Adrian's POV "You almost killed that boy. He's just a child." Cenat said. "I allowed my emotions go ahead of me." I replied still trying to let off aome steam. "What is this all about?" He asked, "Why do you need another breeder?" He asked. I sent him a look, "Do you have to ask that?" I asked in return. "I do." Came his firm reply. "I know just how much trouble we all went through to find that girl." I wasn't in the mood for Cenat's lecture."I just don't want her anymore." I replied. "You don't have to want her, just get her pregnant and that's all." "You think I haven't tried?!" The anger was back. He raised his brow, I knew what he was trying to do, he wanted me to flare up and say everything. That bastard knew me so well."I have poured almost a gallon of my seeds into her yet she haven't taken in, she isn't even showing any symptoms. It's making me seem as though I'm just wasting my time." A tearstained face flashed through my head. "Is that what the problem is really?
Adrian POV Kyna stared at me with misty eyes, "What are you waiting for then?" She asked. I sent her my favourite smirk, "This will be the best night of your life." Her face turned red instantly, the dim lights in the room gave her a different kind of glow. I pushed back the loc of hair that strayed on her face. "You're beautiful Kyna." "You're beautiful yourself." She muttered. "Men aren't beautiful, we are tough beings." I said taking her lips with mine. She tasted just as usual, sweet and salty. My tongue pried her lips, parting them for entrance, she obliged drawing me in. Her hands wandered aimlessly on my back, they grazed up and down my spinal cord sending strong waves of current to my dick. I became hard instantly. My hands circled her waist pulling her up so she could sit on my hardness. Willingly, she obeyed."This is what you do to me Kyna." I sent a nudge to her sweet spot. She released a hungry gasp.I knew without doubt that she was wet down there, she was achin
Lupe's povIt was three days after he had not only rejected me, but had totally embrassed me. I was still indoors, not once did I dare show my face. Even when Kyna had come hitting the door and threatening to break it down, I still did not leave my position. Dave kept on knocking to see if I was fine, Sarah came twice to threaten me to resume my duties or I will be flogged yet not once did I reply anyone. They stopped after trying for two days. Adrian's harsh voice kept replaying in my head, I willed for it to go away but stubbornly it stayed."I hate him!" I screamed with tears streaming down my face. I know I shouldn't cry, but I couldn't help it. A part of me had been prepared that day for his rejection but a larger part of me wanted him to accept me. "I was so foolish." I sniffled, "why did I think that he could change? He's nothing more than a beast, he had taken me forcefully under his custody and had forced his way into me." "It's all my fault." Leah muttered, her voice was
Sebastian POV Mother was right, Adrian was cursed. His curse was his downfall and it was my uprising.I stared at the white wolf that gazed at her reflection on the flowing stream with an excited yet uncertain expression on her face. I made sure to stay hidden in the woods. Adrian was a fool to reject her, I didn't care about her personality or anything; I just needed to win her over until she falls head over heels for me. According to the rumours, she had yet to conceive and this was the best time to strike. I would get her to love me, make love to her and have her carry my pup instead. Mother had said that all I need to do was to persuade the breeder, she was one special wolf. 'Did you forget how she rejected you the other day, saying that she belonged to the King?' A voice in my head said wanting to ruin my momemt. "I don't care about that, since when have I followed the rules?" I asked in return without taking my eyes off her. Her wolf released a soft howl into the night wi
Lupe's POV Today, I finally decided that I was totally done crying over the Lycan King, I was done sulking so I needed a break. Last night at the woods, I had perceived something so dark and evil, I felt as though it was watching my every move, it made me uncomfortable but I was not afraid. I knew something inside me had changed. Leah's transformation had nor only left me stunned, it had made me fearless too. My bones felt stronger than before.I walked to the bathing room with my belongings in my free hand and a bucket of water in the other. "Do you think the bath chambers will be free?" I asked Leah."It should be, the day is still very much young." She answered. She was right, I had woken up very early in the morning to take my bath to avoid running into people with curious gaze. I was still a little sceptical about meeting people. I glanced at the sky, it was pitch dark. "Seems like the night is still fresh." I murmured. "We woke up really early." Leah replied then released
Lupe's POV The tray in my hands dropped to ground a clatter and it's contents scattered about."What kind of joke is that Mira?" Sarah asked gripping Mira's hands, "That silliness will get you killed in no time." Mira's face was red, she had snot runnung down her nose. "I really wish that is the case, but it's not." Sarah slapped her on the arm, "The King will have your head if you keep saying that." She snapped.I glanced at Sarah, her hands were trembling, she was in denial even when she knew that Mira might be telling the truth. "Tell us what happened." I said sitting on a stool, for some reasons my hands were trembling. I never liked Kyna, and she hated me too but hearing the sudden news of her death was enough to overwhelm me. Mira slumped to the ground, her shoulders jerking in rhythm of her throaty cries. "You're joking right?" Sarah asked, this time she was calmer, her eyes were wide in shock. "T.. they just found her body dangling on a pole by the gate." Mira choked.
