The Lycan King’s Destiny 0050
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
The Lycan King’s Destiny 0055
Kayla's POV“This… isn't funny… don't do this please” Not sure if anyone could hear me. I pressed my back against the door, my vision was tainted and I could barely see a thing.I couldn't tell where the fire started, but there was a strong smell of petrol that filled the air, and my throat began to tighten almost instantly. Whoever did this… it wasn’t an accident. Someone had set this room on fire purposefully.Did Kain do this? Was that why he mentioned the room knowing I would walk into his trap?Why go through all this trouble so he could burn me alongside his brother's first mate's memory?I couldn't think straight. Luckily, the room was large but it would only be a matter of time before the fire would reach me.Fear crawled through my veins forcing me toward the door, slamming my fists against the hard surface.“Help! Please, someone!” My voice cracked, coughing frantically, the stench clawing at my lungs swallowed by the roar of the growing flames. The air was thickening with s

Kayla's POV“Kayla…”I turned quickly, breathless, my head snapped to the side, my eyes scanning the room simultaneously but all I could see was darkness.I couldn't feel my body, my legs, my arms, I couldn't even speak.“Help…”The voice came again. This time, it was so soft, almost fragile, like a breeze that touched the edges of my mind. I squinted, trying to see something, anything. But nothing moved except that sound, like it was coming from everywhere and nowhere all at once.Then, in the darkness, I saw her. A woman, her hair dark like shadows, wild and desperate. Her face was etched with sorrow, her lips trembling as she pleaded for something. "Please, my baby... save my child." Her voice shattered in the stillness, full of agony. I felt it ripple through me, her grief, her fear.I reached out toward her, but the darkness swallowed her whole, her cries fading into nothing.And then it was gone. All of it.I shot up, gasping, my skin damp with sweat. My body felt heavy, like I
The Lycan King’s Destiny 0057
Kayla’s POVThe dagger slipped from my hands falling with a thud. I stepped away from it quickly, feeling the locket in my hand. I had to get rid of it.I dashed out of the room, heading to mine, my fingers trembling slightly as I slid the locket into a drawer. It felt like it burned against my skin. I pressed my palms against my temples, squeezing my eyes shut. I had to convince myself that maybe, just maybe, I wasn’t losing my mind.I took a deep breath. "It’s just the fire," I muttered under my breath. "It triggered something. I almost died, and now my mind is playing tricks on me."But the memory of that woman, her haunting voice, lingered like smoke in the corners of my mind. No matter how hard I tried to push it away, she was there, waiting. Pleading.A sudden knock startled me, breaking my thoughts. My heart lurched, but I forced myself to act natural. I opened the door to see a maid standing there, her head bowed slightly."The King sent me," she spoke softly, keeping her gaze
