The King's Rebel Chapter 41
I couldn't believe what I was seeing as I watched the lycan catch his breath and then brush the snow off his long hair and thick animal skin coat."Why did you want to see me?" Next, I asked him a question while narrowing my eyes at him. I still had my sword in my hand and was sitting up straight, so I could hit him if he tried to do something funny."I just wanted to check on you and make sure everything was okay. Where's the problem?" After he cleaned up the snow, he asked me to come back. His loose hair hung over his forehead while he tied a big bun out of his dreadlocks. I sat there and watched him do his small grooming routine. As he worked on his hair, my wolf was already noticing how his muscles moved. I thought I had seen him do that before.I wasn't going to just believe that. Why would the king of all chauvinists travel through the mountains in the dark during a snowstorm to see a she-wolf that he would never consider his equal? I knew that he had a strong reason for coming

Athena's POV"Let's find out what's going on with the river," I said as I looked down at the river running through the valley. If you listened closely, you could just barely hear the sound of the river water over the low whistling of the northern air.As I listened to the sound of water, everything seemed to go quiet all at once. This made me a little confused, but when I looked over my shoulder, I saw my wolves looking at me with a mix of fear and confusion on their faces."What's going on?" I wanted to know. A few minutes ago, they were all talking, but now everyone was quiet."Are we headed for the river?" One wolf was brave enough to ask.I told him, "Of course we are," and there was another moment of silence."But we were told not to go there,""You've been working for me for more than a couple of weeks. You should have figured out by now that I don't really care about the Emperor "I let them know. Some of them swallowed, and some of them nervously nodded at me."We're going dow
The King's Rebel Chapter 43
Athena's POVWe saw a group of Drakonians in the distance trying to shoot at what looked like a strange creature climbing out of the river. I tried to move forward to get a better look at what that thing was, but Lucian had his fingers tightly wrapped around my arm to keep me moving forward. I tried to free my arm, but he gave me an angry look, so I decided to keep my mouth shut for now."What's it?" I whispered in surprise as I looked at the thing that was chasing the drakonians northeastward."That's a Cephylon," he said in a whisper, keeping his eyes on the Drakonians as they ran away. "Once it gets a hold of you, it will drag you back to its nest and feed you to its young,"""Wow, they sound like a lot of fun! Trust me, "Lucian gave me another angry look, which I chose to ignore. "We need to go back a mile or climb higher to set up camp because it looks like we've gotten very close to them," he said next, looking back at the horizon where the Drakonians had disappeared."There's n

"Athena, listen to me or..." He stopped talking as his eyes got deeper into me. I wasn't going to give up so quickly, of course.I had to find out what was in the river that was making him so upset. If he didn't want me to go into the river, he would have to tell me what was there."Otherwise?" I growled and gave him a hard look. In an instant, the whites of his eyes turned black as night. Near his eye sockets, veins started to show up, and a bloodthirsty look crept up on his face.No more threats or warnings were given. He just did it, and he did it quickly.Just a moment ago, he was standing in front of me, but in the blink of an eye, he had me on the ground and his lips were on mine.When his lips hit mine like a meteor, a strong wave of sparks went all over my body and shook everything inside me. The way his hot lips moved against mine was painful.The worst part was that my body had already started to react to him without asking the rational part of my brain for permission. I tri

Athena's POV"Not far enough?" I was so surprised that I had to ask him questions. When I heard him say that, I was about to lose it. I looked at him, expecting an answer but he remained quiet. "Tell me Lucian what did you do? Did you kill your family for the throne too? I want to know,""You don't have to know. You'll hate me," He returned."What makes you think that I don't hate you already?" I asked pointedly. My words seemed to have fuelled something dangerous in his eyes."So you hate me?" He questioned darkly."Why wouldn't I?""It's very childish to hate someone just because they called you ugly. I didn't even mean-" I interrupted him with a growl. Just his blatancy and obnoxiousness were enough to hate him. He didn't need to open his mouth to say something or do something to make one hate him.One didn't need to have a particular reason to hate him. His simple existence was enough for one to hate him but the mate bond and the wolf in me strongly disagreed with this. I guess I
The King's Rebel Chapter 46
Athena's POVLucian wasn't happy when he heard about our plan to use the tunnel to get closer to the Drakonians. Of course, I wasn't shocked.Instead, he and Amoux came up with a much riskier and more time-consuming plan: they would hike around the mountains and sneak up on them at night.There was a disagreement about plans that lasted almost half a day and took up a lot of our time. I couldn't stand it because they kept putting me and Lua down.After arguing and making threats at each other for a long time, we finally came up with a new plan that was kind of a mix of the two.Our troops were split into two groups. One would follow me into the tunnel, and the other would go around the mountain where the Drakonian camp was. To keep an eye on the Drakons while climbing, the second one would have to stay at a certain height.This time, Lucian and Amoux were on a different team, which was lucky for me because I think I would have gone crazy if he had been on my team. In the past few days
The King's Rebel Chapter 47
Lucian's POVI knew there was something wrong.Something didn't feel right. Very, very wrong."What's that?" As soon as I stopped moving, Amoux asked me right away. We were halfway across the mountain, and it was hard to move forward because the wind was coming from right in front of us and pushing us back two steps for every three steps we took forward.I told my lycan to stop and listened to what he had to say. He became very antsy all of a sudden, and I thought of Athena right away. My heart raced. I tightened my teeth and jaw.I should have accompanied her!I should have gone with her. It would have been easier because, with every step, I was wondering what was going on in the tunnels. Even though I looked calm on the outside, I was sick inside from worrying about her."What did you hear?" Tyrfon's question came out of nowhere. Even though it was hard to hear anything over the loud wind, I was sure I heard it before the mountain moved. The sound kept getting louder until it was lo

