The Lycan's Mate. CHAPTER TWENTY
Lucas’s large, beautiful office was connected to Dolph’s by a single glass door and Dolph stood up from his desk when he saw him walk in. With a smile, he walked through the glass door connecting their offices and Riley gasped at the sight of him. “Sorry, forest girl, didn’t mean to startle you.” He said to her and she nodded. “Lucas, you finally showed up, thought you would take another hour or so.”“Will you keep calling her that when you know her name?” Lucas asked as he sat down on his comfortable seat behind his desk.“Of course, it’s about my preference and I’m sure she likes it too,” He turned to look at Riley with a smile. “Right?”She nodded, could she do otherwise? She had a feeling that even if she told the truth and said the name made her uncomfortable, he wouldn’t give a fuck.“Riley, drop the briefcase on the desk and take a seat on one of those chairs there,” Lucas instructed.She walked over and carefully placed the briefcase on his desk, she did it gently but still,

Dolph was surely not one of the nicest people Riley had ever and would ever meet, even on their way to the elevator, he kept on taunting her. “It’s a damn elevator, everyone knows how to use an elevator. And you’re a fucking human.” He said. She remained silent, wondering how she would tell him that she never had the luxury he had her entire life. He was smiling as he mocked her so it gave her the insight that he didn’t mean all what he was saying, she didn’t take any of what he said to heart. They got into the elevator and he left her after setting her down for the ground floor. “It’s advisable if you do not speak to anyone else on the way, just for your safety.” He said and she smiled and nodded. “Thank you, beta Dolph.” She said, Why was she smiling even after I had mocked her? He wondered and squinted at her as the doors closed. “Well, she’s strange as hell.” He concluded and walked back into the office. The rest of Riley’s day ran pretty smoothly, Lucas didn’t bother her mu

Reluctantly, Lucas and Dolph left the two women alone and went to his study, Brenda’s cold, unfeeling eyes never left Riley. Riley felt beads of perspiration forming on her forehead and sweat running in a beeline down her thin back, something was menacing about Lucas’s fiancé’s presence. “Come closer,” Brenda said sharply and Riley moved towards her obediently. Brenda sat down on a couch and left Riley standing, “Lucas tells me he found you in a forest and now you’re his maid, I guess life has given you a huge promotion. From a mere lowlife to the Lycan King’s maid.” She said slowly. Riley was determined to ignore whatever hurtful things she had to say, her day had been perfect up to this point and she wasn’t going to let a few words ruin it. But Brenda had more than just a few soft words, her words were sharp and venomous and could pierce easily through any feeble-hearted person. “I guess so,” Riley replied. “I never said you could speak,” Brenda snapped and Riley looked at he

When Dolph walked out of the office, he stormed into Brenda and she had a wicked frown on her face. Dolph stared at her for a while, then forced a smile, “How’d your meeting go?” “Perfect.” She replied curtly then jerked a thumb towards the door of the study. “He’s in there, right?”He nodded and she walked past him. Dolph wondered how in the blue hell did Lucas have so much love towards a lady as cruel as Brenda. He shrugged, “Love is blind, blind is stupid.” He said and walked out of the house.“Now where could she have gone?” He asked, referring to no one in particular as he walked out of the front door. He met the two hefty guards there and they bowed to him, “Have you seen the girl? The new maid here.”They grunted, “She was here for a while, then she went around the back. Lost sight of her.” One replied.“Tell the chauffeur to have the limo around the front in five minutes,” Dolph said and walked away.Went around the back? Dolph thought as he rushed towards the back of the bea

“Can I smoke with you?” Brenda asked as she sat down on a chair. Through a heavy cloud of smoke, Lucas stared at her impassively and pushed his cigarette pack and lighter to her. “Help yourself.” He said flatly. She frowned, “You usually light it for me, Lucas.” She said and pouted like a little spoiled brat. That was what Brenda had been raised as, a little spoiled brat who was used to getting everything she wanted and she had grown up with that mentality. She believed that as long as she asked for it and as long as what she asked for existed, she could always get it. “Light it yourself this time, Brenda.” He said, his tone flustering her. “You need to learn to be independent sometimes.” She scoffed, “Independent? Why suddenly decide to be independent when I have countless maids under me I could always order to do whatever I want? Stop talking like a commoner, Lucas, or have you suddenly become an ordinary werewolf overnight?” She asked, her eyes squinting at him and watchin

