Amber’s POV

We were attacked.

The words hung in the air above me, along with all the others I couldn’t force down my lungs. I couldn’t breathe; neither could I move. Although I could hardly recall the attack at Moonstone pack, the thought of being attacked again shook something inside me.

For a brief minute, I understood why Alpha Dale was drilling me so hard with training and exercises, but when I thought of him and Mallory, my understanding disappeared.

“Alpha Dale asked me to assign guards to you, Amber.” Beta Trent continued. Of course, I was the weakest among them. I had no wolf and no strength. My training was going well but not fast enough. I was still making mistakes and getting killed so many times.

“You can’t leave the pack house without the guards. And in whatever situation, either Alpha Dale or I will be with you at all times. We have no idea where the attack came from, but we have an idea who it was for. The prisoner was just a casualty.

  • Bride Of The Lycan King   Tied To You

    Dale’s POV She was gone before I had any chance to explain. I had no idea what she was thinking but I could feel her anxiety even from miles away. I closed my eyes shut, combing my fingers through my hair which had grown at least an inch since the last time I had a haircut. I needed a haircut, I needed a shave and I needed a fucking good sleep. “Well, wasn’t that dramatic?” Mallory said, leaning against the edge of my desk with a sly and annoying smirk playing across her face. I gritted my teeth, clenching my hands into fists on the desk. Did she not have the decency and common knowledge to read the room? I was not someone who liked to blame people for things that happened, but all of this was her fault. I heard her draw a sharp intake of breath before she stumbled backward, her hands gripping her chest. I was barely using it, but I knew what my dominance did to lesser werewolves like herself. A low grumble escaped my throat, and a whine escaped hers. Satisfied with her r

  • Bride Of The Lycan King   Before We Go

    Amber’s POV By the time I returned to the bedroom, I was exhausted. Mentally and emotionally. My emotions crashed over me like a tidal wave. I was feeling everything in ways I hadn’t felt before, and why was I feeling so bad about Alpha Dale with another woman? I blamed it on the mate bond. “Stupid!” I exclaimed, smacking myself in the face as if that was going to help me come to my senses. “Stupid, stupid, stupid.”He did not want me; it was obvious, yet why did I still feel so betrayed? I shouldn’t be expecting anything from him, yet I still did. He was the fucking Lycan King, and I was what? A wolf-less werewolf? A burden. Someone whom he pitied. I should leave, but this place was likely the only place to give me the answers I was searching for. Who the hell was I? A knock on the door silenced my thoughts, pulling me back to reality. “Dinner is served, Miss Amber. Janine wanted me to inform you.” A voice said from outside the door. I breathed a sigh. More like heartbreak

  • Bride Of The Lycan King   Precautions

    Dale’s POV When Amber said she felt better now compared to when she first came here, she was not lying. She looked better—healthier, stronger, more alive. Her cheeks were filled out, and her color was much brighter compared to the pale and haunted girl I had brought here months ago. Seeing her now, wide-eyed, glancing at Janine from across the seat, I could hardly reconcile her with the scared, jumpy girl with low self-esteem who was starved to the point where all that was left was skin and bones. Amber was no longer that girl, and my desire to keep her safe and out of harm’s way had caused me to ignore that. Ignore her growth. When I glanced at Amber again, her eyes were on me, and in them I saw all the questions she wanted to ask me. ‘Why did I release Yeti?’‘Was I thinking about giving her proposal a chance?’My wolf shot up at that thought. She wasn’t the only one eager to know what the response to that question was going to be. “Amber, my office when you are done wit

  • Bride Of The Lycan King   A Green Snake

    Amber’s POV I pushed the lobby door open, glancing back to see if Yeti was still following behind me. She was, her eyes darted around as if she was expecting someone to jump out of the shadows and attack her. I did not blame her, though; after what happened at Moonstone pack, that fear was a valid one. The lobby was empty at this time of the day. There were no omegas prancing around in corners going about their duties. There was no one coming in or leaving the mansion, save for the guards that were positioned stiffly at the entrances. There was no one. I glanced at Lyon, one of the men who were to be our new guards, and nodded. He nodded back and looked away, gesturing to the other two men to follow. Once they were out of the room, I turned to Yeti. “Alright. Do you want to tell me why you’re being nice to me? Ever since Moonstone, you saved my life, and now… what? ”Yeti glanced around the room. “I… I guess I was trying to make up for how I treated you back at Moonstone. ”

