Ragnar
Listening to Sophia and Ivar talk in the next room is enlightening. Sophia is stepping into a role that was forced on her before, and it’s clear that although she’s an absolute natural at all of this, she doesn’t want to be in charge. My mind stan working on fixing the problem. She is my mate now, and I want to show her that she’s as much my priority as all of this
While I put something together, I have to find a way to make this a little less difficult for Ivar. His mate is in iscolation as the last thing I want is for her to hate him. Her guards stand in front of the door to the room that Sophia granted her.
They greet me when I stop in front of the door. I tap on it to let her know I’m coming in. There is no sound, and when I inside, she’s sitting on the floor beside the barred floor–to–ceiling window.
The crescent moon is visible just ahead. The sky is clear, cascading a surreal darkness that helped us tonight. There are a hours until daybreak, and it feels a little like our day is just beginning. Kaylee doesn’t look back at me or even acknowled my presence.
She looks like a young Lycan. One that hasn’t transitioned yet. She’s about five feet ten to eleven inches tall. Her build is strong, and she’s definitely got a powerful wolf spirit residing inside of her. Sophie wasn’t over exaggerating when she san Kaylee is a strong alpha. As of now, she is going to be a problem. Not just to Ivar, but Sophia as well.
“You hit my mate enough to crack her eye socket. If she weren’t your friend, I would have executed you on the spot,” I bre the silence.
“She’s not my friend. I’m not friends with a traitor,” she scoffs.
“Hmm, it must be annoying being what you are,” I huff.
“Excuse me?” she turns her head enough to meet my gaze. Her eyes are a vibrant honey.
“You called her a traitor. You who has only ever looked down on her for being an omega. So really, who betrayed whom?
“She should have always known her place,” she growls.
“You are nothing more than a slave now. Talking to me like that will require the proper punishment. It is you who should know her place moving forward. It’s not Sophia’s fault that the Romanos fumbled as hard as they did.
“Sophia was never one of you. Even if she had been born to be a dog, she was never a commoner like the rest of you. She’s always been of royal blood,” I shrug. She straightens up and turns to look out the window.
“I didn’t know that.”
“You didn’t have to know that to be a decent person,” that strikes a nerve. I see the crimson glow of her eyes reflected in the glass. “You’re my brother’s mate.”
“So?” she shoots back.
“So, it will be up to you to decide if you want to be what you were born to be or continue being a slave. Sophia has a kind heart, and she wants people to think that they will have free will, but the truth is far from that
“I plan to cut you all off from the packlands. I can’t have information leaked to the outside. All contact with the outside world will be monitored, and things are going to change around here. The ranking system doesn’t work, and to me, all of you are worthless dogs.
“She is right about one thing. The Alpha King gave you all to me. He probably sees the same thing I do. Expendable bitches

the page up and mones to the other end of the room. She shakes her head as she looks back at me in horror without meeting my gate Compulsion by making eye contact is a vampire myth. Since some vampires transcend souls, they can’t wer for spare to reach out, so they need to keep eye contact. Lycans don’t have to resort to such trivial methods.
The moment de heard me weak, I already had her.
Home Box’t do that the pleada
“Why text of my mate. You turned your back on her when she needed you to speak up for her because she was of a lower rank. You rejected my brother and allowed another man to take what belonged to him. You’re lucky you’re not with child, or I would have been forced to do something unspeakable on his behalf.
“Why would I take mercy on your pleat if you have done nothing but disrespect my home and my trust? You’re nothing to mw, and you will always be nothing to me, even if you accept my brother as your mate and make him the happiest man on the face of the earth. The harm you have caused has already done what you intended it to do. I want to harm as much as you have. Tell me why I shouldn’t?
Kaylee stands there processing everything, I just said and has no answer for me, as expected. I stand up and walk over to her. When she tries to move, I grab her hand and pin her to the wall, chest first.
Do you have nothing to say for yourself, Kaylee? No apology? No sense of remorse? You do see it, right? How wrong you were abonn Sophia? You’re angry because she far surpassed you in every way. You’re upset because she now has everything you could ever dream of, and you’re livid because you know she never wanted any of it.
“You will only speak when spoken to. You will respect the laws of the Lycan house. And when Ivar offers to take you under his hold, you will accept to be his hand. I don’t need to look into your eyes to compel you, Kaylee. I’m not a vampire. I am now, and forever more, your King, and you will do as I ask. If you don’t, Sophia will carry out your punishment.
“I really enjoyed the way she killed former Luna Romano. She didn’t even have to raise a hand. Just a little splash of water, and the useless Luna Romano drowned in her own weakness. Ivar has a plethora of lycan females who would kill to stand beside him. He’ll get over a worthless dog like you”
She cries out when I release her and crawls away from me. I sit on the edge of her bed to see that the command is taking place. Her heavy breathing slows, and she blinks a few times as the wolf adjusts to the orders. When she’s done fighting it, she looks up at me with tears streaming down her face.
“What did you do?”
“I’ve shown you your place, Kaylee,” I stand up and head for the door. 1 look back at her before turning the knob. “It is in your best interest to remember it until I deem you worthy of being more.”
