" what do you mean the wedding is going to be held tomorrow? I thought we still had a month? this is not something small you can plan and execute within a day, has Killian lost his mind?! "" don't bother stressing yourself too much Mother, it's not like he's going to listen to anyone. Besides, he probably knows our plans already, he's making sure we don't have any opportunity to act in the future " Zayn said, he placed a piece of grape in his mouth and chewed it Softly. he had a nonchalant air around him but when one looks closely they could see how stressed he was. he was as worried as his mother, but unlike her, he knew how to control his emotions better. However she was a lot better at deceit, Zayn never wanted to pretend to like someone he didn't, especially not for so many years. he doesn't even know why she bothers doing it. The King knew and Killian did as well, she could fool others as much as she wanted to but she couldn't fool them. " I already warned you to not do anythin
A week passed by very slowly, Lisa saw very little of Killian, from what she had heard, he was always with the Lycan King planning his succession. even though he didn't give her more time, she received an alert every single day. Killian always sent money to her, it was 2 million today, 3 million tomorrow, and a million the next day. Just within the few days they had been together she had amassed a total sum of 32 million, including all the money he had given her before marriage. at this point, she was already a Millionaire on her ownLisa knew she should be grateful for this alone, Killian was awfully generous and he ensured that he had a good life in the Palace. As the Crown Prince's wife she was respected and treated very well, everything she wanted was given to her in a blink of an eye. yet she spent most of her days locked up in her room, trying her very best to amend her slowly breaking heart. why couldn't she just be grateful for the money? why couldn't she be happy that she had
Ryan didn't expect to receive a call from the second prince of the Lycan Empire. Sure they had some dealings in the past, but it wasn't anything serious. All Ryan knew was that Zayn Walker wasn't a huge fan of his senior brother, the greedy bastard wanted to snatch the throne. It wasn't Ryan's business, the least he wanted was to get involved in others' personal affairs. But like they say, the Enemy of my enemy is my friend. So in this matter, he considered Zayn to be a good friend of his, since they all wanted the same thing, and that was to get Killian Walker out of the picture" you want to kill him " The Mafia prince was a bit surprised by Zayn's cold-hearted suggestion. He hadn't expected the prince to be willing to kill his brother, but that was exactly what Zayn was suggesting on the call. this was quite unexpected, but it's not like he was going to turn down the proposition. this was probably a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and he couldn't miss it. taking down Killian Walker
Ryan did whatever he thought possible to make it up to Lisa, he but her gifts, made her favourite food himself, and even offered to take her out on a date. but each of his offers was turned down with one excuse or other, it was clear that Lisa didn't want to hang out with him much, that was because she wanted to avoid getting more attached. She knew their time together was limited, and the thought of losing her child to him was almost traumatizing. If he found out about her pregnancy and insisted that she leave without her baby then there was nothing she could do about it. She thought about asking him for divorce, but even she knew how ridiculous that was. they hadn't even been married for a full month yet. Today she received an invitation from Queen Reina, the woman was hosting a small get-together for royal ladies, and she thought this was the perfect opportunity for Lisa to mingle with them. As the future Queen, she was expected to have a good relationship with the wives of minis
she didn't expect to find him waiting for her, and just seeing that displeased expression on his face she knew that he wasn't particularly happy with her choice of going against his warning. " I told you to stay away from her, didn't I?"" it was just a small gathering, plus, was I just to turn down your mother's invitation without giving any valid excuse? "" she is not my mother. and I've told you countless times, she doesn't like you, in fact I bet she is already planning for a way to get you out of the palace " Killian knew that it was Reina who had told his father to refuse Lisa. if it wasn't for her then everything would have gone on smoothly. He would have taken over the throne and got them the hell out of this place. the thing was he didn't have time to always look out for his wife, there were a lot of political issues he needed to sort out, and he was afraid that someone might try to harm her in his absence. His Stepmother knew that he was only going to take over the throne
