THE LYCAN CITY. LUKKAR CASTLEALPHA LUKKARI stalked behind Rosalie. Her aroused scent trailed behind her hanging in the air and filling my lungs. Whatever she was up to was definitely no good as she had chosen the lower corridors that had no guards and no one to watch us. Whatever she had in mind would definitely never work, I had made up my mind to leave to toxic relationship we had the day I had firsts perceived my mate and even if she was to throw her naked self on me I would never consent to it.We got to the guest quarters and I sighed, tiling my eyes in disgust as I stepped into the room after her. I heard her click the door shut behind me and I stood still, clenching my jaws and expecting her to launch her kiss attack on me but was surprised when she didn’t. She walked slowly, sitting in the large bed and crossing her legs.“What?!” I hissed, her impingement had started to annoy me and I could feel my blood got hot with anger.“I just want to know… why did you choose her over
THE LYCAN CITY. LUKKAR CASTLELUKKARThe roads were opened and it was hard not to notice the contented look on the representatives face when he sat at the round table amongst the Beta board and I.“I don’t know how you managed to do it, young Alpha, but Lady Rosalie had effectively opened her roads for import as early as 6 am.” It was the first time I had heard the Beta refer to me in a respectable manner.“I guess we can all say that the crisis has been avoided, thanks to you Alpha, and the transportation of goods would continue as normal via Lady Rosalie’s tracks and in use of her vehicles!” The rep said and I nodded to him.The Betas stood and and I they all lowered their heads, the representative did the same and they exited through the main door, their robes trailing behind them and my mind zoomed back to the events of night, the event that had happened between I and Rosalie in that room.**********I returned to the kitchenette, the aroma of severally cooked meals that Amin had
THE EMERAL KINGDOMDERONMyla ravenously ate the dead animal. I watched, surprised that she had developed a taste for the meat just by staying in her wolf form. Once we shifted into our wolf, we could eat raw meat, it was part of our instincts now and some people believed that eating the animals raw would help develop us and make our wolf bigger and stronger. Though my mother had told us that it was a lie I could swear Myla had grown an extra inch just by eating the meat of the dead deer.‘That’s enough Myla! We have to go home, mom will be worried if you stayed out too long!’ I linked to her but she had a deaf ear to me, I could sense her aura, totally feral like she had lost herself in wolf instincts and had no human consciousness.I had pounced on the deer, slamming it and Myla used her inch long canines to break its neck.‘MYLA!’ I linked, telling into her mind and she turned around, her eyes holding a deathly gaze as she growled at me. I mentally rolled my eyes. People who had no
THE LYCAN CITY. LUKKAR CASTLEVALERIEThe slow click of the twisting door knob woke me from my sleep, I knew something was wrong when I didn’t feel the pleasant hold of my mate and somehow I had missed his presence even as I slept and it suddenly became hard and uncomfortable to sleep without the warmth of my mates body. I felt small in his larger frame and even smaller when i Kay my head on his chest and felt the steady vibrations of his heart beating in chest.I had slipped out of my clothes right before he came back to bed and I loved the way he twisted my nipples in his fingers, the little shocks of pain arousing me and oddly causing intense pleasure.I drifted back to sleep, wishing that this moment never ended but was heartbroken when I woke to the blinding rays of light that warmed my eyelids through the window. I grunted as I turned my back to the light, now that I was awake I already felt too uncomfortable to go back to sleep. I lay for about five more minutes before I finall
THE LYCAN CITY. LUKKAR CASTLEVALERIEMy shower was short, I dried off and proceeded to find my maid, the real Ariel, she was easier to talk to and if I wanted any leads on the best way to escape this castle without drawing suspicion to myself she was the best person to talk to. The gown I picked was simple and elegant, light blue with a rather long lower part and hated the way the maids looked at me with contentment on their faces as they greeted, as if they were finally happy to see me wearing something that wasn’t a tow or too short to be called clothes, as is I wasn’t wearing those because their Alpha would have preferred me naked when ever I was around him.I approached a maid, she was younger than the lot and wore a pink flower in her hair. She stared down over the bannister, admiring the inner orchard and seemed to be lost in her own thoughts.“Ummm, hello,” I greeted and she did not hear at first. Whatever she was thinking about had gotten all her attention. I stepped up close
THE LYCAN CITY. LUKKAR CASTLEVALERIEI was in the global garden with Ariel, spending the whole day in a space filled with plants was not my best way to spend the day but I had not seen or heard from Lukkar for the most part so I made sure to keep myself busy. The maid was more fun than I had thought and I spent the hours hearing gossips and more about they Lycan Kingdom than I could ever have.“The first time I worked in the kitchen, I was slower than the lot, I always had to drag my feet and end up working late night to catch up.”I raised a brow, surprised that they even let her into the kitchen in the first place, the way I saw the hierarchy in the castle younger maids like Ariel did minimal jobs and cleaning or gardening.“Then one night I went to the kitchen when the senior maids where done, guess who I saw?”“Amin?” I asked.“Nope, the Alpha!” She exclaimed cheerily and her excitement was contagious.“He was?”“Cooking! Cooking for lady Rosalie…” she trailed off and I pondered
