The Hated Mate (Lycan and his Lover Book 2) Out in the Desert (6)
Timur strolls through the lavish corridor which is illuminated by several silver lights. Unlike the dreary castle of Faika, this one is more lively and bright. The furniture is squeaky clean and the walls are made with the finest white marbles. The throne room is double the size than that of Faika but instead of a throne, there is only a round table with several chairs on the sides. Only two chairs are put in the front. While the chairs look no different than the rest, no one else sits on it because it is reserved for the Emperor and Empress. The Emperor does not care though. He only cares about his country more than a piece of furniture.A dark haired man in his late twenties is standing in the middle of the throne room, waiting for Timur. The diplomat stands in front of the Knight and bows.“Leo!” He greets cheerfully. “How are you doing? And how is Arya?”Leo Romana slightly smiles back. Usually, he has a strict and cold demeanor around others but in fact, he is a very caring pers

The whole clan cheers loudly and loud music begins to play around them. A few people in the crowd push their way towards a large ground where a traditional dance is about to take place. Anna nearly loses her balance when someone accidentally strolls past her but Lavi holds her waist, steadying her.“Thank you,” she mutters, feeling shy. Lavi clears his throat.“Let us get some drinks,” he suggests. Anna nods and follows Lavi, keeping closeby. He does not let go of her as they pass the crowd towards the drinks’ store. Anna can feel the festive vibes around her and for the first time, she wishes she could have seen everything with her own eyes. Lavi seems to have noticed her sadness. He hands her a glass of juice and asks, “What are you thinking about?”“I just wish I could have seen the festival…”He sighs. Grabbing her shoulders, he makes her sit in a corner. “I will describe the festival for you,” he says. Anna is surprised by his gesture but smiles.“There are several colorful sta

Alpha Sloan is glaring at the soldiers who have intruded in their festival. Damien climbs down his horse and approaches the Alpha. He does not bow but looks straight at the man in an authoritative manner.“We are here to catch some criminals who are hiding in your midst,” Damien states. “We can smell their scent here.”“I can assure you that we are not hiding any criminals!” Sloan claims. Behind him, his whole clan starts to gather. Talia is worried for her mate while the pack members are ready to fight if needed. The soldiers or Faika always treated nomad clans badly as if they were rogues. Many nomads were killed or tortured while the female were whisked away and sold off for money. They deeply distrust the empire and will not tolerate their Alpha’s insult.“If you want us to spare you, step aside,” Damien orders. “We are looking for a dual eyed man and a blind woman! They must be hiding here. Step aside otherwise we will not be merciful.”Sloan smirks. “A few soldiers against a fe

Snowflakes are slowly falling from the sky, curtaining the whole forest in white. The trees are slightly swaying in the night breeze while large mountains can be seen in the distance, cold and dark. A full moon is shining in the sky, illuminating the snowy white lands.Along the road, a carriage is being driven by a coachman while several soldiers are trotting on their horses. They are wearing black armor and the atmosphere is somber as if they are in mourning. Even the carriage has been draped in black cloth and inside it, a body is being carried. Ice had been stuffed into the carriage and magically frozen so that the corpse inside does not decompose any time soon.“The Duke wants us to take the Lady straight to the mansion,” one of the soldiers says.“Do we have to mourn? I didn’t like her much anyway,” another soldier groans.“Neither did I but we have to carry out our duties.”There are around five soldiers who are guarding the carriage. They look tired and haggard because of slee

“I am assuming that you two are not friends,” Lavi mutters. Both of them have been tied to trees with silver chains. Lavi is not weak against the metal but the assassin is and he is feeling the burns on his hands as well. Anna is trying her best to wriggle out of the chains but it is nearly impossible. Nine got her good.“We are not!” Anna groans. It is night time and there are guards around them. Lavi cannot use his magic because the fae soldiers have put up strong defense. Moreover, they still do not know what is going on because Nine still did not inform the royal family about them which only makes them more suspicious. “What is going on?” Anna asks. “Do you see anything strange?”“Nothing other than guards…”The guards are drowsy so the duo are speaking in hushed tones. Lavi tries to use his magic again but it is hopeless.“You know, if you had mated with the assassin, you could have easily beaten the filthy fae magic,” Airen says lazily. “Now you are telling me this?” Lavi gro

