Kira's POV
The reaction I got from Xavier was a lot worse than what I had expected. Seeing so much anger on his face, I Immediately knew that a big punishment awaited me. I didn't even know why I had hit him, This wasn't the first time he was bullying me and it certainly wouldn't be the last." You fucking bitch! " Xavier was furious, he couldn't believe that I had just raised my hand on him. He was quick to take action. He grabbed me by my hair and slammed my face hard on the table he had promised to fuck me onI was in so much pain that I couldn't even open my eyes after that. I slid to my knees and cradled my injured face. I could feel blood pouring out of my nose. But Xavier didn't stop there, he kept kicking me hard on my stomach until I almost lost consciousness." You should have felt lucky that I would even sleep with someone like you! You are nothing but a disgusting bitch, a total bastard who no one wants anything to do with. It would be better if I just killed you now and saved the alpha the trouble of doing so in the future"" S...stop h...hitting me...Please" I begged with tears running down my face. I regretted my actions already and wished I had just allowed Xavier to do whatever he wanted. I couldn't imagine what my father would do to me when he heard of this, I was sure Xavier would make up a twisted story to tell him.Just when I thought Xavier had gotten tired of hitting me and was going to leave me alone, the door of the room was pushed open and Lucille marched in with an angry expression. She glared at me on the floor with hatred. " Xavier, someone said you were talking with this trash earlier, what did you do?"" Calm down my love, I didn't do anything. I was just going to punish her for what she did to you yesterday but then she tried to kiss me, I had no choice but to beat her up. She is getting too confident and now thinks she can steal me away from you" Xavier said with a smirkLucille's face became red with anger when she heard this. " You fucking bitch! I hate you! Why don't you just die!" Lucille rushed forward and started kicking me harder than Xavier. I couldn't do anything but curl into myself and try to protect my face. There was no doubt that I had a broken rib and fractured ankle from all the beating I was getting from my sister and her boyfriend. I was crying silently in pain, not knowing what else to doXavier had told a lie about me and Lucille had believed it. She would tell an even bigger lie to my parents when we got home and my injuries would be a lot worse. There was a pack doctor but I was never allowed to visit him. The wounds on my body all became scars that refused to disappear because I wasn't able to treat them. My body was littered with them which gave my body an ugly appearance. It was no wonder Lucille always called me an ugly pig.The only place that hadn't been injured was my face, the Luna had done her best to make sure she ruined it. She once poured hot water all over my face and then sent me away to the pack dungeons to spend a night. But I had been helped by an old man who worked in the dungeons and I was given treatment for my face. Luna Ivory had been so angry when she found out that someone had helped me and had him sent out of the pack" Just wait until Dad finds out about this, you are dead," Lucille said and spat on me.She turned away from me and walked towards Xavier who was watching her with a prideful expression. He leaned down to wrap his arms around her and they kissed deeply. Their kissing soon heated up and he had her against the table with her skirt pulled to her stomach. Xavier unbuckled his jeans and soon started fucking her right in front of meThey were both crying and moaning in pleasure. Xavier had his eyes on me as he fucked Lucille. I had used my injured hand to cover my eyes so I wouldn't have to see their disgraceful actions. Xavier however didn't like the fact that I wasn't watching, he was always the masochistic type to want his victim to watch him fuck someone" Open your eyes bitch! Watch me fuck your sister because no one is going to ever want to fuck you slut!"" She must be jealous, she wishes she was in my position, that was why she had tried to seduce you," Lucille said while looking over in my direction." I will never want to be with a pig like her! She is nothing but a useless bastard, a waste of space!"I felt tears pouring down my face again at their words. I had heard those same words countless times from other pack members, there was no one in the Blood Moon pack who liked me. I was living a life of misery and shame.Xavier and Lucille soon got done with their activities. They cleaned up themselves and walked out of the room leaving me alone, I was lying