Jessica knew she was close to death. She could taste it. She felt faint, even though she was left beaten and bloodied on the forest floor, some part of her still hoped that Cory would come and save her. He was her mate — well her ex-mate. Didn't he care about their bond at all?

Her stomach gave out when she remembered her poor, unborn child. What did her innocent pup do to deserve such harsh treatment?

It felt like her innards were being replaced by some kind of black hole. Then nausea crept from her abdomen to her head and even though she knew when she closed her eyes that would be it for her and her baby. A smile tried to form on her lips as she thought about seeing her parents again in the afterlife. She tried her best to stay awake, but Luna Magda was right. She was just a weak omega who wouldn't last long out in the real world alone.

A lone tear slipped from the side of her left eye as the world went black. Jessica fell into a deep unawareness.

    King Kanyon stooped down next to the young girl, dressed in a bright midnight blue gown. Even though it was covered in mud and blood, his eyes admired the intricate designs. The stitching and embroidery down at the hem could only be found in the Blackwood kingdom, the place where his late wife, Princess Eleanor, was from. He shelved his curiosity about the dress and inspected the girl for any injuries. The King had seen a lot of horror stories in his life, but this took the cake. He couldn't cipher how one tiny girl could have so many old and new wounds. When the King lifted her gown to inspect her thighs, Cameron had to turn his head away. There were burn marks and scars everywhere. “Who did this to her?” He grunted. “That person must be pure evil,” Cameron stated. He knew by the way the King was clenching his jaw that he wanted to meet this person and give them a taste of their own medicine. The King sighed and stated, “It doesn't

    "Pregnant!" King Kanyon raved. “You're suggesting that someone hurt this girl and left her for dead while she is carrying a child? You wait until I find out who did this. They are dead. I don't care if they beg for mercy. I'm going to rip their spines through their throats." The King's rage was scaring the doctor and nurses. He quickly calmed down when he smelt their fears. "Forgive me my outburst," he apologized. "Is there anything else I should know?" "No, your majesty," doctor Anna answered. "For now, we will just monitor her and make sure she remains stabilized. We've given her pain and inflammation medications that are safe for pregnant women. Now we're going to bandage her broken bones.""OK. I'm going to step out for a while. But I will come right back. If anything changes before that. Come get me immediately.""Yes, your majesty," doctor Anna bowed. "Very well then," he sighed as he stepped out of the room and headed for the waiting area

    Over the next few days, Jessica showed no signs of change. The King barely left her side. He had his meals in her room and slept on a couch situated in the corner. He even used the bathroom that was in her hospital room. The only time he left was when he took his beast out for a run. In the late hours of the night, his beast stirred him awake. Sinbad couldn't sleep. He was worried about Jessica. "Hey, Sin. What's wrong? Why are you pacing around up there? I'm trying to sleep." Kanyon rubbed his eyes and sat up on the couch. "I'm worried about the girl, plus I've been waiting for you to bring up an important factor that you've been avoiding."Kanyon took a deep breath, stood up, and made his way to the table. He picked up the pitcher and poured water into a cup. He gulped it down and said, "I don't know what you're talking about.""Don't play with me, Kan. I know you detected it when we first found her and I know you can smell it now,"

    As another month ticked away, Jessica remained in her coma. Kanyon was growing more restless by the day. All he wanted was for her to open her eyes. "Why isn't she waking up?" He asked doctor Anna. "I don't know, your majesty. I really don't know," she sighed. "At least she's breathing on her own now.""Do you think she's fit enough for me to take her back to my kingdom?" "If you take a plane rather than travel on foot, I don't see why not. You'll be there in a couple of days. I'll even fly with you to monitor the girl.""Thank you, Anna. I appreciate it," he nodded. "I'll arrange things with Alpha Daniel. I know he has a private jet that he'll let me use."*******Five days later, the plane landed in the kingdom of Lycania. Scores of lycans were lined up waiting for their king's arrival. Word of the comatose omega spread like wildfire. People wanted to catch a glimpse of the girl who kept their king away from them fo

    Kanyon stayed by Jessica's bedside, holding her hand while Doctor Peterson delivered the awful news to him. "Your majesty. We cannot find the baby's heartbeat on any of the monitors." The doctor gave the King a few moments to catch his breath. "Are you saying what I think you're saying?" "Yes King Kanyon. The young lady has suffered a miscarriage." The doctor bowed his head, not only in respect for his king, but also because the anger and sadness radiating from King Kanyon was choking him from the inside out. "How will we treat this? She's still in a coma." Kanyon's chest ached. He hated death. Death took everything important away from him. Now he worried for the mother. Would she be the one to die next? "We need to conduct a c-section to extract the fetus," the doctor explained. "I just hope the she-wolf's body is strong enough to survive the surgery." "This is all too much for one girl to endure," Kanyon snapped. "Is it possible for us to wait and see if she'll wake up before

