Chapter Forty-Four – Leandros Left?

last update Last Updated: 2024-08-16 22:34:04

Lyra’s POV

My heart thumped wildly with excitement as I reached the closet. I had always wanted to see the place where my mate had grown up. I wanted to meet his first crush, his aunt, who had brought him up. Now that wish would come true. It would be my first trip outside my country to a foreign land.

“Stop, Lyra. You can’t accompany me.” Leandros’s desperate plea brought me out of my excitement.

I turned to see the torn look on his face. “Why not? I have my passport. I can ask Uncle Felixe to send me my bank card to withdraw money. There’s a lot of money in my account.”

“It’s not about money or documents. Uncle Georgios, the king of Aromania, is unwell and I’m going to see him. This isn’t a joyous occasion for you to visit them. Please, Lyra, try to understand the situation. I’ll take you when he recuperates.”

“My presence won’t hamper his treatment in any way, Leandros. I’ll take care of him too. Don’t leave me here and go away. I hate being alone.”

My heart twisted in pain at

    Leandros’s POV I reached the kingdom of Argyros after almost twenty-four hours. I didn’t want to involve my folks in Aromania. What if King Iliad declared war on them? It was better to talk to him first. Nestled in northwestern Greece, in the Zagori region of the Pindus Mountains, the kingdom of Argyros was inhabited by the Argus Howlers. Dimitra’s family had ruled them for years, but the situation was bleak now.This was the only generation where, in the absence of a male Alpha heir, the Alpha king was in a dilemma. Princess Dimitra was a weak heir with no interest in ruling her pack. As such, her father was forced to resort to unfair means to get her mated to an able alpha male who wouldn’t take advantage of her situation. Having known me since childhood, the Alpha king trusted only me with his daughter. It was understandable since I belonged to an alpha lineage, too. My mom was the daughter of the alpha of our neighboring pack when she eloped with my father.The car brought me fr

    Leandros’s POV The entire night, I didn’t get a wink of sleep. My mate’s innocent face kept flashing across my mind. She was in pain, in tears, only because of me. She didn’t deserve this at all. All the time, I thought of ways to convince King Iliad to let me go. I knew I couldn’t convince him. With his rigid thinking, he was a tough nut to crack. If anyone could make him change his mind, it was Dimitra, but I doubted she would. It was because of her obsession with me I was forced to face this shit. My blood boiled with fury and at that moment, I wanted to kill the father and daughter duo and escape from here. The next morning, I waited for the king to summon me, but he didn’t. After a sumptuous breakfast in my room, I paced the floor, waiting for the next course of action. I didn’t have all day to enjoy their hospitality. I was a busy wolf with a business and pack to run. The door opened, and I groaned at the sight of Dimitra in a brighter spirit than last night. “Good morning

    Leandros’s POV The moment Dimitra left, I raced back to the balcony. This was my only chance to escape before they imprisoned me here forever. Before I could shift into my wolf, the door opened and King Iliad’s guards rushed in to capture me. How did they know about my plans? Were there cameras installed in the room to capture my movements? “Grab him. He shouldn’t escape. It’s time to throw him in the palace dungeons for not cooperating with our king,” said the poker-faced attendant. Wasting no time, I shifted in the blink of an eye before they could capture me. I jumped from the balcony in my desperation to escape. I couldn’t waste my life here in their dungeon. Lyra was waiting for me at home. “He escaped! Catch him!” yelled the attendants. There was chaos all around while I landed on the treetop of the nearest canopy of Greek fir, a trail that surrounded the palace. It halted my fall, and I eased down to the ground and dashed towards the boundary wall. There was chaos inside t

She started evening hobby classes for the students, which had become a tremendous hit. It allowed me to earn and kept me occupied too. It had been almost one and a half months since Leandros left me that fateful morning. Ever since I had no information about him. Strangely, Zephyrus and the others hardly spoke about him before me. I tried to find out about him, but they always gave a non-committal reply. It seemed they were hiding something from me. Was Zephyrus’s uncle so unwell that Leandros switched off his mobile phone for days? Why did he sever all ties with me?Why didn’t Zephyrus go to Aromania to see his family? Why did he send Leandros instead? Everything was confusing, and I had no one to ask the questions erupting in my mind all day. Lena and Hazel were so busy, we hardly sat down to chat like before. Sometimes I had the feeling they were avoiding me. E

    Leandros’s POV I opened my bleary eyes in the wee hours of the night in my cell. In another three hours, the sun would be up and I could plan my escape. Today I felt much better. It was a wise decision to not touch last night’s dinner, steeped in drugs. The stupor I was in for almost a month and a half cleared a lot. Although the hunger pangs I felt were intolerable, I could ignore them today. It was important to look for an avenue to escape. It had been almost fifteen days since the evil Dimitra didn’t pay me a visit to fulfill her twisted lust.I just hoped she fell into a hellhole and died a harrowing death. Why couldn’t the Moon Goddess punish her for her crimes?I eased off the bed and stretched my rusted muscles. I had stopped hoping to be rescued. Maybe Zephyrus didn’t want to risk the pack’s safety. Maybe he has opted to forget me instead. There was no one to fight for me, no one to call my own, and no one to get me out of here. If my parents had been alive, I wouldn’t have

