The Lycan King's Mate Chapter 17
Stefan’s POV. She couldn’t eat anything from the kitchen, even after Vicky came into the building to her, all she cared about was Katherine leaving the house as soon as possible. It’s been two days since the wedding and she still couldn’t associate with anyone in the house like she used to. I had so much on my mind to let her know and also had so much she needed to also tell me about. I tried to knock on her door since the early morning sun had risen and was already dispersing its rays. There was nothing more important than having my kid sister back to her senses because I needed to talk to her. “Open up Laura, aren't you going to come out and speak to me? Come on sister, you can’t leave like this forever, you have to socialize at least.” I called out. While I knocked, Vicky came across me and decided to take on from where I had left off. She knocked and pleaded Laura came out. “Laura?! Laura! Come on, open up, we need you to out of there, please, there’s no need to starve yourse

Lyra’s pov Helga’s footsteps seemed to ring out as she marched in front, posture straight with her face as stern as ever. I trailed behind, feeling every inch of my body ache from hours on end of hard work. My clothes were reduced to rags and I could feel the filth sticking to my skin, a reminder of the punishment I had to endure nowadays. I could see other people who worked in the packhouse looking handsome and beautiful and they smelled better than I did while I looked like the filth of the pack. I was treated like one so it wasn’t far-fetched to look like it. At the top of the stairs, Helga stopped and indicated with a nod of her head towards the end of the corridor. “You go meet the Alpha,” she said with a stern voice, “And don’t even think of keeping him waiting.” I felt my throat tighten, it was so dry I could hardly swallow. “Yes, Helga,” I answered in a low voice. She gave me a look that said so much before she turned and left for the corridor leading to a balcony. I took

Lyra’s povI stood outside, staring at my dark fingernails which had pieces of dirt in them as I could see my bruised knees from my height.I could hear all the alpha could say from the room as I held back the tears threatening to burst out."See to it that she does what I have asked her to do,” the alpha said as my heart sank again. "I will not have anyone, no matter what their rank, believe they can defy me or my decisions."I made fists and swallowed the dryness in my throat as I stood outside the room.“If she defies you, whip her. It’s that simple. Don’t use the normal whip, use the whips for horses and cows.”“But sir…” Helga interjected. “Wouldn’t that hurt the young lady? You can see that she has so many bruises and I just want to let you know that if we hit her even more she could bleed out.”This was supposed to be enough to tell the alpha that he had crossed the line and he needed to chill a bit, but what he did next shocked me.I heard his hand bang on his table as his gro

Lyra’s povHer arms were crossed and her smile was one of disgust. “Where do you think you’re going?” she mocked.I stopped, trying to find my voice. “I… I need to go to my room.” My voice was barely above a whisper. “I haven’t had a bath in days. Please, just a moment so I can clean myself.”Anna’s smile grew bigger as she tilted her head. “Oh? Really? You want a bath?” She turned back to Helga–who stood behind me looking mean as ever and said sweetly, “Helga, have you been pouring cold water on her every morning as I have told you?”“Yes,” Helga replied, deadpan. “Every morning to wake her up from her sleep.”Anna turned back to me, her eyes bright with malice. “There,” she said, spreading her arms as if it had all been a riddle and she had found the answer. “You have all the washing you need, don’t you?”I could feel the lump lodging itself deeper into my throat as fresh, hot tears welled in my eyes. “Please…” My voice wavered under the pressure. “Please, can I just change? I’ve…I’

Lyra’s povMy stomach growled angrily as I stepped into the packhouse. The delicious scent of food washed over me, and the all too familiar pang of hunger twisted my insides. It had been hours since I had eaten anything, and seeing the servants all gathered around, laughing and eating, made the emptiness in my stomach almost unbearable.I looked around and spotted Helga, at the service counter, dishing food onto plates for the other slaves. My knees felt rubbery but I managed to make my way over to her. Noticing me she turned her head and stared blankly.“What is it now, Lyra?” she asked, sounding exasperated.I knew begging her was the only way to get to her ego. “I need food, please. I haven’t eaten in days and I’m really hungry.”Her lips twisted into a cruel smile. “Just stand in the back,” she replied motioning to the rear of the room, “I’ll get you when I’ve gotten everyone else.”I nodded in gratitude, too tired to respond. Making my way through a sea of scrubbing women, I slip

Authors povThe warm glow of the lamp on his bedside table spilt across Derrick’s desk as he reclined. Papers were strewn in small heaps across its surface, all of them open or bearing the marks and underlinings of close, exhaustive reading. Not a muscle moved in the man’s face, not even when hefty sounds made him turn from what he was reading as this was equally important.Anna was getting ready for bed, carefully untying the ribbons that held her gown together behind her back and humming a wordless lullaby as she smiled at herself for achieving what so many women out there couldn’t get.“Have you moved your things into the closet?” The alpha asked with a gaunt voice as the woman nodded.“I have. “Your closet space has so much space that I could get lost in there.”The alpha smiled but it didn’t reach his eyes. “What’s mine is yours, baby.”Suddenly, there was a loud rap on the door as Anna stopped what she was doing with Derrick doing the same with his papers.He looked at Anna and

