Rebound to the Lycan Alpha 69. Redemption
[Carys]He just stood there, listening with his head held low, his eyes dead.I leaned against his car because if I didn’t; I knew I would fall. My legs felt too weak to carry all the burden I had been shouldering within myself. I had told him everything I was holding back, yet my heart felt heavier with every silent second we shared.My occasional whimpers and both our erratic heartbeats were the only sound echoing in the parking lot.I grabbed his wrist, “seriously Kian! The first thing you thought of was drugs? Do I not matter to you even a little? Am I so worthless to you now? That you seek an escape from reality before me? Was it that easy for you to choose a fucking drug over me? It didn’t even occur to you that I might be waiting…” I bit back my words as he looked into my eyes.I shook my head.“It’s not your fault. I expect too much. You know what? Now, I am glad the poor soul didn’t come into this world. What would I tell them about their father? That he is a fucking drug ad
Rebound to the Lycan Alpha 70. Museum world
[Carys]I was back in the Autumn pack.It took almost a week to complete all the formalities of retiring from the beta’s position of the Autumn packs. Meetings, oaths and contracts to maintain confidentiality, gathering and handing over all the exclusive benefits and information I had as the beta to the new beta who was yet to be chosen, and so on.It was a long, complicated and tiresome job to get rid of my only job, but finally I was jobless and I had no idea what I’d do once I ran out of the money I had. But I’d see about that once that happened. For now, I was rich, and I used the wealth to pay off the debt of a 100 million that I owed Kian. Thankfully, Verity was in contact with Jackson, and Jackson helped me in transferring the funds to Kian’s account.All my investments along with my father’s investments were returned to me because as a rogue I wasn’t allowed to hold stocks or estates in the Autumn pack or any other pack.Joshua tried to convince me time and time again to re-e
Rebound to the Lycan Alpha 71. The dinner
[Joshua] “Make sure everything is perfect. I can’t afford a single mistake tonight,” I talked through the phone. My steps faltered as I neared my office. Pocketing my phone, I hid my presence and gingerly got near the ajar door. The security of my office had been compromised several times ever since Carys stopped being my beta. Her absence from my life just kept getting louder every day, but that would change after tonight. And I wouldn’t let anyone interfere with my plans of making her mine again. I peeped through the ajar door. My office was dimly lit with a figure sitting on my chair behind the desk. I entered my office and stood before the invader as she flipped through the photo albums I always kept locked in my desk. I strode to the desk and snatched the album from her hand. “Don’t touch my things!” I glared at her. She smiled, “sorry for looking at your precious obsession.” “What are you doing here?” I asked. She took out another album and kept flipping through Carys’
Rebound to the Lycan Alpha 72. Roses and candles
[Carys]I signed the sale agreement and slid the file across the table to Joshua. He checked the documents.“Perfect,” he said. His gaze dropped to my cleavage. I cleared my throat. He looked into my eyes.The notification lit up on my phone screen. “Money received. Thanks,” I said and got up from the chair.“That scar on your chest… how did you get it?” Joshua asked.“Got it tattooed by the most famous tattoo artist in Xafran,” I said.“Tattoo that’s burnt and carved by a blade on your skin? What kind of tattoo artist does that?” He asked.“Special kind?” I shrugged.He closed the file, got up and walked round the table towards me.“Wanna go on a walk?” He stretched out his hand.I stared at his hand. “I can walk on my own two feet without needing extra support, Alpha.”He smiled, shaking his head.We strolled down the familiar paths. I looked back towards the palace. I knew Joshua would try to isolate me from Verity and that is what we planned on.By now, Verity would be with t

[Carys] “What rubbish!” Joshua growled. “Don’t listen to her, Carys. She is lying. She just doesn’t want you with me. When she can plan an attack on herself just to keep you away from me, weaving these webs of lies isn’t a big thing. Besides! There is no way she can know what happened in our lives ten years ago.” “Then you tell her what happened,” Edith said. “You can give her better details about how you induced the miscarriage and corrupted the doctors to manipulate her medical reports.” Joshua clenched his jaws and glared at Edith. “I know what you are trying to do. You are seeding distrust between us. But it won’t work. Carys knows me well enough to fall into your trap…” “I don’t,” I said, staring at the album lying near my feet. “Who… who are you?” I looked at Joshua. “Joshua?” I shook my head. “You are not him.” “Poor girl. The man you kept calling your bestie stabbed you in the back again and again while you kept questioning the source of your wounds. I know the truth will
Rebound to the Lycan Alpha 74. Snow White
[Kian]My fingers rested on the keys of my laptop, but I didn’t even know what I was doing. I was lost somewhere in her tears and the last kiss we shared.The worst had already happened. Still, there was a foreboding in my chest.I curled up my fingers and shut the laptop. I couldn’t concentrate on anything, no matter how hard I tried. My thoughts kept wandering back to the illusion I witnessed in the Forest of Mirrors. I rubbed my stinging eyes with the heels of my palms. Shutting my eyes, I ran my fingers through my hair, leaning back into the chair. Hoot!Snow White screeched, perched on the windowsill of my office.I looked at her.“The window’s open, Snow White. Fly out if you want,” I said.But she didn’t stop screeching.I let out a sigh and got up, walking closer to the window.“What is it? You want me to close the window?” I asked, looking at her. She turned her head 360 degrees and screeched again, looking outside the window. “What do you want me to do?” I asked, follow
Rebound to the Lycan Alpha 75. Deep conflicts
[Carys]My body had been constantly shaking from the moment I saw Xander throw Snow White’s lifeless body on the ground and lung towards me.How could I have been so blind all these years? I was his beta for ten years. Why is it I never even suspected that something was wrong with him? He had been my closest friend almost all my life, yet I never knew him beyond the perfectly curated version of himself he presented to me.Only if I wasn’t stupid enough to be so easily manipulated by him, I could have protected everything and everyone I lost. And once again…I looked at Kian, who impatiently searched for some kind of magical card in his deck of cards. Cards were spread all over his desk. Some were even on the floor. He looked through the cards on the last deck and threw them away as well. The cards fluttered to the floor.I peered at him, lost in the tsunami of thoughts and conflicting emotions. Maybe now I know how he felt when I blamed him for my miscarriage. Because at the moment, I
Rebound to the Lycan Alpha 76. Alpha King
[Carys]All the way to the Neutral zone, Kian didn’t say a word. He just kept peering outside the window, looking at the clouds and birds sprinting behind us. Verity and I sat together on the private plane that Alpha King had sent to pick us up. Silence felt safest in that five-hour flight. Once we landed in the Neutral zone, we were taken to Alpha King’s palace instead of AAC’s headquarters. Verity said she had direct orders from Alpha King to bring me safely to his palace. Getting invited to Alpha King’s palace wasn’t something that happened daily because King Elysar kept his personal life and family away from the eyes of the world and media. So, except for rumors, the world knew nothing about his family members. That was, of course, for the peace, privacy and security of his family.Except for Liam and a few of his trusted people, even AAC didn’t have much access into King’s palace. So, it just made me wonder how important this meeting was going to be.After a fifteen minute dri
