The LYCAN King’s Mute Omega Chapter 39
Autumn’s POVAs Elara's accusing, heavy question hung in the air, panic shot through me. My head flew, frantically looking for a reasonable justification to help her relax her mistrust. I had to move fast before my slip of the tongue revealed my actual goals."I... I was just guessing," I signed with slightly shaking palms. "I assumed based on a lot of reading on the pack's past..." I trailed off, hoping she wouldn't raise the matter. "But it's not really important if there isn't one," I said, shrugging casually. "I was simply curious."Elara's shoulders released some tension, and her eyes softened. She answered, "Ah, I see," a little smile playing back on her lips. "Your child has a great curiosity. One should have innate curiosity regarding knowledge.Relieved she seemed to have embraced my explanation, I nodded. But I understood I had been fortunate. I have to start exercising more carefully going forward. One more misstep; my cover would be blown."As a matter of fact," Elara said

Autumn’s POVAs I looked at Elara, a cold knot of terror clenched in my gut. Her inquiry loomed large in the air, a silent charge meant to undo my neatly spun dishonesty. My brain flew, looking for a reasonable justification to deflect her mistrust."I'm sorry," I signed fast, hands shaking just a little. "I still find names and titles to be foreign. Naturally, I meant Alpha Mathias.The room fell into a tight quiet as Elara examined me, her eyes fixed in focus. My heart thumping in my chest, the blood rushing in my ears, felt I had gone rather near to exposing my actual identity, therefore breaking the illusion I had diligently created.At last, Elara sighed, and her shoulders relaxed somewhat. "It's understandable," she said softly. "The Shadow Realm pack introduces many new faces and names to learn."Relief came flooding over me. Though I knew I couldn't afford another error, I had just escaped notice. I have to be more alert and more careful. One mistake, and my whole character may

Autumn’s POVMy pregnancy came as a tidal wave, drowning in a sea of uncertainty and anxiety and leaving me gasping for breath. In my mind's eye, Mathias's face—filled with love and expectation—turned from a beautiful mask of allegiance and contempt. Should he find the truth, my carefully put-on facade would fall apart, exposing me.Given their merciless pragmatism, the rogues would not hesitate to kill me should I compromise their intentions. In their game, I was a pawn and a tool towards an aim. And a pawn in pregnancy was a liability, a loose end that needed to be secured.As the awareness sank in, my skin started to flush coldly. Trapped, caught in a web of lies of my own creation. The weight of my secret seemed to be smothering the sumptuous bathroom's walls in on on on. A wordless cry caught in my mute body; panic tore at my throat. I had to act to figure out how to guard my unborn child and me. But specifically, how?Deeply depressed, a spark of an idea emerged from a desperate

Mathias POVI woke up to the soft, steady breathing of my mate, Autumn, lying beside me.There she lay, all wrapped in my sheets, her hair splayed across the pillow, wild and pretty.She looked different from the first time I had seen her; gone was the soft meek girl, and here lay a wild beauty, tussled and turned.The early morning light escaping through the curtains bathed her in a warm glow; it highlighted the delicate features of her face. Her skin flushed in the soft warmth.Autumn looked so peaceful, almost ethereal, and I couldn't help but smile.This was my doing. I closed my eyes to remember the past night. A small frown marred my face when nothing but a dark wall came to mind.“I guess I must be getting old,” I murmured, my voice intentionally lowered not to wake the sleeping woman.Still, I smiled wider, as I told myself it didn't matter if I remembered our first act of love; there would be many more times to do it.Gently, I reached out to caress her hair, my fingers light

Kavan POV“What do you mean, she is not worthy of being queen, Mother?” Mathias growled. “She is my mate, is she not? If not her, who else?”Mathias looked confused at the statement; his eyes searched mine. I could see the confusion, but I couldn't let that stop me.I couldn't make Autumn queen mother; the thought of her in that position with him made me feel unsettled. I couldn't handle the thought of my father touching her.“Father, I understand she is your second chance mate, but you have to understand she is much too young, and there are rules and traditions to be upheld. Autumn, with her many challenges, cannot take up such a responsibility.”Mathais sat across from me at the dining table, his gaze unwavering and stern.His familiar shrewd gaze pierced at me. I remembered a time when I would quack at this assessing gaze, but not today; now that I was Alpha, it was my duty to uphold the balance.Mathais himself had given me that power; now I shouldn't have to fear this gaze. I hel

Kavan’s POVOne could cut the thick tension in the room with a knife. The hand of my father lay possessively on Autumn's back; his eyes were sickly sweet love that made my stomach turn. I observed as he handed her a piece of fruit; his smile grew as she chewed under direction.Twisted in my gut was disgust. This is not right. A friend ought not to be treated this way. Autumn was someone, not a pet to be showered with attention and paraded about. But driven by his obsession with this new omega, my father seemed ignorant of the fact.I pushed back my chair, the sound of scraping resonating in the tense quiet. "If you'll excuse me," I murmured, my voice tense with hardly subdued rage. "I have some business to take care of."My father hardly looked up from his loving on Autumn. "Of course, son," he responded, sounding patronizing. "Don't let us keep you from your vital obligations."I gave no thought to responding. My jaw locked so hard it hurt as I turned and walked out of the dining roo

Kavan’s POVThe lavish furnishings in my father's office felt stifling, the strong smell of polished wood and ancient leather a sharp contrast to the austere efficiency of my own desk. My hands balled into fists at my sides, my jaw closed as I stood before him. The room had obvious tension—a quiet battlefield between two alphas.The words emerged metered, under control, each syllable a precisely placed stone building my case. "Father," I said, "I must express my disapproval of your decision to make Autumn the queen mother." My voice was low and serene.My father's brow creased with a flutter of displeasure across his face. "Disappval?" he replied, sounding with a warning note. "For what reason?"Not backing off, I gazed firmly at him. The chamber buzzed with turmoil, a subdued fight of will between alpha and son. Though I knew this would not be simple, I was ready to struggle for what I thought to be right. For the pack, for the memory of my mother, and for the gnawing discomfort Autu

Autumn’s POVEvery gasp for air was a useless struggle against the iron hold on my throat; my lungs scorched. Kevan's face was a mask of rage, his eyes flashing with accusation as I battled and kicked, yearning to release. Though it felt like dragging at stone, my fingertips scraped against his flesh. My vision started to waver; the room's boundaries became a blurry vortex.Adrenaline flooded me, a last-ditch attempt at survival. Pulling every last bit of strength, I spun my body in a furious push, elbow jabbing into Kevan's ribs. A grumble of pain escaped his mouth, his hold briefly slack.With that elbow strike, I gasped out loud. So sweet and valuable, the air poured into my lungs; every breath was a desperate try to fill the vacuum inside. As oxygen flowed into my veins, my brain swam with a disconcerting relief, rekindling the embers of cognisance.But the life-giving air was grabbed away just as rapidly as it arrived. Driven by a fresh wrath, Kevan's hand closed down on my neck
