The Despicable Lycan King's Forsaken Luna 44. This Is Not Goodbye
★ELAINE'S POV★“You are an asshole!” I spat at his face before rushing back into the infirmary. The moment my eyes fell on Tania, a wave of emotions swept through me all over again. Her lips had turned stale blue and her face was pale white. Taking her hands in mine, tears trickled down my cheeks. “Don't worry, Tania. I will take care of you, myself. Just hang in there. You have to be strong for me okay, you have to fight." I breathed. My tears dropped on her face. I turned to leave to fetch medications myself. But then, I felt Tania hold me back. Instantly, I snapped my head back to her face. She smiled weakly at me, and I could not stop crying. How can she be smiling in this pitiful condition? I know she's hurting, and I don't expect her to hide it from me. Her smile widened. “You are so pretty when you cry, Elaine. But I don't like seeing these tears,” she said in a feeble tone. I managed a small smile. “Stop talking, Tania. You need to reserve your energy to fight, okay? I w
The Despicable Lycan King's Forsaken Luna 45. Better Days Behind
★ELAINE'S POV★"No!!" I yelled at the top of my lungs while gathering Tania's defunct body to my chest."She cannot be dead. We were talking just now and I ask her to get some rest. So how can she die?" Hot tears streamed shamelessly down my cheeks. My heart clenched in anguish and no amount of words can explain the agony coursing through my veins. "Luna...I am so sor-""Shut your trap!" I rebuffed her instantly. "It is all your fault. Tania was suffering right here and none of you made a move to help her. You killed the only family I had left!" My voice cracked with tears. "No, Luna. The poison was already ingested into her system. It tempered with her pretty badly. It was the same as the one used on the female omega that died during the court trial." The physician informed me. My heart skipped a beat. For a moment, I looked from Tania to the physician's face. The same poison? It was then my mind began to connect the missing dots. If it was the same poison, meaning the omega q
The Despicable Lycan King's Forsaken Luna 46. Truth Hurts
★ELAINE'S POV★{Two days later}“Aww.” I groaned weakly as I fluttered my eyelids open. Suddenly Tania was staring back at me with the brightest smile on her face.I returned the smile. “Tania?” She dabbed my face with the wet towel in her hands and said; “Thank goodness...you are finally awake. I missed you so much.” But that voice didn't sound like Tania's. It was— Beta Adrian. For a moment, my vision blurred and a wave of nausea swept through me. Nonetheless, Beta Adrian helped me to a sitting position, then tucked a pillow to support my back. “Why are you the one doing this? Where is Tania?" I asked weakly. He issued me that blank stare, then his eyes fell on my wrist. I followed his gaze to see the bandage wrapped around it. Alas, the memories of everything that happened came crashing down all at once. Dammit, it wasn't a dream! I was about to tell him that I had a very disturbing dream about Tania, but it wasn't a fucking dream! My Tania was no more. “No.” My voice crack
The Despicable Lycan King's Forsaken Luna 47. New Beginning
★ELAINE'S POV★{One month later}“My Lady, please come to the dining and eat something. You haven't had anything for days and soon it would take a toll on your health.” My new maid, Amy pleaded with me through the door. For days, even weeks... I remained in my dark chambers, not wanting to see the sunlight. Deep down, I don't want to accept the fact that each day was passing by, yet, there was no longer Tania. Alas, when I managed to get out of my chambers, it was mostly at dusk and I head straight to Tania's grave to speak with her for hours. This attitude of mine has persisted for one month now. Not that I was proud of it, but I just wanted my friend and sister back. I had no control over my emotions. Piece by piece, I could feel myself slipping away. Amy knocked on the door continuously, hoping to get me to respond. But I didn't. “Go away, I am not hungry!” I raised my voice at her and then the incessant knocks ceased. A couple of minutes later, I heard my doorknob rattled and
The Despicable Lycan King's Forsaken Luna 48. Training Sessions
