VALERIE

My heart froze when I heard Adriana's voice behind me. I slowly slipped my clammy hands off the bars and turned around to face her. Her face held a scowl, which I had come to be quite familiar with, and her thin lips pursed out, making her look uglier than she already was.

“My lady," I forced myself to bow down before her.

“And what are you doing here?" she said in a voice dripping in venom and hostility.

My throat knotted as I began to search desperately for answers to her question.

I never thought about it while she scanned my body with her glaring eyes.

I was trapped and needed a way out as soon as possible. I knew what she would do if she found out my plots and the reason I was there.

She had always wanted to get rid of me and this was the perfect way to.

“Are you deaf?" Her snap shot me back to reality.

I batted my lashes severally and shook my head, stammering and longing for an escape route.

An idea suddenly popped into my mind and I said it withou

  • Lycan Brothers Want Me   Plot making

    VALERIE “You have things to explain to me, don't you?" She asked, folding her hands as she stared at me for an explanation.I stammered, avoiding her eyes as I thought of an answer that I would give her without sounding ridiculous.“I went to visit the prisoners. Princess Adriana would have had me reported to the Luna Queen or your brothers," I replied and her brows curved up in curiosity.“With no intentions?" Her question made me snap my head up in surprise.“Huh?" I mumbled, unsure if what I was thinking was what she meant.She smiled wryly and squatted down before me then cupped my chin.“You are… planning something, aren't you?" She asked and my jaws dropped in shock.“Huh?" I gasped, batting my lashes.I was shocked at her outburst and I was confused as to how I was able to leave clues on my trail.“I… I… don't know what you're talking about," I stammered, avoiding her sharp gaze.“You don't want to tell me?" She asked and I tilted my head, feigning innocence.She smiled and p

  • Lycan Brothers Want Me   Busted

    VALERIE We glanced at each other, stunned at her words. I couldn't believe her, none of us believed her words. Every single word sounded unbelievable. She couldn't betray her brothers, it was impossible. Princess Arlene tilted her head, her eyes focused on us. “Why won't you say anything? Don't you believe me?" She asked, understanding what was going on in our minds through our horror-stricken expression. “I… I don't get what you're saying, my lady," I muttered and she sighed out, shaking her head as she pursed out her lips in amusement. “You do not understand or you think that I am lying, which of them?" She asked. The three of us looked at each other, searching for answers to her question in our eyes but somehow, we got the same answer that was running around our heads. “Both of them, my lady," Bianca replied. My heart twitched when I saw pain flash across her beautiful eyes. “You all think that I am lying?" She huffed. My throat knotted and from the corner

  • Lycan Brothers Want Me   Backup plan

    VALERIE When those words slipped out of her lips, my heart constricted and I froze in fear. Soldiers ran into the passageway through the entrance of the dungeon. We were trapped and doomed, surrounded with no way out. “Going against the Lycan kings? It seems like you despise your lives too." The voice was unmistakable, even without looking back, we knew who it was."Do you really think that I will fall for that trick you played with my sister? I am smarter than you think, and I will make sure you don't live to taunt me anymore," she chuckled in a voice dripping with venom.My heart constricted and I clenched my fist, trying to subdue the pain and anger that bubbled within me. I realized that Adriana was destined to be a stumbling block and my enemy forever. “Turn around!" She snapped and my throat knotted. I glanced at Arlene and watched helplessly as her hands shook and her skin paled. I was the first to turn around and somehow, I was afraid and confident at the same tim

  • Lycan Brothers Want Me   Will I find happiness?

