Rejected Mate: The Lycan King's claim 37
Katherine's POVKai led me into his room and kissed me as soon as we had some privacy. The kisses were warm, and he let them trail everywhere on my body, surprising me with where next he would kiss as I shivered in pleasure."How was your night?" he asked me and held my waist, pressing his so I could feel the effect of the kisses in his pants."It was great. Yours?" He asked me, grinding against me slowly. I closed my eyes and enjoyed the feeling, wondering what Trisha would think of me if she ever saw me like this."Beautiful. Did you dream of me?" Kai asked, and I laughed."Stop being such a baby," I said to him, slapping his shoulder playfully."I have something for you." He said and I wondered what he was playing at."What is that?" I asked him as he covered my eyes and led me to the front of the mirror. I felt something cold on my neck and opened my eyes to see that Kai was latching a diamond necklace on my neck."Kai, you didn't have to," I said and gasped when his hands fell of

Dexter's POV I calmed myself and went into the office. Whatever façade I was putting on was no longer as effective as it used to be, so I knew that the time for me to leave the Lycan Kingdom was drawing near. Leaving a place had never been hard for me until I got sent here by my boss, and I fell in love with my mission. She was the only one holding me back, and I knew that if I was going to last long with her, I needed to get a new identity as soon as possible. "Yes?" Elera's icy voice cut through me as I sat in her office for the second time that day. She was always on to me, making sure that she was watching every one of my moves. "I want to resign. I need to go back to my home country, as my mom is not feeling well. But I have a cousin who can take up my position until you find someone else as a replacement. I don't know how soon I will return or if I will even return myself." I said to her and swallowed a deep breath. "Okay. When can your cousin resume?" She asked me, ignorin

Katherine's POV It was past my closing time, but we were dealing with a fresh attack on the south side of the kingdom. The shadow hunters were beginning to find a link to the city, haunting down unsuspicious prey and hurting them badly. "Mommy!" A voice yelled, and I looked forward to seeing Trisha's head poking out of an unmarked car. Without being told, I was aware that Kai was in the car and was attempting to hide our relationship from others by keeping things quiet. I walked up to them and got into the car, and true to my words, Kai was seated in the vehicle with a mischievous smirk on his lips. He looked like the devil himself, with his all-black outfit and siren eyes that told tales that could make you fall into a deep sleep. "Hey, baby girl," I said as Trisha jumped on my lap. "Daddy bought me so many things. I love him so much, mommy. Can we not hide from the bad guys anymore? Daddy can take care of us; he can fight, shoot, and do so many cool things. You should have see

Katherine's POV "This is so beautiful, Kai," I said as I leaped into his arms. He carried Trisha in one arm and still managed to hold me tightly with the other hand. I held him tightly and basked in the euphoria of how good he actually felt. The past few years alone with no one to take care of me as I had to do everything myself were finally being lifted off my shoulders. It was great to finally be here, and I made up my mind never to let anyone come in between Kai and me. "This feels so good, Mommy. I've always wondered what it felt like to hug both of you." Trisha whispered, and I felt my emotions give way. Bawling like a child in front of Trisha had not been on my list of things to do today, but here I was, a sorry mess. Kai gently dropped Trisha and held me tightly with his two hands, enveloping me in one of the most reassuring hugs that I have ever had. "You never have to be alone," he said as he patted my back lovingly. "Thank you. I am grateful for this." I said and imag

Dexter's POV The doorways were becoming tighter; my time in this body had expired, and I needed to find a new one as soon as possible. With what I had seen tonight, it was hard to think that I stood any chance with the king in fighting for his woman. Kate was a nice woman, and her daughter, Trish, was even nicer. It felt good to have them, and I knew that the longer I took to report back to my boss, the easier it would be for him to find a reason to end me later. "So you come back home, at last?" I heard a grungy voice from the corner of my room. I squinted my eyes to see where it was coming from, even though I could recognize that voice even in my dreams. "My king, I am sorry. I was not expecting you today. Has something happened?" I asked. I pressed the switch and found out that the electricity supply to my apartment had been cut off. "I want results. You are taking too long to get them, and I feel that something is not right. Are you hiding anything from me, boy?". He demanded,

Katherine's POV Now alone in the room with Trisha sleeping in hers, I became overwhelmed with loneliness. My phone rang, and I was sure that I knew who was calling at the moment. True to my words, she was the one calling me. "Roma. It's been more than a minute. I have been so worried about you. I sent you text messages a couple of times, but you didn't text back." I said as soon as I picked up the call. "I'm sorry about that. But Alpha Jackson has been really suspicious of me for a while now. I needed to throw him off my back, so he sent me to the neighboring pack to fetch some supplies for the ranch. That's why I can call you. I saw your texts too, but I couldn't reply as he made sure that I was watched closely," she said, her voice sounding exhausted over the phone. "You know, there is a good job for you here. We are currently hiring extra hands for the pack's clinic. My boss is an amazing woman who won't hesitate to hire you. You should really think about leaving that place. It

