Chapter 131: A Reckless Payback

Serafina turned to look at her sister before saying to her, "Now be polite to Alpha Sokolov. Don’t say or do things that might make him upset, alright?"

"When did I ever?" Jules rolled her eyes and then stomped out of the mansion without looking behind her.

When Peter saw her leaving, he opened his mouth but turned silent when Serafina turned and glared at him. This was not the time for them to talk about alliances, anyway. If this mating match worked, then their pack would be aligned with the Red Blood Hill anyway.

Of course, her husband didn’t understand her meaning and thought that she found him embarrassing, which only made him resent her even more.

While Peter was stewing in his own frustrations, Jules was troubled as well. She looked at the sleek black car that was half hidden in the darkness and frowned hard. Shouldn’t that man have come outside by now and opened the door of the car for her? Why was he sitting inside?

Did he think that she was just any girl he was taking to a dinner date? Stubborn and arrogant as she was, Jules stood where she was without making any move. She was the princess of the Drakos family and deserved just the finest treatment.

Ryder, who was the driver for the night, looked at the woman. He opened his mouth and turned to look at Killian, who had his eyes closed. Even though the man was dressed to impress, he didn’t seem to have the slightest bit of inclination to impress this woman. He parted his lips but swallowed his words as he knew that the man wouldn’t bother with Jules.

Stepping outside, Ryder walked over to the other side of the car and opened the door.

"Miss Drakos, please."

He didn’t say it outright, but he hoped that the woman would be smart enough to understand his meaning.

However, his hopes were doomed to dash when the woman crossed her arms in front of her chest and huffed, "I am the princess of the Drakos family. Is this how your alpha is going to treat me? As my mating match, he should be the one opening the door for me."

’What a waste of such a beautiful face,’ thought Ryder as he turned to look at Killian, who was sitting inside with his eyes closed and then turned to look at Jules. All of a sudden, he felt he was stuck between the stones of a stone mill. He was going to end up as dust.

However, Ryder knew that there was no point in talking about gentlemanly attributes with Killian, so he stood on the side with his arms crossed.

A good three minutes passed by, and Killian never made a move; it only made Jules even angrier. What was this man trying to do? Why didn’t he come outside to greet her? She thought while fuming inwardly.

With the delay, it didn’t take long for Serafina and Peter to come outside and see what was going on. And when the time continued to tick by, even the servants and the maids started to stop and see what was going on. Soon, the submissive shifters also started to peer in their direction.

Another four minutes passed by, and finally Killian opened his mouth and said, "Ryder, what’s going on? If she is not ready, then let’s go back. I am done wasting my time here."

What did he say?

Jules’s eyes blazed with anger as she snapped, "I am standing right here. Why don’t you open your eyes and take a look?"

Killian didn’t. He was used to handling women like Jules, who believed that the world revolved around them, especially when they were the last of the shifters of their kind and everyone wanted to imprint on them.

He said in a calm voice, "Since you are already here, what’s with the halt? This is not the sixties or the nineties. Get in the car on your own. Don’t tell me that you were dreaming of a knight in shining armour?"

Jules’s face turned red with anger and embarrassment. How rude. She thought as she walked past Ryder and got in the car. Her father would hear about this! How dare this man treat her in such a way? She was the princess of the dragons. The finest of the dragons. No one had dared to treat her in such a way.

While Jules got in the car, she had no idea what was waiting for her. Or the fact that the fancy date that she was hoping for was never going to happen.

"Are you sure that this is the correct place?" Inez asked as she entered the sushi restaurant. No matter how she looked at it, this place didn’t seem all too great for a first date. A great place to hang out, but not a great place for dating.

She looked at the plastic tables that were placed all over the building, along with the many stools placed in front of the moving machine on which multiple sushi plates were placed.

"I am sure." Nyx was pretty confident in her reply. She turned to look at Inez and said, "It might look a bit weird, but that’s how Killian is. He still hasn’t forgotten Lyra, which is why he ruins every mating match meeting that his mother arranges for him."

And there it was. The subtle pang in her chest at the mere mention of Lyra.

It must be anger.

That man had kissed her twice when he was still trapped in the memories of his mate. How could she not be angry? How dare that man use her as he pleased?

Her eyes hardened, and she turned to look at Nyx. "What are we going to do?"

"Nothing stupid, please," said Selene.

"Of course not," Nyx’s eyes glinted as she told the two of them her plans, while Inez agreed with her on it being one nasty payback, Selene simply groaned as she announced, "So it is a stupid plan."
