Chapter 11: Better Family

2023-04-11 20:00:49Colt couldn’t stop staring at me. Well, none of them could. It felt like an hour had passed that we were just in the room and I was seated on the couch with Colt next to me.
While my brother looked at me with worry visible in his eyes, my parents still stared at me in horror.
It was obvious what exactly they were thinking – either I was a ghost or that I had come back from the dead.
“Hailey…” My mother hesitantly called me, breaking the silence in the room.
I looked up at her with a tight-lipped smile.
“What…” She began, her eyes thoroughly scanning me.

Heather looked downright pissed. She just came into the room complaining and whining without even actually looking at anyone. “Ugh, mother, I’ve been calling for you for minutes now. Stupid Priscilla forgot to bring my second gown change and she said she asked Cindy to do it, but I can’t freaking find her. Where is everyone?!” Did she just say Cindy? Should I let her know where her best friend’s actual whereabouts really was? It was only when she looked up and saw us did she stop to process what was happening. She looked around the room like everyone had grown two heads. “What is going on here? And why is a stranger in our waiting room?” She stared at me in repulsion as if not half an hour ago she was just gushing over me. Wow, my sister change moods really fast. “Heather,” my mother stepped up, but she didn’t seem to care as her gaze remained on me. “Answer me, stupid. Are you deaf?” She asked while she was snapping her fingers in front of me, like I was just some kind of

Heather’s face said it all – shocked, confused, and absolutely betrayed. Everyone else in the room also thought the same, but didn’t say anything. They probably thought it wasn’t their place to speak up or maybe they couldn’t even come up with words after he showed up out of nowhere. “Kage? Baby, wha– what are you doing?” Heather asked, obvious that she was still trying to keep her cool. Kage turned to my sister with gritted teeth, the muscle on his jaw ticked. “Protecting my mate.” “What?!” Both my sister and I spat out in surprise, and I think that’s the first time we’ve ever truly agreed on the same thing. Heather shot me an annoyed glare and I slightly raised my hand up in surrender. I’m not trying to fight her. I never was. I wish she’d freaking see that and stop acting like I’m her enemy. “You heard me, Heather. Hailey is my rightful mate and I won’t let you hurt her.” Kage exclaimed before pushing her hand away from my face. Heather looked infuriated, but as well as

Though I know my brother was–is–a great fighter, I’ve never actually seen him fight. Kage, on the other hand, once tore apart three wolves by himself during an invasion that came out of nowhere when we were away for a school trip. I had faith in my brother’s abilities, but I also didn’t want him to get hurt. “Try me, Knight. I’ll make sure you fucking regret it.” Colt provoked him further and he let out a low growl, just as Colt growled back too. I thought these two were actually going to end up tearing each other apart, until my father stepped up and shouted in his Alpha voice, “Enough!” And everyone immediately quieted down, all eyes on him. “If one of you shifts in this goddamn room, I swear I will personally haul your ass out of here. Colt, you’re turning Alpha in a few hours and you’re about to get into a fight with our ally? Seriously?” He looked at Colt with such a threatening glare that made him look slightly defeated. “And you,” his eyes moved to the other man next t

I didn’t think it could happen so soon. Or, well, I didn’t think it could happen at all in the first place. But I think… I was looking at my second chance mate. A mate that was given to you by the Moon Goddess because the first one was wrong in her eyes. In this case, my mate this time around definitely seemed right for me. Even though it still seemed like a dream that was too good to be true. Kylo Knight had become even more handsome since I last saw him, and I didn’t even know that could be possible. His green-gray eyes looked even more hypnotizing, and his wavy brown hair looked so soft to touch. This was the little boy that always looked smaller next to Kage. The boy that was only ever seen as Kage’s younger brother. This time, it was like he could win a battle with him without much effort. I don’t know what happened the last six months that I had been gone, but it’s like he grew up to become bigger and better. And even more handsome, too. I was practically on the ver

After what seemed like a long and agonizing few minutes of my father just staring at Kylo, he let out a deep exhale. I think he’s calmed down and that made me feel relieved instantly. “I’m sorry, Kylo, but it just doesn’t work that way around here.” What… the… hell? Did he just confess he was taking out my free will? “Wha–” Kylo and I both stammered, but my father talked over us. “I said what I said and my decision is final. If Alpha Kage wants you, Hailey, then it shall be done, but if he doesn’t, then you are free to do as you will. Now if you’ll excuse me, I have an inauguration to get ready for.” My father turned around and walked out of the room before either Kylo or I could say anything else. I slumped on the couch, feeling defeated. What the hell just happened? I felt the weight of the couch get heavier at the side and when I turned, Kylo had sat down next to me, and he was giving me a solemn look, his lips formed into a half smile, but he didn’t seem happy at all. He l
Last Updated : 2023-04-21The Lycan King's Abused Mate Chapter 17: Finding Answers
When I was a little girl, I used to dream about meeting my mate for the first time. I dreamt of feeling that connection and suddenly, nothing else would matter in the world but our bond. The one thing I was mostly concerned about was if it would be someone I knew in the past or maybe someone that has met me but I don’t remember. I had often hoped that it would be a person I didn’t know because chances are, they wouldn’t be a part of those that used to bully me, or ones who would stay at the side and just watch while I got bullied. Either way, I desperately just wanted to be free from all the shame and start anew. Now here I was, years later, standing in front of two mates that were fighting over me. And the most ironic thing about it all? One used to bully me, and the other used to just stand and watch. Goddess, I really can’t escape this life. “Hailey.” I get pulled out of my thoughts when Kylo calls me, the tone of his voice both pleading and slightly impatient. They

