AMIR

Adira had stormed out directly after Genesis had left. It doesn't take a genius to know that she's about to confront her.

I smirked, smoothing the jacket of my suit. Adira has gone to pick a fight no doubt and that sparked a little excitement within me. It would be wonderful to see how she handles herself during a confrontation such as this.

Genesis is like a breath of fresh air for me, everything about her that I've experienced so far is far more intense than I have ever experienced. And trust that I have had my fair share.

Flirting with her and teasing had every nerve ending in my body electrified. And she flirted right back.

"Tsk tsk tsk, I can't wait to show you why playing with fire is dangerous my love" I whispered to myself before making my way to the conference room.

On my way to the meeting I couldn't help my imagination from straying. The things I will do to her when the time has come.

"Ladies and gentlemen of the werewolf race, Amir is smiling" Armani greeted falling into step with me.

Shaking my head at his antics, I realized that I was indeed smiling.

"I heard you've been skipping your studies again" I said calmly.

"Umm. Technically no" he trailed off.

I tossed him a side glare and I watched as he resisted the urge to roll his eyes.

"It won't happen again" he groaned beneath his breath.

"I know" I stated.

He knew how seriously I took studying and I will not tolerate him slacking off. Not now, not ever.

There was only one reason that Armani would find me on a day he knew I'd be busy. Without waiting for him to asked I reached into my pocket and produced a credit card.

"You're the best! Now I can buy Genesis whatever she wants on our date" he wiggled his eyebrows.

A low growl came from my chest despite my better judgement. My wolf was still on edge regarding our mate, and he took every and anything as a threat. Including our kid brother apparently.

"Down big boy, down" He mocked as if speaking to a dog before speeding off down the hallway.

I snarled at his playfulness finding it infuriating.

Pushing through the double doors of the conference room I was greeted by the council's low chatter.

"King, Lady Adira has informed us of your infidelity" a member of the council stated before I could even take my place at the table.

"Don't speak" I replied gruffly walking to my seat at the head of the table.

Once I received the appropriate greeting I sat down, icily glaring at them all.

Not only were the council present but the elders of the noble family as well. Leaning back in my seat I waited for someone to speak.

"Well?" I asked.

By the initial approach I can tell that this will be a rather petty meeting.

"With all due respect your highness, Adira is suppose to be your wife what am I currently hearing of an infidelity scandal?" Adira's mother spoke.

"I've never proposed" I said with an air of indifference. "Next"

"But your highness Adira has been promised to you from you both were children." Mrs Valentino tried again.

This was already beginning to get tiresome.

"Is this why I have been summoned?" I asked growing annoyed.

"I have always been clear with her regarding where we stood. Now she violates my privacy, the privacy of my guests, and my peace of mind with these useless antics of hers"

"But Ami-" I shot her a glare daring her to finish that sentence.

"And to make a bad situation worse she also wastes my time calling this unnecessary hearing?"

"I agree" Zekiel said which also got a nod from his brother Heza.

"I am in no position to honor this tradition any further" I stated calmly.

At that statement chatter broke out in the room and an hysteric Adira stood from her seat.

"But King it's tradition. It has been done since the very first King sat on the throne." Mr. Valentino pleaded.

They had there own ambitions as to why they wanted this marriage. This union meant more wealth and an obvious social and genetic boost for their bloodline.

"Is it because of that bitch?" She screamed.

I was no longer in the mood to tolerate her disrespect, I have been far too lenient with her. I signaled for my guards to contain the female that stood before me.

"Is this who I should take as my Queen? One who acts as an insolent child when she doesn't get her way?" I asked.

She hung her head in shame, and a whimper left her throat.

"Amir, I l-" she began.

"One who doesn't listen? How many times have I told you not to refer to me by my given name? Such an honor is not reserved for you."

Taking a calming breath I took a look around the room. Such a waste of my time.

"Give her 2 days in the dungeon, no food." I said to my guards.

"On what grounds!" Mrs Valentino demanded.

"Disrespecting your King......and your Queen" I spat.

Shocked silenced the room at my revelation but I know they were all focused on the latter part of my statement.

I stood and left.

The entire time back to my wing I was fuming. My wolf was demanding that I remind everyone why I was king.

How freely had they abandoned manners and regarded me with such disrespect.

Continuously.

Reaching my wing of the castle I threw open my door and changed into some casual clothing.

I need to see her, and I need to see her now.

Taking a calming breath I reached out to my guard through the mind meld. He has been keeping tabs on her just to ensure that she has been safe throughout the day.

Your highness, She headed back to the house about an hour ago, both her and the male. They've been there since.

She's still with that friend of hers. I snarled hating the fact that poor excuse of a man was in my house, possibly flirting and seducing my mate.

A thunderous growl left my throat.

My wolf had already been on edge and this thought irritated him even more.

Pacing my bedroom I tried to decide what I would do and how I would approach this situation.

I thought for less than a second before deciding that logic would have to evade me today.

I will not allow this any longer.

Storming outside of my bedroom I marched directly to her wing.

I could hear his obnoxious voice through my house and her giggles that followed.

What the fuck was so funny to her?

Snarling, this solidified what I had discovered today.

Everyone was way too comfortable disrespecting me and I will not have it.

His scent was all over her wing, I would rip his head off his body if it's the last thing I do.

"Genesis" I growled knocking at her door.

"Open the fucking door" my voice had dropped octaves lower.

"Now"
