253 Chapter Two Hundred Fifty Three
Caden walked up to the boy, still keeping the guise that there was nothing he was going to do, right before delivering a full-force uppercut that threw the boy outside through the gate. Kyle groaned in pain and rubbed his jaw. To his amazent, he was already healing. His jaw hurt a lot and he was sure it had been broken, but the healing had already kicked in. He couldn’t tell if this was a good or bad thing considering the fact that the things that could kill him with this much healing had just reduced in number.
“Follow ... I will deal with your punishnt as my Luna has ordered,” Caden said to him.
“Wait... Luna?” the boy asked, surprised. He had been focused on those around that wanted to kill him that he hadn’t taken the ti to take in his alpha’s appearance. Now that he thought back, his mind could perfectly picture the mark on her shoulder. He’d failed to acknowledge it in the heat of the mont, but his mind was now going through the different implications of her mark, “You don’t an...”
“I see you don’t know a lot of things... The rogues you were so intent on leaving with, will be no more. The war is over, Kyle. If I were you, I would embrace your new life as her highness’s beta alpha. You’re in for a world of pain, but then again, I’m sure the two of you knew that before deciding you were coming back to live among us,” Caden said to him.
“Caden, don’t overdo it, okay? King Sirius might want to do sothing to him. He better get back to Sirius in the right condition,” Cole waved his beta alpha off. Caden stared at the wolf at his feet and could only feel cheated for not having the chance to see him breathe his last. It was nagging although, with more thought on the matter, he found that he had all the ti in the world to remind the boy of the cri he committed.
There was nothing he could think of that would satisfy him concerning Ashley’s loss and he had no idea if torturing the boy would help him co to peace with it either. After all, “Even if I drop you in all the hell on earth, it stays the sa... You get to live while Ashley never had that chance. You don’t deserve what you’ve been given.”
Kyle hadn’t been forced to kill many in his lifeti, but that statent affected him more than he thought it should have. The boy sighed, “You make it sound like I want to be alive.” Watching the shocked expression grow on Caden’s face, he smirked, “Yeah, that’s right. What’s the point? If you’d ask , I’m in the perfect hell. I would rather be dead, but I’m alive. Ashley would rather be alive, but she’s dead. It’s the perfect form of unfairness this world has to offer. Do what you will with . I honestly don’t care the slightest bit.”
“In that case, follow to my room. You’ll be my personal slave until we get to Sirius. Any funny business and you will know the true definition of pain... Though if I do that, Cole might get mad at for bringing you to Sirius in the worst possible shape,” Caden shrugged, gesturing for the young alpha to follow him.
Kyle got up to his feet and dusted himself off. Moving his mouth at odd angles as though sothing was stuck in his teeth, he found that his jaw was completely healed and the pain had completely subsided. He’d started to notice his increased healing and it only worried him. “So you’re Kyle... The boy that has caused Katie so much pain. It’s sad to see you in a situation where Katie can’t hurt you. You’re probably planning to turn your back on her once you get the chance,” Lina said to Kyle while he passed her at the gate.
.....
“Hmm, there is a part of that would have wanted to do that, but as ti has passed, I’ve resigned to my new life. Beta alphas don’t have much choice when it cos to obeying their masters. We cannot do anything to hurt them. It would have been possible for to betray her if the rogue king had bitten and switched my allegiance, but he didn’t figure it out in ti. And now that Katie has been marked by Cole, that wouldn’t work even if he tried,” Kyle said to the princess, standing beside her at the gate, far too close for comfort.
“Hey, Kyle... don’t waste my ti. Make sure you’re right behind ,” Caden’s voice ca from the hall.
Kyle felt his gut wrench as the orders took root. Just giving command over to Caden was enough to have him following his every word like he was so loyal pet. The boy rushed past Lina in a hurry to catch up to the beta alpha. The boy had put thought into his situation. Lina could tell he had his hands tied and there was really nothing he could do about it. ‘So, then... Have you decided to endure what this life is about to throw at you? It won’t be easy,’ she thought to herself.
“I see he’s ready. I wonder what this endeavour will breed for that boy,” the hunter beside Lina spoke more to herself.
“I don’t really know if this endeavour will do anything for him. If he can learn to embrace life again, then maybe sothing can co of this. I know for a fact that the boy wants to die,” Tom answered, stunning those that were listening.
“What makes you think such a thing?” Jason asked him before anyone else could.
“Well, when I was bringing him here, he hinted on it... twice. The first ti, he almost tricked into killing him. Obviously, the rules that bind the beta alphas didn’t give him many options. He couldn’t attack because I matter to Katie, so he hoped I would kill him once I saw him. Unfortunately, I quickly realised that he was why Katie wanted to go out there. I know she wouldn’t do that just for the sake of killing him. The second ti he hinted at it was when the rogues’ base exploded. We’d already escaped, but he wished he’d still been inside at the ti it did,” Tom explained.
“What’s making him that suicidal?” Marie asked.
“Well, I don’t see why he wouldn’t be suicidal?” Sandra intervened, “Everything he worked for and believed he was going to have once he was done with his mission crashed and burned right in front of him. There is nothing more for him to live for. Moving over to our side after everything he did just doesn’t seem like an option to him.”
“Aren’t you always analysing the situation? What would Katie do without you?” Marie celebrated.
“Katie is smart in her own right. She doesn’t even struggle to keep up in classes. She’s always ahead of...”
“Oh, you forget Sandra. Katie gave up a lot to get that good. You lived your childhood a little more than she did. Your parents, being civilians knew how to let a child have fun. At the sa ti, you made your own research and learned everything that you know with next to no help at all. Katie might be better than you in the classroom, but she had tutors for that sort of thing,” Marie stopped the girl before she could continue putting herself down.
Sandra, in a lower tone, “It sounds like... you’re trying to say Katie is dumb.”
“What... No, now that’s an extre. I didn’t say she was dumb. She does value her instincts over logic though, so in the end, you’ll find her leaping first into an illusion of fire before proving if it’s real or not,” the woman sighed. Sirens began to ring in the far distance getting their attention.
“Get the severely injured humans moving. It’s about ti they were taken to an adequate ergency room and treated appropriately,” Tom commanded them before turning to his wife, “We’ll have to report everything that has happened here to the Council.”
“Yeah, I know... I guess it’s not over yet...” the woman said in a worried voice.
............
It was not long before the ambulances arrived, taking the most injured first. Trevor helped the junior hunters take them out and worked on waking the other students. It was agreed that the humans that had slept through the entire ordeal were to be inford in the calst manner possible. Since most of them didn’t need to be bothered by the details, none of them was to know the full extent of the injuries that were incurred that night.
The werewolves were mostly sleepy by the ti they had to get into the school bus. They got to packing their things and placing them on the bus. The teachers, who were in shock after hearing what happened from the hunters offered to help Trevor get the students ready. They handled the roll call and organization of the students as efficiently as possible while the hunters and werewolves were given all the ti to get ready.
Most of them were still injured from the entire ordeal and needed more ti to get ready.
“Katie, we have to get going,” Cole called the girl taking her sweet ti in the bathroom. When no sound ca through, the man walked up to the door and opened it without prior warning. Freezing at the doorway, he found his mate staring into the bathroom mirror. Her eyes had gone completely dark blue. There wasn’t a hint of werewolf within them.
“Katie...”