Riley’s stay at the Shadow pack was turning out to be a very interesting one. It would have been perfect if she didn’t feel the way she felt towards Lucas. Most nights, before she slept all she thought about was the tingling wave that had swept over her body the first time they met. She still thought about Shawn and wondered what had become of him. It was unlikely that he was dead, Shawn was a survivor and he was probably having a good time now despite the crumbling of his pack. That particular night, she could never forget it, she had been too close to death and there was no other feeling that could be compared to the fear she felt. Had Lucas been two seconds late, she would have been dead by now. She owed Lucas her life and she tried her best to please him and all seemed to be going fine, except when they got close. Then there was that spark, a spark that made her dream and see something like a future with Lucas but she brushed it off each time.“I'm not in his class, we can never

Riley saw very little of Brenda for the next day and she was grateful to the moon goddess for keeping her away. But that luck ran out on the day before the feast, Riley was excited about the feast. Although she wouldn’t be going with Lucas, she would still be close to him one way or the other. This particular day, Brenda walked into the pack house that day with a frown on her face, she was in a very foul mood and was ready to offload the anger she felt on anyone's insight, but that was of course except Lucas. The guards at the front door were a little too sluggish and delayed in moving aside for her to pass. That infuriated her completely and she lashed at one of the stone-faced guards, “You brainless chunk of flesh! You’d better learn to move aside quickly the next time I am about to enter, don’t get on my bad side so quickly, you fools!” She snarled querulously. The guards exchanged angry and baffled glances when she walked into the house and the one she had slapped rubbed his

It was D-Day! On the day of the feast Riley was nervous. Riley woke up with a very bright smile on her face despite her nervousness, the rays of the sun danced on her eyelids as she parted them open. On her bed, she stretched like a lazy cat and slowly crawled off the bed. “Oh my gosh, imagine being surrounded by illustrious werewolves from all the packs!” She exclaimed to herself. “That’s crazy, my life certainly is a whirlwind of adventure.”She checked the time, it was a little after eight. She had twenty minutes to pick up Lucas’s breakfast from the kitchen and take it to his study. That made her remember the event of the previous day, Brenda had a temper and Riley didn’t appreciate her taking it out on her. The slap was uncalled for, Brenda didn't have to display the brutality her anger carried in such a manner. She was just a spoiled bitch, Riley concluded, that had to be it. She was the kind of girl that got whatever she wanted and if someone else had it, she didn’t think tw

Riley struggled to contain her temper, she wanted to hurl at Lucas so badly, but she held back the urge.The startled lady jumped off the desk and straightened her skirt with a look of embarrassment and shock on her face. At that moment, the secretary ran in, panting heavily and her eyes widened as she saw the scene in front of her. “King Lucas, I’m so sorry, I couldn’t restrain the queen from barging in.” She said apologetically, afraid that she might lose her job. Lucas, who had recovered from the brief moment of shock, waved her away. “It’s okay, you can go.”The secretary couldn’t have gotten out of there quicker, it was as hot as a hell hole due to the heat between Riley and Lucas.Riley glared at the lady and suddenly became angry that she was still there. “Get the fuck out, you fucking whore!” She bellowed spitefully and the lady, who was shivering from head to toe, rushed out. Riley slammed the door after her and faced Lucas, who was now on his feet with a cigarette and lig

Riley cried bitterly that night, she felt so betrayed by Lucas that she thought all the love for him she had left was gone, but it wasn’t. She still loved him dearly, but she hated the guts he had to put her through this sort of torture. Ignoring her and making her feel less of a woman wasn't enough for him, he had to sleep around too and that hurt her. Worse was the fact that she was sure he didn't care about her feelings. He knew he was doing this to her intentionally, but it had gone way too far. “What an asshole you are, Lucas, a fucking asshole!” she cried and buried her face in a pillow.She cried herself to keep and all this while,Lucas didn't step foot into the room. “Now you’ve messed up big time, how do you explain this?” Dolph asked, running his fingers through his hair in frustration, this was complete madness! Lucas's face was unconcerned and he just shrugged, “Explain? To who? I owe nobody an explanation for anything, Dolph.” He said flatly. “Yeah, no one except yo

Dolph cleared Lucas's desk before leaving the pack office that evening.He was exhausted and there were some documents he had to drop off at the pack house so Lucas could sign them the next morning before coming to the office.He drove to the pack house, his eyes heavy and tired, he strolled in to find the queen seated in the living room."Hey there, Riley." He said languidly as he walked past her.Riley who had a frown on her face turned to watch him walk away, it seemed like Dolph was dragging himself rather than walking."Hey, Dolph." She said, but he was already out of sight.Riley was getting tired of this pretty quickly, she just wished Lucas would come to his senses soon. His negligence of her and his ill attitude just made her stay here unbearable.She wasn't just some doll or effigy he kept in his house to portray the crown of the queen. She wasn't an object of the throne, she was a human too, who had feelings and emotions and needed care and love. Lucas ruthlessly denied her