“WHAT?” Morales exclaims. “She is the lost Princess of Ezealyra?”“This is bad!” Moira adds, feeling exasperated. “Ezealyra is our ally in this war but if they find out that we are chasing their Princess-”“Kill her,” Ras orders. “If only I had known that the Visserion siblings survived! My accursed disciple messed it all up…”“How did they escape?” Morales asks.“The soldiers killed their eldest sibling but the younger ones escaped by distracting the guards,” Ras grits. “My disciple was one of those guards. He wanted to torture the Visserions so he had the two siblings stripped of their scents so that they will be in eternal pain. Only a powerful witch could have broken the spell over them. If the spell over one of the siblings had been broken, the other one will also be freed.”“Then how did they break the curse?” Moira demands.“Alexei Visserion’s mate turns out to be a very powerful witch,” Ras reveals. “She was instrumental in the last war and helped her mate to win. We must kill
The Hated Mate (Lycan and his Lover Book 2) Fire
The little boy’s cheeks are puffed up and his face is turning red as he tries to concentrate. He is trying to picture a red fireball in his mind but it is distorted. No matter how hard he tires, he cannot seem to channel his energy to it. “Concentrate, Lavi,” a gentle voice tells him. “It is hard!” Lavi complains and glances at the woman sitting next to him. She has long, wine colored hair which is shining under the bright sky. Her face exudes an exotic aura but she is sweet with an angelic demeanor. She smiles at him and pinches his cheek. “It is not hard!” Sha laughs. “You just need to focus.” “It is hard,” Lavi murmurs again. He looks down, wondering what he is doing wrong. Failure frustrates him a lot. His mother was very specific that he must concentrate on his feelings but he cannot do so. Every time he closes his eyes, he cannot focus on his inner feelings at all. It is as if his own thoughts are evading him. Maryan sighs at her son. He is such a hardworking child but som
The Hated Mate (Lycan and his Lover Book 2) The Other Witch
In the middle of a large chamber, a crystal chandelier is shining brightly to illuminate the whole place. Sweet smelling lilies are placed around the room in pretty vases while the satin curtains are swaying in the breeze coming from the window.A blonde girl is sitting next to the window, humming to herself. She is around nineteen with an angelic face and bright amber eyes which complement her snowy skin. Her scent is different from the wolves; she is a human witch.The girl cradles her baby bump, smiling to herself but she is also a little anxious. It has been two days since her mate had gone out on an investigation and there has been no news of him.“Your Majesty.”The girl turns around to find her chief lady-in-waiting, Aria, standing there. Aria was once a beautiful girl but a cruel man once inflicted terrible pain on her and scarred her pretty face. Like the blonde girl, Aria is also a human.“Is Alexei back yet?” The blonde girl asks.Aria shakes her head. “I am sorry, Empress,

The Hated Mate (Lycan and his Lover Book 2) Beginning of Forever
When Lavi returned to Faika, Aryan was already waiting for him. In their absence, Aryan was tasked with handling the affairs of the state alongside Charles. There were a lot of disgruntled voices around Lavi’s crowning but Aryan and Charles quelled it all by rooting out all of Morales’ supporters. The remaining Black Jack members were also rounded up and a public trial was held for all to witness.In the trial, all of Morales’ misdeeds were revealed and Moira’s truth was also exposed. The public was shocked but the evidence was too overwhelming. All her magic was exposed, leaving nothing but shock and hatred for the deceased Empress. Lavi instantly went to work. In the following weeks, he barely had any time to spare. He had the treasonous officials executed, worked on fixing the public funds, and improving relations with other countries. The negative opinions are starting to shift but not fully gone so Lavi decides not to have a lavish coronation. Instead, he opts for a simple crown
The Hated Mate (Lycan and his Lover Book 2) Fire and Ash (Conclusion)
*A few minutes ago*Is this death? He wonders.Everywhere around him, he can see only fire and ash but his body is unscathed. The lava is wrapping him in its midst, making it impossible to escape and he does not feel hurt at all. On the contrary, it feels like…home.“Do you get it now, Lavi?” He turns around and smiles to see a beautiful emerald colored dragon with glossy scales and a long neck. The dragon’s tail is very long, almost as long as the mountain of Veneer itself. It is more than a hundred and fifty meters tall with a majestic aura and a commanding presence.“Airen!” Lavi gasps. “You…you are beautiful!”Airen smiles. “You did well, my friend. You protected your mate and released my powers. I am very proud of you!”“What do you mean?”“The prophecy meant for you to raise your dragon by protecting your mate,” Airen deduces. “I did not know it before but the moment the Gatekeeper said that blood must be spilt for the Gods to rise, I knew that you must sacrifice yourself to sa

The creature lets out an ear piercing scream. Everyone tries to cover their ears but the sound is too high and shrill. Nine’s ears are bleeding and she is nearly blown away by the force of the wind when Damien grabs her hand to protect her. He is struggling to hold on to her, the combined force of the sound and wind too much to bear but he does not give up.The others are also trying to stand.“What the hell is that?” Timur gasps.The creature’s feet fall on the ground, crushing anything which comes in its way. Everyone scatters off, trying to avoid falling under the creature’s feet. Timur, Damien, and Nine run with their men, as far away from the creature as possible.“That thing is a God?” Damien yells.“The years of captivity must have turned them like this!” Timur shouts. “They cannot distinguish themselves anymore-”Several soldiers are crumpled under the feet of the Gods. The creature is fast for its size, nearly crushing them. Timur dodges it by inches while Damien and Nine man

