You Rejected Me. Remember?
Chapter 57

Cassy pov

Elliot peeked to see who it was. My heart was already frantic.

“What is going on?” Izzy cried out. She was on full alert.

“Hey! Freeze!” Elliot suddenly ordered and quickly morphed into Rex before roaring ferociously and advancing towards the cell the driver was in.

When I stepped out, I saw Rex roaring at a guard who was holding a dagger. My eyes widened when I saw the guard shriek and plunge the dagger into Rex’s arm. His screams of agony echoed in the dark passageway of the dungeon. My heart raced and Izzy howled when I saw his b***d trickle down his well-defined arm.

“Rex!” I screamed.

“Let me out! Let me rip him open!” Izzy growled and I let her take over.

The shift was quick and smooth since the adrenaline rush had pushed me into fight mode. All I wanted to do was break his bones and claw his heart out.

Izzy growled fiercely and grabbed his arm, and squeezed it, making his forearm break. The sound of his bones cracking sounded like music to my ears. I cheered Izzy on as she landed punch after punch.

“How dare you attack your prince!” Izzy growled.

“Mate! Stop! Don’t kill him. We need to question him.” I heard Rex exclaim. By this time the dagger had already dropped and landed a short distance away from where we stood. The traitor’s face was bloody and swollen. It was only then did I realise that he was already unconscious. I was blinded by rage that I didn’t care what happened to him. I kept pushing Izzy to punch harder.

However, upon hearing Rex’s voice, Izzy calmed down a bit. I felt herself soften as she glanced at Rex.

“Rex…. you are hurt, mate.” She whimpered.

“I am fine. This will heal soon. Just link our parents and get help. We need this guard alive for now.” He replied. Izzy sent a quick mind link to our parents, asking to send guards and some healers to the dungeon.

While we waited for them to arrive, Izzy walked over to Rex and started to lick his wound.

“Mate is hurt.” She kept whimpering. I glanced at Rex who was looking at Izzy lustfully.

“Mate!” He growled. My mouth opened wide. This was the first time I was seeing our lycans like this. Perhaps this was what she witnessed each time when I got intimate with Elliot. But …this was the dungeon for heaven’s sake.

“Izzy! No. He is hurt and both of you will tear this place down!” I warned her.

“If what happens?” I could literally feel the wolfish smirk of this naughty lycan.

“You naughty wolf! Just focus and stop licking him. He obviously is getting other ideas.” I g*****d.

“Other pleasurable ideas.” She replied.

“Izzyyyyy!” I g*****d.

“Fine! If you promise to let us have our way after all of this drama is settled down.” She demanded through our link.

“Okay. Just don’t do it here.” I replied, desperately hoping that these two horny lycans wouldn’t start a show in front of the driver who was still conscious and watching everything. Not to mention the guards and healers who most probably were on their way.

Soon enough, they arrived and so did our parents and both of us morphed back to our human forms. The traitor was taken away, while the healers inspected Rex’s wound. Since he was lycan, he healed pretty soon and nothing much had to be done. Our parents were shocked when we told them about what we had heard.

“We seriously need to do some cleaning up. I wonder how they were able to trick us!” my father was flabbergasted. I glanced at the driver who had now calmed down.

He was shaken up, however, he seemed to be fine.

“How many of our employees are stabbing us behind our backs?” I demanded.

“I….I don’t know your highness. All I know is that he has connections to spy on you all. And he knows everything about our kingdom. I’ve already told you everything I knew.” He said. I searched his face for any signs of lies, however, I couldn’t replace any. I sighed.

“Fine! I swear to God, if I ever replace out that you’ve tricked us again, I will stop going easy on you.” I warned him as I pointed my forefinger at him. However, when I saw how desperate he looked, I felt that he was indeed telling the truth.

“Maybe he is telling the truth babe,” Izzy muttered.

