Chapter 20
Arielyn
“How dare you?”
Jordan yelled as he sent a punch to Kendrix’s face but he dodged and threw another punch at Jordan who wasn’t so lucky and got hit, I couldn’t believe the scene that was unfolding before my eyes, one minute I was sitting in a car wondering where the hell I was, the next minute, Kendrix showed up and informed me where we were at and before I could process that, my worst nightmare showed up and now they were fighting, I froze for a moment not knowing what to do, they both look like they were about to kill each other, Ken’s usual blue eyes were now deep amber, they were both growling at each other and I realized things would get really messy if I don’t stop them, I got out of the car as fast as I could, I wasn’t about to let them kill themselves because of me in their father’s house, I already had a lot on my plate, the sons of the alpha king fighting because of me should not be added to the mix.
“You guys, that’s enough.”
I yelled and tried to push them apart, big mistake because I got tossed aside and they didn’t even stop, I got up and tried stopping them again, I soon learned that having two huge dudes fighting and trying to stop them with my small frame was impossible, I looked around for anyone who can stop them because Ken was about to kill his brother, I ran out of the parking lot and found two guards.
“Guys, please help, they are going to kill each other,”
I yelled pointing in the direction where both men were still going at each other, Jordan was losing so bad and I didn’t even feel bad for him, I just didn’t want to be in the middle of their fight, trust me, if this wasn’t about me, I would have brought some popcorn and watch Jordan get the beating he deserved, the guards ran towards the two of them and put a stop to their fight, Jordan was bleeding, Ken on the other hand still looked pissed and ready to fight, he was mostly untouched, Jordan was yelling curses at him and I really wanted to go punch him too, the man was such a loser.
“Fuck you,”
Jordan yelled at Ken when it was clear that the guards holding them were unwilling to let them go so that they can keep fighting, I looked around hoping that the king won’t come here, I didn’t want to be seen by him, it will get to my father and I would probably be out of Owhen within the next hour, I couldn’t let that happen, Rose would never forgive me if it does.
“Can we leave now?”
I asked Ken who was still having an angry stare contest with Jordan, he finally looked my way and his expression changed to one of regret, I walked back to the car and thankfully he did too, he wordlessly started the car and drove out of the place, funny how I left Winrose house for a walk and some alone time and ended up in the king’s palace.Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
“I am sorry about what happened back there,”
Kendrix said when we came to a stop before traffic, I glanced his way.
“You shouldn’t have fought because of what he said, what if your dad had come out and saw you two fighting? What would you have told him that caused your fight?”
I asked. I could picture the king glaring at me and cursing at me for causing a reef between his sons, it would have gotten to Dad and that would have been more trouble for me.
”I couldn’t seat and watch him run his mouth like that, he had it coming and I would have done more if they didn’t stop us,”
He replied unapologetically.
“Ken thank you for looking out for me but you didn’t have to fight your brother because of me, trust me when I say I am not bothered by what he says or what he will keep saying, you don’t have to make an enemy out of your relative because of me, we barely just met and you don’t even know anything about me,”
I said out loud, even though I hated Jordan and everything he stood for, I didn’t want to be the reason they became enemies. I felt guilty for causing their fight. If I had not been in Kendrix’s car, if he had not seen me, then they wouldn’t have fought.
“You think the reason he and I fought is because of you? It is not, you don’t have to feel guilty, we were never friends or close, we may have lived in the same house growing up but we never saw each other as brothers, trust me, this isn’t our first fight and it will certainly not be the last not with what our father has planned out for us,”
Kendrix informed me, I felt less guilty knowing the fight had not been about me but I also wanted to know why they had fought in the first place, if it is not because of what Jordan had said in my presence then it might be something bigger, I was damn sure even if I ask he wasn’t going to tell me so I just shut up and gave him directions to Winrose”s house.
“Can I have your phone,”
He asked when we arrived at Rose’s house, I stared at him wondering what he needed my phone for.
