The pull… amazing!

"If we do not hurry, then you might have to shift your meeting with the nightfall pack to some other time, my Lord." Aiden, my right-hand man said, and from where I was sitting, waiting for the Alpha of this pack to come back with the photocopies of the signed documents that sealed our business deal, I hummed.

I didn't need to go to the Nightfall pack today if it was too late but for some reason, I could not ignore the pull that I felt to go there today. It had to be today. Why? I had no idea but I was never one to ever not listen to my intuition and if it said to go there today then so be it.

And that was when the words Aiden had called me registered in my head and I looked away from the view of the garden that I had been staring at to where he was standing like a bodyguard, ever so serious.

"Aiden, don't you think that the title you just addressed me might be too serious? I have told you that you can call me by my name. Times without number."

His expression did not change and he looked at me through his sunglasses and inclined his head.

"Calling you by your name when you were just your father's son was acceptable once upon a time but you, my liege, are the Lycan King, therefore calling you by your name would be a very great disrespect."

My smile widened at how serious he was being and I nodded, even though the reminder of who I was and the responsibility that rested on my shoulder did not vanish.

It was one thing to be a Lycan and another completely different thing to be the king of them all.

"You can call me Kaelan anytime you want, Aiden. It's just us two."

The Alpha showed up with the photocopies of the signed document as Aiden was about to answer and after a few more pleasantries which consisted of the man not so subtly hinting at me that he had a daughter available for marriage, we were on our way out of the pack and to our next location.

The Nightfall pack.

Like I always did for every pack that I visited, I asked Aiden for insight into the pack that we were heading to and if there were any latest developments, and as he listed them out to me in a calm tone, I felt that itch again. That pull was telling me that something was waiting for me at this particular pack.

What could it be?

Was it a bad omen?

Would the wise choice be to turn back or continue?

When we arrived at the pack house, a man and a woman were standing together outside, who looked like they were waiting for us and when I came down, the woman audibly sighed, her mouth falling open in shock.

"Does it bother you sometimes? That the only thing people see at first when they meet you is a pretty boy?" Aiden had asked me once and my reply was that it didn't matter what they saw as long as they were wise enough to fear me and not cross any of their boundaries.

It was easier to be known as a pretty king because it helped with relations within the packs.

"King Kaelan, you are welcome to our humble home." The man said and bowed his head slightly. The woman took several seconds to reign in her shock before she realized that she was staring too much and bowed in greeting.

"Thank you for having me. You have a wonderful home from what I have seen on my way here."

"Thank you very much." He puffed out his chest in pride.

"I am Ethan, the Alpha's son. I apologize for my father's inability to come and welcome you himself but he just returned from a trip and is freshening up to join us at the table if you don't mind."

"Not at all. This is my right-hand man, Aiden."

Aiden nodded in greeting and I saw Ethan sizing me up, perhaps wondering if all he had heard about the Lycan King was true, considering how 'pretty' my face was.

"My name is Aurelia, your majesty. It is an honor to meet you." The girl answered with a smile that was meant to seduce, her chest puffing out as if to say, these are my goods, and I knew that if I wanted to bend her over now and fuck her, she would not refuse.

"Your mate?" I asked Ethan but it was Aurelia that answered by quickly shaking her head.

"Come, your majesty, this way." Ethan directed and as we walked down the hallway, I could not help but notice the floors. They were clean but it was obvious that whoever did this had forgotten that allowing the lather to dry on the floor would make the ground look dull.

"The floors look rather dull." I blurted out in a whisper that meant to be something only Aiden would hear and saw Aurelia's face change immediately.

“It is Joye, that weak slave, she could not even clean the floors well. I’d make sure that she is punished.”

Turning to stare at Aurelia at her little outburst, I kept on walking, suddenly feeling bad for whoever was going to be punished for this. Did she say her name was Joye? I was surprised that just her name made me curious about her and it made me feel even more sorry for talking about the ground like that because I knew that she was going to be dealt with thanks to my comment.

The pull started to feel even closer and I picked up my pace like I knew the hallway walking even faster and that was when someone ran into me, spilling coffee on my body and the tray falling to the ground with a thud.

