Chapter 3  

   Kieran's POV 

   "Remind me again why I need to see a rogue?" I asked Caleb, my Beta, my voice sounding tired from being in a meeting all day combined with my Lycan’s restlessness.

   “Because you're the Alpha and we need you to decide what to do with her." 

    "What's there to decide? She's a rogue. Did she talk?” I asked. 

   He shook his head. “Not a word. Ryder suggested waiting for you. She was in a bad state when we brought her in.”

  I nodded and followed him towards the dungeon. A rogue entering our land wasn't a new thing. But over the last few years after I became Alpha, their attack became less frequent and I wanted to keep it like that.

    As a pack, we took pride in making sure that our members were safe at all times. 

   “Let's get this over with." I thought. Dealing with rogues was definitely my least favorite part of the day.

  As I approached the cell, my Lycan grew even more restless. He began to jump and dance around my head in excitement.

   "Mate, mate, mate!" he chanted, his voice a low, urgent whisper.

   I froze, we didn't have a mate. “Calm down, King." I said to my Lycan. “Should I remind you what happened the last time we smelled her?" 

  I felt him roll his eyes, “it was one time. But this time around, I'm sure she's the one." 

   "What's going on? Is something wrong?” Caleb asked, noticing the sudden change in my countenance. I ignored him as I hastened my pace. But he followed closely behind me.

   Over the years, I've accepted the fact that I didn't have a mate, having visited several packs to search for her to no avail. It could only mean that the moon goddess was punishing me for something I probably did.

   “Mate! Mate needs us." King said, a sense of urgency in his tone which was rare. We always had things under control. 

   His tone did nothing to calm me. Instead, I felt a jolt of concern, my mind racing with possibilities. What had happened to our mate? Who had hurt her?

And then, I saw her.

  She was sitting in the corner of the cell, her eyes fixed on the floor. She was barely clothed, with only a thin layer of underwear. Her arms wrapped around herself.

  King let out a low, rumbling growl, his anger and concern evident. I felt a surge of protectiveness, my instincts screaming at me to defend my mate.

  I took a step forward, my eyes locked on hers. She looked up, her gaze meeting mine, and I felt a jolt of recognition.

   “Mate." Her wolf mumbled, sounding weak and my Lycan was ready to snap the neck of whoever put hands on her.

    "Where the fuck are her clothes?” I growled, my voice coming out low and menacing. I struggled to keep my Lycan from coming out. The last thing I wanted in this situation was to scare my mate.

   “They didn't know that–”

  "Don't fuck with me, Beta." King snarled, forcing his way to the surface.

  “I'll have them kept in the dungeon. You take care of her.” He said, showing his neck in submission. If he wasn't concerned about my mate, we would be addressing how he spoke to us. But he was right, no one but us should be looking at her.

 I nodded and he left. I turned to face my mate, who had not moved an inch. 

  “She's cold, idiot." King said, snapping me out of my daze.

   Even as tired as she looked, she was stunning. Her curly hair was put in a bun, giving me a clear view of face. She has piercing green eyes that reminds me of the forest…of home.

    Taking off my shirt, I draped it around her and I felt her shiver lightly when my hand touched her skin. And fuck if she didn't look good in them.

   She barely weighed anything when I carried her in my arms up the stairs. I had so many questions, but none of them mattered at the moment.

   “What's your name?" I finally asked.

   We were in my room, I laid her on the bed while I knelt beside her. I already mind-linked the pack doctor to meet us here and also for the head cook to make something for her.

  “Kaia." She replied, not taking her eyes off me. That pleased, she was my equal and would be treated as one.

   “My name is Kieran Blackwell, but you can call me Kieran." 

    “What is this? A job interview? You should let me take charge now, you're embarrassing us." King mocked.

  “Shut up." 

   I gave up on ever finding a mate the moment I turned twenty-one and that was a year ago. I focused on my duty as an Alpha and the only people I had to deal with were the elders and other Alphas. And she looks so fragile.

    “I’ve asked the pack’s doctor to come take a look at you. Is there anything you need before he gets here?” She shook her head. 

