Schemes

To the northernmost part of the Golden State, was where the royal families resided. This includes Sienna and her family. They lived in a luxurious palace that was second only to the Alpha king.

The sound of breaking glass filled the air in one of the rooms on the topmost floor. Edward and Maria looked at each other, shaking their heads. How long was this going to happen?

Sienna has been vandalizing things since she returned from the King's Manor. She had given her parents the cold shoulder as she broke anything breakable in the house. From one room to another.

The king didn't mind replacing the broken items. He had enough money to last his descendants a lifetime. What worried him more was his daughter's behavior!

They were left perplexed from the minute she returned. It didn't need the genius to deduce that something happened to her. The golden question, however, was what had happened to her?

Inside the room, Sienna looked calm at first glance but each time she broke something, her eyes would be filled up with rage. After breaking the last item, she sat in the midst, looking into space.

Her gaze was blank. She sat in that position for a while in deep thoughts, thinking of ways to hurt that girl. Yes, Kai's words had gotten to her. He had outright called her ugly. Who does that?

As though it wasn't enough, he had looked at her naked frame with contempt and disgust in his gaze. She closed her eyes and rubbed gently on her elbow.

He had hurt her. Kai neither hesitated nor restrained himself when he threw her to the wall as a protective stance. She stood up, eyes wide open. Sienna wasn't ready to accept defeat. She has wasted over ten years of her life lurking around him, hoping that he would notice her.

There was no way that she would let a nobody have him. Especially since they Said nobody was better looking and younger. This was her ultimate Achilles heels.

She heard the sound of the lock turning. That must be her mother. Maybe she didn't need to deal with this on her own. Maybe she should ask for help from her parents. They have lived longer hence should be wiser. She sat back down again.

Maria walked inside the room and carefully stepped around the broken shards. She sat on the bed that looked safest and patted her daughter's head.

" Daughter, are you okay? Speak to your mother? Share your troubles. That's why you have parents. We want to share in your burdens."

Sienna let out a heavy sigh. After a brief hesitation, she started narrating what had happened to her a few days ago. The more she heard, the angrier the mother felt. No one was allowed to treat their daughter in that manner. Not even the so-called Alpha king. She clenched her fist as she let her daughter finish her tale.

Once she was done, she remained silent for a while that Sienna thought she fell asleep. When she turned her head to look, she found her mother deep in thoughts. Sienna smiled as she laid her head on her mother's thigh. Her mother schemed her way into her father's life after all.

She was a pro schemer. No wonder her father is so hooked on her. She should have consulted her earlier. " Daughter, what exactly do you want to do?" Maria had two plans in her head. Her daughter's words would determine which plan she would execute.

" Mother, despite how he treats me, I am crazy for him. All these years, I just wanted to use him. Yet, I found myself falling for him somehow. Now, I just want him to apologize to me and get rid of that girl. As for that little bitch, I want to tie her up and torture her for days on end until she breathes her last."

Maria smirked. As she had thought.

" Very well. This is what you are going to do..." The mother and daughter discussed their plans until the sunset. By the time the two separated, Sienna was smiling.

It was the perfect plan to get her out of her hair. Her mother was a genius. She thanked her and meandered out of the room. She ran back into her room to freshen up. She has been wallowing in sorrow and anger these past few days that she forgot to take care of herself.

She would stay away from them and let others do the dirty job. Sienna sent two long texts to two different contacts on her phone and walked into her bathroom to wash up.

She could always vent her anger by vandalizing things, yet, it was always other rooms that suffered that fate. Her room was intact. As good as new. She blasted the music system and went in to enjoy a long bath in the tub.

' little popper, have fun for now. I shall come for you when you least expected it. As for you my love, once you are mine, I shall make you compensate me for all the emotional damage.' Sienna laughed at her thoughts as all sort of imaginations flashed through her mind.'

At the manor, Lila packed the food that she prepared into a picnic basket. She then prepared all the utensils and cutleries that would be needed once they were outside. Once everything was ready, she went to notify Kai.

She stopped in her steps when she saw his looks. He had changed out of his initial clothes. With the three top buttons of his shirt open, she could see his well-toned chest.

This wasn't the first time she saw a man's chest. Yet, it was the first time her heart reacted to it. She turned her eyes away in reflex but it was already too late. He had seen her.

Kai whose goal was achieved pretended to have only noticed her now. " Hey, angel, where are you going? Is everything ready? I am famished."

She turned around and nodded.

" Cool. Maybe you should go back and change out of those clothes. No offense little girl, you look delicious in anything, but I would like to see you in a dress tonight. Can you wear one for me?"

