An Offering To The Cursed Lycan King Chapter 8
*Rocky/Roscoe POV*Gemini looks like she is about to fall over, her eyes lidded and her skin pale as she hobbles around my tiny room, stopping at the fireplace and running her hands along the stone. I scan her leg, frowning when I notice the still visible injury on her ankle. It should be gone by now, healed skin with no scabs. “Have a seat,” I tell her and she turns, looking over her shoulder, a soft smile lingering on her lips from some random thought of memory. “I’ll put some herbs on your ankle”She looks down at her foot as if she had forgotten it was there, like we hadn’t spent the majority of our time bickering about her being carried on my back because of her injury.“Uh, sure,” she says before frowning. “Will it hurt?”I can’t help the laughter that finds its way out as I shake my head and walk toward the greenhouse to collect some medicinal herbs. There is no point in answering her. Of course it will hurt a little, but it’s her fear of that little pain I find amusing. The h

The soft sound of whimpering pulls me from my sleep, causing me to sit up, startled. I look over and see Gemini as she thrashes, little, her fingers twitching. Part of me thinks I should wake, but the other part, the part that wants to know her secrets since she knows mine, watches instead.“No,” she whines, curling into a ball, “No, they can’t be gone.”I sit up, sliding closer to her, not sure if the closeness will startle her or help her. My hand glides over her shoulder, touching the fabric of the shirt I gave her as I give her a soft, hopefully comforting pat. She seems to lean into my touch, and I’m not sure what the hell to do with that.“No, no, no,” she whimpers, tossing and turning to face me. Gemini wiggles into my side, her fingers curling into the blanket at my waist and her cheek pressing into my stomach as she seems to flinch and groan. “What will I tell him?”“Tell who?” I ask softly, trying to distract myself from the tiny sparks that seem to linger from the broken ma

*Gemini POV* I groan, pushing myself up from the ground slowly to my hands and knees. My face stings, my nose throbbing and eyes watering from slamming down into the grass. One second I’m walking, the next I am eating grass. I don’t recall seeing a hole in the ground, and I didn’t trip over my foot. “Don’t come any closer rogue,” I hear a familiar voice, and my stomach rolls. Shit. “A rogue? Come on, I know you know who I am." Roscoe says, sounding amused. "You killed those you swore to protect. If anyone is a rogue here it's you” The familiar deep voice says, rumbling through the trees. “That’s how you want to play this, Alpha Bentley?” Roscoe asks. I furrow my brows as I spin to look at the Alpha I know as Alpha Gage. Why the hell is he calling him by his last name and not his alpha title? “It's Alpha Gage." He grits out. "No. Your name is Alpha Bentley, your whole line of alphas are weak and you don't deserve a unique name title.” Roscoe says, making it known as the Alpha Kin

Bentley tosses me to the ground, my palms aching from catching my fall. Then he squats in front of me. Tearing my shirt off of me, he yanks free three strips then hands the fabric off to the three warriors.“Give me your shirt,” He demands from one of the ones I recognize. He does as commanded, and Bentley catches it before he slams it down over my head.“You are wrong.” I grit out, trying to convince him to let me go, that he doesn’t know shit about the Lycans and their situation. Bentley shrugs. “I am confident enough to test that theory,” He says before turning to the warriors he handed my shirt to. “Run in opposite directions with that. Rub it on trees, tear small pieces and stick them in bushes.”“I refuse to walk.” I tell him. “No way I am budging a fucking inch.”He furrows his brow, looking at me like I’ve grown a second head.“It’s not even been two full days. Where the fuck did you find this attitude?” He questions, reaching out and trying to yank me up. “Amazing what a li

*Roscoe POV* My skin tingles as I scan her body, my lycan begging for another round with the assholes who made her bleed. I know the mate bond will eventually spark to life again after some time. But this is different. This is a deeper, hungrier need to keep her safe from everyone. To keep her with me. “You don’t understand,” Bentley says, the fear weaving through his voice as it quivers. “We need her.” I smirk, taking slow, measured steps toward him, watching as his false bravado falls away with each one. His once cocky, ‘I take what is mine’ demeanor is gone, replaced by a frightened old man who just can’t let go. “What for?” I ask, glancing over at Gemini, making sure she is far enough away from Bentley that whatever I do to him doesn’t transfer to her. “We need her, my pack needs her,” He stutters. I can’t help the way my eyes roll, tired of the lies. What this asshole needs is death, and I am only too happy to give him exactly that. I sigh, finally close enough that he take

