Chapter 42: Dark Figure

Author: Lovette
last update Last Updated: 2023-05-24 22:00:25
The Royal Castle is as beautiful as anyone could ever imagine. It had everything anyone could ever need. The people, for the most part, seemed kind enough, though the lady who is walking me to my room right now doesn’t talk too much. I think she is either afraid or she isn’t allowed to talk to someone of a ‘higher’ rank.

“So… how long have you been here?” I asked, trying to break the uncomfortable silence as we walked the long hallway that was brimming with beautiful colors of light coming from the glass windows.

At the side, there were various flower vases and it smelled like summer.

The lady, who seemed like she was in her mid-twenties, visibly stiffened up. I don’t know why when I just asked her a normal question.

“Si– since I was bo– born, Your Majesty.” She responded with a bow.

“Oh, you don’t have to call me that, I’m not your Queen.” I told her and she just shook her head as she gave me a wide gaze.

“No, no. You are. You’re– you’re the King’s mate. You will be Queen.”

Should Hailey do it? Hmmmm~ PS: This was the old chapter 41, but I had to revise it to chapter 42 (new) in order to stop the chapters from doubling. I'm sorry about the mix up!

    King Hunter Beowulf Being so close to Hailey does things to me that no other woman I have ever been with has ever done nor made me feel. I felt it back then, too. That time I first bumped into her. Even before I knew she was my mate, there was just something about her that was different. There was just something about being so close to her that boggled my mind, activated every part of who I was, and made me feel even more alive. I wanted her. I wanted her so bad that nothing else mattered and I would do anything, absolutely any-fucking-thing just to feel her on my lips and taste her right now. And I could tell that she was feeling the same way, too. I could tell by the way her eyes looked at me and there was a hint of desire in them. The way her heart was thumping so loud that I could almost hear it. Her face was so flushed that looking at her like this also inevitably made my manhood harden. Fuck, that’s never happened before. I don’t get turned on like this so easily, but f

    I haven’t stopped thinking about Hunter since that night he came into my room and, well… we kissed. A lot. I thought I could forget it by busying myself, but it turns out that doing that in a place I was unfamiliar with and where I was scared of making a mistake would be quite difficult, especially since I haven’t left my room since that night and it’s been about… I rolled to the other side of the bed to find my little notebook and checked the last entry I had put in. Three days ago. It’s been three days and two nights since I’ve been to the outside world and the same number since I saw Hunter. According to my assigned ‘helper’, Nina, he has been doing a lot of King duties. It’s been busy since he was away for quite some time when he was, you know, trying to bring me back here. I don’t regret doing what I did (for the most part), but I also can’t lie that I kind of miss him. Or, at least, I miss having someone I could have a proper conversation with where it’s obvious they’re

    “How do you like it in the castle so far?” Hunter asked as we dined under the moonlight. Literally. The moon was so big and so close to us as we were at the top that it felt like I could almost touch it. The place was breathtaking on its own, though. With various flowers and the gorgeous fountains and picnic-like setting, it reminded me a lot of the gardens back at home. Hunter told me that his cousin who lives in the castle takes care of this place and uses it as her escape. He figured I would like it. He was very right. “Um… I don’t really know. This is my first time being out of the room.” I told him honestly. “Oh. Right. I apologize.” He said with sincerity in his tone and I shook my head. “It’s fine. I understand that you had stuff to take care of and I could have gone out on my own, too, but… I was kind of scared your– uh, I mean the former King and Queen would suddenly kick me out…” I confessed to him as I absentmindedly twisted the delicious pasta with my fork.

