OWNED BY THE LYCAN KINGS CHAPTER 100: SWEET HOME
Meredith’s POVHome.That was what this place was supposed to be.But this place—this wasn’t my home. This was far from it. I barely recognized the land I stood on. The home that I knew was filled with so much joy and laughter. The sun was always high and warm, and smiling faces lifted the faces of even the grumpiest of men. The children would play on the sidewalk while their mothers screamed at them to behave. Which they never would, if I may add. The men would gather around tables in beer parlors, laughing as they cheered with their jugs of beer. The women would fill the local markets, trading and discussing amongst themselves.My home, my kingdom, always had a sense of family.But where I stand now has none of that. The air was filled with the cries of children, the weeping of mothers, and the groaning of fathers. I watched from beneath my hood as my people got whipped on their backs like slaves. Carrying heavy loads on their backs as both men and women assisted in building what
OWNED BY THE LYCAN KINGS CHAPTER 101: REJECTED QUEEN
Meredith’s POVI thought I would be disgusted by this woman’s vile display of disdain, but sincerely, I was heartbroken. My brows crease as I meet her hateful glare. “I would rather perish before my child than accept your hand.”Whispers and murmurs erupt among the audience around us. The guards appear confused on what to do; it was clear that they knew who I was. They all did. “Why? I am your queen, Meredith Amman,” I say confidently, and the air grows silent for a moment. But next, snickers and snide remarks fill the air.The woman before me snorts, despite the blood trickling down her head. “I have no queen. The last ruler of our great nation, Nuvia, was executed weeks ago. That is precisely why we are suffering, because the last of our leaders has died.”A pang strikes my chest from her words, and I quickly blink away my tears. I could not show weakness here, no matter how hurtful their words may be. I had to be strong and establish authority. I just have to.“Look me in the eye
OWNED BY THE LYCAN KINGS CHAPTER 102: MOON VULTURES
Roman’s POVThis kingdom is messed up as hell. Why on earth would they hang the heads of three people at their center? I mean, I knew I was cruel, but it never got to this point. There are children walking around here. I don’t even want to imagine what these kids have been through. If the children of this kingdom don’t grow up to be lunatics, then we better give all of our thanks to the moon goddess because this is messed up.And who the hell is this creepy woman speaking to Meredith? If Malik is dead, then who has been ruining Nuvia? Her?Honestly, I couldn’t care less about the answers to these questions. All I want right now is to get Meredith out of here. I hate how so many tears are welling up in her eyes. I hate how much hurt she is feeling, because damn, I can feel it too. It is immense.I hate how everyone of them is looking at her with so much mockery and hatred. She doesn’t deserve all of this; she doesn’t deserve any of it. I just wanted to rip their eyeballs right out of
OWNED BY THE LYCAN KINGS CHAPTER 103: LITTLE TOUR
Meredith’s POV They all hate me. My own people hate me. That has to be the saddest thing ever. ‘I did not give a damn about what the bitch Lucia said; there was no way in hell I was leaving my kingdom in her hands. “There are more ways to get your head mounted on that pole than one,” she said. Ha! I was scared of her. It broke my heart when the kings didn’t support me when I wanted to have a duel with her. After everything we have been through, they still think I am weak. I never got to know the full strength of Malik and his people, but Lucia had to be very powerful to take down even one of the most average alphas. Despite knowing this, I was still not scared of her. The only thing I felt towards her was pure rage and disdain. The kings thought I couldn’t take her on myself. I don't care who the hell she is; I would fight with everything in me to take back what is rightfully mine. But then she just had to turn diplomatic at that moment. I hate to admit it, but she had a point:
OWNED BY THE LYCAN KINGS CHAPTER 104: SAUL'S MATE
