The Lycan King’s Claim Meeting Halfway
Harper was relieved to get a reply from Shahila on the detailed address of the camp. She almost got sad that she dropped her call a little while ago. After taking note of the address mentally, she handed the phone back to the kind student. She deleted the message as well as the call records.“Thank you for your kindness. I owe you one.” – she said and the student placed the phone back to her small duffel bag. “Anytime. So did you have your address?”Harper nodded. She no longer needed her help. She had been traveling to the city half her life. The transportation wasn’t a part of her problem. At the back of her mind, what she’s more concerned about what the thought that someone else may be hunting her while she was running away. Brayden and the black wolves. But in order to avoid that, she should be moving now. “I do. Thank you. I have to go now.”The student gave her a smile and she jogged towards the cab station. A bus would be crowded this time of day and she couldn’t risk to b

One can never really run away from danger. As for Harper, she’s certain that it twins her. She’s sure it’s following her everywhere. She can tell because the kind driver she thought would bring her safely to her destination turned out to be a pervert. There were instances where she caught him looking at her through the rearview mirror, looking specifically at the low rise of her dress. On the V area on her chest. It was because of that that she chose to pull over halfway and transfer into another car. The little ounce of patience in her body starting to grow out. She’s having enough of it all. And all she ever wanted is to belong to a clan. To have a mate. To have a simple life for a werewolf. Was that all hard to ask for?Without her knowledge though, that seemed to be closer than she thinks. As she waits for another car to pass by, Damon was too close. He, with the other two men, were driving as fast as possible while still being alert on the people they come across. “We can

Luckily enough, the black wolves managed to escape the camp before the rest of the white wolves knew what happened. The alarm blasted as what Shahila said but the distance between the common room and the dungeon was far that the moment they arrived, the only ones left waiting for them were the unfortunate prisoners and the destroyed entrance gate. With that, Shahila’sand the one across hers were opened. The stinky woman from the dungeons came with the black wolves. Shahila didn’t want to come but Brayden called and said if she stays, she’ll only be placed in the dungeons again. It’s too late now. For sure, Damon and the others already knew she was a traitor.She has nothing and no one to come back to. “I will never forget this. I am Kalla, by the way.”The stinky woman was sitting across hers on a bus and she turned to talk to her. Kalla? What kind of a man was that? she thought. She wasn’t willing to shake her hand too. Still, she’s dirty and terrifying. “Don’t overdo it. I’m not

Harper couldn’t help but stare at Damon. Or at least at his eyes from the rearview mirror of the car. It has been only days but it felt way longer than that. It’s as if it has been months and the tension building between them was getting out of hand. Twice in the row, Damon almost hit a deer or a dog passing the road. It was because he was looking at her from the mirror as well. Something that made Gio and Nerbert look at each other and roll their eyes. “Is anyone hungry? We can stop at a convenience store.” – Damon did it again. Looking at the mirror instead of looking ahead.“We’re good, my king.” – Gio and Nerbert almost said in unison“How about you, my queen?” – Nerbert asked“I guess.”She was starving. The past days, the only food she consumed were water and if fortunate enough, bread. She had no dime with her, only that small amount of money given by a kind Samaritan. She already used that for that failed car ride. Damon nodded and pulled over at the side of the road where

As the night neared, the moon was getting bigger and rounder. It was a perfect time for hunting and some of the men had talked about it to. With Damon’s permission, they gathered in front of the camp, waiting for the exact moment the sun gets down and the moon will reign.It was the moment everyone’s waiting for. And the king sees it proper. The camp has been under too many challenges the past days. They deserve to get loose a little.Tonight, they will hunt. “Aren’t you coming with them, my king? It would be very nice if you’re the one to lead them.” – Harper said as she and Damon stood at the common room’s back balcony, seeing the men and a few women gather to discuss their plan and route. “Nope. They’ll understand. Antonio’s with them anyway. He can lead them just as I can.”Harper nodded, thinking what could be the reason he chose not to join the hunt. As what she heard, the Lycan king’s favorite thing to do was to hunt. Now he said no. Why?“Are you sure? Not that I’m forcing y

Each time Harper’s in her wolf form, she couldn’t help herself. It’s like she was possessed by a different entity, not to mention that the full moon above them was influencing her judgment. As she transformed into a wolf in front of Damon, he couldn’t help but admire her.She was an object of beauty. Her mane was like that of a blood moon’s. Her eyes were on fire and she looked majestic. It was the first he saw her in that form and he couldn’t contain his awe.“Wow. My queen.” – Damon bowed a little.Harper howled, establishing her presence. Damon’s sure their pack members heard that as well. Good. “Shall we go find them?” – Harper roared.“Yeah.”Damon then proceeded to transform. In a blink of an eye, on the place where the muscular man was standing stood a giant white wolf. He howled, followed by Harper and ran towards the direction of the hunters. They weren’t too far behind and when Antonio and the rest of the group heard the howl, they knew their king has transformed. And thu

