Chapter 15

I halted cold stricken to my roots. My knuckles whitened, subconsciously clenching the bucket and mopstick. Thompson noticed my tensed state, and it gave him the drive speak further.

‘‘You weren't with him in the restroom, were you?’’ The overlapping suspicion in his voice forced a lump of saliva down my oesophagus.

Thompson suddenly let out a silly chuckle, almost immediately. “What am I saying, there's no way you could have been in the same restroom with him.’’

“And why is that?’’ Annalise's arms dropped. Basically, she had been enjoying the show until now.

“Because why the hell?’’ Thompson yelled.

He seemed as though he battled with his thoughts against any possibilities of what Annalise claimed. He refused to accept it even though he found it plausible.

“You both have obviously lost it. I have nothing to say.’’ I managed to spill in one breath.

It took a dare from my adrenaline hormones to stop myself from dashing out of the study.

Once the door shuts after me, I race

  • Fated for the Lycan   UNDERRATED

    Chapter 16Alessia's pov We arrived at the mansion. What was I thinking, anticipating a crowd of Lycans surrounded by the gates to welcome my convoy?Regal swerved the car under the parking port. I spotted two men at the entrance, unmistakable awaiting my arrival. It almost tugged my mind why Lycan Cyril wasn't among them, but I shook it off immediately, looking away from them as Regal pulled the car open for me. He led the way towards the two men who upon close view, I recognised to be Lycan Cyril second and third in command. “Welcome. The King is at the lounge, I'll take you to him.’’ One of the men spoke, turning around before I could utter any words. The second man followed suit. “Luna.’’ Regal swung his hands after them, hindering the urge for me to cuss out at the fact that they literally just disregarded my beta. I followed quietly, my palms clenched in a sweaty fist as I watched their proceeding frames. I knew they were superior to us, but a little act of acknowledgemen

    Chapter 17Alessia's pov The twinkling stars in the dark night sky was a serene sight to behold. Actually, nothing was so special about it aside that it helped to dissipate the raving scorn that feasted on my nerves for hours now.Despite my absurd resolve to perambulate the mansion all afternoon in hopes of catching Lycan Cyril’s return, it all came out to nothing. It burned my soul. Especially when that foolish smirk always crawled on Lance's lips each time we walked into each other. Lycan Cyril sure gave him a treat, abandoning our conversation like that, didn't he?I huffed, walking out of the balcony. A glass of fine wine should do the deal, or I might not be able to catch a good sleep tonight. The chandeliers committed perfectly to their jobs, providing lights in every nook and cranny of the mansion even down to the basement. It was almost impossible to believe the world outside was in fact black. I approached the cellar and it hit me that it was probably locked by now. It

    Chapter 18**Alessia's povI passed the empty tray of dishes over to Melanie who received it with a bow. Once I was left alone again, I decided to place a call to Eliza. I listened to the line ring continuously without connecting. I was going to make my third attempt when Melanie returned. ‘’Excuse me, my lady. Someone is here to see you.’’ She reported, her gaze downwards.My heart missed a beat. Has Lycan Cyril taken the lead to come and see me? I was barely in decent clothing. “Who is it?’’ I inquired.The door swung open before Melanie could respond, snatching both our attention. My eyes literally popped, but my shock switched to stun when Astrea showed up instead.“Good morning, Alessia.’’ She beamed, flickering her fingers at me. What the hell was she doing here?Before I could comprehend anything, she came in and was standing right before me.“May I have a seat?’’ “Uh…em sure.’’ I swallowed hard, adjusting on the bed for her. She sat, her gaze trailing around the room, lea

    Chapter 19Alessia's pov I was going to release a heavy scoff as scorn ate up to my cheeks, but the whiff of sandalwood scent crossing my nostrils caught air in my windpipe. Approaching footsteps echoed, unmistakably belonging to Lycan Cyril. I swivelled around to the direction he came, and I almost doubted my instincts when I saw two figures advancing instead. “Cyril.!’’ Astrea squealed, skimming over to give him a hug already. Lycan Cyril’s eyes briefly met with mine but I cut the contact immediately, looking away from them— not without the upsetting picture of his hand firmly gripping Astrea's waistline, etched in my head. “Hey! You didn't show up for breakfast, why is that?” I could imagine a scowl on Astrea's face without having to look.“Not now.’’ His tone, low and throaty, regarded her, almost causing a drip between like legs.“I just missed you.’’ Astrea mumbled like an offended toddler. I didn't miss the fact that they were now just a few inches from me. My grudging he

