Although he was running out of breath, Chris didn't struggle nor did he plead for his life.
"Stay far away from me because even I don't know what I will do to you if I set my eyes on you. I might even stab you in the heart for this betrayal so leave now," Kayden threw Chris away not caring the direction.
He turned his back on Chris not wanting to see his face.
Chris, who was thrown into a big tree trunk, slowly stood up from the ground. He stared at the King whose back was facing him.
"I will take my leave now, Your Majesty," Chris bowed and walked away.
Even when Chris was gone Kayden didn't turn around.
"Your Majesty, we have got all the evidence," Gideon, Chris's second in command, said.
"Let's return to the palace and take a look at the CCTV cameras in the forest," Kayden said.
He walked away without taking a look at the stuff in Gideon's hands.
Some minutes later Kayden and three of his close guards were seen in a dark room full of big screens.
Footages could be seen playing on the screen. He clasped his fist when he saw the suffering Joanna went through.
"I want all the boys in the footage brought to the palace. Make sure their parents are aware of their crimes before you take them," Kayden passed his orders.
Gideon and the other guards bowed and left the room to carry out the King's order.
Reaching outside they were not surprised to see Chris waiting outside.
After learning about the mission the King gave them, he joined them but he made sure the guards promised not to mention his involvement to the King.
It wasn't until an hour after they left that they returned to the Palace with all the boys in the video in their company.
The boys who were subdued were hauled into the throne room by Gideon and his men.
Not long after they returned, the guy's father rushed to the palace seeking an audience with the King.
The angry Kayden refused to grant them an audience for an hour. All their pleas fell on deaf ears since the guards didn't let them go anywhere close to where the King was.
Kayden was with the five guys for an hour before he finally let in their anxious parents.
Despite being in front of the King, the Minister didn't mind their manners. The terrible state they met their sons made them go mad in rage.
"Do you admit your guilt?" Gideon asked the five guys sternly.
When they were brought to the throne room they were all proud because of their different family influence.
Just an hour of torture and they were humbled to their knees.
Anyways who on Earth wouldn't get terrified after what they went through in the hands of the King's elite guards.
"There is no evidence to prove your claims so why do you want them to admit a crime you falsely accused them of?" Mr Martinez asked angrily as he glared at Gideon.
"You think there is no evidence?" Kayden asked, his voice was still like water but the danger in it was very obvious.
"Watch carefully and tell me if this is enough evidence to shut you up?" Kayden asked as he stared at Gideon.
Understanding the signal Gideon turned and looked at another guard and almost immediately a video started playing on the projector.
The video started playing from when the guys entered the forest before they shifted into werewolves.
The clip played until it reached the scene where the guys started attacking Joanna and Audrey.
The clip skipped from there to when the guys left the forest. The scene of Joanna's clothes getting ripped off was deliberately removed.
"How is that possible?" Logan, Tiffany's cousin, said in disbelief.
All their thought was that there was no evidence of what they did in the forest and that is the reason they had refused to confess no matter how hard they were tortured.
Now that they were clips of them committing the act, they knew without being told that they were done for.
"Gideon, what is the punishment for the crime of murdering the Queen?" Kayden asked coldly.
Hearing the crime of murdering the Queen made the boys and their parents trembled like wet leaves.
"Death," Gideon said fiercely. The word DEATH repeatedly echoed in the perpetrators'head.
The scene of being hanged until every bit of it slipped out of him popped up in Logan's head.
Logan shook his head violently to shake off the thoughts in his mind.
"Not just mere death but a very painful one at that," Gideon concluded firmly.
"I don't need to tell you all to brace yourself for the…,"
"Your Majesty, it hasn't reached this extent. The kids were just being naughty. You know how children play nowadays," Mr Martinez said shamelessly.
"For the sake that they are just immature kids, please have mercy on them," Despite that his grandson committed such a crime, he wasn't sincere or repentant while talking to Kayden.
"Did I hear you say then murdering the Queen was an act of play?" Kayden asked, standing up from the throne he was sitting on.
"She was just 18 years old today while these boys are 20 years and above and you call them children?" Kayden asked as he climbed down the stairs.
With the King's counterattack, Mr Martinez was momentarily lost at what to say to defend his grandson.
"They brutally killed the Queen and you want me to show them mercy? Do you really take me for an idiot or is it that you have no respect for the crown?" Kayden thundered, making everyone go down on their knees.
The only one who didn't kneel was Mr Martinez who thinks that he could drag honour and respect with the King.
"We wouldn't dare, Your Majesty," They chorused with trembling voices.
Who could withstand the wrath of the King?
Even though he decided to kill all of them, none would dare to challenge him.
A few people will criticise him for a few weeks for brutally murdering his subjects and Ministers but this will be forgotten in a matter of weeks.
Why would they risk their lives to annoy such a being who has their lives in his hands right now?
"My grandson and his friends only helped you to get rid of a problem you have been wanting to rid yourself of all these years," Mr Martinez said with pride.
"They saved you the trouble of dirtying your hands with her filthy blood so you must be very happy right now so there is no need to pretend in front of us," Mr Martinez concluded, smiling broadly.
He was still grinning when Kayden, who just appeared in front of him, grabbed him by the neck and lifted him off the floor with one hand.
