The Alpha's lantern mate 63 Don't kill her
Scarlett My mate was the Alpha of the Black Moonstone pack and with that, he had to abide by the responsibilities his title carried. I wouldn’t let him lose his wolf just because of me. I’ll have to convince Amber to break her spell and free Todd. I was sure that Klaus couldn’t shift since he had lost his connection with Todd which meant that he was feeble. Jenna was sleeping peacefully so I slowly closed the door of her room and was aghast when I saw Marcus standing behind me. “You scared me,” said I as I let out a low sigh of relief. He bowed his head slightly. “Hello from your brand new bodyguard.” I rolled my eyes and started strolling toward the last room on this floor. “You’re dismissed. I can take care of myself.” “I can’t leave you alone when your mate has ordered me to stay with you like your shadow,” he winked at me. “Where are you headed?” Turning my face back, I bit my lips nervously. I had to take his help, I couldn’t track down Amber alone so I decided to tell h

Klaus “They are waiting for you,” Marcus informed me, keeping his head down. His face was the last thing I wanted to see right now, he reminded me of how foolish it was of me to trust him to protect my mate at such a crucial time. “Leave before I kill you,” I muttered in a cold voice before replenishing my glass of whiskey and throwing it down my throat. “At the moment, I couldn’t care less about what you want to do with me. I just care about Letty and she’s abducted by Alex and Harold so we must do as they say,” he dared to reason with me after all that happened. “Thanks to you, Marcus. My mate is not with me but a captive of my enemies,” I said bitterly, reminding him of his own mistake. “When I had specifically told you not to let Letty be near Amber, why the fuck did you let her go in her room?” “It seems like I have to personally come to talk to my son-in-law,” the Alpha King, Harold, said in a deep voice which irritated me to my core. Letting out a deep breath, I calme

Scarlett My eyes opened slowly and I took in my surroundings gradually. The dark room where no trace of the light reached and as I moved my hands to get up from the floor, my skin burned and a loud painful scream left my mouth. Silver. My hands were tied with the silver chains and as I wriggled my wrists to get out of that fucking silver chains, it burned my flesh and caused me excruciating pain. My legs were also tied with the silver ropes and I couldn’t move even slightly from the position I was laying on the floor. The room was completely dark, there was no object or a person my eyes could find. I didn’t want to give up like a weakling, I wanted to fight and rise from the ground to find an escape from here but the silver ropes were making it fatiguing for me. “The bitch,” I cursed Amber beneath my fast-paced breath. I shouldn’t have trusted her. She had abducted me and as far as I could remember, she had gotten help from a strange man who wanted me alive for some ulterior

Scarlett My life had more mystery than novels. One after one, I seemed to have revealed another secret of my life in front of me and I was too astounded to respond to it. Half of me was happy to know that my real mother was alive but half of me was feeling neglected and deceived. Why wasn’t I allowed to know about my life till now? Why did I have to go through this alone? Couldn’t she tell me that I was her daughter when she kept pretending to be the pack doctor all the years long? The way she shifted in her Lycan form left all the pack members dumbstruck and the terror was evident on their faces. I wanted to follow her and fight alongside her but my instincts told me otherwise. The animalistic voice calling out my mother’s name still echoed in my mind, making my hands tremble a bit. If my mom had kept me away from herself and hid my true identity, there must be a solid reason behind that and I shouldn’t let my mother’s sacrifice go in vain. I should trust her. “Luna,” a boy tug

Klaus “Hold her, Marcus. She needs to stay conscious,” Asher’s hurried voice rang in my ears as I slowly gained consciousness back. “The wound is deep. It’ll take at least a week to heal completely,” he said, dressing the wound on my chest. “It’s been four hours already. When will he open his eyes, Asher?” Scarlett asked in a hushed tone. “Amber had said that he’ll have to wake up within five hours,” my father stated to which Asher sighed. “If he didn’t wake up in the next hour, he might go into a coma and for how long, I don’t even know myself. Harold didn’t use only silver, he used Wolfsbane coated sword and as an antibiotic, I have given him Wolfdicine which takes two hours to work but his body is neither showing any sign of adoption of the antibiotic nor Scarlett’s blood sacrifice,” Asher explained everything which I could easily hear but I couldn’t respond to it. My body was unable to move, it seemed like I was paralyzed. My whole body was under scorching heat, every ounce