Authors povThe battlefield was cast in the cold light of the moon, thick with blood and howls. The wolves were losing this war. They just didn’t have the strength or numbers of the Lycans. Each swing and swipe was a bit too desperate as the lycans who were sure of their strength tore through Derrick’s soldiers like butter.In the fray of the fight, hooves of a horse hammered against dirt. It was a heavy sound that drew attention. The Lycans twisted their heads; their ears flickered back as they started to cheer the person on the horse the wolves around shivered as they knew this fight was over.Greg, the ruthless Lycan King was here. He sat on a black warhorse, his armor shining so brightly under the moonlight that everyone couldn't help but squint. A long silvery cape billowed behind like a flag being thrown by the wind as he rode past them at an easy trot. It was almost too bright to look at him when his eyes, which happened to be glowing gold with power and mercilessness, scared

Lyra’s povI woke in the stable that morning feeling rather odd. My body hurt because I had worked it to death over the last few days – but it didn’t ache as much as it should as I had already started healing up. I dug my fingers into my sides and stretched out my arms before curling them back into my chest, rubbing at the sleep in my eyes with cupped palms. The light in there was soft and cool, streaming through the gaps between wooden slats – faintly grey and crisp.It took me a minute to work out where I was. If I was in my own room in the palace, by now someone should have tossed cold water on me and gotten me up that morning. But there had been no jug of water thrown over me this morning. It made me smile. Maybe I would start sleeping in the stable to have peace.I got to my feet and yawned as I removed pieces of straw that had clung to my body and clothes.I sighed as I thought of joining the main palace but I knew I had no choice. I would have to do it.I opened the door leadin

Lyra’s povAnna stared at me with such fury it almost knocked me back. I could see her raising the knife while threatening me as fear hit my chest. I held in my fear as I knew I wasn’t going to be scared of her anymore. I was done being afraid of her. No. It would not happen again.I held my full height and swallowed a gulp.“Did you hear me Lyra?” She asked as I sighed.“I’m not doing anything for you,” I said with a hard heart.Her expression immediately darkened. A twisted smile pulled at her lips, but it was not sweet—it held nothing but hate.“Excuse me?” She asked like she had not heard me well. “The hell did you just say to me?”I inhaled deeply and looked at her with a stern face, “I said that I wasn’t going to do anything for you. I’m done being your slave. I’m done.”The air around us suddenly got thick with rage before Anna lunged at me. I didn’t even have the time to jump out of the way as she grabbed me by the hair and pulled me into her. I tried to fight back before her
The Lycan King's Mate chapter 33
Authors povAnna balled up her fists, pushed away from the wall, and stormed down the corridor. This wasn’t over. She’d lost this time. But she wouldn’t stop until she’d gone farther than Lyra could ever have dreamed.Every step, every stair she climbed, her anger grew. If her charms didn’t work, she’d come up with something else. She always did.Anna got into her room and closed the door behind her with a slam. She fell against the door her chest was rising and falling with anger as she tried to hold her rage.She had failed to seduce King Greg, something no woman had ever failed to accomplish before him, and she wasn’t going to let that be the end of it. If not through charm, then what was so special about Lyra?She looked at the knife on her nightstand, an emblem of power in one’s final moments. It sat there silently whispering its deadly siren song. And she reached for it.But no, she stopped herself. Not yet at least.She couldn’t confront Lyra yet – not until she knew everything
The Lycan King's Mate Chapter 32
Author’s povAnna woke up that morning with a fire in her belly. She wasn’t going to let anyone, Lyra included, steal her thunder and take the life she had built for herself. Her pack, her power, her position—she was not going to lose it all without a fight.She sat up in bed and stretched her arms over her head before using one hand to rake through the curtain of perfectly styled blond hair falling around on the pillow behind her head as she wore a devilish smirk. Today would be different. Today she would regain control over everything she had lost.Anna stood up and went over to the mirror. She smiled at her reflection. The sexy curves, flawless skin, and confidence in her eyes. “You still got it…” she whispered as she slightly tilted her head to the side to get a better view of herself.There was no way Lyra was going to come in here and take King Greg away from her. Anna knew what kind of men like him wanted. Power. Beauty. Charm. And she had all three.Looking away from the mirro
The Lycan King's Mate chapter 31
Lyra’s povAs Helga stood up I couldn’t help but look at her in surprise, because a few days ago, she was one of the people who hated me and made my life miserable. But now she was sitting beside me like an angel and being so gentle. It was like I didn't even know her. I took a breath gathering up all the courage I had built inside my body because the question within me had been itching to come out since she had been in my room.“Helga.” My voice called out.“Yes?” She turned to look at me. It took me a while to take in deep breath before deciding to ask the question that has been tearing me apart from within.“Why are you treating me nicely?”She paused at the door, hand on the handle. She didn’t turn to look at me immediately, but I saw her shoulders rise and fall as she let out a long breath. Eventually, she glanced back at me with weary eyes.“I never wanted to hurt you,” she said, almost like she regretted her past actions. “But I had no choice. No other options. I was under orde

