Taken By The Lycan King 23: Starving
Knock, knock.I was barely awake and the knocks on the door seemed like miles away. I groaned and the door flung open. The knocker took it as a yes. Sara's shape came into view with her gracefully carrying a tray of sandwiches and bacon. The warm smell of creamy latte filled my nose and my stomach grumbled in confrontation.I slightly opened my sleepy eyes and could see Sara trying so hard to tiptoe because she did not want to disturb my sleep. She carefully placed the tray on the bedside table. I turned over to the other side of the bed and closed my eyes firmly. I was eager to get some more sleep before taking my breakfast. For what could be counted as minutes, I waded in and out of sleep.The gentle slam of a distant door woke me up again. I had not heard Sara leave the room nor when she closed the door. I opened my eyes fully and absentmindedly gazed at the mahogany wardrobe at the posterior end of the room. It was an Urban Outfitters inspo just like the ones I had always saved on
Taken By The Lycan King 24: Levi Anderson
NADINE"Levi, is that you I see?" Mama Teresa's small love-shaped face contorted into a scowl and her hands akimbo.The young man Mama Teresa called Levi turned the corners of his lips down and furrowed his brows as he moved closer to Mama Theresa."Yes, mama. You look ravishing as usual." He attempted to pull the old woman's small frame into his arms. The latter held up a hand signalling him to stay where he was. A look of disappointment swept over his face yet he had an amusing smile plastered on his lips."But not ravishing enough to have you come over and ask after me, uhn?" Mama Teresa protested.Levi thrust his palms forward in a pleading stance and bowed his head slightly."You have to forgive me, mama. I have had a lot to do lately." He sounded quite apologetic. "Who am I to abandon our beautiful, never-too-old Mama Theresa?" He held his head up now, giving the old woman the widest grinMama Teresa cast him a disbelieving look. "Young man, do not try to flirt with me to get on
Taken By The Lycan King 25: Bad Blood
NADINEKai's eyes had turned fiery red as he advanced towards us. With his nose flared and palms clenching and unclenching, he looked like he was about to rip Levi's head off. The two were of equal height and had the same body mass, I feared I was about to witness a bullfight.Levi's hand still rested gently on my shoulder and although it was meant to be comforting, he seemed to keep there to get on Kai’s nerves and he was succeeding.He didn't make any attempt to take it off even after Kai barked at him to do so. The huge smirk on his face did not waver and he stared at Kai like Kai was some kind of irrational kid who was busy throwing tantrums around.Kai stopped right in front of Levi, breathing and fuming into the latter's face."What the hell do you think you're doing in my house?" He bellowed.Levi slowly removed his hand from my shoulder and turned his whole body to Kai. He folded his arms, heaved a deep sigh and shook his head slowly."Breathe, tiger."Kai raised a brow which

NADINEIt was way past midnight and I just couldn't get myself to sleep. I sighed noiselessly but I could still hear my breath. The room was pitch black like I liked it to be while sleeping. But I wasn't just in the least comfortable.The events which happened earlier seemed like I was in a fast-reel movie. A movie where I happened to have no lines and had no idea how I ended up there as a character.How ever had I ended up here, in this weird world where I know nobody and everything looked so unreal? I hadn't envisioned my life going through this nightmarish path.Perhaps I should have just stopped pursuing the dream of building Eden City, maybe I would not have been in this state I am right now. All I have ever wanted was to be a successful architect, to live a satisfying life and to have the money to travel to as many countries as possible.Back home, I kept wondering whether I would even be missed at all. My life was like a straight line, from my work to my apartment.Thinking ab
Taken By The Lycan King 27: A romp in the kitchen
27KAII’ve been in a sour mood since I came back home to meet Levi in the house and not only did he have the audacity to barge into my house unannounced, he had the nerve to put his hands on Nadine’s shoulders. Her shoulders. The memory made my blood boil and if it wasn’t that Mother Teresa was around, heaven knows what I’d have done to Levi but one thing was certain, he wasn’t going to leave here in one piece. Calm down, buddy, it was just a harmless friendly gesture. It’s not that deep. I ignored my wolf that was trying to be a voice of reasoning because I knew Levi like that back of my palm and I knew nothing was harmless about him. Even if he was going to get destroyed in the process, he wouldn’t mind sabotaging me just to get the satisfaction of seeing me ruined. What he had against me was that strong. If he had to go through some crooked ways just to get Nadine away from me even though he knew I needed her to make Eden City survive, I knew he wouldn’t hesitate to do that.
Taken By The Lycan King 28: Must Have Rattled Him
NADINEMinutes had passed before I realised I was still behind the door of my room. I had practically raced from the kitchen back to my room and slammed the door shut as if to shut out the feelings brewing inside me. I noticed I had been holding my breath and I quickly took in large gulps of air.What the hell was I thinking?This was someone I had vowed to stay away from and had pure disdain for. An animal! I touched my lips and realised they were swollen from the kiss.I was totally dishevelled. His entirety had carried me away and I couldn't but succumb to the way his lips and tongue violated my mouth. I had laid myself bare to the desire to take him in, to give the will to explore every nook and cranny of my body.I made my way to the bed, laid on my back and stared straight at the dark ceiling. The memory of the kiss kept reeling back and I didn't make any attempt to push them away. I remembered every detail and I longed for a redo.Jesus Christ, what is wrong with me?I had neve
Taken By The Lycan King 29: Emily
EMILYThe umbrella shed behind the director's bus was my only solace at the moment. When the meteorologist had claimed the weather would be friendly, he omitted the part of friendly enough to melt you down. The sun was bent on forcing the tan on everybody this afternoon. And I wanted none of it today. The entire crew was acting all slow and annoying.I reached out for the chair under the shed and my assistant was beside me in seconds, with the big rechargeable fan I so much needed at the moment. But I felt my space violated by her presence. Neither the shed nor the fan could calm the storm brewing in me.It has been a few days since my encounter with Nadine and Kai at the store and I swore that day had been the worst day of my life. The thought of being abandoned by Kai even after professing my love for him filled me with spite. Spite directed towards that stranger he claimed to be his mate. I found it hard to admit I was threatened by her presence, her beauty and even her status with
Taken By The Lycan King 30: Tormenting Her For Days
