The Lycan King’s Destiny 0047
Kayla's POV“You have to leave” The guards didn't take no for an answer this time, prying my hands away from the bars Azel was behind and pushing me away from her cells. I didn't fight them, it was no use. Quietly, I made my way through the tunnels, making it back to the grand staircase.I took the steps slowly this time, the wheels of my head spinning working overtime. I wasn't going to break my promise to Azel which meant I would have to get evidence Lily was behind the theft and possibly the poisoning.“Kayla” A baritone voice cut through my haze. I glanced up my eyes locking in with the King's.Only, It wasn’t him.I eyed him carefully this time, I was paying attention. I noticed his scent was different from the King's, a strong musky scent. Not that I needed that to prove it was Kain; his smirk was all the confirmation I needed.I didn’t think I had ever seen the King smile so genuinely, unlike his brother who smirked and laughed all the time and strangely I preferred Klaus' frow

KLAUS' POVMy fist froze inches from Kain's jaw, the impact lingering in the air as her words hit me harder than Kain's blow ever could. Even Kain was shocked by her words. He turned to look at her then back at me. He seized the moment, yanking free from my grip, his lips curling into that smug grin I despised. His voice dripped with satisfaction as he turned toward her. “Wise choice, Kayla. You’ll find I’m far better company.” For a moment I couldn't move, unable to recognize the person who stood in front of me, my chest tightened, fury and disbelief swirling inside me. I clenched my fists, trying to keep control.“What did you do to her” I snarled, glaring at Kain who was glowing in victory. He shrugged his shoulders about to respond but Kayla spoke first,“He didn't do anything, this is my decision, my choice to make” she said, trying to sound confident, trying to hide her nervousness.“Kayla this is no time for your nuisance. This is serious. You should go to your room and rest

KLAUS' POV“Your Majesty, King Klaus, thank you for joining us on such short notice, but I hope you understand why this is urgent” one of the elders began.Noon crept up faster than I expected. Before I knew it, I was standing before the council members. Their faces, grim and set in stone, betrayed nothing but disapproval. Not a single smile, not a flicker of empathy. They sat in a half-circle, eyes on me as if they’d already passed judgment.“I have no problem with anyone here, but having meetings behind my back is an insult to my position” I started squaring my shoulders bracing myself for whatever they threw my way.“Your brother has as much right as you to schedule a meeting- if you can call it that. He just wanted to talk”“This is still my palace, everything is to go through me first” I retorted, angry by the way they dismissed the issue like it wasn't a serious offense.“That is an issue for another day. Today we've gathered to discuss the crown and the lies you've been feeding

Kayla's POVKain’s arm slipped around my waist as if it had always belonged there, his grip firm but casual. “Smart choice,” he murmured, lips close to my ear. A shiver ran through me, but I forced a smile.I had to convince Kain I was on his side to unravel the chaos I created. The King wouldn't understand my intentions now, but it had to be done.“You look a bit pale. I know this is a lot to take in so take your time” Kain implored, leading me down the hall.“No… I mean… Can I stay in your room?” I muttered trying to make my tone sound casual.“Why?” Kain questioned, eyeing me suspiciously.“The King is angry, he might try something” I whispered, feigning fear.“You don't have to worry about him, he wouldn't hurt you” Kain tried convincing me but I persisted.“You don’t understand,” I muttered, feigning a tremor in my voice. “I’m scared to go back to my quarters... the King could be there waiting…” My voice trailed off, leaving the implication hanging between us.“Well, very soon,
The Lycan King’s Destiny 0051
Kayla's POVI forced down the urge to puke as I stared at the album. He had a family all this time and he kept flirting with me.I didn't doubt the King's word for a minute when he said Kain was just using me to spite him, but now I felt utterly disgusted.Footsteps echoed in the hallway, snapping me back to reality. I quickly shut the album, placing it exactly where I found it, then hurried back to the chair by the window. My heart pounded, fingers trembling slightly as I forced myself to appear calm.The door opened, and Kain stepped in, his confident smirk plastered across his face like he owned the room— and everyone in it. He glanced at me, his eyes searching mine as if he could read my every thought. I swallowed hard, pretending like nothing had changed, but it felt like a million things had shifted in the few minutes he’d been gone.I had to leave."I should go back to my room," I blurted out, my voice barely steady. His eyes narrowed slightly, but I stood up quickly, cutting o

Kayla's POV“Klaus please-““You have no right to call me that!” The King roared, the aura of his anger made the guards who held him step back.“I don't want this false pretense. I don't know what game you're playing and honestly I do not care. Stay away from me Kayla or I'll do something both of us will regret” I took a step back, feeling a tear slip through my lashes. I shook my head trying to shut out the agony I felt.“What's with the delay? I want to be out of here” The King urged the guards, clenching his jaw.“No!” My voice cracked as I pushed against their broad shoulders. “Stop! You can’t do this! He doesn't deserve this”The guards hesitated, their faces pale, through my blurry vision I could see the struggle in their eyes. They were also aware this was unfair.“If you don't toss this girl aside and take me to the dungeons I will go and lock myself in” The King spat he didn’t look at me again. He just kept walking, his steps steady, as if he had already accepted his fate.“Y

