Carnivals: Claimed By The Deranged Alpha Prince [BL]-Chapter 335: mind your own business

Kim’s pov

"Are you okay?"

The sound of those words caught me off guard that as soon as I whirled around, I backed up at the same time and ended up tripping. But Roy reached out and caught me my the waist, making my heart instantly fly into my throat as he tugged me up. I shoved away from him in the next moment, bristling and spluttering to cover how hard my heart was racing and how my face was threatening to grow red.

"Please keep your hands to yourself!" I snapped our, watching as Roy only sighed before shoving his hands into his pockets. I refuse to stare at him hard, lest I start drooling over how good he looked. Since he returned from where ever he went, it was like he grew more good looking over night.

"I was only saving you from falling. You should be thanking me instead." He stated but I glared at him, feeling beyond irritated because even though I want to scratch his eyes out right now, I also felt the pressing urge to sink into his arms and let him hold ms close because his hands had felt so perfect around my waist a few minutes ago.

"What are you doing here? Stalking me?" I questioned, eying him with a flat expression on. Roy sighed slowly before shaking his head, and when he stepped forward, my heartbeat accelerated.

"Actually, I saw you coming here and thought you appeared a little down." He stated and mortification engulfed me because I had been thinking I was doing a great job at hiding how heartbroken I had been feeling. But of course the same person who made me heartbroken is the same person who saw through my act. I instantly felt self conscious and squared my chin in the next moment.

"I don’t know what you’re talking about. As you can see, I’m fine. You can go be with your boyfriend now." I snapped, wishing he’d go away right now before I do something stupid like burst into tears.

A pinched expression appeared across his face and he stepped forward but I gave him a sharp glare and he ended up deciding against that.

My phone vibrated in my pocket and when I whipped it out, I realized it was a text from Xander reminding me to shoot him a text of my response tonight. I was grinning when I shoved my phone back into a pocket and Roy searched my face closely, like he was trying to read me.

"Who’s that?" He asked and I scoffed.

"I don’t see how that’s any of your business." I informed him and he dragged a hand over his face, appearing annoyed.

"Who were you talking to when I got here?" I demanded and I bristled, folding my arms as I regarded him.

"Why are you suddenly interested in what I do? Last I remember, we’re back to being strangers. No?" I reminded bin and he pursed his lips for a moment before exhaling slowly.

"Kim, look, the thing is..." he began but I shook my head and let a hand up.

"No, whether you wanna say, it’s mot needed. Because I don’t care. You want us to be strangers, that’s what we’ll be." I tell him before starting to walk past him, but I ended up stopping beside him.

"And if you must know, I was speaking to Xander when you arrived. He’s... still interested in me and I’m inviting him over because we’re gonna be rekindling things." I breathed out but before I could take two steps, a firm grip clamped on my wrist, tugging me so hard that I almost lost my footing as I slammed right into a very hard chest. Roy’s scent filled up my lungs in the very next moment.

"Tell him to not come any longer. Cancel the invite." He bit out lowly, teeth clenched and eyes blazing with restrained anger.

For a moment, a shiver rolled down my spine at the possessiveness in his voice, but that was before i remembered what was happening, and then I hurriedly shoved away from him and glared at him.

"Stop doing that, please." I grounded out, trying to calm my racing heartbeat but Roy only stepped forward, clogging my lungs with his scent that was quickly filling up the empty spaces in my head.

"Do it. Text him and ask him to fuck off." He demanded again and I shook my head to clear it off his scent before glaring up at him.

"What’s it to you? And why the fuck would I do that? I don’t answer to you, remember?" I snapped before shoving at his chest and he thankfully stepped back, making me able to breathe properly once again.

I expected him to apologize to me or to walk away, but he asked me if I was gonna do as told and I bristled, asking him to go fuck himself because he has a boy friend and yet he was acting like he cared about anything I do, when he clearly doesn’t.

I stormed away after that, and he didn’t stop me.

Dinner that night gave me a headache and I was too moody to attempt putting on a bubbly act. San was carrying the entire conversation tonight without any problem. If anything, he seemed to have more things to talk about. And the thing is that I want to hate him. I badly want to. But he was so nice and polite and all genuine smiles at me, that I couldn’t bring myself to hate him. And that made me extremely irritated.

Tonight, he and Roy wore matching outfit, and that was giving me a completely different headache. They looked so cute together if I was being honest. Was someone like San Roy’s type this whole time? A sweet, gentle and polite omega?

I rolled my eyes in irritation right as my headache intensified, and then I got to my feet and excused myself. I didn’t realize I haven’t touched my dinner or drink till San pointed that out, asking if I was okay. When I said I was a little sick, he got so worried about me that I even felt a little endeared.

But then he suggested Roy walk me to my room and I wanted to grounds to open up and swallow me at once.
