The Lycan King's Accidental Bride 12: TWO SIDES OF A COIN
RAVEN I didn't get far. Bile rose up the back of my throat and I gagged, spilling my stomach's content into the nearest flower pot I could find. My body gave out and I crumpled to the floor, my breaths coming in ragged gasps as I emptied my stomach until I could no longer move. Closing my eyes, I lowered my head in an attempt to catch my breath. A gentle hand rubbed my back in circles. It was comforting. Judging by the situation, I had a feeling that King Aries had somehow found his way to me to comfort me. After what felt like an eternity, I opened my eyes and turned to look at the king. He handed me a water bottle, his gaze soft with concern."Are you feeling better now?" He asked after I'd rinsed my mouth. I nodded in response and he brought me to my feet, his hand lingering on my waist, to support me. "Come with me. You need to get examined by the healers," he stated, and I let out a sigh."It's probably just something I ate," I told him. "I don't doubt that. Even so, you

ARIES From the moment Ariella barged into my study with a suspicious-looking vial in her hand right to the moment my mate blurted out the words I didn't think I would ever hear from her, my mind was a chaotic mess. Hearing her claim that she was carrying my child was enough to calm the raging storm in my mind. I stared at her, every other sound fading away. At first, all I could hear was the hammering of her heart and the sound of her breathing. Blocking out every other sense of mine, I descended from my throne and approached her, following the sound of her heartbeat. When I halted directly in front of her, I heard the second and third heartbeats coming from her body. I froze, and my thinking system crashed as this new reality smacked me in the face. Twins. My woman was carrying two of my children in her womb at that moment. My gaze locked with her desperate eyes, mesmerized by their striking electric blue colour."Aries," she breathed, and the animal inside me stirred. Rav

RAVEN "Wake up, Selene. Wake up," a familiar voice whispered in my ear. I sat up in bed with a jolt, only to find that I was all alone in Aries' gigantic bedroom. I could've sworn that someone had woken me up. They had called me 'Selene.'Rubbing my forehead, I got out of bed and walked up to the window, opening them. I took a deep breath, the fresh scent of flowers filling my nostrils. "Selene."I flinched, turning around with a start. I'd just heard it again. The voice from earlier. I couldn't help but wonder if I was being haunted by a ghost. Even so, why would they call me by a name that wasn't mine?While I thought about this, a huge mass of darkness appeared in the room, and the lights began to flicker. Struck with terror, I ran towards the door and tried to open it, but it refused to budge. My heart raced madly, and my fingers trembled ceaselessly."Don't be afraid," a masculine voice said from behind me, and I turned around hesitantly. Eventually, I came face-to-face

RAVEN I stared at him, wide-eyed. The response he'd given me was the last thing I'd expected from him. "When did this happen?" I asked, worried that I might be probing into things I was better off not knowing. "Two centuries ago. It happened on..." He furrowed his brows, his voice trailing off. I stared at him with a raised brow, wondering why he suddenly looked so lost."I'm sorry, I shouldn't have..." I started to say, and he shook his head. "You did nothing wrong. I...I suddenly can't remember what really happened," he said, rubbing his forehead. "Well, it happened a long time ago. I can barely remember what happened yesterday," I said. It was a lie, but the words slipped out of my mouth on instinct. I didn't really understand why he looked so worried because he couldn't recall a memory. He has lived for quite a long time. Shouldn't it be normal to not remember?While I thought about this, he suddenly winced, his face rapidly losing colour."Your Majesty, are you alright?

RAVEN "I told you, didn't I? You belong to me. You can't be with another man," Hades growled, and annoyance surged within me. Who the hell did he think he was? Taking a deep breath, I went limp in his arms, and he immediately released me. I pulled away from him, worried that Aries might see him with me. "I don't know you. Stay away from me if you don't want trouble. I already have a mate. All of this is pointless," I said, and he clenched his jaw, his expression turning stone cold.Without waiting for him to say anything, I hurried towards Aries. He handed me one of the ice creams and took hold of my hand, using his free hand. "I didn't take too long, did I?" Aries asked."You didn't. Today has been nice. It's been only a few days since I arrived at your palace. Things are much different than I thought they would be," I stated as we strolled towards the park. I could see a few children running around the park while their parents watched them with fond smiles on their faces. Th

ARIES "Took you long enough to get here," King Hades stated the moment I joined him in the throne room. The mere sight of him was enough to stir up hostile feelings towards him. We've had quite a long history. "You went off the grid for several decades. I'm surprised you thought of visiting my palace right when you returned," I stated, and he smirked."I heard about your wedding with the only daughter of the alpha of the black claw pack," he said, and I eyed him with a blank look on his face."Is that the only reason you showed up here? It's not a big deal," I replied. "Come on now; we both know it's a great deal. I didn't think you would ever get married. It was surprising to hear that your marriage was an arranged one. It spiked my interest, old friend," Hades stated, and my right eye twitched.This bastard sure hasn't changed. We had been friends until he chose to join the witches to destroy my people. Yet, here he was, calling me an 'old friend'?"What exactly do you want?"