    Days passed, and the orange leaves began to fall leaving tree branches cold and naked. Winter was here, and it wanted everyone to know it. The biting chill outside was so much so that it was seeping through the walls and any cracks it could find. Jessica's eyes blinked open, yet the glaring light caused her to immediately close them once more. Her eyeballs felt dry, like she had swum with them open in a desert of sand. On top of all of this, her head and muscles hurt. To her, it seemed as if years had gone by without using her limbs. She smacked her lips together, trying to soothe her parched throat with her saliva. She was so thirsty, her lips felt like sandpaper. She willed her eyes open and took in the details of the room. Everything was unfamiliar. Where am I? She pondered internally. She noticed tubes protruding from her arms and strings connecting her chest to a machine. She ripped them off. Jessica's skin went ashen. She found herself in a panic. She raised her hand to

    For days, King Kanyon had been running in beast form, killing every animal he saw in sight. He was so angry with the Moon Goddess for taking yet another thing that he had come to love away from him. He wanted the pup to survive so he could grow up and call him papa, and he wanted to train him so that maybe one day he could take over the throne. 'I think we should go back now,' Sinbad stated in a worrying tone. 'We've been at it for almost a week. I'm tired and you need a shower.' Kanyon said nothing as Sinbad slowed down. He let his beast take him back to the castle. He sneaked into his bedroom without raising any alarms and then enjoyed a lengthy, hot shower. While he was slipping a T-shirt over his head, Cameron's voice thundered in his brain. 'Kanyon, where are you?' 'No need to shout! I'm at the castle. What is it?' Kanyon answered, frustrated. He wanted to sleep off his journey and then deal with problems the next day. 'It's the girl, she's awake!' Kanyon's face wen

    Jessica pressed her bare feet into the dirt at her son's grave. She felt numb all over. She was unable to cry, move, or even blink. This man explained to her that her son had already died before entering the world. She blamed herself. She was too weak. A low bred omega. She was nothing but scum on this earth. Had she been stronger or persevered a bit longer, her son would still be alive today. She needed to see him, to hold him in her arms. 'King Kanyon,' doctor Peterson's voice spoke through the link. 'I just got her test results back. I'm afraid I have bad news.' 'Tell me what it is.' 'The girl was so badly beaten that her womb was detached, and it's not healing properly. That's what led to her miscarriage. I'm afraid by the looks of things, the young girl can never bear any more children.' 'Thank you for telling me, doctor. I will break the news to her myself.' Kanyon felt a bitter taste in his mouth, realizing he had to deliver yet more terrible news to her. He con

    THREE DAYS LATERIt was finally Friday, which meant that Jessica's Moonday was only two days away. For the past three nights, she had been dreaming of her wolf Cordelia and her Lycan beast Sybil. She still had not told anybody about this. She figured they were only dreams of what life could've been like if she weren't an omega and how much better things would be if she actually had noble blood. If she was truly royalty then sure, she and Kanyon would have made a beautiful couple, but then again she was a barren woman and a king deserved a wife that could at least give him one child. Jessica's bare feet were dirty and buried into the mud. It had rained heavily the previous night dampening the soil on the field. Perspiration dripped off her like she had just emerged from a pool. Each bead of sweat proved the effort she was putting into her training. Kanyon's punch to her jaw made her left ear tingle painfully. She let out a loud scream in pain before she turned her attention back to he

    "Jessica wait!" Kanyon called out to her before she could exit the building. Jessica figured she'd leave the hospital for a bit and come back after the 'expecting couple' wrapped up their appointment. "Jessica, I said stop!" Kanyon didn't want to raise his voice, but he had to in order for her to hear him. He want to avoid making a scene, so he refrained from using his supernatural speed to stop her. With a sigh, she stopped and turned to meet his gaze. "What is it, your majesty?" She faked a smile. "Come on Jess, don't do that," he took her hand in his. "Don't do what?" She rolled her eyes. "Don't act like you're not upset. I know you are. I not only can smell it, but I can feel and taste it too," he admitted. "Well," she sighed. "I am upset, but it's not the reason you think. I won't lie, it stung a bit to see you rubbing on her belly like that. It brought back memories of that video Cam shared where you were kissing my tummy when I was pregnant with Steven," Jessica explained.

    "Oh Jessica," Dr. Peterson let out, acting all surprised like he didn’t expect her. "What on earth are you doing here at this time?" The doctor gave her a coy smile. Jessica's eyes were twitching, and her throat became dry, but she still managed to speak. "I thought you said my appointment is at 2?""Did I now?" Dr. Peterson shook his head. "Then the mistake must be mine. Your appointment is at 2:30," he sighed. "Why don't you wait outside and let me finish up with the expecting couple? We should only be a few more minutes." "OK," Jessica nodded. She left the room without taking another glance at Kanyon and Anna. The pregnant she-wolf was filled with glee seeing the shocked look on the Omega's face. Hopefully, seeing the king this close to her would let the little bitch know he was hers. They were expecting a child together, the next king to the Lycania throne. King Kanyon however, was breathing hard, upset with himself for not saying something to Jessica before she stormed out. O