“I think so too. We need to drill that pathetic guard who thought he could trick us and get away with it.” I grumbled.

“Just keep us informed about anything you know. If it is an emergency you can still mind link us.” I muttered in a softer tone.

“We are going to the infirmary. We need to question the traitor.” Mother stated.

“Yeah. We are coming in a while.” Elliot replied as he inspected the place where he was stabbed. I gritted my teeth. My cousin was indeed a lunatic. I would be only too happy to get rid of him.

“What if there are guards who are still loyal to him. Maybe they are the ones who are against us.” Izzy stated.

“You are right. We must replace out.” I replied.

“Cass. Where are you lost at? We need to see the guard in the infirmary. He has regained consciousness.” Elliot said, making me look in his direction.

My eyes darted at his arm which was now healed and took in a shaky breath.

“Did they link you?” I asked and he nodded in response. I stepped closer to him so that I could trace his arm.

“I don’t know if it was my luck or his that you are healed now,” I muttered. He chuckled and pulled me closer to him. “I feel like ripping his limbs apart,” I mumbled into his chest. He laughed a little and held me in his arms, rocking me from side to side.

“We are lycans, honey. We don’t hurt easily.” He replied, placing a soft k**s on my forehead. I looked into his eyes.

“Even if we do get hurt, we recover easily.” He added, gazing deeply into my face. Our eyes spoke in the language of love. I inhaled, taking in his enchanting scent. I didn’t reply. Instead, I leaned forward so that I could connect my lips with his.

He was quick to respond and soon our lips danced together in synchronisation. I felt his arm slowly descend towards my backside, making me arch myself. The twins on my chest rubbed against his rock hard chest. The thin material of our shirts didn’t help at all.

“Look who is going wild now,” Izzy grumbled in my mind, making me chuckle and break our k**s.

Elliot too was grinning. “Your lycan?” He asked and I nodded.

“Rex too wants his mate. Maybe after we settle everything we can let them out do whatever they want to in the forest. We can’t let them go wild in the palace. Too risky.” He said.

“Yeah. Let’s go. We have a traitor to drill with questions.” I muttered as we walked out of the unlit dungeon.

When we entered the room he was kept in, we saw that he was chained to his bed. Our parents were already there. I narrowed my eyes at the chained traitor, who was now avoiding our eyes. His wounds now were slowly healing, albeit the swelling on his forehead had now receded yet.

“You know we have questions to ask you.” I sighed. “How many of you are here?” I asked.

“I’m not saying anything.” He responded, still avoiding our eyes.

“So what do you think? Either way, you aren’t going to be safe. You have betrayed your kingdom. Do you know the punishment for that?” Elliot asked, wrinkling his forehead.

“Whatever. I don’t care. You all are a bunch of traitors anyway. You go back on your words! You are nothing but a bunch of wannabes!” He screamed.

“Wow,” Izzy exclaimed.

I felt my anger shoot up. Since we were in the infirmary, I chose not to reply and stomped out of the door. I realised that Elliot and my mom also followed me out of the room when I felt them beside me.

“He is outrageous.” Mom huffed.

“I know.” Elliot agreed. I was way too angry to say anything. I was trembling in anger. The door opened once again and out came my dad along with Elliot’s father.

“Let’s leave him alone for some time. He is adamant about not helping us.” My dad said.

“Could it be possible that he too is bugged?” I asked.

“Maybe…….. Perhaps we should check for bugs on all our staff.” Elliot suggested.

“Yes. That would be better.” His father agreed. I sighed and glanced at the closed door.

“It is sad that our kingdom is infested with traitors and we never knew. We trusted them.” I said, sadly.

“Yeah. Let’s check on him?” Elliot suggested. Nodding in agreement, I walked with him towards the door.

What I saw made me gasp in utter shock. The traitor who was still chained to his bed lay there, motionless, with b***d oozing out of his mouth and nostrils, his eyes wide open and his face contorted in fear.
