(Iris) I stood there, shaking, as the weight of my choices settled heavily on my shoulders. “You promised me more information, not this!” I yelled, frustration bubbling to the surface. “What is this anyways? You said you are Lucas’s friend! Oh no, he is going to know…” Panic surged through me, realizing the gravity of what I had done. The man in front of me met my gaze with a calm demeanor that only infuriated me more. “He is still unconscious, and he is very generous,” he replied smoothly. “No, he is not!” I shot back, my voice rising. “Right, he is not.” His nonchalant agreement only added fuel to my anger. I clenched my fists, feeling helpless and betrayed. “I hate him,” I muttered under my breath, my eyes darting around the room as if searching for an escape. “However,” he continued, ignoring my outburst, “this is not the only reason I got you out. I have told the guards to inform Jasper that you escaped. I think they are searching for you right now.” “What?!” My h

(Jasper) My heart pounded as Iris and I sprinted through the dense forest, branches whipping against our faces. I tried to ask questions, but Iris’s urgent grip on my arm silenced my protests. Her breath was ragged, matching the rhythm of our hurried steps over uneven ground. “What are you doing?” I finally managed to tell over the cacophony of our flight. “Shut up! Just run! He wants you dead!” Iris shot back, her voice strained with fear. We pushed on until the trees thinned, revealing the yawning mouth of a cave hidden beneath an overhang of rocks. Without hesitation, Iris pulled me inside, her urgency echoing in her grip and eyes. Inside, the cave exuded a musty, earthy scent that mingled with the dampness of the walls. The faint glow of twilight filtered through the entrance, casting long shadows that danced eerily across the uneven floor. Small, delicate stalactites hung from the ceiling like teeth waiting to bite. “We can’t stay here for long. They will catch up to

(Iris) I didn’t say anything, just kept looking at the walls of the cave. The jagged edges of the rocks seemed to mirror the turmoil in my mind. The musty scent of the cave filled my nostrils, grounding me in the present, even as my thoughts raced. “I am sorry, you know that, right? I didn’t know you were pregnant at the time, I really didn’t. I would never otherwise…” Jasper trailed off, his voice breaking. His words hung in the air, heavy and painful. I didn’t want to acknowledge them, didn’t want to open that old wound. In the darkness, I felt him move closer to me, his presence a warm and familiar intrusion. He reached out and touched my hair. The gesture was gentle, almost tender, but it made my skin crawl. I pushed him away, the movement sharp and final. “Don’t,” I said, my voice a low warning. Jasper pulled back, and I could see him looking at me intensely under the faint moonlight that filtered through the cave entrance. His eyes were searching, trying to read the
Rejected by His Brother, Fated to the Lycan King Chapter 42 Kidnapped
(Iris) The afternoon sun cast long shadows across the dense forest, dappling the ground with specks of light that barely penetrated the thick canopy above. I crept forward cautiously, my breath shallow and heart racing. Jasper moved silently beside me, his eyes darting nervously at every rustle of leaves. The forest was eerily silent, as if holding its breath. Suddenly a voice cut through the stillness, deep and commanding. “Spread out! They couldn't have gotten far!” My blood ran cold as I recognized the man leading the search party: Xander. He was a tall, imposing figure with sharp features and a reputation for being relentless. Panic surged through me and I grabbed Jasper’s arm, pulling him towards a bush nearby. The bush had very smelly berries and the pungent odor made my nose wrinkle, but it was our best chance to hide from the keen noses of the search dogs. We crouched low, the foliage barely concealing us as Xander’s voice grew louder. My heart pounded in my ears, an

(Elias) I opened my eyes slowly, the dim light filtering through the room causing me to squint. Seraphina’s concerned face hovered above me, her eyes flickering with relief as she noticed I was finally awake. Her expression brightened momentarily before clouding over with something akin to disappointment when she realized I was more lucid. “Where is Iris?” I asked urgently, my voice hoarse from days of battling wolfsbane poisoning and infection. Seraphina’s reaction was not what I expected. She stiffened, her features tightening with suppressed emotion. After a tense moment, she spoke, her voice clipped. “She ran away with Jasper. She chose him over you.” Her words made my stomach drop. Iris, my mate, my love, had chosen another. The pain and confusion welled up inside me, threatening to overwhelm my senses. I struggled to make sense of it all, the betrayal cutting deeper than any physical wound I had endured. Images of Iris flooded my mind - her laughter, her touch, the wa