Back in the black wolves’ den, Shahila and Alora finally met each other. It was on the breakfast table where their seats were positioned to be facing each other. Brayden as always would be at the head of the rectangular table, seeing everyone. This time, he addressed everyone’s attention to introduce their pack’s guests.“Everyone, you may have notice that two extra chairs have been added to our table. This is not accidental. It’s only proper that this breakfast, we would welcome them with open arms (“and hopefully they’ll open their legs” - Brayden whispered) to our camp. My brothers and sisters of the moon, let us welcome Shahila Ruben and Kalla Sand. The two girls stood up to be acknowledged. They gave a small wave. Alora whispered Shahila’s name in a whisper. “Okay, you may sit down. Where’s the food for crying out loud?!”Brayden called the attention of the servers. Those belonging to royalty are the only ones allowed to dine with the alpha. The others were kept waiting outsid

Damon and Harper knew they’ll forever be bound and haunted by what they did. It wasn’t the hunt either of them hoped for. In opposition, it wasn’t what’s supposed to happen in any of the hunt. But the regret would always be late. Now panting and clinging on each other’s body as they both lay on the flat brimstone, they couldn’t help but regret. “This is a mistake…”- Harper murmured. Like she said, he thinks it was too. Now that it has been an hour past midnight, the remorse has dawned. Like the coming of the sunrise.“I didn’t…” What? What were the next words? Damon thought of anything else to add but it seems like nothing comes to mind. He was searching for words and found none.“I know… Let’s just-“Harper got up. With that, she placed her face on her palms. This shouldn’t happen again, she thought. That moment, all she could think about was that she needed to go back to the camp and forget this ever happened. As if that’s possible. Once the bomb has been planted, there’s no use