Lucas left his office later that day with an angry look on his face. He walked out of the pack office building and his chauffeur brought the car around the building. “Where to, King Lucas?” He asked.Lucas didn't want anyone to know where he was this particular night, so he decided to drive himself there. “Don't worry, I’ll take it from here.” He said to the driver who got out and handed the key to him.Lucas drove for a while, silently and just taking in the beautiful atmosphere of the night, and then he decided that it was time to leave. The more he thought about Riley, the more erect he became and his craving for satisfaction became unbearable. He drove out of the pack and headed into the city, it had been a while since he headed out alone. Usually, he went with Brenda but of course, she was unavailable and very much out of his reach.He went to a huge pub where he had been a regular before he was handed the prestigious crown of his pack, he was still remembered there and even ack

Lucas developed a habit of keeping late nights and soon, it grew into something more.From getting drunk occasionally, to going to clubs and picking up different beautiful ladies. Everything usually ended in the pub or club, but that also started changing too. That night, after Dolph’s conversation with Riley, he became more worried about the relationship between the king and queen of the pack. It was like a bond no longer existed between the both of them but everyone else in the pack was too blind to see it or detect anything wrong. He couldn’t go about his responsibilities properly for the rest of the day and that also included his favorite sport, sex. She stopped riding him for a while and just sat on him, but still it took a short while for him to realize that she had stopped.“What’s the matter?” He asked, his eyes still looking dazed from his thoughts.There was a look of annoyance on her face as she got off him and left the bed, completely naked. She picked up his cigarette ca

Staying with Lucas in the same room wasn’t going to change much or mend the acrid relationship between them but Riley was still going to give it a try.She was determined to win Lucas over again, but it proved to be a rather herculean task as time went on. She realized that at first, their love had blossomed effortlessly, Lucas had fallen in love with her at first sight, and then there was also the bond between them. Riley had forgotten how difficult it was to try and make a man fall in love with her ever since she met Lucas, but now, she was going to discover it again.She had a nightmare of Lucas treating her the same way Shawn had and the thoughts of it just became more and more frightening as she thought about it. One thing she was sure of was that Lucas would never imprison her or hit her, he also would never rape her. Whatever phase he was going through now was just the acceptance at stage all over again and once he finally came to terms with his emotions, all would be fine. But

What Riley thought was a good situation turned out to be hell and she found herself wishing she could leave the pack. Over the next four months or so, her stay with Lucas as his Luna could be described as traumatic and it got into her head so much that she often fell into depression.The next day, after her coronation, Lucas assigned her to another room and she left the maid’s quarters, but she wasn’t staying with him in the same bedroom either. He moved her and all her belongings to another bedroom and that made her confused. “Why do we have to stay separately from each other now that I’m your Luna, Lucas?” She asked.He stared at her impassively, “Because that is how I want it to be, You just wear the crown and bear the title of the luna of my pack, there’s nothing special between us.” He replied indifferently. “And what about the child? What about your child, Lucas?” She asked, suddenly developing a feeling of resentment for him. “My child will be well taken care of. Anytime y

There was a feast later on and then a dance.Lucas left her alone for some time and was lost in the crowd. She too was lost in a small circle of ladies who had gathered around her and were trying to know more about her. She was supposed to join a clique specifically for the Lunas of the Lycan queens and one even confessed something rather embarrassing to her. “I’ll be honest right now, Riley,” One of the other queens around her said. “We already had a special towel made for the incoming queen of the Shadow pack and to be honest, we already had Brenda’s name inscribed on it.” The others laughed softly and one added, “That’s no big issue, we’ll make another one right before our next meeting.”This was when Dolph stepped in and interrupted them, “Excuse me, ladies, if you don’t mind I would like to have the newly crowned queen.” He said politely and they giggled.Riley was relieved that Dolph had whisked her away from them when he did, she became bored of their company very quickly and

Out of everyone in the room, Lucas was the only one who was neither shocked nor surprised. He saw the look on everyone’s face, his eyes caught the expression on Brenda’s but he didn’t look at her or her father or the few people he had brought along from their pack. Instead, he placed his hands on Riley’s arms and helped her to her feet. Her heart was beating so fast and heavily, there were goosebumps all over her skin. She was so shy standing in front of all these people who knew nothing about her.Another thing was, she was happy, her heart busted with jubilation the moment Lucas had said that Brenda couldn’t be his Luna and that had made her smile until the moment she heard her name. Lucas gestured to her and together, they both turned and faced everyone in the hall. There was no applause yet, everyone was still recovering from the shock of what had just happened. It was Dolph who started it. He clapped and slowly, everyone else in the room joined in. Everyone except an angry Brend