Saul’s POV It can’t be. This must be a mistake. This can’t be happening. Not here, not now. There is no way this woman—this goddess in human form—is actually my mate. After all these years, I came to the conclusion that I was mateless. I always believed that the moon goddess despised me and cursed me to spend an eternity without a mate. A lifetime without someone by my side. That was why I created the harem. That is why I took women from every corner of our kingdom to fill the hole in my chest that my mate was supposed to. But then I saw Meredith. I knew Meredith, and I fell in love with her. It felt like my whole world had crumbled before my eyes when I found out that she was Roman’s mate, and then the pieces were set ablaze when he marked her. It did something to me; it ruined me from the inside out. I wouldn’t say that it made me grow a hatred for Romans, but it was something terrifyingly similar. I spiraled, I rebelled, and I did everything possible to let out my rage, b
OWNED BY THE LYCAN KINGS CHAPTER 105: MEREDITH'S BLESSING
Saul’s POVFinding your mate is supposed to be one of the most exciting experiences in the world. It is supposed to be a feeling that automatically lifts the weight off your shoulders and fills you with relief. But it just had to be the exact opposite for me. Of course, mine had to be different.After running away from everyone like a damn pussycat, the weight on my shoulders returned, and it was ten times heavier than it was before. It was weird because I could feel my mate’s hurt, her sadness, and her heart breaking the further I got away from her.I never even got to know her name.I suppose I was just too scared to ask.Scared huh? I never thought I was capable of feeling such an emotion. This has to be the hardest point in my life. I should have just marked her there, and then I thought that once you have found a mate, nothing else in the world matters.Perhaps it had something to do with the fact that my heart already belonged to another. That moment at the park, every fibre in
OWNED BY THE LYCAN KINGS CHAPTER 106: A PRINCESS' DISTRESS
Meredith’s POV“You have to eat something, Meredith,” Roman tells me. We are both in my room, or should I say Jamie’s visitor room? It is where I have been staying for the past thirty hours since we arrived in Nuvia. The kings stayed in his living room because there was only one room Jamie had to lend out. There was space for one more of them beside me on the bed, but neither of them wanted to share a bed with me, especially at a moment like this. Actually, let me rephrase that: they all wanted to share a bed with me but didn’t want to upset the other two.None of us are in the right state of mind for conflict. Especially with this whole Saul finding his mate issue. Since he left my room last night, I haven’t caught sight of him. He most likely went to find that mate of his. I do not know why, but that angered me so much, but there was nothing I could do about it. It is not fair to keep him for myself when Roman still has full access to me.I shouldn’t even be harboring these feelin
OWNED BY THE LYCAN KINGS CHAPTER 107: A MATE'S VISIT
Saul's POV She was a leader.I could tell from how she spoke to her colleagues and gave commands. She did so with assertiveness and a cool, dominating authority. She never shouted.She kept her voice low, but even I could feel the weight of her order. You wouldn't dare defy her. Even though I feared to defy her, I guess that is why I haven't moved an inch from behind this tree. But there is something else she is missing. There is something in her that I am looking for but can't seem to find. That warmth and compassion weren't there.I suppose one of the reasons I am having trouble moving from this spot is coming to terms with the fact that this woman wasn't Meredith. She never will.Just look at me, the great Alpha Saul Kaval, hiding behind a tree because he is too scared to speak to a woman. I am so glad the others weren't here to witness this, especially after they watched me run away like some coward. I know that I will have to move at some point. I can't stay hidden behind t

OWNED BY THE LYCAN KINGS CHAPTER 162: EPILOGUE