in the dirt in pain and none of them even cared. I wasn't sure how much time passed with me laying there in pain, but I was able to see from a window that the sky was getting dark outside. I managed to pull myself to a standing position and made my way home. Since the school had been locked at this time I had to pass through the fence which just made my injuries worseWhen I got home, my stepmother was already waiting for me in the kitchen. Lucille must have already told her what happened. She greeted me with a slap the moment she laid eyes upon me. " Apart from all the troubles you have caused you still didn't come home to prepare dinner?! You are getting too much freedom in the house!"" I...I am sorry...I will do it right away"" Hurry up and do it! The Alpha will deal with you once he returns, I don't have time to handle trash " Luna Ivory walked out of the kitchen after saying this. I quickly went to freshen up and start making dinner. It was hell for me because my entire body was screaming in pain. Two of my fingers were completely immobile because Lucille had managed to break them while beating me up. On countless occasions, I thought I was going to pass out, but by some miracle, I managed to finish dinner and set the table. After serving the food to my step-family, I went back to the kitchen and collapsed on the floor.I was preparing myself for another round of beating when my father came back. But surprisingly he doesn't even pay a single glance at me. He was beaming with excitement as he went to sit beside my stepmother and sister." I have very good news today"" What is it, Dad?" Lucille asked in curiosity" His Majesty, Alpha Killian of the Lycan pack is coming to our pack tomorrow"" What? You mean the Lycan king is coming to our pack? But why? "" You both are aware that the Lycan pack has a prophetess who sees the future right?" Alpha Zack continued when both his wife and daughter nodded " Well, the Prophetess had a vision that the Lycan King's mate is from our pack. And since the Lycan king hadn't found his mate all these years he believes what the prophetess said. He is coming to the Blood Moon Pack in hopes of finding his mate"" That is amazing my love, if the Lycan king's mate comes from our pack then it would further boost our power and rank among other packs. This is the best news ever " Luna Ivory said in excitement." And it gets even better. I think that Lucille is the destined mate of the Lycan king. She fits all descriptions by the prophetess about the King's mate. With her black hair and kind heart , she also comes directly from a line of pure wolves"" Oh my gosh! Really? Does this mean I am going to marry the Lycan king? " Lucille couldn't contain her excitement. The thought of being the mate of the most powerful alpha in the world sent her into a frenzy of excitement. The Lycan king was not only powerful but he was said to be very good-looking, he had riches beyond her wildest imagination. She was bound to live a good life if she was indeed mated to him." Yes Lucille, you are indeed going to be the mate of the lycan king. This is a blessing from the moon goddess. You must remember that we can't let this chance pass us. Mate, you have to make our daughter look outstanding tomorrow so when the Lycan king sees her he will immediately fall in love with her"" I understand my love, don't worry about it. Leave everything to me"I overheard this conversation from the kitchen. I had heard rumors about the lycan king once, he was said to be cold and ruthless, and some even said that he killed without mercy. And the scary thing is that the lycan king only became an adult two years ago, yet he hadn't found his mate. So if Lucille was truly his mate then there was no doubt that he would love and cherish her. This would prove beneficial to the Blood Moon packMy only hope is that once Lucille becomes the mate of the Lycan king I would never have to see her again. She was the main reason why I was given a hard time in the pack, if she left then things might get better. I wasn't planning to stay in the pack forever, no, as soon as I turn eighteen tomorrow I will start planning my escapeI had gathered enough money in the past few years to be able to survive on my own, Once I get the chance then I would run away to the human world and start my life afresh.Unfortunately for me, I wasn't aware that my plans would never work out. The arrival of the Lycan king would change me foreverKillian's POVI couldn't contain my excitement on the day we were to embark on the trip to the Blood Moon Pack. Ever since the prophetess told me that my mate was in that pack had been dying of eagerness to go there and find her. If it wasn't for my father who