Scarlett I had never scrupled about my decisions but the man who still had his head bowed to me had made me question my decision. Though his words hurt like hell because I wanted to avenge my father’s death and the apocalypse he brought upon me and my family, this old man had a valid point. They would either end up dead by me for daring to capture my mate or by Samuel for defying his order. My animal was outrageous, the urge to kill that bloody uncle of mine was getting stronger passing by each second. “What am I supposed to do, then? Let Samuel kill my mother, my mate, and me, to protect his claim on the throne?” I uttered through gritted teeth. “I sense a duty toward my people so I can promise you that no innocent blood will be spilled in this feud of the so-called Royals.” “This promise is as futile as your father’s vow to protect his people,” he said withering. “Don’t forget that he was my father and your true Lycan King and Scarlett Lockwood won’t stand still, hearing you

Klaus I floated in the abyss, a realm of hazy consciousness, neither asleep nor awake. Time seemed to slip away, and the pain in my heart remained ever-present, like a relentless tormentor. In the distant echoes of my thoughts, I could sense the presence of voices, but they were muffled and distant, like whispers from another world. ‘Klaus, my love, can you hear me?’ A soft, melodic voice penetrated the darkness, pulling at the tethers of my awareness. It was Scarlett, my mate, calling to me with a voice filled with desperation and love. I struggled to respond, to reach out to her, but my body remained unresponsive, trapped in this agonizing state of paralysis. The burning pain in my heart intensified, a reminder of my helplessness. 'Amber,' Todd's voice trembled with uncertainty. 'She might be our only hope to wake you.' As if in response to Todd's suggestion, I sensed a surge of energy, a presence drawing closer to me. It was Amber, the powerful witch whose abilities had saved m

Scarlett The metallic smell of the blood was getting on my nerves. The dungeons were fucking worst thing that one would see in the Lycan’s kingdom. Everything else was so pretty but the cells were the epitome of the living hell. All the guards and the torturers couldn’t muster the courage to look my mom or me in the eye. They knew what they were doing and they were very well aware of their wrongdoings. As we walked toward the cell, all of the prisoners bowed to us and my mom looked at me with pride in her eyes. “They all were waiting for their true Queen,” my mom said, tears threatening to fall from her eyes. “I’m not going to set all the prisoners free. They must have done some crime to end up in the cell. Not all of them are a threat to Samuel,” I told my mom, clearly not willing to show mercy to the criminals. I would not relish in their pain and wouldn’t torture them mercilessly but I wouldn’t let them pass the crimes they had committed. My mom grabbed my elbow though her w

The Alpha's lantern mate 77 Epilogue
Scarlett“I don’t think that I will be able to attend the ceremony without throwing up again,” I sighed, sitting on the edge of the bed, waiting for Klaus to bring me a lemonade so I would feel better.“Here,” he held the glass and I finished it. “You’re looking so gorgeous, honey.” I looked at my reflection in the mirror again and fixed my hair. The off-shoulder red dress hugged my curves perfectly while the gold necklace and bracelet complimented my outfit. My stylist, hairdresser, and makeup artist went outside after getting me ready because I wanted to be just with my mate.The crowd didn’t make me feel good, I was feeling more nauseous around them. I shouldn’t have eaten that lobster which I didn’t like for dinner last time. “You’re looking the best yourself, too,” I winked at him. His phone started ringing so I got up from the bed, ready to go down.“Finally, Asher’s call for your reports,” he said, shaking his head in relief.Mom and Evelyn entered my room, their lips parted i

Scarlett“Is everything alright?” I asked him after he cut the call. His expressions told me that it wasn’t because he seemed fuming in anger.“I have to leave tomorrow morning for the pack. Mom isn’t doing well, she had a stroke when I challenged Alex to the duel and none of them thought of telling this earlier. Asher has told me now that she is out of danger but I have to see her for myself,” he told me, rubbing his temples as he tried to calm himself down.Placing my head on his shoulder, I held his waist and we walked together to my bed. “We will leave together for our pack, Klaus.”“You’re meeting your family after so long, babe. I can’t take you with me. I will come back to take you with me,” he said with a smile on his face.“No. I can’t stay away from you anymore now,” I pouted. “They can come with us and live at Rachel’s for a while. I’m sure that they would love to come with us.”“As you say, my love,” he kissed my forehead, pulling me closer to his chest and sleeping on the

