Brynlee’ POVI swallowed hard at the sight I just saw or did I imagine it? It was the most horrifying pair of eyes ever and something about it didn't seem right. It wasn't a human eye, it can never be and that I am sure of.My hands were shaking non-stop as I stared right back at it. Just when I thought the apparition would come out, there were loud sounds of footsteps headed towards the room. Mysteriously, the apparition has apparently vanished. I squinted my face and then I frowned, deeply. I tried looking around again but it was obvious no one was there. I was about to get out of the bed when the door was flung open and Maverick came inside looking worried."Buttercup, are you okay? Are you hurt somewhere?" He asked, moving swiftly to my side. I looked around but there was no sign that someone had been in this room with me. Maybe, I was mistaken."I… I saw.. saw something scary. Eyes… they looked scary and different…" I stuttered, trying to explain. I know I was sounding superstit
My body shivered non-stop as he bit my earlobe. I rubbed my body against his own, earning a groan from him. Although I wanted to act all pro, this feeling was still new to me.Yes, I might have seen one or two porn videos or maybe three but I had never experienced it. The feeling was heavenly and I wished it wouldn't stop so I clung to him even tighter, my tits hardening against his chest.I was caught off guard when he grabbed my mouth and kissed the shit out of it. Damn! My legs were about to give way. He must have observed it because he lifted me up and placed me gently on the bed."You are beautiful, Brynlee," he whispered, his hands running all over my body."I…""Shhh! Just enjoy the moment, buttercup," he said.But I wanted to be sure," Those… those other women, are you still… going to have other women?"" Never! Not even one, buttercup. Trust me. I love you more than anything in the whole world," he assured me, his hands roaming all over my body. I wanted to speak but the emot
Those eyes looked dangerous and I could feel it down my heart that whoever that man was, he doesn't like me one bit. Furthermore, he looked dangerous. I wondered why he had such a look on his face. I bit hard on my lips, my hands gripping Maverick tighter than before.He must have noticed my uneasiness because he gave me a reassuring smile that seem to calm my nerves. Deep down something tells me the man was up to no good but who was he?"It's been many years, nephew," the man said, his voice strict and powerful. I could see Maverick trying to control himself. If the man called him nephew, it means he was Maverick's uncle, right? But why does it look like there was tension between the two of them?"And I am surprised you care to visit the castle today of all days? Suspicious, right? Your birdies must be very efficient in relaying messages," Maverick said, smirking. After replying to his uncle, he gently pulled out a chair for me to sit on. I was grateful because the tension in the
Why was Maverick's uncle looking so creepy? Was he the creature I saw just now? What exactly was he planning to do?"Uncle Berth?" I asked, my guard heightened up against him."What do we have here? The human mated to the fearsome lycan king?" He replied, mockingly.I was angry at the way he addressed me but even angrier when he mentioned that my sweet Maverick was fearsome."Oh! It seems you don't agree with me? You were scared just now, weren't you?" He asked, looking at me disgustingly."I was scared because you decided to be creepy!" I retorted, wishing I could roll my eyes. But he was Maverick's uncle, he deserved some respect."Creepy? We all are creepy, if that's what humans calls us. Your so-called mate is the creepiest, buttercup," he mocked again, his tone filled with hatred."You have no right to call me that, Uncle Berth," I said, controlling my anger. " Oops! Sorry, it's just funny how someone like him could call you that. Don't you find it weird?" He asked, walking clos
Maverick PovI was very angry at the way my uncle spoke to my mate. Was he undermining my authority? How dare he question my decision in the presence of others? Was I too lenient towards him? I was only being considerate because he was my father's brother and ever since my father went missing, he was the only father figure. Not that he was a good father figure. I know of all his plots and ploys. But I was looking for the right time and the perfect evidence to trap him. I can tolerate every other thing but not his attitude toward my mate. That's a no-go area even for him. I suppressed my annoyance so as not to scare my mate. I can see she was trying so hard to adapt to the new environment and although she was trying so hard to act brave, I don't want her to get scared seeing my scary side. I don't want her hating me. So I decided to stay and watch my mate more before I left for the training ground. I already sent a message to Loren and the warriors through the general mindlink abou
I got a mindlink that a rogue was trying to escape from the dungeon. Why would all this happen when I wanted to stay out of violence for the time being because of my mate? "Another problem, your majesty. The rogue killed five of the guards," the person continued.I stopped moving for a second. If there was any rogue that could kill five of my guards while escaping, it must be one of Alpha Jasper's men that I captured recently.Alpha Jasper wasn't a rogue king but he trains rogues into deadly weapons to fight his battles. The last encounter was when more than a dozen broke into my border and killed three of my men. In anger, I had gone there and slaughtered them all except for the leader who I kept to get information."Get him to the silent room and make sure the instruments are ready," I instructed, clenching my jaw. I bit down my anger to its limit so as not to affect the people that are few distances away from me."I will dispatch the training for today," Loren said, sending a mind
