The Lycan King and his Substitute Bride REJECTION STANDS
“I reject your mate bond. I can't be your mate.”These words replayed in Derrick's head for the hundred time. It had only been an hour he left her quarters. He stood up and walked to the wine shelf. As he made to pick out one, he stopped and his thought wandered. Again. He forfeited the wine and returned to his seat. He released a huge sigh and abruptly stood up again. He was furious and he didn't know why. Wasn't it a good thing she refused their mate bond. She was originally never should have been in the same space with him? Why would he be getting affected by her rejection? Also Ethan had gone to pick up Laura whom he was supposed to marry. He could just switch her with Laura and life would go on as if nothing ever happened. But even as he was making those plans internally, he knew that he was lying to himself. Once Lia said those words she had gone back in and shut the door. He'd been speechless to utter a word. What woman wouldn't be happy to be mated to him? Except Lia Smit

“Bring the prisoner out,” Derrick demanded. Alpha Blake was brought out. The guard was about to lead him into the questioning seat but Derrick stopped him. “Let him stand. He does not deserve a seat even in my prison,” he scowled. He ordered everyone to get out, leaving him and Alpha Blake alone. “You killed my mate and unborn pup years ago, did you think I would not find you?” Derrick gritted. Alpha Blake remain unshaken. His hands were tied with chains. His skin was now on the darker shade and he was emaciated. It wasn't that they weren't giving him food. Because he wanted to die quickly, he refused to taste anything he was given. He was worried about Lia. Worried that he'd be tortured to speak the truth and his daughter's life would be ruined. He'd rather die quickly than wait to be tortured. “I did not kill your mate or your unborn pup,” he said. Derrick sneered. “You still lie to my face? Huh!”He gripped his throat furiously. “How about I begin your torture session right n

“What's up with your sweet wife?” Damian began. His face held a smirk. Derrick shot him a glare. “Well, I'm open to offering some of my magnanimous wisdom and knowledge of women if you want,” he added, still smirking. Derrick shuddered a sigh. “What do you suggest I do? She won't accept to be my mate and—” he paused and felt his heart tighten. It had been happening recently ever since he found out Lia was his mate. The mere thought of her made his heart race and his wolf excited. Suddenly she was a part of him he didn't want to lose. That he was afraid of not having. “Be nice to her,” Damian said softly. He looked at him. “Nice? I am very nice to her. I mean, I have been these days.” At least he was trying. “Not that. Be nicer to her and why don't you court her properly?”“Court?” He almost screamed in shock. “Yeah, I know you have never courted any woman before. Your heart is probably harder than a rock.” Derrick’s face reddened. “I have courted lots of women,” he countered s

Derrick waited patiently. His eyes kept wandering towards the path Lia was to show up in. The weather was cold and he could feel the air blow past his skin. He checked the blanket he'd brought to wrap her if she came dressed lightly. Happy it was intact, he drew a breath. On the small table before him were fruits, a bottle of wine, two drinking glasses and a flower vase. Thick blanket was spread on the ground and colourful lights only bright enough to see faces of the ones surrounded. The flower petals dropped gently at intervals. Everything was beautiful. He nodded his head slightly. Damian arrangement wasn't bad. Then a frown creased his face. Was this what Damian was always doing to impress lady forgetting his Beta duties?He checked his wristwatch. It was getting to midnight and Lia still hadn't showed up. Another thirty minutes and if he she didn't show up and itt would be obvious she wouldn't be coming. Time past and things remained as they were. He was now certain Lia was

LIA’S POV Carlos and I would be breaking Dad out of jail today. So far, our plan was halfway ready but the other half was the problem. Carlos had to enter the house. Derrick must never see him. “Where are you—” Clara tried to ask me as I was leaving. I brushed past her without a word. Since that day I had not said a single word to her. I was yet to figure out what she was but this was the time I really needed to be careful. I was going to visit Ma'am Lucy and inquire about Clara from her but Ma'am Lucy was on leave. And there was no one else to ask. I didn't trust anyone else enough to ask. Carlos would be waiting at the gate where I would pick him up from. I made sure to take a tag Ethan had given me. It was proof that I was the Luna. I didn't have to show my face if I had it. I had secretly met Ethan and got it. I really hoped he never mentioned it to Damian. I was allowed out of the gate where I picked up Carlos. “So what's the plan?” He asked as we walked back into the house

