Liam's POV

I ran my hands over the lapels of my dark suit as the maids polished my shoe and dressed me up with shaky hands.

I watched and heard them gulp, each one of them afraid to meet my eyes. They kept their heads lowered and their hands moved in haste.

I noticed they were trying not to waste my time and I was pleased at how dedicated they were to serving me and making me comfortable but I didn't see the need to hurry today.

"Take your time,"

They jerked in shock at my voice but soon relaxed and bowed their heads before heeding to my advice

There was no need to rush me even as the ritual wouldn't commence without my presence, I still didn't want to go so early.

The Blood Moon Ritual was happening today. It was a day taken out for mates to find each other. This event happens every year but I have yet to find my mate.

Every year, I sat on my throne and watched the wolves find their mate while I, their King returned with no one by my side.

I felt like a personal Circus for the moon g

    Aurelia's POVI felt the air sucked out of my lungs as I stared into those dark eyes that seemed to scan me like I was a piece of art ready to be explored. I wasted no time doing the same.His black hair fell across one side of his face landing on his thick dark brows that furrowed slightly in shock. Those hard jawlines looked sharp enough to cut and his lips were full and inviting.His pheromones were slowly stroking my desire, wanting to fill me with need and longing. I glanced at his arms and admired his wide shoulders and his biceps. He was simply a work of art.His focus was on me and it felt as though I could feel his hands gliding under my clothes. My mate looked like a god on that throne and the way he stared at me left me feeling naked and bare before him.I found him, Mother. I thought to myself as I touched my necklace over my scarf. My lips curled in a smile and I took a step forward in his direction when someone leaned beside him.His eyes grew darker, forcing me to halt

    Aurelia's POVThe guards were shaking like a leaf and so was I.We were yet to lay eyes on him but his mere presence and his deep gruff voice was enough to shake us down to our very core."W-What do we do?" One of the guards asked with a frightening tone. He sounded like he was about to piss himself."I've heard about the Purple Sun City. What if... What if the Lycan King-""Shut up! He is definitely too busy to worry about trivial matters like this!""Keep it together! We've come a long way searching for this bitch. We cannot return empty-handed-"They were still arguing when something, with the speed of light, moved past us.The wind blew up in my face, slamming me hard but it wasn't as hard as how three of the guards fell to the floor lifelessly."Wh-What was that!"One by one they dropped to the floor and soon it remained just me and the guard holding me as a shield.I was panting with my heart threatening to fly out. I couldn't recall that werewolves could move with the speed of

    Liam's POVAndre shut the door to my study with his hands over his mouth as he stared at me in shock."Swallow it," I turn away from him and head to where a bottle of scotch sat. I poured myself a drink and brought the glass to my lips, emptying the content in my mouth.Even after tasting the blood of trespassers-- If I could remember correctly, I bit one's head off-- I still wanted something down my throat."My Queen?" I mumbled to myself, tasting the word and shaking my head. "Did you, by any chance, smell the mate bond on her-""I apologise, my King. I was overjoyed when she said that," he placed his hands over his crotch area and lowered his head.He was much calmer now than when he blurted that out."But, was she telling the truth?""Oh, I see. We're acting rationally now, are we?" I cocked a brow and folded my arms. Andre looked away. He was most definitely feeling ashamed of his actions."Forgive me, my King. I let my emotions get the better of me," he apologised once again but

  • The Lycan King’s Wanted Mate   Chapter 13

    Aurelia's POVWas he… My mate was… he's the Lycan king!I stared at him with a gaping jaw. His expression only hardened into a frown as he stared down at me with a look that instilled anxiousness in me. His eyes were so deeply trained at me, one would think I was a puzzle he was trying to piece together in such little time."Is this anyway to greet your saviour and the King?" He inquired in a bold and deep voice that shook me out of my trance.He was right. Just simply staring at him was outright rude. Despite him being my mate, our rank put us on a whole different level from each other.I lowered my head instantly, "I'm sorry. Please forgive me. I-I was in shock so I didn't… I was trying to process the information… I hope you're not offended, your highness-""Offended?" his voice came from behind and I lifted my head to see he wasn't in front of me anymore. I hadn't even noticed when he passed. "When you're done giving honour to the breeze, you can shut the door and look at me."I sl

    Liam's POV"Please, let me leave," she said again with a broken voice this time. She sounded close to tears.Her head was still lowered and her shoulders trembled softly. Was this fear directed at me or was she cooking up something in her head? If there was one thing I knew about women, thanks to Emma, it was that they were constantly assuming and making up scenarios in their head.This one before me was no different. Only that I didn't feel a certain way with the way she cried. The mate pull was stronger especially with her scent in the air.Was she trying to tempt me? She would have to work a lot harder than that to actually make me feel something more."Are you in your head again?" I wondered aloud and saw as she stiffened. "For a second there you make it seem as though I want you to stay." I folded my arms.For saying such bold and cold words in a nonchalant way, my wolf wasn't feeling the same way. He whined and paced in my head. Her scent was killing him but at least one of us w

