Prince Caelan

30. Excused

Caelan POV

"YOU HAD NO RIGHT!" Lucius growls out in Christophe's face.

I growl out, having heard enough of this, I storm over as my father pulls Lucius off from Christophe, the room is tense and the only sound I hear is my mate's silent sobs from the seat she still sits in, outside of the room.

I snarl into Lucius's face as he frowns at me. "You fucking piece of shit! Get out, you are no longer welcome here." I say deadly as I stare into his blue orbs as they stare back at me in confusion.

Lucius growls out. "You do not understand, boy! You think I wanted her to find out like this?" 

I laugh at 'boy' and shake my head as I lean into his face, my wolf Rion threatening to come out and slice his throat clean open and watch him bleed out. "I think you have outstayed your welcome, leave before I make you." I tell him with authority in my tone as he looks past me.

Acela walks into the room and comes to my stand, standing beside me with a tear-soaked face. "You weren't going to tell me were you?" My mate asks Lucius sadly, it breaks my heart how sad she is.

Her whole family is nothing but a bunch of liars and deceivers, they don't deserve her. I knew the moment I saw him at the hotel as Acela was coming from the hotel, I could tell he was hiding something from the way he was looking at her, guilt was all I could see on his face.

Lucius sighs and runs his fingers through his hair. "Acela- shit, your mothe-"

I can sense Acela's sudden rush of emotion, she moved fast and I almost missed it as her fist collides with Lucius's face and the smell of Lycan blood filled the air. She punches him in the nose, causing it to bleed and make a slight noise upon impact. 

"Fuck you! I am done with you both, leave and never come back here!" Acela yells, glaring at Lucius as he holds his bloody and broken nose.

The amount of pride I feel right now for my mate is hunormous, I am so fucking proud of her, she doesn't deserve to be lied to like this, she did what anyone would've done in her situation.

I feel guilty for lying to Acela, it will haunt me forever, I thought I was doing the right thing, just like Lucius and Brianna, but the longer the lie goes on, the more hurt you are going to cause, if I know Acela well, I know she will not forgive them for a very long time for this.

Lucius looks broken as he stares at Acela. Acela turns and leaves, not sparing anyone else but me a glance before she turns and leaves around the corner, I look to Lucius and see the shock in his face as everyone in the room is silent at what just happened.

I snarl at Lucius as I grab his shirt, making him glare at me. "If you ever come back here, I will personally go out of my way to kill you, never contact her again, you are done knowing your 'daughter' Lucius." I spit out in hatred as my eyes flash red, my wolf close to coming out at how angry we both are.

I shove him away from me, causing him to collide with the wall, the action made a dent in the wall, turning to find my mate, I see my father nod his head, telling me I did the right thing, I can't let him anywhere near her again, I just got my girl happy and now this shit, she deserves some peace in her life, her piece of shit mother will get nothing from my girl, she deserves to live with her guilt from what I read on that piece of paper.

I make my way to my bedroom, following the scent of my mate I make it there as fast as I can without breaking a sweat.

Opening the door to my room I see my mate leaning over the edge of the balcony, overlooking The Vale. I shut the door and walk over to my mate, I wrap my arms around her waist and take in her scent, calming me and my wolf from the rage I feel inside.
