" Where is my father? who is he and why is he not living with us here in this Cave? " The little boy of ten years asked his mother in awe.
Amelia has been expecting this particular question and she had prepared a good answer for him.She looks down to her pale hands and saw life has already passed her by. The huge loss had left her broken, forever." Come here Alpha. the long wait is over. I will tell you a story about the Woodland Lycan. he is your father and this is how we met "Immediately Alpha took his seat across his wane mother and look up to her white tired face. Amelia quickly smile to ease the tensed atmosphere and she began." It all happens Eleven years ago...."~~~Amelia's POVIt was a cloudy night. The cold wind splashed wickedly across my face but I took no notice. My fragile heart was filled with immeasurable agony that moment and I couldn't believe my own father would be so willing to marry me off to a monster.The lightening came at once, shooking the four walls of my room which was way up the ground but still i didn't walk away from the window where i stood peering out. My name is Amelia Chester and I am a beautiful woman with a white curly long hair." You will be getting married to Lycan Myth on the next full moon Amelia " My father had dropped the bombshell over dinner earlier that night.To say i was shocked beyond anything comparable when I had heard his declaration would be an understatement. I was stunned totally out of my wit that i dropped the cutlery in my hand." What? " I all but speak out in a whisper. My heartbeat was racing and my enormous normal appetite wither with the cold wind. I turn slightly to stare at my step mother and my step brother.I caught the small smile playing at the corner of their lips and at once i realized they have both talk my father into giving me to that monster, Lycan Myth, also known as the Big bad wolf.The name alone was enough to send shiver into the spine of every werewolves in any of the four pack that exists in woodland." Since you couldn't find your mate we have decided to give you out to Lycan for peace. He had requested for your hand in marriage " My step mother chipped in with a fake smile.Anthea chester isn't my real mother. She was Married to my father when my mother, bless her poor soul, passed away. It turns out that Anthea had a son whose name was Ethan before she entered Merry pack. Merry pack is one out of the four packs that exists in woodland and my father rules over it.Merry pack, Lane pack, Wood pack and lastly Icy pack. Out of all this packs I mentioned one of them was and still is forbidden to enter. Icy pack.It was the domain of a monster, an abominable werewolf who shouldn't have been Born. The place were Lycan myth reside. The thought of been married to him scared me more than anything would ever does. His name Lycan Myth held too much than just a mystery." For peace? " I asked in a shaky voice. I can't believe I'm trembling already. " Father please you can't do this. No one ever venture into Icy pack and return. You know how cruel Lycan Myth was said to be. Father... "" Amelia! " My father, the ruler of Merry pack yelled out making me to jolted at once. Air left my lung and I gritted my teeth to hear him out " You Have been unable to find your mate yet so you are the only one fittable for this. You should be excited that a powerful werewolf as Lycan is ready to be your mate "" Not my mate father! That was like sending me off as a sex slave. it will be a loveless marriage. I am terrified already " I retorted with my voice raced " we can surely find another way out of this loophole father, Father this is cruel... Sending me off to icy pack is like killing me. I can't go to icy pack father ... I can't marry the Big bad wolf "" Enough! " My father shut me up again. He stood up angrily and pushed away from the table. " The elders and I had prepared to marry you off to him because we need him on our side. In order for merry pack to survive you have to.. " He stopped abruptly to breathe out shakily. The side of his face wrinkle a little and he continues seconds later with a tone of finality " You are getting married to Lycan Myth next full moon "I was shattered and heartbroken. I can't believe my own father will be so willing to exchange his only daughter for peace, as if we haven't had enough.it wasn't my fault Merry pack was facing some odds ... Was it?. Lycan Myth obviously doesn't know me so why would he demand for me all of a sudden?" Father can you grant me some more time so I could find my mate? Please.. " I begged shamelessly praying he would nod in positive but to my dismay he had shook his head." We have no more time Amelia, you are the daughter of a ruler of Merry pack. You have to take responsibilities that comes up with the title "He