**LYCAN'S POV**
Melo was furious that Ricky had the guts to slap her in front of his bodyguards, thus, belittling her. She wasn't going to take it at all. She had to remind him of her position in his life. So first thing the next morning, she went to his room. “Who is there?” Ricky questioned when several knocks landed on his door. “Melo” she answered. Ricky groaned. When will this woman let him be… He thought. “Come in” he avowed. He had calmed down from the past day's experience, and although he wasn't in the mood to talk, he still had to listen to whatever Melo had to say. “My lord” Melo greeted with a bow, going in to meet him. Ricky was sitting shirtless on his bed, his amazing body glittering in the early morning sun. Melo couldn't help but drool. “Are you just going to stand there and drool over me, or will you tell me why you have come to disturb me this early morning?” Ricky questioned, running his fingers through his hair. Melo frowned. “That's it Ricky! Everything I do seems to be
**Third-Person POV** What she didn't know was that the Lycan king didn't give a fuck who was getting hurt, he was selfish and cold-hearted. “What did you just say?” Ricky questioned, surprised that she had the guts to talk back at him. He had warned her never to talk until he asked her to. He became furious and slapped her across the face. I felt down and wept. “Strip… Slave!” He ordered. “I… I can't. I can't. Please. I'll die” I wept, unable to move. “Who gives a fuck if you die, You wouldn't be the first one to die. I can replace you whenever I choose!” He roared at me and dragged me up by my arm. I shrieked and shivered. “Are you trying to disobey me, Do you know the price of disobeying me?" He asked, rather too close to my face. She felt his breath on my face, She could feel his anger. But didn't dare look up. “I'm sorry but… I can't” She was brave enough to say what she just said. He grinned. “Buster!!!” He screamed, and the huge man who had brought Laura from th
**Third-Person POV**“Ricky, I have been trying to talk to you. What you're doing to Laura is not fair. She's not an animal, she's just a weak Omega. You are being cruel to her.” Paulina complained to Ricky. She stared at him with tears in her eyes, but he didn't show any atom of sympathy.“Look Paulina, I respect you a lot, one of my one most trusted Beta. You know that, and I won't raise my voice at you. But Laura is my slave, I bought her with my hard-earned money, and she is supposed to obey me, if she goes against me, she'll be punished.” he said in his husky tone.“But Ricky."“Paulina. I don't want to talk about this again. I have a conference party to attend right now. So excuse me.” He said and walked away after grabbing his coat.Paulina wept at what her beloved son had turned into. Even though she wasn't his biological mother, she still loved him like a son. He used to be the nicest boy in the world, but now… He doesn't care about anything or anyone. Ricky got into the car
**Third-Person POV**Andy stood on the balcony, staring down at the fountain in the middle of the compound. But his thoughts were somewhere else, he found himself thinking about Cassey. The beautiful woman who had given him a challenge.“Don't sleep with a woman for a week” she said. But he scoffed.“There's no way I'm going to stop what I do best because of her” he tried to convince himself. He had sworn never to have anything to do with love, that was way back when his first elder brother was murdered by his Beta. He abhorred love and anything that had to do with.However now, what was happening to him? Why couldn't he stop thinking about this woman? Has she cast a spell on him? Her beautiful smile had somehow left a mark on him.He tried, he tried to get rid of her face which had been plastered on his mind, but nothing worked. “Andy!” Ricky had to yell. He has been calling him for a few seconds now, and he didn't hear.“You called me?” He rushed into the room to meet Ricky, who w
LAURA POVI was curious about what she had seen last night. Why was my master behaving the way he did? What kind of nightmare could have possibly made him twist and turn on the bed like that?I didn't care about him or his troubles, I hated him. But I really wanted to know what was happening. I had always been a curious right from childhood, and it had gotten me into trouble several times.“Laura, I brought your food” Paulina entered my room carrying a bowl of hot soup. I gagged when I smelt the concoction.“What is that? I'm not eating that” I folded my arms and pouted. Paulina smiled and dropped the bowl beside the bed. She sat next to me and gently inspected the wounds on my back.“Ouch, that hurts!” I pouted when Paulina touched her wound.“Oh, sorry dear. But how do you expect the wounds to heal without the proper medication?” She asked and I hissed out softly.“Heal, What's the point? My master is going to go ahead and inflict more wounds anyway.” I rolled my eyes. Then I remem
MELO POV“What more do you want? I've given you virtually everything I own. My money, my wealth, and my body. My inheritance has been transferred to you. Do you want me to die before you stop blackmailing me?” I caught myself crying in front of my tormentor.He was my worst nightmare. He was the only one who knew the secret that I had managed to hide so well for many years. I regret this everyday, that he caught me.“I won't ever leave you alone Melo, what you did so many years ago, the atrocity you committed years ago, affected me too. And it will haunt you, I will be your shadow and I will torment you, until you die” he grinned widely. Tears fell from my eyes. I wished I could stab him… But I was surrounded by his guards. One wrong move, they would blow my head off.“Please, please, I beg you. Don't reveal anything to anyone. Especially not Ricky! Please!” I fell at his feet, pleading. He was the one person, apart from Ricky, that could make me beg like that.“Get out, Melo and b
