My Personal Lycan King novel Chapter 57

VICTORIA'S POV

"The hell is wrong with you!" Alexander shouted as he took me in his arms, almost snatching me away from Daniel's arms.

"What is wrong with me? What is wrong with you, Alexander! You knew that Laila doesn't like her, yet you still send her to her for training. Are you out of your mind? Haven't we seen how many times Laila had openly shown her hatred towards her? All of us know, yet you as a mate acts oblivious to the fact." Daniel yelled back with equal intensity.

"You dare yell at your alpha king?!" Alexander said, his voice dropping to a dangerously low tone, making Daniel kneel in front of him in submission.

He just did not use his powers to voice down Daniel, did he?

"I am not yelling at you, Alexander. But is it okay for you to keep her life at stake just like that? What if Laila decides to kill her. What will you be able to do? Okay, you will Kill Laila in return, but then what? You will be left without a mate for your whole life, and me without her!" Daniel said, looking at me with saddened eyes as if saying sorry to me.

"Laila is our pack border control leader. And not only that, but she is also responsible for the training of females. Who was I supposed to send her to if not Laila? Besides, Laila is not the type of girl who would put pack duties over some trivial hatred. I trust her at that." Alexander said.

I hated the fact that the two most important people in my life were fighting like that. That to be over something that was deliberately caused by me.

However, it didn't mean the words uttered by Alexander hurt any less.

"So you mean, you are trusting her over me because you know her for a longer period than you know me? Because she is your trainer leader, you trust her more than me, who is your mate? Some great love bonding you show Alexander. And to say, it hasn't even been a day since I agreed to be your mate. Just great!" I asked, feeling a bit at the edge.

"That's not what I mean, Victoria. What I mean to say is, if she is making you train harder, then she must've had a reason for that. Maybe she just wants to make you the strongest woman in the pack? Because you will be to be Queen?" Alexander consoled as he placed his hands on my cheeks as if trying to make me understand.

I looked towards Laila, who was smirking my way as if mocking me. If I wasn't agitated before, I was surely feeling angry, frustrated, irritated, and whatnot.

"Or maybe, because she doesn't want me to be here in the first place, and she wants everyone to see how incapable I am of being a queen so that she can take my place easily. She has already begun, I can see that." I said, not knowing from where all of these emotions were coming from.

I know I was feeling jealous, but to say and interpret things like these was even beyond me. This was not how I always acted.

Closing my eyes, I concentrated around me as I saw negative energy that had been engulfing me. 

'What's this all about?' I thought, shocked that I didn't even realize that I was under the impact of some foreign energy.

'Your emotions are triggered by my presence, Victoria. However, it doesn't refute the fact that someone is trying to control you, Victoria. 

Someone is deliberately trying to create a feud between you and Alexander. I don't know who that person is, but from the energy that had been surrounding us, it can't be someone weak.' Carla said, and I couldn't help but look at Alexander.

Looking around myself, I tried to figure who that person could be, but to no avail did I found someone. No one around me possessed any witch powers because if someone would, then I would've easily noticed him or her.

"Alexander, leave her alone. You are not helping. You are just triggering her emotions right now." Suddenly I heard a female voice.

Turning around, I smiled thankfully when I saw it was Katie who had come to my aid.

Looking at Daniel, I murmured a thank you before leaving the garden.

I knew that my neck will surely form bruising marks since Laila had pressed a bit too hard for my liking.

Now that I think about that, I wasn't the kind of person to act like a white lotus. Does that mean, I did that trick under the influence of the same dark energy?

Reaching Alexander's room, I wasn't in the mood to stay in this mansion anymore. Energy or no energy, it doesn't mean Alexander was also possessed with some kind of energy because I saw that he wasn't, and he still took Laila's side.

Taking my phone and my wallet, I walked out of the room ready to go back.

As I was passing the first floor, I couldn't help but look at Daniel's room which was partly opened.