Lyra’s povWalking onto the balcony the cool breeze of the evening hit my skin, it did nothing to steady the storm inside me. King Greg stood at the edge looking out over his fields. His presence alone was adding to my unease and no matter how much I tried I couldn’t stop myself from slightly trembling as I placed my hands on the balcony.He flicked his hand towards a chair next to him indicating for me to sit. “Please.” His voice was calm yet carried unquestionable authority.I swallowed hard but took his word and sat, gripping the armrests of the low chair. My heartbeat was so fast in my chest that it almost felt like it was going to burst out. When would I ever get used to being in this position with him, in a way that got results for both of us?After what seemed like forever, he turned to me directly, his eyes drilling into mine. He reached out and traced my lips with his thumb and I almost flinched from the contact, sucking air instinctively through a held breath.He nodded, app
The Lycan King's Mate Chapter 29
Author’s povThe minute the meal was done, Greg the king got to his feet and waved everyone around away with his hand.“You can all go,” he said as they all scurried off. Lyra hurried to her feet as she was ready to leave when just as the alpha grabbed her by the wrist to stop her in her steps.“You…” he said to her in a deep voice with his gaze fixed on hers. “Stay.”Lyra’s breath hitched, but she nodded, trying to mask her nervousness. She was scared beyond words.With the maids and guards gone, yea was now alone with the lycan king as she held her breath to prevent herself from falling to the ground. Her heart pounded in her chest as she gulped once or twice to control its beating sound.Greg tipped his head, interest pulling at his brows. “Are you scared of me, Lyra?”Lyra’s throat dried up. “Yes,” she managed to rasp.Greg’s smirk broadened. “Good,” he repeated, letting go of her wrist. “Fear is what makes people obey. Just as I’ve given you all of this doesn’t mean I can’t take
The Lycan King's Mate chapter 28
Authors povKing Greg gazed down from his balcony of the grand packhouse. The sun was starting to set, painting everything in a golden light which only made Greg's eyes become piercing daggers for the wolves that were labouring in the fields below. He made sure to scrutinize all they did while looking at them. He wasn’t going to give any of them breaks. No. They don’t deserve it.Greg smiled as he saw them afraid of displeasing him as he liked how it was going. These wolves needed to be taught who was at the top of the food chain and it was the Lycans at the top of that chain."Has dinner been prepared?" he asked in his deep, commanding voice.The maids looked at each other nervously. They were all clearly frightened, and their hands shook as they clumsily twisted the aprons around their waists.Finally, one of the shorter maids, a pretty young girl with unusually wide-set eyes and a mass of thick black hair, stepped forward and stammered out her answer. "N–Not yet, Your Majesty," she

Lyra’s povThe minute we got back to the throne room, I held the blue gown to my chest and felt its fabric being so soft to me. It was still like a movie to me as I couldn’t behave this was truly happening to me.When we reached the palace, the Alpha was waiting. He looked at me and saw how I was holding onto the gown. I could sss him roll his eyes before he spoke.“Give me one good reason why you are holding it like that?” He asked in a low voice as I gulped. I expected him to yell at me but he didn’t and it made me even more scared than I would usually be.I stuttered. “I-I’m sorry my lord.” Before I knew it, he turned to the guard standing beside me. “Go back in there and grab all of her clothes from where she took this and bring them out here too,” he told him. “let me go through them myself and choose a better one for you. I’m sure there should be more that should suit you.”I gasped in shock. “Alpha—”He held up his hand to silence me. “Everything the lady owns, you will take
The Lycan King's Mate Chapter 26
Lyra’s povI was standing before the alpha while my hands were shaking as I couldn’t look at him. I was so afraid I kept my eyes on the ground. The alpha was not an ordinary Lycan. He was a monster. No one could tell what he was thinking and it was scary to see that this error had taken over the pack.But I could feel his eyes roaming over me. Eating up every inch of my battered self. My scraggly form, clad awkwardly in this dirty skin and poorly fitted in the tattered rags of clothing that hung limply along my undernourished body. My hair was knotted with dirt and looked like a place for a wild bird to nest in. I was not impressive to look at and I knew it.He waved me closer, and I paused before moving hesitantly toward him. I tried to steady my heart as it raced I didn’t know what he wanted or what he would do to me.“Why are you dressed like a slave?” he demanded.I gulped, lowering my head. “Because I’m a slave, Alpha,” I whispered.For a while there was silence, and then he spok
