"You!" he growled. Before he could say another word, Hayden moved over with the speed of lightning, grabbed him by the neck, and suspended him on the wall. Darius groaned, making incoherent noises as Hayden applied pressure on his neck.I just stood there bewildered at first but soon started, enjoying the view and the drama unfolding. "You dare not disrespect my mate," he barked at Darius was already raising both hands in submission since his neck was of no use at the moment. Hayden growled and let him fall to the ground when he was satisfied with the damage he had done to him. Darius scampered to the corner of the room, coughing hard with fear written all over him. It was fun seeing him like that. For someone who has done a lot of atrocities, I was disappointed that he would be scared so easily, but it is what it is. I know if we let him go, he would run back to Agnar and Celine. I thought I was going to rest a little while before I dived into the ocean one more time, but, I was
I woke up the next morning to find out I was snuggling with Hayden, locked together in each other's embrace like Siamese twins, snoring away. He was still asleep, or so I assumed. The mating bond was messing with my head, and I had a thousand imaginations going through my head, but then one thing hit me: I wasn't having visions anymore, even when he had been touching me for a long time. I had been careful since I started staying with Hayden; I didn't want anyone to find out about my vision, coupled with the fact that I had never read a lycan before. The very thought of sneaking around a Lycan's head sends fear to my heart. They are wild beasts that can't be tamed; I have no idea what to expect, so till then, my hand remains with me. "But then, if we have been holding hands for so long, why aren't I seeing anything? Shit, he reads my mind: "I scolded myself. My gaze rested on his lips. He might be all muscled up and hard, but his lips looked soft, and the last time we kissed, it w
I was in the back seat of the black SUV with Tessa sitting beside me. One of his men was sitting in the passenger seat at the front of the car while the driver kept speeding off. Hayden had promised to take me shopping today but suddenly called a few minutes ago to tell me he wouldn't make it, saying I should either cancel today or go to the mall alone.I hated shopping, but I had been looking forward to leaving this house to get some fresh air, and there he was talking about canceling. I quickly told him that I didn't mind going alone, nothing surprises me anymore, I wasn't expecting much from him anymore. I was preparing to leave when I remembered Tessa. We told her about the mate thing but skipped the part where I was being hunted. She was glad we found each other but I could sense there was more to it but quickly waved it off. She jumped on the offer the moment I asked her and within a few seconds, she was already ready. I was lost in my world, looking out the car window, w
The smell of water and forest trees is driving me nuts. But then I felt like I wasn't alone. Before I saw him and his minions, I had walked right into the trap. They were here for my reckoning, but I was not going to be an easy kill. Before I could say another word, he grabbed me by the throat. While trying to stab me, I pushed him back, twisting his hand. I took the blade from him and buried the silver blade in his stomach, but then I felt the other assassins surrounding me. I knew what came next; I had played this game before, but this time I was the prey, not the predator, and I knew how the story usually ends for the prey, even if one is as dangerous as I am. Another tried to grab me. I quickly ripped one of his hands off me and swiftly somersaulted to the far end, another charged at me and then ripped off the head of the next assassin who charged at me, watching his lifeless body fall to the ground. I was surrounded, but I was not going to beg like a rat; instead, I would die
"Kay!" "What?""Your hands?" he said, pointing at my hands. I took a glance when he quickly walked past me."What are you doing?" I asked Cain, who was busy searching the whole room with his silver blade in his hands, ready as always to plunge it into anyone. He must have thought that there was an intruder in my room. No one dares come close to the base unless they have a death sentence. "Is someone here? Do they have a gun?" He whispered. "There is no one here." I tried reassuring him. "Then why are your hands stained with blood?" he asked, pointing at my bloody hands. "Um, this, I... I forgot to wash up when I got in yesterday night.""You forgot?" he asked, raising an eyebrow. "Don't judge; I was too tired, ok?"Cain is one of the wolves who is very distrustful and checks every piece of information being passed to him. I had to make sure he believed me, as I didn't want to give him anything to bite on and start researching. We nicknamed him the Hellhound because he never lets
I always thought I was fast, but the Lycans are in another league altogether. I stood up while staring at his surprise. My wolf kept pushing me to acknowledge my mate. He was tall and domineering with his dreamy gray eyes staring right into my soul. I had no idea what this could mean, Agnar is my mate but why I feel the same attraction towards this lycan beats me. I could tell he could feel the attraction but thank goddess I cloaked my scent, this could have been a disaster. "How dare you stare the prince in the eyes, pay your respect!" The man from behind him yelled at me, I quickly shot him lasers from my eyes and my palm curled up into a fist, ready to charge at him. "You dare disrespect the prince" he barked at me, his hands immediately turned to claws within a split second and aimed at my heart, my fist tightened as I was ready to defend myself, but a pair of firm hands interrupted the fight. He gripped his man's hand tightly. "Stand down!" the Lycan prince barked at him.
"I guess you feel better now," he said, gently walking towards me. I barely escaped having been marked yesterday night; I know the possessive prick would be eager to brand me his. "Damn!" I internally cursed; if only I had seen him earlier, I would pretend to be sick or dead if that was what it would take to keep his canine away from me. "Not really" l replied "Aren't you supposed to be out right now?" I asked before I could even realize it. "I decided to come check up on you.""Oh," I said in a low tone, glad he didn't catch up. "What is your name, pup?" he asked. I wanted to kick him in the eyes for calling me a pup but held back in my anger. "Katya, Katya Paw," I replied. "Kay, I love it," he said, smiling. "Whore," I cursed, if only those smiles could hide your sins. "Why were you here last night?" he asked yet again. Of course, the same old questions, "I went out hunting for my dinner and lost track of time. I got lost in the woods on my way back, and here I was," I said
"What are you doing out here?" I was startled, but I knew who the voice belonged to."I needed some fresh air; I was feeling choked up in the room." I turned to see the tall figure standing beside him, Beta Rex. He was one wolf that was hard to read; he was Agnar's father's Beta; and was just a few years older than Agnar.I heard he became a beta at the age of 17 when his father died, and he is one hell of a beta; he is more like Agnar's confidante when he needs an adviser. which makes me wonder if he was the one who wanted Agnar dead. I mean, he and Gertrude are the ones who stand to gain the most if Agnar is out of the way; maybe he even orchestrated the betrayal and my death, since I was in his way also.But I have no evidence against him; if he was indeed the missing piece, he sure hid pretty well."You shouldn't be out here alone; come, I will walk you," Agnar said, grabbing my hand. He mindlinked something to Rex, and he turned to leave immediately.We walked in total silence. I
