Taken By The Lycan King 26: Admiring Him
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
NADINEThe days have become a blur with me literally reliving a moment that could haven't lasted for a minute. I still felt the weight of Kai's full lips on mine and I swore I could sketch the entirety of it if given the opportunity.I kept failing to remind myself that I was in the kidnapper's territory and I needed to get my mind straight very soon. My plans of escaping have been wrung out of my mind and replaced with the passionate minute I had with Kai.I know I shouldn't let this corrode my mind and make me want more. I had complete disdain for this man-animal but my desires are telling me otherwise.But my plan of escaping still had a way of being around even when I'm lost in my daydreams.Sara had been keeping my company for the last few days. And when I'm not reliving the kiss, I get into conversations with Sara who seems fashion-oriented and tells me everything and anything about Eden City. Her affable behaviour reminded me of a colleague of mine, Tania and I wondered whether

KAIThe kiss, that moment and Nadine running away had gotten some kind of permanent sitting on my mind. The entirety of it all got me agitated and I couldn't get the whole thing out of my mind.At work, I was busy shuffling between listening to various presentations and thinking of Nadine all day long. The latter got a greater hold of me and my wolf kept urging me on.I mostly smelt her scent with Sara's the past few days. Sometimes I wondered if she was as crazy about me as I was about her. But I knew better than to go see her.My wolf had been agitated since that night and only wanted more of the whole encounter, it wanted to explore not only her lips but her whole porcelain body. When I think about how my wolf almost went wild during the kiss, I wondered how wild it would go the next time I see her.Sometimes, I half-mindedly hope to see her when I get back from work. But on some days, I would enter the ground than let her see me.Today, I was not sure I wanted to set my eyes on he

NADINEHours later, after watching the 3-hour movie Sara forced me down to watch, which I couldn't deny I enjoyed. Well up until Kai reared his face. I had averted my gaze rather clumsily when our eyes locked on each other. His eyes had weighed me down and a tirade of thoughts had overlapped one another in just that moment.I didn't even think before finding solace in the movie I had been watching. I wasn't even concentrating on the movie but instead on the exchange of pleasantries between Sara and Kai and then when he greeted me, my heart stopped for a split second. I had thought he would ignore me and I would undoubtedly do the same.On the one hand, replying to his greeting would give him ideas and make me look somewhat accessible and on the other hand, I clearly was brain dead as a rock after locking eyes with him, stuttering was the last thing I would ever want to happen to me when I was in the same space with Kai.As I lay in bed that night, tossing and turning mindlessly, I ke

NADINEThe smell of freshly made pancakes filled the entire kitchen and made my mouth water immediately. Mama Teresa was at her best again with Sara and me in tow."Are we having the chocolate syrup with it or the strawberry syrup?" asked Sara who eyed the pancakes hungrily. "I vote for the strawberry," She said almost immediately."Stop breathing down my neck, Sara. You are not the only one who is eating breakfast here."Sara looked up at me with puppy eyes, from behind Mama Teresa, pulling her lower lip out. If I do not agree with her with the strawberry, she wouldn't definitely be in a foul mood throughout the day.I preferred the chocolate syrup but I wasn't ready to make Sara sniffer that morning."I would love the strawberry syrup too, it has quite an exquisite taste to it." I stated.Mama Teresa looked at me from under her eyes "Not because she pleaded with her eyes to ask you to support her?""No, no. I do not have anything against strawberry syrup. As a matter of fact, I love
