Taken By The Lycan King 59: Girlish Conversations
NADINEI had never seen Sara look so serious as she carefully wielded a pink cuticle stick to push back the cuticles of my left fingers. But that had not stopped her from not talking about some popular salon we should have gone to instead of the other one we had gone to the other day.She took a lilac nail polish out of her large set of different colours and sizes of nail polish and rubbed it between her palms rapidly."What's that for?" I questioned, amused by the show."To make the polish warm" The look on her face protested against my question. Did she expect me to know why she was rubbing the bottle? "Just sit back and let me do my work""-Sometimes you just have to lay off, press on nails for a while and take time to take care of your own nails" She stated like a professional.I nodded. Sara had been frequently visiting my room since we went to the spa together. With my new cellphone, alongside her presence, I had successfully eased off the boredom that was seething into my entir
Taken By The Lycan King 60: Primal Need
My study became a temporary harbour for me in the following weeks. I had been head-deep into finding out what powers the bastard had to raise such threats against Eden City.If he thought he was that smart to come back after so many years to take undeserved vengeance for his people, he made the wrong choice.But most of all I struggled with the primal need to have Nadine with me. Her scent was all over the house and I couldn't concentrate properly around the house. I avoided the places I knew she could be around the house, especially with Sara and Mama Teresa in the Kitchen.I would sometimes listen around for the sound of her voice and it would drive me crazy just listening to her laugh with Sara.I was a bit envious of their bond and wished she had been that free around me and not regarded me as a narcissistic and callous animal.I was overwhelmed by the maelstrom of emotions surrounding the mate bond which threatened to break me if I didn't put myself into control.My wolf's grumbl
Taken By The Lycan King 61: I Need You
NADINEDays after I had confronted Kai about if there were reports of me missing in my world, I had decided to continue with my act of playing dumb and get along with the whole thing if I needed to find a way to leave Eden City.If what he had said about the timelines was true, then I wouldn't be so worried or eager to leave Eden City, I would take my time in finding a way out, I needed my escape plan to be flawless.I had to stick to my plan of pretending I was going along with the whole saviour/mate thing. Kai needed to believe I had accepted my fate and loosen up his guard. He was the only person I needed eyes off me.My room was the one place where I cooked up a cacophony of ideas to make myself feel level-headed while mapping out my escape plan.It wasn't enough that I was hanging out with Sara and Mama Teresa. I needed to appear interested in the activities going around and since a potential danger was hovering around the city, I needed to clasp my wings and settle for whatever
Taken By The Lycan King 62: Vulnerable Alpha
KAITaking her to my company was the last thing I could ever do. It was enough torture having her around me in the house. I doubted I could get any work done if she stepped foot in my company. I couldn’t imagine the other wolves at work seeing their Alpha lagging and unfocused.She was going to be the end of me. She just doesn't know how much she affects my entire mood. How much my wolf was already crazy with meed by her just standing there arguing with her cute little mouth.I had felt her scent before she opened the door and braced for the whirlwind of emotions sure to captivate me the moment I set my eyes on her. I had steeled my wolf as she waltzed in with her sweatshirt and baggy shorts with so much grace laden with heavy defiance. Damn, she looked sexy in every damn clothing."I keep thinking it's the mate bond but it is definitely something more. Hell, I do not remember what my life had been before I brought you here. I’m sorry if you think I am holding you back, I just don't k
Taken By The Lycan King 63: What You Do To Me
NADINEMy head was bombarded with a whirlwind of emotions as I hastened my steps toward my room. The kiss had been out of this world and my lips still tingled with the lingering sensation of the intensity of Kai's lips devouring mine.I could still feel the warmth of his breath on my skin and the feel of his palms at the nape of my neck. My insides had been squirting wet with every touch. It was a connection I had never felt before and left me begging for more.And I had allowed myself to fall so deep into it without any resistance. I almost died seeing Sara’s shocked face when she swung the door.A part of my mind wondered why she turned up at that moment when I couldn’t wait for Kai's hands over my naked longing body. And another part of it was pissed at how I had the chance to leave the room but I got lost in my own lust and a passionate connection I had felt when he moved toward me.My mind reeled back to the words he had utteredYou have no idea what you do to me. You have no id
Taken By The Lycan King 64: Gym Day
