Louisa's POV
"Yes, I am an asshole, I'm well aware of that. You don't have to keep reminding me. But ever since you came into my life, you've been ruining my life. You haven't done anything to please me except in bed! You keep asking me to love you, but do you really love me?! You've fucking made cloaks for those imbecile frogs and never has it ever comes to your mind that you can make something for me! You went into a fucking shop, flirting with my Beta, choosing fucking gifts for him, his wife, and his unborn baby, but you've never wanted to pick a gift for me! There's nothing but that fucking warlock in your mind and you two really fucking deserve each other!"
I grabbed my hair and couldn't believe what I'd heard.
"Is this all about some clothes and gifts?! I've killed people for you! I've sacrificed my life for you! You've killed my surrogate father in the most brutal way, I still end up having sex with you! I no longer expect to get your love in return anymore. All I'm asking is for you to leave me and my friends alone! What else do you want me to do?!" I said in a trembling voice.
Lucas looked like he had already been consumed by anger.
His eyes turned red and he roared like a beast, "I want you to love me unconditionally and stop making fucking friends! You're my woman and I'm the only one that you should care about in your life! Do not ever fucking put your friends in front of me! Do not make another trouble for me! Do not ever threaten to run away from me!"
Zackery held me tightly in his arms and said, "OK, guys. Let's take a break to let the heat cool down a bit. You two are madly in love with each other and I take it as a very good sign. But the way you two express love to each other... Well, that's an area of development."
Lucas leered and said, "I don't give a fuck what's on her mind, Your Excellency. I've already decided. I'll chain her up in this fucking tent, so she won't run away from me."
"Yes, chain me up! Brand me! Put me into a case and seal the lid! Because that's the only thing you can do to make a woman stay with you for the rest of her life!" I became exasperated.
"OK, great," Lucas removed his belt from his waist and tried to tie me up. "Now with your consensus, I can finally do it without Lucian nagging around me all the time."
Zackery pulled me back behind his back and said, "Lucas, nobody chains my sister up like a dog. Are we clear on that?"
Lucas stretched his belt in his hands and said, "A dog doesn't fucking bite the hand that feeds her, Your Excellency. I've been more than generous and tolerant of her. I've bought her fucking jewelry and clothes. I've paid for her fucking personal guards who were good at nothing. I don't mind her being a fucking mixed breed of fucking wolf and fairy. I don't even give a fuck for her being transferred into a fucking leech! But look at her fucking attitude towards me. It's time to teach her a lesson, so she'll learn how this whole fucking mating thing works."
"I know nothing about women, but I'll have to assure you that chaining your mate up in a tent isn't how this mating thing works. It's not how anything works. Put your belt back on your pants because I can literally see your crotch. It's a really very distracting sight, Lucas," Zackery said.
Lucas stared at Zackery and said, "Your Excellency, that's my fucking crotch and I'm not ashamed of it."
"You are really a man of character, aren't you?" Zackery raised one eyebrow and said.
"He doesn't have a heart!" I shouted.
"No, I don't! What are you going to do about it, she-wolf?" Lucas stared at me and said.
"My name is Louisa Reeds! Call me by my name!"
The arrogance on Lucas' face made me want to chew his face off.
Zackery held me tightly in his arms, so I couldn't jump at Lucas.
"OK, little girl. You've made your point. He's an asshole. He doesn't have a heart. He doesn't deserve you," Zackery tried to calm me down.
I looked up and saw that Zackery looked pretty stressed out.
I stopped protesting.
"Phew," Zackery sighed, "this isn't what I had in mind when I woke up this morning. But I guess I have to learn to go with the flow. Lucas, you've made my sister very upset and as far as I could tell, it's all your fault. Since you don't want to apologize for what you've done and threaten to hurt her, I have to take her away from you."
"Your Excellency, she's my fucking woman!" Lucas roared.
"She's my half-sister. And you're toxic. Besides, I can't imagine what would Lycidas do when he found out you wanted to chain her sister up like a dog," Zackery said.
"I will explain it to His Majesty and I'm sure he'll understand!" Lucas shouted, trying to approach me.
"Ahhh!" Will jumped out of my hair and landed on Lucas' face. Before I realized it, he had already started to bite Lucas' nose.
"Ahhh! A bat! A fucking bat is on my face!" Lucas covered his face with his hands.
"Will! Stop it! Don't hurt him!" I screamed.
Will stopped biting. He turned back and looked at me. Then, he flapped his wings and flew back. After he landed on my shoulder, he crawled into my hair.
"Fucking bat! I'm going to throw you into the fireplace!" Lucas shouted and charged at me.
Lots of blood came out of his nose and it looked really ugly.
Zackery hid me behind his back to block Lucas from me and said, "Lucas, stop it right now. It's just some minor scratch."
"Minor scratch?! Half of my nose was missing!" Lucas shouted in pain.
"And it will grow back very soon," Zackery said. "There won't be any scars left."
"But it didn't mean that fucking bat didn't bite me in the first place!" Lucas argued.
"Ah, that's very impressive. You finally realized the meaning of hurting someone." Zackery said.
