Chapter 927: Chapter 112- Rika- Betrayed (VOLUME 5)
~~
Rika
~~
What was that? What was it that Clovio had just said to me? H..he lied to me? What did he lie to me about? What was going on here? What was all of this about?
“Cl..Clovio? What did you lie to me about? Your name? Is that all?” I wanted to end this on a good note. “Did you all grow up with the same last name in the orphanage and then just change them when you became adults? If that is all that it is, then that is nothing. Don’t scare me like that, Clovio.” I tried to laugh off what he was saying, and what I was saying as well, but something just didn’t feel right at all. Something told me that there was more to his betrayal than that.
“No Rika, he lied about more than that, didn’t you, Clovio? And you too Warrick. Do you want to tell my daughter and niece what you lied about, or should I?” Daddy was glaring at the two of them as he offered them the chance to come clean about their lies.
“Wh..why are you doing this?” Clovio looked so hurt as he responded to my dad. He looked like he was a victim in all of this. Wasn’t that the truth though? He hadn’t done anything wrong, had he?
.....
“Clovio?” I asked him, wanting to hear it from him.
“Go on and tell her, Clovio. Tell her what it is that you are really here for.” Uncle Dietrich growled at him. “And you too, Warrick. You sit there and pretend to be mated with my daughter and you can’t even be honest with her. What kind of man are you?” I had never seen Uncle Dietrich this angry in my entire life.
“Papa?” Lyssa looked at him like he was being unnecessarily cruel. “He is my mate, Papa. I can feel it. My soul tells me that he is the man that I am meant to be with. My heart and soul are in sync when I am with him. He is the only man for me, Papa. I know that he is my mate. There is nothing that you or Daddy can say to make me change my mind.”
“Alyssa?” Uncle Shawn looked so hurt by her words. It looked to me like he was about to cry for her, but Uncle Dietrich was in a different mood. He was angered by her words.
“ALYSSA!” He snapped at her. “How can you do this to me? Seriously? The moment that I leave town you go and form a mate bond with a fucking vampire hunter! And not just a vampire hunter. He and his family will kill anyone in the shadow world without prejudice.”
“A..a v..vam..vampire h..h..hunter?!” I stuttered the phrase out since it was such a shock to me.
“A..a what?!” Lyssa looked at Warrick with fear in her eyes. “A..are you really? H..have you killed people like me? A..are you a killer?” She was crying soundlessly as she asked him this. The tears streaming down her face as she looked at Warrick with eyes that were filled with pain.
“Lyssa, it’s not like that. I haven’t killed anyone, I swear that I haven’t.” Warrick sounded like he was freezing over with fear. His voice was trembling and his whole body looked like it was shaking.
“Cl..Clovio?” I called out to the man that was next to me and didn’t know what to think. Were my dad and Uncle Dietrich telling the truth? Were Clovio and Warrick hunters of some sort? Were they out to hurt my people?
That was when another thought hit me. My parents were gone all that time investigating. They were investigating murders. The murdered people were like us. They were wolves, felines, bears, vampires, witches, Fae, and whatever else that these people could find.
“O..oh mmy G..G..Goddess.” I rose to my feet and stepped away from Clovio. “Y..you’re part of it, aren’t you? Y..y..you’re part of that group that is.. that is.. that is killing our people. Y..y..you’re murderers.” I felt sick to my stomach. “Y..you killed those people in Europe. A..and now you want to kill people here. Y..you’re one of them, aren’t you?” I was shouting at Clovio by the time that I was done. I could feel a burning hot rage boiling inside of me. “Y..you are one of th..those monsters.” I placed a hand over my mouth and my stomach at the same time. “Oh my Goddess, I..I can’t believe that I fell for this. Y..you were just using me. Y..you were going to kill me, weren’t you?”
I was looking at Clovio through a haze of red. The anger that was coursing through me was stronger than I had ever felt in my entire life. I wanted to hit something. I wanted to rip something to pieces. I wanted to destroy something and make sure that it wasn’t able to continue on. I wouldn’t do that though, no matter how much I wanted to. I wasn’t a monster. I wasn’t a mindless beast like he probably thought that I was.
“You must have thought that it was pretty fucking funny, huh?” I snapped at him. My words and angry tone of voice were the only weapons that I was going to use against this asshole. “You must think that I was pretty damned pathetic. You knew who I was from the start, didn’t you? That is why you didn’t look shocked to hear the title of princess, king, and queen. You knew who I was. You knew what I was, and you were just using me. This was nothing more than a game to you, huh? What was all of this meant to prove, huh? That the eldest princess was a stupid na?ve girl that you were able to trick into dating you? How far were you going to take this, huh? Were you going to sleep with me and then try to kill me? Were you going to make sure that I was fully in love with you before you tried to kill me? What was your end game here, huh Clovio?” I could feel the tears streaming down my face now. I hadn’t even known that they had started to flow, but now that they were, I couldn’t stop them.
“Rika.” Clovio was looking at me with wide eyes. It was like he hadn’t even heard half of what I had just said. “Y..you were falling in love with me?”

“STOP IT!” I snapped at him. “Stop acting like you’re happy to hear that. I shouldn’t have been. I should have been smarter. But dammit, Clovio, you were the first boy that I liked. You were the first boy that I ever went out with, and you betrayed me. I don’t know what I was feeling. I thought it was love, but I don’t know anymore.” I wrapped my arms around myself as I tried to hold myself together. My parents, Lyssa’s parents, Lucas, Westin, all of them were staring at me and Clovio as I exploded at him. This was not how I wanted to hash this out, but I guess that I didn’t have much of a choice.
“I swear, Rika, I didn’t mean to hurt you. Y..yes, I was supposed to get close to you and your brother. I was supposed to be friends with you and nothing more. B..but I really do like you. I wanted to be with you. I didn’t care why I had been sent here anymore. I was falling for you too, Rika. I swear.”
“STOP LYING TO ME!” I snapped at him. “I don’t want to hear this anymore. You are horrible, Clovio. You are horrible and I never want to see you again.”
I spat the words at him angrily. I would have liked to slap him across the face, but I was afraid that if I lashed out physically that I wouldn’t be able to stop. And I didn’t want to because of that monster. He and whoever else was with him wanted to kill my people. They thought that we weren’t worth keeping alive. They probably thought that I was nothing more than a stupid dog. A mindless killing machine or whatever. And I refused to be that right now. I wasn’t going to give him or anyone else in his group of assholes the satisfaction.
“I hate you, Clovio. I hate you so much.”
I couldn’t stop myself anymore. I let the sorrow overwhelm me and ran from the room. I didn’t want to be anywhere near this man again. I didn’t want to be near any of them at all. Except perhaps Lyssa. And since she followed me out of my room and up to my room, I wasn’t going to stop her. She was just as hurt as I was. She had been betrayed just as thoroughly as I had been. She might even be feeling worse than I was right now. She was mated to Warrick and had been lied to by him.
All I was able to do when I got to my room was collapse onto my bed and sob into my pillow. Lyssa mimicked me, crying next to me into another pillow as we both let loose every single tear in our entire bodies. I cried over Clovio. I cried over what I had thought I had with him. I cried over the truth that I had learned about him. And I cried over the gaping hole that I felt in my chest with him having betrayed me like that. Everything was over with us, but it hurt so much because this was the first time that I had ever felt something like this.