   Nodding softly, I made my way to my wardrobe to pick a shirt for myself since I gave her mine.

   “She is looking at that! Let me out!" King growled, but I blocked him out. Not before a pleased look appeared on my face.

   "Did she like what she was seeing?”

   It didn't take long for the doctor to arrive with Caleb and Ryder coming in after him. 

    The doctor got to work, checking for any sign of external injury and everything else that needed to be checked. She was a little underweight and apart from the visible bruise on her wrist and a few scratches, there was nothing several nights of rest wouldn't fix.

  It was difficult knowing what actually happened because she wouldn't respond to any question. King was pacing around in my head, desperate to be let out.

   She soon fell asleep after taking a few spoons of the food that was prepared for her.

   “Did you find out anything about her?" I asked.

 "Nothing yet, but we'll keep digging.” Caleb assured me.

  “And we have those men in the dungeon, do you want to see them now?" Ryder asked. My head turned to Kaia, who was sleeping soundly.

   “I'll take care of that later." 

 I was still trying to wrap my head around the fact that I had a mate who was sleeping in my bed. They both left with plans to come back later.

    Kaia…even her name sounds perfect, slept for more than half of the day only waking up for water. Within that time, king and I came up with multiple scenarios that might have led her to become a rogue. 

   I blocked out everyone trying to mind-link me…mainly my mom. I was certain my Gamma, Ryder had spoken to her. But that was an issue for later.

     “You're up. How do you feel?" I asked, when my mate finally woke up.

  "I'm okay.”

    King was right, I was embarrassing.

  "You know who I am right?" I asked again, breaking the silence that filled the room. Her wolf did recognize us but I've barely felt her since then.

   She looked away.

  “I'm your mate." I told her as softly as I could, with a smile on my face. I wanted to be sure she had an idea what that meant. But her next sentence confirmed that she knew exactly what I was talking about.

   “Since you're going to reject me, just do it already.”

   This time, I couldn't stop King from taking over.

  • Claimed By The Lycan King    Mate

    Chapter 4 Kaia's POV As soon as the words left my lips, I regretted it. His piercing blue eyes were nowhere to be found, instead his wolf forced its way to the surface. I curled myself on the bed, bracing for rejection. For Kieran to tell me that I was right, that he didn't want me as his mate. Instead he moved away from me and out of the door. His footsteps faded down the hallway and I felt a pang of uncertainty. “Why did I have to say anything?" I thought. "Was I going back to the dungeon?” I asked myself since my wolf decided to play hide and seek with me. Since I heard her in the dungeon, I've been trying to call out to her but there was no response and it was killing me. "Why is my life such a tragic story?” I thought. First, I lost the only person who cared about me and then my father married a woman whose son hated my very existence but was also the reason I escaped from my mate who threw me in the dungeon. And now, another Alpha was claiming me as his mate

  • Claimed By The Lycan King    Dinner with a side of Tension

    Kaia's pov "No, no no." My words played in my head again and again as I stared at him, my heart racing. “Did he just…?" "Yes, yes he did!" My wolf danced in excitement in my head, but I was pale with shock, my lips part in surprise. "Why?" I asked, my eyes finally drifted to meet with his blue ones, and my throat felt like there was a huge lump in there. He wore a puzzled look, “Why what?” He asked. He inched closer, and my heart stopped. Maybe he was joking, maybe this was a plan to make me look stupid like Aiden did. “Are you accepting me now so you can reject me later or you just want me close enough because your Lycan needs his mate?” I snapped before I could stop myself. And I have been doing a lot of it lately. Kaieran's eyes squinted a little before returning to their normal size, and creased lines appeared on his forehead. “Of course not, Kaia." My name rolled off his lips softly. “I'm accepting you because you are my mate, the only one who will complete me. Wh