    VALERIE She scoffed loudly, shaking her head in disbelief, her eyes bulging out in horror.“That is a lie! That isn't the seal of the Lycan kings, that is… that is…" she stuttered, swerving her head left and right.Arlene shoved past the guards and grabbed my hand, staring intently at the seal in my hand.She gasped out in shock and her brows raised.“How did you…" she trailed off and scoffed in disbelief, darting her abashed gaze from the seal to my smiling face.“Arrest them!" Adriana growled, shaking her finger at us. The guards stepped back, staring at the seal with fear in their eyes.“My lady, that is the Lycan kings' original seal," the man standing next to her muttered, and her jaws dropped open in shock.She glared at me and scowled then marched towards me in fury.Before I could bat an eyelash, she grabbed my collar and pushed me to the wall. My back brushed against the rough wall and my skin tore. I groaned in agony and bit my lips, slamming my eyes as my back throbbed in

  • Lycan Brothers Want Me   Running away

    VALERIE The ride was quiet, aside from the excited whimpering of children. And yes, I still wondered if I would be happy outside the wolf kingdom. It wasn't so easy to get the seal from the Lycan kings, but I knew I had to do it, and somehow, they didn't seem to know that I stole from them before leaving. I had returned the seal to Princess Arlene before leaving. Though I knew that they might end up in trouble, there was nothing I could do to save them, or was I just being selfish? “Where are we going, ma'am?" The man behind the wheels asked, dragging me out of my thoughts. I raised my head and stared at the darkness overhead, my hand clenching onto the paper Arlene had given me with an address scribbled on it. “Drive to the seaport in Silver-line Pack. There is a ship waiting for you all. It has been arranged to take you all to a place in Romania where the Lycan kings will never be able to find any of you," I said, and his lips stretched into a smile. Sighs of relief

  • Lycan Brothers Want Me   Back home

    VALERIE My heart constricted and memories came rushing in as I stared at the house from the truck. A house that had brought me nothing but sorrow and misery.I took a deep breath and pulled the door of the truck open.“I will be right back," I said and shuffled up to the front porch then placed a soft knock on the door.My heart thumped loudly as I waited for a response from within. I felt my heart tighten as my mother's voice rang within the house.I took a step back then another one. My hands shook as I tried to control my emotions.I didn't know why but I felt like I was doing the wrong thing by returning back to the Pack and back to my mother. What if that old man is home? How will I get my mom out with him around?“I don't think he is home. Remember, he always spends the night at a bar," Jade reminded me, and I nodded, relief washed over me.My pulse raced as the door clicked open. Right before me was my mother, horror etched against her face and eyes as wide as saucers.“What

  • Lycan Brothers Want Me   The monster has returned

    VALERIE I stepped back as I stared at the shadow at the front of the door. My pulse raced as I took a step backward. I hoped that it wouldn't turn out to be what I thought.The shadow got closer and to my horror, his huge body stood gallantly by the door, a smirk of triumph on his face.My stepfather looked baffled at first when his eyes fell on me. He strained his neck and batted his lashes severally, then threw his head back and roared in a fit of laughter.He finally grew quiet again and looked at me with frightening eyes, which were red and teary from the alcohol he must have consumed before heading home.“Val? Is that really you, Val?" He questioned in an irritating tone.He chuckled and shook his head, widening his eyes to take a better look at me.“Hey, woman, is that your daughter, huh?" He growled, waving his hand from my mother to me.My mother glanced at me with horror in her eyes, unable to respond to his absurd question.“Thank heavens that you are still alive. I thought

  • Lycan Brothers Want Me   A plan up her sleeve

    LUCIAN Gamma Gilbert came running towards the car immediately Neil pulled up in the garage. Killian snapped his eyes open and groaned loudly, glaring at Gilbert who approached the car, fidgeting slightly. His senses returned to him and he reached for the door, pulling it open. Killian and I stepped out and began strolling out of the garage; neither of us gave him our attention despite the alarm spread out across his face. There was always trouble whenever we were absent; it wasn't a new thing. “My Lord, there is trouble," he muttered in a quivering voice. Our feet stopped shuffling but we refused to turn around. He covered up the distance between us and bowed to the ground, the fear still visible in his eyes. “My Lords, last night there was an issue that came up—" “Hold it!" I snapped, and his lips slammed shut. Killian huffed and continued his walk out of the garage. “But my Lord…" “Are you tired of being alive?" His skin paled and terror darted across his orbs. He dr

