The sound of keys and metal screeching made my eyes snap open; It took me a second to realise I was on the floor in the cell. I turned, my heart thumping when my eyes met Theon’s. “The Alpha wishes to see you.” He said emotionlessly, looking away from me, I nodded as I got to my feet, pulling my dress up from my breasts. I probably looked a mess, but there was little I could do about it. He didn’t even look my way again, something about the coldness oozing from Theon unnerved me. He led the way from the cell and up the stairs at a swift pace, as I followed.

I wanted to know how Raiden was, I don’t think asking Theon would be the smart thing to do. I’d ask the king… I wondered what his verdict was going to be.

Why did the king want to see me anyway? I felt a mess and those who passed us in the halls were looking at me, I wonder what state my face was in.

“I need to pee.” I said suddenly. “Hold it.”

“What?” I stopped in my tracks, 1 heard him exhale before he turned and glared at me.

“You’re a fucking woman, hold it.” “I held it all night.” I snapped back, was I actually having this conversation with him? He clenched his jaw before he carried on walking, and I followed. He stopped when we rounded the corner, and I was relieved to see the door to the restroom on the opposite wall.

“You got two minutes.” He glared as he looked me over.

Yeah right, it was going to take me two minutes just to undress to even use the toilet.

Not replying, I quickly rushed to the door, relieved that it was not occupied and shutting the door behind me. I locked the door and began stripping.

Once I had used the toilet, I washed my hands and stared at my reflection. My make-up wasn’t as bad as I had thought it would be. Grabbing the soap, I cleaned the make-up off my face and ran my fingers through my hair before getting my dress back on. I left the bathroom, spotting Theon leaning against the opposite wall, arms crossed. He raised an eyebrow seeing me, but said nothing

By the time we reached the king’s office I had thought of a hundred scenarios of why he had summoned me, each one worse than the last. Theon opened the door and stepped aside, allowing me to enter. I paused, looking up at him. Even if he was angry at me, I still felt safer with him here than not… Like last night, the king said he wouldn’t hurt me and only then did Theon leave. I couldn’t forget the look of hatred in his eyes before he left though. I pushed my thoughts away, taking a deep breath as I turned my attention to the king, who was standing facing the window.

“Take a seat.” He commanded.

I obeyed as Theon shut the door. I could feel his eyes on me, but I didn’t turn, walting for the king to speak “This may be a lot to take in, however…” The king frowned as he turned and took his seat behind his desk. “10 is obvious that you are part siren, and we all know that. The worst kind of beings on this planet.”

My stomach lurched as my heart began racing, fear wrapped around me like a blanket, suffocating me. Was me being part siren going to be my doom?

“Calm down and listen well.” The king commanded.

I nodded, trying to control my emotions as I tried to give him my full attention…
