The Alpha King’s Hated Slave Chapter 257

Vetta’s steps faltered. Silence descended.

Then, she turned and faced him.

The venom on her face DID make him cringe this time around.

“You despicable sneaky monster.” She hissed, “it’s always about threats is that it? Always threats. Blackmail. Always.”

He shrugged, unperturbed. “It does the work better than anything else. Mostly because you know that I am a man of my words.”

“While other men’s words are gold, your own word is aluminum.” She crossed her arms, “I will still work out of this door, and let me tell you what will happen. I will go to the King and I will tell him everything. The rat he thinks is dead is not dead. Instead, he’s in a dirty cave craving power.”

“Poor Vetta. You are so so so pathetic. I heard he gave his love to another? After all the sacrificing and everything you did for him, what did you get?”

He was grinning, “He threw you away like discarded clothes while his heart longs after your sworn enemy. King Cone told you didn’t he? Bet he will be rolling in laughter in his grave. Tsk tsk tsk, pathetic.”

Her steps faltered. Pain filled her, her chest felt like it will suffocate. She balled her hands into fists so tight.

“Why do you keep protecting a man like that, pet? He does not care what happens to you, you know. Why not work for me? I will give you that power you crave so much. At least, if you can’t have the man you want more than anything in the world, you can have power.” He came up behind her, “In that way, you will not loose from all rounds. That will be very unfair to you, pet. I want to help you.”

Vetta went so quiet for so long, Coza began feeling victory in his grasp.

Then, she turned and faced him. Rage masked her always expressive face, along with tears swimming in her eyes.

“Mark my words today, Coza. You will die by my hands.” she vowed. “I will kill you by my own hands.”

The amuseness disappeared from his face. Apart from the whóre Vetta, he knows the murderer Vetta really well. “I am offering you a salvation here. You wouldn’t.”

She let out an empty laugh, a year slipping from her eyes. “If you truly think I will not, then you do not know me at all, Monster.”

“What if I kill you. Here and now?”

She raised her chin. “Since when do you think I fear death? You of all people can remember how many times I pleaded with you and your monster King to kill me! Get lost, Coza, your threats on my life do not work on me. Never did, never will.” She turned towards the entrance.

“Not even the King finding out you killed his brother?”

“You, your monster King, and this bitch here killed Declan. Since she’s working for you, I do not need to think hard to know that she is the hooded figure that slashed Declan with a sword.”

“And you delivered the final blow that killed him. Do not think I joke, Vetta. I will make sure Lucien finds out about it. It is a better death for you than anyone you will die by my hands.”

Her steps faltered. Another tear dropped from her eyes.

He walked closer to her from behind. “Can you imagine his reaction? What he will do? A woman he cares about is the one that took the life of the man he protected with his life.

Silence. Tensed silence.

“Did I tell you that I will kill you, Coza?”

“You said it before.”

She nodded. “I will kill you anyway. And I don’t care what you do, I’m still out.” She took three more steps to the door.

Coza threw in the last card up his sleeve. His ultimate card.

“How about Killing Danika?” He g*****d.

Vetta stopped. Completely.

She turned from the entrance of the cave and walked towards Coza.

Slowly. Steadily. “Do you know that I hate you more than I will ever hate Danika?”

He shrugged. “But you still hate her anyway. Don’t tell me you haven’t fantasized about Killing her. Now, I’m giving you a chance to cleanly wipe her off the surface of the earth without anybody tracing her death to you. She is all that stands between you and the King.”

Vetta cocked her head to the side and regarded him. “She is heavily pregnant for him. I know how much he wants that child.”

“He is a healthy man, he can always birth one with you.” He observed her reaction to know if she has an idea that there’s a chance that the King is a sterile King.

Vetta was thinking about herself being a barren womàn. But, she wouldn’t mind another woman birthing the King’s child if he belongs to her. “You’re right. He can always birth another.”

Coza smiled inwardly. She has no idea. This is his opportunity.

He will use her to eliminate Lucien’s succession so that when he kills Lucien, there will be no one in his way. It’s also a ‘killing two birds with one stone’ because Mombana’s throne will be empty too.

The day was suddenly looking too bright to him. “So, you’re in?”

“To kill that monster’s daughter.” She stated, “But, let us get a few things straight, Coza. I will still kill you anyway, and If I perceive that you plan to harm so much as a hair on King Lucien’s head, I will make sure you die the most horrible death ever. Mark my words.”

“Deal.” He flashed teeth, “Let it be done soon. When will you be able to do it?”