Lila looked at him and herself. She was wearing a black strapless top and black cotton tight pants. All the clothes that Ian got for her were a shirt, pants, shirts, and vests. All in black, as she had requested.

Hearing Kai's words, she looked at him with a questioning gaze. Kai laughed. " Angel, everything is wrong with your current choice of cloth. It's almost nighttime. We are going out on a picnic, to eat under the open skies. Don't you think your cloth is inappropriate for such a romantic vibe?"

Lila understood. She flushed in embarrassment remembering that she had never worn a dress for as long as she could remember. The last dress she wore was on the day her parents were killed. Her little princess dress was stained in blood traumatizing her for a very long time.

She vowed to never wear white again. Her wardrobe took a drastic change. She began wearing black from Monday to Monday. Her dress got replaced with pants and shorts. " I don't have any dress. I am not planning to wear one too."

Kai looked at her intently. He knew as much and had already prepared three dresses for her. A white short dress, a black maxi dress with a slit to the side, and a purple princess dress.

He walked towards her. She was shorter than his towering height. Just the perfect size for him to hold into his embrace.

" Angel, I don't want to force you to do something you don't want to. Just for today, can you at least try those dresses on for me? I promise, If you don't like them, you can remove them."

He was too close. His intoxicating scent flooded her senses. Such were times when she both despised and wanted to have a taste of him. She was unsure what to feel for the guy.

Unfortunately for her, he affected her more than she let on. The pitiful gaze he was giving her was so foreign in those golden orbs, yet, she found herself bending her will for them.

' uuugh. You are not supposed to get weak at his glance. What are you doing? ' she scolded herself internally. Even so, she took the dresses and walked into the kitchen to change.

Yes, she felt too lazy to move across the entire ground just to change into a dress. She gave the white dress one look and threw it away. Between purple and black, she went with the most familiar color.

The black dress hugged her figure, accentuating all the curves that were hidden by her baggy pants on most occasions. She walked out and had the sudden urge to let her hair down.

Kai's eyes widened upon seeing her. She looked breathtaking in a dress. If he had known earlier, he would have bought her more. He made a mental note to go shopping with her one of these days.

The king walked prowled towards her and turned her around. He pulled her back firmly against his chest and whispered into her ears." Angel, I suddenly want to take you right here and now, until you can't move. We would use all the techniques that are known and create new ones too. I want to make your lies real. Would you let me?"

She elbowed him in embarrassment. At the time, it had been fun to poke needles into the princess. She had forgotten about the incident and thought that he had too. Who would have known that he would use it against her?

He held her by the waist and placed a soft kiss on her ear. " Ssshhh baby. I promise I have long-lasting stamina. Whenever you are ready, let me know. I will give you such a good time that you would faint from exhaustion." He was still teasing her.

Unfortunately, his teasing words came from the heart. His arousal was evident against her back. She could feel the rush of blood towards her face again. She was a virgin after all. Though she had seen all types of bodies, his affected her like no other.

She had met men whose look and the body were in the best of form and shape. She felt nothing looking at them. To her, she equated them to a block of wood that had no feeling whatsoever.

Kai was different. He made her yearn for the type of intimacy she never experienced before. She only hated him for it. The more he affected her, the more she disposed of him. Or so she told herself.

" Your highness, if you keep on teasing me, you will go on your own and I will change out of this dress. Think carefully about your next words." The chill in her voice turned him on even more.

'Dude, stop acting like a sexually deprived horny bastard and take care of her. I want to have some mate tone with her. ' kai heard his wolf scold in his head.

' Mmh. You self-righteous prick! Aren't you as horny as I am, If not more? Anyway, we shall revisit this conversation. Now, get out of my head.' The connection was cut short as Kai took in a deep breath to calm himself.

" Alright angel. Let me help you with your hair before we set off. "

He loosened her neat bun and removed the band. Thick luscious black hair fell past her shoulders and rested on her waist.

" Baby, you have beautiful hair. Ash, what am I saying? Everything about you is beautiful. Come on, change into those shoes first. Your canvas doesn't go well with the dress."

Lila never bothered with fashion or makeup. She preferred her toys to those things. Since Kai seems to be an expert, she listened to him and changed her shoes. When she looked up, she saw him holding a butterfly clip in his hand.

" One final touch baby and you are good to go." He placed the clip in place and bend low to leave a peck on her forehead. Kai retrieved his phone and stood beside her as she looked in the mirror. Using their reflections in the mirror, he took several pictures of them.

Who knows, the next time she will accept to wear a dress again? The two finally made their way out of the house using the least prominent route. Kai was excited. Dinner was going to be an interesting forte.