THE LYCAN CITY. OUTSIDE LUKKAR CASTLEVALERIEThe guards threatening aura immediately disappeared as he spotted the wolf. I lay flat on the ground as he mumbled something in hush tones before the bright beam of his torch seized and wondered what the heck was going on between the both of them.Ariel had her eyes pressed shut, she shook, livid with fear and I guess the words she mumbled were silent prayers to the moon goddess. If she was scared now then I wonder the death that may await her if she actually did get caught.“Get up your grace… we don’t have much time!” Reila linked to her mind but the connection wasn’t smooth and easy like how Lukkar’s was, instead it was rough and felt like a pain in my head, I had no idea if it was because I could barely think straight of if this is just how it was with wolves that weren’t your mate.I pushed myself up from the floor and felt Ariel’s support as she helped me up. Together we hobbled towards the unlocked gates and saw the guard with his b
THE LYCAN CITY. LUKKAR CASTLEALPHA LUKKARMy mates moaned deeply, her dulcet voice singing out slowly as I slid my cock in and out of her pleasure hole. Who knew sex with my mate would be so euphoric? A groan escapes my throat as I feel my release and did nothing in my power to stop myself from releasing inside her.Her hips moved in sync with mine and she let out a small sigh as she came.I had been so mad, my blood boiling with anger but all that changed when she kissed me. My body lighted up to the kiss of my mate and it was nothing like I had ever felt. My nerves fired and I wanted noting more than to take her right away.“Faster.. !” She commanded, gasping for breath and kissed her deeply, seizing the little air she had and enjoying the taste of her saliva.I obeyed her command, she may not have known it but she had total control over me now and I felt the power of my wolf stir in my chest.When I released again I allow the quick spasm slow before I kiss her again.What was I do
THE LYCAN CITY. LUKKAR CASTLE.VALERIEThe Tracker seemed to move through shadows, I had a strange feeling in my stomach and I wondered if that was because I was almost raped again or the Trackers magic just gave me a bad feeling.When we stop I'm looking down at two rows of armies, towering wolves that growled softly and foot- soldiers that wielded sharp blades. My insides twisted and I fought back the strong nausea that came over me when I saw the Alpha Emeral.He was cladded in polished armour that gleamed under the soft moonlight."You have something that belongs to me!" He bellowed. My mate wore an identical pair of armour, it was no mistakening that Amin was the giant black wolf that loomed behind him.I easily spotted Sylria, the end of her staff twinkled under the moonlight."If you mean my mate then you are mistaken!""She was given to me long before you found her, she belongs to me!"I spotted My father, hia hard gaze swept over where I watched from the dark and I jerked on
THE LYCAN CITY. LUKKAR CASTLE.VALERIEMost occupants of the castle that were not going to battle had relocated to Rosalies’ mansion at the edge of the kingdom which was farthest away from the possible damage of the war.I watched Sylria kiss her little sister on the forehead a she waved her off with moist eyes. I hoped she would be reunited with the little cute angel, but the possibility of death was still something that frightened me. What frightened me worst was when I learnt the wolf that Hunted me was fighting at Lukkars side.I sat on my bed, Ariel was about departing with the other maids when I told her to follow me.Ariel’s eyes brightened like stars when I told her she was no longer obligated to bring me meals or clean the cabinets.“You can go home Ariel, I’ve owed your parents a lot, this is the least I could do. From today you a free woman and of course your family would still be supported by the Alpha.”But the light in her eyes dropped, she looked at the ground and I won
THE LYCAN CITY. LUKKAR CASTLE.ALPHA LUKKARThe Warriors growled at the strangers, I and Amin walked to the front of the line. The men that stood at the castles gate both looked as nonchalant as ever but when I locked eyes with the taller one I immediately recognised his aura.“YOU!” My instincts were feral, I had waited for the day I would get to rip him apart, the day I would get to complete our fight without him backing out.“Forgive my err, intrusion your majesty but I would not have dared step foot on the royal grounds if I did not bring urgent news.”“The war is coming, we know, all you’ve done it submit yourself for me to tear you limb from limb!” I stepped froward, my wolf angry and ready to come out for the brawl. The other wolf standing beside him took a step back, cowering in fear.“If you would err, just allow me speak.”“You Hunted my luna, almost killed her, I have nothing to hear from you!” i closed the second between I and the Hunter in a second, the power of my wolf f
