Sold as the Alpha King’s Breeder

Chapter 110: This Can't Be Happening

*Theo*

I glared icily at Ciana and Sophia. They cowered before me and I smirked as I started to remove my gloves.

At the last minute, I caught Ciana's eye. She was afraid of me for a moment, but I chuckled lightly again and I could tell she understood. She gave a slight nod.

I rounded on my father and jumped at him.

"What is this!?" Sebastian snarled. He glared at me, then pointed at Sophia. "I told you to kill that witch!"

"I'm not going to do that, Father," I snarled, holding my hands out toward him.

"You filthy little witch! How dare you lie to me and go against my orders?" Sebastian roared, pointing at Sophia. He backed away as I stalked toward him.

I wasn't going to let him get away this time.

"You refused to help Warren. Why would I do anything to help you?" Sophia asked, her shrill voice breaking through the air. "You could have just been a decent father for once, then you might not be in this situation."

"You're all betrayers! That little witch betrayed her king. And you, Theo, betrayed your own father. I'll have you all executed for this!" he cried.

I noticed for the first time, my father had a flicker of fear in his eyes. He must have feared losing control, seeing all of us turning against him, even the people in his kingdom.

I shook my head, snarling. A tyrant could only hold so tightly before his victims started to fight against the squeezing pain.

"I'm not betraying my father. You are not my father because you never treated me like a son. Since I'm nothing more than a tool to you, I can disown you as my father and feel no remorse in what I'm about to do," I informed him coldly.

I raised my arms up, showing off my bare, uncovered hands. Smirking, I reached for my father.

Sebastian growled and turned on his heel. He ran fast.

As helpful as Sophia's bandages and medicine were, I was still weak from my captivity. Growling, I jumped into action, chasing my father away from the altar. I couldn't let him get away again!

I didn't care if he was still the king, I'd make sure no one dared shield him or protect him.

He probably was feeling cornered, no doubt. Unfortunately, cornered animals were always more dangerous. I needed to end this before he did anything crazy.

"Face me, coward!" I shouted.

"Who do you think you are to give me orders?" Sebastian growled back. He disappeared into the crowd and I heard a startled cry from within.

"No!" I gasped, recognizing the voice. I raced into the crowd after him. Everyone immediately parted for me with terror in their eyes as I launched myself forward.

My father turned back to me, a wild look on his face. He had his arms around a hostage. Sebastian glared at me, a hand aimed at her throat.

"Mother!" I stopped in my tracks.

"Don't come any closer," he snarled, spit flying from his mouth and landing on my mother's face.

She made a disgusted look and shrank back within his hold.
