Dane

I sat behind the desk of my study room with a bottle of bourbon in my hand. I stared at the bourbon through the glass, the afternoon sun reflecting on the bottle and making the amber liquid glow. I wondered why I was at it again. Drinking. It was the only thing that calmed me down when I was angry it did.

My knuckles ached in pain as I opened the bourbon bottle. My mind went back to the incident with Finn I could smell his blood on my palms. The putrid metallic smell filled my nose together with the strong smell of the bourbon. The latter was a soothing feeling compared to the former. It was the only thing I wanted to smell now.

I took a long gulp of the liquor, the alcohol burning my throat as it washed down to my stomach. My stomach churned and burned as the alcohol hit. I took the bottle away from my lips and sighed. I ran my fingers through my hair, staring at the window and the afternoon sun which bathed my whole study room with its intense golden light.

My mind went back

    LusiaThree days later. The darkness was uncomfortable and I was struggling to wake up. I was numb to my surroundings and couldn’t move a muscle. It felt like I was frozen in a particular spot plagued with a darkness I couldn't overcome. Then slowly, I felt warmth around me, and above me, a light shone on me. I could feel my body moving. My once-frozen muscles felt alive as I moved them. It looked like the light made everything feel better. And then, the light became brighter and it blinded me. ***I blinked awake, my body heavy, as if it had been hollowed out and filled with lead. My muscles felt stiff like I had been in a particular position for hours. Maybe days. I tried to move but my muscles cried out in pain, pinning me down to the bed where I found myself in. The room around me was a blank slate, stark and unfamiliar, with bare stone walls and a single window that let in a sliver of pale light. My head felt foggy like I’d been wading through mud, and a dull ache throbbed s

    DaneI dropped the weight on the marble floor and sat back on the bench. My hands were trembling, and my skin was damp with sweat. My breathing was heavy as I stared at the marble floor. I was exhausted from lifting weights. It had been a while since I came to the gym. I needed to get my mind off her. That was why I was here. But I gave up too soon. My muscles were crying out and aching in pain. They weren’t used to this level of stress. My whole body was drenched with sweat as I sat on the bench. I was thinking. Thinking about her. She should have woken up by now. But I didn’t want to go and see her. I was scared of being disappointed. Disappointed that she would still be unconscious. It had been three days since the healer told me that she would see what she could do to help Lusia awaken her wolf. The concoction should be ready by now. The only thing left was for Lusia to wake up. But that seemed like a bigger task than I originally thought. I picked up the towel that sat beside

    DaneThe door creaked open behind me and the guards walked into the room. I smiled as I stared at the healer. When her eyes drifted to the men behind me, she realized what was going on. I was going to lock her away and make sure that she paid for what she did to Lusia. There was nobody that was going to escape my wrath. I was the Lycan king. The king of this castle, and nobody had the right to touch what was mine. The room went dead quiet except for the healer’s shaky gasps as she knelt there, clutching her throat. My hands were still trembling from the rage coursing through me, and I could feel my pulse hammering in my ears. The guards barged in, their boots thudding against the stone floor. I was infuriated that they had taken so long to get here, but it didn’t matter now. It was soon going to be over. I was going to make sure that she suffered for what she did. The same way Kiara and Keon suffered. “Your majesty,” the guards greeted in unison behind me. “You summoned us.”I poi

    LusiaThis was the worst time for something like this to happen. There was no way that this was happening. I was getting into my heat. I could feel the churning sensation in my stomach and warmth beginning to spread across my thighs. I had just woken up, and already I was in heat. That feeling was so bizarre. Maybe it was because I was with King Dane. He looked gorgeous as he sat beside the bed. His jet-black hair was ruffled and a caterer across his forehead. His usual icy blue eyes were warm with emotions as he held my hand. This was a beautiful feeling. One that I didn’t want to end. His hand gave me warmth. It was nothing like I had felt in a long time. It made me realize that I missed him so much. I was interrupted by the trembling of my legs. It was getting intense. I had to do something about it but what? It would be insane to ask King Dane to help me. But I had no choice. He was the only one who could help me. And he was the only one that my body was feening for. “What is w

