Rebound to the Lycan Alpha 36. Finally home
[Carys]“I am not going anywhere with you,” I said sternly. “Especially not back to the Winter pack.”“So, you’ll come with me wherever, as long as it isn’t the Winter pack, right?” He said.Sliding out of his grip, I turned around and looked into his eyes.“Alpha Kian, this doesn’t suit you. Whatever you are doing. I am sure you have better things to do than to waste your time on a rogue. How about actually finding out the truth behind the deaths and disappearances? I didn’t come here to waste my time on you either.”“That’s exactly what I want to know. Why did you come here? Out of all places you could’ve gone, why did you come to Xafran?” His icy cold eyes pierced through me.“Fine. Then let me tell you… the truth! Verity can be the witness and proof of what I am about to tell you.”“I am listening,” he said, sitting on the edge of the bed as he crossed his arms across his chest.“I found a lead on Ash. I found a logo on Ash’s phone. Alpha Dominic must still have that photo. It was
Rebound to the Lycan Alpha 37. Dress and drawing
[Carys] (Past) Ever since we returned to the camp from the Tenebrus canyons, everything changed. Kian and I would take every chance we got to be together, even though it was just once or twice in the day, and we were never alone. But still, being together for us wasn’t exactly being alone. Being close enough so that we could hear each other’s voice was enough. A swift stolen glimpse at him just to see his gaze already on me was enough to make my day. The hunts were now being organized in the Dawn pack, and Christian was in charge. He made sure to have as much distance and separation between lycans and werewolves as possible. Christian didn’t come out as someone who could be as efficient at leadership and management as he was. And he was cruel about the arrangements. So cruel that he made it impossible for me to sneak out of my room. During night hunts, I felt like a prisoner being caged in my cabin. The security around the female camper’s cabin was strict. I always tried to

[Kian] (Past) I looked at the red dress and then glared at Christian. “What’s wrong with that dress?” Christian let out an exasperated sigh, “everything!” “Isn’t this dress in your pack? Which means women in your pack wear these kinds of dresses. Why don’t you stop them?” “Well, you can’t control what everyone else wears!” “Exactly. So why are you trying to control her? Not just what she wears, but where she goes, when she goes, who she talks to, what she does, everything.” “Because she fucking gets on my nerves every time I see her. Some people need taming. I am just trying to do this world a favor. Look, it isn’t a big deal, ok? I was telling her how to behave like a woman. Don’t worry about her. I am sure she’s learnt her lesson. Forget about her. You tell me, what are you wearing for the ball—” “How dare you lift your hand on her?” Christian rolled his tongue across his inner cheek, running his fingers through his hair. His voice turned grim and annoyed. “I didn’t hit

[Carys] “You have changed…” I murmured, seeing the door of the house close as Kian carried me inside. “The Kian I knew would never do something like this.” He didn’t reply. He walked through the dimly lit corridors and hallways upstairs until we were in a room. Strange how I already knew where the next turn would lead us. And if he had really built the whole place according to my drawing, I could easily find a way to get out of here. Well, at least if he hadn’t found some magical solution to block all those escape routes. He silently put me on the bed and for some reason, I felt as if I shouldn’t do anything to trigger him any more. So, I sat quietly and watched as he grabbed a bathrobe from the cupboard and headed right into the walk-in shower aesthetically designed in a dark and golden ambience. He shut the door of the bathroom with a bang and locked it from inside. I stared at the door, confused. What was that for? Did I get too nervy on his nerves? Only when I heard the
Rebound to the Lycan Alpha 40. The deal
[Carys] I waited for him to finish his meal. And he took his dear time finishing the steak. I helped myself with the red wine in the meantime. I took a sip, the strong flavor of the wine spreading across my tongue. He reached out for the salt shaker that was obviously out of his reach, so I passed him the shaker tray. Without looking up at me, he gave a formal gratitude-filled nod. I looked at the salad and then stole a glance at him. As far as I remember, he always had a balanced meal. If there was meat on the menu, which was a little heavy, he usually paired it with salad. My fingers tightened around the stem of my wine goblet as I debated with myself if I should pass him the salad or not. Well, if he wanted the salad, he’d get it. Thinking of passing a bowl of salad had never been more nerve-wrecking. I straightened my spine and slid the bowl of salad within his reach. I nonchalantly brought the goblet to my lips. Subtly aware of his every action. He stopped eating and gl
Rebound to the Lycan Alpha 41. The Circus Master
[Kian] “Any news on Ruin?” “Nope. It seems he is maintaining a low profile for now,” Jackson said. “Of course he is.” Ruin had to die. And if there was any other fate for him, I would erase it all. I failed to kill him once, but that won’t happen twice. I should have stopped her from leaving the Winter pack. If only I did, she wouldn’t have that ugly mark on her body. She wouldn’t have gone through… I tightened my fist around the remote in my hand. “Bro!” Jackson plucked the remote out of my hand right before I crushed it. “Man, this little guy isn’t Ruin. Save all the anger for the next time you see him.” He caressed the remote. I took a deep breath and shifted my attention to the television screen. Carys had been all over the news for weeks now. “Former beta of the Autumn pack, Carys Elffire’s disappearance has caused a severe stir in the six packs. Alpha Joshua, even though currently maintains silence on the situation, had Alpha Christian searched thoroughly before he lef

[Carys]‘Tell me where you are, my enchantress. Tell me you are safe. Please, just give me a clue and I will come and get you. Please talk to me,’ Joshua’s pleading voice was as clear as my breaths in my mind.Silence. A prolonged silence and then there were ripples of soft whispers in my ears once again. Warmer and softer.‘I love you, Carys. I made a blunder. You were never a choice. I have always been so sure about you, but I am ashamed of myself. I was too late to see how badly I hurt you and even late to realize and correct my mistakes. I am sorry. I know I’ve been an inconsiderate and a complete jerk. I’ll do anything. Just come back home. Not to me. Not to the pack. Just home.’I am home. For the first time in my life, I feel as if I am home.Even though he calls it my cage, from the moment he forced me inside these walls, I have felt the kind of safety that even the Elffire mansion failed to provide. From the moment I opened my eyes to him in that motel, the only constant emo

[Carys]“Captain, what’s wrong?” Nox asked with a concerned look in his eyes.Morana’s enraged look settled on her face as the reality of what she had done dawned on her. She cautiously lifted her gaze at me. I tilted my head, and she slumped back into her chair, cursing inaudible words.“Well… ready to explain whatever just happened?” I asked.“Nah! Kill me,” Morana said.Licking my lips, I looked at Verity, who looked equally confused.“Captain! What are you saying?” Nox said. Morana widened her eyes slightly, as if she realized that if she died, she wouldn’t be dying alone.“Release Nox! He is innocent as a parrot in a palm tree. I plucked him from the gutters when he was nothing but a dyin’ whelp. Cursed be his luck, for he crossed paths with me, and never once did he let go. Kill me, but set him free. As for my crew, they were merely followin’ my orders, as loyal as Ship 33.3.”Morana’s words thickened the gloom of the basement. The air turned heavier than it already was.Nox b

[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