    Chapter 20Dinner was quiet. And it would have been fine if it was just quiet but tension shook the air. Astrea refused to say a word, very not like her. Probably because she was aware of the situation between I and Lycan Cyril, and she didn't support my action. “Excuse me.’’ I stood. I avoided Lycan Cyril’s direction the whole time, but somehow my gaze swatted at him. A sharp pain knotted my chest to see that he barely even spared a glance. “You're done?’’ Astrea asked. I managed a nod and pushed my way out. Why did it hurt so much? I'd been the one ignoring him after all and I should be happy he was now returning the energy. I didn't go to my suite. I couldn't go there. Not with my head in a spin and my system reacting against my wish. I strolled down to the cellar, grabbed myself a bottle of wine to drown my feelings. I gulped down the first content in one goal. Poured out another and just as the rim of the glass reached my lips, the door creaked open. My heart skipped in fe

  • Fated for the Lycan   FOREARM

    Chapter 21Lycan Cyril.I darted my eyes to meet hers, seriousness and determination etched in her beautiful brown eyes. I sighed, shook my head, and returned to my almost empty glass. “I'm dead serious right now.’’ She gritted. “Don't be silly, Astrea.’’ I scoffed, downing the last content before getting on my feets. Astrea rushed to block my path before I could move, but what I didn't expect was grabbing me into a hug. Within seconds, she pulled back and slammed her lips on mine in a rigorous kiss.I gently tried to pull away, but she wasn't planning to let go. I didn't want to hurt her. Astrea was more than just a friend to me. If I hadn't grown up with the knowledge that my fated mate has been specially distinguished with a certain feature, I'd have fallen in love with her at some point in our friendship. She was beautiful, sweet, elegant, and hailed from a strong Lycan bloodline. She possessed everything that fit the position of my Queen.“Stop.’’ I caught her wrist as she tr

    Chapter 22Alessia's povMy pulse echoed against my ears, afraid of what Lycan Cyril’s response would be. I was sure I heard a gasp at the door. “What are you talking about?’’ His eyes were still as harsh as they were when he carelessly yelled aloud seconds before. He was clearly oblivious of what I was talking about. Taking quick calculated steps to the door, I leaned my ear against it but not a sound. I ignored my panicking heart and summoned some courage to pull it open, but there was not a single soul in sight. I was pretty sure I heard someone behind the door.Lycan Cyril suddenly snatched my arm, pulling me back and slamming the door shut. He locked it before facing me. “You have plans to make our connection a public knowledge now?’’ “Someone heard us, I pretty sure of it.’’ I panicked. “You can't be outside starting 8pm that night.’’ He blurted out. ‘‘What?’’ I caught his gaze.Somewhere deep in the hollow of my stomach, I appreciated his pretty caramel orbs.

    Chapter 23Alessia's pov “Uhh.’’ I chuckled awkwardly, cutting eye contact with her. “I just…I just feel more comfortable with less revealing clothings.’’ I proceeded with my steps, hoping to hide my anxiety from notice. I heard her scoff. “You say 'less revealing’ as if you manage a little revealing clothes at all. Look at you, all covered up down to your thighs. I mean you could wear strapless tops or even off-shoulders, it's what young Lunas put on.’’“I-I mean I could but I just don't fancy those such dresses.’’ I answered, uneasy, adjusting the V-neck line of my dress. She let out a huff. “The training ground is over there, let's go take a look.’’ We watched for quite a while, I found myself enjoying the warrior spar against each other until they suddenly stopped to acknowledge someone.“Lycan Cyril?’’ I called out in shock.“What's so shocking about it? He comes to spar with the warriors too, he also needs constant training.’’ Astrea explained beside me.Why didn't she seem

