The Lycan king-Chapter 33

*Leonora*

Who was he to tell me that I left! He punished me! He exiled me! And yet he’s saying it’s my fault he slept, was sleeping, with someone else. Why didn’t he give me the same grace when he saw me with Noah? Instead he wanted me to join him and that girl.

What did he take me for? I wasn’t just a random girl that he could take advantage of. I was a human being and I deserved love like everyone else. I deserved someone to take care of me and treat me right.

Maybe Bethany was right. Maybe I just needed to accept his rejection and get this over with. This felt like torture, having to relive the past over and over again. I couldn’t do it. I couldn’t bear to remember how Noah died. It was all my fault. All mine.

"Are you still going to ignore me?" Jax asked as he got up and stretched revealing a bit of his defined abs. He walked over to his bed and sat down. I turned to the wall with my back facing him. I was tired of confronting him and talking about the past with him. He wouldn’t understand what I was going through. He wouldn’t understand what he put me through. All he knew was torture and pain.

"Leonora." He called but I still wasn’t speaking to him. Couldn’t he understand that I was giving him the cold shoulder? "Okay! What is going on?" I heard him say and I scoffed. There was nothing to talk about. He had already said all he had to say. He thinks I left. Or rather, he said I left. "You have to talk to me."

"I don’t have to talk to you. I can stare at this wall for hours." I answered as I picked up the book I was previously reading. I don’t think I would be able to finish this book as long as he was in this room with me.

"Leon- You know what I’m going to call you Leo from now on." He started. "But you can’t shut me out whenever you’re mad. It’s beginning to get annoying."

"It’s not annoying. Its the best way to cope with you narcissism. You think everything is about you meanwhile you’re the one causing all the pain and torment." I shot at him and I heard him get up. I felt his hand on me and he pulled me up causing me to drop my book. I looked up at him and I saw a frown etched on his face.

"Say it to my fucking face." He seethed and I rolled my eyes. I knew he wasn’t going to punish me. He couldn’t. Not when he was trying so hard to be friendly with me. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

"You’re a narcissist. You only care about yourself. That’s why you don’t want to pick me! Because you can never share so much of your self." I forced out and he chuckled and took a step back, as if my words stung him and I certainly wish they did.

"I definitely share myself. I already do that too well." He teased and I rolled my eyes. He was just a whore.

"Yeah you share yourself alright! The only thing you can share is your body and aside from that, you have nothing else to offer!" I made a snide comment and he took a step closer. I squared my shoulder and stared at him. I wasn’t going to make him feel like he could put me down. I wasn’t a rag doll that he could use however and whenever he wanted. "That’s why you can never be a good mate! That’s why the only person you deemed fit enough to be by your side is Claire because you know you can never offer her anything but your body and your fucking crown. Tell me I’m not right."

"Fuck you! Fuck you, Leonora." He spat at me and walked away, opening and slamming the door. I almost thought it was going to break but it stayed rooted in its spot.

A bubbly feeling grew in my stomach. I was right. I was sure of why Jax didn’t want me. There was nothing for him to offer! He was just a brick wall and there was nothing on the other side of it.

And my mission was to break that wall and I’ll do anything to break it. And once that wall is broken down, I will take advantage of it. I’ll make sure I break him so that he would always remember me as the girl he lost, the girl he destroyed, the girl he broke.

The door opened and Jax walked into the room, heading straight for me. He didn’t close the door behind him and I moved to get the door but he blocked me and grabbed my throat. I gasped trying to take in a deep breath.

"You don’t get to talk to me like that! I am your king. Get down and apologize." He said as I struggled to take in a deep breath. I needed to breathe he was squeezing my throat. He pushed me down to the ground, letting go of my neck. I stood up and looked at him squarely.

"Jax, I’m not going to apologize until you give me a good reason why you think I’m not worthy of being your mate!" I shouted at him. Jace walked over to the door and slammed it as if remembering that he forgot to lock the door.

"You, Leonora," he said as he started walking back to me. "You can never be my Queen. You’re not worthy of it. You were born to be my slave, my maid. Your only job in the world is to serve me. The only thing you can ever offer me is your body. That’s all you’re good for but then again, there are a plethora of girls that can do it for me. Maybe in another universe, you may be my Queen but definitely not this one."