"I don't think it would be smart," The pairer groaned as she watched Eros and Phyil dig in the snow from a distance. Aphrodite was sitting next to her, and she looked more excited than she should have."So what?" Aphrodite looked upset."What if she hurts herself badly?" Fowol inquired.Aphrodite said, "No, she wouldn't." "Trust me on this one," she said as she rubbed her hands together and looked at the huge pile of snow that was being dug up."I'm still not quite sure about this,""You don't have to be," Aphrodite said as she rolled her eyes and watched the two dig deeper."Does this sound good?" Wiping his sweat, Phyil asked. When she heard this, Aphrodite got off the rock and went to see what they had found.She said, "Perfect!"Fowol told Aphrodite, "I want you to think about this again.""I've given it a lot of thought, and I'm sure this is the best way to make the brute move,""What if this doesn't work? What will he think if he finds out we did this? He'd hang us!" Fowol tried

Athena’s POVWhen Atti saw me coming toward our camp, she gave me a whistle. Her eyes went all over my body before she gave me a sly grin. I gave her a friendly glare in return. I had just changed back into a human, so I was completely naked and shivering in the cold.When I got closer to her, she said, "Oh, look who's back!" She took off her coat right away and gave it to me."Since I went missing, I need you to keep me up to date on everything. I need to catch up quickly, "I told her to do something, and she did it right away. While Atti got all the papers together, I sat down in one of the tents and ate hot soup and breakfast.After I finished eating, the two of us sat down to talk about everything that happened while I was gone. While I was gone, nothing very interesting happened. All they did was get ready for a possible war and figure out how to stay alive in this bad weather.Atti said, "I think we should go back. Our work here is, more or less, done."I told her, "Not yet.""W
The King's Rebel Chapter 59
Lucian’s POVAs she walked out of the camp and swayed her hips from side to side, my eyes burned on her back. I didn't know if this was just how she walked or if she did it on purpose. Maybe it was that stupid dress, which fit her like a second skin and didn't leave much room for my imagination. Whenever I saw her in that thing, it made my hands itch and my inner lycan stir.I kept an eye on her until she left the camp. As soon as I couldn't see her anymore, I went to the Drakkon camp. It was quiet, and no one could be seen. After a long night of celebrating their victory over the Valley, everyone seemed to be asleep. They didn't know that this was just the beginning.Half of what I had planned seemed to go well here. Now, I had to put the second half of my plan into action. This part was a lot more difficult and had to be done right. We couldn't make a mistake. If we made a mistake, it would only set us back.When I went inside, my lycans were already there. For now, I had left the w

Athena’s POVEveryone was cheering around me as I stared with wide eyes at the huge sculpture. I knew right away what it was. This couldn't have happened by accident.I looked at the Drakkon King and a few of the people on his council. They were already laughing and joking around when they noticed that one of the horse's eyes moved just a little bit.I was only looking at the horse while the Drakkon king talked about his bravery and how he was better than the Lycan king, which led him to finally ask for a treaty. His speech kept going on and on, and he kept bragging about himself.Everyone in the camp was blinded, but they kept cheering for the Drakkon King as he kept talking."Tonight, we need to have a party to celebrate this victory! We now own the valley." He said it, and everyone in the crowd around me cheered and again praised the Drakkon King.After the King's speech, the war preparations that had been going on for the past day stopped right away. Instead of getting ready for w