  • Bride Of The Lycan King   Strategy

    Amber’s POV I have no family? What did she mean by that? She couldn’t be taunting me. The finality and confidence in her voice said enough. So, how did Yeti know I had no family? And why was she so confident about it? How could she be so sure the man in that gallows was not my uncle or relative? I glanced at her, ready to throw all my questions at her when a guard stepped in front of us. “Alpha Dale has been expecting you.” He said stiffly. “If you will come with me.”Yeti followed first. I scowled but followed a few steps behind, keeping a little distance between us. I had come in here before, maybe more than once. But it was the first time I noticed the damp smell of moist earth and rust. The chilly air settles over my body like a second skin, chilling me to the bones. The guard stopped suddenly, putting out his hand to stop me.“I’m sorry, but you can’t go further; Alpha Dale only wants to see Yeti. ”I opened my mouth to protest, but both the guard and Yeti were gone bef

  • Bride Of The Lycan King   Ghosts of the Past

    Amber’s POV Alpha Dale was looking at me expectantly. After the whole interrogation, he had dismissed Yeti, demanding she return to her room—she now had a room in the mansion—and brought me to ours, maybe to be sure I heard the things he wanted me to hear. Did he know how awful I felt knowing that I had let my guard down? I had been foolish enough to believe the words of a stranger, and what I hated to think about the most was that even he was a stranger. All of them were strangers. What if they were all lying to me? Feeding me, caring for me, and helping me was all an elaborate lie I was being made to believe before they showed their true colors. Fattening up the cows before slaughter. I was the cow. I just didn’t know it. “What are you thinking about?” Alpha Dale, asked, startling me out of my thoughts. “You look like you’re about to bleed out of your face. I guess you heard the prisoner then? I’m sorry. ”He wasn’t sorry. Not in the least. If he could run it in, he wou

  • Bride Of The Lycan King   My Mistake

    Dale’s POV She was bleeding.The smile that had been on her face morphed into a frown that marred her delicate features. Her head lowered to her torso. From the look on her face, I could tell she couldn’t fully understand what was going on. Her breathing hitched, and her heart was beginning to race. Her fingers trembled as they touched her blood-soaked shirt, and she raised her hand to her face, staring at the crimson liquid that stained her fingertips as though it was the most fascinating thing she ever saw. “I’m… bleeding.” She gasped. Wide eyes looked up at me a second before her pupils rolled back and her body sagged forward. “Amber!” I jumped, catching her limp body before it collapsed completely. Panic surged through me, gripping me as tight as I gripped her. “Stay with me, Amber. Stay with me! ”They screamed, asking her body at the same time. Nothing. “Trent! I need you in my room now!” I shouted through the mind link. Thankfully, Trent replied immediately. “Dale? Wh

  • Bride Of The Lycan King   Witch Finder

    Dale’s POV I could not rest easy knowing that Amber was probably fighting for her life. Worse yet, she might be losing. Trent had done as I had asked, and now I could see Gregg in the interrogation room, sitting on his tail and probably wondering if it was his execution. I glanced at Yeti, who was fidgeting behind me. “Are you ready? ”Her frightened eyes lowered to the ground, but her head bobbed affirmative. “Yes.” She mouthed, wrapping her arms around herself. For a minute, she reminded me of Amber those first few weeks after her arrival. Their first smelt almost the same. Pushing the thought away, I pulled the door to the interrogation room and stepped in. Gregg’s eyes flickered towards me, darting from me to Yeti, then back to his hands on the table. Trent turned towards the entrance as well, eyeing Yeti before nodding in my direction. “I tried to ask him if there’s a way he can reach Derrick. I mean, since he’s on assignment here, there’s a possibility they agreed to meet so