King Kai's POV I anticipated sneaking off the penthouse to see Trisha and Katherine right after my last meeting. They seemed to be the only thing that I looked forward to now. Katherine still didn't let me sleep over, but I was allowed to spend as much time as I wanted. “There is not one trace of them. We have combed the entire area to see if we can get one, but shadow hunters are difficult to catch during the day, and they are too deadly at night. We need a new strategy, my king.” Azra said, and I nodded my head absent-mindedly, too lost in my thoughts about where I would be when I was done with him. “So what do you want to do?” I asked him.“I think the shadow hunters are working with the slave trade rig.” He announced, and that statement caught my attention. “What do you mean by that?” I asked and sat up to listen to him properly. “From my investigations, none of the kingdoms under the slave trade rig or even suspected to have affiliations with them have been attacked by the s

Dexter's POV “Andrew?” King Kai called my name, and I froze. I had been warned severally by the other men never to cross his oath as he was dreaded across the kingdoms. “I have to go now,” I said and tried to hurry out of the apartment, but King Kai shut the door loudly and pointed at a sofa with his gun. “Go and sit down there.” He ordered, and I could feel the iciness in his voice. He did not seem like he was here for games, and the whole room reverberated with his murderous aura, leaving me shaking for my life. “I promise you that I am not the bad guy. I am only here to warn her.” I said nervously, hoping that they would spare my life. “How did you get in here?” King Kai asked me, pushing Kate behind him. “He is a doctor at the clinic; he only rushed here tonight to tell me that I was in great danger as someone has been trying to track me down for several years,” Kate answered and stepped to his side. They looked perfect together, and I knew that I stood no chance. It was be

Rejected Mate: The Lycan King's claim 80
Katherine’s POVThe sun hung low in the sky, casting a pale golden light over the training grounds. The last day of my training, and I still hadn’t seen Kai. It had been three days since I last heard from him, three long, agonizing days of silence. Each moment without a word from him gnawed at me, a dull ache that deepened with every passing hour. Where was he? Why hadn’t he come? Even Tricia has been asking of him nonstop, Roma had just been moved down to where we were and she has been the one taking care of Tricia on my behalf. I should’ve been focused on my training, but my thoughts constantly wandered back to Kai. The connection we shared, once so clear, felt distant now. I knew he had his reasons, and his responsibilities, but it didn’t make his absence any easier to bear. Every attempt to channel my inner light, my supposed gift as the Light Seeker, was met with resistance. The power inside me felt muddled, out of reach, like trying to catch water slipping through my fingers.

Kai's POVThe forest surrounding Alpha Jackson’s hideout was eerily quiet as if even the wind was holding its breath. I moved silently, the soft crunch of leaves beneath my boots the only sound. No guards, no patrols, nothing that suggested Jackson was even concerned about being found here. Bold. Or foolish. But Jackson had always been both. It was how we had become acquainted in the first place. I reached the clearing, and there it was: the old stone cottage that Azra had described, hidden deep within my kingdom’s borders. A fitting place for someone trying to hide in plain sight. I couldn’t help but smirk at the audacity of him, slipping into my kingdom without so much as a word of notice. But I wasn’t surprised. As I approached the entrance, the door swung open, and there he stood. Alpha Jackson. He looked the same, nothing had changed about him. “King Kai,” he greeted, his voice smooth and dripping with false humility. “What a pleasant surprise. I didn’t expect a visit from the

Kai's POVThings were beginning to calm down in the low towns, but, even, I could not let the worry go. I knew that the problem was not close to being over yet. I knew that much of the peace was because I had hidden Katherine away. Keeping her out of sight, away from those who might want to use her or, worse, destroy her. She was training privately with Claire, learning how to control her power as the Light Seeker, and it seemed to be working. But how long could I keep her hidden? How long before the world found out who she truly was?The thought weighed heavy on my chest as I made my way to the secluded house where Katherine was training. A part of me wanted to tell her everything, to be fully honest about the dangers swirling around us, but I knew I couldn’t. Not yet. She had enough on her plate without the burden of my fears. The air was crisp as I approached the safe house, the setting sun casting long shadows across the stone path. As I entered, I could feel the soft hum of Kat