SARA"I feel all worked up already, " I said to Nadine as I twirled around in my moisture-wicking sports bra and shorts the moment she got out of her room."I carried water bottles for two" I reached for the bottles I had in my gym bag.Nadine looked over at me incredulously with amusement glinting in her eyes."What?""You look so excited? I don't want you going there and telling me you are exhausted after two minutes”I rolled my eyes as I scoffed at her terrible assumption of me being a weak ass "You really think I'm weak, don't you, have you seen my glutes?” in all honesty, I had been doing mild workouts in the corner of my room, jamming songs to hit me up, only to resume back at it two weeks later. Yesterday as soon as Nadine suggested we come by the gym today, I knew consistency was rearing its head with a gym partner.She strode forward in her grey sports bra and performance leggings, flexing her set body with some warm-ups. She was right, I was thrilled about it.Nearing the e
Taken By The Lycan King 64: Promise Me
KAIConfessing my feelings to Nadine must have shocked her more than I intended. A couple of days after she had come into my study, I rarely saw her but her scent infiltrated around the house. I had been leaving my study more hoping to talk to her but she had begun the avoiding game.I had even started to come downstairs to look around the Castle grounds. I had the immense urge to continue from where we had stopped the other day.I hadn't made much progress with getting the rogue but he had not made any attack since the last time he murdered a guard and a customer at a superstore. It was like he disappeared for days but I had a sneaking feeling the bastard was plotting something, something I couldn’t figure out. I couldn't afford to let down my guard. I intensified the security range across the city, ordering two dozen guards to join the current ones at every assigned post. I had most of them at the intersection between Old Monroe and the rest of the city. Fuck his dark magic, he i

Taken By The Lycan King 144: That Ends Well
NADINETwo years later…It was Mama Teresa's fifty-fifth birthday and we took the time to celebrate it by having a poolside lunch.Sara had taken her time in having her styled in a trendy organza outfit and insisted she did her nails. She was a professional at it now, exploring new designs and working closely with her favourite designer Emily had introduced to her.And now she was right here, carrying around my baby boy. Collins who was on his way to becoming a two-year-old.He was the cutest baby ever and hardly gave anybody trouble. He smiled at every given moment and was rarely cranky. He had an uncanny resemblance to Kai.When he had come out of me, I had held the most beautiful being I had ever set my eyes on and a little dimple had shown when he smiled at me.Kai's eyes had melted when he first beheld his son. He had cradled him and sat somewhere far away from him, simply staring at the little bundle of happiness in the Cruz family. Collins Cruz.Kai never stopped being the perf

LEVIAfter everything had settled down, I had just one goal. To get Emily.I continued sending her gifts and even though she wasn't rejecting them, she persisted in ignoring me. She still wouldn't return my calls and texts but I was unperturbed. I knew her, she was trying to admit to herself she wasn't into me so badly. Then she had started coming around to my place at late nights, pushing her body against me, and me having no total power to resist her.Every time we had had some mind-blowing sex, she was in no time to talk, and even if she was there, it was to tell me not to give meaning to whatever just happened between us after which she would storm out.I didn't want to be on a pure sexual vibe with Emily. I wanted more. I wanted love.In an attempt to keep riling her up, I stopped at one of her shoots and the moment I came into plain view, her eyes had risen to meet mine but she looked away immediately.It was an outdoor shoot for a footwear brand. And she looked mesmerising in
Taken By The Lycan King 142: Becoming The Luna
NADINEI never would have called myself a resilient lady until the issue with Lucas trying to become the most powerful wolf, not only in Eden City but also taking over the real world.And one sickening thing about the whole issue had been finding out Lucas was the one behind it. I could never have imagined.The moment I had woken up in a dark room when the abominable wind grabbed hold of me, he had watched me with the most sinister look I had ever seen.I remembered calling out to him and telling him to save me but he had grabbed me by the hand and shoved me down roughly instead The memories run a shiver down my spine every day.I could remember our conversation back at the bar months ago. It had been one of the many reasons I had decided to stay back at Eden.But it had all been a crafty ploy to get closer to me. The feeling of being used took a long time before it wore off me.Kai made sure not to allow me to watch his public execution the night after being rescued. He had been bent
Taken By The Lycan King 141: Back at Home
KAI"Kai", Adam called my attention, apprehension corroding his face. I looked up from where I stood with Emily."It's up, the full moon is out" His voice was filled with dread. I felt my stomach knot even after Emily had told me something stronger than the mate bond could break the barrier and that is if I loved Nadine unconditionally.I knew I loved Nadine. I did with all my life.But I felt helpless, How do we go about it? I was lost in my solitude of thoughts, staring anxiously at the moon which had now risen in all its glory, its heavenly glow wafting through the entire City.The whole room was lit with its embers. And I silently prayed to the moon goddess as I stood there. Just then, Lucas' voice came cascading through the whole house again."It was a pleasure seeing you people work tirelessly, You are a very poor team, I must say. " He said mirthlessly before he gave out a screeching laughter, mocking us."Don't touch her, you madman" I roared, banging the walls and windows. I
