All Chapters of The Lycan King's Fated Mate: Chapter 81 - Chapter 90

Crazy options!!!I paced faster, my mind already racing with possibilities. “You’re right. If I can turn the packs against her, the elders might reconsider, or at least hesitate.”“That’s right. And as for Lucas and Simon… keep a close eye on them. They may seem indifferent, but if they truly loved you, they wouldn’t let this happen so easily. Don’t trust them blindly.”Her words were a painful reminder of my vulnerability. Lucas and Simon had been the center of my world for so long, but now it seemed like that world was crumbling. Could I really trust them? Or had they already made their decision to side with Ashley?“I understand,” I whispered, my voice hardening. “I’ll handle this.”“And Veronica,” my mother added, her tone softening slightly, “remember this: power is not given, it’s taken. You’ve fought too hard for your place to let it slip through your fingers now. Do what you must.”With that, the line went dead. I stood there for a moment, staring blankly at the phone in my ha

An old friend...As I hung up the phone, a plan began to form in my mind. I couldn’t fight this battle head-on, not yet. Daniel, Elder Baron, the entire council—they were too powerful. But there were others out there, those who had not yet chosen sides, those who still remembered my rule and believed in my vision for the kingdom.I needed allies. I needed to remind them who I was, what I had built, and why I would not simply vanish.The first name that came to mind was Fabian. Although he might have been a pain in the ass a while back, the little warning I gave him by getting Lucas and Simon to look into him should be enough to get him on my side this time. I had been loyal to him, and now it was time for him to return the favor. After all, we had mutual goals and aspirations.I had heard whispers that he had gone into hiding after Lucas and Simon’s thorough investigation. And if I'm being completely honest, I can't really judge him for doing that. It might seem like they’re approacha

Training...My mind raced. Although the boys and I had been in the mansion for about a month, Lucas and Simon still hadn't said anything regarding their supposed training. After all, that was the exact reason why they brought us here in the first place. I couldn’t trust them, and they clearly didn’t trust me either, but could I really blame them? Their biggest concern was me sneaking out with the kids, and given the number of escape attempts I had made during our time here, I couldn’t blame them for that.Now that they had finally decided to discuss the children’s future, I didn’t know what to feel. My emotions were all over the place, unpredictable like the gusts of wind that rattled the windows at night. Whatever Lucas and Simon had to say, I had to hear it, but I needed to tread carefully. The danger that clung to them was real—especially after overhearing their lethal plans. Everything seemed to be moving faster than ever, and any wrong move could mean the end for me and my childr

Dethroned....I woke up early the next morning, my mind still troubled from the conversation with Simon. The accusations, the doubt—it all lingered in the back of my mind like a storm cloud that wouldn’t clear. Lucas and Simon are still blind to Veronica’s manipulation, and there is nothing I can do to change their minds.But I am not powerless. Not anymore.I dressed quickly, pulling on the plain tunic I had worn for the past few weeks since returning to the castle. The corridors were quiet as I made my way through the halls, but I could sense the tension in the air. Everyone knew what today was—Veronica’s day of reckoning. She would face the council for her incompetence in the recent attacks, but I suspected something much deeper was at play.I needed to speak to Lucas. He had been distant, caught up in his duties as not just king, but also in the recent training sessions Luke and Simeon had been undergoing. However, I couldn’t let things continue like this. I wouldn’t let Veronica

The search...."Simeon?? What are you doing here?" I asked, looking at the tiny figure that had now come out of the shadows. His face was buried in his chest as he avoided looking me in the eye. I stared at him as he remained silent for a while. Even though I wanted to dismiss his behavior, I just couldn't brush it off, especially since we weren't in our own house. If he could sneak into this library without anyone knowing, then only the goddess knows where else these children could go without being caught. My concern wasn't that he was wandering around—children like to explore—but this place held too many secrets and hidden messages that could potentially harm my children's innocence. I couldn't let this go so easily."Simeon, I asked you a question. What are you doing here?" I asked again, my voice firmer as I urged him to look at me. He did, but quickly dropped his gaze once he saw how tense my expression was."M...mommy, I...the thing is, I...""Can't you speak anymore? Simeon, I
