Lost Queen 84: Asking for A Chance
XANDERAdriana is right to be suspicious of me suddenly agreeing for her to go out. But that doesn’t mean it makes the heat I feel in my chest lessen any more.While I love all the ways she makes my body hot, this isn’t one of them.She doesn’t trust me. I know she didn’t. But why the hell did it hurt so much when she showed it?I was fine with her avoiding me after what happened three days, four hours, twenty two minutes and five seconds ago.It took her by surprise. Heck, it took me by surprise too.The overwhelming feelings must have…overwhelmed her. And I got that she needed space from me, so I gave her.We didn’t have sex. I have no idea how that happened, or didn’t happen. I swore to myself I had lost control and I was going to take whatever I wanted. I’m the fucking lycan king for crying out loud.But there was this nagging voice in my head. It wasn’t there before but now it rains all over my fun. And it pushed and pushed until I broke and backed out. Like a total wimp.I didn’
Lost Queen 85: Perfect Fit
ADRIANAThe conversation I had with Xander in the morning is still ringing in my head. I couldn’t believe he said any of what he did.I was too stunned, baffled that I couldn't even think of a response. I froze on the spot and kept staring at him like he had grown two heads.“I'm not saying you have to respond right now or even have an answer." He breathed out when I didn’t say anything even after about five minutes.It felt like five hours if I'm being honest.“Take your time. I’ll be here when you feel you’re ready and you’re comfortable with all this.” He brought my hand up to his lips and placed a soft kiss there.I’m not lying when I say it made my heart stop. For that second, I wondered why I ever thought he was so bad. I almost lost track of everything I stood up. Thankfully, my senses returned before I fully lost my mind. I didn’t say anything damaging. Silence was the best for me.“Patience has never been one of my strong suits,” he chuckled and I couldn’t believe myself when
Lost Queen 86: Vessel
ADRIANAXander takes a quick shower, coming out only a few minutes later. Now dressed in gray sweatpants and a black t-shirt. I tried to keep my eyes above his waistline. While I battled a weird disappointment I felt at the thought of him coming out dressed.I wanted him in his towel, which you can already tell is a very weird line of thought.He heads back out of the room without a word in my direction. I almost followed him to ask what was wrong but I stayed back. Simply because of my ironclad self control that was coming out of nowhere. I couldn’t say this was the right time for that.So, that probably meant that it was.After staying in bed with the same clothes I spent all day in. I finally got up to go and pee.I did my business and was about to walk out when I noticed Xander’s shirt folded perfectly. It was kept where the towels were supposed to go. I paused a little in shock, then I looked around thinking maybe he forgot it there.The towel he used was in the hamper and his pa
Lost Queen 87: Girls Day
ADRIANA“No, you can’t say no.” Daciana puts her hands over her ears and starts singing loudly.I laugh at her antics as I watch her do that. It was a bit childish but I loved how she didn’t try to hide that side of her. I would never have thought she was like this when I saw her at the party. It was refreshing though.“I didn’t say no,” I spoke, chuckling when she didn't hear because she was still too busy trying not to hear.I got up from the bed with a sigh and walked to her. Then I grabbed her wrists and pulled her hands away.She tried to fight me but when she heard me saying yes. She immediately relents. She smiles broadly, her eyes shining with it.“You’re the bestest sister in the world!” She pulled me into a tight hug.I laughed in her arms, not having the heart to tell her we’re not actually sisters. I didn’t even know what she meant by that but it felt good. It sounded good.“I promise you’re going to have the best time of your life.”“I don’t doubt it.” I smiled. And I was
Lost Queen 88: No Control
XANDERI wipe the sweat off my forehead and pull out another heavy box.Donovan coughs loudly and tells me to stop that. He doesn’t want to get some old forgotten disease in his system.And this, this is why condoms and birth control were invented. I couldn’t imagine having a child like him. I was already struggling with him as a brother.He makes murder seem okay.After his hissy coughing fit like a dying cat, he shoots me a glare which I promptly ignore.I’m going through Dreaya’s old stuff that I haven’t burnt. I always knew a day would come when I would need them to get to her. Except I haven’t found anything and we’ve been at this since last night. I haven’t even had the time to watch Adriana like I usually do.And that is adding to my pissed off mood right now.The only thing I’ve been able to gather after going through five boxes that are big enough to fit pharaoh. Witches like collecting weird items. Some really damn questionable looking things.If we didn't have enough reason
Lost Queen 89: Women's Only
ADRIANAI always thought Xander was rich, I mean I knew he was rich. He is the lycan king and he has been alive for over three centuries. But I never really got to understand what that really means.It is so easy to think he is not a normal man. But then I don't really see it.Now that I’m outside his pack and I’m not seeing him smiling at anything I say. I’m seeing the effect he has on people.Starting with the flight from the pack to the central. And yes, flight.Daciana said she didn’t want to stay in the car for hours and then have to deal with that on the way back. So she called a helicopter.Xander’s helicopter because he happens to have one on standby at all times because of emergencies.According to her, this was an emergency.I don’t think my mouth left the ground since it touched there because of the shock.This is looking a lot like the stories Ursula tells me about the powerful men of the world. Xander was one of them.We arrived at the Central and immediately moved to a f
Lost Queen 90: Relaxation
ADRIANAI had no idea what I was expecting from the club. Wait, my mind is completely empty.I feel like a baby, learning how to be human for the first time. Learning how to walk, talk, and eat. All of it.Daciana just takes my hand and leads me inside.There is a heavy red curtain separating us from what's going on behind the scenes. When the lever stopped. She glanced at me and waited until I didn’t look like I would pass out.The trip down here felt like dropping into a hole. It was quite literally that. Just that the end of the hole was something good. Or at least, I hoped.I wish I could say I was having second thoughts. I actually wasn’t.The curtains moved to the side. Exposing many round tables and women walking around in little to nothing clothing. Some are laughing and playing games. Some had cigars in their mouth and they went about, laughing and teasing each other.One thing I noticed immediately we stepped in was, there were no men.“Women only.” Daciana said as though sh
Lost Queen 91: Into Gilrs
XANDER“Hey! Why are you acting like a raging psychopath?!” Donovan screams as he gets to the room.I growl in his direction in warning. I am not in the mood to deal with his shit. Nor do I have the patience to. If he was smart, he would know to stay the fuck away from me.He doesn’t move back, but he doesn’t say anything stupid again.“How much longer?” I roared at the trembling man seated with a laptop on his lap.I have no idea how he ended up working for me if he was such a pussy. He looks like he is about to pee his pants and I haven’t even gotten my hands on him yet. It would be best if he avoided that happening.“Just a minute, alpha.” He stuttered. “I have already gotten where they are, I just need to pin down their—no, no, no, no.”“What?!” Donovan and I ask at the same time.He jumps, looking like he wanted to run away from his skin. He swallows thickly then blinks up slowly.. His lips were trembling when he met my eyes. My hands itched to claw the eyes out.“I lost them.”I
