Torn Between The Alpha And The Lycan King 60
Lessia's POV: Waking up to the news that Kian was about to travel, was by far the strangest, most shocking piece of information I had heard ever since hearing that some woman who looked like me went about breaking special vases at night. That took the award for the most strangest thing, until now.I didn't know which to do; beg him to stay, or beg to go with him. I didn’t want to seem desperate to him, even though I was, and just couldn’t imagine staying here all by myself, without him.It felt like if I chose to go with, I would end up being monitored by him without pause to leave his sight. If I begged him not to leave it would still be same. So I chose a different evil from the rest; just staying and trying to cope with the sure boredom that normally accompanied his absence.And to make matters worse, he wasn't the only person to be leaving; turned out Tara was to follow him too, as the cook that she was. Coupled with some other staff too.It was depressing. Especially with the f

Kian's POV The attacks were becoming alarmingly frequent and I feared for the safety of my pack. The feeling of anxiety covered my mind whenever my attention was drawn to any issue at the guard room. Subconsciously, my mind calculated the number of casualties in state by each waking morning. It kept getting worse and the reality that I could not do anything on my own to stop it made me restless.Whoever was behind this attack definitely had personal issues with me. Because the motive behind the attacks seemed to be the weakening of my pack.I had to act on this issue and quickly, of course. I thought critically, trying to produce tangible ideas that could turn out to be possible solutions. Then, it struck me. Forming an alliance with a powerful Pack Alpha would surely do. All that would require would be an understanding of some sort, where the end benefit for me, especially for my pack would be protection from the external forces of opposition packs.I started running through the nam

Kian's POVBy the time I concluded the meeting with Alpha Matthew, it was almost dusk. The sky looked almost golden, yet dim. A flock of birds formed the letter V, as they flew past the clouds to their nests. At the far East, the moon had began to peek it's bright, beautiful face from beneath the golden orange clouds. The view was serenely beautiful, almost magical. It reminded me of Lessia.Noticing the gradual changes in the atmosphere, I knew it was getting late, and I needed to get back before total night fall. I stood up after finishing my glass of wine. I smiled at Alpha Matthew and extended my hand for a handshake. He declined this gesture, looking at me rather suspiciously, without saying a word."I would like to be on my way now, sir". I said calmly.A light frown kissed his face. His eyes narrowed as he squinted, making them look quite smaller than they actually were. From his facial expressions, I could tell the message he was trying to pass to me, but I decided to feign ig

Lessia's POV In minutes, I came to start thinking of how I looked. I began craving for the mirror. A feeling of low self-esteem flooded my being. In that minute, I felt like nothing but a rag with feelings.I wished I had a better life, other than the one my parents offered me. Maybe if I was born of an influential Alpha and I was properly taken care of, I wouldn’t feel insecure about how I looked.Or maybe it was just the men in my life that made me feel that way. From my step father who made me feel like an abomination, to Maddox who was originally my mate, but rejected me because I was unfit to be even the servant of his Luna, just like he had claimed.Although, Kian was different, I couldn’t stop the feeling of insecurity gnawing inside of me. What if he went to her because he didn’t want me anymore.I couldn't stop myself from thinking about Kian's supposed ex girlfriend, ever since I got told about it by Sonia. I imagined how she would look like. I guessed how her voice might

Kian's POV My head was a pool of confusion. The air in the Pack house was intense as they watched me continuously knocking on Lessia's door, trying to understand why she had acted that way.Her mood before she had come in the room was that of calmness—I even found it too calm, coupled with Icy replies and a blank face. It had come as a really big shock to me when the tears began leaking out of her eyes.I still wondered if it was something I said, or maybe did not say. But for one thing, she didn't come back out of the door no matter how much I knocked when she ran in her room. If only she had.Lessia was a complicated woman, she was delicate, yet complicated. I wondered if it was because she had been through so much before she came here. There was a darkness around her that loomed and seemed to cause her occasional pain. I wish I could take that away and make her whole again.I spent a pretty long time there, waiting until I couldn't hear any more of her sobs and cries anymore. wh

Lessia's POV I left the dining room and headed back to my room after breakfast. As I walked through the hallway leading to my room, I stared at the walls keenly. The feeling of familiarity it gave me was sickening. I was tired of looking up and meeting the stares of these walls all the time. I believed Kian would let me out if I took a guard with me, but he declined rather cruelly. I felt dejected.I arrived at the entrance of my room and reached for the knob. This same door, I sighed. I pushed the door open and went into the room, slamming the door behind me. I collapsed into my bed and ruffled the sheets in frustration. I turned slowly, and faced the ceiling. The boredom was tearing me apart. There was absolutely nothing else to do than sit in bed all day and go down to eat when it was time. That was my routine now. The reality of my everyday life.I wished he even made me work, at least, I would have something to look forward to. But then I hadn’t asked him for that yet, so I had

