Rebound to the Lycan Alpha 20. Kys and tease
[Kian] (Past) “Thank you… for saving me…” Carys smiled, looking into my eyes. I gave her a curt nod. She kept smiling brightly, beautifully. She licked her lips and even though I didn’t want to, my gaze dropped to her succulent pink lips. I immediately brought my eyes back to her gaze. “Thanks for saving Snow White, as well…” Carys cradled the female owlet in her arms. “You’re the one who saved her,” I said, and she squirmed in her hospital bed. “Right…” she dropped her gaze at Snow White, stroking her. She placed Snow White in her cushiony basket and got down from the bed. I stepped away from her, my heart pounding faster. There was a nervous flutter in my stomach as she stepped closer to me. Even with all the anxiety and rush, I couldn’t stop looking at her. They she walked, the way she breathed, the way she slid her hair behind her ear. “Umm… where do I start? Maybe I should start with an apology. But let me male one thing very clear, I-I am not sorry because I went out hu

[Kian](Present)I ran my finger over the torn edges of the last page of her diary. No wonder she tore the last page off.Taking a deep breath, I shut the diary, and I placed it on the nightstand beside Carys’ bed.What I don’t understand is why did Christian give it to me?I glanced at Carys. She was still asleep. The doctor said she’d regain consciousness in an hour or two. Tucking the blanket around her, I increased the heat of her room. After landing in the Winter pack, I secretly took Carys to one of my alpine estates located deep in the Vizsnow mountains. I had to keep her hidden for the time being. Now that she was a rogue, the entire world would come for her without having any fear of the consequences. Because there would be no consequences even if they killed her.“There’s something I don’t understand, Alpha,” Jackson said. “Why did Alpha Christian let you take her so easily? Like you said, he didn’t even try to stop you.”“Because that’s what he wanted,” I said. He was te

[Carys]‘You can’t leave me. Where do you think you’ll go? You cannot run away from me, Carys. I “am” your cage. No matter how far you fly, where you go, I will always have a leash on you. You will find yourself confined back within my bars.’I was floating naked in a blank space with nothing but those haunting, distorted words and their incessant echoes. The darkness around me crackled itself around me until I found myself locked in a gold cage. I tried to step out, but the shackles caught me crawling around my ankles up my legs.Like thunder, thorny rose vines crept into and around the cage.The bars of the cage slithered into golden snakes, baring their fangs at me as they slithered all around my body. They coiled tight until I felt my skin sever and heard my bones crack.‘If not my beta, what the hell are you? If not mine, you are no one’s!’I fell to my knees, panting as the thorns of the vines stabbed right through my skin. In no time, I was kneeling in the puddle of my blood.‘

[Carys] (Past) Click. Click. Click. Another reason I didn’t like morning hunts. I turned around and glared into the lens of Joshua’s camera. The lens of his brand new camera extended out as he focused it on my face. “Will you stop it already? We are on a hunt, not some photography competition,” I said stoically. “Keep your camera aside and focus on what’s important.” “Oh, I am focusing on what’s important and God, she’s so fine.” He said, clicking my photos from all the stupid angles. “How about this?” I pressed the tip of my nose upwards, making my nose resemble that of a piggy. “Oink! Oink!” He started clicking my photos more vigorously as he broke into laughter. “I am sending these photos to beta Logan. He’d be delighted to see his daughter morph into a piglet. Haha!” “Hey!” I lunged at him. “Stop it! Give me that camera! Joshua! It’s not funny!” “Why? You made that face.” He dodged me deftly as he ran up the mountains. “You’ve been clicking my photos ever since we lef

[Carys](Present)I dropped my gaze from the marshmallows floating in the hot chocolate and placed my hand over my chest.That incident still created a warm knot in my chest that tightens and tightens until something inside me snaps. Destroys. I don’t know what it is that I lose every time Kian’s memories float back to me. But it makes me feel things as anew as I felt them back then. Everything that I shouldn’t have felt back then.But once again all of it is back and with such force that sways me right off my foot.I reached out for a roasted marshmallow, but my hands stopped on the way as tears flushed into my eyes.Shit!What the fuck! Why the fuck! Damn it!Only I know what I had lost to let go of him and his memories and all it took was a hot chocolate and some marshmallows to bring them all back. My heart clenched as I peered outside the window at the mountains.“Verity, can you take the hot chocolate away, please,” I said as I got up to draw the curtains. Revisiting old scars