RAVENI was certain that my blood had frozen over in my veins. The moment Hades spewed those dreadful words, my airway constricted, and I couldn't breathe. Even so, I knew he was right. I was merely an imposter after all. Before the elders, I doubted that my mate would defend me. "Sienna West, that's your name, isn't it?" Hades said to me, and everyone gasped."Did you know about this, your majesty?" One of the elders asked, and that bastard smirked. It was clear that he was enjoying himself. "Of course he didn't. This situation can be easily remedied. She's merely a slave. Let me buy her. What do you say, your Majesty?" He said, and I went still. The smug look on his face was enough to spike my temper. But there was nothing I could do. And for a moment, a thought crossed my mind. Would Aries really sell me if he wanted to?I'd been sold an awful number of times, and each time I was sold, I ended up in a worse state. Although I chose not to show it, my fury was quickly becoming f

RAVEN Nathan's cold gaze met mine, and my stomach rolled. His hatred for me was as obvious as it could get. Alpha Declan walked up to Lily's side and placed a hand on her bony shoulder. Her expression did not waiver. "My rightful bride, you say?" Aries said, and Alpha Declan's gaze darkened. He lifted a hand towards me and pointed at me."That girl belongs in the dungeons. She committed an unforgivable crime," he stated.Aries turned to look at me with an expression I couldn't read. At this point, I suddenly wished I'd told him everything. He didn't know the whole truth, Alpha Declan would use it against me. "She's my wife now, Alpha Declan. I can't discard her just because my 'rightful bride' decided to show up," Aries stated, and rage exploded over Alpha Declan's features. The tension in the air had tripled. I knew that if things went on like this, the whole situation would take a drastic turn. "She is a traitor, your majesty," Nathan stated, and I swallowed hard. Aries st