Kian's POV: It was nearly a day now. A day since Lessia had gone missing. I had called for a search party as soon as I heard of her mysterious disappearance. We combed through the mansion, rummaged behind and before it, scattered our way through the pack, every corner, every crevice and crack that we could search and think of to do some finding, we checked. But still, it was now 24 hours and she still wasn't found.I had called for the guards stationed at the border to ask if they saw Lessia leave, or if they noticed any strangeness, but they insisted everything was normal. And no strange person was seen entering into the pack or leaving.I interrogated all of them to be sure they hadn’t seen Lessia leave, and they all claimed the same thing.I was running out of patience extremely fast. I spent the day with my hands twirling through my hair for the most part, severely impatient, disturbed and withered.I almost called Maddox to ask if he had anything to do with Lessia’s disappearan

Maddox's POV This was a very sly move, one I wouldn’t want to take, under normal circumstances, but Lessia gave me no choice.Despite the countless rejections I had received from her, I just couldn’t give up on her. I knew we started off on a wrong foot, but I was ready to make amends for the past. I couldn’t even believe myself.Lessia had changed so many things about me without realizing it. This could be one of those love stories where a tyrant is changed into a lovable man by his mate.I sat at the study, trying as hard as I could to possess the rare virtue of patience. Having her kidnapped was, of course the best decision I made on bringing her back and I almost could not wait for her arrival. The fact that I was finally going to have Lessia to myself again, excited me. The level of ardor I felt at this point, could be likened to that of a young teenage girl, who had just developed a hard crush.It seemed like it was taking forever for them to arrive. My mind danced with intens

Lessia's POVFive Years Later… “Mummy, we’re waiting, hurry up!” I heard Raphael call out to me.“I’ll be down in a minute.” I yelled back, as I tried to apply the finishing touches to my make up.It was the boys birthday, Raphael had been overly excited about it. He asked for so many things for his birthday, he was looking forward to seeing his wishes being granted.Leo on the other hand, didn’t say much about what he wanted his birthday, well asides from reminding us that he hated chocolate cakes and wouldn’t attend the party if he sees any present. So I made a mental note to not add chocolates to the list of desserts.Kian and I planned the whole celebration by ourselves. After Williams betrayal, five years ago, we still found it difficult to trust people. We made good friendships with some of the parents of our children friends, but it was centered on the kids. We still kept our healthy boundaries.After I gave birth to the twins, Kian became even more overprotective. He didn’t

Lessia's POV: The room was growing darker, as it seemed that light was sipping away in every second as I pushed. I could feel every bit of energy I had in me slipping away.I struggled to steady by breaths, but I kept panting, even though the nurses assured me everything would be fine, I was still afraid for my child and myself.“Arghhh!” I screamed loudly as I felt another sharp pain.“Luna, just hold on tight, you’d be fine, you know your babies are two, so this will take a while, I need you to be strong for them.” The doctor said encouraging me, but her words could only do so little for me.“Arghhhh!” I screamed again. “I don’t think I can do this, I can’t anymore, please make it stop.” I yelled once more as the tears began to stream down my eyes.I had never felt this kind of pain before, it was so unbearable, like there was a machine inside of me constantly squeezing my insides. I want it to stop so bad.“Luna, I’m going to change your position, okay? The nurse will hold you an

Lessia's POV As I walked out of the building, the feeling of fulfillment and satisfaction engulfed my being. I could smell the disdainful surprise on that saucy receptionist as I walked past him. I could tell he did not expect to see me beautifully dressed in the level of confidence I waxed in as I left. It was so obvious he expected to see a broken and downcast woman different from the one that had walked in just moments earlier. That only heightened my pride and the self fulfillment I was already acquainted with.I knew they were all shocked to see me representing kian, because according to their Logic, women shouldn’t be involved in politics. However, I had learnt so much from Kian in so little time.The fact that he didn’t turn me down whenever I asked him about politics made me happy and important. When I was still with Maddox, he often treated me like it was a crime to have knowledge of politics. Whenever he was handling a matter and I wanted to be involved, he would tell me h