had insisted that I wait a few more days then I would have probably gone by myself to fetch her.Even though most people said I was cruel and cold-hearted, I still had a soft spot for my mate. And why wouldn't I? She was my other half and was going to be the mother of my child. it had been 3 years now since I turned eighteen and got my wolf, Raphael, in a normal case I should have been able to find my mate the moment I turned 18 but unfortunately, I hadn't. I had begun to think I didn't have one and would never produce an heir that would take after me, even my younger brother had found his mate a year ago and was happily married to her.I thought that perhaps I had done something to offend the moon goddess, so I spent many days p
Killian's PovI couldn't believe I was holding her in my arms. Her sweet scent although faint was still evident to me. I couldn't understand why she had tried to run away, didn't she recognize me as her mate? Didn't she want me? The more I thought of this the more I felt my possessiveness grow, I was so happy that I had found her, I couldn't imagine having to lose her. She was the one I had been praying to the moon goddess for all my life, she was the one who would mother my pups and rule my kingdom beside me." Your Majesty?" I heard her say. She was looking up at me with confusion in her eyes. I was happy that she wasn't struggling anymore, perhaps she also realized that I was her mate" Yes, it is me, my love, I am very happy I finally found you. You can't imagine how long I had prayed to have you in my arms, my Luna, my mate"" I am your mate?"" Yes, can you not feel the bond between us? Is it one-sided" I was becoming worried the more we spoke. She didn't seem to recognize me as
Killian's POVThe next day arrived, and Lucille and I were ready to make our way back to the Lycan pack. I couldn't contain my happiness at having finally found my mate. I held Lucille tightly, afraid that she might disappear if I let her go. She gladly stayed by my side, enjoying the attention and care I gave her.We stood together, overlooking the landscape as the sun rose, painting the sky with beautiful colors. It was time for us to begin our journey. Lucille's presence filled me with a sense of strength and determination. I felt like I could overcome any challenge that lay ahead. Holding her close, I cherished the connection we shared, as if it was meant to be.Lucille's vibrant spirit and unwavering loyalty had captured my heart completely. I was no longer alone, wandering through life without purpose. She had become the guiding light that led me forward, the one who kept my restless soul grounded.My gaze shifted towards a young man with short brown hair and a strikingly pretty
Kira's POVIt took several hours, and at the end of it all, I was feeling very tired and hungry. By morning we arrived at the Lycan Palace. It was just as big as I had imagined, it was a grand mansion that stretched for acres of land, and it was heavily protected by large walls and strong Werewolves who were all under the Lycan King. There was a beautiful garden cultivated in front of the entrance of the Palace, there were more flowers than I had ever seen in my entire life. I couldn't help being fascinated by it. I was born and raised in the packhouse and I hadn't seen a lot while growing up, I was always working all the time. The only flowers I had seen before were the wild ones growing in the forest surrounding our pack territory. And that was only when Luna Ivory forced me to go get some things for her. So I couldn't hold myself back from admiring the flowers I saw here. Unfortunately for me, I forgot my identity while being lost in my fascination. The men who had gotten out of t
Kira's POVI remained standing outside the throne room, waiting for my sister and her mate to come out. But when the large doors opened, the man who stepped out of the room was not the Lycan King but a blond-haired man whose appearance was very handsome. But he was giving off a very cold aura that made me want to make myself small. I knew immediately that he was not someone to be easily messed with. I could make out a slight resemblance between him and the Lycan king, they must be related.As he approached me, I quickly took a step out of the way and tried to make myself appear small. He didn't notice me before, maybe he did but he assumed I was unimportant, maybe a maid. But I had no idea what drove him to notice me, one second he was walking, then he was sniffing the air around him and then he turned those piercing blue eyes of his to me. There was a curious expression on his face as he regarded me. " G..Greetings your Highness " I quickly said as he walked to stand in front of me.