The Lycan King's Accidental Bride 31: A HAUNTING RED
RAVEN It felt like something out of a nightmare. I wanted to believe that what I'd just heard and seen wasn't real. But, I was also painfully aware of the fact that I would only be lying to myself. "Why did you do that?" I asked when I finally found my voice. She chuckled, clearly amused by my question. "If you're talking about why I tried to attack the Lycan king, then I must tell you this. I hate him. Deep down you hate him too, don't you?" She said, and I brought my hands to my face, tears clouding my vision. "I don't understand. Why...why are you here? Why are you trying to take over my body?" I said, my voice trembling. "Don't you get it? I am you, and you are me. That monster is destined to die by our hands," she replied. I shook my head in disbelief, nausea creeping into me. "Why do you hate him so much? Isn't it enough that you cursed him?" I croaked, and her eyes darkened, her face contorted in rage. "He killed my people. He led them to their death! He has to suf
The Lycan King's Accidental Bride 30: NO CONTROL
RAVEN I'd been waiting for this moment for the past few hours. Yet I was burdened by crippling anxiety. I'd spiked my mate's tea with the truth serum Lily had provided me with. A part of me was worried that there would be side effects. And the look of absolute terror on Aries face was not helping either. Did he recall something terrifying? I couldn't help but wonder. "Do you remember something, your Majesty?" I asked, and he pulled away from me, his face twisted into an expression of anguish. He was fighting the effect of the serum. "Do you remember seeing this necklace?" I asked, and he turned away from me, rubbing his temples. "Did you spike the tea?" He asked, and I froze. When I still didn't say anything, he nodded, his shoulders slumped in defeat. "I guess I have my answers now. I understand that you're desperate, but you really didn't have to do that. Do you really wish to get rid of me that badly?" He said and stormed out of the room, leaving me to stare at the do
The Lycan King's Accidental Bride 29: REGRETS
ARIES Raven's expression slowly morphed into one of absolute terror, tears filling her eyes. Maybe it was for the best. I didn't want her to grow too attached to me. That way, she wouldn't be so heartbroken on learning that I was involved in her father's death. There was no evidence yet. But I wasn't confident that I was innocent. "How do you know that? By chance, do you recall--" Her voice trailed off when I lowered my gaze."You're not sure. You're only making assumptions," she said, her voice laced with hurt. I squeezed my eyes shut, my mind in turmoil. Even if I was indeed not her father's murderer, was it really okay for me to stay by her side?I was slowly wasting away. And no matter how much I yearned to be with her, wasn't it selfish to let her feel the pain of losing me? Perhaps, it would be better for her not to get attached to me. "Is it really okay for you to be with someone who might've killed your father? Wouldn't your father feel betrayed?" I said, and her ey
The Lycan King's Accidental Bride 28: TORN
RAVEN A few hours before, I stared at the hooded figure standing by the door of the bedroom, my eyes narrowed in suspicion. Reaching out a hand to grab the intruder's hoodie, I pushed it off their head. My eyes widened as I registered the intruder's familiar face, my jaw dropping. She lowered her gaze, pushing her hair away from her pale face with trembling fingers."Lily?" I said, confused."It was you all along?" I breathed. She grimaced, keeping her gaze fixed on the floor in front of her. "We need to talk," she mumbled, and I frowned, my confusion soaring. I'd been so certain that she wasn't on my side. Was all of this a plot to turn me against my mate? Or did she know something I didn't?"I have to go now. I can't be seen by others," she said and started to turn away from me. I grabbed her by the wrist, stopping her from leaving."Do you really expect me to believe that you haven't been trying to deceive me?" I demanded, and she let out a throaty cough into h
The Lycan King's Accidental Bride 27: SEED OF MISTRUST
ARIES "Your majesty?" My eyes snapped open at the sound of Ariella's voice. She was standing right in front of my desk, watching me with concern in her eyes. The remnants of the haunting memories that had just flooded my mind faded away, leaving a dull, empty feeling in it's wake. I could barely remember what the memory was all about."Are you alright? You're sweating..." She said, and I ignored her statement. "What do you want?" I asked and she heaved a sigh."I miss you. I miss the old you," she stated, and I gave her a blank stare."You should leave if that's what you're here to talk about," I said, and she pouted."That's not why I'm here. I fainted two days ago," she said, and I furrowed my brows at her, puzzled."Of course, you didn't know. You were too busy concerned about Raven," she hissed."Stop whining about that. It's getting old," I retorted."I'm pregnant," she deadpanned, and I blinked at her.Did she really think I was gullible? "And?" I said, raising a brow
The Lycan King's Accidental Bride 26. FRAGILE INTENTIONS
RAVEN Without thinking it through, I crumpled the paper and slowly turned to look at Aries with a false smile on my face. His brows knitted into a frown as he reached out to cup my face. My stomach churned as the dreadful words that I'd read replayed themselves in my head. Questions surged within me. I had no answers for any of them, it only worsened my growing doubts. "Did you have a nightmare?" Aries asked, and I nodded, leaning into him to prevent him from noticing the knife on the nightstand. He held me close, stroking my hair slowly. I squeezed my eyes shut, feeling sick to my stomach. For the rest of the night, I couldn't sleep. When he left me alone in bed, I pretended to be deeply asleep. I felt him press a kiss on my forehead, and once I was sure that he was no longer in the room, I sat up in bed. I proceeded to freshen up and leave the room. I didn't know who to talk to about the strange note I'd received. Even worse, it was alarming to think that someone had snea
The Lycan King's Accidental Bride 25. THE CALM BEFORE THE STORM
RAVEN Several Hours Before, I still couldn't wrap my head around everything Hades had told me. If he had been married to me at one point in my past life, it didn't mean that I would belong to him in my present life. According to Hades, Aries was our mutual enemy in our previous lives. Even so, I was conflicted. Aries had only ever treated me well. He was married to me now. Unable to get some sleep, I left my assigned room and headed downstairs to get myself something to drink. However, before I could get to the bottom of the stairs, I heard Hades speaking with someone I couldn't see. "I plan to make her take part in the bonding ceremony. There's a high chance that she will remember her old memories," he said, and my heart sank. I had enough on my plate at the moment. The last thing I wanted was to put up with memories from my past life. "What about her unborn children? A pregnant woman isn't allowed to take part in the bonding ceremony," I heard the strang
The Lycan King's Accidental Bride 24. YEARNING
ARIES "Your Majesty? Are you alright?" At the sound of Cade's voice, I lifted my gaze and found him staring at me with a worried look on his face. Puzzled, I glanced around and found myself in the courtyard. I couldn't recall leaving my study. "What happened?" I asked, clearing my throat. "You've been sitting here since the meeting with the generals ended. It's been three hours," he pointed out, and I furrowed my brows in confusion. The meeting was supposed to take place in an hour. Was he insinuating that the meeting had already taken place?"Do you not remember attending the meeting, your Majesty?" Cade asked, and I heaved a sigh. "It's been happening a lot lately. It's getting worse," I said, rising to my feet. "We have to do something. Anything at all. If this keeps happening, rumours might spread. We can't let the werewolves learn about this," he continued. He was right. If the werewolves gained knowledge of this weakness of mine, they would take advantage of it right
The Lycan King's Accidental Bride 23: Distorted
RAVEN A few hours before, I quickened my pace as I left Aries' room. The emotions I'd felt while staying around him had swelled to the point where I desperately wished for some space. I needed to think. I had to process these feelings.However, as I made my way down the hallway, I sensed an ominous presence following after me. I had a feeling that it was Hades.So I hurried out into the garden and froze when chills ran down my spine, my vision blurring at the edges. Pain speared through my temples, and I dragged in a shaky breath as a memory surfaced in my mind.The cold wind ruffled my hair as I stared down at Aries, who knelt before me with a blank look on his face. He was covered in blood that was mostly not his. Clenching my jaw, I brought my sword to his throat, bitterness surging inside of me. "Do it," Aries spat, and I growled, lifting the sword in a bid to strike....I blinked back into reality at the sound of Hades calling my name. Bleary-eyed, I looked u