The maid fell to the floor, her head down and body shaking and while I was still staring at her in shock, Ethan snarled.

"You clumsy brat. Is there even anything you can do right? Guards, tie her up and get her flogged. Maybe she might be able to handle simple duties better."

I was already opening my mouth to say that it did not matter but two other servants had appeared, one a boy bowing to greet me before helping me to wipe my clothes while the girl cleaned up the floor.

The servant who had crashed into me started to scream and plead for forgiveness as two guards dragged her away and I started shaking my head immediately, not wanting her to be punished for it.

"You don't have to drag her away. It was a mistake." I said but Ethan shook his head and that was when I saw that Aurelia was still making seductive eyes at me.

"Don't feel bad for her, your majesty. She deserves every bit of punishment that she will get. This is not her first 'mistake' in only a couple of days and if we do not teach her a lesson now, then..."

I did not hear the rest of Ethan's answer because as I looked in the direction of the screaming servant, her eyes finally collided with mine and it felt like my heart stopped working and then started to beat again almost immediately.

I quickly realized what had been pulling me here because now more than ever, I felt like a thread was tied between us and the connection was so strong, I could not help myself.

"Mate" the word came out of me immediately and I started storming after them.

"Let the girl go" I ordered and even though the guards paused, confused, they looked at Ethan for direction.

"I said let her go," I growled as I got to where they had stood frozen and even though they shook in fear, knowing that by logic, I ranked higher in authority than any Alpha or Alpha's son, they still stood their ground.

"I said, let go of her." I roared, pushing both of the guards back with my hands and they flew down the hall, their foreheads bleeding. A crowd had formed and they were murmurs everywhere but I didn't care.

Nothing else mattered but the woman on the ground and I knelt immediately, pulling her close to my chest, my anger immediately reducing from mere contact with her.

Amazing.

"What is happening?" She whispered, looking up at me with a confused glance and I was about to answer, Aurelia snapped.

"For once in your life, Joye, are you not tired of always playing the victim? Look what you made the King have to do rather than own up to the fact that you're just a useless incompetent maid."

Eyes flaming, I growled and Aurelia flinched when I glared at her.

"Don't you ever talk to my mate that way if you want to continue breathing? It is obvious you don’t like the life you are living, and I’d do you the favor of helping you end it.”

Joye's eyes widened in shock and she and Ethan spoke at the same time.

"Mate?"

    Joye "Mate?" I wondered in my head. Surely this man had mistaken me for someone else. Just yesterday I had confirmed that Ethan was my mate, and now this? A lowly omega like myself couldn't probably be able to pull two mates. Or could I?"Stop it!" I yelled at myself mentally. I was head over heels for myself and was losing touch with reality. This was all just one clumsy mistake. Very soon this man will see me for what I'm truly worth, and in no distant time will disregard me, just like everybody else. "Mate? That's impossible." It was Ethan who spoke this time. If I didn't know better, I would have said he was being defensive about this whole thing. Why the hell would he care? He never wanted me to be his mate, so why on earth was he trying to go against this stranger's claims? Although I had no idea who this man was, and my eyes were far too weak to comprehend his looks clearly, I wanted him to take me away from this place. Don't judge me, I understood he was a stranger, and fro

    JoyeThe confusion on the Alpha's face was almost comedic. But I dare not find myself amused else I might meet my end. "What are you saying Kaelan? Can she be mated to two different people at the same time?" He asked in confusion. "I do not know, but I'm certain that she's my mate." Kaelan established once more in confidence."That's nonsense. She was mated to me first, I'm her real mate!" Ethan argued. Never in my life did I ever imagine that Ethan would fight for my custody the way he was doing right now. The old me would have been head over heels for him at this moment. But after the stunt he tried to pull yesterday, I came to finally see him for who he truly was. A disgusting harasser who had no respect for the female gender. "That's enough for now." The Alpha stopped the arguing duo from speaking any further. Then he turned to me and softly he asked. "Do you have anything to say regarding this matter Joye?"I opened my mouth to speak, but another voice interrupted me almost i

