All Chapters of Ruthless Lycan King: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

Tatiana. “A duel? Why the sudden change of mind? I thought you already promised me your daughter’s hand, your majesty.” Benjamin’s irritated voice echoes around us as we sit in my father’s throne room. My father, Ernard Thorison is the Alpha King of the Beipheton kingdom and he has many packs under his rule. He had just told us the council of Alphas felt it wasn’t fair for me to be mated to Alpha Benjamin as he isn’t my fated mate. They demanded to be given a fair chance. A duel would be held in a week and the winner will get to be my betrothed and my husband in a day’s time. “Papa, I'm in love with Alpha Benjamin. The duel is not necessary.” I say as I look up at him and he sighs. The crown on top of his greying dirty blond hair now looks heavy as he frowns at my words, deep in thought. “We have to do this for peace’s sake, Tatiana. If I don’t appease these Alphas, they might rebel and plan a usurpation.” I feel my heart thundering in my chest. My father’s throne was impo

Tatiana.I feel the taut muscles in the beast’s leg that I’m holding start to relax and his furry body suddenly transforms back to its human form. Although I refrain from letting go, I do not attempt to look up either. Even though I try to ignore it, I can see the huge appendage in between his legs through my peripheral vision and it terrifies me. I’ve never seen a man’s nudity before. Without all that fur he was completely exposed right now. “Fine then. Ernard, your daughter is smarter than you. We could have avoided all the bloodshed.” Roy’s deep voice echoes from above me and he roughly drops my father to the floor. I feel relief spread through my body and I get up to run to my father but a large hand wraps around the nape of my neck and pulls me back into a hard, naked chest before I could reach him. A squeak escapes my lips as my heart bangs violently against my ribcage. “Did I allow you to go?” He snarls viciously in my ears and I feel an eerie shiver run down my spine. My

Tatiana. I quickly step out of the weird-looking tub and grab a towel that was on a rack, wiping myself dry. My clothes are sticking to my skin and I’m practically naked but I don’t have time to start looking for clothes. I have to leave this place. I have to protect my virginity. There’s no way I’m giving it to that beast. Putting the towel back, I walk towards the window and stand on my tiptoes to look around. My heart drops when I see three men standing guard outside. Did Roy know I would try to run? What a sly man he is. How am I supposed to escape now? Should I just sit and let him devour me? I shake my head, biting my lip as I step away from the window, pacing. I’ll say I’m on my period. Yes, that’s a good excuse. Since I can’t escape, I return to the tub and get into it. It’s not like my tub back home but it’s comfortable. I don’t get completely naked, afraid that Roy would walk in on me and I don’t want him to see my body. It’s better not to tempt the beast in any wa

Tatiana. My eyes hurt. I can hardly open them. It seems I had cried myself to sleep last night. The loud growl of my stomach indicates how I had slept on an empty stomach too. It seems no one thought to bring me anything to eat. Not that it surprises me, I’m just a slave here. The pain in my sides tells me I had slept on the cold, hard ground and I'm still clad in my inner garments that are now dry. Looking around, I find the place empty with Roy's bed still as neat as it was yesterday. So he didn't come back… I frown as I force myself to get up. Why would that bother me? As I adjust to the brightness seeping through from the sun outside, memories of what happened yesterday flow through my mind with so much force that I almost have a splitting headache. I reach up my hand to touch my face, and my heart sinks when I feel the ridges from the scars given to me by that strange woman. So it wasn't a dream. I had hoped it was. How do I go on with this face? How do I even

Tatiana. "Then rest in peace in advance." His words keep swirling in my mind and I can't help the anger bubbling up within my chest. I should have said more. When he insulted me and called me a slut, I should have stood up to him and told him off. He may be a King out here but I'm the future Queen of the whole kingdom. He has no right to treat me with so much contempt. It's not like I had planned to seduce him. If not for my wolf, I wouldn't have made a fool out of myself like that. The question I have is why is she behaving like this? Before now, she hadn't made herself known to me apart from yesterday and I don't even know her name. I feel like she's not even the one. It feels like there is something else inside me. Something that doesn't care about the rules and I'm afraid of what it may make me do. A thought flashes through my mind and I frown. I hope I'm not possessed by something because I'm sure the next time I behave like that in front of Roy, he will take what