Killian's POVI had a lot of meetings to take care of. The few days I had been away had caused me to miss out on a lot of paperwork and some Pack issues had not been resolved. Even though my father had covered for me while I was away, according to our laws he could only handle small issues, and only the Lycan King could resolve bigger ones. But I wasn't irritated by the workload, I was already used to handling this much since I became Prime Alpha. What annoyed me was my inability to spend time with my mate. She was someone I had been dreaming of all my life, and now that she was here with me, I was too busy to even spend time with her properly. We had only been apart for half an hour yet I missed her badly. I couldn't even focus on my work properly, my wolves were making a lot of noise in my head, urging me to go and find my mate. Eventually, I couldn't resist it anymore, I had to see Lucille, even if it was for a little bit. So I left my work and made my way towards her Chambers, I
Kira's POVIn all my years of living with my abusive parents and pack, no one had ever shaken me like the Lycan King had. I was still shivering in fright even when I made it to the kitchen where I was expected to help wash dishes. There was something about Killian's voice, so cold and filled with hatred that I would have thought we were mortal enemies instead of strangers. I had no idea what I had done to make him dislike me to this extent, and within just a short period as well. I was hoping that if I stayed out of his way, he might continue tolerating me or even treat me like air, just as he did whenever he was around my sister.I would have loved it if we remained mutual towards each other. But it was clear that he didn't like me now, he might even decide to get rid of me if he couldn't stand me anymore, and no one would be there to save me. I felt so frightened and heartbroken that I wanted to cry so badly, why did everything have to turn out so badly for me? What had I done to de
Kira's POVI had to be the most unlucky person in the whole damn universe! How the hell had I gotten myself involved in this dangerous game? Asher wanted the throne, it was clear that he would do whatever it took to snatch it from his brother, and to him, I was a tool he could use. He knew that I was the secret to something, but he just had no idea what that was, and he would use me to find out what secret Lucille was hiding. Because he knew that my sister was going to be the concrete that would solidify Killian's position as King, which meant if anything happened to Lucille, or if she did anything that might get the Kingdom to disdain her, Killian would have no option but to choose between her and his people. And with how much effort he had put into finding Lucille, it was likely that he would choose to protect his mate despite any of her wrongdoings. His doing this will make his pack members very angry with him, and Asher will use this perfect opportunity to dethrone him. Because t
Asher's POVKira's recovery was slow. Even though I provided her with the best doctors in the whole kingdom, it seemed nothing could nurse her back to full health. A month later and she remained in the nursery where the Doctors could tend to her." She might hurt herself again " one of the doctors told me, he was the one I trusted most to take care of Kira. I would stay and look after her if I could, but I still had my duties as king to perform, now that things have gone out of hand with threats of a rogue pack protesting to dethrone me, I hardly had time to come see her " her problem is a mental one. I think the best Line action would be to get her a therapist so as to overcome her demons, she will heal better after that"I thank the doctor, but i have no idea how to tell him that the only person who could helpkira was unavialable. i hd no idea where my brother was, even though i tried to track him down, knowing his whereabouts might help with the guilt i felt. i didn't think I would
Sebastain couldn't wait to see Kira. He wanted to ensure she was alright and that their baby was healthy as well. The truth was, he was afraid Asher might try something stupid, such as terminating the pregnancy without his or Kira's knowledge. Afterall, he knew that Asher liked Kira as well, so he wouldn't want her carrying someone else's child. The man was a heartless bastard through and through. This might be an unplanned Pregnancy, but he had no right to try terminating.Sebastain honestly regretted not treating Kira better now. Perhaps if he had approached her in a better manner, they might have taken off on a good start, and perhaps she would have agreed to stay with him in his pack. It was too late now, what he had done to her was shitty, even if he regrets it it wouldn't make any difference. Buf Fuck was he looking forward to having a kid with her. It was nothing he had considered until this moment. The idea of having a kid thrilled him, if it was a girl he hoped she would take
Kira's POVThere is something wrong with me, I know it, and it's not only fever, Asher had done his best to cover whatever the issue was. I knew that the Doctor had examined me, and whatever he told Asher must have been important to have him acting like a shadow around me all the time. JHe basically stayed with me all day, sometimes he even brought his paperwork to my room to sort out. The only time he wasn't around me was when he had to attend court, but even those times he would put nearly a dozen guards outside my room and several maids to keep me company. It was like he was afraid I would run away or something.It's not like I had anywhere to run to. There is no pack in the entire kingdom that would take me in. They all knew I was Asher's little infatuation, and only those in the palace knew how cruel Asher was once you touched his stuff. He was a possessive asshole who was willing to do whatever it took to achieve his goal. He had successfully taken the throne, now it seemed he w