  • Claimed By The Lycan King    Fears and Doubts

    Chapter 6Kieran’s POV “How can someone be so effortlessly beautiful?" I wondered, “all she did was stand and I lost my ability to make a complete sentence without making myself look like an idiot." "With a face and body like that, whoever rejected her is the real idiot.” King's words echoed in my mind and I couldn't help but agree. Whoever he was, did us a favour. But I hated that she had to go through so much pain to become ours. A picture of the bruises on her body crossed my mind and a growl left my lips. “Whoever did that to her was going to pay." My thoughts were interrupted when I got to my chambers where Caleb and Ryder were waiting for me. Their heads snapped to me, confusion written on their faces since it has only been a few minutes since I left. "Alpha, do you need something?” Caleb asked, his brows furrowed. I shook my head and sat on the chair opposite him. The only person who could give me what I wanted was in my room and still isn't sure if she wo

    Kaia's POV I groaned, slowly opening my eyes. However, my heart skipped a beat when I noticed Kieran sitting on the bed beside me with his eyes fixed on me. "What the fuck is he doing here?!" I screamed inwardly, trying to steady my breath. He was staring at me, but in a moment, he spoke. "Good morning," his gentle voice rang, and my wolf purred. “I can't believe that even now she was turned on." but I lowered my head, and remained concerned about why he was seated there. "He probably spent the night here. Can't you smell his scent all over the room?" My wolf spoke, but I remained quiet, trying to steady my breath. "He greeted you, don't just stay silent, say something!" My wolf urged, and I instantly shut her up."Stop being pushy!" She kept quiet just as I had told her, and I heaved before raising my eyes to meet his gaze. "G-good morning." Somehow, my response seemed to light him up because he smiled, but it didn't really matter, so I tried to lower my head when

    Kaia's POV Dani's energy was unmatched. We ran into a few people…literally and when they complained, she glared at them like it was their fault. As we stepped into the Mall's spacious interior, it felt like we were in a different dimension. People moving around with different agendas. Everyone was talking about on the top of their voice making everywhere a bit noisy but at the same time, peaceful. “We're going to start with dresses and I know just the perfect store." Dani said. I heard Kieran’s voice before I could respond, “hey." He called softly. "Get as many things as you want, okay?” He continued when I turned back. I managed to nod before Dani pulled me away. “With a body like yours, I'm going to enjoy dressing you up.” "I don't…I don't think so." All I heard about my body was how fat I was and how men were going to find me unattractive. And now, in less than a day of knowing me, she'd complimented me more than anyone close to me. “This is going to be perfe

    Chapter 9Kaia's POV For a moment, Kieran's entire body froze as my hands came around him, but he soon snapped out of it as he held me closer. I had been so scared that he was going to do something to me. And couldn't be more grateful that Kieran showed up when he did. My chest was beating really fast, like I'd just finished a marathon race. “I'm so sorry, Bella.” Kieran whispered, his breath warm against my ear. His hand tightened around me and I felt a lump form in my throat. I shook my head softly, “it's not your fault.” I told him, my voice barely above a whisper. "I shouldn't have left you by yourself, I'm sorry.” he apologized again. I was going to tell him not to apologize for something he has no control over, but my wolf’s voice stopped me. “He's already beating himself up for not being by your side and King is threatening to cut the man into pieces. You should try to calm him down.” She advised before retreating to the back of my mind. I let go of him s

  • Claimed By The Lycan King    Moment of Clarity

    Chapter 10 Kaia's POV A man about Kieran's height entered the room, his hair was packed in a bun and he had a smile that could light up the world. His brown eyes stayed on me for a few minutes before Dani snapped him out of it. “Keep looking at her and soon, you'll be missing them." She warned. “And it'll be worth it." He said, before walking towards me and stretching his hand, “my name is Ryder, Luna." He introduced himself. At this point, I doubt asking them to stop calling me that would make any difference, so I've accepted that. “Kaia." I told him, taking his hand. “We are going to be good friends, Luna. I have so many stories to tell you about the Alpha, but only if you promise to save my head later." This brought a smile to my face, “I can't promise you that." I found myself saying. “I'll do it anyway." He said, a large grin on his face. "I really shouldn't be here.” Dani groaned, if anything, making me more curious about him, his life before I came her

