The Lycan’s Secret Bride: Weak to Strong Chapter Eighteen
SYLVESTERMy mind was alert but darkness was the only thing I could see. It was so dark I wasn’t sure if my eyes were open. The last thing that I could remember was Sienna’s worried eyes staring at me as I handed the little girl to the guards down below the window I stood at. The fire was literally eating the building away. I tried to get out in time and I almost did but then parts of the building collapsed on me.My body should have healed once I started to get burnt but it didn’t. In a way I not only felt the fire burning my skin, it was eating at me from the inside. I started to lose my vision and darkness took over. I heard a voice call out to me in the dark. At first it was faint, then a second later it became demanding. I tried to move, the pain that should have shot through me didn’t come. I peeled my attention away from the voice and tried to search my body.My wolf’s vision couldn’t see a thing either so it was no use trying. I was confused as to why I couldn’t. Where was I r
The Lycan’s Secret Bride: Weak to Strong Chapter Nineteen
SIENNAThe door swung open and a woman walked in. She was stuck between being graceful and hurrying towards Sylvester. I didn’t know who she was and I didn’t know if it was appropriate to stay or leave but I didn’t want to leave. I stared at her as she stalked closer only to start comparing myself to her. She was undoubtedly beautiful and she could pass as an elite model if she wanted to. It was so weird how her eyes held warmth in them and she didn’t have the usually smug look that other women of her class did. She breathed warmth whereas I was just plain old me with the most boring look ever.“Sylvester, thank goodness you’re okay.” She said in a soft voice that could melt the coldest heart. She had her arms around him and she was hugging him like they has something going on between them. My heart tugged in my chest.There was instant resentment building up in my chest. I could feel my wolf getting angry and I didn’t blame her. Another woman was hugging her mate and he wasn’t even
The Lycan’s Secret Bride: Weak to Strong Chapter Twenty
SIENNAMy eyes were as wide as saucers, I was sure of it. Did she just say that he was her fiancé? He was going to wed a woman who was nothing like his mate?“I’m sorry?” I couldn’t help but ask her. I knew I heard what I thought I heard, but what if it was the wrong thing? What if she meant that they were engaged but since I was now in the picture, they were no longer going to be married?She looked taken aback at my question but remained composed as much as I tried to. My chest was hurting, and it felt like my heart had been pulled out of it and smashed on the floor.I kept my eyes away from his, sure that I was going to break down if I had to meet his gaze. He and I were meant to be together but we were poles apart in nature. This should be something I shouldn’t mind happening. I shouldn’t feel hurt that he had someone else if I had to reject him just because our kinds hated each other. Tears pricked my eyes, trying to force their way out but I held them down. I bit my lip and bli
The Lycan’s Secret Bride: Weak to Strong Chapter Twenty One
SIENNAI hadn’t worked with Benjamin for the longest time. But I could tell about him that he was thorough with his searches for information. He wasn’t only good on the battlefield and so far he has shown his knack for sourcing out whatever he was searching for.With folded arms to the chest, I could hear the sound of my heart rapidly beating as I waited for an explanation from him. What did he mean by sabotage?Too many questions ran through my mind faster than I could really think about them. I instantly became worried about Sylvester as it seemed as though someone was out to cause trouble in his pack.“Maybe we should go sit for this one plus I’d hate for someone to hear us right now.” He voiced, peeping through the corridors to make sure that we were indeed alone.He pulled me out, with my hand in his and hurriedly led me to my now parked car. All my thoughts about Sylvester and Tamara vanished at this point.After driving up to a secluded area, he pulled out a document from his j
The Lycan’s Secret Bride: Weak to Strong Chapter Twenty Two
SIENNA Tamara’s demeanour had changed. She literally dragged me out of the room to go with her for the drink. As we walked along, I couldn’t help but wonder why she was acting this way. My mind also stayed restless through the walk. Sylvester was vulnerable and weak at the same time, so what if the person behind the fire sneaked in behind the backs of the guards and he was attacked while in his sleep?Once we got to the lounge where Sylvester and I usually had a meeting in, I couldn’t hold it in anymore. I just had to speak up.“You really don’t think that what I have to say could be really important and Sylvester would want to hear it, do you?” I asked her. My chest was already rising and falling from the fast paced walk I had to go through.But Tamara looked unfazed by what I just said. A small smile appeared on her lips instead and she poured out a drink into a glass and then she took a seat right in front of me. While she was relaxed, my wolf was restless, knowing 2her mate could
The Lycan’s Secret Bride: Weak to Strong Chapter Twenty Three
SIENNAMy anger resurfaced as I thought about all the ways Tamara was trying to intimidate me. Trying to plunge me back into my misery and to rub it in my face that she had Sylvester. Tamara had clearly told me that there wasn't any need to see Sylvester but the whimpering and the whining of my wolf made it impossible to obey anything she had to say. Maybe I was imagining it but a part of me believed that even though she acted stoic and unbothered, she was intimidated by him. She didn't show it, infact, if anything, she acted like I was beneath her shoes. But if she wasn't intimidated by me, If she claimed to be oblivious to the pull between Sylvester and I, then why the hell was she doing everything in her power to keep me away. Why go through all the stress of trying to prove a point to me, trying to make me feel irritated and trying to push me away from my mate. She had told me that seeing him was unecessary but she had been very clear about it and if I obeyed her instructions, w
