CHAPTER THIRTY SIX
Naya felt angry as she walked to her room.
Rhys ruined her and Esme ruined it further.
She barged into her room, only to see Zara in the bed, reading a book.
“Naya, you’re back!” Zara exclaimed in surprise as she sat up from the bed.
“Oh Zara, you won’t believe what that jerk Rhys did to me and then Esme!” Naya exclaimed, throwing herself into the chair by the desk with a huff.
“Oh no, what did that idiot do this time and Rhys what did he say?? Were you able to convince him” Zara asked, her eyes narrowing with concern.
“He and Esme… they… I don’t even know!
I tried talking to Rhys but he didn’t even give me a listening ear, I even tried acting up but he was just so cold and refused to listen to me. I’m fuckin tired Zara. I’m doomed and I’m bound to him forever..” she lamented as she fought the urge not to cry.
Zara sighed as she climbed off the bed and walked over to Naya, reaching out to pat Naya’s shoulder in comfort.
“Naya, you need to calm down. I understand that you’re upset, but we need to figure out what’s going on before doing anything rashly” She advised in a low voice. They were dealing with vampires and vampires were cruel creatures.
“Calm down!” Naya yelled at the top of her voice.
“How do you expect me to calm down when I’ve been subjected to be a sex toy forever, Zara” Naya asked in a low tone, feeling her heart ache at the thought of what Rhys did.
He betrayed her, big time.
“I don’t understand, Naya. What do you mean you’ve been subjected to being a sex toy? You’ve never mentioned anything like this before,” Zara asked, her voice trembling slightly with concern.
Naya took a deep breath, trying to steady herself before replying.
“It’s fuckin the same thing, being his woman, Is the same as being a sex toy. I’m only a tool to relieve him of his sexual desires!” Naya stated in a firm voice.
She still couldn’t believe that Rhys would do that to hurt her, he never cared. Never.
“But I thought he was Kai and you liked Kai. You both had something right?” Zara grilled.
“I was so blinded by his charm and good looks that I didn’t see what was really happening until it was too late.
I saw the signs but I ignored them. It was so obvious that Rhys was someone important but I never listened to that and just allowed myself to be swayed by him..” Naya sniffed as her sister hugged her.
Zara could feel her pain, she knew how fully well Naya was hurt and it only made her wish that there was something she could do about it.
Naya and Zara held each other in silence for a moment, each lost in their own thoughts. Finally, Zara pulled away and looked Naya in the eye.From NôvelDrama.Org.
“Listen to me, Naya. Just listen very well..” Zara began as she took in a good breath.
“I think we shouldn’t try to do anything rash, we should tackle this issue with care and wisdom..” Zara began as Naya narrowed her eyes at her.
“What do you mean?” Naya mumbled in a low voice.
Naya’s eyes narrowed with suspicion. Her gut instinct told her to act fast, but Zara’s words gave her pause. At this moment, the stakes felt higher than ever, she wanted to leave.
“Care and wisdom won’t get me out of this fuckin mess. We need to strike now before it’s too late!” Naya argued passionately.
“I hear you, but listen to me!” Zara pleaded.
“Let’s assess the situation”
“You liked Rhys when you thought he was Kai and you only feel you hate him now because you feel cheated. What I’m trying to say now is that you play along with the situation. Be his submissive, you like him so you have nothing to lose..” Zara advised but Naya suddenly snapped get hand away from Zara’s hold.
Naya’s eyes flashed with anger as she recoiled from Zara’s grip. She was never one to back down from a challenge, but this situation felt different.
“No way!” she exclaimed, her voice rising with each word.
“I can’t let him get away with lying to me. I won’t be his pawn, no matter how I feel about him. Rhys thinks he’s in charge, but he hasn’t seen anything yet.”
“What are you even saying Zara, do you know the gravity of this? I’ll be bound to him forever..”
“But you’ll still enjoy a lot of privileges!” Zara was the one who yelled this time as she felt Naya was being angry for no reason.
She was just acting up, a lot of people would kill to be in her position but she didn’t want it all because she claimed she needed freedom. Fuck freedom.
“If we manage to leave here someday to get revenge on Magnus, how do you intend to do it? Which Money? What army are you going to use to do that? Have you forgotten that Magnus is a very powerful man and you and I were just princesses who were reduced to nothingness? We’ve lost everything, our family, people, loved ones. Can’t you see that this is a very big opportunity for us Naya ….?” Zara asked as she concluded breathing heavily.
Zara’s arguments resonated with Naya’s desire for vengeance against Magnus, but the idea of becoming Rhys’s submissive was still a hard pill to swallow. Yet, deep down, Naya knew that if she wanted to survive and one day bring justice to her family, she needed to play the long game.
“But..” she was still reluctant.
“No fucking buts Naya, this is not about ourselves, but about getting justice for the people we lost, for Mom for Dad. Right now we need resources to face Magnus..” Zara pointed out.
“Fine,” Naya conceded, her jaw clenched. “I’ll be his ‘submissive,’ but only until I have the opportunity to stab him in the back.
“Good.” Zara gave a curt nod of approval.
“The game begins now. We need to start by playing our roles to a T, earning Rhys’s trust. Our revenge hinges on this. And don’t forget, a submissive is still powerful-she holds sway over her master’s heart, after all.”
Naya nodded grimly, a cold resolve taking hold in her heart.
“You’re right,” she said through gritted teeth.
“But how are we going to do it?”
“We can’t let them know we’re werewolves..” Naya reminded her sister.
But it seemed like Zara already had everything planned out.
“I’ll take care of that. Right now we just need to gain the vampires’ trust and find out why we lost our powers, we need to get them back.”
“Agreed,” Naya responded, the wheels in her mind already turning.
“We can use this ‘submissive’ role to our advantage. Gain their trust, gain their confidence.” A slight smirk tugged at the corner of her lips.
“But let’s not forget, they may be vampires, but we’re still wolves at heart. And wolves are survivors.”
Zara mirrored her sister’s smirk, a dangerous glint in her eyes.
“I love that spirit sis…”
“Magnus would never know what hit him..”
“Yes and…” Naya was interrupted by a knock at the door as both sisters froze staring at each other with puzzled expressions. They were not expecting anyone.
