All Chapters of The Lycan King's Rejected Daughter: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

JAREK I am sitting with the guys outside of the main building at the college, waiting for my first class to start. My phone buzzes in my pocket. My father's name flashes across the screen. Letting out an annoyed sigh, I press the ignore button. I have been avoiding his calls ever since the rogue attack on Lycan City. I know that he is probably concerned about me but I don't have time for one of his lectures. My phone buzzes again. Excusing myself from the guys I walk away so I am out of ear shot and I reluctantly answer the phone. "Hello, Dad," I groan. "Is that any way to greet your father?" My father responds harshly. "Hello, Father," I address him more formally. "That's better," he says with a chuckle. "I hear there was a little bit of a problem over there a few days ago. I am hoping that you proved yourself and didn't run away like a sissy." I breathe heavily into the phone. "No, Father. I fought alongside the prince and the king." "Atta boy," my fath

KEENA"Don't touch what is mine," Jarek growls loudly and everyone in the hallway stops and stares at the scene that is unfolding in the middle of the hall. Jarek pulls back his fist again and hits Ward across the other side of his face. Blood begins to drip down Ward's lip and onto his blue t-shirt. Wiping the blood from his lip with the back of his hand, Ward looks at me and his eyes are swirling to black in anger. I know at any moment his lycan is going to come forward. With an open hand, Ward smacks Jarek across the face, dropping him to his knees. Jarek hops to his feet ready to fight back. Jarek lunges for Ward, knocking them both to the ground. Both of them are rolling around on the ground landing punches where they can. Suddenly, Chad comes over and pulls Ward off of Jarek. The two men step back from one another and glare at one another as they wipe the blood from their faces. Knowing I need to diffuse the situation, I step in between the two angry shifters an

KEENA Today wasn't the worst day I have had in a long time. The girls in my classes were actually nice to me and didn't whisper about me behind my back. Several people had asked if Ward was my new boyfriend. To which Ward responded gruffly to each one that it wasn't any of their business. Each time I could feel my face flush with embarrassment but the look in Ward's eyes told me not to object with what he said. So, I didn't. Now rumors are spreading throughout the school that the Princess has finally taken a boyfriend. Ward and I return home to my father standing on the front steps of the royal mansion with a very irritated look on his face. "Hi, Daddy," I say sweetly as I stand on my tiptoes to give him a kiss on the cheek. My father ignores me and looks straight at Ward. "I didn't know you would be taking my daughter to school in... that." He gestures towards Ward's mustang. "I am sorry, Your Highness. I didn't realize that you wouldn't approve of my car." Ward s

KEENA The hushed sound of voices rushes through my head causing me to wake from my sleep. "Her powers are too strong," Sister Edith states. "She needs to go to a coven to be trained." "I wasn't trained at a coven," my mother chimes in. "And your powers are mediocre at best," Sister Edith's voice is becoming louder as she speaks. My mother cackles loudly and my eyes fly open. "Mediocre," she laughs loudly. "Sister Edith, you have always been funny." I can hear Sister Edith slam the end of her cane up against the floor of my room. "Mark my words," she says as she hobbles out of my bedroom. "The strength of the magic she carries does not match the strength within. She will never be able to harness her powers." "She will learn," my mother calls after Sister Edith but Edith does not answer my mother. She merely continues her way out of my room. "Mom," I try to call out to her but my voice is hoarse. My mother turns to look at me and is at my side in a moment.

JAREK Her bodyguard bursts through the door and shoves me out of the way. "Focus on me, Keena," he whispers intimately to her. Keena takes her eyes off of me and looks deeply into the bodyguard's eyes. "Ward," she whispers as she closes her eyes. I watch in horror as her bodyguard runs his thumbs down her cheeks. Keena lets out a relaxing sigh and the flames that were erupting from her fingertips are slowly disappearing leaving minimal damage on her bed. As soon as the rage that is swarming around Keena is extinguished her bodyguard turns to me and glowers at me. "You need to leave." "I don't think that is for you to decide," I snap back at him. Slowly Keena opens her eyes and lets out a calm sigh. "You need to leave," she says to me with disappointment in her eyes. "I clearly cannot control my emotions around you." "This conversation isn't over," I growl at her as I turn on my heels and leave the room. I am mumbling to myself as I make my way back down to the
