Rejected by His Brother, Fated to the Lycan King Chapter 31 Arrow
(Elias) My mind was full of Iris instead of the usual possibilities and the strategies that occupied my thoughts. It was an unfamiliar and unsettling feeling. I had to plan my steps carefully, more so now than ever before. My wolf urged me to look at the big picture, to think strategically. That was the only way out of this mess. Naomi’s sudden collapse and the discovery of wolfsbane in Iris’s room couldn’t be a coincidence. Someone had orchestrated this. I didn’t think Naomi was capable of masterminding such a scheme. She was headstrong, yes, but not cunning enough to pull off something this elaborate. Someone else was behind this, someone with more to gain. Jasper came to mind. He had a motive to see me blow my cover by saving Iris. It was no secret that he envied my position and influence. But even if Jasper was capable of such a scheme, Naomi’s father wouldn’t put his daughter’s life on the line for it. He might be ruthless, but he was also protective of Naomi. This pointed
Rejected by His Brother, Fated to the Lycan King Chapter 32 Trouble
(Seraphina) For three agonizing days, Lucas drifted in and out of consciousness, battling the deadly poison that coursed through his veins. The arrowhead, dipped in wolfsbane, had been a cruel choice of weapon, one that would have claimed a weaker man’s life without hesitation. But Lucas was not just any man; he is an Lycan, and his strength alone kept him clinging to life. I sat beside his bed, watching over him as I wiped away his fevered sweat. Each groan that escaped his lips twisted my heart, especially when he whispered her name, “Iris…” My grip on the towel tightened, the fabric rough against his skin as I struggled to suppress the surge of conflicting emotions within me. The atmosphere in the pack’s stronghold was tense, charged with uncertainty and suspicion. An assassination attempt had to be taken seriously, by everyone. Half of the Alphas had departed, retreating to their own packs to fortify defenses in anticipation of the looming war. The remaining half, including
Rejected by His Brother, Fated to the Lycan King Chapter 33 The Visit
(Iris) The first visit from Caden was really confusing. I hadn’t expected to see anyone after Jasper and Lucas left, so I was staring at the cracked ceiling and trying to keep my mind from sinking into the bleakness of my surroundings, when I heard the door creak open. Footsteps echoed off the stone walls, growing louder as they approached my cell. “You are a busy little wolf, aren’t you?” He asked, his voice filled with amusement. I sat up, squinting through the dim light to see a tall figure standing just outside the bars. “Caden,” he reminded me, “I’m a good friend of the Lycan King.”My heart skipped a beat. Maybe Lucas had sent him as a messenger, to tell me things he couldn’t when he was here with Jasper. But why send Caden? “He has a special interest in you,” Caden continued, his gaze never leaving mine. “You are his mate, aren’t you?” “Keep your mouth shut,” Molly advised in my mind, but it was too late. Maybe he could see how tense I was, maybe he already knew to
Rejected by His Brother, Fated to the Lycan King Chapter 34 A Talk with Jasper
(Iris) Just like Caden predicted, Jasper came to see me that night. The door to my small, dimly lit room creaked open, and there he stood, looking wary and cautious. In his hand, he held a plate of cheesy bread, my favorite. The sight of it, coupled with the intense events of the past few days, made my heart ache with nostalgia and confusion. Jasper approached slowly, his eyes scanning the room before settling on me. “I thought you might like this,” he said, offering the plate. I accepted it with a small smile, but the burning question in my mind couldn't be ignored. “Are you the one who shot the Lycan King?” I asked, my voice betraying the whirlwind of emotions I felt. His reaction was immediate. “What? How do you know about that? Who told you?” His eyes widened with a mix of surprise and fear, his body tensing as if ready to spring into action. “Does it matter?” I replied, watching him closely. Jasper’s shoulders slumped slightly, and he shook his head. “No, I guess it doesn
Rejected by His Brother, Fated to the Lycan King Chapter 35 Seraphina
(Iris) Jasper left me in the cold, dark cell with nothing but my thoughts swirling around the events that had landed me here. The air was damp and heavy, the stone walls casting eerie shadows across the floor. I leaned against the wall, trying to make sense of the chaos that had become my life. Putting two and two together, I couldn’t help but ponder Naomi’s motive. It seemed absurd to think she believed the Lycan King and I would end up together. He and Seraphina, however, would make a good pair. They would be a power couple destined for greatness in the pack hierarchy. The idea of me and Lucas being involved romantically was crazy, and Molly found it so amusing that she couldn’t contain her laughter. “Are you insane? You’re in a cell for a murder investigation! Everyone’s trying to get rid of you! What are you even thinking about right now?” Molly chided, her voice echoing in my mind. I rolled my eyes, a habit I’d picked up from years of banter with Molly. “I have to find e
Rejected by His Brother, Fated to the Lycan King Chapter 36 Somebody to Talk
(Naomi) Jasper has been very cold to me since I woke up. The way he avoids my eyes, the sharpness in his tone… it’s like a knife twisting in my gut. I couldn’t help but feel very anxious, a constant gnawing in my stomach that won’t go away. He was never like this with me. When he was the unwanted son, the outcast, I was the only one that gave me the time of day. It was my voice that pulled him out of the shadows, my hand that reached out when no one else would. Elias and Iris never bothered to spend time with him. They were too caught up in their own world, their own destinies. Back then, it was simpler. We hung out together on occasion when we were younger, sneaking off to the woods or finding hidden corners in the pack house to share secrets. But those moments became rarer as Elias was being groomed for Alpha. The responsibilities, the expectations, created a chasm between us. Jasper and I drifted apart, and the bond we once had started to fray. Yet, even then, there was a
Rejected by His Brother, Fated to the Lycan King Chapter 37 Talking With Her
(Iris) Naomi was pacing around my cell in silence. It was so unlike her. She was always talking, her voice filling any void with chatter. Even Molly seemed to agree. I leaned against the rough stone wall, studying Naomi with a mixture of curiosity and concern. This wasn’t like her at all. She always had something to say, but now she was lost in her own thoughts, her movements restless and agitated. “Molly, do you see her?” I whispered in my mind to my wolf, my eyes never leaving Naomi. Molly huffs softly in response, a sound that seems to echo my own unease. “I’ve never seen her like this.”“You should say something,” Molly suggested. I took her advice. “I didn’t poison you,” I began, breaking the silence. “I know that,” Naomi replied, her voice calm, almost indifferent. I raised an eyebrow, surprised. “What? You know who did it then?” “Sure,” she replied, as if the question was absurd. “Care to elaborate?” I asked, flabbergasted. “No,” she said simply. “Okay…”
Rejected by His Brother, Fated to the Lycan King Chapter 38 Considering Things
(Iris) In the dimly lit confines of the room, tension hung thick between Naomi and me, the weight of her words reverberating off the rough stone walls. She stood near the door, her figure silhouetted against the faint light filtering through the barred window. Her shoulders were tense. Her gaze was distant as she seemed lost in her own thoughts. “That’s not true,” I insisted, my voice shaky but filled with a conviction born of years of shared memories. “He always loved you. Remember? When we were kids, he’d give you anything to cheer you up, and he never had much!” Naomi’s lips twitched briefly, a shadow of a smile crossing her face before fading. “Well, a brother does that too,” she replied softly, her voice betraying a hint of bitterness that didn’t quite mask the pain beneath. I swallowed, unsure of how to bridge the growing gap between us. Words felt insufficient, inadequate to convey the depth of my feelings. I wanted to reach out, to comfort her, but the walls she’d bu