  • Lycan Brothers Want Me   A request to the villain

    VALERIE She seemed to be in even greater shock than I was. Perhaps, she never expected to find her greatest enemy in front of her door, wearing an Innocent look on her face. She shot up her head and shifted back, a sneer replacing the shock on her face. "What are you doing here?" She groused, waving her fingers at me. I threw my head back, not surprised at her reaction to my sudden appearance. "I came to talk to you," I said, sounding as calm as possible. She turned up her lips in disdain, scoffing loudly before narrowing her eyes. "If you're here to convince me to take the blame then I won't do it. Let's see how far this investigation will go," she muttered, grinning sinisterly.My eyes dimmed in suspicion at her words. I could tell she was up to something to protect herself. I knew she wouldn't go down so easily, but I had to find out about the Isle of the Blessed before digging out whatever evil plot she was crafting. "I'm not here to talk about that," I said. The smile o

  • Lycan Brothers Want Me   Join the villain

    VALERIE "What did the Lycan prince talk about with you?" Jasmine asked as she watched a maidservant braid her hair from the mirror before her. "He was upset that I barged in. That was all," I muttered. She dropped the hairpin she was admiring and craned her neck backward, her eyes prying into mine. My heart thumped loudly as I tried to imagine what would come out of her lips. You are lying? Are you trying to take my mate away? I don't believe you. "Thank you for helping me, Valerie. I wonder if I will ever find a kind like you," she muttered in the sweetest voice ever, making my brows raise in shock. Happiness flooded my body, and I blushed hard at her unexpected compliment. "That is so sweet of you," I muttered and she chuckled, shaking her head. "That was so brave of you," she said, lifting the anxiety pressing down on my heart. She turned and faced the mirror again, watching the maid's hands in silence. She was under house arrest and so was Renee."I will go and check on

  • Lycan Brothers Want Me   Damion's mother

    VALERIE We walked silently along the path, taking in the fragrance that hung in the air around the garden. Somehow, it felt like I was with Damion. That feeling was still there, that warm smile and eyes filled with longing, the only difference was that the longing in her eyes was not for me.She made me feel comfortable, just the same way Damion made me feel comfortable. I wondered why a beautiful soul like her didn't get the chance to live a longer life. What could have killed her? Sickness?My throat knotted at that thought and I heard my heart make a slight cracking sound as it tightened.I pushed the thought off and concentrated on her being alive. "I love your courage. Standing up against my father is something no one has ever done," she said, pulling her lacy sleeve down even though it didn't need the effort. "I was never born with the gift to rebel against everyone. I got it as I grew up in the darkest time of my life," I replied. She smiled lightly and tilted her head, p

  • Lycan Brothers Want Me   Rachel Nox

    VALERIE A smile crept into my face when the staff hit the ground. I spun around and smiled at Renee, my head bent to the side. Her lips twitched up in anger and she clenched her fist in fury. The council of elders stood up to their feet and bowed low to the ground, in respect to the Lycan king's decision."Until the victim wakes up, the both of you will remain the suspects. None of you are allowed to go close to the girl or anything related to her," the lycan prince warned Jasmine and Renee while his eyes were fixed on me. Renee's lips trembled, and drops of sweat appeared on her wrinkled forehead. I grinned and walked towards Jasmine then gripped her cold wrist and began to lead her out. I paused when I got to where Renee was rooted to. "If you are not guilty then you shouldn't be afraid," I whispered. She snapped her head up and gnashed her teeth, glaring murderously at me. I waved her glare aside and began to leave the hall with Jasmine."You!" The Lycan prince's voice ra