Adrian POV At night the previous day.."Your majesty, I have some wonderful news for you." Kyna was all smiles as she jumped on my bed."You came at the right time, I'm hard." I sent her a lazy smile.She rolled her eyes, "I get that you love me so much, but I am starting to think you enjoy sex with me rather than my company." I grabbed her waist pulling her close, "I can't help the fact that you're so beautiful and the mere thought of you is enough to make me hard." Her melodious laughter made me smile. "Did you see the things I sent to you?" I asked planting a kiss on her neck as she snuggled against me."I did, I was here earlier to express how grateful I am but you were in a meeting with Beta Cenat." She said playing with the hem of her robe. "You can expressed your gratitude now." I said with heat in my eyes. She smiled as her fingers trailed lazily up my thigh till they were dancing dangerously close to my dick."You are playing with the King's meat Kyna." I muttered, need
Adrian's POV I stared at her lips, they were turning purple but I couldn't bring myself to let go. For some reason, I kept recalling her smiling face. She had wanted to speak to me, but foolishly I didn't give her chance to. Was it possible that she knew her killer? Had she been feeling threatened before we met last night?I was so stupid for ignoring her. My hands shook, her eyes were wide open but unstaring. They looked scared. "I'm so sorry Kyna." I whispered closing her eyes with my hands. "All you did was love me and that has caused this to you." I felt as though a part of me was broken. Ignoring the blood that left my clothes drenched, I pulled her to my chest."My Lord." Cenat cleared his throat, he had left earlier. "I think it's time we put her to rest, her wounds are severe." "No.. she's a strong girl, she might heal..." my eyes widened, "hurry Cenat, call a healer, she might still live." Her laughter kept ringing in my ears. He walked closer, "My Lord, she's gone w
Lupe's POV Someone might have tried to kill him, his hand fell weakly to his side. I tried to raise him up but it was futile, he was way bigger than I was, his hands alone were too big for me to lift. I tried to think fast, even if I managed to lift him up, I will have to answer to the guards, they might think I tried to kill him. I couldn't leave him like this, I would not forgive myself. But he deserves it. A voice that wasn't Leah said. "I still don't have the courage to do that." I replied."His friend." Leah said calmly."Does he even have one?" I asked shaking my head at his sorry state."He might not look like, but he does." Leah answered. "Who on earth would even want to be his friend?" I asked feeling all the emotions he made me feel come back all at once. The pains, the hate, the sadness, I wanted nothing more than to see him broken but now that I was looking at him, I couldn't leave him like that."The Beta, I believe they are friends." She replied."How can I find him
Lupe's POV I laid on my bed feeling restless and unable to sleep. "Leah, do you think he's okay?" I asked. "I'm as worried as you are, but there's nothing we can do about it." She replied. It was late at night yet here I was instead of sleeping, I was thinking about the same man who had brutally rejected me. "What the fuck is wrong with me?" I groaned closing my eyes as I rolled on the bed."I have no idea, but I can totally relate to how you're feeling." She replied. "That's because you're my wolf and you're a part of me." I said in reply. "Maybe." She was quiet for a while. "What's Sebastian's deal?" She asked. I shook my head, "I have no idea, he keeps popping up when he shouldn't. I told him that his proposal was not acknowledged because I belonged to the King but he refused to give up." "Do you think he's telling the truth?" She asked. "I have no idea, talking about this made me remember the day Kyna caught me in the bush with him." "If it wasn't for Dave, you would ha
