The Lycan's Mate. CHAPTER SEVENTY
When Riley met Dolph later that day, he was in a disheveled state, just like his thoughts.He sat on a garden bench and he was just staring ahead at nothing in particular, she had never seen him this way. She shook his shoulders slightly, but he didn’t respond until she yelled his name into his ears.He jolted and stared at her with anxious eyes. “Riley? What the hell are you doing here?” He asked, his eyes dazed and still distant from his thoughts.“You look like a mess, Dolph. I wanted to talk to you but if it’s not the right time, I can-” He shook his head, and that made her stop talking.“It’s okay, we can talk now.” He said, blinking severally as if that would help clear his thoughts.She stared at him, assaying the state he was in. “Are you sure?” She asked and he nodded. “Of course, never doubt the Beta’s words, forest girl.” He said firmly and she could see that he was getting a hold of himself gradually.“What happened to you?” She asked. “Or you do not want to tell me about

Lucas led her to his car and beckoned on his chauffeur.“Get into the car, and just drive around the pack, Do not stop until I tell you to head back to the pack.” He said to the driver who nodded and got into the front seat.Riley was somewhat tense, her heart was beating fast and she thought he was going to let her have a piece of his mind. It was the limousine they took for a ride and the first thing Lucas did when they got into the car and the engine started, he went over to a small bar at the corner. He filed only one glass for himself, ignoring Riley completely.“It seems like you have a lot to say to me, I’m only giving you listening ears because tomorrow, a new Luna will be crowned.” He said curtly.“Why, Lucas?” She asked, staring at him directly, her eyes large with a touch of sorrow.He took a sip of the champagne he held, then stared at her coldly. “Why what? Did you try to reach out to me just so you could ask me meaningless questions, Riley?” He asked curtly. “No, I came

Riley wondered who it was at the door, could it be Dolph? Likely.Or could it be Lucas? That was unlikely but it was also possible, no one had checked up on her all day so why would they give a fuck now that the event was drawing to a start? She crawled off the bed and strolled to the door with bored eyes. When she yanked the door open she met the startled face of her maid.When the maid saw the grim look on her face, her eyes widened with surprise, why was she so mad when everyone else was joyful?“What is it?” Riley asked harshly and moved to the side so the timid maid could walk in.She held a beautiful dress on a hanger delicately and Riley arched an eyebrow at her.“What the hell is that?” She asked.The maid was so shy, that was because she had never seen Riley this way since she started working for her. “It’s an evening dress, the king said I should bring it to you to wear for the night.” She replied, staring down at the carpets and stretching the beautiful dress at her.Riley’

Everyone was present for this huge event, even Brenda’s father whom Lucas seldom saw, and a few members of his pack.Lucas looked around the hall, it was already packed with all sorts of dignitaries from far and wide, and for a split second, he reconsidered the decision he had taken already. But then, the hesitation was gone as quickly as it came, he gritted his mind and kept a straight face, even when Brenda’s father started to approach him with a broad, warm smile on his face. Brenda’s father was a giant of a man with immaculate white hair and a stainless, white, and full beard, he was huge and still had the body of an athlete at his age. He wore a brilliant white suit that made him look god-like and attracted as much attention as he usually did. Normally, Lucas felt belittled by his overpowering presence, but not anymore. "King Lucas, it’s been a while since we met son, How’s it all been being king and all that?” Her father asked as they shook hands. His hand was cold and firm a

Brenda didn't leave his arm, she clung to him like his shadow and it started to irritate Lucas and get on his nerves."Brenda, can you give me a little space?" He asked calmly and slipped his arm out of her grip.An elder from his pack flagged the event off and with each passing second, the heartbeat of Lucas increased."Please be seated, everyone." The elder said. "This is a great night that will mark a new change in this pack, finally, King Lucas shall crown a Luna." A round of applause went around the hall and died quickly. "As a tradition, both Lycans and werewolf Pack share, a king or an Alpha cannot function to the fullest of his abilities without a Luna by his side."Grunts and nods of approval went around the room, Lucas didn't move, smile, or show any emotions. He just sat there like a statue with a straight face."Before we move on, on behalf of the elder's panel and the whole pack, I would like to thank the dignitaries who made it to this important event, despite the short

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

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

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

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