    KaelanMy lips curled up in a smile after Joye had finished her sentence. It wasn't like I hadn't expected it, the joy of hearing her say it herself was just superior to that of just knowing. "I guess that settles the argument. She is now my mate and I'd love for everyone to please accord her the respect she deserves." I announced as though they hadn't heard Joye's words at first. I was happy to be blessed with a mate. And a fine one at that. One look at her and I could tell that Joye was a good woman. Under the dirt on her face was a beautiful young lady that needed nothing but love. At first, I had been scared, yesterday was the first full moon of the month. And a mate selection ball was held for unmated wolves to find their partners. Mine was unsuccessful, and it had me worried for a bit. But thank goodness that I came to Nightfall Pack. The moon goddess was on my side, and she led me straight to my mate. I was grateful to the moon goddess for her guidance. And the same time gr

  • Rejected, then Claimed by the Lycan King.   A new start, a new home.

    JoyeWe both stood in silence while I tried to control the overwhelming emotions building up inside of me. So this was happening. An ordinary slave like me was being mated to the Lycan king. Never in my life did I think one of my daydreams would ever become reality. As we stood waiting for Kaelan's return, I decided to make use of the opportunity and ask his right-hand man some basic questions about the man who is my mate. The two of them seemed to be friends rather than just work companions. If anybody knew anything about Kaelan, it had to be this man. Deciding to speak to Aiden was an easy task, doing the talking was the difficult part. I had no idea how to start my sentence, or how to even pull his attention towards me. He seemed so serious and formal about everything, that I feared he might yell at me if I approached him with the wrong tone and words. Unlike Kaelan, the air around him was denser. He was always on guard at all times, and it made him appear strict despite his all

    KaelanI watched as her eyes widened expressively at the sight of the mansion before her. I didn't blame her, not only was it twice the size of the Nightfall Pack fortress, but it was also far more luxurious than her average house. I smiled mildly at her expression before leading her into the main building. Upon arrival, the guards and servants were already situated at their designated posts and were making efforts to make everything about today perfect.I wasn't cruel or anything, one might think differently because of the stiff atmosphere. I just liked to make sure that my dominance was established. Unlike ordinary werewolves who had a grading system that allowed the masses to judge their strengths, Lycans didn't care about that. There was nothing like Alpha, omega, beta, or whatever. The Lycan king was the pinnacle of authority, and everybody else was equal. If I didn't exert my dominance and show off my strength as the prime being, one crazed individual might try to challenge me

    JoyeThe golden rays of the sun found their way into my room, and as though recognizing that this was a new chapter of my life, it smiled warmly upon my face. As I rose from my bed, and as I took a conscious breath, I realized that something was different. The air was different. It was lighter and with every breeze, a faint smell of jasmine, encompassed by a stronger scent which I identified to be rose filled the air.It was as though I was seated in a sea of flowers. My spirit felt calm as the delicious smell wafted through my nostrils. Without much convincing, I could tell that today was a good day, the beginning of a new chapter in my life. As I got down from my bed, a knock came to the door. I was almost certain it was Kaelan, but that wasn't the case. Two maids had immediately walked in as though they have been watching me all night, and waiting for me to finally wake."Good morning, my lady." The both of them greeted with a slight bow. I was frozen in shock, surely they weren'

  • Rejected, then Claimed by the Lycan King.   Progress, at least.

    KaelanThe meeting with the Elders had gone almost exactly as I had predicted. It had been about my mate. They had requested an audience with her at that moment, but I declined their request. Joye had just arrived and she needed to rest herself. I wasn't ready to introduce her to the problems of the elders just yet. I had no idea how the Elders got to know about Joye, but I wasn't worried about it just yet. They said they needed to be familiar with their potential queen, but I could tell they had ulterior motives behind their decisions. Whatever they were planning to do, it won't work. And that was why I needed us to get married as soon as possible. Being mates wasn't going to be enough to thwart the plans of the Elders, but marriage might just be enough. With Joye as my wife, I will be able to decline any interaction or schemes they might want to throw at us. Because now she was no longer just my mate, but now part of the family too.I had wanted to bring up the wedding conversatio

