All Chapters of The Lycan King's Rejected Mate: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Chapter 22I stood up in shock so suddenly my chair knocked backward. The whole hall went up in uproar. Guards came up to drag the doctor away, probably to lock him up somewhere.Everyone had their own opinions about everything that had gone down, and the commotion automatically signaled the end of the trial. The whole thing was chaotic and I suddenly felt like I couldn’t breathe so I pushed my way out of the court. In my peripheral vision, I saw Arnou get up and push after me but I ran fast toward my room and shut the door.I remember how I had questioned the doctor on how sure he was that his diagnosis was currently considering the fact he didn’t carry out a test first. I remembered the way Arnou hadn’t stood up for me when Alisa had slapped me and insulted me for daring to propose that their doctor was incompetent.I sank to the floor behind my door and wept into my hands. I wept for all the embarrassment I had undergone for no reason. I couldn’t help but wonder if something was wr

Chapter 24I stood still at the entrance of the garden as Herley cried out again in alarm.“Is anyone there?”I honestly didn’t care that she heard me, my mind was consumed by thoughts of my phone that contained major evidence.When I had fallen, my phone slipped out of my hands, and so I was furiously trying to find it.The person who was speaking to Herley did not make a sound, as Herley came inching toward my hiding spot.In a panic, I spun around desperately trying to find my phone.I finally found it under a rose bush. I went to pick it up and wasted no time sprinting back the way I came.While running, I made no effort to be quiet so Herley started chasing the source of the noise.I knew I couldn’t run back to my room because that would give me away, so I turned left and ran down to the servant’s quarters.I could hear Herley chasing after me, I turned back to see the distance she had gained. She was already so close.Ahead of me, the door to the servant’s quarters loomed and I k

Chapter 26I stared at Arnou in silent trepidation. I have always hated secrets, something about being excluded from important information just didn’t sit well with me.“Arnou please tell me, what are you keeping from me?” I asked Arnou solemnly.“The pack we’re going to visit first is called the Wind Jasper pack and it’s alpha is my arch nemesis Duke.Duke and I have had an ongoing feud for as long as I can remember.” Arnou replied me with an expression that mirrored mine.No wonder Arnou had been troubled and distant since we started this trip.I wondered how strong this feud was though. I mean was it even safe to be going to their pack?Did we need more protection than a few guards could offer?“Exactly how deep does the feud between the two of you run?” I asked Arnou curiously.“Well Duke was my last standing opponent for the lycanthropy position. And he never quite got over his defeat so you get how serious his dislike of me is.” Arnou replied.Okay I was seriously getting worri

At least that’s what I thought when I first glanced at them. But when I noticed that Arnou was still and Valeria was the only one moving, I came to the conclusion that he had been drugged.I couldn’t let Duke know that I had caught on to his ploy of course so I cried out like some betrayed lover.I thrashed about like I was hurt and pained by Arnou’s supposed betrayal. Duke feel for it and left my arm for one second.Immediately the leash that I had kept on Eva since snapped and I shifted immediately.Duke was too stunned to react immediately. The moment I shifted, I wasted no time in running to Arnou on the bed.I didn’t even bother with pushing Valeria away, I couldn’t afford to fight both her and Duke. Instead I saw my fangs into Arnou’s tight and the pain woke him in a flash.He looked so confused by the entire situation but Duke had shifted and I knew there was no time so I bounded out of the room.Arnou seemed to recognize my wolf in the midst of his confusion and shifted as w

I felt a surge of strength momentarily as I stared at the sight before me.Fresh wolves had come to join the battle, about fifty of them. Duke and his army didn't even stand a chance as the new wolves tore through their ranks. They were led by an imposing-looking wolf who fought as viciously as I would have imagined him to.All the wolves who had been attacking me had focused their efforts on fighting the new army and the wolf whose face I had shredded lay dead flung across the floor with his stomach torn open by one long swipe.I tried to search for Arnou amidst the commotion and when I saw him I let out a growl of anger at the wolves still battling with him. Arnou was dragging one limb behind and he was covered in injuries but he still fought viciously.I tried to rise and help Arnou battle the wolves that were threatening to overwhelm him but I couldn’t stand on my ruined leg while it was trying to heal.Two of the wolves battling against Duke’s army seemed to notice the source