said and walk away leaving me alone with my step mother Anthea and step brother Ethan.My appetite was lost and I am sad. I flatten my palm on the table to stand up but suddenly my step mother speak out." I would advise you to go ahead with the flow Amelia . You should consider yourself lucky for every she wolves in woodland is ready to do his bidding. "I can't be sure but I detect the slight mockery in her words. I offered her a dry smile and walk away into my room where I stood by the window peering out.Icy pack! It echoes in my thought and I sighed roughly. Icy pack where no one walks in and return. It was the only pack where no one could venture carelessly. A place where A forbidden Werewolf reside.I was so busy with my thoughts, lost completely. The lightening struck again and my eyes suddenly caught the silhouette of a man staring up at me.I dashed away from the window instantly. Am I seeing things already? Was it the aftermath of hearing the name Lycan Myth?. My heartbeat resume racing and my brain was advising me to shut the window and go to bed but my heart won't listen.Instinctively I walk towards the window and peer down, there I could see the silhouette again, Still standing.Out of curiosity I peered closely. That was when I realized he was hurt and in need of help.Oh no! Who is he?. I asked myself cluelessly but my legs didn't wait for my brain to detect any answers. I took a couple of breathe to steady myself before the colours of my irises bloom into golden lights. I jumped out of my window and landed perfectly onto the ground.I took a couple of another breaths while staring at the silhouette of the man before me. It was dark so I can't make out his face. My acute hearing overheard the gasps from him and his wheezy breaths." Hey Let me help you. " I offered in the softest voice I could muster " Take my hand... I will take you up there to my room, to care for your wound if you have any "I extended my palm to him reassuringly and he reached out to take it. Just as our fingers grazed eachother a bolt of Blue lightening struck out from the contact driving me backward harshly. I went down hard due to the impact and I winced in pain.What! What just happened? I held up my palm to my face with shock etching my features.My mate! Oh no ! This silhouette of a man is my mate. Finally I met him.My father always said he recognized my mother as his mate through her scent while others would say they recognized their mates by their scent as well. Out of all this bases to recognized one true mate wasn't an option whereby a bolt of lightening will struck out just by touching each other. My knees were weak but I managed to stand up on my feet as the man doesn't move an inch. My eyes was still glued to him all through. He is weak. I know. Judging by his rasp breathing. It was dark and cloudy, about to rain at anytime. " Follow me " I said to him. I lead him towards the secret passage where I usually used as my hideout when I was young. My long lost best friend Maynard, a strange handsome boy whom I knew nothing about help me in building it. Who would have ever thought my secret passage which I shared only with a strange boy I knew from the outskirts of Merry pack would be of greater use tonight?. The passage leads to my room and thankfully no one is around my quarter. " Come i
My dad suddenly grabbed my arm and frown, hence stopping me from running after Lycan who I'm sure would be out there, bleeding out. " where are you off to? " He asked me with a creased up eyebrow. " it's raining... don't you see? " I gulped down nervously as I do not want to alert my dad about the Truth concerning my mate. " Who is Lycan Myth? " I said instead feeling curious all of a sudden " Who is he dad? tell me everything about him. I want to know if he's a good man worthy to be my mate or not " My dad who seem confused, however he sighed. he look away from me and then began gently. " The First founder of Icy pack was a powerful werewolf whose name was Myth. He was married to the most beautiful woman in woodland and they begot a son Maynard. " Myth who was too greedy isn't satisfied by his wife so he venture out of the woodland and into the humans region even though it was forbidden for any werewolves to walk out of woodland but who could disagree with Myth, a werewolf who c
