SAVED BY THE LYCAN KING Chapter 47
HELEN'S POVI hurried down the palace hallway, heading for Gina's chambers. My heart raced in my chest as I moved. I was a little scared. I knew how late I was. If there was anything Gina hated, it was being late whenever she called. It was never a good thing with her. The very thought of her icy stare made me gulp in fear. The mere fact that she had summoned me so early already hinted at the kind of mood she was in, and arriving late would only make things worse.Finally, I reached the door to her room. I paused for a moment, taking a deep breath to prepare myself. I needed to be calm and composed. But no matter how many times I told myself that, the fear still gripped me tightly. She was the only one who knew.... Gina was the only one who knew my deepest secret and that knowledge gave her power over me. I knocked gently, then pushed open the door.“About time,” Gina snapped as soon as I entered. She was seated by her vanity, brushing her hair. “I’m so sorry, Gina. There was an i

HELEN'S POVI stood outside Gina’s door. My heart was pounding so loudly that I was sure she could hear it through the wood. I knew what was coming. There was no escaping it now. I had failed her, and Gina wasn’t the type to let failure slide—not without consequences.Taking a deep breath, I knocked on the door. There was a pause, just long enough for me to reconsider everything that had brought me to this moment. But before I could, her voice called out. "Enter" I pushed the door open slowly, stepping into her room. Gina stood by the window with her back to me. Her posture was rigid and I knew she was annoyed. I could basically see her body tremble a little. My heart dropped to the pit of my stomach.“You wanted to see me, Gina?” I asked, my voice trembling slightly. She didn’t turn around. “You messed up, Helen. I trusted you with a simple task, and you failed.”“I—I’m sorry, Gina,” I said, “I did exactly as you instructed. I gave Elise the drink, just as you asked, but—”“But wh

ELISE'S POVI keep my back pressed against the rough stone wall, mobing along the small ledge that's over the darkness down. My heart hammers in my chest as I stare at how tall the height of the cliff is. Below me, the world seems to fall away into nothingness. I close my eyes, forcing myself not to look at it or think of it too much. Looking at it alone makes me dizzy. Every breath I take feels heavy. Why did Gina send me here? The question has been ringing in my mind since the moment she ordered me to retrieve this flower.It was a simple flower, she had said, but one that only grew in a cave on the edge of this mountain. I had dared to ask why the guards couldn’t go instead, and she had smiled that wicked smile of hers, the one that never reached her eyes. "Because"she’d said" I need someone with a light touch, someone I can trust to not crush the delicate petals. And I trust you, Elise."But I knew better. This was no task of trust. This was another one of her impossible demands

ELISE'S POVThe water was cold—colder than I could have imagined. It moved into every part of me, numbing my skin, my muscles, my bones, until it felt like I was nothing more than a block of ice. The shock of hitting the water had knocked the breath out of me, and now, as I sank deeper and deeper, the pressure of the water pressed down on my chest. My lungs screamed for air, but all I could manage were weak gulps. I tried to swim, to kick, to push myself back to the surface, but the pain was too much. It spread through my entire body. The ache I felt made it impossible to move. My limbs felt like they were filled with lead, very heavy. It hurt to even think about trying.As I sank deeper into the water, my mind became filled with so many thoughts. My life flashed before my eyes, like a a film reel of memories—moments I wished I could relive, choices I wished I could change. If I had just spoken up more, if I had just been braver, maybe things would have been different. Maybe I woul

FERRIS' POVI paced back and forth in my study, letting my thoughts get the best of me. I couldn't get her out of my head—Elise. I couldn't stop thinking about that night. Ever since then, I've been thinking about what could have gone wrong for her to come see me by that time of the night. I had, a need to protect her, to keep her safe from the dangers in Jackson's house. I could still see the sadness and blankness in her eyes, the way she stared into space like she was having an out of body experience. She looked so sad... So broken. Damn it, I should’ve asked her more. I should have pressed her until she told me what was really going on. Maybe with that, I would have been able to help her. My fists clenched at my sides I knew Jackson well enough to be certain that his home was not safe for Elise. And yet, she lived there, trapped in a situation that I was slowly realizing might be worse than I initially thought. I had tried to push these feelings down, tried to convince myself

FERRIS' POVBy the time I got to the place I assumed Elise was, the storm was in full swing. The rain was heavy and so was the wind. On my way here, I shifted into my Lucan form. The ground was slick beneath my paws, making every step slippery, but I refused to slow down. Elise was out here somewhere, and I wasn’t going to let anything stand in my way.I had shifted into my Lycan form as soon as I left Jackson’s house, hoping that my heightened senses would make it easier to track her. But the storm was making it nearly impossible. Her scent was faint, mingling with the wet earth and the rain. The rain was washing away any traces she might have left behind. I couldn't navigate the place quite well. “Damn it, Elise, where are you?” I growled to myself. This was Gina's fault. What the hell was her problem? Why couldn't she send one of the guards to get the flower? Why did it have to be Elise? The image of Elise that night night, the way she looked so broken and lost, haunted me. She

JACKSON'S POV I stared outside the window as I was driven back to the palace. My inspection of the northern borders had taken longer than expected, and I was more than a little tired. But the pack's safety came first, always. As I approached the entrance of the palace, the guards bowed in respect and so did the other workers. I made my way to the boardroom and saw the lights still on. Good. Jason and Kevin, my head guard were already waiting. There were a few things we needed to discuss, and it was better to get them out of the way tonight than let them wait till morning.I pushed open the door and both men looked up from the papers scattered across the table. Jason leaned back in his chair, rubbing his temples like he had a headache. Kevin, sat with his arms crossed, his usual stern expression in place. He never really let down his guard, not even in casual moments."Alpha," they greeted in unison, standing and bowing their heads as I entered."Sit," I said, waving them back down a

ELISE'S POVI ran. I ran as fast as my legs would carry me, but no matter how far I went, the darkness chased me, getting closer with every step. The forest around me was dark and the trees twisted in front, making it hard to run fast. My lungs burned with each breath and my heart pounded in my chest yet the shadows behind me only grew darkerI didn’t know what I was running from, only that if I stopped, it would grab me. The ground beneath me was uneven, roots and stones tripping me up, but I couldn’t stop. I couldn’t—Suddenly, the ground gave way, and I was falling down a huge hole. A silent scream tore out of my mouth. My arms flailed, grasping at nothing. My body felt weightless and helpless. I kept falling and falling, the darkness swallowing me whole.There was no end. My screams echoed back at me, distorted and twisted.And then, just as suddenly as it began, I hit the ground with a thud. The impact knocked the wind out of me, filling my body with pain, but it wasn’t the pain
