Chapter 64 - 64: Scared 'em

Kelsey

What felt like hours later the royals finally woke up, first the queen who woke the king up with her scared whiny yelling, "Wh—where am I!? Who are you and what do you want!"

I smirked and answered calmly, "Someone who's going to force you to get rid of that bounty for Prince Mason and Princess Skye."

"That's preposterous! We would never put a bounty on our sons head!" The king objected. I crossed my arms and raised a brow.

"Oh really? Because, our sources say otherwise. Now, either admit it or we start your torture." I stated.

They both scoffed at me and snarled, "We wouldn't want our dear son to die and not overthrow us. As for Skylar, that skelpie-limmer shouldn't have been born in the first place." On the outside my smirk grew evil as I kept making myself think of what Skye would do, but inside my face dropped with disbelief and sadness. So that's why she goes by Skye... Skylar must be so triggering for her... Jesus christ these two shouldn't be parents, not even fake ones. If only Skye could help with this, maybe itd cheer her up a bit... but my memories of what she does will have to do. I approached the king first, scare the queen since she's oh so sincere about caring about him. I pulled out a knife I had on my belt and held it close to him as I slowly stepped in a circle around him.

He fought his restraints with the queen doing the same across the room and growled, "Get away from me pathetic girl. You can't scare me into talking."

I chuckled and replied, voice like honey, "Oh... but I think I can. I already scare you and if I hurt you enough before you talk, your dumb wife sure will to try to end your pain." He tried even harder to get out of his ropes and cuffs but to no avail. I looked over to the queen as I stabbed the knife into one of his hands, causing him to scream. She screamed at me to stop hurting him but I just stabbed his other hand. I let them yell and scream for a little bit then calmly asked, "You going to lift the bounty?"

"Never." The king growled through his tears, so I shrugged and slowly traced the knife up one of his arms. I didn't cut him deep, just enough to cause immense pain and bleeding.

"How bout now?" I slightly mocked, prepping the knife for the other arm. "I'll never talk to you stupid worm!" He yelled at me, so I flicked my eyes to Drake to signal him to torture the queen a bit. He pulled out his own knife as the king started yelling no at us. Drake raised his hand to stab the knife into her hand like I did and the king yelled, "Alright fine!!!! I'll lift the bounty!!! Don't lay a hand on my queen!"

"Hmm.... and here I thought she would stop me from hurting you.. guess she doesn't love you as much as you think." I said to the king, shrugging as I slowly strode away. Drake did the same and we both shared a look then I made us both invisible. We went and knocked them out, then made a portal to Trealle again.

On the other side Mason seemed to have jumped in surprise then asked, "Wow done already?" I smirked and nodded, dropping the queens foot harshly.

"Now we just gotta make sure they actually lift the bounty." I said glaring down at them. I sighed and figured we should put them back in their chairs, so I dragged the queen over and with Mason's help sat her back on her chair. We helped Drake do the same with the king, then before leaving to hide I quietly but firmly said in their ears, "Remember, we'll be watching. So lift the bounty like you promised or else one of you won't be waking up tomorrow." I then made Drake and I invisible again and we hid where we did before. When they finally came to again they looked around in confusion.

"That was real wasn't it..?" The queen muttered then noticed the king's bleeding arm. "Oh your arm!" She exclaimed worriedly as she stood up. "We need to get it bandaged!" She added, trying to gently tug him into standing up.

"Why would you let me get this harmed in the first place?" He asked flatly, not looking at his wife.

She seemed to struggle with answering then said, "I was keeping to our promise of never dropping it, I'm sorry.." Pf. Anyone with ears could tell she was lying.

"Oh my! Father what happened to your arm and hand!?" Mason piped up to make them remember he was still there.

They initially sent him a glare then fake softened their expression as the king stood and said, "None of your concern." They turned and left the room so Drake and I came out of hiding.

"I think it's actually my mom who put the bounty on my head, my dad seems to at least somewhat care still. There was sorrow in his eyes when he told me that his bleeding arm wasn't my concern." Mason said as he stared at the door.

"I think so too. Least if shit comes up we can pin the disappearance and torture of the king on her since she doesn't have a scratch on her." I replied, smirking a little evilly after.

Mason reflected that smirk then told us, "You should probably go make sure they go lift it."

"Yeah.. would be smart. Love you dude." I responded, giving him a quick hug that he returned.

"Love you too bro." So cute how he's learning our world slang, and joking how we do. Drake and I went invisible again and followed their scent trail to the medical person's room.

"And how did this happen again exactly?" The doctor asked as he bandaged the king's arm and hand.

"Uhhwwe aren't sure... one minute we're about to have breakfast the next we're waking up with our heads on the table and he's wounded." The queen answered a little hesitantly. The doctor didn't seem to entirely believe her but didn't question any further and sent them on their way. We silently followed them and watched as they went to secretly meet the main bounty hunter, or I guess rather the guy they hired to set the bounty.

"Greetings your majesties, what brings you by?" The guy said as he bowed politely.

"We.. we are here to ask you to lift the bounty on the prince and princess..." The queen answered, voice quivering in fear ever so slightly. What a fake ass lil bitch.

The bounty guy furrowed his brows and questioned, "You sure? You realize I charge a cancelling fee of the price of the bounty I'm asked to set?" They both sighed and nodded, handing over a sack of presumably money. He shrugged as he took the bag and checked to make sure it's what he wanted then shooed them away. They reluctantly left and headed back to the castle, heads held high in front of everyone. I snickered soundlessly to myself as I watched them crumble behind their closed doors.

"Who do you think those horrid people were?" The king asked sounding pissed.

"I don't know... but whoever they are, better not come back... vile creatures... ruining our lives... hope Skylar doesn't come back either, what a useless piece of cow dung." She said her name with so much venom I almost jumped out to stab her for my sister, but before I could even blink Drake held me in a way that silently told me not to. I rolled my eyes and nodded, agreeing to not actually do that. I then smirked evilly as a thought came to mind.

I headed over to the door frame and made myself visible again playing with my knife and said in fake hurt, "Well that's not very nice of you to say now is it?" I watched as they jumped and glared at me.

"Why are you back!? We did what you asked, leave us alone! Gua—"

"Ah ah ah... you tell on us and you'll regret it. Your guards can't catch us so don't waste your breath, or else it'll be your last." I interrupted then left, disappearing once they couldn't see me. We headed to Mason's room to say bye to him and warned him to watch his back then made a portal to the pack house to drop Drake off and I went to the agency by myself. I headed to boss' office and like usual waited for his blob to appear.

"Done already agent?"

"Yes sir, was Mason's parents that hired someone to set a bounty on them, but I've scared them into not doing that ever again."

He dipped his head in approval and responded, "Good. Well done agent Rose, I'll call you in when I have another mission for you."

"Okay. Agent out." I replied then hung up and left. I went back to the pack house for more Luna training. Once we finished that for the day we flopped onto Drake's bed and sighed tiredly.

"Think they'll really stay away from trying to kill them?" Drake asked rolling onto his side to look at me.

I shrugged and answered, "Probably, you see how much I scared the shit outta them? Haha I probably ruined their marriage too. Which is ironic since he's the one that cheated."

My mate chuckled and replied, "You most certainly did. That queen is the fakest bitch I've ever seen. Maybe she stopped loving him after he did that and just stayed for the money." I chuckled and nodded.

"Well. Let's get some sleep, we should visit Skye tomorrow." Drake nodded (again) and we got ready for bed then went to sleep. Hope she's a little better after spending all that time with Dylan.