" But I'm about to get married to your step ... Brother " As soon as I speak out the words he clenched his jaw sternly. My breath come out in a rasp and I quickly lowered my eyelids to avoid staring into his icy eyes. " Your smile, your passion, your love and your everything belongs to me for you are my true mate. " I couldn't reply him. I tried but failed to find the right word to say. Lycan is definitely a possessive man , I'm sure he wouldn't spare anyone that comes near me. Do I want this type of toxic bond? Luckily a knock came to my door at that moment, interrupting the tensed atmosphere. Lycan left my side and walk towards the window. " I will be back " He said with a tone that was devoid of humor and he jumped off the window. I ran towards it just in time to see him making a dash towards the direction of the wood. I breathe out shakily while thinking about his words. The knock came again but this time more harsher. I make a dash towards my dresser and I got dressed up in a
Maynard wrapped his arms around me. Never desiring to let me go and I didn't protest. I love the hardness of his solid chest, the pleasant Aura of frostiness swirling around him and his soft warm breath caressing my hair. I can't believe Maynard is back , finally. Who would have known he's the first son of the legend Werewolf , Myth? I pulled back from his embrace finally and stared up at his face. His Mariner blue eyes increasing my heartbeat and the pleasant scent that hung in his Aura teasing my sense. " You are back. I can't believe this " He laughed at my face softly. The sound of his chuckles tightening my chest at once. He titled his head to a side and then reached out to tuck a strand of hair behind my ear. " You are just as beautiful as always. More beautiful to be precise " His voice was melodious but at the same time firm. Staring closely at him, I realized he had changed totally. Of course he's Maynard, my best friend from the past but his stance isn't the same at all
Lycan is my true mate , the man moon goddess had made specially for me as husband. I gulped down nervously when I saw the cruelty in his eyes, the murderous expression that was masking his face. His long hair was tampered with but yet it was flowing and glowing. Somehow Lycan had gripped Maynard's neck, grappling him so tightly that I , myself couldn't breathe. " Lycan you are killing him " I whispers, unable to muster up enough courage. Truly, Lycan Myth is the most powerful werewolf in woodland. No one failed to surpassed him in anything else. His beauty and power is compare to nobody. He had pinned Maynard unto the floor, squeezing the breath out of him. I can't believe the sight of his intention. Is he going to kill Maynard just because the latter advise me against him? " Lycan you are killing your brother damn it! He would die from your clutch " I suddenly yelled out. Breaking free from my restrictions. I can't keeps mute anymore that the man who now have my heart would be s
In his arms alone , I could feel excited without much ado. His Frosty eyes tinging and teasing my sense throughly. His lips which was still brushing against mine, his tongue which was still tangled with my own sent me this unexplainable feeling that I could only beg for more. Instinctively I am aware that my lust has been arouse already. It would only be a matter of time before my wolf began yearning for more. Throwing away caution and submitting myself entirely to the hand of the Big Bad Wolf is not by my will, I would be telling a false story if I admit I am in my right sense just now. Slowly i felt Lycan pull me away, just for a second so he could turn my back against his solid chest and with that Same movement his hands went under my dress smoothly. I have to shudder with great need and awe when Lycan's fingers found my breasts. He move against them, rubbing them with much care that I too was amazed. He is known for being cruel and sadistic , yet he has the ability to render
I could hear as Lycan dress up behind me. My heart was thudding crazily against my chest that I thought I would pass out and the urge to turn around and take a sneak peek on his body overwhelmed me but I fight it as usual. After many minutes of silence, Lycan sighed softly behind me as though to indicate that he is done with dressing up. With my knees shooking slightly, I turn around to face him. My movement was slow just like the scent I am perceiving. Lycan stood still before me with his eyes guarded. He seem just so innocent and beautiful. I had to look away from him to bring back Sense and caution into my brain. " You don't have to look away. Many ladies usually fall for me just by staring into my frosty eyes. You shouldn't be shy about it. It's only normal, my curse actually. " He said to me in a whispers and I swallowed. He is right. It seems i have fallen for him just by staring at his Frosty eyes. I raised up my head to face him again. His plumped lips tempting me throughl