  • Bride Of The Lycan King   Glamour

    Amber’s POV Days and nights blurred together and before I knew it, a week went by. Beta Trent and Eric spent the one week before the Culling training me even harder than Alpha Dale used to train me. and not just physically, my abilities were tested as well – as best as they could which wasn’t even scratch the surface deep, but at least I got to know that my abilities had something to do with manipulating emotions and elements. While Beta Trent and Eric spent the day sharpening my senses and helping me be more in tune with my wolf, I spent the night trying to suppress the growing ache in my chest whenever I thought of Alpha Dale – which was always. I found little consolation in talking to Athena – who I was getting to know more and more – and talking to the life forming inside me. On the seventh day, I didn’t feel the least ready but I still dressed in a black hoodie – Eric was sure would hide my face and Janine had gotten me a cream which would mask my scent – I pulled my long,

  • Bride Of The Lycan King   Harsh Reality

    Amber’s POV My heart pounded in my chest and my lungs constricted as I waited for Eric’s answer. There was a frown on his face as he pondered the question, then the frown deepened, and his lips pursed. “Who is Derrick?” he asked. “Am I supposed to know him?” I let out a breath I hadn’t even realized I was holding. But then, I realized if Yeti’s mother was now actively working with Donn, then it only meant Alpha Derrick was somewhere in the picture. Perhaps, behind the scenes, pulling the string and my airways constricted once more. “Derrick is the former Alpha of Moonstone pack and the man who raised Amber,” Beta Trent explained. “He’s Alpha Dale’s number one enemy.” Eric looked lost but he didn’t ask any further questions. Meanwhile, my mind was going through a lot of scenarios. What if Derrick had been working with Donn from the very beginning? What if he was the reason Donn came to Free City and brought the council with him? It was plausible and fit right into the puzzle. I

  • Bride Of The Lycan King   August Visitor

    Amber’s POV For the next three days, it was as though we were in denial. None of us wanted to talk about what had happened, nor even think about it, although it was my waking thought and the last thing I thought about before sleeping. We all wanted to forget about it. But I couldn’t forget Alpha Dale’s expressionless face as he stood beside Mallory with her hand in his. I couldn’t forget him chasing me through the woods and I sure as hell couldn’t stop thinking about the what ifs. What would have happened if he had caught me? Janine couldn’t forget about what role Yeti’s mother played in all of this, and although, I saw her trying to act indifferent, I knew how hard it was for her, seeing as Yeti was once a friend. Yeti… I had no idea what Yeti was thinking. She was quiet and closed off and never left her room except when it was time to eat. Beta Trent couldn’t forget about the fact that Alpha Dale’s uncle was now in control of Free city. Although, we didn’t say it out loud, o

  • Bride Of The Lycan King   Rescue & Reunion

    Amber’s POV I shifted back to my human form without even realizing it. “Janine?” I gasped, tears pouring from my eyes. Yeti and Beta Trent stood at a safe distance behind her and both heaved a sigh of relief. “How are you guys here? Beta Trent?” Taking off her jacket, Janine stepped forward and draped it on my naked form. Although the day was dark, I could still make out her pale face, hollow cheeks and bandaged hand. Yeti didn’t look any better. She had cuts and bruises everywhere, but her eyes were still filled with concern as she stared at me. “What the hell happened?” I whispered. “I saw the video. I thought you were –” Janine touched my arm lightly, as if trying to remind me that they were here and they were fine. “We’ll explain everything later,” she said, gently pushing me forward. ‘For now, let’s get out of here.” My eyes darted between all three of them and I felt as if a weight has been lifted off my chest. But my mind went back to Alpha Dale or the man I saw who was

  • Bride Of The Lycan King   Alpha Dale?

