All Chapters of Promised To The Lycan King : Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

*Valeria*How the hell was I going to get myself out of this mess?The room was dark, and for the first time, I truly worried about Dominic finding me. I knew that he would save me, I had every faith, but moving again would only hinder him.And with the baby growing in my belly, I didn't know how much time I would have left.Baby…in my belly.Even though I knew the truth of the witch's words, the news was still shocking. At every chance I got, I noticed my hand drifting to rub softly over my belly. If I hadn't been going through the worst and most stressful time of my life I probably would have realized sooner.And now, it might be too late: I might get sold soon…It has to be better than Declan, I told myself repeatedly to get myself through it. Anyone had to be better than Declan…for one thing, they wouldn't have the same personal vendettas against me. Maybe his selling me would be for the best.I didn't believe my thoughts, but they were the only thing keeping me going at th

*Dominic*I paced back and forth through our bedroom, a new favorite pastime of mine.It was the only thing that kept me from going insane while Valeria was missing. Standing around or sitting at a desk practically made me rip my hair out. So while pacing didn't get much accomplished either, it at least helped me take the worst edge of me and my wolf."Mate, mate, mate," he seemed to whine continuously in my head."You aren't helping," I snapped."Are you?" he asked, making my pacing stop.He had a point.Suddenly, there was a knock on the door, and I rushed to open it. The only one who was brave enough to bother me lately was someone with good news.I opened the door to see my Beta standing there."What is it?" I demanded immediately, though he didn't need my question."The Alpha's are here."Caleb's news was good, but I still felt my heart tighten. Every time I saw anyone I hoped it was better news: news that they found her.But still, I would have to take what I could ge

*Valeria*“Someone…anybody…please, I need your help,” I held onto my belly, the pain no longer bearable while I stayed in this secluded room. For the past hour that I’ve stayed here, I heard nothing except the sound of water dripping from the roof. “Anyone...” No matter how hard things would be from now on, I try my best to remain calm as the pain continues to intensify inside my belly while I struggle to breathe properly.I don’t even know what time it currently was anymore since there weren’t any signs that indicated how late or early it might get. Still, I continued my call for help, not stopping until I heard the creak of a door swinging open.“Please help! Help! I’m here, please, I beg you!”Two pairs of heavy footsteps approached and I looked up to see two figures walking my way. When they were in front of me, I realized that they were Alpha Felix’s men. “Help,” I pleaded weakly while my eyes stung as tears began rolling freely from them and down to my face like tiny stre

*Valeria*He found me. He found me. Just as I knew he would.The door burst open and Dominic appeared before me, no longer a face in a screen, but the real man.His appearance was shocking with the blood so bright against his too pale skin, but I didn't care. All I cared about was him."Dominic!" I sobbed out, trying to jump from the bed.Before my feet had even made it to the floor I found myself wrapped in his arms. I clung on hard, crying into his shoulder as his hands rubbed up and down my back and head attempting to soothe…well, and probably, like me, scared that this wasn't real.But the tingles that danced over my skin proved that it was real: Dominic was here and he had saved me."I've got you doll," he choked back. "I've got you."The days, weeks, maybe even months that had passed of torture and pain, and uncertainty were overshadowed by the warmth that was flooding through my body at his embrace.I never wanted to leave it again.But then, he swayed slightly. Domini

*Valeria*"Well, it turns out that you have indeed been poisoned," the doctor said as he walked back into the small room with a small chart.My stomach dropped at his words."Is it serious?" I asked."I'm not sure," he said slowly. "I wish you would have let me examine you earlier!""Dominic was more important," I answered automatically, causing him to do a 'humph' sound that only the elderly ever nailed."His was more dire perhaps, but that doesn't mean that you aren't important as well, Luna," Doc said. "Especially since his majesty would kill me if anything happens to you.""So let's make sure it doesn't," I said, smiling past my exhaustion. "Now…about this poison?""Oh, yes," he said, looking back down at the chart. "The levels in your blood are fairly low. I am sure that you ingested minimal amounts in something like food or water, but it wasn't high enough for it to have been delivered straight into your bloodstream, as in by needle."Didn't do anything to me, my ass.
