C5 Insane

I was deaf to his words.

My mind is incapable of acknowledging anything he asserts.

Who is he to use the term "mate" when he has destroyed the lives of true fated mates? Each phrase that he utters is a complete curse!

How heinous.

Then it dawned on me what we were doing. I became conscious immediately, and it seemed as if I had been scorched on his flesh. I pushed him hard and successfully for the first time.

I fell into the water and we exchanged glances. I was the only one tense amongst the two of us, while he was completely cool.

The more I see his flaming eyes, the angrier I become over Archer's demise.

"If you could only see your reflection in a mirror... What a pitiful sight." He murmured mockingly, even shaking his head.

I felt terror for the first time again when the water rushed as he drew closer to me. My body grew tight, as if I were wrapped in ice, as a result of my refusal to break.

"Take a look at those seductive eyes. They look scared but scary because it ends up looking like it can brutally murder me— ”

"I could!"

I never allow him to complete his sentence. My canine tooth had already shown, so did my sharp nails.

"It's scary," he lifted his hand as if surrendering. His face remained expressionless.

I am even more furious as a response to the disdain he is now showing me.

"Don't mock me!"

"It appears as though you have not been informed who the gentleman in front of you is now?" He took a step forward without removing his gazes that were already visiting my soul.

“Don’t come near me!” I snarl incessantly.

I knew he wouldn't fear me since he was strong enough to break me off with one hand without my flinch. I began by gently closing my eyes and inhaling deeply. If I have yet to exact the vengeance I desire, it is preferable that no one benefits me.

If it’s not Archer, I don’t want it.

My sharp nails were put to my neck.

"Agh..." When I felt the cocoon of my index fingernail on my neck, I murmured faintly.

"What do you think you're doing, woman?" His tone of speech remained unchanged. There is nothing there to be heard.

Calling me mate yet not even trace of worry.

Why?

Why am I feeling disappointed? Why this heart is thumping like crazy? Is it fear for him? Or...

I shook my head when something came into my mind.

"You dare to ask what am I doing?" I smirked. "Don't mind this impudent lady, my Lord---!"

I didn't continue my sentence because another wave of water went by and some droplet of it got into my eyes, which is why I closed them.

I rotated my eyes swiftly to focus on the man in front of me.

However, as I opened my eyes, I came dangerously close to sticking my long nails into him. My eyes also widened as I realized that the two of us were just a handful away.

"Those are deadly," he muttered in my ear, bringing his lips up to my earlobe to lick it. "As I already made clear, it was a godsend that I caught you, so why are you still trying to evade my grasp?"

I sought to withdraw my hand but was unable to do so due to the strength of his hold, despite the fact that he was using just one hand. One of his hands is already around my waist, attempting to draw me in closer.

"Release me!" I struggle, but the water simply spits out.

"You appear to be quite at ease in my company. Is it still necessary for me to introduce myself?" He yanked my waist hard enough that my body collided with his chest.

I'm frozen because I'm afraid of being taken away by my body's heat once more.

"I never imagined I'd have to reintroduce myself after declaring myself Lycan King." I felt his soft lips brush against mine as he whispered that word.

My body had no reaction to what he did. My inner wolf is reviving.

"With each minute I spend with you, you grow more intriguing," he said as I swallowed the kiss.

Why? Why am I submitting to him?

"I will tell you this only once. I am Logan McAdam. The King of the Lycans and Alphas, I have owned you since you entered my domain. And regardless of what you do, you will not be able to escape your fate." I felt as if I were intoxicated when he knelt in front of me. "I do not kneel for others; others do, but for you..."

He licked my abdomen all the way down to my most sensitive area. He spread my legs and stood poised to devour me once more.

When I closed my eyes, a flash of the dead Archer flashed into my mind.

That is all I have left to cling to.

I quickly shifted from being a wolf and attacked Logan without hesitation.

Unfortunately, he bolted and retreated before I could strike him.

When I peered at him, I realized he was gasping for air and had a small amount of blood coming from a scar on his face. Oh. I struck him.

The door abruptly opened as blood fell from his cheek into the water.

When I returned my gaze to the person who had arrived, I hurriedly diverted my gaze.

A woman without any clothes.

What sort of prank is this?

"You have finally arrived. I assumed we could enjoy these three, but it appears that I was mistaken."

Logan's statement drew my eyes away from him. What is he aiming to convey? What do the three of us take pleasure in?

The woman stayed silent and bowed. I was taken aback.

"Do not be surprised, lady." He had risen above the surface of the water and was no longer submerged. He reached the woman and placed his hand on her shoulder. "She is my concubine, but if you so desire, I will dispose of them all for you."

Pathetic. We are not objects.

"You are completely insane."