★ELAINE'S POV★“How do you place your bow?!”“At arm's length!” I replied, steadying the bow within my fingers as I kept my focus on the target. “How do you shoot your target?” He demanded this time. I inhaled deeply. “Aim, focus, and shoot!” the arrow went flying through the air until it eventually landed in the bull's eye. “Impressive.” He smirked. Looking around quickly before placing a soft feathery kiss on my forehead. For hours, we have been outside, training how to shoot arrows at targets. At first, I wasn't willing to participate in the Alpha Female competition, but after the whole incident of Tania's death, I became more determined than ever. I didn't have anything to prove then, but now I do. I no longer wanted to be that same weak, pathetic Elaine going around feeling sorry for herself. I no longer wanted to be that same girl dwelling in the past. I no longer wanted to hold on to mistakes and regrets. Starting from now, I'd become that girl who'd prove herself worthy
The Despicable Lycan King's Forsaken Luna 49. Torture & Truth
★BETA ADRIAN'S POV★{Several weeks later}“I am tired.” Elaine sat on the floor after switching back from her wolf form. Beads of sweat clustered her brows, while the rest ran in a rivulet down her body. I just finished guiding her to learn to run fast and climb tall oak trees in the blink of an eye. Alas, her body must be exhausted from all the training. “Alright then.” I picked up her gown from the prolonged tree branch and slipped it over her head, covering her naked body. A hard gulp forced its way down my throat as I tried not to take her right here, and right now. She has been training for weeks. Much more that I'm proud to say she'd make a great warrior and fight her way out of any situation. My Omega, Gaius came over and whispered something into my ear and I issued him an affirmative nod. “Alright, I'll be there in a moment.” Elaine cast me a questioning look. Then her gaze drifted from me to Gaius, then back to me as she asked. “Are you going somewhere?” I shook my hea
The Despicable Lycan King's Forsaken Luna 50. Deliver Us From Evil
★BETA ADRIAN'S POV★“Finish him!” I said to Gaius before sauntering out of the cell block. “Please Beta!” Elias yelled at the top of his lungs. “Please spare my life, I have a family. ”Despite his pleas, I didn't turn back. Instead, I kept on walking. He should have considered the fact that he had a family before making a business out of selling poison. How can you profit from other people's pain, grief, and sadness? I could not imagine the number of people that died from those poisons. Even if he didn't administer it to them directly. He was solely responsible! Stella died in the cell, Alanna died in court, and Tania died at the infirmary. All of them went through an agonizing, excruciating pain before dying. They didn't deserve it. Neither of them did. And for Gamma Genevieve, what? How? Why? What warranted such a despicable action? “No!” Elias's voice echoed through the four walls of the dungeon. Then silence followed soon after. He was dead and gone. I hope he rots in hell
The Despicable Lycan King's Forsaken Luna 51. Reconnecting The Dots.
★ELAINE'S POV★I had finished packing with the help of Amy, so I went to the dining table to have dinner, then sleep and prepare for the journey tomorrow. In the dining, Amy was the one serving me herself. Since Tania died and she became my maid, I noticed she was extremely careful with everything she does. If I was about to go somewhere, she'd follow behind me, scrutinizing every direction for danger. If I was about to taste anything, she tasted it first. I liked that she was looking after me. But still, no one can replace Tania in my heart. The atmosphere surrounding the dining table was gloomy. Alpha Damon sat across the table while Beta Adrian took his position at my far right. I noticed no one was speaking and a part of me began to wonder if something happened earlier. Was there something Adrian wasn't telling me? I thought. Pressing my lips together into a grim line, I didn't utter a word. Perhaps, they had something bothering them in their respective ways. But then, Alpha

The Despicable Lycan King's Forsaken Luna 92. Is This The End?