THE LYCAN CITY. LUKKAR CASTLE. HIDDEN WOODSFUGITIVE DERONMaybe I would have been more at peace if Sylria had never shown up, maybe. But now not only did her presence make me feel slightly giddy inside, but she had also delivered the horrifying news concerning Emeral soldiers matching up the the boarders of the City.I had had to lie on the ground until Nelma had come to help me up, the two females cared less about if I would be able to see again or not. My face was still swollen all over and I could barely see five feet in front of me as the horse galloped on. I held tight to Sylria, she rode the horse and Valerie held tight to me, Nelma giggling excitedly.The certificate was in my hands, my head still ached from the aggressive way Sylria had let out her anger in beating my face flat against the ground. My healing was slower than usual but I could feel my lips repair themselves and lost teeth start to stalactite from my upper jaw.The horse neighed, throwing its legs into the air
THE LYCAN CITY. LUKKAR CASTLE. CASTL E CELLARSFUGITIVE DERONThe cold from heavy shackles weighed my hands down, this was not the kind of fate I was expecting to have. So far no one had said a word to me except for the Warrior that had plotted all this out with Jharad and by his gloating expression he had achieved whatever it was he had wanted to accomplish.A cold bowl of what I thought was supposed to be dark porridge sat beside me in this dirt cellar, I knew it would only taste twice as bad as it looked.Why hadn’t I jumped with her? I still had the ankh on when I saw the glint of the fired arrow but somehow at that only moment I had forgotten about the dark magic that I had in form of a cross hanging from my neck and instead took the poison arrow. Foolish.Still, one question me, who had tried to kill Valerie and why? I was still not clear on what her status was in this kingdom but from the looks of things she indeed was the Queen, the Alphas mate, his Luna. I still remembered h
THE LYCAN CITY. LUKKAR CASTLE. THE GREAT THRONE ROOM. VALERIES INTRODCUTION CEREMONYFUGITIVE DERONJust saying it was hard to breath was more like a revised way to explain it all, not only were my lungs frozen but my entire body had stiffened to stone. I saw her paused too, her arm halfway through a wave and her lips parted. It was like we had gone to sleep and woke up in the same dream, but it was her and this moment was more real than reality. She had evaded one Alpha only to be forced to marry another? I would not all this!I Slung the ankh over my neck, allowing my wolf to take over and I felt the deep cut on my arm heal up before the power of my inner beast took over my being. I towered over the cheering nobles who were probably too drunk to notice the black wolf that loomed within them.‘VALERIE!’ I linked my scream to her before taking the largest leap, she did not move, she stayed still like a statue her eyes shaky as she looked into the orbs of my giant wolf. I pounced on he
THE LYCAN CITY. UNKNOWNFUGITIVE DERONCertain memories flood back into my mind as I stared into Sylrias’ brown eyes. Her body was just highlighted by the moon perfectly but what concerned me most was the imposing staff she held tightly in her left hand. She did not wear any smile, just a nasty look and I could easily spot her ankh so black it would make a shadow seem bright. Why would she bring an ankh and a staff? This was a friendly meet but the glare on her face made me think otherwise.It hadn’t been too long I saw her, but seeing her like this made me question if she still saw me the same way or if she looked at me and all she saw was a stranger.For a moment we both said nothing, I waited for her to make the first words but she seemed to be waiting for me to speak up first too.“Sylria…”“Deron!”We said each others names at the same time.x x x x x x x x x x x x x x xThe streets were more busy than they had ever, everyone in the kingdom spoke about the Queen to be and the fea
THE LYCAN CITY. LUKKAR CASTLEVALERIENever had so many people stared at me like this, stared at me with happy and warm smiles. I had had stares in my life, a lot of stares that usually came with an equal lot of scorn. But today I was the star of the kingdom, nobles flocked around me like I was some rare gem they all wanted to get a glimpse, for the first time I had seen peasants walk the castle halls. I greeted a small peasant family, the man looked a bit scruffy and took only about a second to recognise me before he threw his head down and literally screamed the words, “It’s an honour to be in your presence your grace!”I laughed heartily, waving him off and I saw the surprise on his wife’s face when I said, “The pleasure is all mine.” I gave their daughter a flower from one of the many Ariel had stocked like decorations in my hair, and my heart rose when I saw the long smile that brightened the girls face.Since I told Lukkar the truth about me I had felt freer, lighter and more re
THE LYCAN CITY. LUKKAR CASTLEVALERIEMaids flocked around me like termites around a candle light and their happy faces were a complete opposite of the glum face that stared back at me from the mirror. It was my day, I would finally get to be one with Lukkar, why wasn’t I happy?The air in the room held the fragrance of several different perfumes and face powders, all of which blended together to give a rather pungent smell. When the chattering and occasional dabbing on my face with make- up brushes started to bug me I stood up. They all went silent, most of them were younger than me anyway.“Excuse me I… I think I need some air.” I walked out of my room, my face half painted with power and I proceeded to the garden. I instantly spot Reila, she was with a watering can attending to a small bush of roses.She spoke once I got close to her, “I knew you’d come to find me here…”I shrugged my shoulders. “I’m just not really feeling it…”She turned to face me. “You? Or Valerie?”There was n
