Bride of the Lycan King Chapter 20
The back of my legs was aching. I had difficulty breathing and it felt like my vision would fade to black at any moment. But the pain in my left arm wouldn't let me rest. I forced myself to stand straight. My entire world shifted as my foot hit the ground again. My knees buckled and I struggled to catch myself on one arm. The pain flared even worse when I tried to stand upright again.Twenty minutes was starting to feel like an eternity. So many girls had fallen behind me, some were injured, and barely mobile just like myself. The roars of the crowd seemed to echo in my ears. It was hard to concentrate. We had less than ten minutes left and I hadn't set my sights on the finish line. I lifted my head to catch sight of Paige. Her hair was a tangled mess around her face, and tiny bruises littered her skin from the hit she had taken moments ago, but her eyes still shone with determination and concern,"The blade cut you deep," She offered me a hand which I gratefully accepted, "We have to

"You're joking!"I was halfway out of the room but Paige's hold on my wrist kept me rooted on my spot. My throat bobbed in a tight swallow, and I fought to get air into my lungs. "Let me go. I have to go speak to her." My gaze was firmly set on the cerulean-coloured curtains surrounding us. I tugged against her iron-clad grip, but she was strong, too strong for my feeble attempt. "You're insane! You passed already! You won, why can't you just accept it!?" The emotion in her voice startled me and I looked over my shoulder at her. She was biting her lip hard enough to draw blood but her eyes were glassy with unshed tears. My heart squeezed painfully as I wondered why she was upset, we hadn't even known each other that long but she was willing to risk her victory for my safety,Why?I opened my mouth to explain, but the words caught in my throat. In truth, I didn't know what to say, I couldn't tell her the truth...however, I couldn't find it in me to lie either. So I remained silent.

I had no clue where he was taking me. Heck! I didn't even know anything about the man, but I trusted him, I trusted the reassuring smile he kept throwing at me over his shoulder, the way he gently squeezed my wrist as if telling me that I would be fine. I trusted him and I didn't know if that was a wise decision.We were far away from the West Court now, even from the main Palace, with only trees and shrubs stretching out into a thick canopy of greenery, a forest I hadn't even known Castle Black possessed. The trees were tall, their branches heavy with blossoms and leaves that swayed in the cool breeze. It smelled fresh, almost like a field after rain. A soft, gentle wind tickled the back of my neck. It felt so relaxing… so right. We walked for a while, and my ankle protested with every step but I told myself it would be worth it,Finally, we reached a clearing and a shocked gasp escaped when I realized what I was staring at. My gaze flickered to his grinning face, a proud look on his

"Theo."The name slipped out of my lips in a chant, and his hand tightened its hold around my waist. My heart pounded erratically, I was sure he could feel them. I couldn't breathe, my brain felt like it had short-circuited, and my gaze remained fixated on him,Theo "You-" He started to say but the rest of his statement died off, his eyes becoming unfocused. Confused, I pulled back to examine him, his ears were twitching back and forth, his brows furrowed in concentration."Theo?" I called and he blinked, emotion returning to those chocolate-brown orbs. "Is something wrong?""No," He whispered, then shook his head, "No, nothing's wrong." He added, making his voice firmer.I closed my eyes, relishing in the feel of his fingers trailing across my face. He pulled back, the water swishing along with his movements I let my eyes snap open and the look on his face told me what I needed to know,"You have to go, don't you?"He looked sheepish and the sight of him like that unfurled a stran

"I have to go. Where's my phone?"I was agitated, my mind racing in fear. I made to leave the room when her voice stopped me,"You're leaving? like that?"I backtracked to the doorway, staring down at her with a frown. One look at my outfit told me what she meant, part of the dress had dried and although the jacket covered much, I still looked like a freak. "Take a shower first." Paige motioned to the open door with her head. I chewed on my bottom lip, pondering whether or not it would be better to take a bath now. Deciding it was wise, I sighed, walked towards the bathroom,Dahlia could wait. I took a bath and had dinner with Paige and some other girls. She shared some funny stories that almost made me forget my situation...almost. I cleared my plate within minutes and gave them a silly excuse about wanting to call my family to break the good news. They'd cheered me up, saying they had done the same thing. The moment I stepped into the garden, for a minute I thought I saw Theo

The hushed murmurings of the room slowly grew in volume until they reached a deafening level which caused me to bite hard on my lower lip. After crying myself to sleep last night, I woke up with a nasty migraine and my head throbbed from the noise in the hall. We were unceremoniously woken up from our slumber by the loudspeakers in our room, urging us to gather downstairs for very important information.So here we were, gathered into one huge crowd this morning, and none too happy about it either."Do you think she's ever gonna talk?" Paige questioned, her gaze pinned on the auburn-haired beauty standing on the podium across from us.I rubbed the heels of my palm against my forehead, groaning slightly, "I don't know, Paige." She patted my back sympathetically. "Do you think they'll have some ibuprofen at the infirmary?" "I'm sure they will." I gave her a small smile and she returned the gesture. "Can I have your attention, everyone?" Lady Sarah clapped her hands, gaining the attentio

