VALERIE

My throat knotted and my breath hitched as I stared at them in dismay.

Prepare for my mom's funeral?

I gasped and staggered back, my heart thumped loudly in my chest.

I shook my head. My lips trembled as I tried to understand what they had just blurted out.

“What did you say?" I asked, my voice quivered.

"The Blue Moon Pack is becoming more rebellious. If we continue to keep quiet, they might misunderstand it to be a weakness. We don't usually do these kinds of favors and to be sincere, I have realized that favors suck,” he muttered, his brows curved.

"Favors? Do you call that a favor? You… you two are evil!” I screamed in a voice dripping with hatred and anger.

I shouldn't have talked to them that way, I should have begged. But something wouldn't let me beg them.

"You know you shouldn't be talking to us that way, honey. Your mom's life is in your hand and the way you act will determine if she lives or dies,” Killian said and my heart twitched

“You can't do that. Y

    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

    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

    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

    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

    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

    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   Killian's return

    VALERIE I followed Lucian to Killian's room, my heart thumping loudly in my chest in excitement. He didn't bother knocking before pushing the door open. Killian raised his head when we entered the room. He dropped the cup he was holding and leaned back into the bed, his eyes piercing into ours in a suspicious gaze. "Don't tell me you two have been fucking while I'm struggling with my life," he huffed, turning up his lips as he narrowed his eyes at us. "Why should I bother myself when I'm certain that you're going to live," Lucian muttered nonchalantly. I trotted towards Killian and took his hand, rubbing it gently. "I heard you got the antidote," he muttered. I raised my head and our eyes locked. I blushed lightly, my heart skipping beats as those blue eyes that I had always yearned to stare into consumed me. "Did you get hurt on the way?" He asked. I shook my head, too stunned to speak. His hand moved to my hair, and he brushed it back, a smile flickering across his enchan

    VALERIE I almost choked when he whispered those words to me. "What… what?" I gasped, feeling the rush of blood in my face.""Don't you want to be sure you haven't lost your voice yet?" He teased, causing a smile to break out on my face. "Then I should see a doctor for my voice," I replied. Despite the desire I had for him, I still couldn't stop my stubbornness from showing up again.His hand moved to my hair, and he patted it gently before combing it down with his fingers."We don't need a doctor here, little Val, not when I'm right here," he whispered, teasing me with his hot breath against my neck. I shivered and giggled slightly.His hand traced up to my breast and he squeezed my hardened nipples, earning a gasp from me.He leaned forward and kissed my neck, placing love bites on my neck.I groaned out in pleasure, biting my lips as my eyes slammed shut in pleasure.My pussy was dripping wet, begging for an insertion of his fingers.He moved away and pushed his wavy hair back,

    VALERIE Lucian parted his lips, ready to pass out his judgment on me. "Why should she be treated that way after what she went through to find the antidote?" Lucian questioned me, snapping a glare at Michelle. "Do you even have a conscience?" He snapped at Michelle and her jaws dropped. "How sure are you that she went to the Isle of the Blessed? It's possible that she stayed at a place and returned with a drug prepared by a witch!" She groused, still trying to turn Lucian against me. "Why don't you focus on helping him recover instead of laying blame!" Lucian growled at her and she jumped, embarrassment smeared against her face. "But…" Lucian grabbed me and raised my shirt, pointing at the wound on my belly. "Is that enough to prove that she went there? Will she hurt herself so bad to lie?" He snapped. He sighed and dug his hand into his hair, groaning in anger as he glared at her in annoyance. "She did her part by going to the cursed Isle and getting the antidote, why don't

  • Lycan Brothers Want Me   The accusation

    VALERIE My heart stopped beating the moment his lips pressed against mine. A warm feeling washed over my body and my legs stopped shaking. He pulled away and blinked repeatedly before grasping my hand. His eyes held emotions that I couldn't interpret even though the meaning was clear to me and everyone surrounding us.His lips trembled, and his chest rose and fell, causing a knot to form in my throat."Go on," he whispered tenderly to me, brushing my hair back with his hand before letting go of my hand. He glanced over at Michelle and nodded towards her. "Come on, take her in and prepare the antidote for Killian," he said in a completely different tone. Happiness rippled through me, and I tried hard not to burst into laughter or mockery before everyone. Michelle, who was almost numb from shock nodded slowly and began to climb the stairs with heavy steps. A smile tugged at the corner of my lips as I trailed after Michelle. We didn't say a word to one another as we walked acros

