Chapter 45. Subtitle: torment them. *** Ryker's POV*** I sighed as I scooped yet another spoon of ice-cream and brought it close to her mouth. She opened her mouth wide and took all of it at once licking her lips as she chuckled at with a gummy Smile. Looking at Tammy now one could tell at once that she had grown more chubby and round the past two months I was away, she even got chubby cheeks now. "I want some chicken noodle soup.. She pouted and I scoffed. "it's right in the middle of the night Tammy. I can't just go get you chicken, you will have to wait till tomorrow,haven't I gotten you your ice cream already? I growled at her, I hated the fact that she was using her pregnancy to toil over me. Her face fell. "I'm sorry babe... 1 just wanted to eat some badly, but I can wait till tomorrow, its rude to boss an alpha king around. I'm sorry,.." She replied diligently and I tried to force a smile at her. Right now my mind was confused and I wasn't concentrating at all, my Luna is pregnant while my mate... I can't just point exactly what to do. As much as I want to be with Melanie I also want to be with Tammy, even if I don't love her I will still be there for her and my pup. A stood up from the chair and walked away with the empty bowl of ice-cream, towards the inner kitchen. I dropped in in the sink and then leaned on it gently as I ruffled my hair not knowing exactly what my problem was and what to do. I could clearly remember the look on Melanie's face when I pushed her away. It was the first time she had genuinely shed tears in front of me, even when I rejected her she didn't cry. I knew that I had messed up real bad, she was already starting to open up to me and love me despite what I did to her in the past, but I still had another problem I caused for my self...Tammy. And solving what I was going through right now is what I am really in turmoil for. " what are you thinking? Let's soak in the bath together. " I heard her soft voice cooed as she hugged me from behind. I sighed and held her hands, gently removing them from my back. "you should get some sleep now Tammy. It's too late in the night to think of taking a bath, you may catch a cold Just do it tomorrow, I have something to take care of. * I said and walked out of the kitchen leaving her behind. I took a shirt from the closet and put it on, then I walked over to the mini bar in my room and opened it, I took out a large bottle of beer and walked out of the room without looking back. "meet me in the pool Jaxon." I spoke to Jaxon softly through our mind link. "can you be more helpful. .. My mate is exhausted and needs me to help her relax after the tormenting task you made her do.. Forget it, I'll be there in twenty minutes. " He nagged, I could tell he was in the middle of something due to the way he replied to me but what else could I do? I could only talk to him at the moment. 5% general POV*** the dragon walked into the mini mansion with his hands crossed behind his back. He took a pause and looked around the place with perking eyes. "hurry up phoenix!” He snapped and Melanie groaned before walking to him with a dull face on. "I've told you countless times dragon king! I don't want to do this. I need to rest! * Melanie snapped at him and the dragon shot her a stare. She shut up immediately. "I'm trying to help you out here. Trust me, you'll feel much better and your anger will reduce after you torment some people a little! * He said firmly and used his mind to kick open the door. He barged in unannounced and the old Mr Beckham was having a solemn chat with his family in the living room Melanie ran after him quickly. "what's the meaning of this Melanie! This is a private family meeting! Why would you barge in, couldn't you wait for us to send you in? * Her ex step mother snapped at her with a glare like always. Her father motioned for his wife to shut up with his hands. The dragon just walked over to the largest seat in the room which was the seat the old Mr Beckham sat on. "get up!" He ordered and Mr Beckham looked at him in shock. Before he could even talk he was lifted up from the seat with a loud and screeching sound of magic, and then flung on the floor. The old man fell hard and hit his arm against the glass table. He grunted in pains and his wife gasped as she ran to him and helped him from the floor quickly. "what's the meaning of this! Why would you barge in here and treat a high rank wolf official like this in his own home. Do you have a dead wish! * The step mother rant on again with her large mouth. "shut up lady! Get up from your seat, I need to sit now, I'm tired of standing! * Melanie snapped at the woman who looked at her in chock and disbelief. "or you want to be thrown on the floor like your husband was!?" She added with a menacing look and brought out her hand as if she wanted to create magic with it, it was funny how the step mother rushed away from the seat in a blink of an eye. "good girl! " Melanie commented and walked toward the seat then sat down comfortably. The dragon smiled at her and gave her a thumbs up, giving her a go ahead to continue with whatever she was doing. "Quincy! She called and her step sister quickly stood up from the seat in fear and rushed towards her with a bowed head. Melanie laughed inwardly and smirked. It was funny how they all crumble at her feet, months ago it was her who did all the chores and gets tormented, it was payback time. Seems the dragon was right when he said tormenting people who offended you was a great way to relief anger. "what's your disgusting sisters name? " Melanie snapped and her other step sister looked in disbelief. me?" The girl asked and Melanie scoffed. "who else is as ugly as you here Candice? " Melanie snapped and Candice immediately rushed to Melanie, falling on her feet in front of her. "good! " Melanie smiled and further made her kneel to the floor with both her hands touching the door, then she lay her legs on her back and leaned back on the chair. Her father and step mother could only watch with anger and not say anything. "now you Quincy, since your the eldest you'll run over to the kitchen and get me a nice cup of coffee in the next two minutes,else your dead! * Melanie snapped and Quincy ran away like a mad dog. The old Mr Beckham could not keep his anger in anymore. "you really enjoy tormenting your own family and siblings don't you? You ungrateful brat! * He snapped and immediately got choked my an unknown force. He gagged and tried to keep his breath steady. "don’t even use your trashy mouth to speak I'll of my grand niece. I'll kill you without remorse. Do you think I was stupid to let my sister give you her daughter to marry? You think I didn't know how you treated the poor girl and married this hoe here to born this bitches for you? And worse you maltreated your own real daughter because her mother got in a sick condition while trying to save her. So don't make me any more angry, I can kill all your family now. * The dragon ranted and let go of the force holding the dragon. He fell to the ground, Melanie walked over to him with a cold face. She then bend down to his level and looked him in the eye. "a brat you say? Ungrateful brat right? Did you ever say anything when your wife,no mistress and children call me names and maltreat me? Did you ever care even if I had a meal or not? Did you ever care to check on your sick mate whom you blame me for her condition? Did you do anything good to me in this life at all? " Melanie asked with tears in her eyes. She was really going to pour out her mind to everyone, she had kept it in for too long. "I know it's bad that I'm tormenting you now for your sins,but that's all I can do to ease my anger. I'm going to make sure you all pay for my anger. You and this damn pack!" She snapped and banged her hands hard on the table besides her that the glass broke into pieces.