  • Claimed By The Lycan King    The Calm After

    Kieran's POV The day has been so stressful, but looking at how much Kaia enjoyed herself, the smile on her face, it was definitely worth it. Although King and I still felt angry thinking about the man who almost made her cry but he was human, and there was nothing we could do about it that wouldn't expose our identity to their world. “He shouldn't be alive right now.” Ryder growled, equally angry when I told them what happened. "That'll risk exposing us. I'll gather details about him. I'll let you know when I find something.” Caleb offered and I nodded, trusting his discretion. It was only normal for them to want to protect her and they would do so whatever the cost. Apart from the position they hold in the pack, they were the only ones I could trust to take care of her. “She's really beautiful, Alpha. It's only a matter of time before she opens up to you." Ryder said, “she did seem interested when I was telling her everything about you…” King growled, "what did

    Chapter 104 Dylan's POV If there was a conversation I was dreading, it was the one I was going to have in a few minutes when Allie walks through the door…it was inevitable. For me, the relationship started as a way to mess with Ryder but I couldn't say the same anymore. Although, a part of me knows that she was never mine in the first place, having seen the way that she looked at him and it was fine…he was one lucky son of a bitch. I could also see the efforts he was putting into talking to her which she ignores most of the time. The door swung open and Allie entered wearing her signature smile that was bright enough to throw any man off their feet. “Let me tell you,” She began, "if Kieran changes his mind on letting tag along to this Alphas’ event, I'm going to throw a tantrum.” I let out a chuckle, easing the tension in my chest. "You're not supposed to be there in the first place.” She rolled her eyes, "and you think I don't know that?" She asked, and I raised

    Chapter 103 Unknown POV -Nessa “It's the Luna, she's the healer." I told Felix, entering the cabin we usually met in and I watched as his jaw clenched. “Kieran's mate is a healer? The white wolf?" I mean I was surprised as well, considering how long I've tried to figure out what secret they were hiding. Using the poison on myself was a risk I took but with my stepmom being unable to shut her mouth, I didn't want to delay it anymore. Felix needed to get his plan moving…and for the first time, he decided to involve me. Besides, playing the sweet innocent girl was becoming exhausting. I probably should've come up with a better excuse than not feeling well…but how was I supposed to know that she was going to snoop around looking for my house. “Because she's not the bad person.” My subconscious mind told me. So…it wasn't like I had anything against Kaia, she's nice and all, maybe too trusting. But she was the easiest and fastest way to get to Kieran and then to his

  • Claimed By The Lycan King    A New Life Unveiled

    Chapter 102Kaia's POV The four of us agreed to go to the city and Kieran made sure Edward and Dylan went with us but not after giving them several warnings to keep us safe. I'm certain he was letting us go because he wanted to make up the incident with his parents and even it was needed, it was very much appreciated. Ryder sulked that he wanted to be the one to go instead of Dylan but he changed his mind when Kieran glared and the memory of the last time we went together filled my head. And he definitely wasn't going because he wanted to keep us safe or anything, Allie still hasn't given him the chance to talk. It was no surprise when a few hours into the shopping, I was tired. But Nessa was having fun so it was worth it. The gloomy expression was long gone and a permanent smile was in its stead. “Which girl gets tired of shopping? Don't you guys survive on that?" Dylan asked, a bit of teasing in his voice. I rolled my eyes, “tell that to my legs that feels like the

    Chapter 101 Kaia's POV The walk to wherever Alpha Tyler was taking me to didn't take long and I recognized the pathway from the last time I ran after Kieran and speaking of him, I should probably tell him what I was doing. But a part of me was actually relaxed…it might be wrong, but I knew that nothing they said would get me to leave Kieran again. Not this time. “I really love you…” Lylah started, and I could sense a but coming. "but you can be dumb sometimes.” My jaw dropped, I didn't even have time to respond to her insult before she continued. "You're willingly walking into the den of the enemies, that's not exactly called taking caution. How do you think our mate is going to feel when he finds out you're here without your bodyguard?” I couldn't contain my shock seeing how she'd never spoken to me in this manner before. And I knew better than to ignore it. “I'm sorry, Lylah." I apologized, promising to tell him. And she just nodded but didn't say anythi