“Our kingdom has gone through trialing times this past year. We have lost so many of our people, family members, friends, and loved ones. This year will go down in history, and it shall be the last of its kind. A time like this will never step foot into the borders of Nuvia. Enemies tried to rule us; they tried to tear us down, but they couldn’t. Because we are strong. We are not like any other pack; we each have a fighting spirit so unique that has been placed within us. As Queen and Luna of the Nuvia kingdom, I swear to never turn my back on my kingdom ever again, even if it is for just a second. We, not just I, will learn from the mistakes made this year so they never happen again. We will rise from the ashes; we will become stronger, and if anyone tries to destroy this kingdom ever again, even after my reign, we will destroy them from the inside out instead.”Cheers, whistles, and praise filled the air as I concluded my speech. I stared at each and every Nuvian present; it was al
OWNED BY THE LYCAN KINGS CHAPTER 161: BURN
MEREDITH’S POVA gasp leaves my lips as I fill my lungs with oxygen. My eyelids come flying open, and my eyes lock with a pair of familiar sea blue eyes and honey brown eyes.“Welcome back to the living princess,” Saul says, and tears of joy well up in my eyes.“That’s queen to you,” I correct, and the both of them share a glance before chuckling at me. I jump to my feet to wrap both of them in a hug, but my feet wobble, and I lose my footing. Luckily, I land in Caelen’s arms, and he helps to steady me. “Easy now, queen. You just had quite an accident there. You might suffer from a concussion soon,” he says, pointing to my damaged car that is now lying in a ditch. What the hell? How did I even survive that?My eyes travel downwards to inspect my body for injuries. And surprisingly, there was none. But why did I have this burning pain all over? Like I was being beaten over and over again?When the realization dawns on me, my heart plummets to the pit of my stomach.My grip on Caelen’s
OWNED BY THE LYCAN KINGS CHAPTER 160: THE RETURN OF THE BEAST
ROMAN’S POVI really am an asshole.This isn’t turning out the way I wanted. I thought that now that Meredith’s memories have been wiped out, I can finally have a brand-new chance to make things right. I thought I could fill her with stories that would benefit me.What a fool I was.The girl didn’t even trust me. She knew when I was lying and when I was telling the truth. She was my mate; she knew when I was telling the truth and when I was lying. It didn’t matter if she had lost her memories or not.That damn bond between us was always going to give me away. And my God, was she persistent. Since she didn’t believe me, she was doing everything within her power to uncover the truth. And at this rate, she was going to find out sooner than I would like. A sigh leaves my lips as I run my hand through my hair. Why did she have to be so damn persistent and go wondering around? But then again, I should have known better than to keep Lucia’s body in the same building as Meredith.I should h
OWNED BY THE LYCAN KINGS CHAPTER 159: A FOOL NO MORE
MEREDITH’S POVRoman was still sound asleep. He looked so peaceful while he slept, I could stare at him sleep all day. He was even more beautiful while asleep, his features were a lot more relaxed and prominent. And who would have thought he had such incredibly long eyelashes. Lucky.Focus Meredith!It takes a lot of strength, but I manage to tear my eyes away from him. careful not to wake him; I get out of bed as quietly as possible. I do a mini-victory dance once I am out of bed, then tip toe out of the room. My teeth clamp down on my bottom lip as I open the door slowly.My heart nearly flies out of my mouth when the door makes a creak. I shoot Roman a glimpse over my shoulder and say a silent prayer when I see that he is still sound asleep. Finally, I get the door open wide enough to slip out.I make sure to shut the door gently before pumping my fist in the air. Ah, yes, freedom at last. I do another victory dance once again but freeze when I see some maids down the hall starin
OWNED BY THE LYCAN KINGS CHAPTER 158: STONE COLD DEMONS
MEREDITH’S POVA chill runs up my spine, and I let out a breath through my lips. A mist forms and quickly disappears before my eyes. Every breath I let out, I would see it in the form of a mist. There wasn’t a form of light in this cold, dark room. The only light came from the moon’s gaze slipping through the cracks of a barely opened window. I could tell that I was still in the palace; I do not know how, but I just did. I dared to peek out the window, and my thoughts were confirmed once my eyes locked with the palace gates.But this room... Roman had taken me on a tour around the palace, but this room... I never saw this room. I spun around in a circle, noting the dust, cobwebs, and spiders that filled the room. But what caught my attention was the coffin placed at the center of the room. Surprisingly, it was the only thing in the room that wasn’t covered in dust. It was still clean and shiny, like it had just been recently placed there.I knew I should run; I wanted to. Because wh

