"I am a lonely Lycan, I have been living alone since my childhood. How can I feel lonesome when I choose to be like this?""Ch-Childhood?" Delilah stuttered. She could feel a tear roll down her cheek. She sobbed unknowingly. He frowned when he heard that."Sleep."Delilah tried to sleep but her eyes kept hurting. She thought she had been living a painful life. But how was Everett's life before? Was it painful? She remembered that when she first came there, she could not see any food inside the kitchen. She remembered how he was punching the tree and there was no one to stop him or treat him.'He has been living here since his childhood. He is a prince. What happened that he had to come here and live alone for his whole life?'She stared back at him and tried to stop herself from crying more.The following days went well. Delilah forgot that Havana ever came to meet Everett and how close they were. Delilah started to open up with Everett, though he looked unbothered. She was tryin
"Don't forget your place because Everett is only mine."The cold air grazed Delilah. She frowned at Havana. "Why are you saying this? You are his friend. A very good friend.""So what?" Havana asked and folded her arms."He thinks of you as his friend."Havana got mad hearing that. She ran toward her and glared at her."How dare you talk about our personal matters? He is my friend and I am his lover. I love him and only him. No one can take my place which I grabbed in his heart."Delilah was startled when she heard that. "Listen, girl. You are much younger than me. I don't want to attack you because he made you his slave. He is a strong man, he also has some needs and desires. Maybe that's why he made you his slave. But always remember that he will only take your body, but he will never accept your heart."Delilah clutched her dress. Why was Havana saying those things to her? She did not even tell her that she loved Everett.Havana chuckled as she looked at her expression. "You are
"EVERETT!"Delilah screamed. She saw the stake piercing his abdomen area as he turned to the side where Delilah screamed from.Delilah started to cry and ran to him.Another man threw another stake and Delilah did not notice it.She ran towards Everett as she saw his blood coming out of his stomach.She was about to go close to him when a stake pierced her arm."AAAHHH!"She fell to the ground and screamed in pain.Everett took off his blindfold and looked at Delilah who was on the ground now.Everyone looked shocked. "How did this girl get in?" One of them shouted.Everett bent down and Delilah looked into his eyes."Ev-Everett y-your w-wound." She tried to talk to him in pain. During that hurtful time, she was still thinking about Everett.Everett pulled out the stake from his stomach and threw it to the man, who threw it at him before. The man caught it immediately.Everett looked at Delilah's hand. "Who told you to come here? How did you come here?" "Everett, your wound-""SHUT U
"I am talking about Delilah. She fell in love with you."Everett paused for a moment but then glared at Conor. His eyes turned black again. "This is not the time for jokes.""I am telling you what it seems like. She loves you.""Stop all of this. I am already mad at everything."Conor glanced at Delilah. "She is an Omega. She is a pure girl. She always talked about you to me. She is very curious to know about you, Everett." "You don't have to treat her. Just go back. I will handle her wound." Everett said angrily. "Everett, she loves yo-""She is just like others. She is afraid of me. You didn't see how she had reacted when she saw me like this." Everett bellowed in agony. His eyes turned flame orange. His cheeks started to burn. Conor shook his head. "She is a young girl. Of course she would be scared when she saw any new creature.""Not a new creature, but a beast who eats people alive.""Stop saying that. She is with you right now. How did she get hurt?""I don't know.""I am
"Conor told me that you fell in love with me. Is it true?"Delilah's eyes widened. She could not believe her ears.Her heart was racing until then. But after hearing him, it skipped a beat. The wind came from the window and it brushed her hair. She felt her hair blowing in the air. She stared at him with her love in her eyes. She wanted to thank Conor. He did what she would never dare to do."Everett, I-I-"Everett interrupted her. "Never dare to do that."Her expression froze. "W-What?""Never dare to do that." He said again as if he was warning her.His smirking face turned into a grimace. He glared at her and alerted her."I am not a man for love. You are just a slave and should know your place. You are nothing more than that. How can you even think like that? Have you lost your mind? Do I need to remind you how you reacted when you saw my wolf? How did you react when you saw my real face?"Delilah stared at him with her sad eyes. She became speechless."You can not fall for me
"I want to confess to you.Delilah, I like you."Delilah was shocked. She stared at Ron as if he said something she had never imagined.Ron watched her expression and became nervous. He waved his hand in front of her face."Are you listening to me?" He asked her.Delilah did not reply but only stared at him with a confused face."What happened, Delilah? Are you okay?"Delilah stood up and said,"What are you saying, Ron? You are just my friend. We are friends, right? Then how can you say that?"Ron stood up too. He shook his head. "Delilah, yes we are friends. But friendship is one of the steps of likeness. Then someday it turned into love."Delilah stepped back when she heard that.What was he saying? Friendship was a step of love? Then what Havana said to her was true? Even Everett told her that Havana was right. So that meant they were really a couple?Delilah forgot about the current situation and thought about Everett. 'I am a slave who can't fall for her master. He loves som