The Lycan’s Secret Bride: Weak to Strong Chapter Twenty Four
SIENNASylvester looked at me incredulously as I told him about my suspicions. A part of me felt like he wasn't buying anything that I wanted to say. I could see the disbelief flash through his eyes and I ignored the way my heart plummeted in my chest as I looked at him. I don't know why him believing me held so much importance but it did. I wanted him to believe me. I wanted him to know that I had nothing but his best interest at heart. Maybe a part of me was so bent on proving a point to him that it was beginning to mess with me. "I think everyone in the pack is loyal to me. I don't think they'll be so bold to make a move against their alpha" he said, his brows furrowing into a frown as he looked at me. I could see the conflict etched on his face as he looked lost in thought. Maybe he was trying to decipher between believing me or not but I knew that the only way that he could be safe if he took my word for it. "It's impossible to know the intentions of everyone. Not everyone ha
The Lycan’s Secret Bride: Weak to Strong Chapter Twenty Five
SIENNA Benjamin waited for me in the parking lot as I settled down. He looked at me expectantly. I remained quiet for sometime processing my emotions. Tamara sure knew how to bring out the worst in me. "So?""How did it go?" Benjamin asked, his brows furrowed and it was nearly impossible to miss the concern that was etched on his face. I looked at him and released a weary sigh. "He thinks it's impossible that anyone would try to make a move on him since he's the alpha,"I said as I looked at him. Somehow I didn't like that he wasn't willing to accept the truth. Sure, he didn't ourightly tell me that he didn't believe me but still, he doubted that anyone within the confines of his pack would try to make a move on him and I didn't blame him, not at all. Infact, I've seen how he related with his pack so it was quite impossible to tell who would have a vendetta against him. "If he decides to be sentimental about it then that's his business. We've done more than we should have. We've s

SIENNAI was beyond overwhelmed and yet I clutched my weapon closed to the side tightly. The muscles in my body were knotted into tension and no matter how tired I was, I couldn't bring myself to stop. One way or another, I needed to find Benjamin. “I can hear your heartbeat from here,'' Sylvester whispered. I could feel his lips against the lobe of my ear. I could see that some of the soldiers were searching in their human forms while some were in their wolf forms. This wasn't the time to be thinking about how he smelled or what his lips against my body was doing to me.My father had decided to stay back home. Apparently, we might have to conduct another search party for Clara. My father had said that she ran to her room when the attack started. The rogues didn't come anywhere near the house so how was it even possible that she would disappear without a trace? I couldn't even make sense of it. “You think they took her?” I blurted out the question that had been on my mind for some
The Lycan’s Secret Bride: Weak to Strong Chapter One Hundred and Thirty Two
SIENNASylvester and I left the den, ready to confront the return of the rogue attacks on our pack. The air outside crackled with tension, and the scent of anxiety lingered as we approached the site of the disturbance.Drawing near the borders, I observed my father who was encircled by a few pack soldiers. His stern expression betrayed a mix of anger and concern that was apparent in him. The gravity of the situation hung heavily in the air, and I steeled myself for the challenges awaiting us. I saw the force of their destruction up ahead and I crumbled as a wave of despair washed over me. This wasn't supposed to occur if we had been vigilant enough. If I had behaved like a true Alpha was supposed to, these rogues would never have breached our territory. “Sienna, you've got to stay strong. Calm down," Sylvester urged."Easy for you to say; you're not the one whose territory is being destroyed," I snapped, but I regretted my words almost immediately. Swiftly, I apologized, "I'm sorry, I
The Lycan’s Secret Bride: Weak to Strong Chapter One Hundred and Thirty One
SIENNAI sighed, realizing that this was the difficult situation I had put myself in "Dad, let me explain. Sylvester—""Explain? Explain why you're associating with a Lycan. Do you know what they're capable of?" His voice grew louder with each word."Dad, Sylvester is not like the others. We've formed a bond. There is a connection between us. He's different," I insisted, the desperation I felt evident in my voice.His eyes flickered between Sylvester and me, and the disapproval he was feeling was quite obvious on his face. "Different? What in the name of the Moon Goddess is he different from all the others? So far he’s the Alpha.” He ran his hands through his hair in frustration. “Sienna, you're risking everything by involving yourself with him."“If you would calm down and let me explain to you, you’ll see how different he is,” I implored him.“Did he hurt you?”As my father continued his stern warnings, Sylvester remained silent, his demeanor composed. He looked so calm. Wasn’t he w
The Lycan’s Secret Bride: Weak to Strong Chapter One Hundred and Thirty