★ALPHA DAMON'S POV★Inhaling deeply, I took a step forward to face Donovan. Fine, I believed he has every reason to be angry with me. Just because he found love with my maid, I humiliated him in front of the pack and almost ended his life. Not only that, I ripped him off the Delta title and banished him from my pack. So yes, he had every right to stay mad at me. “Donovan..." I started. “I didn't mean to come into your house unannounced. And I must add that what you guys have here is beautiful.” “Thank you for making us realize that we are worth so much more." He sneered back. I slowly nod, feeling quite guilty for making hasty decisions without giving it a second thought. But it has already happened. The past can't be changed, yet I could make amends. Taking in another breath, I looked squarely at Donovan before speaking again: “The Delta position has been vacant for so long. What do you say about taking over again? I think it really suits you better.”A faint smile became visibl
The Despicable Lycan King's Forsaken Luna 91. No Matter What
★ELAINE'S POV★†Five Months Later†“Touch your mouth." I requested with a smile as I addressed Ashley's one-year-old daughter, Marianne. Alas, she brought her tiny fingers to her lips. “Very good." I commended. “Now, show me your nose." “My nuhsee." She cooed before touching her well-defined small nose. I smiled again in delight. “That's my girl.” Ashley and her husband, Donovan went to the farm, leaving Marianne in my care seeing as I couldn't do any arduous tasks in my state. In truth, they've been supportive and accommodating since the moment I arrived. Ashley was very excited when she found out I was pregnant with a pup, and without judgment, she continuously lectured me about the journey of motherhood. Also, she helped me forget my plight with the Lycanfrost pack in a hurry. Days turned into months, and I found myself getting over the miseries. I was able to wield the courage to acknowledge that my pup doesn't have a father. So I'd have to be his father and mother, train h
The Despicable Lycan King's Forsaken Luna 90. Unlucky, yet Lucky
★ELAINE★“Why don't you let me go with you, my Lady?" Amy queried apprehensively. I shook my head in refusal for the umpteenth time. “Thank you for helping me pack my luggage, but I'll be fine on my own. I can't subject you to living the kind of life I choose to live.” Having said that, I assisted myself onto the horse's back and grasped its rein tightly between my fist. “This is goodbye, Amy,” I said to her trying not to sound heartbroken. “Thank you for everything you have done for me. Thank you for looking after me up until this moment. You can have your life back now.” “But I have never—” Not letting her complete her statement, I kicked the horse, spurring it to start moving and it instantly started galloping before increasing its pace. Although, riding horses wasn't good for my pregnant state. I had no other choice. I knew I had to be stronger now, not just for myself alone. My unborn pup is inclusive.Once, I turned my head to look at the Lycanfrost pack as I drew further
The Despicable Lycan King's Forsaken Luna 89. Outcast
★ELAINE★“Ow!” My eyelids flutter open with an inaudible groan. It felt like my whole body was rammed against the wall and my head ached so badly. At first, my vision was blurry but little by little, I was starting to adjust to my surroundings, acknowledging that I was now in my chamber. Pulling myself to a sitting position, I saw Gina seated at the foot of the bed, breastfeeding her baby. “Hey, Gina,” I called softly but she didn't respond. “Gina,” I called again, thinking she didn't hear me the first time. Yet, she didn't respond. Making my voice a little louder, I called for the third time. “Gina!" “What?" She yelled back at me and my mouth dropped open in shock. “Why are you disturbing me, Elaine? Of course, I heard you the first, second, and third time. I am not DEAF!” She stressed out the word for me and I couldn't believe my ears. Gina has never reacted in such a manner towards me before. What could be the.....It was then memories of everything that happened before
The Despicable Lycan King's Forsaken Luna 88. Upturned Reality