Lessia's POV: There I was at the so called Alpha Cabinet once more. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't keep the thoughts of what they tried to do to me and Kian before, out of my head. The walls of the building steadily resounded the voices, words and fingers of suspicion and accusations they pointed at us that day.I could still remember their faces in the blurry edge of my mind. I could still remember everything.But I was prepared that whatever I was going to be thrown at, I would be sure to defend myself in anyway and give it back to them in full force."Hello, I have an appointment with the Cabinet, I am to meet them in the chamber room" I said to the receptionist that mounted the entrance.There had been a change in location due to an incident that happened recently, so I wanted to be sure I was in the right place.Honestly, I preferred the new location, as it was closer to Kian’s pack. That way I felt safer, even though no where was 100% safe.I noticed the receptionist w

Lessia’s Pov Seeing Kian’s unconscious body lying on the floor filled me with so much adrenaline that I didn’t know when I stood up and started screaming for help.Kian’s body was lying besides Williams body, which gave me a nostalgic feeling once more, about how hospitals reek of the smell of blood and death.“Help, somebody please help us!” I screamed again, my voice echoing in the room. Soon, some nurses came running into the room. “Please the Alpha has been shot, I need you to help him immediately,” I yelled.They came back with a stretcher to take Kian, while I followed behind, until we got to a room where he was being attended to.“Luna, you have to wait here, while we attend to him.” A nurse said. I wanted to insist on going into the room with him, but that would only delay his treatment. So I sat patiently and let them do their jobs.While I was waiting for Kian, some of the pack soldiers arrived. The hospital must have alerted them, I thought.The leader approached me with

Kian’s Pov The confrontation with Williams continued. I couldn’t believe he had been the one responsible for all our misfortunes. I was shocked, to say the least, that all these while I had been so gullible to trust the enemy.It all made sense now, why he never trusted Lessia, how easy it was for Maddox to get into my pack to kidnap Lessia. He was the one who poisoned her and told Sonia about my allergies, so she could kill me as well. If they had succeeded, Lessia would have been helpless, I’m sure he would have sent her back to Maddox, to continue to be his sex slave.“You are beyond delusional, Williams, why would you think I would never fall in love and have my own family? Why would you think I would never find my own mate?”He looked at me in a standoffish manner, and soon burst into a fit of laughter.“Can you hear yourself, Kian? Before Lessia, how many people looked your way, huh? How many women actually there themselves at you? No one, Kian. No one. And you know why?” He c

Kian's POV “You can’t possibly me sure that Williams is the one responsible for your misfortunes.” Jason suggested, but I knew he was only playing kind games.“Tell me, you bastard. Did you make this all up just to distract me from the truth? Did you?” I questioned, baring my fangs into his skin, as blood slowly oozed out.“Why would I make this up, Kian? Of what benefit would it be to me? Besides I didn’t tell you it was Williams, you figured that yourself. Which is a huge breakthrough for you, as you’ve failed to do in the past years.”Jason’s words pricked me. All these while, I had been living with the enemy, eating and drinking with the enemy, telling all of my problems to the enemy.How naive could I be? How ignorant could I be? I chided myself. No wonder Maddox thought me to be a fool, he had been communicating with my Beta all along, right under my nose. That was why he was able to reach Lessia and even Kidnap her.Williams and Lessia. These were the only words that appeared

Kian's POV: Where I intended to begin my investigations was none other than Maddox's Pack house, which was now mine by virtue of conquering and Annexation. I knew that if there ever were a secret agent amongst us, that person would be in affiliations with Maddox.I had some friends in the packs close to his, so I sought for their help. Although, Maddox was a man of many secrets, I was hopeful we would find out something, he surely didn’t take them to his grave.I began to doubt Maddox’s death. We were informed he was dead, but no one ever saw his body, no one was invited to his funeral. Was he even buried? I had no idea. My friends didn’t as well.However, if he were alive, he wouldn’t be working alone. Even if he succeeded in infiltrating my pack, which I knew there was no way that would be the case. Someone had to have been feeding Maddox information, and there was no way it could have been Lessia. That was a main reason I couldn't take William's words as law. He was right for me

Kian's POV: I couldn't count the number of times Williams had told me not to worry on that day.How could one be so relaxed after finding out their mate was poisoned and almost lost their children in the process? Only a man like Williams would suggest that to you.Sometimes I wondered if this man felt things that normal people did. Because there was no way someone who had feelings would say that to me.“Are you saying this because you still don’t like Lessia?” I questioned him as he voiced my gaze.“I have nothing against the Luna, Kian. She’s your mate and the mother of the future heirs to the pack. What could I possibly have against her?”There was sincerity in his words. He had no reason to still dislike Lessia, maybe I was the one reading meaning I shouldn’t to his advice. I had always know Williams to be like that, so there was no need expecting him to be different when it came to Lessia.“You don’t understand, Williams. Someone is out to kill Lessia. First, she was being follo