LIA’S POV I thought I had a perfect plan. Or at least close to it. Derrick never was one to be out of his quarters by this time for no emergency reason. What was he doing here?He flashed the big torchlight and I had to tilt my face from the blinding light. “Who—” he was about to ask but abruptly stopped. Me and Carlos was yet to turn around. I could hear him approaching us. “Lia, isn't this the time we run?” Carlos whispered. “Turn around you two. Slowly,” Derrick ordered. I was going to consider Carlos' suggestions but it was too late as Derrick was already behind us now. A stretch and he'd grab us. This wasn't some amateur place nor was Derrick some amateur warrior. We would never make it out alive even if we managed to successfully run from Derrick. One alarm and hundreds of scary guards would be out hunting for us. My goal was always to free Dad. If I fled now, it would all be pointless. Carlos could lose his life. Dad would be killed and I…“Carlos, let's do as he say and d

“That bastard…he is suspecting us,” Alpha Dante said. He, Beta Carlos and Alpha Greg were in his sitting room. They had decided to not use their usual hideout which Alpha Blake knew. Privacy was important and whatever that would link them to Alpha Blake should be avoided. The maid servant served the drinks. Alpha Dante ordered her to leave and also make sure to extend the instructions to the other servants. “You think Blake will speak? I don't trust that bastard,” he started. Alpha Gregory uncorked the drink and began to pour into the various drinking glasses. “He would not. Not when he wants his dear daughter alive. What do you think the king would do when he finds out his wife is Alpha Blake's daughter?”“I think his daughter is in it too. She is deceiving the king. If not, why would the king get married to her? He has no idea she has no lycan blood.”Alpha Dante lifted his own glass. “We need a plan B. Just in case. I have a bad feeling. Blake is a cunning man.”The three men fe

LIA BLAKEWith force I pushed open the door and stormed into my room. The moment I slumped onto my bed, all the emotions I thought I had held back broke free and tears streamed down my face. I clutched my face in my hands and wailed. I wailed like I hadn't done before. As my tears flowed, the memories of the day flooded into my head. A day supposed to be one of the best days in my life turned out to be a painful one for me. >Snatching myself up in the most pretty dresses I ever owned with a perfect make-over, the type I rarely do, I had dolled up myself for my school prom night. The last I would have as a high school kid. Yes, it shouldn't just be my last but my best as well, I had thought. I was totally over the moon and It wasn't just that I was attending my last school prom night but a part of it was that I would be attending it with my crush. I couldn't have been more excited. "Please have you seen Carlos?" "Have you seen Carlos? He is handsome and has

The Lycan King and his Substitute Bride CAN'T BE YOUR MATE
Seeing it was truly Clara knocking as I predicted made me frown. “I told you to take the day off.” “The king is here,” she said.My heart skipped several beats. I panicked. Derrick was here to see me. Why? What? To talk about last night? My mind swirled with many thoughts. “What should I do?” Clara asked again, interrupting my roaming thoughts. Honestly, I wasn't sure if I was ready to face Derrick. I was too embarrassed to face him. “Tell him I’m not home. I stepped out for some air.”“He is aware you are around.”“How?”I don't know but he said “tell my Luna to come out” instead of asking if you were around.”“Well, lie to him then.”I banged the door shut. I felt bad for using Clara like that. My shoulders felt heavy as I dragged myself back to bed. My body no longer felt knackered. However, my wolf had become really nosy and talkative. Sigh. Was this the new side effect for having sex with a man you weren't supposed to do it with? I shut my eyes and drew in a slow breath. I h
The Lycan King and his Substitute Bride Bad daughter
LIA I woke up the next day with my entire body feeling knackered. When I opened my eyes, it was strange–the bed I lay in was not the usual one I slept and woke up in. The scent was different. The strangest part–something heavy, like an arm, was laying across my chest. I nearly screamed if not that a memory flashed in my head instantly halting my scream. The memory came in bits and was unclear but I couldn't ignore the realness of it. O stilled and waited for it to replay. That was when I looked and saw Derrick. I froze, because that moment the bits and bits of memories started to merge, leaving the unclear zone and rearing up strongly. And very clear. I gasped, unable to believe what my brain had just revealed. How? Why? Halting the many questions floating through my head which at that moment I couldn't provide the answers, I began to detach myself from Derrick’s arm. The more I detached, the closer he snuggled towards me. Tired, I stopped and my palms held my head. “Lia, what hav
