The Lycan King’s Claim First Kill
“I’m giving you five seconds…”Mrs. Keevah’s heartbeat quickened. She can feel the sharpness of the knife against her throat. She wants to struggle, but to do would only make it dig deep to her skin. She doesn’t want to have that risk. Instead, she knows there’s nothing she can do but to stand still. And talk.“I swear! They didn’t say anything to me.”“FIVE!” – Alora started counting. “Harper and Damon were too private with these matters!”“FOUR!”“… even Asher. I really didn’t have anything to do with wherever they are now!”“THREE!”“I swear. Please, I only saw the video this morning.”“TWO!!!”“I don’t know what happened after they left the house.”“ONE!”“Please, spare me my-“…and with the edge of the knife, Alora ended the countdown. Mrs. Keevah gave her last gasp before she realized what was going on. As if it was her instinct, her both hands went to her throat, covering the now-gushing pool of blood from her jugular. Alora was in shock of what she has done. It was the firs

Damon, Harper, Asher and Norton were on the first row of seats at the side of the battle grounds. Finally, the boys knew how it felt to be the one watching, not the one doing the initiation rites. Their view was impressive, perfect even. From that angle, they could see the battle grounds from each corner. The lights, the stage, the area where Anthony will be fighting his way into the Virgo.“You’re saying all three of you surpassed this just to be a member?” – Harper asked. The show hasn’t started yet. The Virgo men is still cleaning the battle grounds and placing hurdles therein. Anthony cannot be found, but Marion said he’s in the private room being oriented of what to do and why does he need to do it. “Yes, we did. It’s a part of their tradition.” – Asher answeredDamon was quiet, his elbows were resting on both his knees, his hands intertwined and his face looking serious. He was thinking on what challenge will this be. Hopefully, it won’t be as hard as the ones they had. Obse

Harper and the rest could see it. The beast was prowling on the maze. Closer and closer to Anthony. However, with the help of the witches, Marion made it happen that there will be an invisible soundproof wall between the challenger on the battle grounds and the audience watching. The boys understand it now, why the crowd was too quiet when they were fighting in the battle grounds. “I can’t watch this anymore.” – says Harper. She could only take ten minutes of watching Anthony being lost and confused in the maze. “You don’t have to.” – Damon said and held her hand.Can she help it, though? She’s in a position that whatever’s happening on the maze can be clearly seen. And if not, there’s a huge screen displaying what the maze has inside it. “Don’t worry Harper. Our guy can do this.” – said Asher“He’s stronger and braver than me. He sure can.” – Norton secondedWhether Norton truly believes what he said is not the issue. It is the sight that is in front of them as of the moment. Ha
Last Updated : 2023-07-19The Lycan King’s Claim Message on the Paper
In the area where light springs forth, there is a green envelope with burnt edges. Anthony picked it up. It was warm. Perhaps the edges were consumed or intentionally placed to be kissed by fire. There was no seal so when it was opened, the long paper was folded twice. When it was completely opened, the letters were written in golden ink, in cursive. The message read:IN ORDER TO GAIN SOMETHING, YOU HAVE TO LEAVE A PIECE OF YOURSELF.Anthony frowned and looked at Marion onstage. He shook his head, hoping Marion would get that he meant he didn’t get the message. On what he is expected to do. The thing that is required of him must be embedded on that one sentence.For some reason, he cannot get the intent of the metaphor. Marion glanced at the clock. 4 minutes left and the challenge closes. Last four minutes of his one and only chance. Anthony sensed Marion won’t help him so he got back his attention to the message on the paper. He’s not a linguist, not a fan of literature as well.

Damon and Harper disregarded their fight for an hour as they met with Asher and Norton. Anthony has been placed in the infirmary. Three witches were placed for his guidance and treatment. The latter two noticed that the couple weren’t talking to each other, or at least not in the usual manner. Asher knew it was because of that time at the battle grounds because Harper isn’t in favor of the way the Virgo welcomes its new members. “You did great out there, man.” – Damon said as the witch wrapped Anthony’s wound with a thick black bandage.“I know… but wow, there’s two more of that?!” -Anthony exclaimedHarper scoffed beside Damon. The latter noticed but only chose to ignore it. He’s still planning to have an extensive talk with his mate later. For now, they have to be here for Anthony.“Apparently, yes. But it’s random so we cannot tell you what are those other two.” – Norton said and Asher elbowed him. How is that supposed to make Anthony feel better“Wow… that’s sick.” – Anthony sai

Marion instructed some of his men to interfere with Harper’s and Eva’s verbal fight. After they were told, the two females were forced to stop and to go back to their own tables. Eva did, but Harper said she lost her appetite and chose to go back to their room instead.Damon, seeing this, gave Hector to Asher and followed his mate. He was worried of her. Whether this is a form of her adjustment or not, she is his responsibility. It is his duty to take care of her and correct her if needed. Inside the room, Harper crashed on the bed. She picked up a pillow and hugged it. There, she screamed. It turned out to be muffled. Damon entered the room just in time to see her muffled outburst and stood in front of her, both hands in his front pockets. “Are you done?” – he askedHarper realized he wasn’t alone in the room and looked up. She dropped the pillow on the floor. It was Damon who picked it up, dusted it and tossed it on the other side of the bed. “I hate it here, Damon. You cannot c

“So, you have a plan all this time? Do the boys know?” – Anthony askedDamon shook his head. He has thought about saying about it to them a lot of times. However, he thought it would be better if he won’t say anything about it yet. It’s premature, and he’d rather tell them about it when it’s already complete“So I’m the only one who has an idea?” “Yes, for now.”“Even Harper?” – Anthony found it hard to believe“Even Harper. I swear I’ll tell everything to everyone soon.” – Damon assuredAnthony nodded. It’s not like he doesn’t trust him. It’s only a question of knowing when it will be. It would be a big news to the boys and Harper. Still, he chose to understand. That’s Damon anyway. Since then, he knows what’s best for the group.“I’ll go back to my room, now. Just keep it to yourself for now. We don’t want any suspicions from the Virgo.”Anthony grinned and nodded. There’s nothing that excites him but a good conspiracy. Damon stood up and walked towards their room. He raised his l

Brayden has been hurting in every move. He hates it that even the slightest movement equates to a straining pain. He cannot move freely, nor can he have the freedom to stand. “How long do I have to endure this, miss?” – he asked one of the witches who just entered the door“Until your flesh is fully healed, sir.”One of the nurses brought him food. He hasn’t seen what was happening outside of the room yet. Last night, he heard loud noises from the roundhouse, which he really wanted to check. However, the nurse was pretty clear with their instructions that he cannot get out of the room unless he’s fully healed. To emphasize that, a restricting spell was cast on him. Each time he tries to sit up from the bed, he immediately falls down flat in the mattress. “When will that be? this already feels like forever!” – Brayden shouted“Hopefully, it will be by tomorrow or the next day.” – the nurse with the food said. The older nurse only stood by the door as the younger one placed the food

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