[Carys]They took a completely unknown route, dropping off Verity at some random port before sailing out for Xafran again.The waves violently crashed against the ship, sending quakes with every drift.I had never felt so helpless ever in my life. My strength was nothing before the power of the wizard’s mind manipulation. When Nox erased Verity’s memory of their crew and the ship, I could move my lips slightly because his attention was on manipulating her mind.That’s when I realized Nox wasn’t using some extraordinary air magic to bind me. He was using a simple mind magic to make my mind believe that I was his captive. The kind of magic which might not even qualify as a middle grade magic, yet I was completely powerless against it.When we reached the shore, they covered my face with a black cloth and transported me to a van. From their talk, I could make out that they were going to sell me to some illegal slave distribution center. It was then I understood what King Elysar and Jack

A/N: Readers discretion is advised.***[Carys]They tied my hands and legs with shackles on a metallic torture bed.Had those shackles been normal iron shackles, I would have easily broken them apart, but they were probably enchanted. I grunted, struggling to pull my hands out of the shackles. They hadn’t branded me yet because their boss seemed to have had a change of heart during the time I tried to fight against the hundreds of them on my own.He asked his wizards to catch me and put me in this place, which was nothing but darkness.Even with Zara’s vision, I couldn’t see a thing. It was a cold place where even the sound of my breaths echoed.I don’t know how long they kept me there, but that place was draining my energy as if it was sucking life right off my soul. Except for the shackles cutting through my skin around my wrists and ankles, it was quite peaceful. It was as if that pitch darkness was drugging my senses, putting me in a state where struggling seemed futile and

[Kian] “You should be here. With her. She’s going to leave. You can stop her. Come on, alpha. You know how dangerous this can be for her. You can’t just let her walk into the mouth of a monster. We know Xafran better than anyone else. That place has rules, but laws? There are no laws. Those magic folks are insane,” Jackson spoke from the other side of the phone. “It’s her decision, her life. Who am I to interfere?” “Alpha. I know things have happened in the past, but I also know your heart…” “No, you don’t, Jackson. If she’s leaving, guide her to the safest route and make sure she knows what she’s getting herself into. That’s the most we can do for her right now.” “Maybe if she sees you in person and if you talk to her, maybe she’ll listen—” His words settled in my chest like a severe discomfort. “Be real, Jackson,” I said, sharply. “Then why did you save her?” “Because she called for me!” I controlled a frustrated yell. “I saved her for the peace of my mind because if I didn’

[Carys]“At the conclusion of this meeting, this is my final verdict in compliance with the vote of other alphas — the Autumn pack will not be dissolved. As proposed by the Gamma Mic of Autumn pack, the Autumn pack will be run under emergency conditions with the gamma assuming the beta’s position and upholding the pack. The rank of the alpha of the Autumn pack will remain empty until Alpha Joshua’s child is born. AAC will assist the Autumn pack at every stage of recovery.” I didn’t attend the meeting, but turns out Verity had other ways to have a peek into everything that happened in the conference hall. “Edith Percy Nightfall’s punishment will be postponed until and after the heir of the Autumn pack reaches the age of five. She will be convicted like everyone else who was responsible for the Blank Space incident. Until then, she’ll remain under AAC’s surveillance.” I let out a sigh. “As per Alpha Dominic’s request, the Spring pack will monitor and take care of Edith Percy Nightfal

[Carys]Hoot!Snow White perched herself on Kian’s chest.“Kian’s soul has sustained severe injuries, Carys,” Moratia said. “It will take years for him to recover. The Bond that remains in his soul will help in his recovery. Keep Snow White close to him. She’ll help feed him the spiritual energy he needs through this mist. We are taking Mizkeal’s soul with us.”She looked at Death. Death turned his face towards Moratia and gave a slight nod.I lifted my gaze and looked at Moratia. The Ravens and crows that ripped Mizkeal’s soul away from Kian had long disappeared into the dark portal with his soul. The portal revolved behind Death’s divine yet haunting figure. His face was covered with a skull mask.He turned towards the portal and stretched out his hand towards Moratia. She glanced at me and smiled.“Thank you for everything, Carys,” she said before she turned around and looked into his eyes before placing her hand in his. They walked into the dark portal. Once their figures were e

