43. Better watch your back, Max

Max's house wasn't as big as ours. But it had a warm vibe that I loved. It had a circular driveway in the front and the mansion was beige in colour with a brown roof. It was surrounded by a lot of trees and gave a secure, isolated-from-the-rest-of-the-world feeling. Which I suppose was good for a supernatural living in a human city.

"Nice house," Nikolai said as we got out of our cars in the garage. From what we had seen, it really was.

"Thanks," Max smiled, looking truly proud.

Nat gave me a mischievous grin before he ran and jumped on Max's back, her arms around his neck and legs around his waist.

"The fuck?" Max muttered but grabbed Nat so she wouldn't fall off. Nat giggled in his ears.

"Yes, monkey, let's go get you a banana," Max chuckled and carried her inside.

I laughed at their antics. I was happy for Nat. She looked happier than ever and Max was good for her.

"Save the foreplay from the bedroom, Max," Nik rolled his eyes at them.

"Oh, if you saw the foreplay, you'd kno

    Avalyn "Thank you for having us over." I smiled at Max and Nat. We had a quick breakfast after we woke up and now, Nik and I were on our way to meet Mary. "It was our pleasure." Max smiled back. "I actually wanted to give you something," he told Nik and then handed him an envelope. "What's this?" Nik asked, taking it from his hand. "It's a gift from Mom. She told me to give it to you when you meet your mate," Max replied, his tone gentle. I sucked in a breath. I had no idea Viktoria had planned so far ahead. She was very thoughtful. "Why did she give it to you? Why not me directly?" Nik asked, his voice thick. "When I asked her to give it to you herself, she just made me promise that I'd give it to you. And that I'll always protect you." Despite whatever happened between the two brothers, there was nothing but love in Max's eyes for Nik. I bit my lip. I felt bad that they hadn't spoken to each other for so long. "Thanks, brother." Nik hugged him. Max hugged me afterward, surpr

  • The Lycan King   45. A tickling match

    Avalyn On our way home, we stopped by the hospital to check in on Mikhail. His condition had worsened. He was in the ICU, put in an induced coma. The left side of his neck, shoulder, and chest was covered in bandages. An oxygen mask covered his nose and mouth, and several tubes trailed in and out of his body. It wasn't easy to see him like that. He must have been in so much pain. The doctors said that he was in too much pain and the spreading venom was just making it more painful. He only had a few more weeks to live. A month, at the most. The healers were trying something, but they weren't sure if it would be successful. They said that praying to the Moon Goddess was our last hope. But Goddess Luna wasn't that kind. Watching Mikhail like that was hurting Nik too much. He blamed himself. I knew he did. So I suggested that we let Mikhail rest in peace and go home for the day. Nik agreed. I didn’t think he could bear to watch his brother like that any more than I could. I tried to

    Avalyn "I wish I could do something to help him," I whispered. We were sitting in the infirmary by Mikhail's side. A nurse had been redoing his bandages when we walked in. Watching the full extent of his injuries brought tears to my eyes. Half of his neck and shoulder had turned black. It was decaying. He smelled of death. The bandages and the smell of the healing creams didn't make it seem as bad yesterday, but his condition was much worse than we had thought. Nikolai had set up a task force to gather information on this, but it was proving to be a lot more difficult. No one wanted to associate with or help Rogues. We were only limited to witches and scriptures in human towns and cities. "Let's see what we find in Mozog," Nikolai murmured and Vladimir placed his hand on Nik's shoulder in silent support. Sof looked distraught. We can't let him die. Mikhail was our brother. I vowed to find something to help him. He was on that mission with Nat because of me. He was hurt because of

    The slaves had brought out two full hanging shelves. One held clothes for me and the other for Nik. All of them were red in colour. "Why red?" I asked. "Red is a sacred colour for vampires," Nik said as he went through his clothes. I hummed as I went through the beautiful dresses. I chose the most simple but elegant dress with maximum coverage in comparison to the rest of the dresses. It had a tight corset bodice that ended at the bottom of my ribs and the lower part was made of silk that reached the floor. The thing about the top was that it was see-through, but the intricate designs on it would cover my nipples well enough. At least my lower body would be covered entirely. I had noticed while entering the palace that vampires liked nudity. And they didn’t shy away from flaunting their bodies. The less cloth covering your body, the better. "Don't look at my dress." I hid it behind myself. "I want to surprise you." I smiled. "Fine. There must be a dressing room in here. You can

    Nikolai "Excuse us," I told the slaves and all of them got up and left the bedroom. "Ava, come, have a seat," I patted the space in front of me on the bed. Ava took a seat and looked at me questioningly. "I want to first remind you that I'm here for you. And as long as I am here, nothing is going to happen to you," I started. "What is it, Nik? You're scaring me," she said, looking worried. "There is nothing to be worried about," I told her confidently. I needed to put on a strong front and make her believe it. Otherwise, she would just worry, and the probability of slipping up would increase. "There are just a few precautions we need to take to ensure that nothing happens. I want you to listen closely and remember all of them. Understood?" "Yes, Master," she nodded. "Vasilik was an asshole and so were all the people who were loyal to him. Don't trust anybody apart from our family. You do not need to be afraid of them, but you need to be cautious around them. We are werewolves r