*Gemini* I keep my eyes forward, my hand tight in Rocky’s as he stalks behind me. My stomach feels like it is rolling. The scent of blood in the shrouded forest is intense and takes over my senses. Blood has never made me queasy before but watching how he fought, what the very hands that are gripping mine so gingerly have done with such ease. It makes my chest ache knowing how many lives were taken. Not that I blame Rocky. No, I blame the selfish asshole Bentley. How the hell he managed to raise someone like Athena? I’m not sure I will know. All I know is whether she intended to get me out because she cared about me or get me out because she wanted me gone, she got me out and I am forever grateful for that gift from her. “You do not have to rush,” Rocky says, giving my hand a soft tug, but I refuse to stop.I can’t let anyone else get killed because of me. Bentley may have been the asshole that led everyone out here, but it was me he was after. My freedom came at a price, and that

Rocky’s hands cradle me close, tucking safely into his body as a scream tears from my lips the moment we tumble off the cliff. I try to look, but he doesn’t budge an inch. It feels like we are falling forever until we slam back into the water. It swirls around me, tearing at me, my hair yanking and pulling in various directions as Rocky remains still, the two of us sinking to the bottom like a boulder. My chest burns, my lungs beg for air as panic takes hold and I realize I’m going to die here. There was no good gulp of air before we went under and my wolf whines in my head, trying to keep us alive with whatever she is capable of doing to give me more time.My muscles slowly contract and convulse, fighting against the lack of oxygen. I thrash, trying to break free from him. Shit, I need air! I need to get to the top now. What the fuck is taking him so long? His massive hands move from the back of my head and my lower back to frame my face, then he presses his lips to mine, making me

*ROCKY* As I close in on the shoreline, I keep my eyes focused on the bodies that are left after the fight with the rogues, looking for any movement and hoping they are dead. My feet touch the rocky bottom beneath us as I walk, our bodies rising from the water until I stop. I reach up, gripping her hands and removing them from me, trying to ignore the way her breasts press against me as she slides down my back. Gemini whimpers for a moment, her dainty hands clinging to my sides before she lets out an adorable, surprised sound. I bite back a smile before turning to speak to her. The water comes low on my waist but is high enough to keep me covered from her wandering eyes. I arch a brow, trying not to laugh as she covers her breast with her arm. “I will go and see what I can find clothing wise.” I tell her and she nods, her hands firmly in place, hiding her body. There is no helping the chuckle as I shake my head and turn, walking toward the shore warily. “Wait,” she hisses in a lou

An Offering To The Cursed Lycan King Epilogue: One year later
*Gemini* **One year Later** I watch the door, anxiously waiting for Rocky to pop in any moment. My palms sweat and I inhale deeply, wiping the clammy feeling on my lilac sundress. Something happened, something unexpected and scary, something I have no idea how to tell him about as I work to control my breathing. He left me three long days ago and he will come home to a whole new world, one I’m not sure either of us are ready for. The door creaks open, and I jump up from my chair, rushing to him only to stop and groan in annoyance. “Wow, not happy to see me? Do I visit too much?” Jude asks with a fake scoff. I chuckle nervously and walk up to my Alpha brother and give him a big hug. “I am always happy to see you, but I am waiting for Rocky. It’s been three days and I’m excited.” I say with a smile. He furrows his brows and tilts his head. “Excited or nervous?” he waves his hand in my face, “Because this looks like anxiety, not excitement.” I slap his hand away, pressing my l

*Gemini*“Remind me again what we are doing?” I ask Rocky as he saunters through the pack, dragging me along like he is looking for something. It is obvious his mind is preoccupied elsewhere, but I don’t mind it. Honestly, even with all the stress of learning what it is to be a present alpha for his pack, he is less tense than he was before. Not that I blame him. The whole ‘doom and gloom’ lingering over his pack and his death just continuing the whole issue has a tendency to weigh on a person.“We,” he says, pausing to look around a corner into a small backyard with a beautiful garden. “Are looking for someone.”“Oh?” I ask curiously. “And who is it we are looking for?”“Well, she is a girl.” He says, and I blink at the back of his adorably dense head.“First of all, I want to preface this by saying we agreed not to lie. Second, I don’t like the idea of you looking for another woman.” I admit and he stops, suddenly looking at me with a huge grin on his lips. Then he turns to face me
An Offering To The Cursed Lycan King Chapter 63
I’ve never been in this meeting room before, not even as a kid. It was only ever used for alpha’s which was a moot point considering they were never even here to make use of it. In a way, it became the Beta’s office, used to manage and run an entire pack. To carry all the weight of it while us alpha’s struggled on the outside. It’s strange being in here now, gliding my hand over the smooth cherry wood table that seats thirty people. The window lines the entire wall, looking out into a meadow with a tiny creek that spills out into a lake. On the other side I can see children playing in the water.A smile twitches at the corner of my mouth when I recall the times Bridger and I would play in that same lake. The way we would squeal when the cold water hit our skin. The same place my kids will get to grow up and not have this heavy looming cloud of doom over their heads. My children, if Gemini wants them, will get to play uninhibited with the pressures of having to learn to survive on th

