Lizette’s P.O.V.The sunrise after the fateful night felt brighter than usual, illuminating my world with the light of pure love and acceptance. Although Vincent suggested that I should take a day off, I felt refreshed in the morning. Three hours of sleep at night had replenished my energy level, so I was looking forward to starting my day. My mate was reading a newspaper at the breakfast table when I came downstairs, he swiftly put it down and greeted me.“Good morning, Little Swan.Did you sleep well?”I noticed the shock on the maids’ faces to hear their King’s gentle tone. It was really contradicting to Vincent’s bossy Alpha look that he addressed me with a nickname.Thanking my Goddess in my heart, I responded to him with a smile.“Good morning, Your Majesty. I slept well despite being in a new place.”Vincent parted his lips to say something, but Beta Arlo’s naughty voice halted him in his tracks. “Usually, one sleeps peacefully after great exhaustion.”The maids e
Lizette’s P.O.V “How can you talk to Liz like this?” Flabbergasted by Evangeline’s blabbering, I was in the process of digesting that absurdity when I heard Alpha’s Brandon’s stern voice, ruining my mood altogether. He emerged from the busy crowd in the cafeteria and snarled at her. “Liz is my friend, a part of the Silver Claw Pack before being a mate to King Vincent. You can’t insult her in her own pack, Miss...” “Evangeline!” Unfazed by his growling, she stretched her hand for a handshake. “It seems that you have a lot of admirers, Sister. With no wolf or education, at least, you are equipped with the weapon of seduction.” Balling my fingers into fist, I wanted to punch Evangeline in her face, but the silver hue in her eye refrained me from doing so. She was a powerful lycan, and must be trained with all sorts of fighting techniques. It would be a suicide attempt for me to attack her. Looking around, I desperately searched for Harry and Lucas, maybe they could shut Evangel
Lizette’s P.O.V. “Arlo, can’t you keep your mouth shut?” Vincent’s thunderous growl shook the entire room as he bared his claws at his Beta, racing my tiny heart. I had to intervene before he could lash out at him. “It’s not a big deal, Your Majesty!” Circling my arms around his neck, I stood closer to him. “I just wish to know why you give up so early? From what I have read online, Lycans have to wait for centuries in order to meet their soulmates.” Vincent’s warm hand supporting my back brought a smile on my face, he pulled me closer and said, “Lycans are indeed unfortunate in this department. Finding a soulmate is harder than searching for a needle in a haystack. And mostly, men go rogue or develop obsessive behavior due to loneliness. Even my dad has to wait one hundred and fifty years to finally meet my mom.” Vincent’s solemn tone became sad all of a sudden as his grip around me tightened, he spoke dolefully. “After my dad’s death, I had to leave everything and take o
Lizette’s P.O.V. The box of sexy lingerie was carefully stacked on the corner, considering my shyness. However, Vincent didn’t know how much I was craving him. Until now, we had just kissed on dates and snuggled occasionally, avoiding physical intimacy at any cost. It was a fact that the attraction that we felt was undeniable, and we would end up making love in our first try for sure. But Liana gave me an expert opinion on this issue, she was concerned about my mated life. “Being mates doesn’t mean that you will mark each other for the very first time, Liz. Try first base, second base slowly, and then get rid of unnecessary shyness and fear. Trust me, Liz! You will never wish to waste such a beautiful time due to unreasonable restraints.” As I was the one who proposed no marking, I decided to take the initiative, talking about this matter would help me to understand Vincent’s perspective. After all, he had to control his lycan from marking. My wolf was toothless and clawless,
Lizette’s P.O.V. Vincent straightened back up while I was still coming down from my high. I breathed in sharply as he put his fingers, which were inside me a few moments ago, to his mouth and licked my juices, cleaning them off. Honestly speaking, I had seen this in adult movies and hadn’t found the least bit sexy, but this Greek god had made it look damn hot, throbbing my core with a newfound heat. Just watching him lick away made me imagine all the pleasures that tongue could bring me. Vincent raised his brow, and smirked slyly, “I think I have finally found a way to make you scream, Little Swan.” This low chuckle sent vibrations all over my body as he leaned on me once more. Feeling his hungry gaze roaming over my bare skin, I didn’t feel any speck of disrespect or frustration. Instead, I felt safe even in this vulnerable position, it was everything like I ever imagined. My mate, his loving gestures, and the overwhelming sense of security surrounding my existence, this perf
Lizette’s P.O.V. “Shifting and combat? Are you sure?” The receptionist at the main office raised her brow, her mocking tone dismissed my request. “There’s no seat for you in shifting and combat class!” Returning to her keyboard, she started clicking, ignoring me completely. Her plain refusal disappointed me, I sighed while thinking of some way to get in. It was my last semester and multiple rejections had already wasted my time. I couldn’t let this chance slide. “But I can do better, ma’am. Please give me a chance to prove myself. I’ll ...” Ma’am Jess threw a dirty glare at me, cutting me off sharply. “The students who can shift are eligible to enter this class, Lizette. Our academy isn’t responsible for your loss of limb and eye in physical practice.” My inability to shift once again put me to shame, my eyes burned with tears as I literally begged her, “Ma’am, I deserve to be in the class. Please ...” Ma’am Jess disregarded my pleas and turned to re
Lizette’s P.O.V. “A mistake?” My heart forgot to beat for a moment as my mate chewed his words hatefully, sending shivers down my spine. Alpha spoke out of the blue, “I, Brandon Cameron, Alpha of the Silver Claw Pack, reject you, Gamma Lizette Bancroft, as my mate and the future Luna of the pack.” A volcano of hatred rumbled as its molten lava burned my soul, throbbing my heart with the pain of a thousand arrows piercing it. This rejection was like being struck by lightning on a clear, sunny day, crumbling down my world around me. My friend, my secret crush, and my mate had rejected me on a whim, how could he just do it to me? Suppressing my shrieks, I stumbled over my words to ask, “W-why? How can you reject me, Brandon?” Alpha was taken aback by this query, as if he wasn’t expecting it after his rash decision. “It’s obvious, Liz. How can an abomination like you can be my Luna?” Although his harsh words had initiated the process of rejection, he kept his Alpha demea
Lizette’s P.O.V. “The mating ball will change your life for sure, Liz!” My mom’s words were ringing in my mind when I went to the academy the next morning. However, my BFF, Liana grabbed my arm at the entrance. “How are you feeling now, Liz? Sam told me about you and Stella. I tried your number; it was switched off. Where were you?” She slightly lowered her glasses and looked at me like her eyes did an x-ray of my face, I found it hard to lie. “I went to see my mom. She gave me injection, so I am feeling fine now..” As she was aware of my family issues, my short response satisfied her. Liana looked around and whispered in my ears. “Did you smell your mate, Liz?” A hard knot constricted my throat as the scenes of rejection tormented me again, I barely smiled and shook my head. “No, not yet.” “Hurray!” Liana clapped and announced gleefully. “Then we can go to the ball together.” Liana was the daughter of the Pack’s Beta; her rank was like a savior
