The Lycan King’s Claim Their Greatest Nemesis
“Tell me what it is.”Harper didn’t have the idea on what Damon wanted her to do. Aside from the fact that he wanted her close, there’s nothing else that has been said between them. Damon looked deeply into his mate’s eyes. From a different perspective, she looked back at him and see worry in his eyes. aside from the constant look of admiration, there’s something else in them that she cannot deny.“I need you to be safe. Be safe for me, for Hector… Please.”Harper licked her lips. It was different from what she anticipated. She thought that there’s something else, something specific that he wants her to do. But it was only general. It was vague.“Of course. You too. Please.”Damon nodded. with that, the enemies are now in archers’ length. “ARCHERS!”The row of archers raised their bows to the air, aiming to the Red Blood wolves running towards them. Same as the last night, some of the wolves preferred to fight them in all fours. In claws and bare teeth, their saliva falling on the

With a loud howl from Brayden, Alpha Draco took that as a sign and lurched forward. Between the two of them, the sizes aren’t that far in comparison. Only that Alpha Draco’s werewolf form’s obviously rusted and old than the other.The scars, healed cuts and those which left a mark in his skin are still obvious from the naked eye. It cannot be denied that those things are imbedded in his system. It cannot be concealed. Compared to Brayden’s shiny and healthy black fur, the Great Alpha looked in a disadvantage. Until Brayden was proven wrong. As soon as their bodies clashed, Alpha Draco used his strong jaws to cling on Brayden’s shoulders. The younger wolf let out a painful groan as his flesh was torn. Drops of blood stained the impeccably clean floor of the roundhouse. Some of the members of the Virgo saw the fight between the two and stopped. They asked Brayden if he needs help, but Brayden didn’t give his go signal. Instead, the Virgo men watched and cheered. At the back of Brayde

Brayden cursed under his breath. It was a quick movement. He didn’t expect to witness Alpha Draco do that stunt at all. The position he was in seconds ago was impossible to get out of.Tricky, he thought. He was outsmarted. The lower back which was hit by the kick from Alpha Draco hurt like hell.“You… you’re something else.”He said, but moments after saying that, Alpha Draco has gone back to his direction and aimed to bite his throat. Thankfully, he missed.“Never put your guards down, son. I should have taught you that lesson if you only stayed on my side of the team.”Brayden can’t help but laugh. The Great Alpha still cannot let it go, can he?-Outside, Damon’s still shooting wolves like they were rabbits. Harper was beside him, aiding with the kills. The other wolves are stuck with one another, wrestling through the moist mud and tall grasses. It’s easy to spot the enemies though, they’re either black or white wolves with red eyes glowing in the dark.“This should be a lot easi

The crowd silenced when the sound of the gun tossed off echoed across the roundhouse. Brayden stopped wrestling with the Great Alpha too. Marion’s eyes followed the path of the gun, and there, for a moment, he thought of chasing after it.Only for a minute.“Did you just-“The look on Marion’s face shifted into utter disbelief. Maybe he’s thinking Brayden would follow everything he says, that being a part of the Virgo automatically meant being submissive. He clearly hasn’t known him yet.“Don’t butt in on my strategies, Marion. I have a plan of my own.” - Brayden said, making Marion’s brows clash in the middle“You don’t know the consequences of your actions. I’m thinking for the pack. You’re only thinking for yourself.”The whole roundhouse was quiet. None wanted to disrupt the two as they discuss things. They were certain anytime now, a bigger bomb is about to drop between the two. The misunderstanding between them has to be resolved and only one has to be right. Not both. “He’s my

Marion was hiding inside his private quarters when Damon came knocking on his door. He can see who it is from the gaps on the side of the door and the hinges.He let out a snicker and then walked to open the door.“I know this is not what you want, but please hear me out first.”– Damon said. He knows Marion is not in approval of his and Brayden’s action this night. The duel that happened inside the roundhouse was a product of their personal strife but still, the Virgo’s alpha has a say to it. It’s his territory to start with. Marion opened the door wider, inviting Damon in. The latter looked around as he stepped inside. Neil and Jay are not in there, perhaps they were still tailing Norton as they he speaks with their father.“I understand that you and your brother have some unfinished issues with the Great Alpha, but this war doesn’t just revolve on the two of you. There are some of us who deals with the effect, too.” – Marion spoke his mindDamon sighed.“I know… but Brayden has hi

Brayden and Damon looked at each other, as if having a mental discussion on who’s going to help Alpha Draco up. However, both shrugged and got to their father’s side. Damon held his right arm and Brayden was on his left.“On three.” – said Damon and counted“One…”“Two…” “Three.”The two let out a grunt as they pulled Alpha Draco up. The latter also groaned as his bruise on the shoulder got stretched when he got up. “Your room, right?”“Yeah. Better mine than yours. Harper and Hector need a proper huge bed to rest.” – Brayden said and thought of Harper… again. Damon nodded and led the way. The two of them took steps forward in a rhythmic motion. They reached Brayden’s room in a little while. It was Damon who kicked the door open. The single bed and a small table on the right side welcomed them. The pillows were scattered and the blanket wasn’t fold. “Don’t judge me. We’re in a middle of a war. I don’t have time to clean the room.” – Brayden felt the need to defend the state of hi

Brayden didn’t need to ask, “what do you mean?” for Damon to get what his eyes meant.“You can stay with me and Harper in the same room. It’s also best that way since we have to guard Alpha Draco from the other room.”Brayden had to look away and think. Of course, he gets what Damon’s point was. It’s for extreme security for Alpha Draco. Besides, they have to be prepared all the time to attack if needs be. It would be hard to do that if Brayden’s missing in action.At least, it’s good to know that Damon can offer that to him now. Perhaps he already believes the misinformation that Brayden has already moved on from Harper. That the two of them are friends and can stand to be in the same room with each other. Comfortably and finally, with no thoughts of killing each other in their heads. As if that’s possible.“I get your point… but, do you think it would be okay for Harper? I don’t want to make things uncomfortable. Especially with Hector.”Damon snickered.“Harper’s fine if it’s fine
Last Updated : 2023-09-11The Lycan King’s Claim Not Going Anywhere
After five more minutes of convincing, Damon already got the answer he wanted. “Fine, then.” – Harper said monotonously.Damon knew a part of Harper didn’t mean that. Hell, maybe she didn’t mean that at all. However, there’s nothing else could have said. That’s what he needed to hear at the first place. Surely, Harper would understand why he insisted. “Thank you, Harper. This means a lot to me.” – he said and kissed her on the cheekBy the next minute, Damon’s out of the room. Harper was left, thinking of the consequences of what she just agreed on. She gave Brayden her permission to invade their personal space. Their intimate space, even. They have to be in the same bed as him. Even the thought made her cringe. Just when she’s stopping whatever weirdness she’s feeling in her heart with her mate’s brother… The timing’s just impeccable. and she hates it.Outside, Damon has already talked to Brayden about Harper’s affirmation. The latter was surprised to hear how easily convinced Ha

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