Was his uncle really ill?When I saw Lena in school the next morning, I couldn’t stop myself from asking her.I hadn’t seen Michael since that evening, and I rejected him. He was the only one who could answer all my questions. I should have found out everything from him before pushing him away. “Lena, I want to talk to you. Do you have a minute to spare?” She looked ill at ease as if wanting to avoid me. “Make it quick, Lyra. I have a meeting with the counselor in five minutes.” “Umm, I wanted to know about Leandros. Do you know when he is returning home?” She gaped at me for a minute and shook her head slowly. “I have no idea, Lyra. Zephyrus has gone to Aromania to seek him.” “Why Aromania when he isn’t there? Shouldn’t he have gone to Argyros?” I blurted out, totally at my wit’s end. “How do you

I hugged him close with relief as tears fell from my eyes. He hadn’t failed me, despite the threat looming over our heads, nor had he forgotten me. He was here for me, just like an older brother should. “When did you come here, bro? Did you get my message?” Did he know what I went through? I hoped he hadn’t mentioned a thing to Lyra. I wasn’t ready to face her yet. The trauma I went through had totally devastated me, and it would take a lot of time to get a grip on myself. Zephyrus released me with a sigh and led me inside. “I received your message and called Uncle Georgios. He had been trying to connect to King Iliad for almost a month, but the evil king didn’t cooperate. So we approached the shifter council and planned our attack.

Things will get nasty and King Iliad will definitely try to malign you to save himself,” warned Uncle Georgios. “I’m ready for justice, Uncle Georgios. I can face anything to get him punished.” “You shall get justice, my boy. We will be there to fight for you, but you have to be strong and adhere to your statements.” I appreciated everything he was doing for me. “Yes, uncle, I will.” Alpha Achelous visited me in the evening to prepare me for the intense grilling tomorrow. I didn’t waver at all, my need to see King Iliad punished fuelling my determination. My family, my brother, Zephyrus, stood by me like a rock and I knew I could do this despite my mental state.

    Lyra’s POV “Hospital? What happened to Uncle Felixe?” My heart sank as I dreaded his reply. “When he returned from work to see you gone, he wanted to fetch you from Lucania. We stopped him, but he paid no heed to us. At midnight he went to the airport informing no one. Only when we received a phone call from the traffic police, we knew he had met with an accident on the way.” I gasped in horror, clutching Leandros’s hand. “Accident? Why didn’t you inform me? Was he critical? How is he, Uncle Derrick?” Tears streamed down my cheeks as I stuttered with guilt. No wonder he didn’t call me. How could I be so selfish? How did I not understand the consequences of my actions? “He was critical, but miraculously, it was just some broken bones and whiplash. He’s undergoing rigorous therapy every day. Today Hera has taken him to the hospital for a checkup. Please come inside. They should be here any minute.” Guilt ate me up, and I dreaded meeting them. It was because of me they had to go thro

    Lyra’s POV I followed him outside to see a brand-new stunning blue Ford pickup truck on our snow-covered driveway. A gasp escaped my lips. “For you,” said Leandros, handing me the keys. “Wow! I can’t believe it, Leandros. Thank you for buying me my first car!” I had been driving my uncle’s cars or hitching a ride all my life. Now, I had a car of my own. “Oh! I’m honored to be the first and only one to buy you a car.” He opened the door and showed me the interiors. The triplets too came out to check. “Will you now come to school every day to pick us up, Mom?” asked Lucius. I smiled and nodded at them. “We’ll head to Hungry Wolf tomorrow after school.” “Yay! Can we have pizza, please?” asked Liana. “Yes, please. We’ve never eaten out,” said Lazarus. I looked at Leandros, seeking permission to take them out. Maybe he didn’t want them to eat out. “Sure, go ahead. I might join you too,” said Leandros with a chuckle. Throughout dinner, the pups couldn’t control their excitement. Hu

    Lyra’s POV The next morning, I got sucked into the mad rush of the morning. Getting the triplets ready for school was no mean task. Leandros helped me in every way he could, and finally, all five of us were ready to go out. “Mom, are you coming to school too?” asked Lazarus, watching me from the back seat. “No, Lazer. I’ll just drop you off at school and go to the marketplace with your dad.” Lazarus preferred the nickname and calling him Lazer was a sure-shot way to please him. “Why, Mom? Are you planning to join Dad’s company?” asked Lucius. “No, son. Your mom is planning to start her own business, her own fashion house,” answered Leandros on my behalf. The boys gave me jaw-dropped looks. “What’s a fashion house?” asked Lazarus while Liana rolled her eyes at him. “Don’t you know what a fashion house is? I swear you’re dumb. It’s a shop full of clothes. Mom wants to make clothes for all of us in Lucania,” she explained, and I smiled at her simple explanation. “Yes, you’re righ