RICKY'S POV“What do you mean by that? Are you trying to say that you haven't found out anything about who tried to burn my warehouse?!” I barked at the petite man standing before him. The detective shivered, his shirt was already drenched in his sweat. Fear had overwhelmed him because he knew what I was capable of doing if he didn't get me what I wanted.“Mr Mart. We are trying our best, but we haven't found anything. But the new security system has been installed and if the perpetrator strikes again, we'll catch him red-handed” the detective said, as calm as he could. I turned to him, flashing a deadly look at the detective, who immediately looked away.“You better find him, or you'll pay for his crime.” I ordered.“Rest assured, we will find whoever it is, sir.” The detective answered boldly, and I dismissed him.I was furious. It's been days now, and the fool who dared to intrude into my warehouse has not been found. I was restless because somebody was planning evil against me,
GOVA'S POV “I heard that the master's warehouse was burnt last night.” I said to Laura and she scoffed.“Serves him right… He deserves every pain he must be feeling right now.” Laura answered, she had developed an intense hatred for the Lycan King and wished to see his downfall.I sighed.I had come to give Laura some food and also offered to braid her big red hair. “You know, he wasn't always this cruel. Back when we were kids, he used to be such a sweet boy, but I don't know what made him to change…" I asserted.“Still doesn't give him the right to treat anyone the way he does.” Laura snapped.“You're right… It doesn't”. I continued braiding her hair, and we talked about other things. *******Cassey entered her car with two men, they were assigned to guard her by her brother, Rhett. They were heading to the office that morning when they were cornered by a black jeep.“Get down!!” The men in masks yelled, firing gunshots into the air. Cassey and her unarmed bodyguards got down fro
Laura watched all her enemies being put in their place, it was a long journey she had to fight and seated at the large balcony with a good view of the entire pack, she could not help but reminisce on how it all started. First she had to go through pains in the hands of Uncle Lucio after the brutal death of her parents which fate played an ill luck on her. Going to college was not an easy one but Laura thought that all this was finally going to be over when she found out that the Mighty Lycan king feared by everyone was her mate. But just when everything was about falling into place at the marking ceremony, he rejected her before everyone and left her there alone as he fled the pack, Laura felt her heart shattered into tiny pieces that moment, all hope was lost, she loved this man to the moon and back, she thought that this was the moon goddess way of compensating her for all the pain that she had to go through and yet it was just another series of pain. Some glared at her with mock
LAURA Once the doctor left my chamber, I summoned for Elliot who came at once. “My Luna, you sent for me?”“Yes Elliot, were you able to find Gwen?”“Yes we did just as she was trying to escape from the pack through an unknown dungeon, she is now in the cell but there is something else that I think you should know”He spoke and I immediately sat upright, my eyes filled with curiosity. “What happened, is the king alright?”“Yes Luna, he is fine, it is about your maid servant Rosette who is pregnant”“I asked that she remain locked up in her room but have access to everything that her baby might need which included foods and good medication, I am sorry Elliot but I can only release her when I am certain that she won't cause problem for us, did she do anything wrong?”“She was served her meal early this morning and with the cutlery, she committed suicide!”“What!! Why would she kill herself, was she that desperate for power?”“I am sorry Luna, but it is not your fault, you did everythin
LAURAI sat there with all the strains of my bones so weak while I watched Ricky exhaust the last energy in him, he had been tortured by Killian when he first arrived at the riverside and I knew that it was only a matter of time before he finally exhausted his energy. Killian seeing that the rogues were all down and Ricky was contending with the last opponent, immediately rushed over to my side. “Hello Laura, I guess this is where we finally say our goodbye, it was beautiful having you as my Luna and having to relish your body at all times, but this is where it all ends”His words came as a whisper as he tried not to be heard by Ricky, he stretch forth his hand to grab my neck but I bite his hand so hard with the last strain of energy I had in me. “Ahhh!!! You witch!! ” He slam me hard on the face as I fell down, blood dripping from my mouth due to how weak I was, but as he lift his hand to hit me again, Ricky arrives just in time and with one kick, Killian fell off the ground but