Lisa woke up with a severe headache. She was tied down to a chair, and on closer look, she found herself in an unfamiliar environment. A dark room with no windows, it was filled with dust which made breathing almost unbearable. It didn't take her long to recall what had happened and how she had ended up here. Zayn has betrayed her, one of the few people she had let herself Trust had ended up stabbing her in the back ruthlessly. The reason still wasn't clear, but she knew for certain it had to do with Killian. Lisa could hear Killian's warning in her head, how many times have you told her to stay away from Zayn, to not trust him or his mother, but she hadn't listened. Her heart was beating fast in her chest and she was in severe pain, her head was throbbing and she could feel the dried blood on her skin. She might have a concussion, or maybe it was even worse than that, it was hard to tell. Lisa's eyes teared up, she was on the brink of having a panic attack, but she reminded herself
The sky was dark by the time they reached Kremlin Mountain, not because it was nighttime but because of the rain. It was going to be raining heavily soon, the place would be cold and muddy, and their task would be made even more complicated. Ryan glanced at Lisa on the ground, she was on her knees and had her hands tied behind her back. She could see the tears running down her face, the anxiety and worry in her eyes. This woman, why couldn't she worry about herself for once? Ryan wants to tell her that Killian might not even come, he might decide that she wasn't worth the risk. If that happens ( which was very likely ), they would have no other choice than to kill her. Because as Zayn said, she had already seen their faces and knew their identity, if they Let Her Go the Lycan King would find her and make her confess what happened. Killian wasn't the one Zayn was most worried about. Even if Killian knew that he had a hand in Lisa's kidnapping, he wouldn't be able to prove it. Everyone
" he is in critical condition. No one is sure whether or not he would wake up, I am sorry, you can only have patience in this situation " It was the fifth time Lisa had heard those words from the doctor. at this point, she was completely tired of them not having any useful information. It had been 2 weeks already, and Killian was still unconscious, she hadn't heard much about Zayn, but she knew that Evelyn was locked up somewhere. The Lycan King would never let the public know that his son had a hand in his brother's assassination attempt. So rather the matter was kept private. Even though Killian's father was just as worried as she was, he spent most of his night in the hospital beside Killian. Lisa on the other hand even had a room in the hospital ward, her father-in-law ensured she was comfortable. He never said it out loud but he appreciated Lisa a lot for her loyalty. They both waited anxiously for the news of Killian's Recovery, but the more days past the more they lost hope. T
Asher stepped out of the car. His gaze was focused on Kira the moment he was out, he saw that she wouldn't even meet his gaze as she stood behind the golden-haired man. His fist clenched as he walked towards them, hoping to make himself as intimidating as possible. He couldn't help feeling betrayed by the fact that he wasn't the first person Kira had reached out to when she got out of that damn forest. He didn't even know how long she had been out, how come no one had told him? If it wasn't for him finding out himself then he would have probably gone on thinking that the love of his life was still dead." What are you doing here? " Zayn asked him. The man was shooting him a murderous look as he moved in front of Kira and Knox, shielding them away from Asher like the Lycan king was a monster out to kill them. " you shouldn't be here!"" Why not uncle? Why shouldn't I come to see Kira for myself? After all, no one was willing to inform me about her still being alive. I've been searching
Kira had arrived with Knox some time ago, her father had been very happy to see her just like she had expected. But she didn't even need to explain to him how she had survived, he seemed to know to have known already which made her a bit anxious. She was afraid that if her father already knew she was alive then it would mean that Asher and his family must have found out as well, it would only be a matter of time before they came for her right. But Ryan had assured her that apart from him and Zayn no one else knew about it. Knox had stuck to her side the entire time, he didn't say anything and had only watched our interaction with her father. Ryan glanced at him and he immediately knew that this had to be the dragon Boy the dark wolves were after. The golden hair and eyes gave away his identity.After making sure that Kira and the Dragon were settled, he immediately increased security in his mansion. He was also afraid that the Lycan family might find out about Kira and they would imme
Asher is relieved because finally, his hard work is paying off. He was on his way to finding the love of his life, the Dark Wolf had told them the reason why Kira had been taken and he had even given out the location where Evelyn was being kept. The man however refused to confess about where the rest of his pack members were. But Asher was confident that with time the man would give out, Afterall Ace's torture method was not light and Asher was even surprised that the Aloha hadn't spoken up yet.Ace came to find him that morning, there was panic on the man's face and Asher knew immediately that something had been done wrong. " He was killed, " Ace said. He led the way to the dungeons and the Lycan King was greeted with the heavy stench of blood. Their captive was lying in a pool of his own blood, his eyes were wide and lifeless, and a deep cut stretched across his neck. Asher glanced at the discarded knife in the corner of the room and sighed." How did they get in?"" I have no idea.
