-Daphne-

Jackson had to undergo minor surgery, but the doctor assured me he would recover quickly. It wasn’t long before he woke up, and all of us were there for him. His eyes found me first, and he smiled sweetly.

“Hey,” he whispered.

“How are you feeling?” I asked.

“Sleepy.”

“Yeah, the drugs are wearing off slowly.”

“Mmm, wonderful,” he murmured.

Jackson’s parents moved closer, and I let them have a moment with him as I motioned for Roman to follow me out into the hallway. We stopped a little further away from the others.

“I can’t believe they did this,” I said, my voice low but fierce.

“How do you want to handle it?”

“I want them in jail until they die! If I weren’t such a peaceful person, I would hunt them down myself and end them!”

Roman smiled at me, a proud look on his face. Confused, I glanced at him.

“What?” I asked.

“I just never heard you speak about them like that before.”

“Yeah, well, they haven’t tried to kill my mate before. Those bastards!”

He nodded slightly. “I will m

  • The Lycan King's Scarred Mate   Chapter 38: Their New Life

    -Jackson-Daphne had her fears, but after I recovered and her parents received a proper sentence locking them away for years, she stepped up to the role of luna. I had never seen her flourish like this before. It was as if a hidden side of her had been waiting to emerge, ready to show what she could truly accomplish. We offered the pack members a choice, and almost everyone preferred to merge rather than remain independent.Daphne and those who chose to join her moved to our territory, but she still retained ownership of her parents’ former land and house. She made it clear that anyone who wanted to stay could do so, but they would remain under both our control. Everything was going great between us.I watched from a distance as my mate returned from a late run. Daphne smiled brightly as she saw me on the porch, and I pulled her closer, kissing her deeply.“Hey,” I whispered.“Missed me?” she chuckled.“Very much. We hardly do anything but work lately,” I admitted.“Yeah, what else sho

    -Daphne-Two years later.“Jackson?” I called as I walked into my mate’s office. We often spent time together in this space, but I had woken up late today. He lifted his head and smiled at me, his expression brightening as I entered.“Hey,” he replied, his smile growing wider the closer I got.I walked around the desk, grinning playfully. As he reached for me, trying to pull me closer, I playfully moved away, leaving him looking puzzled.“Can’t I touch you now?” he chuckled.“Not yet.”“Oh, are we playing?”“Yup, my own little special game," I admitted.“Is that the game where you tease me mercilessly with your mouth and tongue?” he asked with a smirk.“No," I replied.“Where you strip and drive me crazy?”“Nope.”“I’m getting confused now,” he said, making me laugh. “What kind of game are we playing?”“A guessing game," I revealed.“Okay,” he replied. “Is there a prize for me to win?”He smiled mischievously, and I nodded.“I’m all in, then," he said.“Tell me the first thing that com

  • The Lycan King's Scarred Mate   Prologue

    *Warning! Dark start, description of death. Skip this chapter if you are a sensitive reader*-Anastasia-As the house erupted in chaos, I covered my ears with my hands. I had been told I couldn’t scream. I had to be as quiet as the dead. But I was so scared. My small heart pounded in my chest, and tears streamed down my face. I bit my lip to stifle any noise, but small whimpers escaped anyway. The screams and growls filled the house, and I squeezed my eyes shut. “Please… go away…” I whispered.I knew I shouldn’t speak, but I just wanted it all to stop. I wanted everything to be quiet… I wanted my mom. I longed for her safe arms and for my dad to come and tell me everything would be all right. But neither of them came. Time passed… so much time passed. Then, suddenly, everything went silent.I couldn’t understand what had happened. I stopped rocking back and forth and slowly lowered my hands. I glanced around the dark closet before finally taking the chance to push the door open and pe

