Nora: Rejected Lost Princess A Dangerous Move
Karen’s POV After leaving Nora’s side, I stumbled into the hallway, clenching and unclenching my fists in anger as I stared into space. The conversation we just had was a clear testament that I haven’t even begun yet as Nora was a hard nut to crack. Convincing her that I was doing this for her own good was a difficult thing to do but I was determined to do so otherwise, my plans would be thwarted. Looking behind my shoulders, I kept staring at the closed door, contemplating my next line of actions. After what seemed like forever, I decided to go back in and try convincing her again but I felt that was going to make her doubt me even more. With heavy footsteps, I made my way towards the exit of the building only to push open the door of the second room where Vina lay. With my face scrunched up in disgust, I cranked my head to the side and with my hands crossed on my chest, I
Nora: Rejected Lost Princess Forming An Alliance
Karen's POVThe silence in the room became thick coupled with a thickened tension filled room that could be cut through with a knife.Step after step, he made his way into the throne room and now in the middle, he did a curt bow, his hands securely by his side. What is he doing here? — I pondered, my gaze never leaving him even for a minute. “Callum, you never told us you were coming.” Queen Dione said to Elder Callum, her brother and Nora’s uncle who I had met in the Blue Lycan Kingdom. “I should have been here a long while ago but I had no idea what had happened until last night.” He said, folding his hands behind him like he always does.“I had been on hiatus several miles away only to return to learn that my niece went missing without a trace.” He thundered.The anger mixed with disappointment in his eyes couldn't be missed. Nora's family kept acting like she was a child that needed to be looked after all through the day. Their actions were pissing me off but at the same time
Nora: Rejected Lost Princess Isn't It Too Suspicious?
Karen's POV“To determine if Nora is still alive or dead, I will have to summon her blue blood.” Elder Callum said, his voice firm and resounding. Swallowing hard, I grabbed the arm of the chair I was sitting on, my gaze never leaving him even for a minute. Summoning the blue blood of a royal Lycan is Iike unleashing a suppressed demon that the Lycan possessed. If Elder Callum goes through with this plan of his, it wouldn't be long before Nora would be found and not only that, the other part of her wolf which my grandfather suppressed will rear its head. “I think we should go with that path.” King Salvador said, increasing my heartbeat. Somehow, I will have to come up with a contingent reason to dissuade them or else, I wouldn't be able to defeat the kingdom and for certain, I was going to lose my life. Right there where I sat, a million and one idea was spiraling through my head all at once but none of them seemed viable. The adults kept talking but I was too bothered to liste
Nora: Rejected Lost Princess He Is Not A Traitor
Nora's POVIf I was told that someday I would be a captive, I wouldn't have believed it a bit but here I was, restrained like a common prisoner. The thought alone made me furious that I was itching to get out as quickly as possible to deal with whoever was behind this. Karen's words all sounded unreal to me no matter the direction I looked at it from. “I mean, Carlos had been open to me from the very beginning even when we drifted apart.” I muttered. Shaking my head sideways, I added, “Carlos is not a traitor and he won't become a traitor all of a sudden.” It's either Karen was making up stories about him or he was telling a tale based on the information he had gotten from someone who was trying to tarnish Carlos' image. Blinking my eyes, I sent my teeth into my lips. My lips, which had been bearing the brunt of my anger, were badly wounded by now but I couldn't help it. The more I thought of Karen's words, the more frustrated and confused I became. Even Vina has begun to av
Nora: Rejected Lost Princess Go After Him
Karen's POVAt the moment, I had my back against the wall with a smirk dancing on my lips. Things were going well as planned and so I had no other choice but to be thankful as I reviewed the next phase of my plan. Suddenly, I remembered Elder Callum who had wanted to call Nora back with her blue blood and on impulse , I clenched my fist by my side only to send it into the wall. “You're lucky you didn't disrupt my plan.” I smirked, already visualizing what I had intended to do to him if his plan would have fallen through. I had intended to end his life as he was an obstacle.“My lord, we heard a crackling sound, is anything the matter?” One of my assailants asked, poking his head through the door. “Not at all.” I shook my head in the negative, pushing my hand forward but after a few seconds of thought, I pushed my hand into my hair, noding at him to take his leave. Now left alone to myself, I had my hands folded across my chest as I roamed about the little space I was in, the smi
Nora: Rejected Lost Princess Eliminate Them
Karen's POVThe plan was to eliminate Justin even before he could cross the borders so it wouldn't look suspicious. If he was allowed to cross the Lycan Kingdom borders and proceed to the pack before he was killed, there would be chaos. My intention was to center the attack in the Lycan Kingdom so that if there is a reason for me to pin the crimes on someone, it will be easy to do so. “Don't allow him to return to the palace for any reason.” I said with a firm tone. “Just as you had done a clean job for Carlos, do the same for Justin.” “Yes sir.” They replied and then took their leave. After looking around to confirm no one was peeping on us, I pushed my hand into my hair and after tugging on it for a while, I pushed my hands into my pockets. Pulling my legs, I made my way towards the pavement that led out of the palace and once I was out, I increased my pace. My next destination was the dilapidated building where Nora was still being held hostage. Clenching and unclenching my
Nora: Rejected Lost Princess Is He Going To Survive?
Third POVThat night was the longest Carlos has ever encountered. He kept struggling to stay alive as he pulled himself towards the Lycan Kingdom. “There he is.” One of the assailants who had returned to check on him yelled and almost immediately, all of colleagues ran to his side. Together, they pulled him back to the woods. This time around they pulled him even more farther into the woods so he wouldn't be able to crawl back up. Drained of all his energy, Carlos remained motionless on the ground, breathing heavily as his vision blurred. While he was still struggling to get on his feets, the men remained, walking around him in circles as they snarled and bared their canines at him. Even in his fainting state, Carlos was able to catch a glimpse of their faces which were covered in masks. “Rogues.” He blurted only to start breathing heavily. “What are we still waiting for? We should kill him already.” One of the men snapped. “Moreover, he is already dying and instead of leaving
Nora: Rejected Lost Princess I Hate Him
Third POVStanding at the edge of the building, Vina had her hands strapped across her chest as she glared at Karen who had his back on her. Since he arrived a while ago, she hadn't gone to meet with him as usual as she was furious with him. Keeping Nora hostage had drained her mentally that all she wanted was she should be freed but it seemed Karen doesn't have the intention of doing so. Several times, she had begged him to let her go but he was obstinate about it, threatening to hit her if she dared mention Nora to him again. Running away was her only option but at the same time if she dared it, she was aiding the death of her parents as Karen had them hostage. “I hate him.” She said through her teeth, her hands crossed on her chest. Rolling her eyes, she turned in his direction only to snap her head forward the next second since he was staring at her. A few minutes later, Karen was standing in front of her and holding up her chin as he stared deep into her eyes. “You don't

