The Mistress Hunt

Author: Elena Feathers
last update Last Updated: 2024-10-29 19:42:56
All the ladies kept their silence, intimidated by the King's presence but their eyes waited for the confrontation eagerly.

To them, a new fertile mistress who was in the King's bed regularly was a threat.

Only the marked beast's spouse could give birth to strong, healthy children. Rakhbar had polygamy and there were rare instances where a child was born out of an unmarked wife. The Children are weak but lycan-born.

Any heir of the King can be the next King in the absence of the Queen's heir. Besides, who's to say, this foxy woman won't seduce the King to mark her?!

Ambrose hummed, still fingering Laylin’s hair. All envious stares were stuck on his fingers in her hair.

“A juvenile prisoner died during investigation, do you expect me to resurrect her?” He raised a brow finally looking at her. “Lady Sayon refused visitors. Unverified claims can’t help to proceed investigation beside she recently took back her claim but that’s not what you are getting at. I’ll be generous, speak your

    The King’s command had hit her like a bulldozer. The raid was scheduled for the next day. She paced, back and forth, biting her thumb. The strategy was perfect to placate nobles and eradicate any moles in the Palace but she couldn’t be investigated! She had heard they drew patterns with kohl that react to a witch’s blood. Then another thought hit her. Agatha! If Agatha was discovered to be a witch, then even the King won’t be able to save her! Just when her anxiety had almost taken the best of her brain, a commotion in front of her room caught her attention. “Let me through! The Princess is expecting me…! Princess Laylin!” The woman strode forward but Halo and Sami were quick to grab her, throwing her against the wall. “Madam! You are overstepping your limit! I suggest you walk back before I ask these good Sirs, here to-” “Sami!” Laylin called out to her, interrupting her mid-speech. She gave a subtle nod to release the older woman. Reluctantly, they did but glared at the intrud

    “You think…” Laylin drawled, recounting the band of beautiful women that always followed her. “But why would Princess Scarlet need witches or wizards?” Agatha shrugged and thought out loud, “Women like Princess Scarlet are usually like crows. They like collecting anything that catches their eye. I heard from her maids, she was abused by the previous Queen but she was a rebel. The previous Queen also burnt her tongue with hot coals. They say now she can taste nothing. To the Princess, this influence and freedom was everything. Some woman among the servants of the Princess must be of suspicious origin or exotic heritage, brought in for a certain purpose.” Laylin hummed in thought, “You don’t suppose they are planning something?” Agatha bit her bottom lip and shook her head. “Princess Scarlet looks like a spiteful spoiled ill-tempered heiress to the throne. Such women are hardly up to something as their pesky tricks keep them busy.” Laylin nodded. Princess Scarlet did look like she

    He walked about the room, working on his desk on multiple documents at once in his loosely tied pants. He had just embraced her and was already back at work. She was tired and sick but it wasn’t even past noon so it was hard for her to sleep. She fluffed the blanket with a huff and reached for his discarded shirt. “Glaring at me won’t make you any less miserable.” What Agatha had said about her father's perception of her bothered her. It affected her more than she let on. He was her only blood but he discarded her with such a half-baked excuse. Curse... She cried the whole evening and when he came she was the one who lured him quite brazenly to bed. She was exhausted but the intense feelings he aroused in her were welcome. She needed to numb the ache she felt. "I can't stop myself from trying." Laylin rolled her eyes at him. The tip of his lips rose in amusement and a second later he was sitting on the bed, holding a file he was working on. She averted her eyes, his loose robe h

  • The Lycan King's Bride   She was tired!

