Two weeks later."Are you sure what you are saying?" I asked the pack doctor in a panic, as he revealed something heart-depleting to me. My pulse stirred even as I felt Abby touch me in solace. It's been one month plus and still, nothing positive has happened. Just fucks. No pups to show for it. It occurred like that day I heard my parents say they picked me. I came to be afraid. I had issues with my reproductive system?"So, Doctor, what can be done about this?" Abby inquired on my behalf, seeing as I was still reeling from the terror of the news."I think this is something between the King and Queen to decide." He sat forth with his hands entwined on the desk in a thoughtful stance. "From what I saw, I think it's mostly as a result of dissimilar genes. Since the Queen is a werewolf, performing the ritual of purification and full transformation might help alleviate the problem.""What kind of transformation are you talking about, Doctor?" I examined him in anxiety, fright reticent i
(Ashton’s pov)"Yah!!" I clamoured, tightening my fist around the reins as I kicked the stirrup of the black giant Striker and the resounding slap of my Lunge Whip landed on his black thick skin.The act ignited its energy as it lifted off its front hooves and came down hard, thundering towards the barrier the linesmen had placed subsequently for this purpose, leaping over it smoothly and only coming to an end at the other side of the rope. "Good boy." I chuckled softly, releasing my hold on the reins to let it glide to a slow strut. We have been at it since early morning when I came out of the palace.With the games coming up and the race being included, I was doing everything possible as well as investing into this to make sure it turned out excellently. This was the first time a game of this nature would be carried out in the Lycan Kingdom and I anticipate that after this game, hopefully, my subjects would enjoy it so much that they would take an interest in horseracing.I fell in
(Gwen’s pov)“Let's take a break, everyone!" I bellowed, bending over in quick pants from exhaustion. "I think we should retire for the day." I checked my time. "The sun is already becoming too hot." "I thought you will never say that," Abby spoke up, ambling towards me. Like me, the awry lines on her forehead showed how tired she was.We have been here since we returned from the clinic. Working endlessly at the arena. Today, we came for weeding. It appears since last year when they used it, they didn't put it in order. So, the place was messed up. "I'm sorry I took so long.” I put on a ghost of a smile. "I thought we will be able to beat the time and finish up before the sun...blasted." We began making our way towards the podium to pick our stuff as every other person made preparation to leave."It will take a week to get everything together before calling in the logistic team to finish up." While she spoke, her eyes roved the yard."I'm happy we have done a lot." I placed my right
(Gwen’s pov)At first, I was dumbstruck by the knowledge that Ashton kissed me. He hasn't done that before. This evening it looked as if something had taken possession of his body and was making him do questionable things. Albeit, my nerves cascaded skittishly in different directions, my stomach knotting tightly at the euphoric sensation of feeling him on me. His left hand held the back of my neck in place, his fingers digging severely into my skin. It was painful but combined with the heady sensation spiralling through my body, made it bearable. In a flash, I was plucked off the wardrobe and hurled across the room towards the chaise lounge where he pushed me and I fell backwards until my ass touched the soft leather, my hands going to the two sides for support.I tipped my head up to peer directly into his eyes as tiny gusts of ragged air elicited from my mouth. Up and down, the staccato beat of my chest thundered. Softly. At first, he was standing in front of me, watching me thro
(Gwen’s pov)“He is refusing to talk to me through the link, Gwen, I swear it.” Abby repaonded worriedly for the second time. “But it's been three days,” I exclaimed. I'm losing my mind. It's been three days since we made out in my room and I made those statements. Since then, Ashton left the palace. I was in my super high that I didn't know when I said them. However, the instant I said them, Ashton had dropped me hard on the floor, the reverent gentility leaving him to be substituted with the cold animal I had come to know.When I tried asking him what the problem was, he loomed above me like the devil Salsa as he wagged his forefinger in my face, his face like death as he spoke with no emotions, “you are nothing but a fuckmate to me and if you think what we did would change anything, then you must be stupider than I thought.” He had stepped back to pick his towel off the floor, marched to the wardrobe to quickly dress up and the next thing he stormed out of the room, leaving me th
Going out again wasn't in my plan today, albeit when Tyler insisted-saying we were not training today, I knew I had no choice but to go out with him. "Where are we going?" I asked for the umpteenth time as he drove at a high speed through the busy highway. From his radio, the soft rhythm of Billie Eilish and Khalid 'Lovely' drifted off, conveying from me an incessant urge to cry. It was so emotional. As if connecting to my current dilemma. "I told you to be patient." He winked at me impishly and swung to the right, causing me to grasp my seat in panic and tossed him a death glow."Do you intend to kill me, Tyler?"A rich sound resonated in the car from him as he stabilized the steering and glanced briefly at me. "Don't be scared, werewolf. I am a Lycan, I have speed naturally.""That doesn't mean you should be reckless." I blew a stray hair off my face and further reached out to shove it behind my ear. "Do you realize this is the slowest acceleration in the history of a Lycan?" He
(Ashton pov)"I told you this wasn't supposed to happen again!" I roared in unrestrained rage, punching the wall to leave a big gash aftermath. "Do you know what you have done?"Merit lay on the bed, uncaring, One of her legs crossed over the other seductively trying to lure me back. It was tempting I must say, however, this was something I didn't want to pursue. For her own good."You didn't complain earlier when you were thrusting fervently into me like your life depended on it, Ashton." She drawled casually as she climbed off the bed and sashayed in my direction. She didn't care that we were committing an atrocity and that infuriated me. "In fact, you repeatedly called me the best woman you have ever fucked and would never get tired of me or my pussy." Then that was a lie. Even now as she said, I can feel my skin crawl in irritation and denial, wondering how I might have said such an abhorrent thing, if ever I did say it."You have to get out," I said slowly. Not looking at her. I
(Gwen pov)“Oh, Tyler, today was totally amazing,” I let out amidst tiny giggles, alighting from the car to slam the door. I held my small black bag with my two hands as I waited for him to join me. “Though, it started with a little...skirmish, but at the end, I enjoyed myself.” We began making our way in, Tyler’s smile stealing the breath away from me.“I'm glad I was able to make up for my fuck-up.” He shrugged casually, giving thumbs-up to the guards as we entered inside.The butler was not there. Thank goddess. I didn't have the energy for his superfluous pleasantries. Most times I feel they are fake. Or not. “Really, Ty, you are an amazing person, you know that?” His dark brown hair fell over his face as he inclined his head to mock-wink me. “Everyone here is already cuddling up to you.” And that was the truth. Just a few weeks here, you will think he grew up in this place.It all proves how humane he was. After we left ‘TEE’S SWIMMERS’, he felt very bad for not putting my initi
