All Chapters of The Lycan King's Scarred Mate: Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

-Roman- Ana came into my office one morning, now with a smile on her lips. She always woke up with a smile now, and I would very much like to take a lot of credit for that. I believed I was the reason why she was smiling so much. After everything, it seemed she might finally be letting go a little. At least of her anger and hatred, and I had let go of mine. I wasn’t watching her every night now. I was confident she was right beside me and every morning I woke up and found her right there beside me. “Hey,” she said. “Hey.” She walked over to me, and I pulled her down on my lap. She giggled happily and kissed my lips. It felt like heaven. It was really all love and rainbows at the moment. “What are you working on?” she asked. “Thinking.” “Thinking?” “Well, I am trying to find out how we will find some proof so we can put away the lycans who hurt your family.” “I’m guessing a single witness isn’t really enough,” she whispered. I shook my head. “Plus, you were a child, experienc

-Anastasia- I was excited to really meet the only real relative Roman had. I had dressed up, put myself in a nice black dress with long sleeves, and I had put on some makeup. I let my hair stay down, and I put on some heels. I wasn’t sure if I was doing too much, but I wanted to leave a good impression. Shane was very important to Roman, that I knew. I had gotten ready early though, and went downstairs to get some lunch, when the doorbell suddenly rang. I looked at the door, confused. I didn’t believe his cousin would arrive yet. It was pouring down outside. The doorbell rang again, and I shrugged, going over to the door, and then as soon as I opened it, Daphne stormed inside. “Eh… come in?” “Ah shit, I got caught in the stupid storm!” she said and shrugged off her jacket before she hung it up. I looked at her, confused. “And welcome, please make yourself at home,” I told her jokingly. She turned to me, almost looking a bit apologetic. “Sorry, I really just had to get out of my

-Anastasia- Roman still had some work to do, so after he had eaten with us, he went and continued with that. I stayed with Daphne and we talked a little about everything. She told me about her family and what other friends she had. No one was real except Roman. The rest were really for the looks of it. They used each other. Daphne hated the role she had to play, but she didn’t have much choice. She came from a very traditional and powerful family, and playing those games was part of her role. She had to seem proper and perfect. I was glad I didn’t have the same expectations put on me. My family didn’t care much about being proper and perfect. It was about feeling good about yourself and enjoy life. I told Daphne that. “Maybe we should switch families,” she suggested. “Oh, Goddess no! You’re not getting mine!” She and I chuckled, and we smiled at each other. I had not had many friends, but it already felt like Daphne and I were finding a friend in each other. “How is it going betwe

-Roman- I had seen my mate lose all strength in her body and just fall to the floor. I hurried over to her, feeling so scared. I had not seen such a reaction in her before. She had just looked at me and Shane and then she had lost all strength. I gently grabbed her and held her in my arms. She was already sweaty and growing so pale. I really didn’t like it, but I knew it really was just another one of her episodes, and all I could do was wait and see what would happen. I called out her name gently, feeling so worried. I didn’t like it. I hated when this happened to her, but it wasn’t long then she was opening her eyes a little. I kept calling out to her, and I stroked her warm cheek. Ana then surprised me as she sat up, like she hadn’t just experienced a violent episode and she looked around a bit like she wasn’t sure what was happening. Daphne and I helped her stand, and I was sure Ana just wanted to go lie down and rest. It always was hard on her when these things happened to her. S

-Anastasia- I wasn’t going to wait for Roman to come and stop me this time. He would not stop me from killing the true culprit behind all of this and who seemed to want to hurt him, too. I still wasn’t completely sure if Shane was after his cousin, too, but I had been right. My family had been made an example of. They died because the lycans felt my father had overstepped… my brother had been torn apart and my mom… I couldn’t even think about it without feeling such anger and hatred that it hurt me, almost. I was going to show Shane, though. He would not get out of this it this time. I was here to remember and pay him back for his crimes. “Is Roman your next target?” I asked him. “My cousin?” “Do you want to hurt him, too?” I asked. Shane smiled. “Do I think the lycans deserve a better king? I do.” “And if Roman and I died, that would be you, right?” “It would be,” he said. “You’re not even sorry about what you have to do, right?” I asked him. “Not one bit.” “You really are