SIENNAThe moon was gradually surrendering its luminous glow to the impending dawn as Sylvester and I lay entwined in the quiet haven of the cottage. My fingers traced idle patterns on his chest, and I could feel the rhythmic beat of his heart beneath my touch. The silence between us held the weight of unspoken words, echoing the complexity of our intertwined destinies. If anything, I was glad and relieved that we had cleared everything between us and that the tensions were all ironed out. And I was calm now.I knew that Tamara held no place in Sylvester's heart. She was inconsequential to him, and she shouldn’t dare overstep. If she did, I was quite capable of meting out the treatment that such intruders deserved. And I was ready to go home. Back to my pack and back to my dad. I was ready to tell my dad about Sylvester. "Sylvester," I whispered, breaking the silence that lingered in the air. He looked down at me, his gaze tender yet guarded."What is it?" His fingers brushed a stra

SIENNA“But if he doesn’t?” he asked softly“I don’t care what he thinks anymore. It’s either you or no one. But you’re never getting married to Taylor or whatever her name is”“Tamara,” he corrected, a teasing grin spreading across his face.“I don’t care what her name is, and I don’t care who she is either. She’s an Alpha’s daughter, but I’m an Alpha. If she crosses my path one more time, she’s gonna know what this Alpha can do,” I said defiantly. His eyes held a mix of admiration and pride. "Damn, you can’t imagine how turned on I am by this.”“W-wh-what?” I blushed, my face getting beet red and hot at the same time.“You want to see?” He smirked. I slapped his arms in embarrassment. “Stop it, love. You can’t say things like that.”“Are you kidding me?” He chuckled. “Stop pretending like you haven’t seen what it looks like.” He raised an eyebrow at me, the mischief glinting in his eyes.“Oh my goodness!” This was so embarrassing “You can beg. I’ll show you if you beg.” He chuckl

SIENNASylvester stood by the counter of the kitchen with a soft smile on his face as he watched me emerge from down the stairs. I wanted to watch him smile this way at me forever but at the same time, I wanted to go away from him because what he did hurt me. I couldn't help but feel a mix of emotions, but at that moment, I chose to focus on the calmness I felt after the bath, which was really nice, by the way. "Feeling better?" he asked, his eyes filled with genuine concern.I nodded, still unable to find the right words to express my gratitude. The clothes he provided may have been a bit oversized, but they carried a comforting warmth that seemed to extend beyond just the fabric. It was his, and wearing whatever was his just gave me this sense of comfort. "I appreciate this," I finally said, my voice a gentle acknowledgment.He nodded in return, his gaze lingering on me. "It's the least I could do,” he said.“Of course.” The air held a fragile tension, a silent acknowledgment of t
The Lycan’s Secret Bride: Weak to Strong Chapter One Hundred and Twenty Seven
SIENNAThese days I had come to the conclusion that maybe the only person that I put into consideration was myself. I felt selfish, I felt blind, and I felt stupid too. I couldn't make it go away. As if he was only just realizing the impact his words had on me, Sylvester crouched down and stared up at me with sad eyes. “Sienna,” he said softly but I wasn't so sure that I had in me to give him a response. “I'm sorry. I really am. I shouldn't have said what I said. I lost control for a moment,” he said as he looked up at me. I wondered how he could bear to look up at me with the affection in his eyes when all I ever did these days was hurt him, and make it more and more obvious how much I resented him. I knew he didn't mean what he said. Yes, but that didn't mean it wasn’t true. Every bit of it was. I closed my eyes for a moment, trying very hard to put my emotions under control, to gain some sort of composure. But for some reason, I couldn't seem to do that. “I'm having a headach

SIENNA“What do you mean you were running out of options?” I asked, raising an eyebrow at him. My hands were starting to become clammy with sweat. I was beginning to become more and more conscious of my panic as I looked at him. So I pressed my finger against my temple just to calm myself down.He dropped the cup of tea against the bedside table as he looked at me. I didn't know what to do. “I just wanted us to be alone. The two of us needed some alone time,” he replied.“What alone time are you talking about? How do you think it's possible that I could stand to be in the same room with you, knowing that you're going to be married in less than a week!” I snapped. I was trying to let the anger and rising panic not take over me. But this was Sylvester I was dealing with. No matter how I tried to escape from my emotions, from my feelings, he sure did have a way of invoking them and they always came rushing back, no matter how much I tried to escape them. “I'm not getting married," Syl
The Lycan’s Secret Bride: Weak to Strong Chapter One Hundred and Twenty Five
SIENNAI wanted to die rather than feel this pain that was making me suffer. It was happening gradually and that was what I hated about shifting. It was too slow and gradual. “Sienna,” Sylvester called out again as he made his way over to me and crouched down in front of me. His face was contorted in pain, and it was just as if he was going through something similar. I didn’t think it was possible for him to feel whatever I was feeling. It just wasn't possible. I closed my eyes and sighed. Then I started to breathe in and out. I kept breathing in and out again and again. Maybe that was going to help.But I knew that I was deceiving myself. Nothing ever helped when this was happening. All I could hope for, all I could wish for was for the pain to go away. But all I did was internally count as I looked forward to the time that it would be dawn again. “I'm here,” Sylvester said softly. His hands went through my hair in tender soothing motions and I found myself leaning into his touch