  • Claimed By The Lycan King    The Untold Story

    Chapter 100Kaia's POV It was still hard to believe that Maria would do something like that and when Kieran questioned her after the said boyfriend…Jake died from the poison, she broke down and admitted that he had been looking for the potion made from the iron bloom flower. She claimed that he told her that it was the last time he was going to get involved with the group and she believed him, hence the reason she was trying to cover up after him. Knowing that it wasn't that, helped keep my mind at ease even though I still had Edward following me around sometimes. He was different from the first one, and he isn't as stiff either. “Good thing Alpha got rid of her…I can't believe she would implicate Ashley for something she didn't do.” Dani said. Allie nodded, "I know right! What happened to girls supporting each other?” “She was probably absent when that was taught.” I joked and the three of us laughed. Nessa wasn't around today, she mentioned something

    Chapter 99 Luna Clarissa’s POV (Kieran's mom) I was struggling to keep a calm facade, the secret I've fought so hard to keep was the same one Kieran was trying to pull apart. If he finds out, it would not only break my mate, it'd ruin me. It was a secret I swore to take to my grave. “Are you okay? Your emotions are all over the place." Tyler, my mate said, his hands wrapped around me, it was just like when we were younger. I nodded softly, “I'm okay." I lied. “It's just hard to believe that my own son would turn his back on me." That was true but all for what? A girl who should be nothing more than a slave if I was being generous. “Let's give him time, she's his mate after all…and you know how protective he is when it comes to Allie.” There was no denying their closeness, but it was for them. Everything I was doing, was for their benefit. Allie was almost twenty one and still hadn't found her mate and I was only looking out for her. "Don't think too much a

    Chapter 98Kieran's POV "I found something, Alpha.” Dylan said, and I nodded for him to come in, which he did, taking the seat in front of me. “Ashley?" I asked, resting my back as I waited for him to start talking. “I found her, but she didn't do it." He started, “she agreed that she has a grudge against Kaia…Luna but she swore that she didn't do it.” Ignoring the slip off, I frowned. "That doesn't prove that she didn't do it.” I pointed out, a feeling of disappointment seared through me. I had expected that he was coming with something concrete and not speculation. "It doesn't. But when I asked her about the fight with Maria, she went quiet.” Now, my interest was piqued as he continued, “they were arguing about a boy…” "Hold on…" I interrupted, massaging my temple gently to soothe the headache I knew was coming. “How did we go from solving a break in to boy issues?” I asked him. He chuckled lightly, “They weren't fighting because they loved the same guy, it

    Chapter 97Kieran's POV (there's a little mention of violence) The shooters weren't healing as fast as I wanted them to, so we had the pack doctor look at them and they were starting to get better. But with the break in our room, Kaia was on the edge so she was back to having a bodyguard. After her panic attack last night, I knew we had to speed up what we had to do to get to the real person behind the attacks and the shooting. “Alpha, they're ready to talk." Caleb's voice rang in my head. I was already on my way to them, so I hastened my pace. King was eager to get to them also. After watching our mate go through pain, it only fueled our determination. The three men were all kneeling with their hands tied up with ropes that had been dipped in wolfsbane. Their groaning and the sounds of whips against their skin filled the dungeon. I guess they didn't like the taste of their own medicine. "Who do you work for?” I asked. The three of them looked at each other and

    Chapter 96 Kaia's POV Maria remained frozen like a deer caught in the headlights, a few of my dresses in her hands and her eyes didn't leave mine. I stood there, trying to comprehend what was going on, but I couldn't go past the mess made. “What happened to my things?" I asked, moving around, trying to pick my things, especially my underwear which were laying everywhere in the room. “I-I didn't d-do it.” She stammered, "I was coming in to c-clean up but I met the mess." She explained. At this point, I could already feel anger building up inside me. Maria had always been efficient, doing everything that was asked of her, and had never given me a reason to be suspicious of her. But considering the fact that the room was locked and if I needed her to clean up, I would have given her the key or something. After having a long day, the last thing I wanted to deal with was this. “Maria," I called calmly, “you want me to believe that you somehow managed to get into my loc