Klaus“We don’t have enough room here, Alpha Klaus. I hope you don’t mind sharing a room with me,” Liam told me in a stiff voice, glowering at me. I knew that he wasn’t going to let me stay here easily, he was determined to make me run away from here.If he was adamant about making my life hell here, I was intent on proving to him that I was not a coward whom he could scare away. I was determined to change his opinion of me. “You’re going too far, Liam,” Scarlett objected, glaring at her brother as we walked upstairs. Catherine had offered Amber and her mother to come to the palace to live with her for a while till the crowning ceremony was done. Layla was also excited to stay with her friend after so long and I was pretty sure that they had a lot to catch up on.“I have no problem with sharing a room with you,” I told her brother, looking him straight in his eyes.His gaze hardened as he smirked. “That’s great. Let’s have a man-to-man talk, then,” he said coldly before looking at my

Scarlett“Why didn’t she tell me this earlier?” I whispered after hearing from Amber that my mother didn’t have much time left after healing my mate. She didn’t tell me that she was weakening after healing others.“Sasha told me that she wanted you to live happily with me, that’s why she took Asher under her Queen's command to make the potion,” Klaus replied in a low voice, taking my hands in his before adding, “I promise, my love, nothing will happen to her.” Amber had turned her face in the opposite direction, her back facing us, since we shifted back to our human forms. She was murmuring a spell now and soon, we both were dressed and not naked anymore. “I’m sorry but we need to hurry. I can’t let anything happen to her after seeing her condition when she was taken somewhere else by your men,” Amber disclosed, glancing between us and locking her gaze with mine.My eyebrows shot up, my Mom didn’t look that sick when I ordered Damon to take her to the Blood Moon pack. “What do you m

Klaus“Back off,” Alex commanded me, his powerful Alpha aura suffocating me as I tried to fight his command. His aura shouldn’t have affected me, he wasn’t an Alpha yet unless…His golden aura confirmed my doubts and I realized that Harold had fucking stepped down from his position and had made his son the Alpha King privately which should have been a public ceremony.My head was lowering, submitting to him but I fought back his command, grabbing him by the throat which caused me severe pain in my body as he was my King now. Well, hell with that bullshit. There was no way I would accept that piece of shit as my King.I shifted back to my human form to challenge him for the duel. “I, Klaus Nelson, Alpha of the Black Moonstone pack, challenge you-” Before I could finish, Amber came between us, freeing herself from his father’s hold.“No, Klaus. You wouldn’t be able to win against the Alpha King. You’re not the Lycan King yet,” Amber said while raising her hands and summoning her powers b

Scarlett I stood amidst the gathered pack members, my heart pounding loudly in my chest. I had known that attending this ceremony would be a test of my strength, but nothing could have prepared me for what I was about to witness. The atmosphere was charged with tension as Samuel, the power-hungry bastard held my mother captive once again. My mother, the Lycan Queen, was bound and gagged, her eyes filled with a mixture of fear and defiance. Samuel's grip on her was unyielding, and his sinister smile sent shivers down my spine. I still couldn’t comprehend how this happened when all of my people had accepted me as their Queen and pledged their loyalty to me. There must be a snitch who informed him about my mother being here or there was no way that he could find her here. My eyes searched for the culprit who dared to betray me but shock was written all over Damon and Jasper’s faces. They couldn’t betray me when they loathed Samuel, too. “Did you really think that I would trust you?

Klaus “Do you think she will come?” Jenna fixed my crooked tie while I looked into the mirror at my shadow. The Armani suit that my mother brought for me to wear to the ceremony fitted me well. The dark circles beneath my eyes and the beard made me look exhausted. I didn’t hate Amber but it was a relief not to have her around. I was grateful that she chose to get ready for tonight in another room. “We both don’t have any other choice, Jenny,” I clutched my chest and sat on the chair. “You have not healed completely yet, brother. Take rest for a while. We still have a bit of time before the ceremony commences,” My sister patted my shoulder and gave me a glass of water. ‘Alpha, can you come to my house?’ Rachel’s link popped into my head as I gulped the water. ‘Is Scarlett there?’ I asked immediately, my eyes lit with hope. My feisty mate could do anything and now that she had unlocked her powers and true identity, nothing could stop her. ‘No. Queen Catherine has escaped throu