MEREDITH’S POV“It is a pleasure to have you back with us, Luna.”Remember your lines! Remember your lines!Presently, I am in a meeting with the newly elected council member of my pack. Roman was seated by my right hand while I was seated at the head of the table. Where I ought to be. The council consisted of seven members, each seated according to their ranks and roles. After waking up yesterday and having Roman fill me in on the things he felt were important for me to remember, I instantly passed out again. I suppose I was having a storage overload and needed time to actually process everything. When I woke up, an entire night had already passed, and I was already getting ready to attend a meeting I knew nothing about. I stared at myself in the mirror for the longest time, trying to recognize the woman that stood before me in this fancy gown and heavy jewelry. Roman came in shortly after dressed in an all-black suit with a gold cross around his neck and a gold watch on his wris
OWNED BY THE LYCAN KINGS CHAPTER 156: THE TRUTH AND THE MATE
MEREDITH’S POVMy goodness, I felt quite sore all over.My lips part to release a tired yawn. Goodness, I was so tired. And I was quite hungry too. It feels like I haven’t eaten in days, but I know I ate just yesterday. But what did I eat?” I do not remember. Come to think of it, where did I eat, and what is my favorite food? What was yesterday? There was nothing but questions that filled my head. Questions that didn’t have an answer. How strange.Slowly my eyelids peel open, and I am met with a pretty chandelier. I stare at it for some time before finally sitting up. A groan leaves my lips as I stretch my legs. This bed was quite comfy, was it mine? I do not even know. My eyes dart in every direction, and I am filled with more questions. Like, where am I? And whose room is this? Was it mine or was it someone else’s?So many questions...Throwing my legs off the edge of the bed, I rise to my feet but stumble a bit. “Woah,” I mutter as I try to find my balance. Once I do, I twirl ar
OWNED BY THE LYCAN KINGS CHAPTER 155: TRUST, LOYALTY AND LOVE
ROMAN’S POVI stare at Meredith’s unconscious body with a blank face. That is one thing I was blessed with. I could be dying of pain, and my face would still be this way. Hard as stone and cold as ice. Tears still spilled out of her shut eyes, and the sight of them did something to me.I can’t believe that this was actually happening. I just hope that she will find it in her heart to forgive me someday. But this... all of this was just for her. I hope she will get to see it.A loud cackle snaps me out of my thoughts, and my head tilts to Lucia, who had her head tilted back as she laughed wholly. “Oh, what a glorious day! This has to be one of the best days of my life. I remember meeting you for the first time, and you swore to defeat me. You had so much hatred and determination set in your heart, but where has that gotten you now? Absolutely nowhere!” She laughs in Meredith’s sleeping face, and my eyelid twitches. She was way too close to Meredith for comfort. Her lips were barely a
OWNED BY THE LYCAN KINGS 154: YOU WILL REMEMBER NOTHING
MEREDITH’S POVFight! Get up! Move! Do something!These were the words that constantly sang repeatedly in my mind. But my body wouldn’t respond. I can’t believe that the moment Lucia told me to sleep, my body just did so without wasting a second. How was that even possible?I was awake, but my eyes wouldn't open. I was well aware of what was happening around me, but from a distance. Once again, my soul had left my body and watched the entire scene play out before me with a broken heart.I can’t believe that Roman has been helping Lucia all along. I thought that he had been with her the other night just to spite me. But going as far as stabbing his own brothers and helping her take over my kingdom was something I never would have imagined, not even in my wildest dreams. This... this was absolutely unforgiveable. Roman clothed my naked body before any of the vultures could come in before doing the same for himself. Once he was fully dressed, he asked Lucia, “What do you mean she will