Kayla’s POV“Why would he do that?” I wondered, my voice barely above a whisper.“You tell me Kayla, why would a man who ‘hates’ you willingly put his life on the line to save you?” Those were the last words from the lady before she walked away.My heart pounded against my ribs, the anxiety eating at me. Now more than ever I had to save him.Before I knew it I found myself in the pack's hospital. I approached the doctor’s office and knocked gently.“Come in” I heard from inside before reaching for the door knob and stepping in. The doctor glanced up from her paperwork, leaning back in her chair. She didn’t look surprised to see me, though her expression was unreadable especially since she wore glasses.“I’m really sorry for coming here on such short notice but I really need your help,” I began. “The nurse who conducted the DNA tests I need to find her.”The doctor’s lips pressed into a thin line as she shook her head. “I’m sorry. That’s not something I can help with. The nurse in ques

Kayla's POV "Go Kayla, go and be with Kain. He is the man you chose. Keep the baby safe" the King whispered, stepping away till the Shadows swallowed him. "I'll find another way I promise" I vowed, the King stayed silent and after a while it was clear he wouldn't respond. Weakly, I left the dungeons placing a second DNA test as my plan B. Klaus couldn't give up so easily, especially since he was behind bars to keep me safe, I would have enough faith for both of us if he wasn't ready to fight. I would no matter what. I followed the stairway back to the buzzing activity of the pack house thinking about other options when his scent caught my nostrils. "Kayla," Kain’s voice rang out. “Where have you been?" I turned, making sure to keep my hand casually at my side hiding the syringe. For a moment seeing him- his resemblance to the King made me mad. The King should be the one out here walking around freely not him. “Kayla?” Kain spoke again as I remained silent. I shook my head

Kayla’s POVThe tears started falling before I even realized it. My chest tightened, each sob coming out as a painful gasp for air.“She left me there, she abandoned me” I croaked out, my heart feeling heavy.“She did it to protect you,” Silver whispered in my mind, her voice gentle, like a comforting breeze against my skin.I wanted to believe that. I had to. But the ache in my chest was unbearable. For so long, I’d believed my parents were dead, that I’d been spared from some type of accident but that wasn't the case.She had left me at their doorstep, she took my wolf and left me vulnerable,But at what cost?A sob escaped me, the kind that leaves your throat sore. I could taste the salt of my tears on my lips, and feel them slip down my cheeks and onto my skin. My hands shook as I wiped at my face, but the tears wouldn’t stop. My chest heaved, desperate to catch a breath, but each inhale only brought more memories.“Why didn’t she tell me?” I whispered, my voice barely audible ove

Kayla's POV“Kayla you're acting like a child.” Klaus calIed out behind me stopping me in my tracks.I never thought I could feel so much anger that I couldn’t breathe, I looked around, hoping this was a dream seeing Raymond changing out of his clothes. He looked like he didn't want any smoke and letting us deal with the issue ourselves.“You're unbelievable, Klaus” I snarled, crossing my arms.“I'm just saying you're acting a bit irrational here”Irrational?Irrational??It took a lot not to cross the room and punch him so hard he swallowed his words.“I'm sorry I find it a bit hurtful the only reason you're alive is because I risked my fucking life for you and you don't give a damn, rather you're accusing me!”“We're talking about a baby Kayla, the kid is innocent in all of this” Klaus retorted like I was bothering him.“Yes but I'm not, right? I'm the one who forged DNA reports. You are beyond reasoning with and I have better things to do” I turned around to leave but I stopped tur

Kayla’s POVSteam rose from the tub as I sank deeper into the water, letting it wrap around me like a cocoon. I thought a bath would help but I still felt as shitty as before.A knock on the bathroom door pulled me out of my thoughts. Azel stepped inside with a tray of food, her eyes twinkling with something and I could immediately tell she had some new gossip to spill.“Anything interesting today?” I asked, though I already knew where this conversation would lead.“Oh, just the usual palace chatter,” Azel said, setting the tray down on the side table. “You have been through so much, we need you well and rested.” Azel tried to shift the conversation.“No Azel it's fine. whatever you have to say I can take it” I said, sinking deeper into the tub so only my head was on the surface, my hair spreading through the water like tentacles.Azel walked up to the bath, splashing water, unable to meet my gaze before speaking.“It's Lily”I stiffened, my fingers gripping the edge of the tub, guess

