" This is suspicious. Why would any human invite Lycan? I hope it's not Lady Katherine " My thoughts in turmoil. I am very sure the Maynard is dubious. He must have invited Lady Katherine into icy pack. Lycan should know better than listening to his brother or anyone. After listening to my father's words and all I have come to know no one loves Lycan. They will harm him if they have the chance. they will hand him over to the humans if they got the opportunity. I get up from the bed slowly and headed towards the waterfall. I could hear the sound of Lycan walking about in the dressing room so I smile in relief. On my way to the lake I chewed on my lower lips as I scolded myself for the uptempt time for groping Maynard. It isn't right in so many levels. I pray Lycan would forgive me because I fear he will try to get back with me on that. I get to the small lake and a smile etch my face. The soothing pleasant sounds of the drops is so overwhelming. Gently I get into the lake and swim f
After Lara left, I couldn't bear to be in Lycan's presence so I stepped out for sometime to have a moment to myself. I breath out shakily under the sun. My jaw setting. I was still standing, Unsure of what next to do. Lycan had pay me back in my own coins and nothing hurt more. I know I deserve it. He is not to blame. I shouldn't have messed up with Maynard. Not at all. Instantly my heart took another turn and I headed back to the big hall. I need to apologize to Lycan. He needs an apology. A sincere one. I was just about to open the door when I heard Maynard's voice that compelled me to stop but eavesdrop. " Lycan Yiu should calm down. you didn't know the whole Story " " The whole story? . Why would you grope and seduce my wife when you shouldn't? " That cold response from Lycan makes my heart shuddered. I quickly look away to breath. " You do not understand me. you should be by my side. You know I love Amelia before you go ahead to woo her with your cursed beauty " From where
" Don't do it again. I will never forgive you if you do " Lycan's soft voice compelled me to open my eyes and stare up his face. He was laying still on the pure quartz with me in his arms. " I'm sorry Lycan. I know I shouldn't have... try to go off to Merry pack that way " In response, he ease up from the Pure quartz and sat up to stare at me. His ominous eyes making me to feel vulnerable. His dark wet hair had pull over his face, framing one of his eyes sexily. I made to lower my lids but then I couldn't. He seem to have captivated me with his eyes and soul. " I was referring to my brother. If ever you try making out with Maynard , I won't forgive you " My heart immediately shuddered at the promise and warning. I gulped down hard when I witnessed the determination in Lycan's face. He had made this one slide but he won't permit and tolerate another. I nodded my head slowly and an uneasy smile breaks out from my face. Slowly I stood up from the pure quartz and enters the lake. My
No one speak for a long time. The tensed atmosphere finally makes me uncomfortable but luckily Anthea chuckled unexpectedly. The sound unpleasant because it's dry. I turn to cocked my eyebrows up in confusion. She seem to be fidgeting under Lycan's gaze. I caught her clenching her hands secretly. " Amelia... Actually it's a joke. Ethan and I are only here to accompany you back to Merry pack. You know the yearly banquet is just around the corner " I could feel the hostility and lies in her Words. My instincts tells me something different. " I know the yearly banquet is upon us. I will come by soon. Probably later today or tomorrow " I replied with a forced smile thinking that would ease the atmosphere but no. Anthea rolled her eyes impatiently. " For goodness sake Amelia! " She snapped. " You are coming with me right now. Merry pack needs you and not here in this lonely moon goddess forsaken cave " I was surprised at her outburst that I bite my lower lips quickly to stifled a gasp
The sound of the rain was a distraction. I am not too strong, like the others for I have skipped a lot of training session thanks to my clumsiness. This bad act of mine finally paid off. I couldn't overheard what Maynard wanted me to. I can't believe I'm shivering already in fear. I know Lycan is most powerful but I also know he has his weakness. Immediately fear clouded my mind. I stare up at Maynard. My heart thudding crazily against my chest. " Maynard please. You shouldn't be siding with humans. Lycan killed Jones to save me. to save us. he is your only brother. He loves you " " But he is selfish too Amelia. He stole you away from and I will take you back " Slowly I walk to Maynard so my lips would just be a few inches away from his. My words comes out in a low whispers. " Do you think I will come over to you after you give Lycan, my husband to the humans? " " You will have no choice Amelia " He replied and instantly my heart dropped to my stomach. He seem so sure of himself
" I will make them all pay back for what they did in here. Maynard dare sold me out to the humans. He's dead " Lycan swore. He whispers and I sigh out shakily in fear and concern. " I won't spare him anymore. I have exercise a lot of patience since he is my brother but not anymore I sold... " " Lycan please! " I yelled at my husband at once with my eyes blinking with unshed tears. I know more than to count his words as bluff. I immediately walks slowly towards him as he lean against the wall besides the window " Lycan this is not the way. Hurting Maynard by making him pay for what he had done didn't sit well with me. I am scared. I do not desire to see any bloodshed. You both are brothers. Aren't you supposed to be happy with each other? " " He started it " My husband retorted while pushing himself away from the wall gingerly. " You know Maynard started this war. Firstly he tried to get you to his bed then he tried killing me just because his blood is my weakness. He goes ahead and
I lean over into Lycan's powerful arms for some minutes, taking in his strength and gladden by how supportive and understanding he is but then my thoughts took a drastic turn and I immediately dashed away from him. This sudden movement surprised and confused both my husband and brother so much. " Amelia you should calm down " Ethan was saying but I wasn't listening. I walk up to the window, my legs shivering. " Amelia. " " What if Maynard had gone to the humans and reported you are here Lycan? What if he has gone to them and they make another plan on how to capture you this time without fail? Lycan you should.. " " No. I think you should calm down. Maynard would..." " No Lycan listen " I interrupted him while shivering. " There is no way I will be betting your life and future on ..." " Amelia! " Lycan suddenly thundered and I shivers immediately. I gulped down hard when I am brought back to reality. My legs shivering and my heart thudding crazily against my chest. My husband just
Ethan and I dashed into the room to see Lycan pinning smith to the wall. The face of the human has already turned purple while the other humans were scared out of their wit. Air left my lung at this disdain and I gulped down hard. Okay I have agreed for Lycan to scare the humans but I never mentioned the part where he would strangle them, almost to death. " Lycan! " I called out so loud. " Lycan for moon goddess's sake let him go. you are killing him " " That's actually my aim wife. I intends to kill him right where he stands " my husband replied with his eyes now glowing. My heart involuntarily just dropped at his words. What? " But Lycan...you promised not to kill anymore. Not to shed any unnecessary blood. You promise me you won't take any life before we get married " Lycan seem to be more infuriated by my speech. He tightened the hold on smith's neck and I gulped with it. " What is the use of keeping a promise I made to you if it will later become our downfall? This man right
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
