My Lycan Prince.Chapter fourteen.“I can’t,”Archer was right. He is never going to have feelings for me so why do I keep doing this to myself? “Why?” I heard the words leave my mouth before I could stop them. I'm exhausted but the main reason I cut my night short was to talk with him even though deep down in my soul I knew I would regret this conversation. I shouldn’t want this as bad as I do. I shouldn’t keep pushing myself on him knowing how he feels. Yet I keep punishing myself and it’s not like I grew up unloved. My parents and siblings love me though it’s not the love I want so desperately to have.“I just can’t,” Archer finally says.“Why not Archer? Give me a reason and I’ll stop asking you,”And I would stop asking if he would tell me the truth. I need to know why he can’t kiss me or get too close. Maybe then I’ll finally be able to move on.“Lily,”“Why?” I replied. I watched as Archer's jaw clenched and his palms fisted. I could tell he was getting angry.“Why do you wa
My Lycan Prince.Chapter Fifteen.Zero never slowed down as he drove as fast as lighting through the bends and turns of the road. I held his waist tightly because of the mountains and big drop offs on the one side. I’ve never seen a place so beautiful even at night with the light from the moon and the way the fog covers the peaks of the mountains is breathtaking. Colorado is beautiful, it's no wonder why Rose loves it here.Zero finally comes to a stop on a cliff side and he hides his bike behind some trees.“Follow me,” He tells me and starts walking through the trees. I followed him and froze just on the other side.We were on a mountain overlooking the city of Denver. The way the city lights up and looks so far away it’s a stunning view.“It’s beautiful,” I tell Zero.He nods.“I used to come here a lot after my mom died. My dads a bad buy and kept wanting me to join him but his lifestyle wasn’t something I wanted so I left home,”“What is it that your father does?”Zero was quiet f
My Lycan Prince.Chapter sixteen.“Lunar,”His tear filled eyes met mine and he smiled.“I’ll never forget you little Mate,”Little? Mate? I didn’t think too much into it as he placed a soft kiss on my lips and he got to his feet.“Grab your bag and go, I’ll try to hold him off as long as I can,”I zipped up my suitcase and hugged Lunar and pecked his lips before leaving the room. I dragged it quickly as I could down the stairs and before I could reach the door Archer jerks the suitcase from my hands.Everyone Rose and Twyla were sitting in the sitting room and when Rose saw Archer she quickly made her way toward us along with Ethan and his father Bruno.“I told you that you were not going back home,”“Yes I am,”“Riley wants to use you for his own personal benefit,”“I don’t fucking care,”“Language,” Archer warns.“I’m going back home to my parents whether you like or not,”“Do you really want to go and be a whore to Riley?”“I’d rather be his whore than live another minute with you
My Lycan Prince.Chapter seventeen.Archer walked back to the BBQ. I leaned my head against the tree and sighed.He doesn’t want to keep hurting me but every time he walks away from me another piece of my heart falls like a withering Rose that loses its paddles.“Lily?” I quickly dry my eyes and walk back towards the BBQ.“Lily,” Zero pauses when he sees my puffy eyes.“I’ll kill him,” He seethed and started marching back to the BBQ.“Zero. It’s nothing. I promise he didn’t hurt me,”Not physically anyway.“Why are you crying?”I shake my head.“I’m not. It’s my tree allergies,”He thinks for a minute and nods his head.“Come on. Foods done,”Zero threads his fingers through mine and leads me back and makes me a plate of food. Archer kept his distance from me and never spared me a glance.“He’s talking with Ethan. Do you think I have a shot?” Serenity asks.“He doesn’t like being interrupted,” I tell her truthfully.She shrugs her shoulders and strolled over toward them and she strik
My Lycan Prince.Chapter Eighteen.I thought once I got back things would be good but someone at school started the rumor that I went out of town to get an abortion so Archer wouldn’t find out that I got pregnant by Johnny. I’ve been ignoring them but it’s getting hard when someone spray painted my locker with the words baby killer on it.I told the head master and he had the maintenance guy remove it but that still didn’t stop everybody from talking about me.I thought Johnny was my friend but turns out he’s agreeing with the rumor that he slept with me even though he didn’t.I guess Johnny has gotten more popular over break.I was glad when the weekend was upon us I was planning on talking with Dwayne. I won't tell Archer what’s going on at school. I don't need him meddling in my affairs.I just hope Dwayne will help me.We were eating dinner and Archer and Dwayne just finished a conversation.How’s my chance?“Sir. May we speak alone after dinner?” I ask Dwayne.“You can speak now
My Lycan Prince.Chapter Nineteen.“I thought I made myself clear? It seems as though you’re unworthy of our gratitude,” Dwayne yells at me and I flinch.“Go to your room while I figure out your punishment,” Dwayne waves me away.I put my head down.“Yes sir,”I glance over at Archer before leaving the dining room like Dwayne told me.When I got to my room I checked my phone and saw a text from Zero. He told me he couldn’t believe I sat there and let Dwayne talk about him like that and say nothing and he broke up with me over text. I didn’t reply back to him. What was I gonna say?Sorry? I should have stood up to Dwayne? No one dares to stand up to Dwayne, not even Archer. I’ve been told many times by Dwayne before that I’m to know my place here because one wrong move and things could end badly for me and I couldn’t change that.I can’t believe that Archer didn’t say anything to Dwayne about marrying Clara. How could he agree to that? He told me he doesn’t care for her so why is he ma
My Lycan Prince.Chapter Twenty.Archer and Clara are accompanying me to Rose’s ball. I didn’t want to go but I was afraid of staying home. I was afraid of what Dwayne might have forced me into. He gave me a warning not to mention me becoming his bride to anyone…..not even Archer.I always thought I was meant to do more. Become something and be great at doing something I love. But I see now that I’m nothing……and nothing is all I’ll ever be. “I can’t wait to meet your sister,” Clara tells me.I just kept my head down and said nothing.“You’re not going to talk? Dwayne is not around.” Clara states. And the mention of his name I couldn’t help but cringe.Clara leaves Archer's side and sits next to me.Clara whispers in my ear.“He’ll be there,” “Who?” I asked her, my voice was hoarse.“Archer called Zero and explained everything to him. He’s going to be there tomorrow tonight. Archer is letting me take you dress shopping when we arrive Rose is excited about,” Clara says and walks back
My Lycan Prince.Chapter twenty-one.“Lily, no,” Zero screams and he wraps me in his arms as we both fall through the air. Zero somehow flips us just before we both hit ground.Pain shot through my body but I ignored and crawled over to Zero lying unconscious.“Zero,” I shake him.He doesn’t open his eyes.I check for a pulse when I don’t feel one. I start to panic and start chest compressions. A crowd forms around us but I can’t be worried about that now…..not when Zero wasn’t breathing.I tilted his head back and breathed air into his lungs and started back the chest compressions.“Come on Zero, Breathe,”After five minutes he still wasn’t breathing and I slowed down on the compressions when I started to breakdown realizing he was gone.He can’t be.Why did he do this?How could he give up his life for mine? I’m worthless.I shook my head and start pushing harder.“Breathe,” I cried.Archer placed his hand on my shoulder.“He’s gone, Lily,”I shrugged his hand off me and continued
