Chapter 47: Hot seat
ALPHA TAHIRA.
SEVEN.
I was in a hot seat!!
Ian and Ionna stared daggers at me and Tahira was like the main Judge.
If Ian looks could kill, I would be crawling to my grave right now.
"You killed Ionna's baby!" Tahira blurted out with anger.
Wow!
"A scorpion?"
"It was her baby!! You shouldn't have done that Seven, that was the only thing she cherished.."
"I
"I...." I closed my mouth, lost for words.
"I know you hate my family but why kill an innocent soul? I screamed at you to stop but you ended up killing her and breaking my favorite flower vase!! Are you Lycans these worse?" Ionna screamed at me.
"I thought it wanted to hurt you."
"Her! Her not it." Ian growled.
"What do you want again? The throne? Just kill us all and take it rather than causing more havoc in our lives. You sent my brother away, you rendered Tahira with a memory loss, you've killed her baby and will soon do worse things. What are you waiting for?
Kill us, monster!!" He yelled and my jaw twitched.
I shouldn't let that affect me, to hell with what he thinks, well, that's a lie.
That shit hurts straight to my bones.
"I understand that you're having a grudge on them but...don't hurt them please.
You can settle with them amicably and just go...maybe?
The throne? I don't know anything about that but don't kill anyone again."
"Tahira? You think I would kill them? Jeez!!"
I exclaimed.
"I don't know your motives anymore Seven, anyone's motives. It might be fake or real and I don't wanna risk that."
"I'll never hurt you Tahira!!"
"Shut the fuck up! You did. Stop acting all saintly because she lost her memories. You practically locked her up for your selfish reasons, just quit the act Lycan!!" Ian blasted at me and I closed my eyes.
"You can get angry for all you care Ian, it's normal to get pissed. It won't change anything will it? Your dad is fucking dead and your mum happens to be lucky. That scorpion I killed was out of sheer ignorance and I will replace it with a triple If she wants.
My issue with Tahira is none of your business."
"Seven? You're making things hard for them already."
Tahira gasped.
"Nothing will get better with them, I did what I needed to do and I'm not feeling remorse about it, I'm a monster after all."
"You're not!!" She slammed. "I don't know...but I don't see you as one yet."
"Stop defending him Tahira, in fact don't say anything until you go back to your normal self" Ian slammed at her and my temper rose.
"Don't you dare yell at her!"
"She doesn't have a problem with that!"
"Well I fucking do a whole lot!"
"Then deal with that! Go to your own god forsaken pack and say that to your own Queen. She's the Queen of Seven packs And I have every right to yell at her as the prince of this pack!!". My nose flared red in anger.
I could tolerate the stupid display of ingratitude but I wouldn't tolerate this insult from him. Talking to Tahira in a bizarre manner and rubbing her memories all over her face.
"Just try and yell at her again.... just fucking try it."
"That's enough already!" Tahira yelled.
"I hate it when you all fight at all times, can't you all just be in peace for once."
"NO!!" We both chorused and she rolled her eyes.
"Fine! Argue till death!" She flipped her hair and faced Ionna. "We'll get you a new one okay?"
"If it's coming from him, then forget it. I don't want something to destroy me " She said and stormed out, leaving me in dismay.
Who would have thought my act of kindness will label me as a worse kind of monster.
I should have just minded my business and pondered hard on what I heard between the moon goddess and the Queen.
Ian clicked his tongue at me and kicked the dust before joining his sister leaving me with Tahira and I.
I was actually expecting her to leave too but she just stood.
"I've been having weird memories!" My heart gave a crack, slamming against my ribcage.
"What do you remember?" I asked desperately hoping it's not something worse.
"I really don't understand but it's about the Queen. This is not the first time she's tried to kill me, we've had countless argument about this but...." She paused, biting her lips as in disbelief. "But what Tahira?"

"I never took it easy on her, it was as if I fought back at every one of her actions, it's weird."
Shit!
She's recalling her memories and it hurts me that it's that fast.
I know it's bizarre but I wished she never recalls them, I wanted her to keep being ignorant, calm and sweet cause once she recovers everything, she's definitely going to hate me
I nodded and smiled. It hurts but staring at her and Imagining her hatred towards me is something my heart can't tolerate.
"It's fine Tahira, you're slowly recovering."
I said and took a few steps from leaving but she held my hand.
"I'm sorry about the other day, I shouldn't have done that against your will. I understand I might not be your type and all that I just can't help the fact that you're really nice and fucking cute to be ignored." She bit her lips and continued while my fingers balled into a fist. Every fiber of her words affected me like an electric shock.
"I really like you Seven and...it's hard when you keep avoiding me like some outcast."
Fuck!! Tahira...does she even know what she's doing to me right now?
I took her soft milky hands and dragged her from the middle of the open entrance and walked so fast to god's nowhere. She became alert and scared but I was totally gone this time around.ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
"S.ss. Seven? Where are we going?"
She asked shakily until we reached the door.
I kicked it open with force and slammed her to the wall the moment the door closed.
I didn't need any soothsayer to tell me how fire burned through my body as I kissed her hard like a hungry starved beast.
