Claimed By My Husband's Enemy novel Chapter 145

Chapter 145

(Ari)

My lifespan depended on how I played on the situation. I shouldn’t be reckless. This was the prince himself. I would be the dumbest person in the whole world to act out in front of him. And yet, his face started to distort in my eyes. Soon, it was replaced by Grigor’s face as he tried to force himself on me to test what I’d learned from pleasuring men and how he smacked me when I spat on his face instead.

The next thing I remembered was how his whip split the skin on my back over and over again.

That’s why when Aidan’s face got too close, I shove him by the chest. Years of trauma made my fist move before I could think about it. And it landed straight on His Highness’ mouth. The haze in my head only vanished the second I saw the blood on his lower lip.

My eyes widened.

Professor Bradley’s glass fell on the marbled floor from shock. Now there were two of us. This was fifty shades of fucked up. I closed my eyes, my shoulders sagging, as I waited for the prince’s retaliation. Alphas always retaliated. They always made a fuss when things didn’t go their way, especially when their puppets failed to move according to plan.

The Academy would certainly send notices to the guardians in case their students died, would they? August would know I failed. He knew about Dani. I trust that he would retrieve her otherwise, I would go back and haunt him as a ghost-

‘Don’t, Sebastian. Stay where you are. Ari doesn’t like to be touched.”

Sebastian must have attempted to move for Aidan to say that. It was probably to kill me.

‘Open your eyes, Ari. I’m not going to hurt you.”

To my surprise, Aidan’s voice remained calm. If anything, it sounded soothing.

When I opened my eyes, I realized he had put a distance between us although it was only about two to three steps, and he looked like he was against it but was only putting up with it. He frowned at the gap before he met my eyes. His wound disappeared in a matter of seconds although the blood that dripped onto his shirt remained

“Please forgive me, Your Highness. I was-“I paused.

What was I supposed to say? Traumatized? Bullied?

Who would believe me?

And why wasn’t he fighting back?

When dad was still alive, we used to see the prince on television. He often had blood on his hands and clothes. Some people called him ‘bloodthirsty. Unlike his father, Alpha King Leo McAllister, Aidan was notorious for spilling people’s blood, some were his enemies while others were just the ones who pissed him off.

I could still recall the first time I saw his face on the screen. His eyes had given me goosebumps back then There was loo much violence in those eyes, too much hatred, as if he despised the entire world.

Since I was still alive and breathing right now, Aidan must have changed during the past years that I was trapped in the

House of Lemadon and hadn’t heard of him.

“I was surprised,” I added when I found a few of my brain cells at last.

“About what?”

“About you calling me yours, Your Highness. I mean I’m a man,” I reminded him in case he failed to notice. “An alpha.”

“And”

Even Shitty behind me gasped while the professor straightened his back at the nonchalance in the prince’s voice as if my gender was the least of his concerns.

So, I was right? He was gay? Not that I was judging. There was a mirror in the room I shared with Shitty. I knew what I looked like. But this was still unexpected.

Why me?

If the prince was after the looks, Prof Bradley would be the better candidate. Did this mean that he and the professor… as if reading my thoughts, the professor shot me a look that could freeze even hell itself. I had to fight a wave of chill especially when he finally spoke, “I know what you are thinking, mutt. We are not like that.”

“Don’t pay them any attention. Focus only on me. They made it clear they were not interested,” Aidan said, as if he wanted my attention solely on him. “And I made it clear I don’t share.”

Sebastian and the Prof’s wolves didn’t seem to agree, but I believed that the human side of them, the more logical one, would win out in the end.

Now I just had to convince this stubborn prince that it wouldn’t work between us.

“You must have realized why I called you here, Ari. You are our mate. Breaking bonds is extremely painful. It requires energy and strength which you cannot lose especially at this point in time.”

Finally, there was a sensible alpha who somehow understood where I was coming from.

“You have to bear with it until I find a mage to remove your bond with these two painlessly and permanently.”

“Why, thank you, Aidan,” the prof said in his ice-cold voice. “How generous of you.”

“You’re welcome, Bradley.”

“What’s going on? You only dated women, Aidan,” Sebastian blurted out, disbelief cross suddenly changing your preference just because this Ari Gray from nowhere happened is your reputation just for…” Shitty motioned me like he had no words to describe me. “That

Said thing was standing here, silently hoping a rock would fall onto him. Maybe not enough to kill him just enough to knock him out so I could regain my peace and think properly even for a moment. And I couldn’t do that with Slutty’s wall howling and pining over me while he looked like he was seconds away from strangling the hell out of me

He was disgusted by me. Well, Shitty wasn’t the only one. I hated him. I hated all his alpha blood represented

Aidan’s voice had a dangerous edge to it when he spoke, “I will only let you off today, Sey. Asud that’s beau of us years of friendship. Call Ari that way again tomorrow and I might forget we are friends”

I had never cheered for the alphas. But for second there, I wanted to do it just to spite Shitty I glanced si hamd him staring at me, his eyes blazing.

I just grinned which obviously pissed him off more.

“I don’t need to explain myself,” their prince added “I don’t need your understanding. I only need you to accepit The sooner, the better. Because I’m not letting Ari go.”

My smile died.

Aidan said all those words to Sebastian while his eyes were on me. To others, that was a declaration. To me, it sounded like a warning.
