Chapter 1102: Side story: we are in this together
Once they were away from the river, Jedrek carelessly tossed the little beast on to the solid ground and spoke calmly. "Shift."
Kace was indeed a Donovan, but he was too small and was not in a good condition to refuse Jedrek\'s order when he used his Alpha tone.
Meanwhile, Torak could only shake his head upon seeing how Jedrek was treating their little brother. "Using your Alpha tone on him…" he muttered as he stood beside Jedrek. "You are unbelievable."
When Jedrek heard that, he didn\'t give any response and just glanced in Torak\'s direction briefly before he refocused his gaze on Kace, who was trying to shift back into his human form, while struggling with the itching that he felt and the need to concentrate.
It took around two minutes for Kace to be able to shift back into his human form and as soon as he was able to do it, he lay sprawled helplessly on the ground.
"It is very itchy…" he said sullenly, trying to reach the itchy parts of his skin, which covered almost every single inch. He felt like small insects were walking on his skin and this feeling was almost unbearable. "You didn\'t say anything about this…" Kace whisper- shouted accusingly at his older brother, his blue eyes filled with hatred and pain. He was annoyed.
"Did you ask?" Jedrek folded his arms and stared at Kace for a few seconds before he decided that this wasn\'t the right time to bicker with his poor little brother.
Therefore, he walked toward him and bent down, offering his shoulders to him. "Climb up," he said in a boring tone.
Kace grumbled and kept scratching his body, but he did what he was told and started climbing Jedrek\'s back.
Once the little boy was secured on his back, Jedrek stood up and started walking through the forest, to go back to their castle, where all the people were still looking for the little prince.
Meanwhile, Torak followed behind the two of them silently. He didn\'t want to get involved in their squabble. At this moment, Jedrek did not seem as mature as he should be at his age.
"Stop moving," Jedrek reprimanded him. "Or I will drop you."
"It is so itching!" Kace shouted into his ears and this made Jedrek growling in a low voice, a warning. "It is very itchiiiiinggggg!" The little boy didn\'t care about his brother\'s warning, because all he could care about was the suffering that he had to go through because of him. "I want motherrrrr!!!"
"Shut up!" Jedrek scolded him, raising his voice a few octaves, but it didn\'t stop Kace from screaming into his ears and this annoyed his brother to a great extent.
"I want motherrrrrrr!!!"
On the other hand, Torak looked up at the blue sky, his expression was that of one who was boring with his current situation.
Because after this, he would have to hear their mother scolding Jedrek and the situation wouldn\'t get any better soon, knowing their mother\'s personality.
He just hoped he wouldn\'t get affected by Jedrek\'s stupidity.
==============
"How could you do that to your own brother?!" The queen felt a headache coming when she heard what actually had happened from Kace. "You know exactly what are the side effects of the magic!"
The queen was trying to hold down Kace\'s small body, so the healer could put some oilment on his burning and itching skin, as the time passed, the itching became even more unbearable and now Kace was crying his eyes out.
Actually, this wouldn\'t be hurting so bad if one used it in decent amounts, yet Kace didn\'t know it and just poured the whole pouch of magic dust on his body, therefore the result was so bad.
It was a good thing that Jedrek knew the place where Kace always hid whenever he went out of the castle area.
"I didn\'t do it, he did it himself," Jedrek retorted. "I didn\'t order him to use the magic dust." Literally speaking, what Jedrek said was true, but it sounded wrong if you knew the whole story.
The queen pinched the bridge of her nose and let the healer to do their job.
Jedrek was indeed the carbon copy of his father, because he didn\'t want to lose any argument, though the facts were right in front of their noses. It was hard to talk to them when they were being stubborn.
Sometimes, the queen felt there was something wrong with the way those two men were thinking.
"But, you told him about it." The queen didn\'t want to back down either and the other people inside the room could only stay silent since they didn\'t want to disturb their hot squabble.
Even Torak just listened with a boring expression on, while standing beside Kace\'s bed, folding his arms and waiting for them to be done with this, because he wasn\'t allowed to leave the room.
To think about it again, he had nothing to do with this, thus there was no benefit whatsoever for him being here.
However, he didn\'t want to jump head on with his angry mother.
"Just because he asked me."
The queen let out a frustrating sigh and shook her head again. No. She couldn\'t handle it this way. "You will stay inside the dark room, inside the library, until you repent for your mistake!"
After saying that, the queen walked out of the room, following the other people who were carrying Kace toward his chamber.
"Let\'s go," Jedrek said to Torak.
"What do you mean by \'let\'s go\'?" Torak frowned. "That is your punishment. I will not go with you."
"We are in this together."
Torak: ???
\'We are in this together\', my a**!
