My Lycan Prince.Chapter Twenty-Six.“Dwayne? You're in love with Dwayne?”I must be hearing things: who in their right mind would love someone as ruthless and heartless as he is?Clara chews on her jaw and she slowly meets my gaze and nods her head.My mouth drops.“Why?”She bites her lip and looks away.“Clara,”“Once I said something he didn’t like and he pinned me against the wall and…..He touched me and I’m telling you Lily my body was like puddy in his hands. I’ve craved his touch since,”“I know what you mean,”I feel the same way about Archer. “Dwayne’s not a nice person. He’s….” I tail off.“I know. But I can’t help it. I’ve tried to get over him but I can't. I love him.”“I get it,”She scooted closer and she rubs her finger over the wedding ring on my finger.“He must really care for you,” She mutters, hurt evident in her eyes and my heart clenched.I wanted to tell her the truth but I couldn’t….Not yet.“We should hang out and celebrate my thirtieth birthday ,”“You’re t
My Lycan Prince.Chapter Twenty-Seven.I was so close to the feeling of Archer’s lips against mine. Thanks Dwayne for interrupting my chance.Clara walks over to me with a huge bunny in her arms.“Dwayne won this for me, can you believe it?” She says cheerfully.I grin.I’m so glad Clara’s birthday was a success and she got what she wanted.“Ready?” Dwayne asks me and extends his hand.Archer stiffened next to me and brushed my fingers against his veiny hand and I glanced over at him and smiled at him softly.I stepped forward and placed my hand into Dwayne’s as he led us back to the harvest. Once we were out of sight of Archer and Clara Dwayne squeezed my hand tightly causing me to drop my giraffe on the ground.“What the fuck was that? You were going to kiss my son and now your step son,” Dwayne seethed and his nostrils flared. I cringed at Dwayne's words. Archer was far from being my step son…. “You’re my wife, remember that.” He snarls and lets my hand go. I bent down and picke
My Lycan Prince.Chapter Twenty-Eight.My life has always been dull—never allowed to do anything without permission. First from Riley with school he picked my classes and wouldn’t allow us to date or have friends, if it wasn’t for me begging him he would never let me get that job with his betas mother and it surprised me when he said I could.Once I was out of Riley’s claws I was under Archer. Not that I minded Archer, he really didn’t give me any problems, he let me pick my classes and have some type of freedom. He only set one rule—no drinking.I could live that.But then Dwayne sank his claws so deep into my skin that my soul is slowly draining from my body. He’s ruthless and cruel, not to mention he is all for rules and punishments. I’m being pulled between the two of them and I’m not sure which way to go. I love Archer but without Dwayne my plan won’t work—I need him.I climb off Archer’s lap standing to my feet. Without a word I walked into the bathroom and undressed so I could
My Lycan Prince.Chapter Twenty-Nine.Clara decided that she was going to spend the first night with me in this strange room. But I think it’s mostly because the room smells like Dwayne and she gets some weird comfort from it.Clara and I have gotten close. She's a really good friend and she listens to whining about school tests that sneak up on me and projects that I don’t want to do. She Aldo’s confines in me too. I had no idea how rough Clara has it, I also thought her life was perfect with the way she acts and holds her head up high. Clara told me that her father is forcing her to marry Archer for his royalties and money. Her mother (Dorthy) is drunk and verbally abuses her on a daily basis. Her father (Edward) Is all about money and his business isn’t doing so well which is why he is making her do this. To save the family’s reputation and his business. Drinkwater Shipping Co. That’s the business that Clara’s family is in. The shipping business. They were the only ones on the i
My Lycan Prince.Chapter Thirty.I plan on telling Dwayne when he returns that I am not his wife. Clara and I had come up with a plan to save Wyatt’s baby and hopefully Noel as well. Clara is helping me work out to try to build up some muscles in my arms and legs. Today we are starting with push ups.I’ve never done push ups before or any type of physical exercise. Clara is used to it and knows what to do because she keeps her body in tight shape.“Come on Lily. Push- you got this,” Clara says standing over me as I struggle to bring myself back up.“I can’t..”Clara claps her hands.“You got this. Come Lily,”With her encouragement I finally made it back up.“Done,”I fall to my stomach panting.“How many was that?” I ask her.“Three,”I groan.“Don’t get discouraged you only just started,” Clara says walking over and grabbing two five pound weights.“Here. Do some curl ups,”I take the weights into my hands and begin to do what she says. After about five times my arms start to burn.
My Lycan Prince.Chapter Thirty-One.Clara decided to cut the workout short today since Dwayne was coming home and she wanted to find a dress to wear. I didn’t stop just because she wanted to call it a day. But I regretted it afterwards. I never had time to shower before they announced dinner and since Dwayne would be there it’s as good time as any to tell him.The moment I sat in my seat Dwayne was already angry with me for some reason.“Why did you have your things moved from my room?”He scrunched his nose in disgust as he took in my appearance. Messy bun, red dirty face, and smell like sweat.“What were you thinking? Coming to dinner like that?”“I’m sorry my workouts run longer than I expected. I didn’t have time to change,”Dwayne scowls. “Yet you had time to move out of my room?”“You never asked me to move into your room. You just decided it for me and no makes my decisions…I do that,”Sedrick sits the plate full of meat in front of me and Dwayne shakes his head. “She canno
My Lycan Prince.Chapter Thirty-Two.Clara decided to drive me to school so she could tell me about Dwayne. I only managed to get a few hours of sleep and when I woke up Archer was gone. I did my homework and had time to make myself a sandwich for lunch….it’s not on Clara’s diet for me but she said I could have this one because of what happened with Dwayne last night.According to Clara Dwayne wasn’t happy with her either for being in love with him he punished her. Said it wasn’t appropriate for her to be in love with someone like him. She’s so innocent he would ruin her. Which according Clara only turned her on more. “I’ll pick you and we can get started on your workouts,”I nod and close the door to her Audi. I rushed into school and everyone stared at me but said nothing. I turned in my papers and took my seat in the back of the class. English was first up. Archer soothed me to sleep and his touch made me forget all the pain I felt in my face. I know Archer feels something for m
My Lycan Prince.Chapter Thirty-Three.This was no longer about saving an innocent child. It wasn’t about understanding. This has gone past everything I thought and knew. Things aren't always what they seem…..Sometimes you have to look deeper than the surface.“What the fuck were thinking Lily?” Said Archer as he paced back and forth in front of me.He pulled me from the ballroom after Dwayne told him what I did. Dwayne and my father both tried to talk Riley out of it but he won’t let the challenge go….I was hoping he wouldn’t. It’s time Riley goes down for his own stupidity.“I have my reasons,”Archer narrows his eyes and grabs my hand and leads me back into the room and he walks me back to Riley. “You know what will happen if you touch her,” Archer reminds him.Riley smirks and stands tall.“Don’t make threats you can’t keep,” Riley tries to anger Archer and it's working…..Archer tensed.“Let’s make this fun, Riley,” I say stepping towards him.Riley grins.“Now that’s more like