★ALPHA DAMON★“I- I d-on't understand.” Elaine stuttered, taking two steps back, away from me. The fit of rage burning through my veins was indescribable. I felt like snagging her neck like a twig for doing something this ludicrous to me. My Beta and my Luna? For fuck sake, I have never felt so disrespected until I discovered this has been going on right under my nose for quite a while. “How long have you been sleeping with Adrian?!” I bellowed angrily, making her flinch on her spot. Yet I didn't feel any remorseful about it. “I-it's not what you think, Alph—”“—Then tell me what I'm supposed to think!” I fired back. Not letting her finish her statement. Damn! The angst of being betrayed by the people you once cherished was quite overwhelming. My eyes wandered to Adrian, whose head hung low and hasn't said a word since. Then I returned my glare to Elaine. “You better start talking!” Just then she broke down in tears and went to her knees immediately. “It's not what you think,
The Despicable Lycan King's Forsaken Luna 87. Finally out
★ELAINE★“You are an animal! A fucking psychopath!” I cussed angrily at him. “What did I do, Elai—” Beta Adrian tried to touch me, but I yanked my arm out of his reach. “Don't fucking touch me with those filthy, bloody hands!” I shrieked. “You can't just keep cussing me out, Elaine. If there is something I did wrong, tell me. I won't hesitate to apologize to you, you know that right?" His voice sounded apologetic and warm. If I wasn't aware of his heinous past, I would have thought he was the same saint I fell in love with. The Beta that swept me right off my feet from the very moment I came to this pack. The kindhearted, warm, and loving Beta Adrian. But he isn't anymore. He is nothing but a psychotic asshole! Staring at him blankly for a couple of seconds, I was still trying to wrap my head around how gruesome he could be. Such malicious acts on poor innocent children could never justify his quest for bloodthirsty revenge. The sound of their wails as the blade sliced throug
The Despicable Lycan King's Forsaken Luna 86. Sad Birthday To You
★ELAINE★I remained in my spot with tears pouring down my cheeks. All these while, I have been living a lie with Beta Adrian. He made me fall in love with him. He made me find solace in him. He made me wish I was never with Alpha Damon in the first place. Yet, he was this cruel? Although Alpha Damon had his dark past, he wasn't as grievous as Beta Adrian. My head was spinning out of its axis and I was struggling to breathe. “What is going on here?" Lady Gina walked into the room, looking from me to Tara and then back to me. Not wanting to say anything, I wiped the tears away from the corner of my eyes. “It is nothing. Tara and I were just going down memory lane. We were reflecting on our past and how far we've come." "Oh!" Lady Gina flashed a bright grin at us. “Everyone has a story. Tara, would you like to hear mine after the party?" Tara shakily responded with a nod. “Yes, I will." “Okay, good...but first, we have to prepare the celebrant for the party.” She whisked me back
The Despicable Lycan King's Forsaken Luna 85. Disclosed
★ELAINE★A wave of shock swept through my entire body. Feeling the colors drain from my cheeks, I readjusted myself on the chair and asked; “What do you mean?" Tara took my hand in hers, then pulled me towards the bed and I went, unresisting. My heart was thumping rapidly against my chest. At this rate, it might as well jump right out. Was this the secret Tania mentioned to me that night? I thought to myself and as much as I hoped whatever Tara was going to say would not hurt me. My gut feeling told me it would. “I don't get it, please explain.” “Do you remember when I thanked you for rescuing me, I made a statement that if I had returned to the pack, they would kill me without a second thought because I don't belong there." Nodding my head hastily, I urged her to continue. “Good. I am originally from the silver moon pack." My mind began to race faster than usual. I was struggling to couple up my scattered thoughts together. If I could remember, Beta Adrian had once told me t
The Despicable Lycan King's Forsaken Luna 84. Another Truth.
★ELAINE★★FOURS DAYS LATER★Seconds rolled into minutes. Minutes into an hour, and hour into days. Soon four days had passed by in a jiffy. I lay fully awake on the bed, but my eyes remained closed. I could not believe that I was finally turning nineteen today. Indeed, that soothsayer was right. A lot has happened since we last spoke and everything she predicted, unfolded right after the other. Today is the day I promised Gina to disclose the news about my pregnancy to Alpha Damon. Yet, I didn't know if I was ready. Would I ever be? I asked myself. Gina hummed softly, whilst folding some of her baby's laundry. Very soon, my baby bump would become visible and there would be no hiding it from the rest of the world. A part of me felt I ought to be grateful that Alpha Damon happened to be the father of my unborn baby. If he wasn't, I didn't want to imagine the catastrophe that would unfold later on. Something soft touched down on my forehead, his scent filling my nostrils at once.