[Carys]Moratia slowly looked around to see Alpha King and Liam standing near the borders with their army. After all the destruction Mizkeal caused, it was only logical for him to take things in his hand.Levi stood beside them, staring at us. I could tell by the look on his face that he tried his best to hold Alpha King back, but couldn’t. The same look was on Verity’s face.Verity tried to run towards us when Alpha King ordered one of his soldiers to take her away from the battlefield.Nox stood with the other members of the SW, looking frantically around the battlefield. He was clearly looking for Morana.Morana and Christian had fallen into the mist together, but I hadn’t seen them after that. I could only hope that they were ok.Dominic and Ash walked through the crowd of soldiers to the front-lines, taking in the situation.Of course, all of them felt the horror of Mizkeal’s wrath.“Brother!” My eyelids fluttered towards Aamna as she tried to cross the borders and come to our si
Rebound to the Lycan Alpha 141. Ultimate choices
[Carys]I could feel everything Moratia felt.All the centuries of life, love and death flashed in her soul.Her soul was elated to see Mizkeal again, and the way he recognized her again filled her with hope, but it didn’t take long to shatter. Somewhere in him, she yearned to find the man she fell in love with. The prince who taught her how to live.But neither was Mizkeal the same, nor was his love for her. The pure love that a fae price once had for her had turned into a madness of a fae lord. He loved her, yes. But in a constant fear of losing her and that kind of love leads to desperation. And that desperation had blinded Mizkeal.I could actually understand the reason behind his desperation because I was desperate, too. I was desperate to save Kian, bring him back, and I was ready to do anything that could make that possible.Marrying him or not marrying him would depend on Moratia. And I knew whatever she chose would affect me significantly, so I had to brace myself for whateve

[Mizkeal]I didn’t care what happened inside me. I used every ounce of my soul for this last attack.The world could end at its own accord, but…I shifted my glare at Carys.To end her was my right.Peering at me, she got to her feet. Holding my gaze, she stood calmly amidst the exploding ground around her. She licked her lips before taking a deep breath.She smiled gently and shut her eyes, allowing the tears welled in her eyes to trail down her beautiful face.I landed on the ground. Dust and debris of the ground blasted all around us as I strutted towards her.I grabbed her wrist and yanked her closer, barely holding back my rage.The chimes of her crown jingled louder than the exploding earth, sending goosebumps all over my body.“Open your eyes…” I commanded in a slightly shivering tone.I grabbed her upper arms tighter.“Open your eyes!” I snarled at her.She shook her head, her lips trembling as she took in a shuddering breath through her tears.“Carys!”“You know my name, my p

[Mizkeal]Christian held back his groan, gritting his teeth as he glared at me with bloodshot eyes.“Why is everyone so stubborn here?” I sighed. “Well, pain is a choice, and you chose not to show it. I respect that.”“Shove that respect up your ancient ass and get out of my best friend’s body,” he growled, glaring right into my eyes.I chuckled wryly. “You have a strange sense of humor. How does it feel to be in that head of yours, to have a tongue sharper than your claws? There is no real damage you can do to me.”Christian laughed obnoxiously. “That’s the stupidest thing I have ever heard.”“Oh! Have you ever heard yourself?” I taunted back.Morana let out a titter with a smirk spread across her lips.I shifted my gaze to Morana, whose calculative eyes analyzed me.She was the one important to me, but I was still not sure if I could absorb my heart and Bond without damaging them both in the process.I couldn’t risk absorbing Bond while she had my heart because then… it could damage
Rebound to the Lycan Alpha 138. Distraction
[Mizkeal]As I soared towards the sky, a wave of raging adrenaline pumped through my veins, pounding in my ears.Carys Elffire was playing a dangerous game.She split the Bond in two parts! How the hell did she split it apart?But what I failed to understand was how she got a hold on Bond so quickly. A day ago, she couldn’t even keep its power in control and now she had split it in two?But what I wanted to know was how far she had decoded Bond and its abilities.Bond was far more powerful than before. New elements were added into Bond and I hadn’t had enough time to decipher all of them, either. So, it was important for me to know how much she had deciphered it or altered it.With a swift blow of my mana, I created a squall that tore the mist apart for a few seconds. It gave me enough time to escape.The mist swirled around me, playing with my head, bringing out the memories that were impossible for me to resist or ignore. Despite my efforts, echoes of Moratia’s voice haunted me, blu

[Carys]Parting from Mizkeal, I held his hands in mine.His calculative silver eyes narrowed on our hands before he looked into my eyes, as though he could see my soul.“I know what you are thinking. But I am not here for you,” I said, holding his gaze. “I’m here for Kian because I cannot lose him.”He smirked faintly, his eyes calling me out for being delusional.“If Kian lives on in you, as you… then I agree to that fate,” I said, looking into his eyes. “If his soul is merged in yours, then I’ll love his torn soul through you. If you go beyond that border, Alpha King will do everything in his power to stop you. He will kill my Kian and… I can’t let that happen. So, I’ve stopped them. I lied to them. I told them I can… stop you. But I know I can’t.”Mizkeal narrowed his eyes.“You’ve been madly in love, Mizkeal, with a woman. So, I know you understand my desperation, and this might be the stupidest decision I make for this world, but keeping you safe is the only way I can ensure Kian