The Lycan King’s Claim Love in the Middle of War
“Alpha Draco requests your presence, sir.”The messenger talked in a slow fashion, careful that the Virgo Alpha would hear it properly. Marion just finished settling on an old room inside the common room. It looked like it belonged to a royal she-wolf, based on the expensive paintings on the wall and the hand-sewn dresses inside the closet. “Tell him I’ll be there shortly.”“He said it’s urgent, sir.”Marion nodded. There’s no excuses with the Great Alpha. Besides, he’s not in his territory. He’s at the Red Blood’s, the first time he got out of the roundhouse and housed in a different setting actually. The messenger left the door open. Marion put down the third pillow case he packed with him and followed the former to the main room of the common room. Inside, Alpha Draco was waiting. He’s sipping jasmine tea from a small teacup. A lady in waiting was at his side, holding the kettle by its handle. With a plain breakable plate placed under it.“You called for me, Great Alpha?”He lo
The Lycan King’s Claim The Last War
“I… I don’t understand. What do you mean, officer?”Harper was biting the edges of her nails in anxious anticipation. Surely, there’s nothing good that will come out from the end of this conversation. To mention the word “victim” mid-sentence doesn’t constitute good news. “You have no idea, do you?”Harper shook her head… then realized that the person she’s talking to is on the other end of the line. So, her nodding of head is not counted as a response.“I have no idea of what this is about. Please, just-“Harper couldn’t finish her sentence. She’s not even sure if she wants to. what has been unfolded before her eyes the entire day are facts - quickly given facts that either surprise her or catch her in the moment. And these facts aren’t even good news at all. “I’m sorry, miss. I didn’t think you are clueless about what happened in this house. It’s all over the news this past week.”What is?, she thought. But then, it’s Mrs. Keevah’s house. There’s no one else in the house that cou
The Lycan King’s Claim Finally, the Truth
In front of them were the men, the woman and the little baby that they all hated: the ones they denominated as “rebels”. They were on the front of Marion and Alpha Draco.“We meet again…” – said Damon.Harper and the rest of the group stood behind their alpha. The men were carrying their own choice of weapons, their own poison against the enemy. They stood gleaming at the site of fresh dead bodies on the floor. Proudly. The look on Alpha Draco’s face says it all. He wanted the war to be over. He wanted the war to begin as soon as it can. Right in this moment. Right in this spot. “Finally… I’m tired of chasing after your tail, Damon. You and Brayden can come here and let’s finish this once and for all. I’m tired of chasing and of canceling this to another schedule.”Damon licked his chapped lips. He has the same ideas. He didn’t come here to visit his father. He didn’t come here for peace. None of them believes in peace anymore. “I cannot agree more. Later, then. Once and for all.
The Lycan King’s Claim Surprise, Surprise
Just when the silence stretched between Harper and Brayden, Damon got up from his sleep and pulled Harper closer from the waist.Brayden’s eyes followed where Damon’s hands were and gulped. In a moment, he turned to the other side and tried to forget what he has seen. He managed to turn and keep his eyes and body that way.“You’re up early…” – muttered Damon with a raspy voice.“Yeah… my body clock’s messed up these days.” – replied HarperThat was a lie. Her body clock has nothing to do with it. It’s always her thoughts that keep on saying something to her. It feeds her negative ones instead of empowering her to think of solutions. And of course, the place and the ambience did help with the thoughts. It even made the way for it. It even made her feel worse.“Is that because of the war?”“No, something else.”Harper looked at the ring that’s still on her finger. If Anthony didn’t cause a distraction, would that scary man really cut off her finger? For the sake of proving a point?Are
The Lycan King’s Claim Savages
“Elias! You wouldn’t believe it!”Elias was cleaning the Great Alpha’s office when one of the guards from the office went to approach him. The guard was panting, his sweat rolling down his temples down to his neck and chest area. These droplets of sweat blurs his vision as they get past his eyes. “Do you have some news?” – Elias already has some expectations in his head. Hopefully, this is going to be good news. And hopefully, this is about the Great Alpha too. “Yes. you should go outside to see what’s up.”Elias nodded and then he got up to check if there’s really someone inside waiting for him. As it turned out, there’s a small crowd gathered outside over something. The question is, what’s the cause? Who is there that everyone seemed to be alarmed?“Is that…”The rest of the sentence got drowned in the air. the guard who brought Elias the news did not even let him finish. Whether it was excitement or worry, none of them can tell. However, it’s clear from the circumstances that the
The Lycan King’s Claim The New War
“…and here we are!”Everyone of them looked around, expecting a tavern or a cabin in the woods. None of those things were present. They were only surrounded by different trees and the dark moon above them. “Here?” – Anthony repeated, confused“Yes. Over there.”Brayden pointed on the cavern behind him. The boys walked closer to see what he’s pointing to. Then, Harper followed. She already knows what it is, she only got closer so the others won’t speculate. They cannot know she’s been here before. “This is where your safe place is?” – Asher asked with a huge question mark on his face.“Yes. This is what I meant by that.”They all didn’t look impressed. But then again, they’re hiding from Marion and their men. Anything safe that they can use will do. Just not to be caught. Anything. Just not that. They cannot be captured. Not this time. With Brayden leading them, they approached the mouth of the cave and got inside one by one. Among them, only Hector seemed to be enjoying the show.“H
The Lycan King’s Claim Exiled from the Virgo
“Goddamn it, you have a knife! I don’t care if you cut her finger!”Harper’s eyes widened when the huge man on her right got a knife from his back pockets. It’s a new one and surely sharpened just before they went to the roundhouse. The slight shin of the knife reflected the fear in her eyes. Damon’s hip still hurt with the hitting. He was held by four men, struggling as he throws all sort of cure words upon Marion.The man with the knife neared Harper and she stepped back, pulling the two men with her. They can’t be serious. They surely cannot just cut off her finger when Marion tells them to. Or she could be wrong. It’s also possible that these men are Marion’s puppets and would do anything he tells them to. No matter howbrutal or illogical that can be. “Damon, just go… “ – Harper’s vision blurred as the tears welled on the corner of her eyesDamon shook his head. No, he’s never going to leave her. Not this time. Not ever. The man pulled her hand as one man from the side brought
The Lycan King’s Claim Irremovable Ring
Damon kept on looking behind him. He hasn’t seen Harper yet, the entire time that they were inside. The last time he did was when they were sitting on the benches. Back when nothing seemed strange yet.Aside from that, he hasn’t seen her yet. The thickness of the crowd barred him from doing so. However, he’s sure she’s still inside. The slight gap on the door cannot hold a person going out yet. Whoever attempts may be squeezed. “Harper? Harper, where are you?!” – the question roared in the air. They were stuck in the main room with lots of the Virgo aiming at them. Not to mention that the great number of its members were clawing their throats to make their way out. Aside from that, there are two Virgo men who’s at his back as he shouted. They were trying to catch him and bind him with a thick rope. The rope was too thick and Damon noticed that if that will be used against him, he cannot break it with his fists. He cannot set himself free from those.“Harper!”And then, like a mira
The Lycan King’s Claim Above the Chaos
Hearts flutter in a negative manner. This isn’t good. It couldn’t be good.Harper sensed Damon’s tenseness. She looked at his brother and it’s clear that he’s also in his fight-or-flight mode. Any minute now, something is about to happen. She’s positive about that.“I’m sure I’m not the only one feeling there’s something odd here, right?” – Asher voiced out and Damon shushed himAsher nodded slowly. He has confirmed his statement. “… and it is the duty of the alpha to put his pack’s safety first. Even at the middle of the war, the safety of the pack shall not be compromised nor put aside. The safety of the pack has to be the paramount consideration. It is because of that that any threat, no matter how small or insignificant, needs to be gotten rid of.”- Marion ended his speech with a dangerous stare at the Red Blood pack’s direction. “This is not good. Come on. We have to get going.”“What’s going on?” – Norton saidHarper and Damon looked at each other’s eyes. They already understo