    Hunter’s eyes were twin pools of liquid grays, caressing my face, taking every inch of my body, and promising other desirable outcomes of the darkest nature. In the blink of an eye, Hunter had me in his arms. He lifted me by my ass and with his other hand, he pushed every single thing on the table – the plates, the bowls, the utensils, every single thing onto the ground until there was nothing left and he laid me down on it. The feeling of the cold glass on my skin made me arch my back and it seems Hunter saw this as the perfect opportunity to slam his mouth over mine. I groaned into the burning heat of the kiss, the intensity of it vibrating all the way down to my pussy and I’m pretty sure my wetness has reached the table underneath me. “I can smell your juices from here, baby girl…” Hunter whispered in between our kiss and he bit my bottom lip. “I can’t wait to lick every single drop of it.” He said right before I felt his wide palm on my thigh and he tightened his grip on it

    King Hunter Beowulf “Hailey… My sweet Hailey…” The soft moans escaped my lips, every syllable of her name turning me on even more without much effort. She always had that effect on me. Whatever she does, whatever she says– Hell, she can just stand and breathe there and the urge to devour every inch of her gets stronger and stronger and my wolf and I can barely keep ourselves together. Frankly, I’m surprised we’ve been able to last this long, though I tell you, it’s not fucking easy. The days I had to focus on my duties and I couldn’t even see her was agonizing. Every morning I woke up, I felt my need for her almost overpower my need to breathe. She was my oxygen. She was my everything. My body shakes as I think of her in that lacy white dress. Fuck, did she take my breath away the moment my eyes landed on her. My hardness throbbed in my hand as I stroked it up and down, the thought of her on that table once again, her skin glowing under the moonlight as her back arched an

    My head was pounding like crazy when I woke up. I was pretty sure it was because I had barely slept a wink. Frankly, I don’t even remember when I had fallen asleep, but I’m sure it was past sunrise because the last thing I remember seeing was how beautiful the colors were in the sky, but there was a painful tug at my heart when I thought of having to face another day here. Alas, here we are again. “Good morning, Your Majesty. May I run you a bath?” Nina said on the other side of the door and when I looked at the clock beside my bed, she was right on time. Eight in the morning. She was really good at her work, though I guess you have to be when you were dealing with actual royalty. Not saying I am one. “Sure, come in.” I responded, because it’s not like I had a choice. I learned that if I don’t respond or don’t let them do their jobs, they just stand there and wait for me and I feel kind of bad about that so I might as well let them do something at least. Nina comes inside,

    I was meaning to go back inside my room unnoticed, but that plan quickly failed when the woman turned and saw me just before I could close the door. “Hey, it’s you!” She practically squealed, her eyes twinkling the moment she saw me and she practically forgot about Hunter’s existence as she shoved him to the side and ran up to me. I tried to pretend as if I didn’t hear her, but she was much faster than me. She managed to grab the edge of the door and her strength took me by surprise as she kept it open. Up close, she was even more beautiful. Her eyes were a golden brown and she had gorgeos long and wavy light blonde hair. Her cheeks and lips were a gorgeous pink shade. She looked perfect in this castle. It was people like her that belonged here, much unlike me. Maybe she was one of the girls of Hunter that those journalists were talking about at the airport? I felt a pang of jealousy, but tried to push it aside the best I could, keeping my face as emotionless as possible. “H-

    “I must say… red looks really good on you, baby girl.” His warm breath sent shivers down my spine and my body couldn’t help but readjust itself on him, inevitably touching that part of him, too. Goddess have mercy, is there just something big in his pocket or is that seriously… him? I felt my cheeks get very warm at the thought just as Hunter’s hand slid around my waist and he pushed himself closer to me. “What are you–” I was frozen in seconds when his other hand had come up to my face and he began to delicately trail his finger along my lips. I couldn’t move. His arm keeping me close to him and the strength he used to grip onto me made it impossible, but at the same time, the arousal inside of me was telling me to stay as well. Every part of me wanted him, and it was only my mind that was telling it to do the opposite. My body and this bond, all wanted otherwise. “I want to admire you first…” Hunter said in a deep and raspy voice as his eyes trailed at my body as he looked

    – 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.

    – 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

    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

    "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

    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

    — 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