My mate watched me carefully without any expression at first then all of a sudden he cursed under his breath and return to the couch where he flopped down. " I can't believe you think of such words as the Truth. I didn't kill my mother or father and not even my stepmother " He declared firmly and my heart sank. Strangely I felt guilty and sad for misjudging him and believing the rumours. Lycan is my mate so his words should be the one I'm trusting. I lowered my eyelids to keep away from staring at his glare. I can't live with myself now if anything happens to Lycan because somehow my heart is with him. " I'm sorry Lycan... I .. I don't.. " " It's fine " He cut in angrily but I know it's not fine. Nothing is okay at all and I figured he needs sometime. The fact that Lycan could read one's thought is still unsettling too so I left his side to get dress. I didn't leave the room but my back was turned to Lycan as I put on my dress carefully. Now even though I couldn't see Lycan , I
The sky rumbled loudly and I know we will be having rain soon. Maybe the rain that will stop the same time Lycan's heartbeat did. The morning sun has Revealed itself but still we didn't move. I pulled back from him to stare into his eyes. All i could see is his lifeless pupils and pale lips. I reached out to touches his face which went so cold and i sighed shakily. " Lycan " I mutters while weeping gently. " Lycan, oh no " He pulled my hand away from his face and hug me Instead. He circled his hands around my waste that moment and kissed my forehead. " I'm fine now that you are with me " He took me up and and carried me just like always, easily. Lycan headed to the Cave and I shut my eyes when he do so. When we get to the top,he placed me down and stirred me Towards the lake where he undress me Very tenderly. With his fingers brushing my skin I could only moan softly. At last he pulled off my dress and we entered the lake together. The water a little warm to my liking. Lycan k
Lycan's Fall was a huge blow to everyone that has come and I as well. Never have anyone though he would have a failing health later. When he get down on his knees and vomited silver, I know he is gravely ill. To make the situation worsen his black hair immediately turn White and I gasp shakily. The people who have intended to take Maynard into the silver chamber now has their shoulders sagged in regret. All woodlanders obviously regretted ever pushing Lycan away and thinking bad about him. He is the best man in woodland but no one ever like him. The most humblest of us all but he isn't taken seriously. I bent down to him and touches his arms. Ethan had quickly come forward to receive my baby from me as I wail over Lycan. At last Maynard walks forward and sigh sadly in pretence. " I am sorry Amelia that you have to face this but it's Reality. Now that Lycan is dead, we should prepare for his burial and other..." My Palm flashed out in a jiffy, hitting Maynard's cheek so hard t
" What is going on Lycan? " I asked my husband softly. This time I feel inclined to speak out. " Lycan? " " I will tell everyone what I did Lycan. I will clear your name. They will get to know who you truly have been. Brother please. Crescent is also your nephew. You both have a bond. He loves you " Maynard's voice seem to have effect on Lycan. When my husband take his time to speak,I know exactly he would accept the proposal. " Lycan please..." I began but he ignores me completely and said to his brother. " Good. You got it, you got the Maynard. Fixed the crowd and I will descend my Cave to work my wonder on your son " My heart fell into my tummy after hearing this but Maynard was relieved. He only cares about his son. Of course I have him not to blame. As a father it's his duty to watch out for his son but never at the expenses of another person's life. Before I could muster up courage to speak or decipher my next movement, I heard Maynard says. " In an hour's time Lycan. I
" Lycan I can't live without you or our son. There must be a way you both could live. Please " I am on the bed now and our son has been taken to the room where Lycan had kept his mother and father for resurrection. I know what would occurs next but somehow I do not wish for it. I love Lycan so much. I have Choose him above everything and everyone. I won't be able to survive the huge blow if he died. He sat beside me with a small smile on his face. His face always was drawn and tired. " Amelia..." " No Lycan, please " I cut in gently. I tried to say up and choked back the bile in my throat. " Lycan there must be another way. We can go to the sacred hill together and begged the moon goddess for another chance " " To hell with the moon goddess. She placed a curse on my son and I. There is nothing we need from her anymore. It won't change anything my love " " Yeah " i agreed gently. " It won't change anything Lycan but you can do it. I know you have the strength and ability to do