SWOOSH!A wave of spells hit the Skelewolves, sending them flying backwards. Damien and Nine, who were nearly buried under the debris of creatures, manage to squeeze out to find Timur and several faes chanting their magic. “Where is the Emperor?” Damien yells.“He has been sent off to find the Empress!” Timur exclaims. “We do not have time!”Several more Skelewolves are attacking them but Timur uses his magic to fend them off. Nine is tired but keeps on cutting down the creatures.“There are too many of them!” She shrieks. “We can’t take them down!”“Do not kill them!” Timur warns. “Injure them but do not kill! They only resurrect when they are killed!”“Yeah well it’s hard not to!” Nine shouts. Damien swishes his sword to injure the creatures. To his surprise, the creatures squeal in pain but do not resurrect. He instantly mind-links with the rest of the army to communicate this. Nine also injures many of them but by then the Skelewoves have multiplied beyond comprehension. There mu

Another fireball hits the Gatekeeper, causing him to let out another earth shattering squeal. This is no ordinary fire but something which can burn the Gods themselves. Lavi aims several flames at him, pushing the Gatekeeper towards the wall. His skin is nearly melting off but the Gatekeeper is still formidable as ever.He growls at Lavi and jumps forward. “Watch out!” Anna shrieks as the creature closes in but Lavi shoots more fire at his chest, throwing him back.“Grrr!” The Gatekeeper snarls. His skin is not healing, the fire burning off the thin hair on its head. Lavi’s face is red with fatigue but he keeps his cool. The creature is not easy to defeat but Lavi is trying to buy time until they can find an escape route. Anna is frantically looking around, hoping to see an exit but the whole place is caged. There is no way out.“Lavi, is there any way to leave?” Anna yells. “How did you get in?”“Roseanne,” Lavi simply says as he hits the creature with another fireball. “Roseanne?

A low growl can be heard in the desolate dungeon. Anna feels goosebumps up her arms and neck, the sound of making her freeze. Even though she is trained, there is something about the growls which is scaring her. It is as if her muscles have gone numb, her brain warped in a twisted fear which cannot be shaken off. Her heart is beating fast, almost bursting out of her chest.“Anna, this is bad,” Thena whispers in her head. “I cannot shift!”“What?”“I cannot shift! The magic in this place is sucking out my energy. Can you not feel it?”Anna can feel it. Her limbs are weak and slow, her reflexes not on their usual alert. The growl is growing louder and louder. A dark shadow is approaching her way, slowly coming to view. Her mouth gapes open in shock.“Oh no,” Anna murmurs.A half wolf, half goat-like creature comes to view. Its eyes are glaring with red beams and a pair of large, curved horns are visible on its head. The torso is of a goat but the teeth are sharp canines. The rest of th

Ras…Anna is staring at the man standing above them. Her eyes are filled with hatred and disgust, her hands wanting to kill him. For how many years has she been planning her revenge? How long was it?The screams of her family members are still haunting her. Their pain, their suffering, and their deaths are like a plague to her, never ending. She can still hear her mother’s cries as she was burned down by the mob. The image of her father’s lifeless body torments her every night, the man who gave up his life to protect her.And Harietta…Her screams will never leave Anna. Her dear sister who suffered a fate worse than death.All because of this man.“Princess Anna Visserion,” Ras greets her with mock politeness. “Welcome to Veneer!”He stretches his hands wide, his lips curved into a smile. Anna growls at him but the Skelewolves are holding her with surprising strength. The lava below her is bubbling and she can hear whispers coming from the ground.“Kill…bleed…kill…”Cassandra is calmly

Moira’s face is contorted in fury and vengeance against the girl in front of her. She is using her magic to beat Anna up, trying to ruin her face. The latter’s face is bashed up but healing slowly. As soon as it heals, Moira beats her up again.Anna does not scream but a smug grin is on her lips. It pains her to think that Lavi is also being tortured but she knows that once he arrives, he will kill Moira with his own hands. The thought of Moira’s death is giving Anna satisfaction. WHACK!Moira hits her again but Anna only laughs.“You are in serious trouble, Empress!” Anna spits at her. “Oh wait…your so-called mate is dead. You are not the Empress anymore-”“SHUT UP!” Moira growls and hits Anna again. Anna falls to the ground, spitting out blood.“I have taken your throne!” Anna taunts her. “I am the Empress now. Lavi is the Emperor. Our children will sit on the throne-”“NOT IF I KILL YOU FIRST!” Moira roars and is about to use her magic to strangle Anna. Cassandra stirs and slowly