  • Lycan Brothers Want Me   True culprit

    VALERIE The silence that fell in the room made my heart race in fear. I dared not look in the direction of the Lycan king to avoid falling to the ground and losing my hard-earned confidence. I could feel his cold, striking grey eyes on me, his red, slightly cracked lips pursed out in anger at my intrusion."Who are you?" His cold voice pierced the air, causing goosebumps to appear on my skin. I gulped hard before raising my head to meet the eyes that ate me up. His beards were as white as snow with no fickle of a different color and his face glowed in the room, giving off ethereal vibes.In his right hand was a staff that I thought I had seen somewhere in the future."Who are you?" He growled again, pulling me out of the reverie that I was in."I…" my lips trembled, the words refusing to leave my mouth. "She…" I stammered, darting my eyes towards Jasmine. Disappointment flooded her eyes and she heaved loudly, staring at me in bemusement.My heart constricted as I realized that I

  • Lycan Brothers Want Me   Lousy threat

    VALERIE "You should avoid infuriating the Alpha prince," Victoria muttered. We were sitting on a low, wooden bridge, teasing the crystal water with our toes. "Why? I'm not causing any trouble," I muttered, staring keenly at the ripples in the water. "Really? You're already known as trouble just in the first few hours of your arrival. Doesn't that show that you were born to be troublesome?" She muttered. I bit my lips, unable to utter a word of defense. She was right. I'm always known for trouble in the present and here in the past. It wasn't my fault that I tend to fall into trouble and get in the bad books of people after meeting for the first time. I only fought for what I knew was right, and sometimes, the trouble was just brought by my haters, and that included Jasmine. If I had been as rebellious to my stepfather as I was to the Lycan kings, he wouldn't have dared to sell me "My life wasn't like this, it was filled with peace and silent agony. Everything changed when I m

    VALERIE I staggered back, my jaws dropped I'm dismay. "She is dead!" One of the ladies screamed in horror and my heart constricted in mortification. I was about to break into bitter tears when I caught one of her fingers move Hope slowly pushed into my shattered heart and I gasped, wiping off the tears on my cheeks I pushed through the woman, rushing towards her. I dropped beside her and grabbed her bloody hand, tears making my vision blurry. "Open your eyes, Jasmine!" I screamed, my eyes twitching in agony. "Leave that place!" One of the women groused, but I ignored her, rubbing her knuckles, which had almost frozen up.I had to stop the bleeding but I couldn't make out what should be done."Don't touch her until the Luna arrives!" Another woman snapped.I raised my teary face and sent a glare that made them back away.I faced her again, staring at her bleeding head.Her once dark, lustrous hair was wet with blood, gluing around the hole in her head.I bit my lips and took in

  • Lycan Brothers Want Me   Entangled

    VALERIE When I opened my eyes, a familiar face stared down at me with a cold expression. My belly churned as the previous events replayed in my mind. I quickly sat up, wiping off the drops of sweat that covered my forehead. "What were you doing there?" His voice came out hard and cold, causing me to shiver in guilt. I realized that the creature that I saw before I passed out was him in his wolf form. My eyes widened and a lump formed in my throat as I realized that that was him. He found me in that room— perhaps he never left; he must have hidden somewhere, waiting for whatever was trialing behind him to expose itself, and it turned out to be me. "Uhm…" I was about to come up with another lie when my eyes slowly shifted to the window.My heart constricted when I realized that the hunting must still be going on since it was still dark."Has it been up to an hour that I was unconscious?" I rasped out, breathing heavily.His head jolted back and his eyes dimmed in confusion."Is t

  • Lycan Brothers Want Me   Trapped in the corridor

    VALERIE Helping the prisoners escape from prison showed me the best way to escape out of the building without getting caught. Unfortunately, things turned out to be different here. Finding the way to the prison was impossible. All I could find was multiple corridors leading to a door. I groaned loudly and stomped my feet on the floor in frustration after the fifth unsuccessful attempt. My hand found its way into my hair, and I ruffled it, hoping that the transformation hadn't begun. I wasn't sure if I could get out of that place as I couldn't find my way back to where I came from. No matter where I dashed into, I ended up in front of the door.I stared at the door that had always been my dead end and dimmed my eyes. I stepped closer, wondering if I could sneak out through the door. I tilted my head to the side and smiled at the thought that sneaked into my mind. I walked up to the black door and reached out to grab the handles but hesitated and stepped back.After summoning as