RICKY Slowly they came down the hills and was only a few miles away from where I stood with my claws lightly piercing at Killian. My eyes drifted down to her thighs and my Lycan was filled with rage that it was so difficult to control him. Laura's thighs were covered in bruises, it was no doubt that she had been tortured beyond the way anyone could endure. “Why did you had to torture her to this extent, was it necessary, your feud was with me, Laura had no involvement in it”“That is so low even from you, you kept having sex with her knowing that she was my wife, mine and not yours because she stopped being yours the moment you left her so she is involve in every rage that I feel, every pain that I feel is because of the both of you so I am going to keep torturing her until there is nothing left of her”“You were the reason why I had to leave the woman that I love and yet you went ahead to take her as your Luna just so you can spite me, that is how low you can stoop Killian, so for
RICKYAfter waiting for a while and listening to Killian taunting me, there still wasn't sign of Laura, she was the reason I came and I had to act as soon as possible. For Killian, he was Certain that those chains could hold me captive for as long as he wanted, but I was the Lycan and wouldn't remain under his captive. I shifted to my Lycan form and stride towards him, the fear filled his eyes and despite how strong he use to be, the fear could not let him react. The more I came forward, the more he was drifting backward, trying to get away, but my mighty arm clasped onto his neck, I held on him tightly as he gasp unable to breath properly. “You are not going to kill me, you do not have the balls” A disdainful smile filled his expression admit the pain he was feeling from my grip. “I see… Then let's give a try and see if I am going to murder you this time around or not!” My deep voice echoed through the woods like a ranging torrent, my griped on him became more fierce and the fear
KILLIANWe arrived at the river side and spent the night there in the car, but the next day, we were woken by the sound of movement around the woods, slowly I unfurl my eyes to the sight of Ricky walking over to the river side. Although he was still afar, but no doubt it was him. “Gwen! Ricky is here, go and scan around the environment” I called onto her and she immediately stepped out of the car and hurried into the woods. “Looks like he still got some regards for you after all, here I was thinking that he has bailed on you” I teased but as she drifted her eyes over to the woods, a deep frown spread across her face. “Now I am going to enjoy you watch how I end his life, he survived my attack the first time and the toxic, do you think that he is going to be able to survive this time around, I am sorry but the moon goddess won't be on his side this time around”“Killian please, you have me, just go ahead and murder me or do whatever you want, torture me as long as you want, I am rea
LAURA Gwen and Melo was such close friends when Melo was alive, they dreamt so much of the day Melo will becomes the Luna, but I came into the picture and took that dream away her. “Although I know it doesn't count or matter to you right now, but I just thought that I should say it, I am sorry Gwen that my feelings for Ricky had to interfere with everything you girls had planned out for life, but he was my mate, there was so much bound between us and there was nothing that I could do, even if I were to start again, I would fall in love with Ricky again and again and never regret a moment of if”“Doesn't it hurt you that he killed your parents, they were innocent and yet he murdered them in cold blood”“At first I was angry, but after thinking about it for a while, I realize that although he might be the all powerful Lycan king that was feared by everyone within Zion pack, but he was still permitted to make mistakes, he isn't perfect but his love for me is something that I can't den
RICKY I could barely close my eyes for the rest of the night, my eyes filled with worry while I waited for the guards to come back hoping for some positive news, but there was nothing from him the entire night and everywhere felt cold and shallow without Laura by my side. At dawn, I was woken by the servants knocking on the door, they stepped in once I opened the door for them, a new collection of outfit set out for me on the bed. “My king, please pick an outfit of your choice from all of this!”“Are the guards that left the palace yesterday back?” I inquired with my gaze fixed at the window, I had no intention whatsoever in whatever outfit that was set before me, all that mattered to me was Laura. “No Sire, there hasn't been a word from them” The servant girl replied with her head lowered as she did not dare look up while I was speaking. “Leave the clothes on the bed, you all can leave now” Just as they scurried out of the room, another knock came through as Eliot rushed in. “H
RICKYAfter the argument that I had with Laura, I waited for a while but there was no sign of her so I thought that it was only right to give her some space. Until it was time for dinner and I was summoned by the servants that dinner was ready, I scurried to the dining table hop to sort this out with Laura, but she was there. “Where is the Luna?” I asked the servants that stood there with my eyes scanning around. “She is not here my King! ”“What do you imply by she is not here, have you informed her that dinner has been served?”“We tried, but she is not in her room, we haven't seen since earlier today when she left the palace”“What!! ” I felt every strain my hair stand, my heart skipped with fear that this was more than just Laura finding space away from me. “She hasn't returned since she left earlier today and why wasn't I informed of it?”“I am sorry My King, we thought that you were aware when she left and considering that she is the Luna, we can't restrict her movement”“Sen