A crazed scream cut through the air, startling everyone. Paige paused the braiding on my hair and I looked toward the source of the noise, Bree was standing at the foot of her bed, her clothes littered all over the ground and a crazed look in her eyes. "Who took it!? WHO!!!?" She swiveled to face us, her dark gaze passing over everyone. Jessica was leaning against the window, phone in hand and a bored expression on her face. Cora was sitting cross-legged on her bed, a laptop resting on her lap and her eyebrows cocked high. Bree's dark-haired friend, Diana, had a weary countenance, as she watched Bree."What are you looking for, Bree?" Diana asked slowly, rising to stand beside the fuming girl. "My necklace!" She yelled, turning to flip her suitcase over, the item landed with a thud on the carpeted ground. "The diamond-encrusted one my father gave me for my last birthday! It's gone!" She faced us once more, pointing an accusatory finger in our direction, "I know one of them too

I let my head fall to the ground, my icy blonde hair hung like a curtain shielding my face. It didn't protect me from the vile whispers of the crowd as I passed, the soldiers hold on my arms was unrelenting and it made my muscles throb painfully but I couldn't complain,I had no right to.We arrived at the top floor and I frowned as we approached the familiar mahogany doors. They ushered me into the room, and my wandering eyes took in the beautiful red carpet that covered the center of the room, the chandeliers that hung above my head, the pale wood-paneled walls, and the grand piano in the corner.I was too absorbed in the magnificence of the room to notice when the two guards had left, locking me alone in the office. I moved towards the piano and ran my fingers along the smooth wooden surface. It was beautiful.Dahlia had a piano back home too, she played well, even winning an award last month for the best pianist in our pack. I'd always watched her, hiding behind the stairs or peek

Bride of the Lycan King Epilogue
|SIX YEARS LATER|Castle Black, Pack Black Haven(Capital city).Another chapter. Another day, combined with hours of waiting and anticipating his return. It is cold, dreadfully so and it seems like no matter the amount of layers I put on, I will still remain frozen. Maybe it is because I am pregnant but Paige says I should keep warm, so the child wouldn't end up a white wolf as his mother. But I am doubtful, the doctor already said that one of the children will take on my gene, I only wonder who."Your highness!"Today, I had nothing important to do, asides settling a dispute between two neighbours who claimed ownership over a goat. Unlike what I'd expected, a Queen didn't have much duties asides making sure that the capital was in order. It took months to help the beggars on the streets and even longer to put an end to alleyway bag thiefs. I had to persuade the council to fund an open house for the poor and needy plus two orphanages as well."Your Highness!!"At first, they were skep

Gorgeous.The girl staring back at me was so unbelievably gorgeous, it shocked me to the core. Her snow blonde hair was thrown over a shoulder in beautiful waves, golden flowers were pinned in different angles of her head. Her ruby red lips would put the colour of blood to shame and kohl-rimmed eyes blinked back at me."You are truly stunning, Luna Emma," The voice from behind me was almost starling and I tore my eyes away from my reflection to stare at Lady Calloway who had an expression of awe etched on her features.I smiled grimly, looking back at the mirror. The gown I wore was a shimmering blue, the same shade as her eyes. Although she truly looked stunning, her lips were pulled down into a small frown.I blew out a heavy breath, twisting around to face the woman in front of me, "Do you really think I would be a good Queen?" I asked hesitantly, chewing on the inside of my cheek.Lady Calloway smiled gently, crouching and placing a palm above my hand, "I think you will make a gr

I stirred on the bed, stretching my limbs with a pop. My eyelids fluttered open, lips parting to release a drawn out yawn,I winced softly, rubbing my exposed tummy. My vision was a bit blurry and I squinted when I turned towards the window, the bright morning light shining in my direction."You're awake," I whipped in the direction of the voice, my lips pulling into a lazy smile. Theo walked around the bed towards my end and leaned to press a soft kiss on my head. He was still shirtless but had donned on a different pair of pants that looked a little bit oversized. His hair was messy on top of his head and there was a twinkle in his eyes, one I hadn't seen before. "Sleep good?" I shook my head, pointing between my legs, "I feel sore," My voice came out as a small whine causing him to huff out a short laugh."I knew you would say that, hence I prepared a warm bath for you,."I frowned at his statement. Warm bath?My question was brought to a cease when he moved his hands beneath my