    Dane My heart was thumping hard against my chest after I fed her the last spoon of the porridge. She had permitted me to show her. There was no greater feeling than that. I missed touching her skin while I scrubbed it slowly. I kissed the feeling of how soft they could be. Now she was awake, I got to do that again. And she, of course, had gladly accepted. I wasted no time in making my move. After placing the tray aside, I slid my arms beneath her, one under her knees, the other cradling her back, and lifted her from the chair. She was light, lighter than I’d expected, though I suppose I shouldn’t have been surprised. She had barely eaten before tonight. Her head tilted against my chest, and I could feel the warmth of her breath against my chest, soft and steady. The fire crackled in the hearth behind us as I turned toward the door, her body settling into mine like she belonged there. I didn’t rush. No point in it. The castle was quiet this time of night, and I wanted her to feel

    DaneI stared at her in shock. The question has thrown me off my feet. It wasn’t something I expected. Moreover, I thought that she would forget about that since I didn’t give her an answer then. But she looked hellbent on finding out what she meant to me. I had been here before and I didn’t like it. It was the first time she had told me. I was shocked just like I am now, and still, I didn’t have the right words to convey to her. I was somewhat infuriated by this. Why would she bring up something like that now? Or was it because of the way I treated her since she woke up? I had bathed and clothed her, making sure that she was comfortable. I knew that she had suffered under the hands of her brother while I had been kept busy purposely by Kiara’s plan. I was trying to make it up to her by giving her this luxury. And now she felt like I was doing this for something as disgusting as love. I felt insulted by this, but I also felt a churn in my stomach. The one that appeared every single

    Dane“Come in,” I ordered. The door swung open and a guard stepped into the room. I recognized him. He was the one I had sent out earlier this morning to go find me another healer. I was surprised that he had returned so soon. Maybe time had flown by more than I expected. “Your majesty,” the guard said with a bow. “You sent me on a mission and I had returned with good news. I found another healer, an experienced one at the coast of the Nightlight Pack. He is here and waiting for you in the throne room.”I smiled at that. I was happy that he had been able to do his job impeccably. He didn’t waste much time than I expected. I nodded at that. “Thank you. Tell him I shall see him shortly,” I said. The guard nodded and bowed after that, leaving the room. When the door closed behind me, Lusia finally let go of me. I turned to her and she was standing by herself, her eyes facing the floor. She was feeling too timid to look at me. “Your healer is here,” I announced. “We should go and se

    LusiaFive months later. The castle loomed ahead as we drove through the woods. I could feel a churning sensation in my stomach. I was back here. Back at where I had left a few months ago. It was almost unrecognizable. I had been away for so long that nothing felt real. Beside me at the backseat of the SUV, was Florence. She was quietly watching me as I gazed at the castle wondering if it was the right thing to return here. She has helped me a lot during the last five months. It was because of her I found the redemption I had been seeking strongly since I left the Silvermoon pack. I had followed King Dane here in search of freedom and redemption. And I had finally found both of them. And not only that, I was now stronger than before. I was a changed person. I was certain that I was going to surprise King Dane. King Dane. My stomach churned again as I remembered his face. I had been in uncontrollable pain while I had been away from him. Every single day was torture without him.

    LusiaI could feel the tension in the room. All eyes were on me. The elders of the council, the woman who was kneeling on the wooden floor, and most importantly Dane. He wasn't just staring at me. He was glaring. I could feel my heart thumping hard against my chest. I had heard everything that woman had said about that night. And it was weird because I couldn’t remember anything that happened that night. It all seemed like a blur to me. But there was one thing I remembered perfectly and that was my red heel. It was indeed the heel I had worn back here. And how it had ended up at the pack that night, I wasn’t so sure. But I couldn’t let them know this. I was scared that Dane wasn’t going to believe anything that I had said. And so the only thing I could do in this tense situation was to laugh. My laugh cracked into the silence filling the whole room. Everybody looked at me in confusion as I laughed out. I knew it was the last thing that they were expecting from me. I laughed out so l

    DaneI’d been sitting there, watching Luisa tower over that sniveling councilman, her fingers digging into his chin like she could crush his skull with a thought. The silver dagger gleamed in her hand, blood streaking down its edge, and the room stank of fear and iron. She was a storm, wild and untamed, and I couldn’t look away. Not because I was impressed, though she’d probably gut me if I admitted it, but because I was trying to figure out what the hell she was playing at. She’d always been reckless, but this? This was something else. Then that guard barged in with his report, holding up that damn red heel, and everything shifted. The air grew thick, like the moment before a lightning strike, and I couldn’t shake the feeling that whatever came next was going to change things. Permanently.I ordered the woman brought in, my voice cutting through the murmurs rippling across the council chamber. The guard hustled out, and I leaned back in my chair, arms crossed, eyes flicking between