" What the fuck did you say to me?!"" I said that you are the real Monster here! Even though you are a Beta!" Elena knows very well how much he hates being reminded of his identity. To Asher, this was his one weakness, the fact that he was a Beta while his brother who he loves with all his heart was an Alpha. When he hears Elena saying this, he doesn't hesitate to reach out and wring her by the neck. She started choking, and she struggled to set herself free" Here I am doing my best to let you live bitch! Yet you keep testing my patience. Do you think I won't kill you?"" W...what difference does it make "" Fuck He " He tosses her away and she falls to the group. Elena struggled to catch her breath" I see a dark cloud looming over you. Even if you have everything you want, you will never be happy! That's your destiny "" Well, since you are not the fucking priestess, I have no reason to listen to whatever shut you say! "Asher tells her to get lost and Elena is too frightened to d
Asher goes to see Kira, he intends to take her back to the pack. Now that he is certain that his brother wouldn't come back for her, he has no reason to leave her with Sebastian after knowing that his cousin was simply going to continue sleeping with her until he got tired of her and found something new to play with.What he did not expect was Sebastian unwilling to let her go. Asher doesn't know whether to feel amazed or simply irritated at Sebastian for refusing to let the woman go even as Asher promised to give him more women in exchange." What is this new infatuation? "" It's not an infatuation. I just feel very guilty letting her go after I...broke her"" What do you mean you broke her?" Asher asked with narrowed eyes. Sebastian gives him a nervous loom before leading him towards the room where Kira was kept. Asher could hardly recognize the woman when he saw her. His cousin had clearly done his best to keep her well taken off, because unlike the rest of his pets, Sebastian act
Sebastian rises to his feet and leaves the room. Only the sound of my cries echo through the empty room. My decision was already made, I could never see Killian die, however when I thought of how heartbroken he would be, it made me have cold feet. He has already lost the kingdom, and now he was going to think I abandoned him.Sebastian received word that Killian had found their whereabouts later that day. He had laughed out in delight as he dragged Kira to the border of the village where they would await Killian. At this point, Kira looked like a ghost of herself, she had cried so much that her eyes were puffy. She knew what was expected of her and while she wasn't looking forward to breaking Killian's heart, she knew she had no choice but to do as she was told." Aren't you excited? '' Sebatain whispered into her ears. His hands made their way around her waist and he drew her close to his chest. The bastard was getting aroused, and Kira wanted nothing more than to punch him on his st
Kira's POV" Good morning sleeping beauty?"Sebastian was kneeling by the side of my bed when I woke up. I was startled at the sight of him. " What is it?"" Aw, there's no need to act so grumpy. I am very happy today, so I figured I would treat you to some delicious food I prepared myself "' He's planning to poison me '" Don't give me that look " Sebastian always seemed to know exactly what I was thinking. " If I wanted to kill you, I would have simply fucked you to that. Now clean up quickly, I'll be waiting outside "I watched him leave with a disgusted expression etched on my face. I didn't want to entertain that bastard, but I also didn't want to make him angry. The last thing I would want was for him to try to rape me again. Groggily, I got up from the bed and went to the bathroom to clean up, even though Sebastian had asked me to be quick, he didn't come to Check on me even as I took much more time than necessary to get ready. He was talking with his Beta when I walked out of
The Priestess doesn't say anything. Her stony gaze is fixed on me, I have never seen her like this before. Even though she was always a distant person, she had treated me with respect in the past, now it seemed she had lost every good feeling for me. The whole court was filled with silence, as I looked at the people in the room, none of them met my gaze. They kept their heads low, however I felt that they were scunning me. If they hadn't agreed to what the Priestess had to say, they would have objected.Even my father wasn't saying anything. A bitter laugh escaped me. " You had this all figured out, didn't you? Even my father was part of this "" Killian, I..."" I don't want to hear it " I glared at the man. " If you have no intention of standing by my side then don't bother giving me your useless excuses. What the fuck now! Priestess, do you intend on ruling the kingdom yourself? With all this bullshit you're spouting, one would think you would make a better king "" Not her " Asher
Killian's POVWe've been searching through the forest for hours, yet our search wasn't as successful as I would have liked it to be. We found some evidence that the Rogues had been here, not long ago even. Yet it wasn't enough to pinpoint where exactly they had gone next. I felt not frustrated and hopeful at the same time, it would only be a matter of time before I found Kira, but I had no idea what state she would be in. What if she had been taken advantage of? How would I ever be able to forgive myself for not protecting her?" Alpha, we need to return back to the palace for now, the council would like to at least be informed of how the sear is going. We can continue tomorrow "I nodded at the better. He was one of Liam's men and had specially been trained to fulfil my every command. I would have preferred it if we continued the search, but I couldn't be that ignorant of my men's wellbeing. They had been working all day and they needed rest. We drove back to the palace. The moment I