    I stood in front of the mirror, water still dripping from my body. The room was filled with steam after my long bath. I always loved the water hot—almost scalding. I reached out and wiped the steam from the mirror, revealing my reflection—naked, water still trickling down my skin. I turned my head and lifted my hand, brushing it over the burned flesh that covered most of my left arm and part of my chest.“Luna?” A knock came at the door. It was one of the omegas who worked in the house. Mira always checked on me when my baths stretched too long.“Luna, are you all right?” Mira’s voice came through the door again.“I’m fine, Mira,” I replied, my voice as cold and empty as always.“Shall I come in?”“No, I’m coming out.”“All right, Luna. I’ve prepared your dress for tonight. I’ll lay it on the bed.”“Please do.”“Would you like help with your hair?” she asked.“No, I’ll manage,” I called back.“All right. Call me if you need anything,” Mira said.“Thanks, Mira,” I replied.Once she left

    -Roman-I stood on the expansive balcony facing the front of the enormous mansion, watching as people streamed inside. Their voices floated up to me, carried by the wind. There were so many of them, all expecting great things for tonight—a new queen. Daphne hadn’t officially been named queen yet. I hadn’t marked her either. Tonight was just her introduction as my queen. Much still needed to be prepared for the official ceremony, and then there was the marking.I was still young for a lycan, though, not yet thirty—just twenty-eight. I knew many might find it strange that I was so quick to choose a queen. Why not wait a little longer? What was the rush? I was a young king, having taken the throne before I even turned seventeen. But why shouldn’t I take a queen fast? I knew how short life could be.“Father?” I called, searching for him throughout the castle where we lived. But he was no longer the same man now that his true mate had died in a rogue attack. That’s why I knew I had to keep

  • The Lycan King's Scarred Mate   Chapter 3: Party

    -Anastasia-I came on my own tonight. It had been so long since I had attended a party, but I couldn’t let this opportunity slip through my hands. So I held my head high as I felt the eyes of others on me when I walked in. People whispered and murmured as I passed by, and I knew what they were saying. My scars…“Is that her?”“Have you ever seen her before?”“Do you know what happened to her?”These were the questions I heard mumbled and exchanged among the crowd as I made my way toward the ballroom. I might find nothing tonight—there were so many people, so many smells. It was hard to distinguish one from another. But that didn’t mean I would give up.“Champagne?”An omega held out a tray filled with champagne glasses, and I gratefully took one, sipping as I watched her leave before joining the larger crowd. I kept close to the walls, not wanting to get caught in the middle of wolves and lycans. It was so clear who was who.The wolves were not only smaller, but the lycans clustered to

    -Roman-Daphne and I finally made our way downstairs, joining the party. We were greeted left and right by everyone in attendance, and as we entered the grand ballroom, it was clear that the real show was about to begin. We had barely taken a few steps when someone called out to us, eager to talk and get to know Daphne better, as if they hadn’t known her forever. It all felt very… fake, really. But Daphne was the perfect hostess and queen.“Roman!” Suddenly, I heard a familiar voice call out to me, and a smile spread across my lips as I saw Shane approaching. He was a distant relative, but I always referred to him as my cousin, and he did the same. As we got closer, we hugged. Then he pulled back, looking at me with a grin.“Always clean up nicely,” he teased.“Oh, so you think I look good?” I joked.He had his friends behind him, and I greeted them all as they congratulated me. Shane turned his attention to Daphne, who stood a little nervously behind me. She knew them, of course, but

    -Jackson-I was on the ground, bleeding and completely beaten. I had fought before—had my fair share of bruises and close calls—but this felt personal. The pain was different. I wasn’t sure how many had attacked me, but the unmistakable scent of lycan filled the room, signaling that these were no ordinary wolves. I had managed to take down one of them, who now lay motionless not far from me, but the others loomed above, and I couldn’t understand why they had stopped kicking me.But suddenly, the door opened, and I saw polished shoes approaching. Straining to keep my eyes open, I let them wander up to see Daphne’s father standing before me.“You’ve caused me a lot of problems,” he accused.I tried to speak, but all I could do was cough up blood.“I need to have you removed so I can bring my daughter home.”Hadn’t he already tried to ruin her with those rumors? Why would he want to kill me now?“She… is… mine,” I croaked.“Not for long.”I watched in horror as one of the others handed hi

