happen to my kids.

They are my life and hope.