    In the dim moonlight, his face shone like stardust was dusted on his bronze skin. She glared at him. His nonchalance was what cut her pride the worst. He was a privileged conqueror, and even at his lowest, he must have never compromised his pride. How could he have ever understand her or the mocking whispers and gazes she faced every day! “Moron.” She murmured in disgust at herself. She didn't hate him but that didn't annoy her any less. It wasn't like she was deaf to all the demeaning curses of being a prostitute who sold her body to the King for favor, she pretended to not listen but it didn't hurt any less. She hated how she was such a putty in his hands despite what he did to her. What was wrong with her? Was she blinded by lust or was she this much deprived that she will yearn his comfort of all people?! But she tried not to blame herself too much. She really had no one... He was manly, there was nothing subtle or boyish about the man and he was some years older than her.

    “Why is there no record of previous ledgers?” Halo and Sami faced each other and smacked their lips eerily together like they had rehearsed it before. These twins freaked her out. “The office was previously run by collaborative parties but we have sent them a request to retrieve the records.” Huffing, she slumped back in her seat. There were no reliable records from five months ago, and the five months' ledgers were vague with every figure exaggerated. She was damn tired, even her quick healing hadn't aided her after the King grated her all night. Her waist ached. Her whole body was heavy and this was all pissing her off. It basically meant in clear words no party will take responsibility for the lost record. Embezzlement was written all over it, in red with an underline. “Elaborate on the collaborative parties?” Laylin urged them and they were quick to place before her five documents, which were signed with different credentials. “Princess Scarlet previously reviewed these ledg

    Wait.” She called out in panic. Though the commotion stopped and all of them paused in their places, her handmaids gave her a sideline glare as if telling her to back out of it. She read the letter. ‘Dear Princess Laylin of Ehan, I request your presence at the intimate gathering I have arranged in my garden. The gathering could serve as an olive branch in more ways than one. I shall await your presence this fine afternoon.’ Laylin stared at her credentials for a while, before looking up. She stared at the expectant eyes of both parties ready to pounce on her and dipped her pen in ink. In fine penmanship, she drafted a letter and handed it over to Melissa. Melissa clutched and ran with it as if her life depended on it. Her maids turned to her with their sore faces as if belittling her. Laylin ignored their imposing stares and instead focused back on the documents at hand. She was tired and the King's consolatory massages hadn't helped her. She should be rightfully resting but t

    “Then why don’t I let you in on a secret?” Scarlett leaned forward with a sickly sweet smile. Laylin remained seated but parted her lips at her dramatics. ”I’m all ears.” Her reply was unenthusiastic as she felt at the moment. Princess Scarlet was a serial schemer and if Laylin wasn’t desperate she would never even bother conversing with her. “King Ambrose can never have resolute power over Rakhbar. That’s why he will take in another Queen.” Laylin furrowed her brows. She had heard hierarchy among the beasts was very strict and their law was blindingly their King’s will but even she had noted the political factions in the Palace. “Why can’t he have absolute power?” Snorting the Princess chugged down cold tea as if it was a drink, “Do you see this White Wolf seal everywhere.” Laylin gave a nod, the flag of Rakhbar had the white wolf insignia and so did the imperial seal. The garden too was shaped like a wolf and she had heard when it snows or white flowers bloom, it is a sight to

    Laylin couldn’t understand what Scarlet obsession was with the White Wolf when there were only two living members left of the Rakhbar Royal Bloodline and one couldn’t shift while the other had demonic blood in him but was clearly a black beast. Instead, what interested her was Scarlet's surety that something would surely happen to alter the Government Policies in three weeks. With a sigh, she crossed the hallways. The Palace was quiet unlike the bustle of the day, the nights were hush as graves. Her mind drifted to the letter awaiting her and of course, her husband who would be aware of her meeting with his political rival. How frustrating! Somehow she wasn’t as scared of him as she was before but that may be because she hadn’t seen him or any other beast in their other form since that night. She involuntarily assumed them to be humans. As she was about to enter the hallway of the King’s Palace, her feet halted. A woman, barely dressed in red lace with straight black hair, was l

