Semua Bab Queen Samien: Battle For the Throne : Bab 31 - Bab 40

RYKER'S POVI gasped, dumbstruck.At first, I thought my eyes were starting to fail me. “What's the problem, Ryker? Why do you stand there?” My father's baritone voice rang aloud.I smiled, gently shaking my “Nothing sir,” the lie slipped quickly through my lips as I smiled. This made no sense to me. Absolutely not. Who could have ever thought Samien was the one my father had been making arrangements for me to marry.A part of me felt glad. Samien was a beautiful woman no doubt, one any man can wish for.But it just didn't feel right. For someone who had faked her identity just to get into the academy, it didn't look like she was willing to get married.“So I heard you're currently training at the Wolves academy, is that correct?” Her father asked, breaking the silence.I nodded. “Yes sir. I'll be done in a few weeks.”“That's great…” he paused, his gaze fixed on me. “Does it mean you know my daughter?”His voice lowered a bit, his countenance changing as well.“Yes sir. We were fr

MARK'S POV For the millionth time that evening, I paced around my room, unable to keep calm.The academy had gone on a short break and I couldn't have been more glad.Now that I was home, it felt like the worst thing to happen to me. I was burning with curiosity.How was Samien? What was happening to her now that she's been expelled from the academy.Gosh! This was hard. Harder than anyone would have ever thought.I sank heavily into the couch behind me, sighing hard. If only I could hear her voice to know how she's faring.The door creaked just then. My brother walked in, his face burning with mockery.An even louder hiss trailed through my lips.“What's wrong?”“None of your business,” I snapped in annoyance.He chuckled as he drew closer to me, a sinister laugh on his face. I glared hard at him, anger coursing quickly through me.“What do you want?” “Take a chill pill Mark. Can't I come to see my own brother?”I knew he didn't come to see me. He came for something else. “Spill i

MARK'S POV Cold shivers ran through me. This has to be a dream.Samien surely couldn't have rejected me. I must be hallucinating.“I don't want to be with you,” She muttered, her voice resounding in the air.“Why?” The words slipped through my lips. “We've been mated by the moon goddess, why then don't you want us to be together?”“I'm to be engaged to Ryker and he's the one I want to be with. He's the one my heart has chosen.”“You and I know that's a lie. You're only doing this to save your father's reputation and not because you love him. You couldn't even look into my eyes when I asked you to.”“That's none of your business!!” She snapped. “Like I said, Ryker is who my heart belongs to.”I exhaled, my heart shattering. This was hard. I couldn't accept this, no matter how much I wanted to.“That's fine… you may go on with your engagement.” I stormed off, my eyes burning with tears.I sat in my car, my face buried in my hands. How could I accept this? Samien should have been mine.

SAMIEN'S POV I raised my head to see who it was.Mark.“I just asked you to let go of her!” He snapped, yanked one of them off the floor and threw him across.The others charged at him, their eyes flashing with anger. Blows upon blows landed on their faces, sending them to the floor in seconds.“Are you alright?” He rushed to my side, his hands wrapping around my shoulders. Loud winces tore through the rogues lips as they quickly made their escape.“What are you doing here?” “Is that what I get after saving you from those men?” His eyes latched on me, flickering softly. Guilt washed through me.“Thank you,” I muttered with pouted lips. “So what are you doing here?”“I couldn't accept losing you, so I followed you with the hope of convincing you.”I gasped. This was the height of desperation. Was this some sort of joke?“Is it that you've got comprehension issues or you're just been so annoying? I already made myself clear to you, haven't I?”“Please just give me one chance! That's

SAMIEN'S POV “Samienm!!” I could hear Lyra's shrill voice from the corridor. The door flung open and there she stood, worried.Beads of sweat cascaded down her face. In a jiffy, she flung herself at me, hugging fiercely.I was uncomfortable. She tugged too hard and tight, but I couldn't bring myself to complain.“Thank goodness you're fine! I was terrified upon hearing the news and immediately rushed down.”I nodded, managing a smile.“Hope they didn't hurt you? No bruise, or rough handling?” She scanned my body, her eyes keen.“I'm fine Lyra. Thankfully, Mark got here in time and fought them off.”“Mark?” Her eyes widened in shock. “You brought him home?”“Of course not!” My face hardened, her action replaying in my head. “Don't you dare think I've forgiven you for what you did.”Lyra giggled. I was irked. Did she think it's funny?“I'm sorry. But did you bring Mark home?”“No, I didn't. He somehow followed me home, claiming he cannot accept my decision.”“Gosh! He must truly love