  • Lycan Brothers Want Me   Back to the Blood Moon Pack

    VALERIE "My lady!" Beta Neil exclaimed and rushed towards the car I was in as we drove in. He pulled the door open and stood aside for me with his head bowed. I felt an unexplainable happiness and satisfaction rock my body the moment the car drove into the manor of the Blood Moon Pack. I stepped out of the car, my face radiating with a smile over my accomplishment. The Beta smiled when he saw me, excited that I came back alive with the antidote as well. "Alpha Killian is still alive, right?" I asked the moment I faced him. "Yes. We all have been waiting for your arrival," he replied and bowed again. I smiled and turned to face Theo and Liam. "Thank you for protecting me," I muttered. "No, my lady, we should be thanking you for saving our lives," Liam responded. I chuckled and rubbed their broad shoulders, earning shocked gasps from them before walking away with the beta. Everywhere looked quite different even though I had lived there for months. Perhaps, it was the effect

  • Lycan Brothers Want Me   Unexpected place

    VALERIE I narrowed my eyes at her question and scoffed. I was certain that she wasn't happy that I was back. "Shouldn't I be asking you that instead?" I asked, glaring at her. "You didn't seem to get punished for your sassy behavior over there," she muttered."Why? Are you disappointed to find out that none of the traumas I faced there broke me down?" I blurted out, making sure that the mockery was evident in my voice.She scoffed and sat up, flipping her long lustrous hair to the side as she admired her manicure. My lips turned up as I watched her, slowly burning out my patience. "Why am I not in the Blood Moon Pack?" I snapped. "Hush!" She snapped, placing her hand over my heavily glossed lips. "You are in a sacred place. Do not make too much noise," she whispered. I twitched up my lips in disgust but unwillingly obeyed her. I looked around the room and realized that it was a living room. "How is a living room your sacred place?" I asked sassily. She darted her eyes in my

  • Lycan Brothers Want Me   Her end

    VALERIE I rose and stared at her pale body which had already gone limp under the chandelier.I felt no remorse for her or guilt for what I had done. She deserved every bit of the attack and every pain she felt when those glasses sank into her body.I turned around and began to walk away, clutching the pouch, which was the priceless item that I risked my life for.On getting to the door, my heart tightened and fear flashed through me.With shaking hands, I gripped the handles weakly and pushed the door.It pulled open at the slight nudge and my heart skipped in joy.I didn't waste a second more in that hall as I swiftly walked out.The moment my feet stepped out of the tower, I felt a wave coarse through me. A large smile appeared on my face and my feet shook in excitement. I didn't bother taking a look at the tower but proceeded with moving towards the dark waters. I took a deep breath, silently reciting the words that I had seen on the wall. Chills surged through my spine when my

    VALERIE My skin tingled as I waited for the pain to spread across my body, but nothing came. I slowly turned away from the engraved words to look at her. To my astonishment, she was staring right at what I was staring at, bearing the same expression that I had when I saw it. I looked at the words and then back at her, a sinister idea slipping into my mind. I jerked away from the wall and rushed towards the sword, sweeping it up from the floor. She snapped out of the trance she was in and spun around, but before she could restore her stance, my sword was already drawn and aiming for her belly. Before she could parry the attack, I had sunk the blade into her belly. A gasp echoed in the hall and silence fell between us. We stood rooted at a spot, only separated by a sword that was stuck in her belly. She looked up, her eyes dark and rheumy. Blood dripped from her mouth, and her lips shook. Her eyes slowly grew lifeless, and her skin turned pale. "You are the one who

    VALERIE It seemed impossible to believe but there it was, standing gallantly on the stand in the middle of the hall. I felt like all the troubles and fights had finally come to an end. Right before me was the sole reason I was on that forbidden island. With a heart thumping in excitement and joy, I took a step forward and swiftly covered the distance between the stand and me. I paused and stared at the bottle of elixir like it was a priceless trophy. With trembling hands, I reached for it, and the moment my hand grasped it, a feeling that I had never felt before enveloped me. My lips shook and tears gathered in my eyes. Tears of accomplishment and happiness filled my eyes and rolled down my reddened cheeks.I raised it from the stand and stared keenly at it in admiration, picturing Killian sitting up on the bed, alive and well. "I promised to survive. I promise you'll survive," I muttered, a smile spread out across my face. "Are you sure about that?" A familiar voice muttered b
