Chapitre 27: Emilia's Anger

They return to the mansion and walk straight into Dimitri's office. The moment Dimitri sees Emilia, his face lights up brightly. Then he notices the two males with her and his face sours. At this point both Dietrich and Winston are sweating from nerves. Although Winston feels that his predicament is more severe than that of Dietrich's, he is terribly mistaken. Dietrich knows how protective Dimitri is of his children and to add the icing to the cake, Emilia has proven to be unpredictable when she's angered. Things are not looking good for either of the men.

"Hello Emilia, I'm assuming that these men have wronged you in some way?" Dimitri hits the bull's-eye. "You can't just assu-.." Winston starts but Emilia's glare from the other side of the room causes him to stop midway. "What was that? Who are you? Did I say you could speak? I don't believe I did." Dimitri growls with authority, making Winston cower down. Winston may be an alpha but Dimitri is a king and therefore holds the highest power between the two.

"Father, this is Winston Snow from the Snow Pack located in the Northern Kingdom. He's come here to seek training after hearing of our pack's achievements. In fact, he specifically requested to be trained under Isaac." Emilia says with a sly grin. "Is that so? Alright then, I grant my permission for this training so long as your Prince agrees to it." Dimitri says, clearly missing Emilia's scheming.

Dietrich nods his permission, keeping his eyes trained on Emilia's face to watch if her expression changes. To his dismay, Emilia meets his gaze and gives him a bone chilling smile. If looks could kill, he would be dead ten… no, a hundred times over.

"Dad, there was one other thing I wanted to discuss with you." Emilia says with a voice filled with fake innocence. "Oh? Go ahead darling, anything you want. Shall I have the men leave first?" Dimitri asks. Emilia shakes her, "That won't be necessary. It's just… theoretically let's say that one of these men used me as a tool to anger the other. What would you do?" She asks with a smirk. Dietrich's eyes widened in shock, darting back and forth between the father and daughter.

Dimitri's face contorts with intense anger. "WHO DARED TO DO SUCH A THING TO YOU?!" He shouts and stands up from his seat. Dietrich panics and sends a silent plea to Emilia for mercy. "Nobody, I was just curious what would happen if someone did." Emilia says in a calming tone. "I see… Well it ultimately depends on you dear. If you are offended then we could go as far as to kill a. If you don't care about it then we would settle for castration." Dimitri says nonchalantly. Emilia smiles, "I see. Thank you for that. I'll see you later tonight for lunch, okay?"

Emilia and the boys leave the office together. She skips happily while both men trudge forward with faces that would make a bystander think they had just had their balls crushed with high heels. Emilia sees Isaac and snickers as she runs over to talk to him.

"Brother!" She shouts gleefully. Winston hisses quietly in annoyance. "Hey sis, what's going on? You seem pretty cheerful today, was the mall that fun?" Isaac asks with an amused chuckle. "I suppose you could say I enjoyed myself. But that's not what's important right now! This guy is Winston, you'll be training him starting today. He said he wants to see just how strong a Rose prince could possibly be." Emilia laughs menacingly. "You don't say? Perfect timing, I was looking for a new sparring partner after the last one got sent to the hospital." Isaac says bashfully.

Winston gulps as he listens to the exchange. He's never been very good at fighting, mostly because he had very little experience. In fact, most of the Snow children were so busy looking after Emilia that they didn't have much time for training. Isaac motions for Winston to follow him.

Dietrich watches the two men leave and then looks over to Emilia. "Hey, you know I really didn't mean for it to turn out like that, right? I would never go to such lengths… I mean, I really didn't think… " He starts but realizes that he's making it worse again. "Hey Dietrich, shut up already. Unlike you, I'm not into voyeurism or anything of the like. And you know, I'm not even that mad about it." She replies with a fake smile. Dietrich sighs, "Em come on… will you let me explain please?" But Emilia rolls her eyes and starts walking away.

He follows her up to her room without a second thought. Emilia slams the door in Dietrich's face and locks him out. He stares at the door and a small whine escapes his lips. Dread and fear start to settle in as he replays everything in his mind. His actions are more than enough to justify a rejection from her.

"Emilia, please…" He whimpers, throwing aside all of his pride for the possibility of forgiveness. "Emilia, don't do this please… I need you. I'm really sorry for doing that, I wasn't thinking straight and I realize there are no excuses that can possibly justify what I've done but please… Give me another chance." He begs and pleads.

Emilia stays silent from her side of the door. She bites her nails while pondering what course of action to take from here. Does she give in now or does she torture him a bit more to teach him a lesson? If she forgives Dietrich this soon then won't he think he can use her as much as he wants as long as he apologizes? But if she drags it out too long then he might give up on her entirely… What's the correct choice here?

Emilia opens the door to talk to him but Dietrich is nowhere to be seen. Was it too late? Did he already give up and move on? Why is she so concerned about this in the first place? She is the one who told herself that she isn't going to care about the mate bond.

Emilia heaves a sigh and slaps herself in the face. "That's right. We aren't even together in any way so why does any of this matter? He wants to use me, then I'll just use him back." She says with fresh resolve as she heads outside.

She sees Winston and her eyes light up with fury and hatred. She conceals her contempt as she approaches him and smiles kindly. "Hey Win, wanna spar?" She asks, catching Dietrich's approaching figure in the distance. "Hey sis, I thought I was supposed to be training this guy." Isaac complains. "Oh come on, let me spar with him. Then you can see where both of us need improvement." She offers. Isaac nods in approval and steps back.

Winston gives Emilia a curious expression but moves into a fighting stance. "Start!" Isaac shouts. His shout catches the attention of all those in the area, including Dietrich who stares at Emilia with confusion. He knows that she's planning something, no doubt something to punish someone… But who is she trying to punish right now, him or Winston?