    “So Crimson Rukh, how do you feel about marrying me?”His question left everyone present speechless. Even bloodied and battered Ambrose scoffed. Laylin clenched her jaw and tried to walk past him but he blocked her path yet again.At the end of her wits, Laylin burst out. “Get out of my way while I’m being nice!” Her voice trembled as she tried to run to her husband.Tilting his head in confusion, the demon sneered with contempt a second later. "Oh… Is that this dog’s filthy mark? Now that complicates things," he jeers. “I will have to kill him.”With his one tendril, he threw Laylin at a broken pillar and held her there while he slowly walked to the Lycan King."Screw you!" Ambrose spluttered, exerting himself to the fullest despite his state.The demon cackled, throwing his head back, “Your worthless mother didn’t teach you manners.” He picked him up in the air and slammed him back down.Laylin screamed and struggled but her aura couldn’t fight against his sheer force.

    "...I still think you should see her," Laylin mumbled, in his embrace. When he didn't reply, she buried herself deeper in his embrace. "...Sorry. I should not talk about it recklessly." She mumbled saltily. It was a sensitive subject and she didn't have the courage to look him in the eye.He smirked, looking down at her. She was on edge and sensitive to his emotions. He wanted to pinch her puffed-up cheeks with how adorable she was being. His darkened features at that time must have put her on guard. Instead, he settled with running his hand in her hair. He still remembered the spitfire she was, ready to bite him when he first forced her to be his Mistress.He laid back suddenly on the divan, making her fall on him. "Ambrose!""Laylin." He held her by the waist, settling her on him. She instantly struggled to get off him but he held her there."What?! Someone will see!" she was huffing puffing while her face reddening in embarrassment."Laylin." He called her out again in his low se

    "I'm sure you know if you try something, she dies." His eyes swept over Valerie and Ivan. "One less pawn won't make a difference.""No. Not her! Don't touch her!" She desperately tried to crawl but only ended up stumbling and falling on the bloody arena ground. "Let her go this instant!" She begged desperately as her heart was bursting out.Her mother shook her head, her eyes telling her to let her go but it only made Laylin more desperate."Oh, so you love the mother who abandoned you?" Sansy seemed amused and he cackled. "What to do though? You didn't want to be part of my 'shitshow'."Laylin shook her tear-soaked face, "Okay! Okay. Tell them to step back. Let her go and I promise, I will!" Sansy scoffed at the naivety of the Princess, "And why should I let her go?"At the end of her wits, Laylin snapped back. "I will help you!"She couldn't use her aura easily in these handcuffs. No matter how fast her aura might be but the moment she unleashes it, every wizard here will feel the

    It happened when all soldiers lost hope and thought they were fighting a battle with the fate to be defeated. ‘BOOOM!’ ‘THUD! THWACK! THUD!’ An explosion collapsed the outer wall of the palace and dark wizards and soldiers alike flooded in water crushing through from who-knows-where. But shock registered when they met the eyes of the person standing where the wall once stood. “I see. I almost missed all the fun.” There stood Princess Laylin scowling at her torn dress getting wet and an equally pissed woman behind her. “Did you really have to go this far? How am I going to walk around in this now!” Valerie was about ready to knock this stupid Princess out. Every man on the ground, thanks to the knee-high water flooding the palace, was shocked at the carefree women barging in as if they were taking a stroll in the garden. Ivan’s eyes widened. ‘That foolish Princess was here, in the middle of a battle! The King was right out of the door. If she dropped dead here, they wouldn’t b

    She kept her hand on her belly and smiled solemnly. He was a piece of her and her husband. An heir to her lover. “Ahh.. To be young. Though I don’t really like the man, I certainly despise him less than your mother does. I’m not much of a success as a Red Witch so I have no such obsession with bloodlines or species. I just care for my family.” Laylin bit her bottom lip, shrugging. “Mother is... She will come around.” “Hmm, hope so. But I see... you look madly in love.” Berilla teased, looking at her distracted expression. "It must hurt your pride to love him more than he loves you." “What? No!” Laylin rolled her eyes, her smile still playing on her lips. “He’s the one who is chasing me. I just set my grace on my eager lover.“ She was flexing when both of them knew, Laylin was crazy enough in love to dive head-first in a war zone or in front of a raging monster. Laylin looked away. Her smile deepened. She did love him more but it didn't matter as long as he loved her back. A silen