  • Fated for the Lycan   GETTING HELP

    Chapter 61Alessia's pov An eerie silence roamed the space outside after the hurrying footsteps of guards left. A guard had rushed in moments ago to call the staged guard by the door of the dungeon.It sounded really urgent; the reason he had been called out of duty. But I couldn't make out what the guard reported through the thick door, besides I felt too weak to even lift a hand. Another sharp sting of hunger plunged at the top of my stomach, leaving a squeaking yelp off my lips as I grabbed the spot in a thought squeeze. Even though I guessed it couldn't be about food, I kept praying the guard had left to get me something to eat. I might starve to death if I get nothing to eat tonight. Telling what time of the day it was seemed in fact impossible, since it always remained pitch back in here. This was pure torture. It's now obvious that Thompson wants me dead. What was I thinking, wanting to stay with him despite everything he's done to me? He had shown me countless times how

    Chapter 60CYRIL’S POV “He's crazy.’’ Lance remarked, leaving a sigh off Alan's lips.‘‘I'll give him just until two days time to come around.’’ I said calmly.“But why are you so calm about it, this is so not your type thing to do.’’ Lance complained. There must be something I was missing on. Ever since the topic with Thompson, Lance has been unusually annoyed. He swore and cussed under his breath all through the call with Thompson; we had been in a meeting when his call came in. “Do you have a beef with him before now or something?’’ Alan voiced just the exact question on the tip of my tongue. Lance scoffed. “A beef? I'll rather go hiking on the highest mountain in the city.’’“That two days waiting period, you know what it's called?’’ I let a smirk curved up on my lips. Seeing their blank faces, I went on. “Reflecting period. I doubt there's anyone who wouldn't need that. During this time, he gets to decide what plan of action might be best for him.’’ I relaxed back on my cha

I saw Regal's car drive in and he stepped out to meet my gaze.I nodded at him to come on upstairs.“Greetings, Alpha.’’ He walked in.‘‘Is there a problem?’’ I didn't care much about the coldness in my tone, not bothering to spare a glance at him.“The lycans came.’’ He blurted out.I turned immediately to face him, my anger melting away for a moment.“I think they were on a visit, but we didn't allow them entry.’’ He stated reassuringly.Was that supposed to be reassuring news?“You blocked them?’’ I asked, amused and a bit apprehensive.I understood that I asked them to do it, but I realised I wasn't cut out for reality.“We blocked the borders like you instructed and strictly prevented them from coming in. They returned home following the orders of the lycan king.’’“Their king was with then?’’ I asked again in amusement, a strong stroke crossing down my abdomen.‘‘Yes, Alpha. Is

    Chapter 58Thompson's povI listened calmly as the line rang, holding my fingers in a fist. I was starting to believe what Annalise claimed now that Emelda was refusing to take my calls.“How dare that bloody old witch!’’ I gritted, bringing the phone to my face after another unsuccessful attempt to get her on the line.A message popped up on the screen, and my heart skipped a beat when I saw Cyril’s name on top. I hated that he managed to steal a skip from my heart.I strolled down to the cellar for a drink, aware of the implications Cyril’s message could likely bring about.Settling down before the table with my index and middle fingers caging the tiny bottom of my wine glass, I tapped on my message box. I read through with a straight face, he demanded a reason for my absence at his anniversary ceremony as well as an intended visit to Silverstone pack this evening.A chuckle fell off my lips.Was he dumb? Couldn't he read the writings on the wall?Without much thought, I dialed his

    Chapter 57Alessia's pov Tears blinded my vision, I couldn't recognise the routes he took until he tugged me down the stairs to the basement. I heard him punch some codes on the only door that uses a code down here. The dungeon. “No!’’ I grabbed his hand as he pulled my face up. “No please, don't do this Thompson.’’I couldn't contain the coldness of his face. It forced me into believing he had his mind made up and indeed he did. He flung me into the darkness ignoring my pleads, and slammed the door shut before I even landed on the floor. Dust wafted into my nostrils. Smelly dusts that dug deep coughs from my throat. I staggered to my feets and rushed back to the door. “Let me out.’’ I banged, horribly terrified by the consuming darkness. I couldn't even see my own hands. “Thompson let me out of here, please!!’’ I screamed, my heart thrashing with horror at the scary silence that responded to my voice.Did he leave already? He was really leaving me in here?“Thomp….’’ I trailed

