Lycan Prince’s Fated Mate 82: Alfred
EZRADeep male laughter welcomes me into the warm office, along with the scent of expensive cologne and tobacco. The room is a bit hazy with smoke, not that it is a problem for me.“Ah, Ezra. What brings you by?" My father’s voice is cheery as he speaks and I immediately know something is wrong.Call it intuition, or maybe just the fact that I know my father so well but I know something is off, and I’ll figure it out before I leave.“I thought we were having a meeting with parliament,” I try to keep everything I’m thinking out of my voice and I do well because it comes out light, like you would expect a son to be talking to his father that he adores. Even though I feel like barfing in my mouth.I look around the room, trying to see the face of the man he is with but thanks to the smoke, I can’t make him well and the fact that he is giving me his back doesn’t help at all.“Oh, the meeting was adjourned. You would know that if you listened to me or came when I called for you,” he looks

PHOENIX“Are you sure you’re okay?” Kiara asks me for the tenth time since she came here half an hour ago. it doesn’t matter how much I assure her that yes, I am fine and nothing is wrong, she keeps asking.It is because she sees right through my lies, but I can’t even tell her what I’m feeling because I can’t make sense of them either. Just this strange feeling I woke up with and it hasn’t left since in the morning.Prince Ezra was gone when I woke up, though I wasn’t surprised. We've slipped into a pattern without knowing and I know he has to work, as much as he avoids meeting with his father. And he mentioned parliament last night so he must have gone to prepare.Or is that why I feel so troubled? They are trying to put us apart and after hearing how he feels about me, and how much I care for him, that seems like the worst possible thing that can happen to me right now.“Don’t tell me you’re fine because I know you are not,” Kiara shuts me off before I even give her the ready-made

EZRAAfter meeting Alfred, I understood I had more people to worry about than just parliament and my father. He seems like a snake and snakes are untrustworthy, they are also dangerous. Which means, he will never be around my mate.He left my father and I in the office, with a flimsy excuse of having a meeting and already making plans with his pilot so he had to leave. They had another silent conversation with my father before he left, with a smile that made the hairs on the back of my neck stand, directed at me.I whipped my head to my father’ direction the same time he brought the almost exhausted cigar to his mouth. He takes in a drag and blows it to the side. My nose scrunches in disgust at the smell.“You’re finally ready to meet me or is it something else?” he holds the cigar to me. I eye the thing like I expect it to impale me before shaking my head.“Who is that man?” I change the subject before he even starts.The fact that Alfred looked familiar but I’m sure I don’t know him

EZRAMy father’s words take a little too long to register in my head, but when they do, I have to brace myself by placing my hand on the wall closest to me to keep me up. My legs feel like they can’t carry my weight.“Really Ezra, how long did you think you can keep this to yourself?” he asks with a shake of his head.I open my mouth to speak, to defend why I did that or even deny that he is right. My reaction already gave it away but I can still try.“It is not what you think,” I start with that, for the lack of better words to use.“So you did know?”I nod. My father’s sighs, disappointment written on his face.“Ezra, you know you can’t marry someone from an unknown background, it is too risky.” His voice is soft.My father watches me with an understanding I haven’t gotten from him in so long that I almost don’t know what to do with it.I’m seeing glimpses of him I used to know before my mum died and he went back to his old self. The ruthless lycan king the world knew. It is why the

PHOENIXI notice something is off with Prince Ezra when he comes back. He is a little late but I don’t disturb him about that. I don’t want to be one of those people that stress their partners and we’re still pretty new so yeah.What worries me though is how he seems to be lost in his thoughts, he looks lost. No scratch that, he is worried which has me worried. I don’t know since when his moods affected me so much, seeing him like this, I want to find whatever disrupted his peace and get rid of it.“Have you eaten dinner?” I ask him, sitting beside him on the bed.He is not doing anything, just looking lost in thought. He grumbles something I don’t catch, that is enough to tell me he doesn’t want to talk. He has never acted like this, even when he was stressed so I’m a little confused. I tell myself not to crowd him too much.I get up and move to the couch then I lay down, thinking back to my conversation with Kiara. She believes in me so much and trusts that I will be good at this…th

PHOENIXEzra and I didn’t have a solid plan on how exactly we are going to prove everyone wrong. The only progress we’ve made since last night that we had that conversation was, he got me to stop calling him prince Ezra, now it is just Ezra. It will take a little getting used to.And I am invited to their family dinner this week because he wants me to meet his father officially. He wants to go about making everything official.That did not make me panic at all. Cue nervous laughter.He’d laughed it off when I told him I was scared and nervous, anyone would if they were told they were meeting their boyfriend’s father. Wait, is he even my boyfriend?We haven’t talked about that. It seems like a tiny detail when I remember I am meeting the king.The LYCAN KING!!!! I am panicking!I couldn’t wait for morning so I would at least tell someone else. That is why, immediately after I got out of bed, I bounded to the servant’s quarters. I left Ezra in the bed today. He was surprised when I told

