All Chapters of The Lycan King’s Destiny: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

KLAUS' POVI didn’t think I could move that fast.Cradling Kayla in my arms, I pushed through the doors of the hospital, barking orders. The nurses jumped into action, but all I could hear was the pounding in my ears. Kayla’s face, pale and cold, was all I could see.“Get the doctor!” I growled, laying her gently on the bed. Her chest rose and fell, but just barely.As they swarmed around her, I stood frozen at the foot of the bed, helpless. Even in battle I had never felt this type of fear.The doctor finally walked in, she went straight to work, checking her vitals, muttering instructions to the nurses. I paced the room, my fists clenched. Each second that passed made the knot in my chest tighten.“She’s been poisoned.”The words cut through me like a blade. I turned, my eyes locking on the doctor. “Poisoned?”She nodded, her expression grim. “It’s in her system. We caught it in time, but it’s not going to be easy we'll have to flush it out of her system”I stared at her, trying to

Kayla's POVI was prisoner once again. Except that my prison was somewhat comfortable. I sighed in frustration, trying to swallow down the fear I felt for Azel being locked up. Hopefully, she wasn't tortured in there.I didn't know about the dungeons but I had heard about trials and executions. If Azel… No! I couldn't even bear the thought as I clutched the collar of my dress nervously.I forced myself to turn my back on the door, taking in the room I had grown used to the last few crazy weeks, I hated the silence. I hated how helpless I felt knowing Azel was locked up because she tried to help me.The fog in my mind had lifted and I recalled when she came to give me food and promised to help, I didn't expect her to do something so reckless. if I knew I would never have agreed to it.The poisoning was something else I couldn't wrap my head around on my own accord. My feet began moving and I paced back and forth, wondering if Lily's tried to kill me or just frame Azel.My pacing wasn’t

KLAUS' POV“I wouldn't be so cocky if I were you” Kain warned, stepping in close, too close. There was a glint in his eyes. I didn't understand why he felt confident enough to challenge me this way and even proposed such a ridiculous offer.“How I feel is none of your business. You should be the one packing” I retorted, not backing down.“You underestimate me brother. You always have” He muttered. His breath brushed against my skin, venom laced in every word. “This time the ball is in my court and I'll take everything you stole from me Klaus. Everything. The pack, the crown, your face… even Kayla.”Before my brain gave the command, my fist connected with his jaw. The sound of bone meeting bone echoed in the room, and Kain stumbled back, clutching his face. The taste of my anger was sharp in the air, and I could feel the blood pounding in my temples.Kain laughed out, mocking me.“You think that’ll stop me?” he snarled, lunging at me like a rabid animal. His fingers clawed at my throat

Kayla's POV“You have to leave” The guards didn't take no for an answer this time, prying my hands away from the bars Azel was behind and pushing me away from her cells. I didn't fight them, it was no use. Quietly, I made my way through the tunnels, making it back to the grand staircase.I took the steps slowly this time, the wheels of my head spinning working overtime. I wasn't going to break my promise to Azel which meant I would have to get evidence Lily was behind the theft and possibly the poisoning.“Kayla” A baritone voice cut through my haze. I glanced up my eyes locking in with the King's.Only, It wasn’t him.I eyed him carefully this time, I was paying attention. I noticed his scent was different from the King's, a strong musky scent. Not that I needed that to prove it was Kain; his smirk was all the confirmation I needed.I didn’t think I had ever seen the King smile so genuinely, unlike his brother who smirked and laughed all the time and strangely I preferred Klaus' frow

KLAUS' POV“Your Majesty, King Klaus, thank you for joining us on such short notice, but I hope you understand why this is urgent” one of the elders began.Noon crept up faster than I expected. Before I knew it, I was standing before the council members. Their faces, grim and set in stone, betrayed nothing but disapproval. Not a single smile, not a flicker of empathy. They sat in a half-circle, eyes on me as if they’d already passed judgment.“I have no problem with anyone here, but having meetings behind my back is an insult to my position” I started squaring my shoulders bracing myself for whatever they threw my way.“Your brother has as much right as you to schedule a meeting- if you can call it that. He just wanted to talk”“This is still my palace, everything is to go through me first” I retorted, angry by the way they dismissed the issue like it wasn't a serious offense.“That is an issue for another day. Today we've gathered to discuss the crown and the lies you've been feeding