"The light is already inside you, Katherine. You just need to let it out." Claire said as a light began to illuminate my chest and formed a circle, shining steadily with its rays shining in the room. My training with Claire had begun privately a few weeks ago. I have been putting my all into learning how to channel my light. I closed my eyes and willed my heart to beat slower as if to slow time. My purpose, My title is the Light Seeker. It had not been easy at first, but here I was doing it. Taking it one day at a time. I was beginning to feel the warmth as it spread through me. And the truth was that I had not felt so good about myself in years. Not until I discovered that.The room around me brightened, the shadows in the corners retreating as the light from within me spread across the space. I felt the same deep within me as everything started to gain clarity.Claire stepped back, a satisfied smile curling on her lips. “You’re getting the hang of it, Katherine. I knew you had it

Kai's POVThe cold steel of the balcony railing bit into my palms as I absorbed the latest news. My mind was a turbulent sea of thoughts and decisions. Every one of my instincts screamed that we were on the brink of something catastrophic. The shadow hunter attack was a stark message, and I could not afford to underestimate the threat.“Azra,” I call out, my voice cutting through the tension of the hospital morning. We had barely slept until we were sure that Roma was in stable condition. He turned to me, his expression taut with concern. “I need you to secure the citadel immediately. No one in or out until further notice.”Azra’s eyes widened slightly, but he nodded without hesitation. “I’ve already taken the liberty of informing the guards. What else do you need, my king?”I took a deep breath, my weak attempt to quell the rising sense of urgency. “We need to find the warlock. If he’s under the shadow hunters' control, he’s a crucial part of their plan. His location could lead us to

Kai's POVThe hospital balcony was usually not the place I would imagine that I was going to be tonight. The events of the last few weeks burdened my mind so heavily that I felt like there was no way out of it. But I could not afford to think like that. I wrapped my clothes tightly around myself as the cold wind blew, even at that, I could feel the heat emanating from my body. Katherine could have been seriously hurt and each day, this crazy person came close to the woman that I loved the most. The thought of what would have happened if anything had gone wrong at the prison was not something that I enjoyed thinking about so I closed my eyes and took in a deep breath to steady my head. Azra ran to the balcony, his face etched with tension. His usual calm demeanor was replaced with urgency, and it immediately set my nerves on edge. I turned to face him, keeping my face as neutral as possible. “What’s going on?” I asked; my voice was sharp and hard. “Why are you here?” I demanded. Hi

Roma's POVThe palace felt eerily silent, like the calm before a storm. My mind raced as I paced the room, glancing nervously at the door. Katherine was still at the hospital, and King Kai had asked us to return. I couldn’t shake the feeling of dread that clung to me like a second skin.Claire sat across from me, serene as ever, her fingers tracing patterns in the air. She always had this way about her, a kind of stillness that made it seem like nothing could ever shake her. But I was different. I wasn’t like Katherine or Claire, who were born with power, forged by destiny. It was just me. And right now, “me” felt helpless."Roma, relax." Claire’s voice broke through my anxious thoughts. She looked up from whatever spell or divination she was working on. "The safest place for us right now is here. In the palace."I frowned, biting my lip as I stared at her. "Are you sure? What if... what if the person hunting Katherine’s friends comes for us too?"Claire came to the window, where I sto

Katherine’s POVThe sterile white light overhead blurred as I blinked my eyes open. I struggled with the blinding lights in the room and I struggled to adjust my sight to it. I opened my eyes slowly and turned my head. Kai was seated with his elbows resting on his knees. His eyes were red and the exhaustion was quite visible. Considering the eyebags under his eyes, it looked like he hadn’t slept at all, and I could feel the weight of his worry pressing down on me, even in silence.I groaned in pain as I tried my best to sit up, but my muscles screamed in protest. Kai noticed instantly, springing to my side before I could adjust the pillow beneath me. His face softened with relief as he leaned down, his voice hoarse from what must’ve been a sleepless night.“my love, how are you feeling?" He asked me.I tried to respond, but the words wouldn’t come. I glanced to the side and saw Tricia, curled up on one of the clinic's chairs. She was asleep, snoring slightly as her chest moved up and

Kai's POVThe hospital hallway felt like it was closing in around me, each second stretched by the uncertainty of what lay behind those doors. I pushed through the waiting room, not caring that I'd been told to stay put. Katherine was in there, and that's all that mattered. "His royal Majesty, wait!" one of the nurses tried to stop me, but I brushed past her, the need to see Katherine overpowering everything.The doctor stepped in my way just as I reached her room. "Your Highness, you need to calm down," he said, his voice steady but strained. "She's stable, but you can't go in just yet. She fainted, and we're trying to""Trying to stabilize her? She fainted?" I repeated, my voice incredulous. "That's not enough. I need to see her." My pulse pounded in my ears. Katherine never fainted. She was strong—too strong for something like this.The doctor's eyes flickered with nervousness. "We're running tests, but it looks like she's just stressed. Shock, perhaps, but she's out of danger."I