PHOENIXAccording to Kiara, who has now turned into a therapist, making people like you is not hard. The easiest way to go about this is to know what it is they like, talk about it and then boom, besties.It sounded crazy, but am I going to use it because that is my only hope? Yes.For the past hour, we have been going through articles and books about the king, trying to find what he likes. There aren’t many and since I am not going to cook—I don’t know how to—I have to look for another way to get him to like me. The one thing he likes very much that has been consistent throughout our reading was his late wife and the Luna Queen, also Ezra’s mother.Their love story seems magical, the young wolf from an average family and the ruthless lycan king. He was pretty much forced to marry her and they didn’t meet until the wedding day, only for them to find out they are mates. Fate has a way of making people they want together.Like Ezra and I. He is not my mate but I am sure we have another

EZRANate stumbles into the office, barely holding himself up. I get up so fast, my chair falls with a loud thud.“Nate!” I scream in excitement, rushing to hug him. He steps aside as soon as I get close holding his hand up.“No, every part of me hurts.” He groans, the sound is pure agony.That gives me pause and I take him in. The shirt that might have been white when he first wore it is a combination of brown and maroon. There are a few dark splotches that I know are blood just from the strong metallic stench. I was so focused on him being back that I didn’t pay attention to that.His hair is also matted with dried blood and dirt, his jeans are torn and the front of his shoe is missing. He looks like he was dug from a hole.“What happened to you?” I ask, watching him with worry.“Call the doctor and tell her it is an emergency.” I tell Jerry over my shoulder, crouching low to help my friend. “Can I hold your shoulder, it would be better if you lean on me.”He makes a noncommittal so