    Aurelia's POVMy legs turned to jelly and my knees hit the floor once he stepped out. I heard his footsteps fade out and only then did my tears come rushing at me.They fell freely while my face conveyed nothing but shock as I played back his words over and over.His words were not the accustomed words of rejection yet my wolf was going through an emotional turmoil that left me on the edge of being shattered inside.Just like that, he had taken away the sweet feeling of being in his presence and smelling my mate in the same room with me.I didn't know how to feel but I was certain of one thing, sleep had eluded me already and there was no forcing it.I wiped my tears and picked myself up like I had always done since life became harsh to me.I couldn't get rid of the feeling but I could at least get rid of the ripped dress I was wearing thanks to running in the woods.I sniffed as I locked the door, making sure no one would give me a surprise attack during the night. I untied my scarf

    Aurelia's POVI looked outside the window - something I've been doing constantly for a week now.The sun was out today and it seemed like a good time to let my wolf out and receive some of that Vitamin D but all I could do was stare with hunger in my eyes, envying the grass, the trees and pretty much anything that wasn't confined to the four walls of the room I was placed in.In exchange for shelter, good food and clothes, I had to give up my freedom. Oh and also in exchange for being kept away from Norton's reach. I guess that was all that mattered yet it felt like I had just wandered from one confined space to another.At least, the King didn't give me any chores- at this point, I think I would have preferred that. Anything to just step out to breathe in fresh air. The windows were opened so I guess that was a plus-"Oh Aurelia," I sighed and palmed my head. "You poor thing!" I couldn't help but feel sorry for myself.Pushing me aside, my wolf was still coping with the thought of h

    Aurelia's POV "The King never said I could let you out." Andre said, after a while seemingly shocked at my request. "I know but please," I pleaded rubbing my palms furiously. "I really need some fresh air...plus my wolf has been itching for a stretch." Andre looked at me intently and I could tell he was battling with his answer. Finally he said, "No one must see you. Make sure you return here after one hour." I smiled at him and I almost threw my arms around his neck from the excitement that my wolf was feeling but I cautioned her and reminded us of our current situation."Thank you. Thank you." I said happily."You're welcome. But I'll have a maid go with you just so she can remind you when it's time to come back." I nodded in response. "Please, please, please, don't let the King see you..and don't try not to let out your pheromones. It's very possible to smell you from a mile away." Andre warned, eying me with an unreadable expression. "He will have your head but he'll take min

    Aurelia's POV How long has it been? "Your highness," I smiled at the guards as I walked past, feeling a bit self conscious at their greetings. I thought I would've gotten used to it now… well I was trying but the thought that everyone in the Pack knew my name and my title, was a bit terrifying. The Castle had been rebuilt as well as the properties that had been destroyed in the war. "Your highness!" Mia called in a sing-song voice. She rushed over to me with Glenn and Olivia by her side. It was nice to see them again. After the mating ceremony two weeks ago, I had sent a few guards to search for them and luckily, they were alive and well. I wish I could say the same for Casey. She fell alongside the Wild Rose Pack. "I've set everything already," I paused. "Well, the maids did. Let's go?" they nodded eagerly and we headed straight to the tunnels where everything came to an end. With the breeze in my hair and the laughter of my friends, I felt relieved. I never thought I could be

    Aurelia's POV"Stay back!""Let go of her, Emma!""If you take one step closer, I'll kill her!" her voice was breaking like she was in tears but there was still a hint of fear and panic in her tone."You've done enough already! Do you really want to add this to your sins?" This voice belonged to Emma. She was probably grinding her teeth in anger. She sounded like she would explode any minute.I was slowly regaining consciousness and strength over my body but I kept my eyes closed. The chain was no longer around my neck but her arm instead and she held me so close to her chest."I did everything for you!" Emma screamed. That meant that Liam was close by. "Everything! I gave my whole life to you. Everything you did, I did it too just so you wouldn't feel left out and alone-""You assumed all of that," Liam was sounding surprisingly calm. I didn't expect that. I wish I could see the expression on his face; would it be blank like a sheet or worried like a true lover?"Ha," she gushed out

    Aurelia's POVThere was no more than needed to be said. Emma had chosen her own path a long time ago. What was I thinking trying to show her pity? After all she had done, the only thing she deserved was death."I'm sick of this," Mia said beside me and started to walk towards them. "I'm going to beat her to a pulp and make sure she's hanging from a tree." She increased her pace and charged towards Emma.Just then, a few rogues in wolf form jumped out, attacking Hunter and Mia dodged quickly and surrounded me, keeping their eyes at the rogues that continued to increase.We were surrounded and from the look of things, it would take a miracle for us to get out of here alive."They killed the boss," Emma said, pointing in our direction. "I couldn't do anything because of this," she tugged at her chains. "Where is the key? Release me at once-""The key is with the Prince," someone answered her."What? Where is he? I can't wait that long? What if they kill everyone and come after me too?" S

