The Broken Prince - Chapter 96

“Look, I know that I have not been that nice to you, o-or have approached you nicely but what I say is the truth. It was never my intention to hurt you emotionally. But now that I seem to have hurt you this way, then might as well go all the way and tell you the reason why. Alexander, I have my reasons as to why I despise you not because of how you are but because of where you came from. I am even surprised because you still don’t know the reason why but I will not tell you about that as it is that person’s responsibility to not keep you in the dark for so long because you might become blind. If you had been from another kingdom, I would have not acted like that in the first place. I know that you are not dumb to think that I do what I do to you for no reason. Yes, I also feel a certain way about you but I will not be able to accept that feeling as I could only see you as one of my enemies and a person who’s blood is one with the person who did me so wrong. From now on, I tell you that all I will feel for you is distaste and despise. Nothing else, I say that in the hopes that you get a one track mind about us. So that you won’t be confused in the future. Our relationship will simply stand as enemies.” Hade spoke which somehow made my heart break into a thousand pieces.

Rage started to fill my senses as my hands clenched into a ball and my breathing got inconsistent.. My ears were starting to ring as my tears no longer fell for my eyes held nothing and no more of sadness but remorse and anger along with regret and broken hopes. Remorse for he acts like this when he says that he hates me. Anger both for him and myself for I have been a fool to believe that we’d be okay even just as friends or as colleagues but no, hopes are no longer seen for that. Regret because for a second, despite how much I wanted to hold back, I acknowledged my feelings for him just a moment ago, right before he shattered everything into pieces and shards that has now made my stance as to how he is, bleed with anger and spite.

I snickered in spite of all the things that I was feeling and looked at him with nothing bu an empty face that no longer held emotion.

“You are such a hypocrite you know that Hade?” I spoke. His eyes looked confused as his brows became furrowed.

“You said all of those things, with you not acknowledging all of your other feelings for me which I know what they exactly are. But your words and actions do not match at all.” I snickered and walked even further away from him with my back now facing his gaze. I could feel his eyes digging holes in my back but I will no longer acknowledge him and his presence. Hurt me ones, that’s on you but if I let you hurt me more than that, it’s on me.

I grabbed the knob after I wiped my face with my hands and made sure that I looked alright and presentable before looking back at him.

“Next time you say those words, don’t make it so obvious that you want to put your dick in my ass next time. You act like an alpha around me, and I am no mate of yours. Practice more Hade.” I slammed the door and left him there as for the last time tonight, I looked at him straight in the eye and saw something flash quickly on them as if they were never there and can make one think that they might be seeing things but I am no blind person but I know that he’s going to come up with another bullshit of an excuse to best left it with no remarks.

As soon as the others saw me, they approached me immediately with a worried gaze.

“Where were you. You were gone for too long.” Dianne spoke. I was about to answer when Dianne opened her mouth to speak again.

“Hade, where have you been.” I smirked as an idea flashed right through my mind. I did not have any second thought for regrets as I opened my mouth to answer and spew some words that I never thought I would say.

“Oh, we did some things. Right Hade.” I spoke with a daring smirk as I faced Hade who looked quite shocked by my statement. But then I saw Apollo with a gloomy expression thus I smiled warmly as I walked towards him and held his hands with mine.

“Don’t worry, by that I mean he just went on with his usual talk when its me like; ‘oh I am so gonna kill you’ things.” I laughed lightly despite feeling no happiness inside me. Apollo seemed to have bought the reasoning for he smiled and held my hands tighter. I know now that Apollo likes me and plans to take me on a date after this and I am actually looking forward to that.

Why waste my tears to someone that sees me for being so irrelevant. For as he sees me like that, he too, in my eyes shall not matter more that a worm that I am about to step upon.

Oh just you wait Hade Morningstar, you see me as an enemy you say? Then I will become the biggest enemy you will ever encounter. Let’s see how long can you hold out when I show you my furry, I may be nothing to your eyes now but once my plan is in full circle, I’ll scrap my false pretenses and this disgusting skin of mine to reveal what I have become and who I really am. Till then, I shall be looking forward as to how you will eat your words as you, Hade Morningstar, the youngest King and ruler, will be defeated by the person you saw as worthless and a waste of time.

Another idea popped into my mind and I could feel myself smirking so maniacally that I had to control my actual face from recreating it. He played with me with that type of strategy and I must admit, he got me good with my emotions. Now why don’t I turn the table around and do the same thing. He already gave me the word that he feels another way towards me but can’t seem to accept it. Well then, I shall make you accept it and then drop you to the ground once you became the fool that you really are. He should be thanking me because I am only thinking of dropping him once when he has done that to me multiple times. Although no promises of it not hurting that much. Feelings are not to be toyed with as they can either make or break a person but in his case, breaking him is the only option.

“Everyone, please head to the lift right this instance, we are about to start. But first, gather around as I am about to give you a briefing of what will happen.” The receptionist announced. I lost my thought about my plan with Hade and decided to focus on this one which is more important. We all gathered with out designated team. I walked towards where Pearl and the others were and Apollo did not want to let me go but I only smiled at him before saying that it is needed because if we did not do so, we might have a word with the receptionist so he ended up letting me go but only after he kissed my hand. I smiled warmly at him and looked for Hade who was staring at me with his eyes flickering with jealousy. Ah I’m not even starting yet. I laughed mentally and focused my attention to my colleagues who smiled at me.

“Sorry, they like me too much.” I spoke which made them laugh.

“Oh we know your majesty. Who wouldn’t like you, you’re an absolute joy to be with.” Leo spoke with a smile.

“Aw, that’s very kind of you Leo, thank you.” I answered before I motioned everyone of us to gather and move as to where the receptionist was. Once we were all gathered, the receptionist only then, started to speak.

“So this is what’s going to happen, the Headmaster will give a few words of welcome for our guest before the announcer will call you one by one after an entertainment performance. When that time comes, please be prepared and alert. Once your names are called, the lift will go up and a spotlight will shine above you. The announcer will then ask for some few words but you must keep it brief but also concise. After that all of you will line up and give the crowd your final bow and then lights goes off. The lift goes down and you go to your respective changing area as the clash will begin an hour after the program ends. You all know what you guys should bring. After you are set to go, a person will explain the rules before you are transported to the dome. Is everything clear?” Ah this is it.