'He doesn't want me to fall in love with him,At the same time, he doesn't want me to escape from him.'They entered the house. Everett did not look relaxed.Delilah looked around the house and felt that no one had come to the house.'Did Havana not come here today?' She thought.Everett looked at her and said,"Go to the bathroom and take a shower."'Didn't he tell me that he would heal me? Did he change his mind?'Delilah only nodded and went upstairs.She took a shower and went out of the bathroom. She saw him sitting on the bed.Delilah walked slowly and said,"I am going to make dinner.""First sit on the bed." He ordered with a cold voice.Delilah did not argue and went to sit on the bed beside him.Everett turned to her and looked at her right foot. The scratches were not simple. A small piercing could be seen. It caused the blood to rush out a few minutes ago.He stood up and bent one knee as he sat on the floor.Delilah was startled. "W-What are you d-doing?"Everett ignored
"Will you give us a chance? Because I love you, Everett. I really love you a lot."Everett stared at her. Delilah thought he would agree with her but she was wrong.She felt a hard push. "How dare you say that?"He yelled at her. Delilah was startled. "I-I was just telling you what I feel for yo-""Shut up! You can not feel anything for me. In fact, no one can feel anything for me. Didn't I tell you not to think like this?"His orange eyes were piercing into her eyes. They looked like killers. She felt he would kill her anytime with his eyes."Why are you saying this?" Delilah said but saw him leaving the room.She ran behind him downstairs. "Everett, listen to me.""Don't follow me." He shouted at her while walking forward."No, I need to talk to you."Hearing her, he turned to her."Today is the full moon. I will not come back tonight. You better stay inside this house. Otherwise, who knows when I will kill you."He left the house leaving her alone.Delilah stared at the door. She
Delilah stepped towards the stage. She was feeling very nervous. Today was her wedding to King Everett. The whole kingdom was waiting to celebrate the ceremony. It took her three whole months to become a perfectly trained Queen. She learned many things about royalty. She learned how to fight and defend. She learned royal manners and etiquette, everything. Though she was an omega, surprisingly, after Everett marked her, she became powerful. Amanda said that she was getting Everett's power and strength since they were now mates. With slow steps, she went to the center of the stage beside her groom, King Everett. "Do you, King Everett Wilson, accept Delilah Ashlyn as your wife and Queen?" "Yes, I do." "Do you, Delilah Ashlyn, accept King Everett as your husband and King?" "Yes, I do." All the people who came to witness the beautiful wedding cheered up. "You two may kiss now." The priest said. Everett turned to Delilah. He took her hand and kissed the back of her hand, which
Delilah said goodbye to Alpha and Luna as she got into the carriage. She did not want to go back to Everett's kingdom, but he warned her that he would destroy everything if she did not go with him.Though it was just a deal, it was not a lie that Alpha Elias and his family really cared about her all those two months. They did not let her feel a lack of anything."I will miss you all." She whispered from the door.Luna cried for Delilah because she was attached to her for two months. Everett got into the carriage and closed the door. The carriage started to move forward, leaving the area of the pack house. There were two other carriages giving security to the king's carriage, which was in the middle.The front carriage was for Jake and Havana and the back arranged was for Luke and Conor.Delilah looked outside through the window.She was really upset. She was forced to go back to where she did not want to go.Though she was shocked when she heard that Everett would make her his que
The next day Deliah was at the pack house.When she heard about Everett's visit yesterday, she became restless. She could not even sleep last night.All night she only thought about Everett. Why would he come to visit her pack? Was it related to what he told her at the royal party?Yesterday she asked Alpha and Luna if there was anything serious that King Everett would have to come since they had just come from his party.Alpha and Luna told her that it was their fortune that King Everett was coming to visit. They could not question the king.Delilah sighed as she looked in the mirror. She was wearing a long white gown. It looked good on her. But it was decorated well. Not with stones but with pricey fabric. She was wondering why she was getting so many expensive clothes to wear. That royal party night dress also looked costly. She was astounded that Alpha Elias was wasting too much money on her. A maid came to her room and knocked on the door. Delilah opened the door. "I came to