    LusiaThe cries of the councilman filled the air as he fell to the ground with a thud. I recalled that sound and I loved it. The sound of pain. It reminded me of the same pain I felt when I first shapeshifted. The feeling of your bones shredding and reshaping itself to take the shape of a cannibal. The bone-cracking moment when you are almost fully transformed and the electricity flowing through your veins as your body’s physiology and anatomy changes to take the shape of your inner spirit; your wolf. That was what that scream reminded me of. He was shrieking in pain and the rest of the Elders in the council sat down quietly watching this. Some of them were terrified of what I had done, but I was enjoying this. I was showing them that I wasn’t weak which was something that Dane would have wanted. He had told me that if I wanted him to love me, I would have to get stronger and be ready to stand up for myself. That was the last thing he had said to me before I had left the pack. I coul

    LusiaTwo weeks later. Maybe it was a bad idea. Being Dane’s mistress. The first thing he had told when he stepped out of the bathroom was to stop calling him King or address him royally in private. It had been awkward for the first few days but then I got the hang of it. It was also awesome because now, I was more involved in the Ironclaw pack than ever before. When I first came here, I felt like a total stranger. I knew that I didn’t belong here. I was just a werewolf living among Lycans. I was nowhere near their levels. But then, that gap had lessened. And it was all thanks to Florence who had helped me. Dane had taken me out to dinners and meetings. I was more shocked when he told me that he had approved of me being a member of the council. It felt weird because there were the people that had told him to get rid of me many months ago. And now, it felt weird that I was a part of them. It didn’t look right, but there was nothing I could say. I wanted it. Why? Because I wanted to

    DaneThe morning sun washed into the room bathing it with its golden light. The air was warm and the exuberant chirping from the birds made me realize that morning was here. The day had started, but somehow I felt myself stuck in last night. It was perfect. I had been yearning for Lusia for so long. And after what looked like decades of waiting, she had finally returned. Of course, the first thing we did was to take each other’s clothes off. It showed how much she had missed me. I had been afraid that something bad would have happened to her while she was away. I thought that she wouldn’t be able to return because the training would have been intense. Or father when she awakens her wolf, she would go in search of her mate. But yet, she returned to me. This should have sent a strong message to me but instead, I was still worried that she would leave me for a man I wasn’t sure was going to accept her for who she was. I wanted Lusia to be happy. She deserved it for everything that happ

    DaneI threw her on the bed as we arrived at my room and she landed on it with a smile. The evening sun washed into the room, bathing it with its golden light. The moment felt immaculate and ethereal. I didn’t want this to end. I never realized that I missed her this much. She was mine, and I was going to make sure that she didn’t forget that. But for how long could I keep this up? I couldn't stop her if her mate came looking for her. She longed for someone to love her and I was afraid I couldn't give her that kind of love. If she did find her mate, she was going to leave me for him. And there was nothing I could do that was going to stop her. The only thing I could do now was enjoy the night we were about to spend together. “Come on, Your Highness. Show me what you got,” she teased with a smile. I laughed and climbed the bed slowly, moving towards her. The evening sun’s golden light bathed the bed making it warm. I stared at her, our faces barely apart. She looked gorgeous. I could

    LusiaThe air around the room was awkward. King Dane’s words hung in the air. The council that was still in the room seemed to be waiting for something to happen. I could tell from how dense the air in the room had become. Dane was waiting for me to answer his questions. I could see the emotions glittering in his eyes. He was indeed happy to see me. But I didn’t know how to answer the question. I had missed him for so long. I had waited so long for this moment to see him. The moment to graze in his presence once more. I was tired of being alone. There was only one person who made my heart thump this way, and it was King Dane. I was happy to be home. “I am doing well, Your Majesty. All thanks to you,” I finally replied. King Dane smiled at me and gave me a nod. Then, he turned to the council who were watching us in silence and his smile disappeared. His brows barrows and his lips bent into a frown. He seemed agitated by their presence. “Leave. All of you,” he ordered, his voice as