    -Jackson-Daphne was initially scared as we began to dance, but when I asked her what it mattered what other people thought, something shifted in her. She started to enjoy our night. I led her through two dances before we finally joined the party and began to mingle.Not many people wanted to talk to us, but I knew some individuals would never be swayed. They thrived on drama and reveled in the rumors, but we wouldn’t let that bother us. Daphne and I were happy together, and nothing could ruin that.“I see my parents,” Daphne mumbled as she sipped her drink.After a while, we had retreated to the bar to enjoy some time together.“You want to talk to them now?” I inquired.I knew it was the smart move, but Daphne shook her head.“Not yet.”“Well, how about you wait here while I go to the bathroom for a moment, and then we can face them?” I suggested.“Yeah, let’s wait a little. I’ll be right here,” she assured me.I leaned closer and kissed her before downing my drink, then I walked awa

    -Daphne-Jackson came up behind me as I stood in the closet, fully dressed. He kissed my neck, filling me with a sense of calm and security as I felt his powerful body pressed against mine. I let out a soft moan as he kissed the mark on my shoulder.My dress was sleeveless and strapless, and my hair was up, making it clear to everyone that I was taken. I knew this pleased my mate immensely. It was a silent statement to anyone who dared to approach me. I squeezed his hands on my stomach before turning around to face him.“You ready?” he asked.“Not really,” I admitted.“Why not?”“I’m so nervous. I’ve never stood up to them before.”He smiled softly and kissed me. “You’re not alone.”I smiled back, finally noticing how incredibly handsome he looked in a suit. I ran my hands down his arms and back up, and I knew he noticed the shift in me.“Like what you see?”“Very much,” I confessed.“You look amazing too,” he complimented, making me grin wider as warmth flushed my cheeks.“I love you,

    -Jackson-Later in the evening, as rain began to pour, my family gathered in one of the living rooms. It was just my parents, Daphne, Ana, Roman, and me. We sipped drinks, munched on snacks, and chatted, and I genuinely enjoyed being there with them. I loved them all so much, and when I turned to look at my mate, I felt it in my heart too. I was falling for Daphne.“So, when are you heading home?” I asked Ana.“Oh, you want to get rid of me that fast, huh?” she teased.We all chuckled.“Just asking,” I replied.“No, you’re trying to kick me out,” she teased.I shook my head, but she finally turned serious. “No, we’re going home tomorrow to start setting everything up for the party.”“It’ll be the party from hell,” Daphne said.“No, it’ll be fine,” Roman assured her.“Is there anything special we should be prepared for?” my mother inquired.“Just that my family can be mean,” Daphne said.“We all need to be confident and relaxed,” Roman advised. “It wouldn’t surprise me if the rumors hav

    -Daphne-Roman and I walked side by side outside. Jackson and Ana had decided to spend some time together after Roman asked if he could have a moment with me. I was grateful he had asked because I had missed my friend and needed his guidance.“So, how is it going?” Roman asked.“It’s… good,” I replied, searching for the right word. Even “good” couldn’t fully capture how wonderful I felt.When Roman noticed the smile on my lips, he began to smile too. “You look better.”“Better?” I echoed.“Taller,” he said.“Yeah, Jackson brings out something in me,” I admitted, feeling a rush of warmth at how my mate was transforming me for the better.“I wish I could have done more for you,” he said. “Being my queen was supposed to be your escape, but then Ana appeared, and you had to go home again.”“Roman, I don’t blame you for loving her,” I assured him.“No, but I feel bad that I couldn’t do more for you, that I allowed them to turn you into that person,” he confessed.“That person?” I questioned