    Lyra’s POV He slid down my body, licking every curve as he traveled down my stomach. A gasp escaped my lips, wondering what he was planning to do. Breathless with excitement, I raised myself up on my elbows to see what he’d do next. This was a novel experience for me and my body went into overdrive at his slightest touch. He chuckled to see my reaction as he moved his mouth lower. “What are you doing, Leandros?” I didn’t need to wait for an answer. A deep moan escaped my mouth when he buried his face between my thighs and licked my p*ssy. I fell back on the bed as my head spun with pleasure. His mouth was too much to handle, and it sent erotic tingles all over my body. “Oh! Don’t stop! Please!” I gripped his hair to push him closer, wanting him to give me my first release. His tongue was relentless, licking and stroking my cl*t until I was on the verge of a release. The powerful thrusts of his tongue intensified, and I could feel the pressure slowly build up inside me. I ground my

    Leandros’s POV It was a lazy Sunday, and we spent it in fishing and skiing with the triplets. Lyra packed up enough food to have a picnic by the frozen lake in our backyard. The pups enjoyed a sunny day outdoors until they were exhausted. It was something they had never done in the last four years, as Sunday meant pack meetings for me. Therefore, it was a relief that Zeph had wrapped up all meetings on Saturday. It left me free to enjoy with my family. Lyra’s laughter and exuberance were so infectious that the pups and I caught on by the end of the day. The result of our fun-filled outing was amazing. The pups bonded with Lyra so well that they started addressing her mom. My mind was now at peace seeing my pups find their mom in Lyra. She deserved it for everything she did for the pups ever since she moved in. She had no anger or resentment for having to look after the triplets. Although it was a monumental task, she did it spontaneously, with a smile on her face. Taking care of the

    Lyra’s POV Growling in his throat, my mate’s hot, wet mouth covered the mark, licking and sucking wildly. It set my body on fire, as moisture leaked from my p*ssy, soaking my panties. I cried out as he tortured me with his wicked mouth, stroke after stroke. Arching against him, I ground my hips against his thick erection! The mark was like an external erogenous zone! I sucked in a deep breath and pushed at his chest. “My turn now!” I muttered, controlling the urge to take off my clothes and ride him like there was no tomorrow. I pushed him down on the bed while he watched me with an amused look on his face. “Are you planning to really mark me, little mate?” The annoying nickname urged me to prove him wrong. I had to prove I wasn’t little anymore. Yes, I was inexperienced, but definitely I wasn’t a little wolf. “It’s time to prove I’m not little anymore!” I lay between his legs and reached out to his neck. His breath hitched as he gazed at me with delirious eyes! “Interesting! I’m

    Lyra’s POV Before I could get up, he crashed his mouth to mine, sitting on the sofa and pulling me onto his lap. It was the kiss I had been dying for since the fleeting kiss he gave me on Hera’s birthday. I had no idea what had stopped him from kissing me last night, but I was glad he overcame all his inhibitions. He clasped the back of my head, holding me still while his tongue worked on my lips. I wrapped my arms around his neck and melted against his body, sinking into his warm embrace. His mouth was hard, hot, and possessive as it plundered my secret recesses, plunging deep into my parted mouth. I sighed, surrendering to him. His scent was driving me insane. The kiss was enough to make me want him to the point of no return. Then all I could do was contemplate shoving him down on the sofa, pulling his pants down, and riding him until we both climaxed! I pulled him closer and kissed him back, running my hands around his broad back to feel the muscles rippling under my touch. I ha

    Leandros’s POV A soft pat on my cheek woke me up from the best sleep of my life. I opened my eyes only to find Liana hovering over me. “Wake up Dad! We’re late for school!” I sat up with a start and looked out of the window. The bright morning sun made me blink with panic. How did I sleep so late? “Gosh, Liana! How will we ever get ready today?” I jumped out of bed and then I remembered Lyra. Where was she? Hadn’t she slept with me last night? I remembered confessing everything to her. She promised to stay with me forever! Was it all a dream? Or did she leave me again? Maybe she had second thoughts this morning and left before I woke up. “Dad, what are you thinking about? You need to get us ready!” prodded Liana with a groan. I quickly freshened up and rushed out to the kitchen. To my immense surprise, I found the boys in the breakfast nook in the kitchen, tucking into eggs, bacon, and toast! Liana was busy scolding them for not getting ready yet while they turned a deaf ear to he

    Lyra’s POV He released a staggering breath and got up as if dismissing me. After knowing everything about him, didn’t he realize I was here to stay? I wouldn’t go anywhere now. “I’m sorry you had to go through so much, Leandros! Why didn’t you correct me before?” I didn’t budge from his bed. I intended to stay here in his house and share his bedroom with him. After his confession, there wasn’t a doubt about what I wanted to do. I would surrender myself to my mate for life. “I was mentally disturbed after the abuse. I wasn’t sure you would want such an abused mate. You didn’t deserve a mate like me. Your uncle hated me and pushed me away from you. I went into a severe depression, but thankfully my close friends stood by me. The pups depended on me and I bounced back only for them. You wanted to know the truth, and I bared my soul in front of you. I would understand if you don’t want to be with me. I swear I won’t bear a grudge. You’re free to move on, Lyra.” With his back to me, he