Lycan Prince’s Fated Mate 160: New Era
PHOENIX It felt like I had been sleeping for years on end, and when I finally woke up, my entire body felt fatigued. Too heavy for me to lift even a finger. Ezra was beside me, he was wide awake and he was just watching me. I was aware of his presence, even in my unconscious state and that just made me realize how extremely lucky I am to have him in my life. “Hi,” he whispers, moving closer and pulling my body to his. I sigh when I feel his warmth surround me. He felt like peace, like home. “Hey,” my voice was weak from lack of use so I cleared my throat and tried again. it wasn’t any better not that he seemed to mind. “I feel like I have been sleeping for years.” I mutter, stretch and yawn as my bones make satisfactory pops all around. I felt slightly better after that stretch. “Three days,” Ezra says, his voice gentle and calm. I knew something was wrong from the way he sounded. Pushing back the heaviness I was feeling and the voice in my head telling me this was going to b
Lycan Prince’s Fated Mate 159: Goodbye
EZRA We have Alejandro and Hank in custody now, with audio and video proof of them admitting to all the things they had done.Yesterday had taken multiple unexpected turns but it turned out perfectly well if you asked me. I just had one thing to cross off my list before I can finally be at peace.I’m careful as I get out of bed. Phoenix is sleeping beside me. She has been out since last night when we came back with Nate and the cars they brought with them. I refused any medical checkup and instead stayed by my mate's side until she was cleared.The doctor, who thankfully knew what was happening, had stepped in for their actual doctor. They couldn’t deal with her face to face beforehand since they didn’t want their identity to be known, which made it easier for that to happen. A little overhaul and show of power by Nate had the actual doctor spilling, which allowed them to bring our doctor in.I was only able to alert Nate of what was happening but the second they drugged me, our conn
Lycan Prince’s Fated Mate 158: Anecdotes
PHOENIX Alejandro is your typical bad guy, who would sit for hours and tell you how he came up with his perfect plans, the steps he followed, the moves you made that made it easy for him to win.I think I fell asleep five times during his anecdote, and each time I woke up, I prayed he would be done but my prayers weren't answered. We were all exhausted. In fact, he was the only one that didn’t seem tired of hearing himself.I started to feel sorry for him, because he clearly had issues. I couldn’t pinpoint where it stemmed from but he was more than due for therapy. And thanks to his torture, we all might too.“Enough.” Alpha Hank growls, getting off the wall he’d been resting on during his brother’s long history lesson.I have to admit, that is the one twist to the story I didn’t see coming. And though it doesn’t seem that significant, something tells me we need to be careful. I still have those dreams I’m not sure I translated well.At least, I feel better knowing Ezra is going to b
Lycan Prince’s Fated Mate 157: Brothers
PHOENIX“Are you okay?” the doctor asks, looking over her shoulder in fear.“Do I look okay to you?” I mutter drily. I know I sound like a bitch but I couldn’t care less what she thought of me right now.She heaves a sigh and comes to stand in front me, she rethinks and immediately steps back, putting a little space between us. I only rolled my eyes because if I wanted to get to her, I would have since when Alpha Hank and Sibel’s dad were here. I’m not scared of them, even in the slightest bit.I’m biding my time because if I let whatever I’m feeling crackling under my skin take over, then I would rather it be worth it. I have a feeling there will be no going back from there.“You’re right, that is not the right question.” She huffs out a breath.I watched her, trying to look past the anger I’m feeling at her betrayal, to try and give her the benefit of the doubt but it doesn’t work. Maya just wants to tear her apart and it is taking everything I have in me to stop her from acting on
Lycan Prince’s Fated Mate 156: Bad Guy Movie Moment
EZRAJax is losing his mind not knowing where Phoenix is or how she is managing.I’m calm for some reason, because I know she is alright. I don’t know how I know it, but I just di=o.‘Calm down, she is fine.’ I reply in a calming way, hoping it would help him relax but he just growls at me too. I sigh and throw my head back then almost immediately regret it when the wood dug into the back of my neck.They could have at least gotten comfortable chairs if they wanted to kidnap me. The chair is the most uncomfortable I have ever sat in.‘How can you be calm at a time like this?!’‘I trust Phoenix, if she was in danger she would have reached out to me by now.’ He just grunts. Not believing what I’m saying, or more accurately it wasn’t enough to make him calm down.‘And how can you be of help? Last I checked, you’re tied up.’‘I have you,’ I say with a small laugh. ‘I’m kidding.’ I immediately add before he does something dumb like try and hit me. Which is impossible but annoyance is a gre
Lycan Prince’s Fated Mate 155: Betrayal
PHOENIX I was tied up. It was the first thing I noticed when I woke up.I panicked immediately and tried to fight against the restraints but it was pointless. I didn’t even think to check to see if the person that has me tied up is still here. I just knew I needed to get out of here, I didn’t know how but I’ll be damned if I stay here for any moment longer.Ezra! The realization makes me stop struggling. I look around the room frantically, trying to see if I can see him but I’m alone.Everywhere is dark, if not for my wolf vision, I wouldn’t have been able to even make out anything.I’m on a wooden chair that is not comfortable in the least and my hands are tied behind me, so tightly that I fear that if I move the wrong way, I will pull them right out of their sockets.I couldn’t believe Jake’s dad was doing this. I didn’t even understand what he meant by the power I had was his. I never wanted it, but now that he so obviously wants it so he could hurt more people. He would have to k
Lycan Prince’s Fated Mate 154: Past Meets Present
PHOENIXI thought I was hearing things when I heard my old alpha’s voice. Jake’s dad. But when I turned, almost completely confident that I would find a different person, I saw him and my blood immediately went cold.Ezra’s hands tighten around me like he could feel the same negative energy I feel rolling off the man in waves.For the entire time I dated Jake, I wouldn’t say we were particularly close with his dad. I stayed away from him as much as I could because he just had this scary aura I didn’t like. Now, I’m seeing it as a different thing, especially as he bares his teeth in what I assume was supposed to be a smile.“What are you doing here?” I ask, my voice shaking slightly.He looks down at me, literally, and his lips turn down in distaste. He never really liked me but he never openly hated me. He just made it clear that he didn’t care what his son did with me. He looked like he wanted to slit my throat right now.“Shu—”“I would be careful how I finished that sentence if I w
Lycan Prince’s Fated Mate 153: Territories
EZRA Multiple times, I almost stopped Phoenix so I could kiss her and many more things. I managed to get my wolf to shut the hell up. This is extremely important for her—for both of us and our life. Our future.“Do you know where you’re going?” I ask her, circling my arm around her waist and pulling her to my side. She stretches and covers her mouth with her hand, yawning loudly.“I think I do,” she rests her head on my shoulder. I kiss the top of her head and hum in response.“I should have let you sleep more,” I murmured, steering her away from a tree root she hadn’t noticed.“I’m fine.” I only hum in response.She is stubborn but I loved her determination. I don’t know how she is doing it but i commend her hard work and efforts.Dealing with uncertainty and not knowing what to do or what is going to happen sucks. I’m unable to focus on anything, my mind is constantly running, thinking of things that could go wrong or another threat toward her.We have gone far from the main buildi
Lycan Prince’s Fated Mate 152: Uncover Secrets
PHOENIX “Are you okay?” Ezra asks, his voice shaky as he holds both my shoulders. He wraps his arms around me, looks over my body, he is touching every part of me like he doesn’t even know where to check or where to stop.I’m not looking at him, instead I’m staring at his back, right at the large imposing building I have never seen before. We are not at the palace, this place looked unfamiliar but I feel like I have been here before. I feel the same feeling of déjà vu and I shake my head.“Phoenix?” I look back at Ezra, his amber eyes are filled with worry and he is panicking. I can read it in his body language.“I’m fine.” I’m surprised by how steady my voice sounds. “What happened?”I move out of his hold, a pained look crosses over his eyes but he doesn’t reach out for me, instead he stood to his feet when I did the same. Still standing at a safe distance, he reaches for my hand which I don’t offer.The way he looked like a scorned child made me feel bad but I don’t let that emoti