    The palace stood tall and imposing, its marble columns reaching the sky. It had been days since the rightful King had set foot in the home he despised and lived for.But now, with a burning sense of urgency in his heart, he returned to reclaim his throne. Laylin was expecting, he could feel his spawn growing stronger by the day. ‘SHIIINGG!’He walked solemnly, his two long swords dragging behind him. Electric zapping brutally filled the silence as his swords screeched.Previously when he had imagined her carrying his heir, he had wanted to keep her on feathery cushions day in and day out, lavish her with jewels but now he wanted to kiss her the path she walked on.He had no patience left for morons. His Queen was carrying the future King and she deserved better than a humid cave.As the sun dipped below the horizon, casting a golden hue over the palace walls, Ambrose stood lonely at the grand entrance.The military he had himself cultivated stood before him, pointing trembling spears

    "N-No, please!” The startled young witch screamed and poured her aura in with all her strength as her life flashed before her. ‘FWISSSH…’ The witch toppled back on her ass, waiting to die but as the creature collided with the magic circle it emitted a bright, blinding light. The monster's movements slow, and it gradually, in a fraction of a second, evaporated in the air. It became quiet and all the witches huffed in disbelief, as if under a spell. “Good work.” Laylin turned to the witches with a smile. “This is how any witch, weak or strong, can make the teleportation magic circle.” She clapped her hands, “Well, nobody’s dead, so let’s go under the lake.” It may sound twisted but she enjoyed their fear especially Valerie who was pale. She felt gleefully satisfied. Now, sure, no one will question her about the potency of her magic circle. She felt bad for Eloise but it couldn’t be helped, she was the weakest witch and thus the perfect person to show them the spell worked. Seizing

  • The Lycan King's Bride   “Where is she?”

    With a deep sigh, she went to the young Princess. “You think you can handle it after all the… commotion?” She was talking about the things she heard them talk about.The Eldest of the Red Witches looked at the Princess with a faint smile. Laylin remained still. Her countenance was quite ample as she looked ahead at the lake in front of her.Ultimately it didn’t matter if Laylin could or couldn’t. She will have to. For the sake of everyone. For the future.Valerie sighed, “We can do it ourselves too.” Laylin knew it too.The witches could very well pull off a teleportation spell but they didn’t trust her or the magic circle she had drawn especially after Aunt Berilla couldn’t perform the designation spell. The battle with demonic monsters will take more than just technique, hesitation could cost these witches their lives.Only Laylin knew Berila couldn't do it because the Great Mistress had made that spell to pull her into the memory abyss.So the witches needed to believe any of them

  • The Lycan King's Bride   “Where is my husband right now?”

    ‘AAACK!' She pointed the dagger at him and flicked it down. His leg bent at an unnatural angle, his bone stuck out bringing him into a half-kneeling position. “Keep it down. I don’t want a commotion.” She was so calm that it was creepy. Her lazy eyes fell on the Dark Wizard and she smirked. The Dark Wizard tried to cast a spell but nothing worked, he couldn’t take anything as the source. The Dark Wizard had little to no aura or couldn’t control their auras like Valerie. There are two sources for using magic. One is auras that are taken from nature and one is life sources. Dark magicians fuel their magic with life forces which means they kill to do magic. But it doesn’t have to be beasts or humans, depending on the magnitude of the spell even insects can be used for simple spells. She had protected every living being with her aura in the perimeter. Her snake rubbed its head against her neck, and she caressed its scales with a smirk. She enjoyed the Dark wizard's desperate attempts
