Chapter 772 - Seven Hundred And Seventy-two: Whats The End Result (2/2)

And here she was, hoping to spend some quality time with the prince before she decided what to do with him. Now, she has to move up the plan before Fiona finds out and handles it her way. She was not a fool to think that the woman would choose her over Akim and her revenge. She understood the need for this cause as well.

However, for the sake of the guards who were watching her with scrutiny, Anika resumed her bubbly personality. She couldn't let a mistake happen at a critical time like this.

Anika went into the class expecting to see Akim in their usual seat but he had moved to the backseat where there was no other space for her.

But Anika was not thwarted and went over to the seat occupied by one of the students and simply said one word to her, ”Get off,”

”Why?” The girl tried to be cheeky with her.

Anika smirked wickedly, ”Do I need to make you?” There was a hint of threat in her voice. Although she didn't bully any of the students, the event that transpired between her and Charlotte was already news and they've learned to respect her - more like fear her.

The girl scurried off and Anika sat down, facing Akim who intentionally didn't look at her.

”So after your week-long break, we're back to this?” there was a hint of disdain in her tone.

But all Akim gave her was silence.

”Fine, continue being a wordless bastard,” Anika cursed him, and that finally provoked the response she needed.

Akim growled warningly at her drawing other students' attention. Then without warning, he stood up, grabbed her hand, and began to drag her along with him.

Anika didn't say a word and followed him until he pulled her into the school's courtyard.

”What's the catch?!” Akim roared the instant he let go of her hand, ”What's the end result?”

”What?” Anika said, a clueless look on her face.

”Stop pretending. I know you're a part of the rebellion, Anika,” Akim sneered at her. He went on, ”And you intend to get to me since you and your people can't infiltrate the palace. I'm the easier target, the young, ignorant prince who hasn't had a taste of love,” Akim got angrier over the fact that he has been used all this while.

Anika frowned at him, ”What the fuck are you talking about, Akim? I have no idea what you're -”

Anika's eyes suddenly went wide when Akim grabbed her by the throat. She tried to speak but his grip cut her words off because he was choking her. So she tried to pull him away but Akim was stronger and she could only gasp for air.

”Enough of your games, Anika! Now tell me, who do you work for?”
