Auctioned to the Cruel King - Chapter 4: Chapter 4

Lance’s pov
The first thing that jolted me awake was the searing heat of the pain, smoking hot and it ran up to my brain like I was a second from running mad. My head sparkled and I clutched my head as a deep feral growl threatened to slip out.
When I tried to ingest it and get to my portion, it hit again like a tsunami. “Fuckkkk!!” The words were jagged and dragged out of me, the world around me spun and I remained on the bed.
But even that would not help as it hit again, so fucking strong like my beast part was trying to break out of my head.
Blood….he want..ed blooddd.
Dropping to my feet, another scream tore through me, the sound felt like gravel was in my throat but it was nowhere near the agony of pain.
I saw my claws forced their way out, as they did, blood oozed from their projecting form. My heart was ripped into two and my skin felt like it was on fire and my beast was trying to break through by melting my skin.
When I reached the cupboard to pull out the portion——-fuck! My eyes widened and I tossed myself back, arching in the direction the pain had hit from. So close, I could almost taste the tang of the portion that my demon side so very well loathed.
It kept him in chains and he hated that. Hated to be fucking caged behind my mind. He was whirling, hitting at my mind to break free and just as I popped it open, pain like ten thousand burning sun unleashed as a loud primal animalistic growl rippled through me, my eyes shut and my lungs burned like silverbane was emptied on it.
I dropped to the ground on one knee as I felt the skin beneath my toe tear and in stead, claws dragged out, jagged with an inferno of pain…..
Door burst open, my visions were tunneled and red, out to seek blood, out to be free. I couldn’t recognize who had barged in. I tried to wedge control on him, but he had a mind as solid as a fucking rock, impenetrable and the pain I was feeling was fucking maddening.
“Lance?”
I heard voices, but so far they were muffled like their head was fucking submerged in water. Unclear and hazy. The pain made me flung myself forward just to escape the burning pain but all that caught me were grips.
Screw this!
“You have to fight it, Lance!!”
Another jab of the pain at the back of my head caused me to swing my hand and reach for anything to use and get these fuckers off.
They get an opening, when I felt another jab deep and visceral into my bones that cause me to drop two knees on the ground scream like a dying fucking mammal. The anguish from the pain drew blood from me that made me take a glance of death!
“Hold him down!”
“Do it! Now!”
I caught the needle as it was coming close to my skin, with a feral growl, I roared and sent him flying across the room.
“Fuck! Fuck!”
All the hands around me instantly let go and I lunged for the door. As I took hold of the damn door knob, my senses were set ablaze and I went stumbling back. I grabbed my head in pain to stop it, when it didn't stop I fisted my hand around my neck.
I would fucking take the head out to keep the pain away. In a second, hands were on me once again, I felt my beast charge with his horns, ready to spill blood when……
….. everything cooled off like I was drenched into a river. The portion. I know it. Hands by my side. My tunneling vision enlarges and then I regain slight control. That alone made him growl in my head. He wanted to attack but the portion took effect and took us out.
The first thing that wafted through my nose was her fucking scent. That scent that made me want to twist her head like a twig.
“What are you doing here?!” Irritation flares hot in my gut that I shut up. “What is she doing here?!” I was already up on my feet charging towards her when hands held me back.
She trembled like some wet leaf, fear rippling through her like fucking tides. “Get out!” I barked out snatching my hand from Alaric. “Out! Or you die here!” Saliva flew out as my claws protruded from my nails.
The moment her eyes caught sight of it, she jumped and scampered out.
I didn’t trust her, I didn’t trust any of them. They were only out for what would benefit them. I wouldn’t hesitate to slit her throat if she double crossed me.
“Who was it? Who allowed her inside her?” The damn sight of her barrelled through my mind in a raging manner.
Facing the physician and a handful of my guards, I noticed then how much of a mess the room currently was. “Out! All of you! Get out!!”
My control was running so damn thin, everyday that passed, my beast side was getting even more ferocious and feral.
“Nobody finds out about this, understand?” My right hand man, Alaric instructed. They nodded as they scurried out, almost tripping one the other.
I be damned.
“So, why was she in my room?” I wasn’t being docile, there was nothing to be docile about, I was losing motherfucking time every second this thing inside me pushed to have his way.
I turned to the doc, head on, eye to eye. Even with the portion I still felt the hum of the adrenaline, the energy that brittles under my skin, itching to break through.
It started two years ago. I’d deemed to be some distort with having a feral beast living in your mind, however his determination had ensued like granite to rip himself right out of my flesh. Worse, I can’t bear the scent of others. The disgust me, all of them. Except…
“I had some new ideas which I wanted to try, it is barely a speculation at best, but...”
“What is it?”
The mere thought that there could be a way to escape this inferno of pain and anguish in my brain caused the rush of adrenaline and made me gnash my teeth at his slow pace of delivering the knowledge. That was precisely why I’d secured a private winx for him; to experiment and find the cure.
“Tell me.” They were simple words but it felt like I was speaking with shards of glass stuck in my damn throat.
“Her.” He simply said like that would explain any goddamn thing. My nose flared as my eyes twitched. “The girl, she is the remedy I can see.”
Hell.
I didn’t need some she-wolf to be able to tame my beast if I wasn’t able to do it. And it was beyond me how her scent had sent the ferocious beast in my head quiet when I first encountered her in the auction place.
The snarling, roaming and shoving had quietened when I caught her scent.
She as the remedy, no fucking way, I didn’t want some comly low life wolf to control me. And she might just as end up like the others before her. I’d merely bought her because throughout all the seasons of my episode no woman had been able to calm us, but she did and that aggravated me.
More than that, she’s my mate, just how my other half likes to toy with me. I’d made the bargain only because the throne will need an heir, and the earlier that is archived, the earlier she leaves.
“No, I would not allow that.”
“She can put a leash on him while we tackle a way to heal the both of you. You have to give it a try, Alpha.”