Taken By The Lycan King 140: Kidnapped
KAIWe headed out for a hunt. The hunt for the maniac who took Nadine away from me.Adam had suggested going around the abandoned buildings on the outskirts of Eden City and the houses of the council members. It wasn't no Old Monroe, it was someone we all knew.I had been at the council meeting once when Emily told me about the involvement of one of them. I had tried feeling something, looking for just anything, any slip-up to get who it could be.I had them oblivious to the whole matter. It was better that way. I couldn't trust any single one of them. They all looked fatherly and greeted me warmly without no hesitation.Even Elder Will, who was always on board with conspiracy theories didn't look a bit like a madman. I gave up on reading their faces.Going to their houses now could tip the maniac off. If there had been note time before the full room, we could have run wires around their houses but it was not needed anymore. We only had less than three hours till the full moon came up

KAIMy eyes widened as her statement sank in. It was the last thing I was expecting to hear. My mind went blank for a few seconds as I stared into her face which was turning concerned.But she had been at the pharmacy days ago. But it hit me, she had brought a thin paper bag. And I hadn't bothered to ask her about it. Inwardly, I berated myself for not paying much attention ever since Emily told me about her visions.I felt helpless and wasn't even trying to get a grip on myself. And now a life was being developed in Nadine, a life we had both brought into living. And god dammit if some elder was going to prevent me from seeing my first seed.Nadine touched my face and shook me lightly. She must have thought I had relapsed into myself as I stood there, watching her with unmetered surprise."I'm pregnant, Kai" She reiterated before pulling my palm sliding it down her stomach, and smiling weakly,"I need to stay here and fight whatever is coming with you…We are going to be together,
Taken By The Lycan King 138: Unexpected Good News
KAII felt utterly helpless as the days surmounted, slowly leading to the next full moon. As each day passed without finding out who could be threatening Nadine's life, it had me becoming increasingly worried about her. I made the whole situation oblivious to her.I couldn't afford to get her nervous. She watched me closely and I knew she could detect something going on but she made no mention of it.And I was glad she didn't. I was mostly locked up in my study, a whole mind map laid over from the information I had just gotten about Nadine's ancestry.I had set up a contingency team with Adam, Emily and Levi. Emily was inherently valuable to the group, mostly because she was the one with the visions that could guide her into finding out the culprit.We needed her badly and she readily agreed to help. She came around to the house, exchanging pleasantries with Mama Teresa and Nadine with a look of guilt strewn over her face.When thoughts of the things she had done corroded my mind, I c
Taken By The Lycan King 137: A New Enemy
KAI My hands rimmed firmly on the steering wheel as we drove back home. And Emily's words corroded the entirety of my mind. Nadine immediately asked me what she had come for when I got back to the car. I shrugged and smiled at her,b3fkre squeezing her open palm as softly as I could. "It's nothing, she is just reporting some stuff on her job. You know she's a custodian." I replied, feeling guilty for lying to her. She let out an ohh and watched me pasely before I turned my eyes back to the road. From the corner of my eyes, I could see she was about to say something else but decided against it. I tried to bring up random conversations which she engaged in with me but I kept zoning out, my mind preoccupied with the looming danger that could affect the love of my fucking life in a few days if Emily was telling the truth. And I cursed under my breath. Emily had better be joking about this. I didn't need any more terrible occurrences happening again, not with Nadine again. Who the hel
Taken By The Lycan King 136: New Lovers
LEVIThe colour on her face drained the moment she turned around and saw me. I smiled widely at her, ignoring Kai's scornful look behind her at the drama unfolding in front of him.I couldn't believe she had actually announced to Kai that I was her boyfriend. Inwardly, I was conflicted about whether she was trying to show Kai she was already over him or she really meant what she said."What are you doing here?" Emily said in a low tone which clearly carried hostility but I was untethered. I took her hand and pulled her gently towards me before wrapping an arm around her slim waist, an action causing shock to ripple through her body.And I knew my answer was somewhat in my favour.I hadn't been following her. I had not even seen her for days now but I was constantly sending her gifts at work and home.The situation had plainly presented itself when I was returning from work and I saw her car, one I could recognise anywhere, slide into Kai's company.I stopped and watched how she hurrie
