The Lycan's Mate. CHAPTER THIRTY-SEVEN
That night and so many other long nights to come, Lucas found it difficult to sleep without thinking about Riley. Everything about him suddenly revolved around her. He played the scene in the car over and over in his mind and he loved every second of it. He had given her all his energy and she had reciprocated it up till the point of the peak of his satisfaction.He had sex with Brenda a lot of times in the past, but not once did he feel this way. Not once did he feel so fulfilled and satisfied. He already made up his mind, one way or the other, he had to have Riley. He suddenly didn’t care what the others would think, how they would react, or the injustice they would consider the act towards Brenda. His heart was with Riley now, it didn’t matter if she wasn’t one of them.There was something about Dolph, he was so cheeky and sneaky. He saw the lipstick stain on Lucas's lips and waited to confirm if it was the same lipstick color Riley was putting on and it was. There was nothing he c

“Earnshaw, I won’t even ask, I won’t even waste time telling you what I want, just get straight to the point and start explaining everything,” Brenda said the moment she stormed into the living room and saw Lucas.“You came later than I expected,” Lucas remarked calmly from the portable bar at the corner of the room.“My dad didn’t allow me to leave until the chauffeur was ready, he said I wasn’t allowed to drive when I was so enraged.” She replied to his surprise and perched on a couch, facing him with demanding eyes.A maid walked in at that moment and her face went white when she saw Brenda. She was about to retrace her steps but decided to announce her purpose there. She bowed to both of them and said to Lucas, “The breakfast table is set, King Lucas.” Lucas nodded and was about to say something when Brenda’s high-pitched voice came like a vicious whiplash, cutting through the air. “Get out this instant!” She yelled at the maid who trembled instantly and rushed out of the room,

“Alright, this is the time where you tell me the conjecture you’ve come to,” Lucas said calmly.“She hugged you!” Brenda yelled, her face glowering with rage. “The bitch hugged you! That’s the only way her scent could rub off so strongly. Now don’t fucking lie to me, Lucas, did she hug you or not?” “No, she didn’t.” He replied and Brenda was about to throw a tantrum and accuse him of lying when he added. “I did, I was the one who hugged her.”She stopped instantly, it was as if his words froze her in time. “Lucas, I’m not sure I heard you well, what did you just say?” She asked.“I hugged her.” He replied flatly, still eating as he did.“Why?” She asked, her shock getting the better of her anger. “Why would you do that?”“Because she was shivering in fright after the whole thing, she wasn’t herself and that was the only thing I thought of doing to calm her down.” He replied, his calmness only made her more agitated.“And why is it that your hug was enough to calm her down…why would y
The Lycan's Mate. CHAPTER FORTY
For a week, Lucas didn’t hear from Brenda and she didn’t come to visit either. In the space of that week, his bond with Riley only grew stronger and even Dolph was wondering if Riley had replaced Brenda. Riley was excited, she enjoyed the attention she was receiving from Lucas and the reception from Dolph. She started seeing little of him as he got more busy and engrossed at the Pack office and more than once it had been just her and Lucas in the house.Everything was going smoothly for her, the fact that she saw little or nothing or Brenda made it even better. Once, Lucas had come across her in the hallway leading to his study and he caught her hands swiftly and pinned her to the wall. Riley was startled and she looked around with desperate, alert, and searching eyes.“What are you doing, King Lucas?” She whispered with an urgency in her voice. “Someone might just walk past and see us in this position.”“So? It’s my fucking pack after all.” He replied coolly, not even bothering to lo

Riley and Lucas’s love story went on for a few more days. Riley was happy, this was the best time of her life but it was going to take a drastic turn soon.One day, they had sex in Lucas’s bedroom at night and Riley collapsed on top of him, breathing heavily and with satisfaction. He let her naked body remain on his for a while, he too was exhausted and drained completely.After a while of silence that was only interrupted by their heavy breathing, she asked him a question.“What now, King Lucas?”“You know we’ve gotten so close, you can stop calling me that.” He said before replying to her strange question. “Call me Lucas.”“It’ll certainly taste funny in my mouth.” She remarked. “Lucas.”“Sounds good,” He said with a smile, then his face went serious. “Now, what did you mean by what now, Riley?”She took a deep breath, “It looks like you’ve broken up with Brenda, she hasn’t visited for some time now, it’s awkward.” “We had a huge argument the last time she was here, it didn’t end w

Lucas stared at Dolph who stared back with hesitant eyes.“Go bring her,” Lucas said.Dolph grimaced, “Oh common, Lucas, don’t send me to undertake this gruesome task.”“Go bring her, you wimp.” Lucas snarled and Dolph got to his feet.“Sure, Lucas, way to go for always leaving me with the herculean tasks.” He said and walked out of the study.He walked into the living room just in time to see her coming in through the front door. Brenda stopped when she saw Dolph, she looked dazzling in the short, black gown she wore. To his surprise, she smiled at him. “Hey, Dolph.” She said jovially.His eyes darted around in confusion, “Hey…Brenda.” What was going on? He wondered.She looked around, “Where’s Lucas?” She asked.“Come with me, we were busy studying before you showed up.” He said.“I didn’t mean to disrupt anything,” She said in a polite manner that didn’t sit well with him as she followed him.Dolph opened the door and let her in, he looked up and groaned before walking in and clos

Riley avoided Lucas for the rest of the day until she heard his car pull out of the driveway, it was the limousine and he was on his way with Brenda by his side. Although she felt hurt and knew she would always be second as long as Brenda was still here, she accepted the truth and she had said it to him herself. She was just his maid, his maid that was in love with him but apparently could never have a permanent place with him. Did it piss Riley off? Yes, very much, but she had some faith in what Lucas had said to her, he had assured her that he would work something out and she trusted him. She didn't have what to do, as long as Lucas wasn't in the pack, she was free to laze around, not until Dolph showed up later. "Oh, my fucking back!" He exclaimed as he walked into the living room. He didn't even look around, he already knew Lucas must be gone by now so he just walked straight to the bar. It was only after he had mixed Scotch and water for himself that he noticed Riley sitting
The Lycan's Mate. CHAPTER FORTY FOUR
What?How? That wasn't possible! She couldn't be pregnant, now not! Not when she was just Lucas's maid! Her face turned ashen as she stared up at the doctor, the only question she could ask was, "How far gone?" He looked at her, wondering why she wasn't excited to hear the news, "Is everything alright, miss?""Doctor! Please!" She exclaimed, startling him. "How far gone?" "A week or so." He said. She sat up and ran her fingers through her long, sleek hair. "Oh no! Oh no, no, no, no!" She mumbled, her heart thumping violently against her ribs. This was bad, very bad, there was no other person she could be pregnant for but Lucas. What was she going to do? Could she even say this to him? When he was already engaged to Brenda? This was terrible news, the worst news possible! If she told Lucas this, it would shatter everything he had built up with Brenda and might even smear his reputation. She was a fool not to have been more careful, each time they had sex, he had released into her.

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
The Lycan's Mate. CHAPTER SEVENTY-NINE
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
The Lycan's Mate. CHAPTER SEVENTY-EIGHT
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
The Lycan's Mate. CHAPTER SEVENTY-SEVEN
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
The Lycan's Mate. CHAPTER SEVENTY-FIVE
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