    "Put me down, Kanyon. I can walk!" Jessica snapped. Despite her wriggling and complaints, the King kept her in his arms until they got to her bedroom. "What did Zachery mean by you should tell me the truth? What else are you not telling me?" Jessica asked as they stepped inside her room. Kanyon made sure to close the door after he entered. "Jessica, do you trust me?" He asked her. A sigh escaped her lips. "Yes, but I —""Then don't worry about what that maniac said. Have faith in me. I will tell you all that you need to know when the time is right. I promise.""OK," she let out. "I'll hold you to that promise." Kanyon checked the time on his phone. "I guess I will have to eat later. I have a conference call to make right now, but did you at least enjoy your breakfast?" "I didn't even eat anything because Zachery interrupted me.""If you'd like, I can have Lucy get something for you.""Sure, I'd appreciate that."Kanyon used the mind-link to tell Lucy that she should bring breakfas

    I've never been to breakfast without Kanyon, Jessica thought to herself. But if she was going to live in this kingdom, then she had to force herself to get used to the place and live like the lycans. She couldn't count on the king to take food to her everyday in her room. He was a busy man, who had way more important things to do than cater to her. So Kanyon slept in Anna's quarters last night, she sighed dramatically while her feet carried her to the grand hall. "So much for him loving me," she whispered under her breath. Why were men like that? They ran into the next available arms when they didn't get their way. Was it a testosterone thing? Or was it an ego thing? Regardless, Jessica found it hard to trust another man with her heart. As she stepped into the packed area, it turned out to be completely different from what she had imagined. At the Warmblood pack, the kitchen staff, consisting of omegas and other high-ranked wolves, served breakfast. Although this approach was somewh

    "Slow down Jess. You're not making any sense," Ariel said over the phone. "Kanyon told me he loves me last night, and I freaked out. I told him I wasn't worthy," Jessica repeated, but this time she took a breath between every word so her statement didn't sound jumbled. "Girl, you better go tell that man you feel the same way before it's too late. Life waits on no one," Ariel instructed. "I know, but I thought since I am an omega, and he's the lycan king, it wouldn't work out," she sighed. She figured it was best to keep the whole wolf/beast fiasco to herself. She wasn't even sure if it was real or just a dream. "Plus he's expecting a pup with a high-ranked she-wolf. Don't you think it's best he mates with the mother of his child?" Jessica whispered, biting her bottom lip while she used her finger to play with the phone cord. "No, the fuck I don't. The heart wants what it wants and he doesn't want Anna. The man craves you, Jessica. I saw the way he looks at you," Ariel barked out.

    'Slow down, Sinbad,' Kanyon asked his beast as they bolted back to the castle. He took Sin out for a hunt because they couldn't sleep, not after that kiss with Jessica. 'I just can't get her out of my mind,' Sinbad complained. 'Will she ever trust us enough to give us her heart?' 'I don't know, Sin. We'll just have to give her a little more time,' Kanyon murmured. 'I don't know if I have it in me to wait,' Sinbad hissed. 'Last night I wanted to grab her and mark her right there by her door.' 'That would have traumatized her even more,' Kanyon let out. 'I know,' Sin growled. 'It was never this difficult with Ellie. Why is that?' 'Isn't it obvious? We loved Ellie, we still do, but we were never in love with her. We might have stolen a few kisses from her, but there was a reason we were never eager to bed her. We weren't sexually attracted to her.’ 'I always thought that maybe we were just too busy running our own kingdoms to partake in sexual exercises,' Sin chuckled. ‘B

    It took Jessica some time before she could drift off to sleep. No other kiss had ever made her feel the way that one did. It was like her soul touched his. It was magical. "Get a grip, Jess," she mumbled to herself. She tossed and turned, fluffing her pillows, struggling to get comfortable. Still, how could she manage to think clearly when her mind was filled with thoughts of Kanyon's soft yet demanding lips and his enticing aroma? He smelt like sex itself and his masculinity was overwhelming. Each time she ran her hands over him, the way he would clench his jaws and the hardness of his muscles made her swallow nervously. Plus he opened up about his feelings for her. Was it even real? She pondered. She let out a tired yawn. "I know. I'll phone Ariel in the morning and ask her for some advice." Jessica blinked away the world and peacefully dozed off. ****** Jessica opened her eyes to find herself surrounded by total darkness. She couldn't see anything at all; no lights,

  • THE REJECTED OMEGA IS THE LYCAN KING’S MATE   73: THE KISS

    King Kanyon remained patient while Jessica gathered her thoughts. He told her everything about how his wife died, well, almost everything. He left out the fact that Ellie is her aunt and her mother's twin sister. "Kanyon! I'm at a loss for words," she gasped. "How can one woman be so evil?""I was on my way to gut her when I found you," he sighed. "Call it fate or coincidence, but I was meant to find you that day.""I'm glad you did,” she beamed."There is something else I want to tell you," he stated. "I went to the Graceland pack and had a meeting with the alpha and Luna. I also met the red-headed harlots and Cory and his wife.""So they got married," she rolled her eyes. "Figures,” she scoffed. “But how did I not know you went to see them?”"It was after the vampire almost drained your blood. You were in and out of consciousness, and recovering in the hospital, so Cam and I used that time to pay the pack a little visit.""I wish I could have come.""I'm glad you didn't. I gained a