As soon as I got outside, I felt much more refreshed. There was really just something about nature that rejuvenates you and you feel more free when you are one with the tall trees and the warm grass. I thought of shifting so that I could run with Evera, but I didn’t want to ruin my beautiful dress Asteria gave to me and since the sun was coming down, I knew that the guests of my brother and family would soon be arriving and the event will start soon. For now, I will just take in this time being outside and at peace with myself. I continued to walk, and now that there was much more light in the area and I wasn’t technically running for my life, I had more time and opportunity to assess the place around me. Memories of that tormenting night flashed in my head and the fear I felt crept up in my heart with each passing second. I remembered how I tripped on that ground there, grazing my knees, but I had to keep going. I remembered how I hit the other half of my body on the tree t

I was nervous. No, that was an understatement in itself. My heart was thumping so loud, my hands were clammy, and every step I took felt like I was sinking into quicksand. I know that this time, things were different. For starters, my parents actually wanted me to be here. My mother practically dragged me into the ballroom and my father was pleased to see me, too. My sister, on the other hand, was nowhere to be seen. I wonder where she went and I felt a pang of guilt thinking that I might have caused it, that I might have caused her to shed away from the spotlight. But then again, I also couldn’t help but think that finally, after all these years, I was the one that was actually getting to be seen. For the first time in my entire life, I was the beautiful Alpha’s daughter nobody could keep their eyes away from. As I walked into the grand ballroom of our Pack mansion, the guests gasped and stared at me not from disgust, but in delight. If months ago they looked at me like I was