    Chapter 56Thompson's povI stopped abruptly on my track, Alessia's unmissable scent thick in the air. There was no doubt she was close by. I marched into the living room, eye-searching thoroughly for her without any success. Rolling my eyes, I proceeded into the masters bedroom and there was Annalise seated on the bed. She stood immediately upon my entrance. “Hey. Are you okay?’’ She approached me slowly. “Did you do it?’’ I had it tied on my tongue tip all night, waiting impatiently to spit it to her. The least I wanted was to hear a lie from her. She threw her gaze downwards, shaking her head in something like disbelief. “Why do y'all ask me that? I could contain it when Alessia threw it at me but you too?’’“Give me a yes or no, Annalise.’’ I snapped, totally out of mood for sick dramas. “Of course I didn't do it. You of all people should know what I'm capable of, we've lived together for four years now.’’ A tear slipped off her eye. I hated the feeling. That I could clea

    Chapter 55Alessia's pov “W–what?’’ I crouched, my throat running unnaturally dry. “You heard me right. Get your adulterous ass up and return with him now.’’ Thompson glared, uncared with the manner he addressed me despite Regal's presence. I lost my demeanor, fixing my shameful gaze on the tiled floor. “I-I can't…” I mumbled out. “Will you rather I teach you a goddamned lesson right here?’’ Thompson fizzled, rushing to get me.“Not here, Alpha, please.’’ Regal caught him just in time while I'd sprawled on my feets, alarmed. “Get out of this place immediately, smelly dirty thing.’’ Thompson barked. I bolted out instantly, my heart heavy against my chest with tears blinding my vision.I bumped into a few people but couldn't care less until I got to the car. I crouched down by the darker side which faced away from the lights of the hospital, weeping my heart out. “That's enough, Luna. Please.’’ Regal said for the upteemth time, running his palm gently on my back.I couldn't cont

    Chapter 54Alessia's povI helped Regal in offloading our stuff and throlled mine to my bedroom. Stepping into the bedroom, I noticed someone on the floor and immediately recognised it to be Adrian. He didn't look like he was in a good shape, the awkward position he laid sent my body hairs poking out on my skin. “Adrian?’’ I called out to him repeatedly, but he wouldn't bulge. I forced my heels down to where he laid, and all light left my vision when I saw froth flowing from his mouth. I screamed madly, my heart bursting against my chest, leaving me nauseated at the sight. “Adrian! Adrian!!’’ I shook him, and he let out a breathless gag. I swung him up in my arms, dashed out of the room and ran down the stairs like a crazy woman. No, I'd actually gone crazy!“Regal!!’’ I screamed my lungs out. “What is it?’’ Thompson yelled into the haze, rushing out to check on the situation. Regal appeared simultaneously. All I cared about right now was getting Adrian to the hospital as soon

    Chapter 53Thompson's povMy blood boiled. My veins flamed with smokes, burning my insides. I badly want to shove a claw into the Lycan's idiotic face. It didn't faze me so much to hear Alessia address him by his first name. So many times she had attempted it in my presence. I wasn't so shocked. I knew something like this was on between them. I only tried to believe it was Alessia throwing herself on the Lycan. Call it selfish or whatever, I couldn't afford to bear a grudge towards the Lycan king considering the great advantages I earned from him. If he had remained quiet and just let me take Alessia away, we'd have been fine. Everything would have been okay even though I saw him kiss her back with so much enthusiasm. And it wasn't too late either. He could stop the fuss and not test my patience any further. But Alessia was definitely dying tonight. “Ain't you curious, Thompson?’’ He creased a brow, tilting his head as if to get a clearer access to read me. Why did my heart drea