Slowly, a month passed by. Kira had already gotten used to her new life, and now that she thought about it life here wasn't really as bad as you thought. Knox had been very good to her, he gave her everything she needed. From time to time she would still bring up the topic of getting out of the forest, he would always shut her down before, but now she could already see that his reluctance was facing away gradually. She would tell him interesting stories about her life outside and the place she visited. And that was what had managed to catch his interest. He wanted to see a lot of the things she had mentioned, and Kira was willing to show him.And finally, Knox had given in. " we can go outside, but only for a little while. We will come back as soon as you see your dad, is that fine with you "" Yes, that's perfect " Kira was so excited that she hugged him. He wrapped his arms around her tightly, he buried his nose in the crook of her neck, and took in a deep breath of her scent. Kira
Asher and Ace exchanged looks again. Asher didn't believe what this man was saying one bit, at first he had been willing to take his words seriously but now he was beginning to wonder if everything the man had told him so far had been nothing but lies. Was he also lying about Kira being alive? Maybe he had let himself be captured so that he could deceive them. Asher felt anger and he took a threatening step towards the man. " Do you think we are stupid? I gave you a chance to save your pathetic life and now you are lying to me?" " I SWEAR! I am not lying!"" You expect me to believe that a Dragon resides in that forest? The same forest that has been in my kingdom for decades?"" You have to believe me, Your Majesty! I swear that I am not lying. The reason we took her in the first place was to have her lure the Dragon out of the forest. I have no reason to lie to you, please you have to believe me. "Asher's fist clenched by his side, he really wanted to punch this man hard in the fac
There were places in the Forbidden Forest she hadn't explored despite having walked around it for days. Or maybe Knox just hadn't wanted her to find them yet, Kira came to learn that he was able to do things like that, hide places he didn't want her to see then reveal them later on when he wanted her to find them. The little things she had read about Dragons never gave them away as magical creatures. Sure at one point they were considered the most powerful shape shifters that roamed the earth, but she never knew they could do magic. Whenever she asked Knox about his powers he would just tell her that it was something that came along with behind a mix of blood. She had no idea what he meant by that. Dragons didn't mate with other species, so their bloodline was always pure. But then again maybe that was a part of history she hadn't read. Maybe Dragons did mate with others, maybe Knox was a crossbreed between a dragon and a witch, that would explain his powers. But she had never really
Zayn went to find Ryan the moment he learned of the truth, it wasn't easy for him to do this because he remembered Evelyn's warning, she had begged him to not tell anyone or else here is life might really be in danger, but he couldn't just stand outside and watch his daughter suffer. Zayn knew that the only person who might love Kira as he did was none other than her adopted father. Ryan had been the one to his Kira and he had taken good care of her, Zayn still owed him a lot and he hoped that this would be enough repayments for him. Besides she didn't want to have to rely on Killian to find his daughter, he didn't want his nephew to know about this matter as well. Zayn left Moon-Dust and went to the human world to see Ryan, he was surprised that Ryan's bodyguards let him into the house willingly and didn't even try to stop him or question him, he wondered if Ryan might have known about his coming. Zayn made his way into the house, he found the person he was looking for seated in the
* * *Evelyn knew Zayn was looking for her, she had to have known. What he wasn't sure of was how she had managed to stay hidden for so long. Zayn was sure that Evelyn wasn't a very smart person, if she was she wouldn't have done what she did. He had always found her incredibly annoying, when they had got caught and charged with the crime of wanting to kill Killian, it wasn't the thought of going to prison that annoyed him, but the thought of being stuck with Evelyn again. Thankfully they hadn't been locked up together. He never liked her, she had always been a tool for him to use, and when he had no use for her he wanted her as far away from him as possible.So when he heard of her escape from Prison, even though he knew where she had hidden he didn't bother telling his brother about it, because he never wanted her to come back, he didn't want her to have the chance of meeting their daughter, he had wanted to keep Kira as far away from her despicable mother as possible. But if only h
A week after his coronation, Asher focused all his attention on recruiting more men into his army. His parents had left on a vacation, because now that his father wasn't king anymore they wanted to make up for all the lost time they couldn't spend together due to how busy Killian was. Alex had also moved away with Evan since their marriage, although they still lived in Moon-Dust and his sister could afford to come visit anytime she wanted. But Asher didn't wish for her to come back, she might only be a distraction to him if she did, now that he was alone in the palace he didn't have to constantly worry about another attack on his family. He could focus fully on his thirst for revenge.So far the Dark Wolves hadn't made any action. Evelyn was nowhere to be found, which made him blame his uncle for letting her go in the first place. All this would have been much easier if they still had Evelyn in custody, she would be the one to answer the questions he desperately needed to know. For ex
