The Royal Mask

Chapter 44

I'm finally back after a long time...thanks for waiting. 
Here's a preview of the last chapter.

************

Surprisingly Dominic steps back pissed off and runs off into the forrest.

"Follow him..." Nate grunts and few warriors follow him in their wolf forms.

I step towards Nate and when he shoots my wolf a glare, my wolf whines lowly.

I'm sure I'm going to get an earful after we go back home for coming out here with the warriors.

"Ophelia...why did y..you come here..." he mutters before collapsing on the ground.

Oh moon goddess!

"Let me see him..." I growl and Dylan pushes me away from the door.

"Luna, it's his highness orders. He doesn't want you inside while the pack doctor is stitching him up." Dylan grimaces and I scoff crossing my arms.

"Oh goddess I'm not going to throw up after seeing all that blood unlike you or cry hysterically like Jen!" I say pointing to Jen who is sniffing in a corner. She is sitting besides Tom as his one arm is placed in a cast, he had fractured his wrist in the fight and his other arm is wrapped along Jen's waist. He places a kiss on her temple trying to calm her down and I smile despite my mind being in a state of chaos while Dan watches them with a frown on his face. Seems like this is a suprise for him. Since our not so nice conversation he has been avoiding me like a plaque. Well he should because I would surely kick him out if he says how Nate doesn't deserve to be my mate!

Dan must have felt my burning stare because he suddenly turns and our eyes meet. His gaze lowers slowly from my face to my legs...maybe he is sorry for behaving so childishly but why is his eyes so darkened?

"I think his highness is going to be pissed off if he sees at what you're wearing right now..." Dylan whispers.

I look down realising that I'm still holding the blanket which was given to me by Gloria when I had changed back into human form.

"Gosh I must be looking like a lunatic." I frown tugging the blanket closer.

"I don't think so..." Dylan mutters as he glares pointedly in Dan's direction.

"What if he needs me..." I say ignoring their glaring contest.

Dylan sighs, "Calm down, Opphy! Even Rosalie is inside using her voodoo powers so that he heals faster and you are forgetting he is a lycan prince."

"But..." I stop speaking when Alpha king walks out of the pack doctor's room with a grim face.

"You should all return to your rooms and have some rest..."he says with a tired voice and we all obey silently.

Sighing I go to my room and shower scrubbing all the dirt off me, trying my best to put away the flashbacks of the ugly fight.

I can still remember how Dominic's lycan looked.
Crazed, bloodshot eyes and all rogue!

After changing into some black shorts and baby blue sweater, not bothering to dry my hair I rush towards the pack doctor's room. The hallway is empty and as I step closer towards the door I hear alpha king and Nate conversing or rather yelling at each other.
Should I intervene or let them be?