The hem of my robe dragged across the floor as I walked, the candle was resting perfectly on the inside of my palm and I had to keep from wincing every time the hot wax dropped on my skin. It was dark, the moon hadn't fully risen yet all we had as illumination was the dim light of the bulbs overhead and the large rose-scented candles in our grip.The lady in front stopped suddenly, causing all of us to grind to a halt. She turned to look at me and for a moment, the corner of her lips curled upwards. Lad Calloway nudged her head towards the close door,"This is his chamber, wait inside until he comes." I inhaled deeply before expelling the air. In one swift motion, I turned towards the door and tipped my chin in a confident manner,"Open it," I said, my determined gaze set on the embellishments on the wooden entrance.Tonight was the night everyone had been anticipating, including me. The mating ceremony was a revered ritual among us, it was when two people either chosen or fated mate

I took in a deep breath after explaining, watching warily for his reaction. His face was gloom and drawn tight, there was a little furrow between his brows which meant that he was still digesting everything.Finally, he exhaled before shifting to properly look at me, "Why didn't you tell me? I would've ripped the bastard's head right off."I smiled wryly, tightening our conjoined fingers together, "Trust me, I wanted to do that too. I debated if killing was the best idea and then choose not to do it.""Why?" He asked curiously and I chuckled softly, bumping my shoulders against his."Because," I started, drawling in a tired manner, "For people like Hansen, their lives matter less to them but their prestige on the other hand?" I shook my head, "That's what their entire world is built upon." Theo hummed thoughtfully, his eyes glazing over. Suddenly he smiled brightly, throwing an arm over my shoulder, "I'm glad I have such a smart mate."I rolled my eyes, stifling the giggle that was t

I stared at my reflection in the large mirror, my fingers playing with the silk robe tied around my waist. After the whole contest yesterday, I was brought into the Queen's quarters and was given strict instructions not to leave there until instructed. Apparently, I had to be cleansed and purified before the mating process began.The dowager had asked me to phone my family and order them to be on their way so they would make it in time for the coronation. That was this morning and I haven't picked up my phone yet,"Black looks good on you,"I flinched, whipping around to face the intruder. Theo was casually leaning against the wall, arms crossed against his chest and a serious look in his eyes,I frowned, puzzled by his appearance, "How-when did you get here?"He shrugged, pushing himself from the wall and stalking towards me, "A while back,"I sighed and turned to face the morrow away, my fingers still fiddling with the knot in front. When he wrapped his large arms around my waist, I

"Should I be scared or nervous?"I gave the man a grim smile, pushing the small cup of tea towards him before grabbing my own. I gingerly took a sip, savoring in the warm sweetness that invaded my tongue instantly,"Which one of the two do you think is more appropriate?" I asked, arching a brow when he pushed his cup away, a small gesture but one I caught nonetheless.I gave him a look, one he not-so-politely ignored, clearing his throat loudly, "I don't quite know, you're no longer a contestant anymore but the mate of the Alpha and future Queen of the entire werekind. It would be stupid not to feel some amount of petrification." My lips curled and I slowly placed the cup back on the table, smacking my lips together, "I'll be straight with you, Lord Hansen," That piqued his attention causing him to lean nearer, "I called you here for one specific reason,"Something akin to uneasiness flashed in his eyes but he quickly concealed it with a cocky smile, "Do tell," "Jessica." I said si

When I was younger, I always wished that I would get like my sister's colour of wolf. Dahlia was my role model, everything she did, I copied and she loved it too so it was only natural that I got her colour. But sometimes, in the secret I would wish for my mother's colour too, hers was a beautiful grey and I loved the way the fur looked underneath the moonlight. Never in my life would I imagine being a white wolf. A wolf so powerful, they were regarded as too much for the werekind. A wolf so special, they were rare to find.So why, why did the moon goodness find me fit to become one?My eyes flew open, burning so bright and powerful. It felt like the sun was scorching me from inside and I couldn't help it. A piercing scream ripped its way from my chest and I curled into myself,My wolf emerged like lightning, spearing through my entire system. My eyes flew open and I shook my head but I realized that I wasn't in my human form anymore.Jessica looked stunned, her jaw was hanging open

The arena was filled to the brim, I was very much certain of that. They had used the same place as the first round where we had to go through different obstacle courses, the same place where I had purposefully broken my leg in a bid to avoid what I was presently doing.I looked around me, at the wild crowd cheering and crying. Their sentences almost inaudible since they were all yelling at once, excitement and tension pooled in my stomach,My eyes met my opponent's but she wasn't focused on me, her gaze was on the crowd. She was smiling and waving at them as though they were chanting for her, probably they were I couldn't hear anything either ways. I wondered if Lord Hansen had told her that his plan had flopped and there was nothing holding me back now. I wondered if she knew just how dangerous I could be once I shifted."Werewolves and shewolves," Lady Calloway spoke through the loud microphone that carried her voice round the entire auditorium. "The moment we have finally been wai