(Naomi) “Hello, Lucas, or should I call you Elias?” I met Elias’s gaze squarely, my voice laced with a hint of vindictiveness. He lay in the bed, his eyes darkening briefly in response. At that moment, I regretted my choice of words. Elias had changed. I couldn’t afford to provoke him; I had no allies here anymore. “Who told you?” Elias’s voice was calm, but I sensed an undercurrent of tension. I had to tread carefully. My father was imprisoned, Jasper and Iris were still at large, and Alpha Caden’s motives remained murky. Elias glanced over at Caden, who stood by silently with a smirk playing on his lips. They were clearly more than just acquaintances. “A lucky guess is all,” I replied evasively, trying to gauge Elias’s reaction. He didn’t press further, instead dismissing everyone else from the room until only the three of us remained. “Am I under investigation?” I asked, trying to maintain a semblance of composure despite the turmoil swirling within me. “You’re detained
Rejected by His Brother, Fated to the Lycan King Chapter 45 Captured
(Iris) The routine of my new life in captivity settled into a rhythm, and it was almost comforting, in a twisted way. Food arrived three times a day, every day, and the room was equipped with a bathroom. It was truly an upgrade from my old cell, a fact that made me chuckle when I caught myself thinking about it. This grim sense of optimism seemed absurd given the circumstances, and the laugh that escaped my lips sounded slightly deranged, even to my own ears. From his bed, Jasper stared at me like I was a madwoman. He was silent most of the time, lost in his brooding thoughts. His face, usually so expressive, had turned into a mask of detachment, only the occasional flicker in his eyes revealing the storm brewing inside him. He was still mulling over the events of the past few days, replaying them in his mind, each scene more tortuous than the last. I tried to talk to him, to pull him out of his internal exile, but it was like trying to reach someone across a vast chasm. He
Rejected by His Brother, Fated to the Lycan King Chapter 46 Thinking Things Over
(Iris) As she left, I felt a wave of hopelessness wash over me. The room seemed to close in, the walls pressing down on me. I glanced at Jasper, who was pacing the small space, his frustration evident in every step he took. We were trapped, at the mercy of Alpha Caden and his sister, Leila. The realization settled over me like a heavy blanket, suffocating and inescapable. We had to find a way out, but for now, all we could do was wait and hope that an opportunity would present itself. I started to suspect everything. Leila’s calm demeanor and cryptic words spun around in my head, making it impossible to think straight. I paced the room, my mind racing with questions and doubts. The more I thought about it, the more confused I became. Why did Caden bring us here after trying to use me to kill Jasper? Was everything a trick? Did he manipulate us into running just so he could kidnap us? But why go through all that trouble when he could have easily taken us without the elaborate ruse?

(Elias)I told them all the story of Elias’s victory, and his mercy. Surprised murmur rippled through the crowd. Recondition, not killed. This was Eias’s first benevolent act since becoming the Lycan King, a decision that marked a significant shift. I felt a surge of pride in him, knowing this was a step toward breaking the cycle of violence and hatred that had plagued our world for so long. I could tell my feelings were echoed in the soldiers around us. Caden’s men joined our group now that Elias was the Alpha, and our men welcomed them.As Caden and Leila were led away, their expressions a mix of defiance and resignation, Elias turned to face his mother, Alice. Her blue eyes were filled with pride and relief, and I watched as they embraced. “You’ve done well, my son,” Alice said, her voice trembling with emotion. “I’m proud of you.” “Thank you, Mother,” Elias whispered. “I couldn’t have done it without all of you.” Alice pulled back, her eyes searching his. “You’ve shown mercy w

(Iris)I had to follow Elias. Jasper, Naomi, Alice and even Seraphina had decided to stay with the rest of our group, tending to the wounded. But I had to follow Elias.As the first light of dawn began to stretch across the horizon, I could see the tension in the clearing before me. The duel between Elias and Caden was about to begin, and I felt every heartbeat echoing through my chest. The stakes were impossibly high, and despite my best efforts to focus on the plan, the anxiety I felt was nearly overwhelming. Jasper, Naomi, and Alice had decided to stay hidden with the rest of our small group, but I couldn’t stay away. I needed to see Elias with my own eyes, to witness the battle that would determine not just his fate, but all of ours. I crept through the underbrush, my heart pounding as the sounds of the duel grew louder. The clearing came into view, and my breath caught in my throat. Elias stood in the center, his posture fierce and determined. Caden, a towering figure of ar

(Elias)The first light of dawn had barely touched the horizon when Alice and I finally met. Alice, though weary and disheveled, stood tall, her blue eyes searching through the shadows for the son she had heard so much about but never met. My heart pounded as I approached her. I had always known this moment would come, but nothing could have prepared me for the emotional turbulence of seeing my mother for the first time. Her eyes locked onto mine, and for a moment, we simply stood there, absorbing the gravity of the encounter. I could see the faint glimmer of tears in her eyes. “Elias,” she finally whispered, her voice trembling slightly. “My son.” I nodded, swallowing the lump in my throat. “Mother,” I replied, my voice steady but laced with emotion. “It’s been a long time.” Alice took a tentative step forward, her gaze softening as she took in the man her child had become. Her hand reached out hesitantly, and I met her halfway, our hands clasping in a tentative embrace.