    Amber’s POV When I snapped back to reality, it wasn’t slow or gentle. My lungs ached with a burning sensation and my throat was raw. My limbs trembled with exertion and I was no longer on my knees. Instead, I was standing in the middle of what looked like a fucking war zone. Blood and carnage were everywhere – splattered across the concrete walls, soaking the ground, even dripping from a dangling broken light overhead that swung on its last thread. Coppery scent of blood filled the air, nearly suffocating. I staggered back, clutching my stomach as bile rose up in my throat. My entire body felt like it was on fire and my skin crawled. Did – did I do this? I glanced around the bloodied room, gasping when my eyes landed on Alpha Dale’s uncle. He laid a few feet away from me, crumpled and bleeding from… everywhere. His chest rose and fell in slow, shallow breaths. One arm was twisted at an unnatural angle, and a deep gash marred the side of his face. I looked down at my own hands

  • Bride Of The Lycan King   Losing Control

    Amber POV The hum of the car vibrated through my bones as we sped through the woods. I stopped counting the trees or time a long time ago. I was sure we were out of Free City and maybe in another Alpha’s territory, but we were still going. I did not said any words. Not even given the driver directions to where we could find Mallory, but he was still driving. I stopped thinking about everything as well. As long as this man was far from Janine and Yeti, it was enough for me. Alpha Dale’s uncle sat beside me and I could feel his unblinking gaze burning in the side of my face but I had made myself numb to that as well. “You’ve not spoken a word since,” he said suddenly. “Offering to lead me to a place which might not exist is very brave of you.” I raised a brow at him. There was something chilling about the way he observed me. it wasn’t like the look predators gave their preys, but like I was a puzzle he already solved. My heart hammered in my chest. Did he finally figure out my bl

  • Bride Of The Lycan King   The Execution

    Amber’s POV Alpha Dale’s uncle smirked at the stunned silence that followed his words. “Runaways.” He repeated with a mocking jest, rolling the word around on his tongue. “That’s the story. Alpha Dale’s precious mate ran away because she couldn’t stand her dangerous power. She couldn’t stand being a danger to him or anyone else. Of course, her friends went with her.” Janine lunged forward, but the guards held her back. “You sick, lying piece of—!” “Careful now,” he warned, his voice dangerously calm. “You don’t want to make your last hours more painful.” “Are you really going to kill us?” Yeti’s voice broke as she spoke. “You’ll kill Anber? Alpha Dale won’t let you get away with that. You should know— ”He glanced at Yeti impatiently. “Did I not mention Alpha Dale will never know? To him, you all ran away. But don’t worry, Amber here won’t be executed, if that’s what you’re worried about. ”He waved a dismissive hand, and the guards shoved us forward towards a black transport t

  • Bride Of The Lycan King   Imprisoned

    Amber’s POV It’s been three days since we were thrown in this cell. Three long, crawling, stinking days. None of us were saying it out loud, but today was the day. The day of the execution. On the first day of our imprisonment, Janine had nearly bitten the bars off. She had banged, screamed, cursed, clawed, threatened, and kicked until her voice was hoarse and her knuckles bled. I stopped her when she started yanking at the meat with her teeth. Usually, she was the most controlled of all of us, but the more the days went by, the more she lost a little of that control. Yeti looked like she was faring better than the rest of us. She said nothing and ate very little when they finally brought our rations, giving up her food for Janine, who only knocked her plates away. After hearing the things Yeti kept from us about her mother, she had decided she couldn’t trust the girl. As for me, I had no idea what to do or think. I had tried several times to reach Alpha Dale through our bond, b

  • Bride Of The Lycan King   Criminals

    Amber’s POV Izzy and Fabian threw me unceremoniously into the damp cell. I was fast enough to catch myself as I stumbled onto the stone floors, but I couldn’t say the same for Janine, whose sharp cry echoed through the cell as her knees scraped the ground. She muttered under her breath, cursing at the guards and whoever may have offended her. Yeti rushed to her side, trying to help her up, but she brushed Yeti away, breezing to the bars only to catch the guards back as they left. “A bunch of ungrateful fools.” She cussed out. “I can’t believe they’ll betray Alpha Dale like this. What did that old man promise them? What could be more expensive than their loyalty to their Alpha? ”I glanced at Yeti, who had settled herself in the corner with her back pressed to the wall. It was obvious that this was not her first time experiencing something like this. I bit my bottom lip, wondering just what this girl went through in that godforsaken pack. Janine paced like a caged animal; each sto