    Avalyn My eyes fluttered open when a soft sound hit my ears. I groaned. I hated when my sleep was disturbed. Nik slapped his hand over my mouth. My eyes snapped open in shock. He placed his finger on his lips, gesturing me to remain quiet. 'I think we have some unwelcome visitors in the quarters,' he mind linked me, Vladimir, and Sofiya together. 'I will go first. Vladimir, come in thirty seconds. Girls, don’t go out of the room,' he said. 'Yes, Alpha,' Vladimir replied. 'Um, no. We can help!' Sofiya said. 'Yes!' I pleaded Nik with my eyes. 'Fine. But only if we are not done in two minutes.' He looked at me. I nodded, scared of what was to come. He took off the blanket quietly and took the sword that was given to him during the coronation. 'Use your dagger if you decide to come out. It will kill any vampire with a single strike anywhere on his body.' He looked at me intently before opening the door and slipping out quietly. I got out of bed and took the dagger in my hand. I lo

    Nikolai "Oath of fealty?" Rhazien paced around the courtroom. The court was over for the day and only Vladimir, Sofiya, Rhazien, Darius, Leikos, Ezra, Ava, and I remained. "I can't believe this. The people will not like it," he said and shook his head. "First is having their King killed by a werewolf. Second is a werewolf being their King. And now you give them hope but take it away by demanding the oath of fealty.” I glared at him. "You have no say in the matter. Tread carefully, Rhazien." "You were never going to make him the King, were you?" "No," I said honestly. "You gave your word," Rhazien looked at Ava. I didn't like him dragging her into this. Before I could say anything, she spoke. "What do I know? I have been a Luna for all of two weeks. Nikolai knows best about all of these things." She shrugged, still going on with our little charade. "He made a decision and I stand by him." Rhazien narrowed his eyes at us, clearly aware that something was up. "The people are sca

    Nikolai "Trouble in paradise?" Dimitri asked as he strolled into the living room in his boxers. "We're fine!" I snapped. "Liar, liar, pants on fire," he tsked. "I heard your conversation. Don’t worry, Dimitri is back on duty. Kind of." I groaned. "But first, it's so good to see you two again!" he said in a cheery tone and then hugged Ava. She patted his back awkwardly for some reason and then he came to hug me, but I pushed him back. Now I knew why. "Take a damn shower. You stink of sex," I said, gagging. It dawned on me where he had disappeared off to for the last few days. He was having a fuck-fest. "Which is the best scent ever," he said and winked. "Man. I missed this place. Almost forgot how good it was." "No. You missed the sex. And forgot how good the pampering here was," I corrected him. "This man knows my heart." He pointed at me and grinned smugly at Ava. "You know he secretly loves me, right? Like he loves you, yes, but deep down, he is in love with me. Which, well,

    Avalyn 3 months later. "You look ravishingly beautiful, Moya Lyubov." Nik leaned against a column and looked at me through the mirror in front of us. I had worn an ivory-coloured gown with intricate golden patterns on the top bodice that hugged my figure. The bottom part of the dress puffed out a little, ending in a long trail to give it more of a princess-y look. The dress was beautiful and so was the perfectly done hair and makeup. Tessa helped me put on a red mantle with delicate white-and-gold handwork that went amazingly with my dress. Grinning at him through the mirror, I turned around and walked to him. "You look extremely handsome as well." Nikolai was wearing a charcoal grey tuxedo with a more masculine version of my mantle. It went well with his tuxedo. Tessa and another slave stepped forward with a cushion each in hand. On them sat the crowns that we had received in Mozog. This was the true symbol that this pack was not just for wolves but for vampires as well. Nikolai

    Avalyn A deep pit formed in my belly the moment we stepped in. I was watching my step when I entered so I saw a line of green grass pass from under my feet. It started extending and covering the large expanse of void in front of us. A gasp left my mouth when I saw acres and acres of land in front of us, covered in neatly trimmed, lively green grass. And on that grass were well-groomed and beautiful gardens, covering the entire land. The cold weather changed and the sun shined more brightly. It was almost as if... as if it was spring. How was this possible? The temperature didn't feel like it was negative-something Celsius, but almost as if it was twenty degrees. The temperature I thought was perfect. My heart thudded. Was this real? Or was I imagining it? Nik and I continued walking forward. Suddenly, a line slipped from beneath our feet and a white cobble-stoned path followed the line and created a straight path for us, from the middle of the gardens, up to the top of the mount