"Ruel, please be mine," the king moaned as he tried to kiss me for the tenth time. I'm finding it harder and harder to stay away from you "He sighed. I was eating quickly because I wanted to finish dinner quickly so I could go back to my tent. I was done with that Drakkon king.I told him, "I have a price, and if you don't want to pay it, you can't have me." I crossed my hands on my chest and leaned back. At this point, the Drakkon king was so annoying that I wanted to hit him.He was getting weaker and weaker.He stopped moving for a moment. Before he snapped out of it and looked at me with much more determination, his face took on a strange look.He grabbed my face and growled out of the blue "Ruel, I'll take you. You will soon be mine, "The next thing I knew, his lips were right on mine. I was shocked out of the blue. I growled at him and tried to push him away, but it didn't look like he was going to let me go.As he kissed me more, I looked for a fork and stuck him in the thigh w

Athena's POVThe next day, I started being more cautious.The seal had been altered because the King now had confirmation that there were fake orders being passed around the camp in an effort to confuse the troops.After stealing one of the new seals in just half a day, I immediately went around issuing additional orders to further destabilize the camp. Now, everyone was utterly perplexed. The troops' plans for patrolling and other activities were currently disorganized, which made them weaker.The looks on their faces were just priceless, and I was enjoying this more than I probably should have. Rednor and I ran into each other several times. Each time, he tried to corner me, but I always found a way to get away.I didn't have much trouble duping the Drakkons. After all, I was a wolf, and my senses were much more acute than theirs. The Drakkons' size was the only advantage they had over me, but as long as I kept my head down and played with the king, that wasn't a problem for me. The

Athena's POV"Ruel!" As soon as Kine seen me, she gasped. I stood there like a statue, staring at Kine and Rednor with wide eyes. My mind was already planning the time and the movements I would need to make to kill them both in a record-breaking amount of time without alerting the camp, and one of my hands was hovering above the dagger hidden beneath my dress.At this moment, I could hear my heart beating in my chest. I vowed to castrate Lucian if things went south at this point.After all, His Harem could use an additional eunuch."Ruel, what happened? Are you okay?" As she got closer, Kine questioned me. I instantly looked around the tent and discovered that there was absolutely no sign of Lucian. Although I exhaled in relief, the expression on Rednor's face slightly worried me."I'm fine, I'm OK. What happened?" I prompted her."When I heard noises coming from this tent, I was just passing by it. It sounded to me as though someone was putting pressure on you. I immediately sped to

Athena's POVI snarled at him as soon as he removed his hand from my lips, "You cunning son of a bastard," but I was pinned against the medicine boxes that were staked against each other in the next split second, so I was unable to finish my sentence. He slammed his body into mine, pinning me with his hips as he grabbed my neck to make me look at him.Why do I notice his scent on you? He gave me a growl. I could see the inferno burning in his glowing, in the dark eyes. My spine tingled, and. His hot breath brushed my lips as his face was mere centimeters from mine.I held his stare regally despite the fact that the force emanating from his body would have made any other wolf whimper and quickly succumb.Identify yourself. I dared to ask him, which infuriated him beyond belief. If I had any doubts that he could approach me any closer after this, he proved me incorrect categorically by reaching closer to me and rubbing his body on mine. At this time, our lips were almost in contact.He

Athena's POVThe following evening, I had dinner with the king of Drakkon. We were both eating dinner and conversing in his own tent. He had already attempted to kiss me five times by this point. Both he and I were becoming more and more forceful in our attempts to kiss each other at this point.Why wouldn't you permit a kiss from me? He asked me once while displaying a really angry expression. He tried everything, including complimenting me and showering me with presents, but I steadfastly refused to even hint at having feelings for him. Even yet, I maintained my pleasant demeanor the entire time, which made it more difficult for him to treat me harshly."If you made me your wife, I would let you kiss me. Couples who kiss prior to marriage are considered sinners in our tribe, and you know how seriously I regard such traditions, "I pouted and gave him a very innocent expression, which made him even more irrational.He was tensely pacing near me, and I could feel it."Since you're no l
The King's Rebel Chapter 52
Athena's POVWhen he saw me right before dinner, the king of Drakkons said, "You look lovely in that dress." I was not blind to the way his gaze swept over every inch of my body while he did so.My wolf was internally appalled by it. She and I didn't want to do anything with him, but I gave him a beautiful grin anyhow since I wanted to keep my head on my neck for the rest of the day.I said, "Thank you," in a soft voice. "Your wife handed me her most fashionable clothes,"He responded with a flare in his eyes and then said to me, When we return to my kingdom, you'll be given a private chamber with gorgeous gowns and jewelry, He bragged. I wasn't sure how much of what he said was true, but I didn't care because I wasn't going to his palace any time soon.I grinned, "That sounds fantastic." I faked excitement and said, "I cannot wait to see your palace and find out what it's like.""You would adore it, my love. I can assure you that "Before extending his hand and escorting me to where d