Klaus' POVThose few days in the jail cell didn't seem so bad now. Being reappointed as Alpha after Kain made his division and managed to get people on his side wasn't an easy journey and now there was another baby on the way.It was one I didn't expect but one I couldn't turn my back on. I knew Kayla was right and sooner or later I would find a reason why trusting Lily was a bad idea but I was hurting Kayla in the process.Hopefully, this was all a game Lily was trying to play but funny enough if it came to that, I won't get mad but rather I’d be relieved.“Your majesty, good morning” Lily wore a long velvet red gown that stopped below her ankles, she looked beautiful truly, Lily was a sight to behold.“You called for me Alpha” she continued since I remained quiet I blinked back to the present, my eyes narrowing as I wondered what just happened.“Yes… I ehm we're going to the hospital” I voiced trying to keep my voice steady.The corners of her lips curved into a smile like I asked h

Kayla's POV“What nonsense is this Lily?” Klaus blurted out in astonishment while I stood frozen like a statue.I was at a loss of words or maybe I was unable to speak because my breath caught in my throat, it felt like my ribs had caged in, squeezing every bit of air out.“I have proof” she continued the torment and brought out a piece of paper from her bag waving it like a flag. Instinctively my hand reached out trembling as I took it from her."This can't be possible," Klaus muttered, his voice low, almost pleading, but it sounded weak. It didn’t even hold the edge I was expecting. He sounded like he didn’t believe it himself.I glanced down, my eyes skimming the bold letters that confirmed it. My heart clenched. I knew they had been together, I had seen it with my own eyes, felt the deep, cutting pain of the mate bond. I could endure all that again. But this? A baby?The floor seemed to tilt beneath me, and I had to steady myself, gripping the paper so tightly that it crinkled und

Kayla's POVI glared at Raymond, who just rolled his eyes for a moment. I didn't know what to say and I didn't have to as Klaus spoke up.“It's late Kayla, go to bed”“Please,” I whispered, my voice trembling. “I just need to—”“No.” he didn't even let me finish taking my arm and leading me out of the gym. “I'll sleep in your room tonight. I had a long day and my bed is cold”The corners of my lips twitched but I forced down the smile, I was happy he would sleep in tonight but I just wished he would let me learn.Once we got to the room, he helped me change into my nightgown and slid next to me wearing only shorts, his arm wrapped around me, his fingers tracing slow circles on my skin.You’ve been through enough.”“I just—” My throat tightened. “My mother... She told me things. About my wolf, about the people after me.” I turned my head, eyes searching his face in the dim light.His hand stilled for a moment before continuing its path over my arm. “If they come for you, they’ll regre

Kayla's POV“Please send me back! I still have a lot to ask please”The seer shook her head. “I'm sorry Kayla but I can't, defying the laws of nature always comes with a price. We are not meant to communicate with the dead. You managed to twice, a third time is way too risky.” She stood up, stepping away from my hold and I sighed in defeat as I rubbed at the faint glow still lingering from the rune on my hand.“You can still use whatever she said to help you, what can you recall?”I took a deep breath, the memory of my mother’s voice still echoing in my ears. “She spoke to me about my wolf... about how it's powerful. She said people would come for me because of it.”The Seer’s brows furrowed slightly, her fingers tracing the edges of her table as if deep in thought. “There are a few wolves, very few, whose auras can be stolen. If you carry that power, then it’s no wonder the rogues are after you. They would want it for themselves.”“So, that’s what this is about? They want to take my

Kayla's POV“Yes, my gift from the pack guards to you so I won’t turn the pack upside down searching for the number of my kid, when she’s just cooking or doing whatever it is you do” he teased and I couldn’t help but smile.“Kids” I corrected, taking the phone out of the box. I looked up and noticed he was nervous. “Kids?” He echoed.“We’re not just having one child” I whispered, pausing for dramatic effect. “We’re having twins.” For a brief second, Klaus was completely still. His breath caught as the realization dawned on him. His eyes widened, shock flickering across his face before a smile slowly spread on his lips.“Twins?” His voice held an unfamiliar excitement, like he couldn’t quite believe it. “Yes, twins! Two lives growing inside me” I replied, trying to sound happy despite my heavy heart. He stepped closer, cupped my face in his hands, his thumb gently brushing my cheek. “You’re carrying two?” He let out a surprised laugh. “We’re having twins!” “There’s more.” His ha

Kayla's POV “Don't say that Kayla, I should have recognized one of them, I am the reason they came for you," he muttered, almost to himself, his hand curling into a fist by his side. "If I hadn’t—" "You can’t keep doing this," I interrupted, stepping forward. "This isn’t all on you." “It is. I wronged them, and now they want revenge. You’re in the middle because of me." “It wasn’t just about you, they knew things about when I left the pack... about my mother." His brow furrowed, confusion briefly replacing the guilt. I raised my sleeve, revealing the mark on my arm showing him the rune. "One of them recognized this. They mentioned her like they knew she marked me Klaus. This goes deeper than just revenge against you." He stopped pacing, his eyes dropping to the mark on my skin. “Your mother did this?" His voice was low, almost a growl, but I nodded. "She did. It’s complicated, the men didn't hurt me, not physically. They made this chant… I can't explain it but it's not you, Kl