    Nikolai "Are you sure you want to keep going?" Ava asked wearily. After the... incident earlier, we decided it would be best for us to stay together and walk carefully instead of running or jogging. "Very," I replied, gripping her soft hand tighter. "Whatever is up there, it doesn't want us here." Her sides brushed mine. I was enjoying keeping her on this short leash. "And that's too bad for them because that is my land," I replied. "And if whatever is up there doesn't want us there, that means there is something important there that needs protection." I looked straight ahead and kept a steady pace, determined to make it to the top. "And I intend to find out what that is." "But what if we are better off keeping things the way they are? I'm not sure if I like this, Nikolai. This place is giving me weird vibes." She stepped closer to me. "My instincts tell me that I need to go up. They have been telling me that for a while," I told her truthfully. "If you are not comfortable, I ca

    Avalyn When I woke up the next morning, Nik was already gone. I looked at the clock and realized it was nine a.m. Of course, he was gone. I got out of bed and stretched my limbs, a huge smile gracing my features. Last night had been... amazing. It was hands down one of our most memorable nights. I went to the washroom and took a quick, warm shower, soothing my sore muscles. Life was good. When I stepped out, I saw Tessa in the room with a pile of clothes in her hand. "For you, Mistress." "Thank you, Tessa." I grinned. I was in a very good mood that morning. "You're very welcome, Mistress. I'll go make your breakfast. Do you need anything?" She looked very worried. "Why are you so worried?" I took off my bathrobe and started putting the clothes she had got me. "I was very scared for you last night, Mistress." Deep concern was etched on her features. "I don't ever want you to have to go through pain. Especially under the hands of the man you love so much!" She whispered the last

    Nikolai Ava's eyes closed and I tightened my hold on her waist and her legs. "He is yours to kill." I looked at Javier, jutting my chin towards Maggot before I left the cottage with my brave mate in my arms. I was in awe of her strength. I knew she would come at least once before the eight days were up. But she still managed to shock me with the strength that she carried inside her. All of us were shocked. I saw something in her eyes that day that made me realize something. I felt like I had been enlightened. She was done with her past now. She was done being the submissive, meek Avalyn she had been moulded into. Ava had broken out of that enclosure and was ready to metamorphose into the strong, confident and brilliant woman who would lead this world by my side. I just hoped she recognized that too and would listen to me with an open mind this time around. Halfway on our way to the cottage we were staying Ava's eyes fluttered open. Her hair turned back to brown and her eyes were b

  • The Lycan King   88. Avenging Angel

    Avalyn My first walk with Papa seemed ages ago. All of us had gotten very busy after that. We hardly saw each other. Especially Nik and I. But we developed a schedule. He would wake me up in the morning with either breakfast in bed and then we would go for a short run around the pack, or we would engage in early morning sex before a quick breakfast and then we would part ways. The first order we issued as the Alpha and Luna of the Montana Pack was to break down the wall on which the heads of wolves hung. Those heads were hung on Emilio's orders as a reminder to the pack about what would happen to them if they upset him in any way. The heads were finally taken down and were lit on pyres by their friends and family. I hoped that those wolves finally attained peace on the other side of the Moon. Max had been given the task of going through the pack’s bank accounts for illegal businesses and suspicious activities. Max's friend Daniel was great with numbers and knew trustworthy people w

    Avalyn I saw our entire family waiting for us, and our entire pack standing behind them, looking at us with a reverent gaze. Nik was quick to stand in front of me and hide me from their gaze. Our clothes had burned off in the fire so I was naked. And Nik was being overprotective. I loved it. I loved him. And I wanted him. Desperately. I bit down on my lip. His eyes darkened. "Don't." He pulled my lip out and then groaned. "You're naked, Love." He closed his eyes, struggling hard to control himself in front of everyone. "I'm going to fuck you so hard after all this." I nodded, gulping. "I'll hold you to your promise." I had missed him. And then two slaves came in, carrying a dress for me and a pair of shorts for Nik. We both quickly got dressed before Nik finally relaxed and stood beside me. "The series of unfortunate events that have been happening since last night have happened because of one spiteful person who hated vampires — Mary. She was the one who lit the packhouse on fi

    Avalyn My eyes lost sight of Papa and Nik. Why did he run away? Did he not like me? Did he think of me as a bad person? It didn't make sense. It hurt. Watching him run away from me hurt. Why did he do it? I couldn't think of a single reason why he would be upset with me. Maybe that day... when we were attacked... if I hadn't been there, and he didn't have to defend himself and me, he wouldn't have been kept as a captive in the dungeon. If it wasn't for me, he could have lived as an Alpha with Mama. And then it clicked, he resented me because I killed Mama. My heart dropped. Yes, that was it. It had to be it. My vision was obstructed by a chest. I looked up and saw Dimitri. "Avalyn, your nose is bleeding." Deep concern was etched on his face. My hand immediately came up to touch my nostril and sure enough, it was bloody. I wiped it all away. "It's probably nothing," I muttered. I didn't care about myself. I wanted to talk to Papa and beg for his forgiveness. "Or maybe it is somet