  • Rejected, then Claimed by the Lycan King.   My choice

    JoyeI didn't sleep immediately after Kaelan left, I stayed awake battling with my thoughts, trying to make sense of everything that was going on, and how fast it was happening. Mating ceremonies, weddings, sharing rooms. It was becoming a little bit too much for me to assimilate all at once. I mean, I had just met Kaelan a few days ago. Not to mention that I wasn't fully attached to him as a mate. I did feel a pull towards him, but it was a far cry compared to what I felt for Ethan. Slowly, Kaelan was winning me over, but I couldn't neglect the feeling of my wolf. She was adamant and still insisted that Ethan was her mate and not Kaelan. My inner mind had not been at rest since we were claimed by Kaelan. "But you feel a mate bond with him right?" I asked my wolf just to be absolute with everything. "Yes, a weak one," Rainbow replied curtly. I could sense her suppressed disappointment and anger, and I couldn't blame her. Our life took a swift turn, and we were currently caught in it

    Joye A month had passed since the events of the red moon, and so far everything has been peaceful. Damages around the Kingdom were being repaired, and the Lycans and my people have reached a mutual agreement to not indulge themselves in war again. As the leader of our respective clans, Kaelan and I had been the ones who reached this agreement, and the others had complied. Both clans suffered casualties, and nobody wanted to feel the pain of losing a loved one ever again.A memorial was held for the soldiers that had fallen in battle, and their families were compensated. Although the destruction this time was mild, we all knew that everybody wouldn't survive. It was a tough problem to deal with, but thankfully we were able to pull through and stop a century old curse from wiping out good people.After the night was over, the elders had all visited me to apologize. I never really cared about them, but I still accepted their apology. We weren't friends, and I certainly wouldn't involve

    JoyeIt was just as I had expected, not everyone of the infiltrators had listened to the man from earlier who I had learnt his name to be Luke. Out of the six infiltrators, two had remained adamant and continued to cause chaos in the mansion. As the only person who stood a chance against them, I had to intervene. Once again I had left regaining my strength to protect everyone in the castle, and fighting two people at once was no easy task. The little strength I managed to regain I had lost once more and time was quickly running out. There was barely thirty minutes before everything ended. If I failed to break the curse within these last minutes, then everything and the deaths would be for nothing. My strength wasn't fully restored yet, but I couldn't waste anymore time. Aiden and the others were waiting for me, I couldn't keep them waiting any longer than this. I got down from where I was, and took a deep breath, it was now or never, I couldn't risk failing a second time. "Let me

  • Rejected, then Claimed by the Lycan King.   My Faith in them.

    Kaelan"She failed?" I gasped just before I decapitated another adversary. A man from Aiden's unit had just informed me that Joye's first attempt to break the curse had not been successful, and she was yet to return to try a second time. We had barely thirty minutes until the red moon falls, and if she didn’t manage to break the curse within those thirty minutes, then we were doomed to repeat this experience in the next two years. I was already back in my human form due to exhaustion, and I was losing more strength as I fought off the unending horde of opponents. Although we had managed to keep casualties on our side to the minimum, most of us were already out of energy. This last thirty minutes would be the determining factor of this entire situation."I'm sure she's going to make it." I voiced out to the messenger's hearing. "Tell Aiden and the rest to keep guarding the place, I trust Joye, she won't back away so easily." I ordered while holding off the crowd from approaching the m

    Joye I had no idea who sounded the alarm, but I recognized that scream very well. It was Olivia's voice, I had no idea what had happened to her, but I was certain she wasn't doing well. "You need to rest, she's not important. You need to conserve your energy in order to face Azira." Rainbow advised. She had read my thoughts. I wanted to rush out to save Olivia, but Rainbow had reminded me just how much I hated Olivia. Wasting my energy on people like her wasn't worth it.Countless times Olivia had shown just how much she despised me, and I still had no idea why she hates me so much. I wanted to blame it on the fact that I was different from her and the rest, but I knew her hatred went beyond just being different. "She's Kaelan's sister, I have to help her." I said, but Rainbow wasn't on board with that decision."Save her then what? Waste your recovered energy on another fight? If you leave this room you're going to run into an enemy. And once you run into one, you'll be forced to