Brynlee Pov"You… got hurt? There… there is blood on your hands" Those were the words that I could squeeze from my mouth after seeing the blood on his hands. I was afraid that my thoughts might be true. I was even more frightened that maybe it wasn't true and my mate was in danger.At first, I struggled with the fact that his uncle was right. He was right that I was not fit to be here. Although Maverick had explained a lot about their kind to me, it was hard to process the fact that they were like the creature I saw not long ago.Deep down, I wasn't afraid of him, rather I wanted to see him in his true form. I don't wish to be left in the dark. I wanted him to show me the truth he had been telling me since I met him.I want to see the lycan who married me. Was that possible?I waited for him to explain the blood in his hands but I rather saw a complicated look on his face. He was looking away, his eyes locked elsewhere from mine. That was the first time I have seen him struggle to an
Brynlee PovI was glad that Maverick came and the uncle was gone. But I was still confused about the whole scenario. I was wondering if I was having a daydream while standing. How could such a creature exist? And why does it look so damn scary?Another thing that baffled me was the fact that the creature and Uncle Berth to vanish just like that. That was also impossible! It wasn't a movie. Although I didn't want to be influenced by his uncle's words, I was determined to know who these people really were. Who exactly were the lycans? What is their true form and are they as scary as the creature I saw? Was I in danger? These thoughts haunted my mind as I followed Maverick to the room. I could feel his concern for me but then and my eyes caught the bloodstains in his hands or claws. I remembered the creature I saw earlier. It has claws too and the most dangerous pair of eyes. Were they all like that? Although I was frightened, I ask him about the blood and he explained to me but I want
Little Elsie was sent to the royal physician who conducted a test and said she was fine.Willow on the other hand wasn't having a good time."It will take her months to heal," The physician said."Mother." Brynlee sighed then kisses her forehead. The unconscious Willow was taken away and Maverick pulled her into a hug."Everything will be fine from now on," Maverick smiled then kissed her lightly on her lips.Brynlee nodded then stared at the place he was stabbed. He noticed how worried he was and he sighed."I'll be fine in a few days. I have to leave now. The palace needs some rumination." maverick annouced.Brynlee nodded and watched as he left. Days went by after that and the new palace for the Solar pack was in place.Two huge status stood magnificently at the entrance to the palace and it won't take someone a second to see that it was the Luna and her Alpha."Sir there's a report,"Loren walked inside the study room of Maverick who was going through some files.Maverick stared at
"You came?" He asked with heavy breath, staring at her as she still struggled in cutting the rope.She paused and turned towards him, staring at him with a smile on her face before she placed her palm on his face and then replied, "Of course I did. You would do same for me."He smiled at her. The pains he had felt around his hands had already ceased as soon as he could feel her hands around his skin, and for a second, his love for the lady had rekindled ten times more than what he had already felt for her.But all of the emotions were cut off just as soon as his eyes had sighted the movement of a rogue wolf approaching them at a very intense speed."You might want to be a bit faster in cutting off this rope!" He said. "Why?" She asked"Because another is coming in our direction," he said. Her eyes immediately turned backwards as she could also sight the rogue wolf running towards them both, and the tension within her spirit had immediately catapulted."Shit!" She groaned as she kept
AUTHOR'S POVHeavy breath accompanied every hasty step she took round the building. Her eyes moved round the entire building, her face beaded with sweat drops as she stood with her hands on waist, seeming lost in the thoughts of something uncertain."My lady..." A voice sounded from behind her which interrupted her train of thoughts, causing her to turn backwards in view of who had called towards her."He's not here! He's not anywhere in the building" Loren said. His eyes were squeezed at the sight of her facial reaction. Her face was squeezed, as though tears were about to fall down her face.She turned back and forth, already sniffling her nostrils with the hasty breath increasing as the seconds passed by. Her hands were on her head, her fingers rushing through her already scattered hair in thoughts of what next she could do.She searched for Maverick as soon as the strangest feeling pierced through her heart. She had started her search, but when she had seen the impossibility of he