Havana left after talking with Delilah. Delilah was stunned by whatever Havana told her.She looked around to see Everett but he was nowhere.A maid came to Delilah and bowed to her."Hello, young miss."Delilah remembered that maid. She was one of the maids who tried to insult her because of her clothes when she came to the palace with Everett for the first time."Yes?""Lady Amanda is asking for you.""Lady Amanda?" "The king's grandmother.""Oh."Delilah did not know Everett's grandmother's name. So she could not recognize her when the maid told her the name."This way."The maid gestured with her hand and Delilah nodded her head.They went another way and came out to the main hallway. They went upstairs from the backside so that others could not see them.They went to Amanda's room. The maid opened the door and signaled her to enter.Delilah looked inside first to see if the grandmother was truly inside or not. When she saw Amanda sitting on the bed she smiled and entered."Gran
"Let's dance since the king has to dance first with his woman."Delilah was stricken dumb. "What do you mean?"He did not reply to her and dragged her with him to the dance floor where soft music was playing for the king to start the dance.Everett placed her left hand on his shoulder and grabbed her right hand with his right hand.She felt him placing his left hand on her waist slowly and then pulling her to him.She looked into his eyes and followed his steps."I didn't know you knew how to dance." She said."I had to learn many things in the last two months.""Good to hear that." She said and averted her gaze from him.She felt nervous under his gaze. Everyone was looking at them. They did not know who Delilah was but they thought she was one of the Alphas' daughter. Many Alpha's felt disappointed because this was the first dance that declared who the woman was. So that meant their daughters lost their chances.Many women glared at Delilah. Some of them felt jealous of her and so
Delilah could not let her eyes off from Everett. She always thought of cutting his hair. She knew he would look good but that much good, she had never thought of. Everyone's reaction was the same as Delilah's. They could not look away from his handsome face.Delilah could see there were no scratches on his cheeks. So clean and fair.When Everett was coming down, Delilah felt that her heart beat was getting fast. She tightened her jaw and looked away from him.Delilah could see other Alpha and their families. So many young and beautiful girls came to attend the royal party just to meet the king.Delilah saw pleasure in those girls' eyes when they looked at Everett as if he was their dreamy boy.Of course, they were pleased. Their parents might take them to introduce them to the king. It was not a secret that the king would take a queen for himself soon. So it was a great chance for them and their daughters.Delilah glanced at Everett. Many Alphas went to him and introduced their famil
TWO MONTHS LATER Everything had changed in Delilah's life. Now she was living in her old pack. She was staying with the Alpha's family in the pack house. In those two months, she never felt any need because before thinking about anything the Alpha arranged everything for her.Delilah was quite surprised about Alpha's behavior. Because why would anyone be so happy to let her stay with them?Luna was also a good woman. She adored Delilah and told her that she could think of her as her mother.Delilah's step parents were in prison for trying to sell Delilah. When Delilah came back to this pack, the Alpha already punished her step parents for that."How are you feeling now?"Delilah heard a voice behind her. She turned around and saw Alpha Simon. Simon was Alpha Elias's son. He was soon to be head Alpha of the pack.Since Delilah started to stay in the pack house, they became good friends.Simon was a few months older than Delilah. "I am fine." Delilah replied."I don't think so." He
The war was over. The palace and outside of the palace were stirred up. Everyone shifted back and went back to their places.Delilah was in Amanda's room.Amanda was crying while looking out at the widow. Her shaking hand was grabbing the white blind. She was an old woman. She could not take so much happening. It was true that her son Alfred killed her elder son Ezra. Her daughter in law was the one who was behind everything. Her grandson Maverick was not a good person, he wanted to kill Everett and almost succeeded once.If Everett killed them, it was his right to take revenge and Amanda did not oppose it. However, she was also a mother. She was not like Azenia, who only loved her one son. Amanda loved both of her sons but she was a strong Queen in her time. She could not let others be wronged.Delilah put her hand on Amnada's shoulder."Grandma."Amanda touched her hand and cried a lot."When your grandfather was alive, we lived a good life. Everett's father was from a different r
"I will mark your woman. Let's see how you will win over me after that."The moment Maverick's canine touched Delilah's neck, Maverick fell a push and fell on the ground."AAAAHHH"He groaned in pain. Blood rolled down from his canines. Delilah glanced at her bracelet. She remembered how that wizard told him that whenever any male wolf tried to get close to her, it would protect her.So he meant that. Whenever someone tried to mark her, it would save her.Delilah felt relieved when the bracelet actually protected her. She saw Everett go to Maverick and pulled him up. He clawed Maverick's cheek and it started to burn."AAAHHH! It's burning!"Maverick cried out in pain. All the wolves under Everett stepped back from Maverick.They could have killed Maverick the moment he came outside, but it was Everett's order not to kill Queen Ezenina, not her husband, not even her son. Because he would kill them, not anyone else. So they only attacked Maverick and did not try to kill him."MAVERICK!