*Rocky*“I’d rather not get out of bed.” I whisper, reaching out and tugging Gemini back toward me as she tries to scurry away. She squeals out loudly in a playful giggle, reaching her arm back and dragging her nails through my hair. I pull her close, nuzzling my face into the crook of her neck where my mark is. She is mine; she is here and not a damn thing can take her from me. Not even an appointment with the reality of the life of a Lycan King.“You have a meeting,” she reminds me, though she wiggles into me more, her bare skin rubbing parts of me that don’t need any more encouragement.“I have a mate. That is far more important than some alphas who want to speak with me.” I tell her honestly. Gemini sighs heavily before she shifts in my arms, spinning to face me. She wears her serious expression and I loosen my hold on her, waiting for her to tell me exactly what I am going to be doing.“What are you so afraid of?” She whispers. Her gentle and knowing eyes find mine, holding my ga

*Gemini*It’s not just the sparks from the bond that are sending my nerves into overdrive, but the anticipation, the waiting hopelessly for exactly this. If I hadn’t already verified I was indeed alive, I would almost think this was a dream.But the way his heart beats in sync with mine, the way he clings to me like his very existence is on the line if we part. It paints this as my reality. The dream I craved and never expected.“Are you okay?” He murmurs against my lips, his cheek brushing over mine as he pants and drags his nose along my jawline. My body shivers involuntarily as my eyes close, relishing every second.“Yes,” I murmur.Rocky leans back on his knees, his eye drinking in every bit of my exposed body. I’m too entranced with his rippling abs to be concerned or embarrassed enough to be shy.I have seen Rocky nude. I have seen him topless on more occasions that I can count. And yes, I have always checked him out at every opportunity, but there is something different when he

*Rocky*“Alpha,” Bridger says, coming up from behind me. My eyes close tight, hating that he is taking away from my time with Gemini. I know I haven’t been around my best friend in ten years. And I also know he has been the acting alpha internally for that entire time and he finally gets a reprieve. But I finally have my mate.“Yes?” I sigh, sitting back in my seat in disappointment, setting my fork down and looking mournfully at Gemini. “The alphas who joined with Jude are rather eager to speak with you now that you are awake and doing better.” He says. “Right,” I mutter, dragging a hand through my hair and wincing at the movement. I may be better than I was, but I am most definitely not fully functioning yet. But being the Alpha King means dealing with it and doing what must be done. “Are you in pain?” Gemini asks, not missing a thing and I give her a soft smile before realizing that she didn’t take my pain. I wasn’t thinking to mask it or try to hide it since it came on so quickl

The fridge is stocked full of every kind of food I could ever dream of, which for a cut off pack is a feat in itself. My stomach growls, anything and everything making my mouth water until I see the steak and I can’t help but smile. It reminds me of the first time Rocky made me something to eat.“There are some raw veggies you can eat,” Jude offers and I shake my head. A sense of excitement settling in my chest. “No, I want to cook something.” I say, grinning. “Uh, for yourself?” He asks warily and I scoff, feigning hurt feelings.“What are you insinuating, brother, who I raised from the time he was a little child?” I lay it on thick as he laughs. “You make food well enough to stay alive, so thank you for that. But that is the nicest thing I can say.” He says.“Butthead.” I mutter, pulling out the steak and searching for some vegetables. “Oh, what would you like to eat?” An older woman asks, rushing into the large kitchen with a gentle smile on her face. “I can make anything you w

*Gemini*“It feels like my chest is going to implode,” Rocky says, his hand clutching his chest as he grows more coherent by the second.My hands shake as I reach out and touch him, selfishly relishing every little spark that dances across my fingertips. It is very apparent to me what is happening, but I doubt he has ever experienced anything like this before. “You just need to breathe. Focus on inhaling and exhaling.” I tell him, inching closer on my knees. “Look at me, okay? I am right here and we are both alive. We are both safe.”He meets my gaze, his eyes filled with terror and panic as he slowly comes back to me. After a moment, he nods, reaching out to take my hand in his as he presses it to his lips. Then he slumps back onto his butt, his back against the bed as he tugs me along with him. My eyes grow wide in surprise as he pulls me into his lap, holding me in his arms like he has done so many times in the past, cradling me like I am the one who needs it, not him.I don’t arg