Adrian's POV I picked up a bottle from the wine bar, undid the cork then took a long swing. "Are you alright?" She asked staring at me. I laughed, "of course, they think this would bring me down?" I shook my head. "I'm stronger than that." She nodded, "I'm glad, I was scared that you might be hiding in your bedroom away from everyone." I sent her a look."I'm sorry about your loss your highness." She placed her hand on mine, for a moment, I wanted to accept her condolences but I snatched my hand away from her hold. "Thank you." I said taking another swing.She held two cups, "You might want to use these instead." I placed the bottle on the table while she picked it ip serving the drinks. "You mentioned a certain they, what do you mean?" She asked. "Was she killed on purpose?" She asked offering me a glass.I emptied it's contents down my throat. "I don't want to talk about it." I replied watching her refill my glass. "I understand." We drank in silent, each of us lost in our
Adrian's POV "Speak!" My eyes were red, my claws longed to dig into her flesh. "No one sent me." She fell on her knees holding my leg. I moved away from her gasp as Cenat stood before me proactively."Why are you here?" He asked in a more aggravated tone. "I came to see my brother.""Who is your brother? Does he work here?" Cenat asked. "L.. Leo, I heard he was framed for the murder of the King's maiden." She said."Framed?" I scoffed. "Who told you that?" Cenat asked. "Ethan, he stopped by my house earlier." She said with teary eyes."Ethan? A guard here too?" Cenat asked."Yes, he's Leo's friend." Cenat laughed, "he stood against him today telling hin to face the music of his punishment." Her face fell, "N.. no! Ethan loves Leo, they have been friends since childhood." Cenat and I exchanged a glance. "Please your majesty, Leo would never hurt anyone, he hates the smell of blood. He would not be so stupid to kill the King's beloved." The image of Kyna's bleeding body flash
Adrian's POV Kyna had been laid to rest. She was thoroughly cleaned and dressed in newer clothes. "The bastard?" I asked. Cenat breathed heavily."He's in the dungeon just as you commanded." He replied. "I'm sorry for what happened to Kyna." He apologized staring at me."Hmm." I muttered staring into space. "How about the council?" "I made sure they were kept in the dark." He replied. "Good." We sat in silence for sometime, each of us lost in our own thoughts. "Do you really think he did it?" I asked suddenly. Cenat glanced at me in shock, "You don't?" He asked in return.I shook my head."Why do you think so," he asked. "An expert with knives can easily tell that those marks were caused by deep resentment." I stared at Cenat, "What happened between them was not enough for such resentment." "He was in love with her yet she was with you." He said, "love can make anyone go crazy." "I don't think a man would hurt a woman he loved like that." I said getting up."Is that the act
Lupe's POV Dave walked me into the garden, his steps slow to match mine. "I really feel horrible." I said feeling my stomach turn in disgust, the food I ate earlier threatened to come back up. "Let's find somewhere to sit." He held my hand leading me to a log of wood. I settled in closing my eyes. "Are you okay?" He asked. "Not after seeing Kyna like that." I replied, my stomach sent another signal. "She must have been scared." He leaned into the tree's bark. I imagined Kyna's once proud and fearless face turn into one of fear, her pretty face filled with lines of etched by dread. I could almost see her pleading for her life. I bit back the bile in my throat."I know Kyna can be annoying sometimes, but I can't help but wonder just how much she had offended the killer to have met such fate." I said.Dave wrapped his arm around my shoulders. "People are the most scariest creatures. Killing her was enough, but doing that to her body was just pure evil, only a wicked witch woul