The Lycan King's Abused Mate Bonus: Forever Yours
– King Hunter Beowulf – It was nothing but bliss having Hailey back to me again, and sometimes I even wonder if she’s real, but god, every time she touches me, I know she is. I know she is as real as it gets, and I cannot get fucking enough of her. I’m walking down the hallway to her room where she’s getting ready for our wedding, the one that I had arranged instantly because there was no way in hell I was letting her pass by another second. “I’m coming in,” I said, slightly banging on the door. I heard a shriek on the other side and knew that it’s not Hailey’s. My suspicion was proven correct when the door opened ever so slightly and I saw my cousin staring at me angrily. “What the hell are you doing here? The groom cannot see the bride in her dress!” She huffed and I could hear Hailey’s chuckles at the back. God, I loved her laugh. Just hearing it from here makes my heart beat a little faster. If only Carol would go away so I can tame this beast inside of me trying to escape.
The Lycan King's Abused Mate Chapter 74: Her Rebirth
– King Hunter Beowulf – I held her in my arms, crying, wailing, sobbing uncontrollably. I thought that if I screamed harder for her that somehow, in some way, she would hear me and turn back around, that she would come back to me. But seconds passed, and then it turned into minutes, and Colt and Carol had arrived, too. They saw me on the floor, holding onto Hailey, begging for her to come back. “No! No! She can’t be gone!” Colt cried out and I heard Carol in her usual demanding voice telling other people what to do. “Did they check on her?! Where the hell are the healers?!” ‘They’ve already done everything they could. They pulled out the silver bullet in her, but it had seeped into her body far too fast than anybody would have ever thought possible. Whatever that crazy bitch Suzy had, it was powerful.’ I mindlinked to her because somehow words just can’t seem to come out of my lips. “Suzy…” I croaked out to Carol. She shook her head, anger and tears in her eyes, both emotion
The Lycan King's Abused Mate Chapter 73: Last Kiss
There were a thousand different ways I thought this plan was going to go. One, we wouldn’t even be able to get Hunter alone because he’d be too surrounded by guards, or worse, Suzy. Two, he would be too hard-headed and wouldn’t easily be swayed and go with us. Three, he’d just scream bloody murder and kick me out. There were a lot of other things, but this, this was definitely not something I anticipated. He knew me. But not in a way I thought he would. It turns out, he’s been dreaming of me this whole time. It all sounded so insane, but by the shocked and disbelieving look on Hunter's face, I knew he was telling the complete truth. He had the look of a person who was definitely trying to remember my face from something he had already seen before. But when I told him who I really was, he looked like he wanted to throw me out of this car and into prison for committing treason against him. Totally not the romantic Hunter I used to know, but hey, that’s what this plan was for.
The Lycan King's Abused Mate Chapter 72: Red Dress
— King Hunter Beowulf — I haven’t had proper sleep for quite some time now. I don’t really know what’s going on with me, but every time I close my eyes, I see a woman. She’s dressed in a long red dress, her hair is a color I have never encountered before with silver streaks, and just looking at her from behind makes me feel something I’ve never felt before. My dream always starts with her turned around and when she starts walking, I call out for her. She keeps going, and every time I get closer to her, she runs further away until I am running and running and I become tired, breathless. At the last second, she turns to face me and when I am expecting to see a face, all I see is white where there is supposed to be one. I wake up sweating and panting, my heart thumping loud and fast. Tonight was no exception. I turned to my side and saw that Suzy was still sleeping soundly. I know because her mouth is wide open and she’s making small snoring sounds. I’ve learned to get used to
The Lycan King's Abused Mate Chapter 71: Cutting Bonds
"Are you sure about this, Hails?" Colt asked for, I don't know, the one hundredth time. I'm putting a few things into a bag, just some clothes I'll need for the weekend, and the dress I plan to wear for the... events. I still can't stop pausing and reevaluating things every time I think about where I'm going, but right after I just keep going. I have to. I am determined to do this. To... end things, if ever. I know that seeing Hunter with that woman may either break me, or give me hope that one day Hunter will remember me still. I will go for that tiny sliver of hope. "Yes, and if you ask me again, I'm going to tell Caroline to ban you from getting on her plane." I joked and Colt looked at me with a fake offended expression. "I will not stay quiet while I am treated unfairly!" He exclaimed as he exaggeratedly placed his hand on his chest. "Go take a hike, Alpha Colt." I continued to tease and we ended up just laughing for minutes that my stomach started to hurt. Out of now
The Lycan King's Abused Mate Chapter 70: Real Family
It's been five days since I got back home, back to my Pack, and each day I felt less strange than the last, but still, the feeling lingered. The feeling of me not being where I'm supposed to be, or rather who I'm supposed to be with. It was an endless and monotonous cycle of waking up and wishing I was right next to Hunter, then coming to terms with the fact that I couldn't, so I lived my days the best I could and the only way I could. I guess if there is one thing that I could be really grateful for is the fact that with my re-arrival, somehow, just like Colt mentioned, my family had... changed. A knock on my door startled me out of my thoughts and I pushed my blanket off me. "Good morning, Hailey! Are you up?" She asked on the other side. It was Heather. She's been doing this every morning since I arrived. The first time was weird as hell. And the second, third, but by the fourth time, I somewhat started getting used to it. By the fifth, I began to like it. "Yeah, let me ju
The Lycan King's Abused Mate Chapter 69: Empty Vessel
Just like Suzy said, they let me go. They picked me up because I was barely moving after watching Hunter disappear with that woman, tied something around my eyes, dragged me into a car, then sped off. I have no idea how long we were driving for. I have no idea what turns we took nor what exits. All I know is that when the car stopped, the person took the blindfold off of me, and then tossed me at the side of the road like I was nothing but a broken thing just to be thrown away. I don’t know what I was anymore. I just no longer felt myself, like a part of my soul had been torn apart from me and I could not utter a word or even think of anything else but him, but my Hunter. A painful thought came into my mind – he is no longer my Hunter. I wasn’t sure what happened after that. The rain had come from nowhere, and even when it got heavier, I didn’t move. I couldn’t move, not for shelter, not for food, not for anything. The next thing I know, I’m on bed and I’m opening my eyes as my
The Lycan King's Abused Mate Chapter 68: Dead Inside
— King Hunter Beowulf — Mark her?! She wants me to mark her right in front of my mate?! I thought this bitch was crazy, but now I’m sure that she is, and not just that, but an actual deranged psycho–fucking–path. There was no fucking way I was going to do such a thing. Hailey was my mate and not anybody else. The only one that deserves my mark is her and if Suzy thinks she can force me to do otherwise, she’s more delusional than I thought. I know that Hailey is feeling the same way, too, and if I want my plan to work, I need her to be on the same page, but I don’t have a lot of time. Based on my calculations, I have about ten seconds to bring my fangs out, and another ten to sink them into Hailey’s neck and mark her once and for all. I didn’t want it to be like this. I didn’t want to do this in such a fucked up place and situation. I was planning for everything to be perfect, for the two of us to be in a special place for when I do it, but this leaves me no choice. If I want us
The Lycan King's Abused Mate Chapter 67: Slipping Away
Even until the end, Hunter loved me until his dying breath. I cried and I cried until there were no more tears left to be released by my body, no more water, no more anything. Not a single word in the dictionary could describe what I was feeling. I was completely devastated. Heartbroken. Lost. Honestly, I wasn't even sure if I was still feeling anything. Seeing Hunter lying on the ground lifeless had destroyed me completely. I don't think I'll ever recover from this. And my biggest fear was him getting lost in my memory, our time together slipping away from my fingers, one question repeating in my head over and over again - was he ever really mine to lose? — I jolted awake, sweat covering me from head to toe, and my body was shaking rapidly. I was cold, but I was also too warm, like my body was on fire but I was thrown into negative temperature water. What... what the hell... Where... am I... now... I rubbed my eyes with my hands and right after I tried to move my body