    JoyeI sat on the podium that tormented my every nightmare, the same podium where Azira had been burnt. I could feel her energy all around me, but I chose to focus on completing my task rather than focusing on a dead woman. She had caused pain for these people, and needed to be stopped at all cost. The red moon had already risen, all I needed to do was end the curse on time and help the Lycans regain their strength. This was a do or die situation, failure was not an option.I savored the flow of power in me. The pure energy that flowed from the air and nature around me. This was purification, the air around me was being purified and soon the kingdom will be as well. This curse has harmed a lot of innocent families and stolen happiness away from them. I was going to restore the peace these people once had and stop this curse once and for all. I was almost at the climax of power when suddenly the flow stopped, my body suddenly began feeling unwell and for some reason. I felt pow

    KaelanEvery passing second felt like a torturous hour to me. Only twenty four more hours were left until the red moon fully rose in the sky. In a few hours my people would be torn apart by the demons that hunt us every two years. Joye was our only hope, if she failed to break the curse tomorrow night, then we were all doomed. A handful of the enemies had already made it past the borders, and although we had managed to capture a lot of them, there were still some that were in the kingdom waiting for the right time to strike. It didn't matter how much we fortified our borders, the enemies always found their way in. It was something that was beyond our control, but that didn't mean that we would just leave the gates open for them to jump inside all willy nilly. The fear in my heart was persistent, but I chose to have faith and trust in Joye. Even though everybody doubted her, my trust in her remained unwavering. She had trained from morning till night, the least I could do to acknowle

    KaelanThe day was calm, and although everybody seemed calm and happy, I could tell they were all horrified as the seconds passed. The red moon was approaching fast, and everybody was on high alert for the few intruders that had been spotted randomly around the kingdom. Although we had managed to get our hands on some of the intruders, they committed suicide immediately to keep themselves from leaking any information. James had tried using magic to extract information from them, but that too had not worked. These men were prepared more than ever, and I feared that things might actually be worse this time around. Speaking of James, I had been trying to get close to him and build some level of trust between us, but the man gave me no chances. He was Joye's father, and as her husband I wanted to know more about my wife's father and their people. However, James had the complete opposite in mind.He really wanted nothing to do with me and he made that abundantly clear every single time I

    JoyeAlthough Kaelan seemed a bit hurt by my words,he didn't exactly take it to heart. He knew that what I was saying was the truth. His people did kill my people because of one person, and he knew that it was wrong in all sense. "You have to come with me, Joye. They're going to come for you if you keep staying here." The stranger maintained. He had not given up on taking me out of this place, and the both of us had been so engrossed in the argument that I had forgotten to ask for his name. I only realized that I didn't know his name after he had called mine out without thinking about it. "I don't even know your name. What should I call you?" I asked because it definitely wouldn't be father. Even if he was my father, he was going to do a lot more than this before I can acknowledge him. He might be trying to save my life now, but I could have died a thousand times before in Nightfall Pack where he left my mother and I to suffer. "It's James." He answered curtly. "James..." I drawl

    Joye I woke up with a slight headache, it was already past noon, and Kaelan wasn't in the bed anymore. I remembered passing out near him after countless hours of healing him. Somehow I couldn't help but feel that everything was my fault. If I had listened to what he said, and hadn't let my pride and anger get in the way, perhaps I might have saved him before things got critical. I got down from the bed, my head still spinning and the energy in my body at its minimum. I had overexerted myself to the point of losing consciousness, I didn't particularly expect to wake up full of energy. I managed to saunter into the bathroom to run cold water over my throbbing head. I felt a bit relieved and happy at the same time. The fact that Kaelan wasn't on that bed meant that he had regained consciousness and had left to carry out his duties. I wasn't mad that he wasn't by my side when I woke, I was far too focused on the fact that he was okay now to get angry. I called for Mary and demanded fo
