Chapter 8 - Round Two
Gracia POV Bozhena walked up to me. "Ready for round two?"
"So, what do you think Prince Justus is going to do when he finds out how much of a whore you've been? Do you really think he's going to want you after that?" She laughs like a maniac then opens the cell door and steps aside. A guard walks in and grabs me to throw me down on the ground.
Even though wolves have extreme healing power the silver and the wolfsbane has hampered my healing process and my back is still badly hurt and when I land on my back I let out a loud scream. But I'm not going down without a fight. When the guard is attempting to pull his trousers down while he's on top of me I knee him right in the balls and then I kick him in the face. I hear the sound of bone cracking and I know I broke his nose. I decide for good measure I should kick him in the side of his face too and I hear another bone cracking and I know I got his jaw too. Then I run for the open door to my cell only to be met by a large club to my stomach. The guard hits me so hard that I almost spin over the club but I don't and land back on my ass. He grabs me by my hair and drags me back into my cell. He's standing over me straddling me while he pulls his trousers down and frees his manhood. I try kicking him but he just uses that to spread my legs further apart. He has his member aligned with my hole. I sit up and punch him in his face as hard as I can so he slaps me and grabs both of my wrists and holds them above my head. Justus POV
My mind is going crazy thinking of Gracia in a prison not knowing what is happening to her. I mindlink Emil, Mack, and Jankin to meet me at our meeting spot.
"Look Bozhena has gone off the ledge. She has imprisoned Chef Hann, for reasons why I don't know, and Gracia at the Grendel Dungeon. We need to get there as soon as possible. I don't know if the guards there will bend to my authority or not. She has either paid them off or they have turned against the crown for other reasons. Will you go with me to free Chef Hann and Gracia?" I already know the answer but I have to ask anyway.
"Hell Yes! We got your back!" They all three said in unison. I love these guys.
"Alright when we get there I'm going for Gracia. You guys go for Chef Hann." I lay out the plan.
We switch into our wolf forms carrying our clothes in bags in our mouths. We run as fast as we can to the dungeon. As we are nearing the dungeon we hear a loud scream. I started running faster than I knew I could. As we near the dungeon I shift mid air dropping the bag of clothes not caring that I'm naked. I yank open the doors and run down the stairs. The first guard I see I don't even waste time to see if he'll submit to me or not. My claws come out and I rip out his throat. To my right in the first cell I come across is Gracia with a guard straddling her ready to rape her. While another guard was standing on his feet yelling curse words at her saying he was going to fuck her in the ass. I run inside the cell and rip off the head of the man that's raping her and then turn to rip out the other man's throat.
When I see that Gracia was whipped I tenderly pick her up in my arms trying to be as gentle as I can. They guys come around the corner with Chef Hann who has been whipped as well. "Is Bozhena here? Are any of the guards alive?" "I haven't seen Bozhena. None of the guards survived. They all attacked us and the one that didn't killed himself. But we did find Mr Taker and he's been whipped the same as the other two." Emil responded, shaking his head. "Alright, we need to get these guys back to the castle and to the infirmary. Chef Hann can you walk?" I ask as I'm concerned about his back.
"I can walk. No worries, your highness. Just take care of Miss Feisty. She really put up one hell of a fight when those guards came into her cell. She was determined to not go down without a fight." I could hear the pride he spoke with when talking about her.
"Mr Taker Can you walk?" I ask to make sure his injuries aren't too bad especially since he's an older man.
"No, I'm okay. Just looking forward to getting home to my sweetheart." He replied smiling..
'So Chef Hann, why were you imprisoned?" I couldn't understand why he was a threat.
"I was eavesdropping on Bozhena talking about getting Gracia locked up and she caught me. But before I could send word to Prince Justus she had me thrown in the dungeon." He said ashamedly. "What about you Mr Taker? What happened to you?" I ask, wanting to know the whole story.
"Two guards pushed their way in and knocked my Eda to the ground. They grabbed Gracia while Cecily was screaming and trying to hold onto her leg. One of the guards kicked Cecily in the face to get her off of Gracia. That's when she started really struggling against their hold on her, kicking, punching, anything she could think of but they wouldn't let her go. Finally one of them punched me in the face and knocked her out. I tried fighting off the guards and tried taking her back from them. They had two in the cottage that were riding horses and then two more that were riding on top of the carriage that they threw her into so it was kind of a losing battle from the beginning. I didn't have a chance but I couldn't help myself. They beat me up pretty bad. The first few hours that I was in the dungeon I did nothing but cough up blood and that was before I got whipped." It was a hell of a story to recount. But I would do it all over for Gracia.
When we get to the infirmary I quickly find Doctor Gomes. "Doctor I have three people that need medical attention right now and this one in my arms should be in the royal room."
"Of course your majesty. I have rooms ready to accommodate." He leads us through the hallways and makes sure that we each have a room.
"Emil, Mack, and Jakin, can one of you guys stay with Chef Hann and another one stay with Mr Taker just to make sure nobody messes with them." I'm concerned that the minute I turn my back they'll be whisked away back to the dungeons. I take my mate to the royal room and lay her down.
"What are we looking at?" Doctor Gomes asks.
"Attempted rape, some bruising on her face due to fighting, and being whipped on her back. It looks like they used a silver whip." I tell the doctor so he can start his examination.Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
"They used a silver whip dipped in wolfsbane. They whipped me from the top of my back all the way down to the bottom of my legs." It's the first words that she's spoken since I picked her up from the cell.
"So the wolfsbane explains why you're healing so slow. This will definitely leave scars. Normally for a human patient we would sew the cuts closed but that is often very painful and you have so many cuts. Sewing some of the larger and deeper cuts may lessen the appearance of scarring. It's up to you." The doctor responds.

"In that case one thing we can do is Justus if you would slice open a cut on your hand and let a couple drops of your blood fall into Gracia's mouth. Your blood, being an alpha's blood, will help her to heal faster." The doctor smiles encouragingly. Without thinking twice I jump up and use one of my claws to cut open my palm and I let a few drops of my blood fall into Gracia's mouth until the doctor says that's enough. I kiss the top of her head and then I sit back down next to her cot.
When suddenly a personal assistant to my father walks in. "Prince Justus, your presence is required by your father and mother in your father's office."
"We need to discuss something with you." My father said sternly.
"Well, make it quick because I need to get back to the infirmary with my mate." I felt like tapping my foot on the floor but that would be rude.
"Yeah, about that. If you continue to go that route and follow after her I can't in good conscience give you the crown. Your coronation is in four days. I'll give you two to think it over." My father says sternly.
My blood is boiling right now. "I can't do this with you right now." I walk out of the office unsure if I'll ever return.