The soothing water doesn't calm me down anymore. The cool breeze did nothing but infuriated me. I sat beside the lake on a pure quartz and tears was streaming down my cheek. I can't believe my only son had died. I haven't held him for too long. The moon goddess did me bad and I will never forgive her. Lycan hadn't succeeded in calming me down. I have left the suffocated room myself. The soft footsteps get to my hearing and I perceived the scent of Avila. When sue drew nearer I have already known her purpose and I am not ready for it. " I want my husband " I said abruptly with the tone that signify finality. " I want Lycan and no one else " Lycan had refused to talk to me. The morning had folded into afternoon and by the cool breeze I know it's already evening. I won't be cheering up until I have a conversation with the man I married. Avila saw my state and she reverse her footsteps. After some minutes I heard her walking away. Another sob broke out from my lips and I wish I c
" As a mother you should be by your son's side. Is everything okay ? " Ethan's voice came from behind me and I sigh. I smile at him as he walk further towards me and lowered himself beside me. " Lycan is with him. I'm sure he will be fine " " Alpha loves his father so much. He wakes up a while ago but drifted back to sleep when Lycan rock him. I have never seen a bond as that " I smile softly at this. The cool breeze blowing upon us. " So how is father? You saw him today, right? " " Yes, I do. He is healed up now. There is a ceremony going on later tomorrow night for the icy brother's babies. Lycan said Alpha won't be attending. " " It's understandable Amelia. Lycan still would love to know whether Alpha will be curse or not " I look away at this. My jaw gritting together in agony. " Do you think everything would have been much better assuming I have rejected Lycan's proposal? " " Amelia... " " If I have refused to marry him, would woodland have been a better place Ethan? W
Yes! I got it. He has been there often in the wood when I goes off for some errands. I met him couples of times when I have cried endlessly after my mother's death. He has consoled me. He would only appears just so mysteriously and wipe my tears off.I dropped my gaze at how beautiful he is. My real father had been by my side without me knowing. I move very closely to Lycan. He look at me for sometime before pulling me into his embrace. " I will see to the water king Frey. In the main time prepare for a good, tangible reason to why you have try to wipe out all woodlanders " Lycan pulled me away from him but keep me by his side. He stared at me for sometime before saying. " You should stay behind. It's unadvisable if you tag along with me too " " Lycan, no. " " You are a werewolf too my love. Stay here. I will be back in no time. You should take a seat " He look up to my father and was about to ask for a comfortable place for me to sit but I interrupted him." I'm fine Lycan. I
My eyes fluttered open and I sighed softly. My vision caught Lycan standing over the window with the baby in his arms. A smile curled up at the corner of my lips when I saw Alpha wearing his new clothes. Lycan must have work all night to make out baby this one. I turn slowly to see the baby crib. A frown appears on my face as I wonder how much creative my husband turns out to be. Slowly I stood up and mutters to him good morning. He gave me my son and hugs us both together before placing a light kiss on my forehead. " Good morning darling " I smile into my son's eyes. His brilliant pupils staring back at me so innocently that I have to hold back tears. " Isn't he so adorable, Lycan? " I whispers to my husband who nodded. He cupped his palm around my neck and kiss me hard on the lips. " Just like his mother " " I don't think Alpha takes anything after me. See, he even have his father's beauty and hair. Now I'm jealous " " You don't need to be " My husband replied with a smile
I know I am expected to feel frustrated but I wasn't. I carried my baby in my arms and tried consoling him to stop wailing. His father is nowhere to be seen. Lycan had left for where I couldn't fathom and it seems his presence alone is alpha's antidote. " Come on Alpha, please..." I begged but my baby only continues wailing. Avila and Ethan had left to make the dinner while I was made to Carter for the baby. Tears finally welled up my eyes when exhaustion began to seep through me. I just gave birth to Lycan's baby and he did nothing but left? " Come on Alpha. You should listen to your mother " Ask though he had read my words, Alpha mysteriously stopped crying abruptly. I let out a sigh and smile but then I noticed the man in the doorway. Lycan! My heart sank when I realized Alpha had only stop because of Lycan's presence. I swallowed hard and watched as he walks up to me. I didn't speak to him at all. I only gave him the baby and mutters weakly about going to take a bath. Wh