Too weak to do a thing, I just stood there as she continued to squash me in a bear hug while muttering some words in my ears. When she finally pulled away from me, I attempted to wipe the tears off her face but she grabbed my hand mid air. “I'm sorry Nora, please forgive me.” She said, tears rolling down her eyes in torrents. “Come on mom, it's fine.” I flashed her a smile, rubbing her palm to soothe her. “That's not the case Nora.” Wiping her eyes with the back of her palm, she took in a deep breath. “I allowed Karen to mislead me. I was a toy in his game and he made sure to sway me with different talks to get what he needed.” Mother went on and on to talk of how Karen had used her but I didn't judge her a bit. If I was in her place, I would have done the same.

Finally, the whole ordeal of being kidnapped was over and now, another round of battle which I was mentally prepared for was lurking around.

Nora: Rejected Lost Princess She Was My Weakness
Karen's POVI decided to return to the kingdom with the unconscious Nora. It would be quite impossible to kill her without a full plan. I needed to have some time to help me restrategize. Carlos' sudden appearance had made all my plans go to naught as I strongly believed that he hadn't acted on his own. He must have solicited help from Nora's kingdom and so I had to be extra careful while dealing with them. On arrival, I handed Nora to the physicians. I stood before King Salvador and Queen Dione, and the elders of the kingdom. I could see the concern etched on their faces as I recounted my tale."I am afraid Carlos had already poisoned Nora by the time I reached her," I said, my voice laced with feigned regret. "I managed to rescue her, but I had to escape quickly, as my army was vastly outnumbered."Queen Dione's eyes welled up with tears. "Oh, Karen, you're a hero! We can't thank you enough for saving our daughter."

Exhausted, the men gathered under a large tree to catch their breath while Justin and the members of the Blue Lycan Kingdom who had offered to help them went over the directives again. Drumming his foot against the floor, Justin had a look of worry on his face. He believed that Karen had caught Carlos and now he was in grave danger. “Calm down.” It was Elder Callum who had accompanied them that spoke. He too was trying to trace Nora’s scent but it was to no avail. “I can't reach him through the mind link.” Justin replied, still hitting his foot against the floor with his hands crossed on his chest. His distress got to the point that he began to pace about, all in a bid to clear his

She screamed but quickly placed her hand over her mouth, not wanting to attract the guards.With her eyes almost falling off its socket and her heart beating heavily against her chest, she swallowed hard as if that would stop her wobbling legs.

After her encounter with Karen where he had dealt mercilessly with her, he had ordered his men to throw her into one of the rooms so she would die a slow and painful death. “Ugh! I'm not dead yet.” She muttered, finally snapping her eyes open as she pulled herself to a sitting position. It took a while before she could adjust to her environment, and when she tried to stand up in a bid to escape, she fell back on her behind with a little sigh.

Nora: Rejected Lost Princess Broken

A thick, black fur glistening in the light, perfectly groomed and sleek. His piercing yellow eyes seemed to burn with an inner fire, radiating confidence and authority. Pulling myself up, I tried to square off with him only for me to fall face first to the floor and the next thing that happened was a loud laughter that rang all over the hallway. “I knew you were up to no good so I decided to lurk around.” Smacking his lips with a shrug, he added, “Too bad you are yet to understand that I’m always one step ahead of you each time.” He hissed. “Why are you doing this? If you really love her like you claimed, you wouldn't hurt her this way.” I yelled, grasping the wall for support. Clicking his tongue, I was itching to hear what he had to say to me but he didn't speak. “You know…” Rub

That's when I realized that he must have known it was me.I glared at Karen, my eyes blazing with fury as he approached me with his men. He looked smug, too confident, and I knew I had to warn him."Game's over, Carlos," he growled, his voice low and menacing. "You're going down."I let out a scowl, my eyes gleaming with anger. "Oh, I don't think so, Karen," I responded, my voice dripping with condescension.With a sudden movement, he kicked me brutally, sending me crashing to the ground.
