Iris's POv
"Come with me." He turned, and I closed my eyes in fear of what is he going to do to me again.
"Brother! Did you fight?" Campbell's voice was what alerted me, I didn't see the bruises on his hands, he was badly hurt, and that made me grab his hand.
"Who hurt you?" He pulled his hand from me, and as he walked away, I stood there, looking at Campbell his gaze was now on the man from yesterday and he was with a girl.
"Damn you Russel." He cursed. "Do you have to bring her here?" Campbell was furious, and he walked towards him, I guess the girl was the issue, what relationship did he have with the girl besides his brother? I walked to Rupert that is arranging his stuff for the training.
"Did you and your brother fight?' He turned and looked at me, pushing the bow and arrow to me.
"Today we are starting with shooting arrows, take your position, over there.'
"But..."
"Don't question me, you should join them." I sighed as I took my position beside a boy, everyone grabbed the bow and arrows.
"Fire!!!"
Everyone shoots, and their arrows go right Into the sculpture in front of each of us but might go into the ground, Rupert shakes his head.
The shooting continued, I tried all the arrows but none went to the sculpture, I felt worthless.
Everyone rest, we should take a break for twenty minutes. He said, turning but his eyes met, the young man and the girl kissing.
Russel this is a training ground, not a brothel.
"Do I smell jealousy?" Russel's voice was so loud that the other trainers turned to look at them.
"Jealous? Why will I be jealous?'
"It's because you don't have anyone to love you or flirt with you and..."
Russel, you biting more than you can chew, if you don't want my rage, you should avoid me and take her out of here, this place is for training not for flirting.
"What? Does her present distract you in any form? Did she remind you that, I am better than you and that you are nothing but a monster, a beast that..."
Rupert sends a punch across the young man's face I just find out that his name is Russel, and the two get into a fistfight.
"You two stop it." Campbell yelled at Mason who was just coming in, he helped Campbell to pull them from each other.
"Rupert, you will not get away with this, I will make sure that you get punished as soon as I become the alpha.' Russel said as he walked away pulling the girl with him.
"Brother, I thought we had gone past this stage of you fighting over Celina."
"I am not fighting over anyone and you should tell that brother of yours to stay away from me or I will make him lifeless." He turned around.
"Blood shit!!!" Mason cursed as he walked out on us. I stood there, rooted like I couldn't move, Mason took over the training, and after the training I went home, I was hoping he would come back but he didn't, so I decided to go to bed, I was in deep sleep when my wolf pushed itself into my mind.
"He is here."
"What?"
"Yes, he is here." I jumped off my bed, I don't know for some reason, I felt he needed someone to talk to, I bet that young lady must have had a huge effect on him, for him to fight with his brother twice in one day, oh, maybe his father will punish him again, I grabbed the doorknob, as I pushed the door, he is almost at the staircase.
"Prince Rupert!!!" I called, he turned his gaze to me, his expression was unfathomable, his teeth gritted, I guess he was trying to suppress something that I didn't understand, was it his expression that was scary that was making me shivering or the fact that he is turning into something more dangerous, like a feral beast, he is trying to suppress it but it's not working.
"Prince Rupert, are you okay?"
"I am fine." He growls.
He grabbed the stairway gate, trying to control himself, fear enveloped me as I looked lost with what was happening.
"Iris run.'' My wolf said but I was stubborn and scared that something bad was happening to him. My blood gets cold as a result of fear, I have no idea what is happening to him.
"Iris!" He called as he turned his neck from one angle to the other.
"Um!" My eyes didn't leave him.
"Go to your room."
It was an order, more commanding and fearsome but I refuse to leave him in this state, what if something bad happened to him what if his wolf is hurting him? I take a step to him. He moves backward, creating more space between us.
"I said go to your room."
"But I can't leave you here, like this. Just tell me what is wrong and how am I going to help you."
"I said go to your room and I don't need help.'' His tone is fierce and commanding, that fear that I had experienced the very night I walked into this castle came, I shrink back, startled by his outburst.
"Don't make the mistake of coming out before sunrise, no matter what." He grunts, these words seem too much of a lump to come through his throat. I nodded in fear and took a step but it seemed too late because of a loud growl, he howled in pain, I turned to look at what was happening to him, he was shifting, was it into his wolf form or something else, his fangs elongated and his breath wasn't stable, slowly his eyes turned red, just as bloody as our first night.
"Rupert!!!" He too turned and look at me, his fierce gaze bore holes in my skin and fear left me crippled, at this point I wanted to run, run through that door and never returned, his shoulder becomes bigger and his face change from a beast to that of a sinful handsome demigod, but this handsome demigod is now like that of the devil with horns, although he had no horn, he is very dangerous.
"Prince Rupert!!!" I called again, parting my lips to say something but then the whooshing sound that passed me sent me to the wall, my back hit the wall, and I howled in pain, his broad shoulders pressed on me, caging me, it wasn't something I was expecting, I called out to him but he didn't seem to hear me, his grip was tight on my wrist that he had pinned above my head, and the next seconds his lips was on my neck and fangs grazing my neck skin.
"Ru... Rupert." He didn't hear me calling, his canines dug into my skin, he suck on my blood, he lick his canines, he goes back to my neck, and he was sucking nonstop, I find myself growing weak and I know that I don't have much time left. "I am dying."
He paid no attention, and slowly my eyes closed, I didn't have any strength left.
"You are going to kill me." The words are much but they are more of whispering, forcefully he pushed me away from himself, and I fell through the stairway. He howled, then the castle down fled open, and that painful outcry of him is no more.