As soon as Alexandria and Regina was taken away, hurried footsteps were heard coming towards the place they were. It was Loren and Tamara who heard about another poisoning episode."I heard about what happened. Are you both fine?" Loren rushed inside the mansion along with Tamara.Brynlee stopped with what she was doing then stared at the couple who just came in."Loren? Tamara?" Her eyes widened in surprise. Tamara stared at her, surprised then stared at Maverick who gave a short nod."You finally remember us?" She asked with watery eyes. Brynlee nodded frantically and they both held each other screaming."I thank God that everything is fine now," Loren walked towards Maverick. He took a seat on one of the sofas while he watches the ladies.He was about to say something but Maverick phone started ringing. He stared at the buzzing phone and the table."Hello?" Maverick coldly asked. He knew who the caller was and he wondered why he called?"Are you free?" Uncle Berth's voice sounded f
Author's POV"Is it because it's poison?" Willow asked and Alexandra's brows creased together."How dare you give an accusation without proof?" Alexandra thundered."You know what I hate the most? It's dramas. It's either you give her that pie like she requested or get your head on a platter for being a traitor," Brynlee coldly replied."Mr Maverick! Will you let her talk to your guest like that?!" Alexandra accused.Maverick stared at her then back at the pie. If the woman knew how much he pampers his mate, she wouldn't dare ask him that. But for the fact that they are trying to deceive Alexandra, he just had to play along. "Is it truly poisoned?" He calmly asked. Alexandra's eyes widened in disbelief. Why was Maverick suddenly believing them? Didn't he ask her over here because he wanted her help? Wasn't that why he always danced to her tune? "You don't believe me?" She feigned a sad look on her face. Maverick simply stared at her without saying a word. Alexandra's hands tightene
Willow's POVThere were so many words I wished to tell my daughter. I wish I could tell her how sorry I was to leave her alone all these years. I wish I could stop all the maltreatment she received from Alexandra after the death of her father.But I just couldn't. I didn't want to make her life more complicated than it already was. How could I tell her that she was at risk then because I broke the rule of witches?Back then, powerful witches of the royal bloodline were forbidden to mate with humans. That was how we were taught, not until I met Brynlee's father. He was so perfect that I fell in love with him.But of course, I knew the implications of what I was getting myself into. To protect him, I wanted to denounce my witchy powers. I was determined to be ordinary so I could be with Brynlee's father.I never knew those were just my wishful thinking. The man I fell in love with lied to me. I found out another woman was pregnant with his child. Filled with fury, I wanted to destroy h
Third Person POVUncle's Beth's gaze sharpened as he stared at the shadow standing at the window.There was a moment of silence before it slowly disappeared from there. "What's that?" He muttered as he quickly ran towards the window to check but no one was there. He sighed then turned towards the dressing table. He picked the bottle with serenity and placed it gently inside the drawer."Get ready to meet your demise," He chuckled lightly as he climbed the bed and slept soundly.Hours passed in the blink of an eye and it was morning already. A maid walked towards his room and knocked gently."Sir, breakfast is ready," The maid said but he simply ignored her. He wore his suit and walked past her."Tell the driver to get the car ready. I'll be there in 4 minutes," He said to the maid as he made himself a coffee. The maid nodded and dash off to relay the order. Few minutes after that, he was on his way to Maverick's mansion. It didn't take long before the car pulled into the mansion."W
Alexandra's POV"How long have you been here, willow?" I asked the frightened woman before me."It hasn't been long, ma'am. I only came here to inform you that I have to head back home now. I do not have any money with me and I don't think I can stay in this place stranded," She replied.My brows creased at her words but then she said right. She can't spend all her time here without earning from it.She needs money to survive and I don't expect to keep her around me. There are a lot of maids in here who can meet all my needs but then… I do not think they are worthy of my trust.So that's where she comes useful."Ma'am," She called out."Yes, you can stay," I gasp out then sighed."I can't stay here, ma'am. I need money," She argued."Money Is not the problem. I will pay you while you do some minor jobs for me. Let's just take it as our usual routine before I came here. I can't trust anyone in this palace and I've known you for a month now. Apart from Regina, you are the next person I
Alexandra's POV"We are here," Loren said as we entered the grandiloquent building. I couldn't help but gasp at how beautiful and luxurious it was.Is this really the place where my 'daughter' has been living? My eyes rolled at this but I still made sure to feast my eyes with everything I could see. I watched as the maids quickly take our luggages towards the Mansion and they all look so happy with their work "Woow," I gasped in disbelief. Don't tell me they are enjoying the luxury here?Hell yeah! It's better I stick to the deal and stay here forever but… I do not think the clean way is good."Ma'am, is there anything I can do? I mean, you asked me to come over leaving the house empty," a disturbing voice interrupted my inner happiness.I turned to stare dagger at the haggard looking maid I brought with me. If not that she was very good at her job and somehow, I just can't chase her too."What's that name of yours again?" I asked, making sure to sound demeaning."Willow" She said