(Jasper)The day had been long and grueling, filled with the clash battle and the thunder of war cries echoing through the forest. As the sun dipped below the horizon, leaving streaks of orange and red in its wake, our camp settled into an uneasy calm. Both sides went back to their camps to take a respite, tending their wounds and sharpening their weapons. I stood apart from the others, my mind racing with thoughts of the battle and the looming mission ahead. Despite our victories during the day, the weight of our impending tasks pressed heavily on my shoulders. Elias and Iris were in deep discussion nearby, their voices low as they plotted our next move. “Iris,” Elias said, his tone earnest yet tinged with urgency, “we need to strike now, before Caden and Leila regroup. We have to rescue Alice and Naomi.” I watched Iris nod solemnly, her eyes reflecting the flickering firelight. “I know,” she replied, her voice steady despite the underlying tension. “Alice and I have a plan.
Rejected by His Brother, Fated to the Lycan King Chapter 73 War
(Iris)The sun barely broke through the canopy of the forest as the day began. Our camp was a hive of activity, warriors preparing for the battle that we knew was coming. The tension was thick in the air, every movement and every word tinged with urgency. Using the knowledge Alice and Naomi had gleaned from the old book, we were ready. We had deciphered the symbols, understanding their purposes and weaknesses. Every warrior was briefed on how to counter the traps and spells that Caden and Leila would undoubtedly use against us. As the morning wore on, the sounds of the enemy approaching became clearer. The clash was inevitable, and as the first wave of Caden’s warriors broke through the trees, we stood our ground. The battle erupted in a storm of clashing steel and snarling wolves. “Elias! Over here!” I shouted, pointing to a group of enemies trying to flank us. Elias nodded, leading a charge that quickly turned the tide in our favor. “Remember the words!” Jasper yelled to th

(Iris)The argument reached a fever pitch, their voices a cacophony of anger and pain that seemed to echo through the entire camp. My head pounded, my heart ached, and I felt on the verge of breaking. Just when I thought I couldn’t take it anymore, a commanding voice cut through the chaos. “Enough!” It was my voice that spoke the word, but it was Alice’s in my mind. All eyes turned to me, and I let her speak through me. “This is not the time for petty grievances. We are on the brink of war, and unity is our only chance of survival.” Jasper and Elias exchanged one last, heated glare, before stepping back, their anger momentarily quelled by Alice’s intervention. I let out a breath I hadn’t realized I was holding, grateful for the respite. I stepped forward, holding the magic stone, surrendering to its power. Its surface shimmered with a faint, otherworldly glow. “I have something important to show you,” she and I said. I placed the stone on the ground and whispered Alice’s

(Iris)I walked down the familiar path, the towering trees feeling like old friends. But this time, the path was crowded with hundreds of warriors, their footsteps creating a steady, rhythmic sound against the forest floor. The air was thick with anticipation, the scent of pine mingling with sweat and metal. Despite the presence of the warriors, I felt a gnawing emptiness inside me. Naomi was still unreachable, and the uncertainty of her fate weighted heavily on my heart. As night fell, the camp was set up, and the warriors huddled around their fires, sharing stories and laughter that felt foreign to me in my current state of mine. I found Elias near a small fire, the flickering flames casting shadows on his face. I hesitated for a moment before approaching him, my heart pounding in my chest. “Elias,” I said softly, drawing his attention. He looked up, his expression unreadable. “Iris,” he replied, motioning for me to sit beside him. We sat in awkward silence for a few minute
Rejected by His Brother, Fated to the Lycan King Chapter 70 The Book and the Walls
(Naomi)I sat on the edge of the narrow bed, my fingers tracing the rough seams of the thin blanket. I had been in this small, dimly lit room for a day now. The walls, adorned with faded, peeling wallpaper, seemed to close in on me, suffocating me with their silence. The only window offered a dismal view of the alley below, where shadows moved and whispered in the night. I replayed the events of the previous evening in my mind. After handing over the necklace Jasper had given me to Alice, I had hoped for a moment of rest. But I knew I hadn’t been subtle enough. The weight of my actions pressed down on my chest like a stone. It wasn’t long after the necklace exchange that Caden and Leila showed up. Their arrival had been swift and silent, their expressions a mix of cold determination and malice. I had tried to act nonchalant, but the flicker of recognition in their eyes told me they had seen through my facade. “You know you can’t keep running like this,” Caden had said softly, h

(Iris)Alice was skin and bones now, but her features were striking, and her eyes were blue like ice. Just like Elias’s. I could see the family resemblance, the same cold, piercing gaze that felt like it could cut through stone. “You are such a lovely-looking girl. So much like your mother,” Alice said softly, her voice almost a whisper, yet it carried a weight that made me shiver. I guessed she could see me too. I stepped closer, feeling a strange pull toward her, as if an invisible thread was drawing me in. Her presence was both comforting and unsettling, a paradox that I couldn’t quite unravel. “Open your eyes and I will see what you see. This is the function of this stone. A very powerful Lycan magic is fused in this. I gave it to your mother for safekeeping in case it fell into the wrong hands.” “Like Caden?” I asked, the name slipping out before I could stop it. Alice nodded, her expression darkening. “Sure. But mainly their grandfather. He is an evil man. Twenty years ago