    Aurelia's POVIt wasn't even up to thirty minutes and one group had been annihilated. How did they-"Are you the real Aurelia or are you actually a fake?" they sneered and I recoiled to my corner while Mia shielded their evil eyes from me. I could feel their murderous intent and the hard pressure of their gaze."Sorry," the smile in Mia's voice gave off a psychotic vibe that made me shiver. She was having a good time. I had almost forgotten that Mia had a thing for trouble."They are increasing!" one of the guards yelled from behind. "We can't stay here any longer. We'll be trapped-""Idiot! We're already trapped here. We either go back to the Castle or we go out there but either way, we're gonna have to fight and some of us are going to die and it's not gonna be me because his highness told me to live!" She grabbed my arm and pulled me towards them."Keep your face down!" she yelled as she pulled me further into the tunnel. I could only stare at the floor as the guards fought their w

    Aurelia's POV"How serious is it?" I asked for the umpteenth time but every time I did, something strange happened."Should I braid your hair?" Mia asked with a cheerful smile- more like a forced one. "I learnt how to braid when you were away."Whenever I asked about the war, someone would change the subject. It was too obvious they were avoiding having to answer, especially when they answered with something completely unrelated."I know what you guys are doing," I leaned back on my pillows, staring at all three of them. "You don't have to do that. Just say you can't tell me or that it's confidential."They glanced at each other before Carlos spoke up, "Wouldn't it be strange to tell the future Queen that a war is happening in her own land and she can't be informed about it.""Really?" I rolled my eyes. "Yet, no one is telling me anything.""We don't want you to worry," Hunter said as he stood by the door with his arms folded and his eyes closed. He was probably paying attention to so

    Liam's POVMia closed the door behind her, leaving me and Aurelia in our bedroom. I didn’t think she would have still been awake. It was a shock to hear her giggling from the hallway with Hunter, Carlos and Mia.Now she was swinging her legs while she sat on our bed in a silky thin strap night dress that covered her knees."I have never wanted to make eunuchs out of my warriors so bad," she gasped at my words with a smile on her face. "Tell, my dear, am I wrong to think such things? You're practically naked.""I'm wearing something," she said in her defence."Yes. I see your point," I folded my arms and kept my gaze on her boobs. It took a while but when she understood that, she threw a hand over her breasts."It wasn't like that a few minutes ago" she looked away. "My body only ever malfunctions when you’re close by." she blushed."So you’re saying even when you're next to my grave, you're ready to-""Liam!" She covered her face. "My goodness!" she shook her head aggressively with a

    Liam's POV"You gave them twenty four hours?" Andre repeated."That's 16 hours left," I pointed out. I had spent a great deal of time with Aurelia, exploring her body like it would be the last and enjoying our mate bond. The minute I stepped into the room filled with my commanders, everyone could smell the mate mark on me.Their faces lifted up and they were all in high spirits. They couldn't wait to get the war over and done with so they could hold a feast and celebrate that their king had finally been mated."We should ready the warriors soon," Commander Rhys said, staring at the map. "I'll lead my team to the southern part. We should have all four entrances blocked and have them surrounded. I have heard some pretty dark rumours about Norton.""Me too," Commander Denice replied absentmindedly with a hand stroking his chin. "The number of rogues he controls are," he trailed off. "If they all defend Red Valley, we may have a hard time penetrating.""But it's not impossible," Commander

    Liam's POVWe arrived with my beast in no time. Even the guards by the border didn't see us when we passed. They only felt the gush of wind and I saw how they all panicked, calling for backup immediately and some chasing after us. They alerted the Castle through the mindlink and once we arrived, I heard the footsteps of a hundred men, rushing to protect the land.I set Aurelia on her feet who clutched my hand like she would lose balance. She smiled up at me and despite the fear on her face, she had been thrilled by the ride. Her heart was beating loudly and I placed my hand on her stomach, hoping that wasn't too rough on our child."We're fine," she said, putting her hand over mine."We have you surrounded!" Andre yelled and stepped forward. "Surrender now or-" his words disappeared when he came a little closer and he recognized who was before him. His eyes moved between Aurelia and I with tears in his eyes.I saw the burden lift up on his shoulders and he turned to the others, "Someo

    Liam's POV"What do you mean by that?""The Beta families suffered an unfortunate fate! It is a sensitive topic-- how dare you bring it up so casually!""Unfortunate fate?" I repeated the word and glared at the woman who had said that, ''how disgraceful!''She flinched at my gaze but refused to back down. Her eyes were bloodlust and I saw through her boiling anger-- thanks to the file of course. She had lost a dear friend too but the case was swept under the rug for very obvious reasons that were oblivious to them."We will not allow you to speak about our dead-""What investigation was carried out?" I asked them. "Were the perpetrators even brought to justice? You tell me you honour your dead yet you all failed to produce the killer.""Your visit here is about my son," Alpha Hector chipped in. "I have promised to scold him so refrain from-""I have evidence," I took out the papers from my robe. "Evidence that Norton is behind what you termed an 'unfortunate event'.""Such wild accusa
