Thank you for reading. Please leave me a gem and a review if you're enjoying it.
Roy. The only time I wanted to face that bastard Ernard is when I take back the throne and rip his heart out to avenge my parents. But the pack has been having problems lately. The water in the well is drying out and the small stream is drying out because the dam was blocked by mages. Since we are outcasts, we don't have unlimited access to supplies. If I don't sneak into town myself, then my people would starve because they would be shunned by the werewolves. In this kingdom, if one shifts for the first time and ends up being a Lycan, they are deemed as monsters. Freaks of nature. They are immediately banished and banned from entering the kingdom. It was the same with me too. When I turned into a Lycan, my father, who was the Alpha King, confided in his Beta, Ernard Thorison. Little did he know he would stab him in the back and grab his throne. No one would accept a Lycan Prince, so I fled before Ernard could kill me. That was after enduring years of torture in one of
Tatiana. My eyes hurt. I can hardly open them. It seems I had cried myself to sleep last night. The loud growl of my stomach indicates how I had slept on an empty stomach too. It seems no one thought to bring me anything to eat. Not that it surprises me, I’m just a slave here. The pain in my sides tells me I had slept on the cold, hard ground and I'm still clad in my inner garments that are now dry. Looking around, I find the place empty with Roy's bed still as neat as it was yesterday. So he didn't come back… I frown as I force myself to get up. Why would that bother me? As I adjust to the brightness seeping through from the sun outside, memories of what happened yesterday flow through my mind with so much force that I almost have a splitting headache. I reach up my hand to touch my face, and my heart sinks when I feel the ridges from the scars given to me by that strange woman. So it wasn't a dream. I had hoped it was. How do I go on with this face? How do I even
Roy. I didn't go back to my tent last night. Timber kept growling in my head and I didn't have full confidence that he wouldn't take over while I was asleep and claim Tatiana as his. It seems the big bad Lycan was tired of fucking around and finally wanted to settle down. But with the wrong person. The Princess… as tempting as she is… she's off limits. So I took over guard duty and stayed awake the whole night, trying to prevent my Lycan from taking over. Simone wanted me to stay in her room but I declined. I wasn't a fool. I knew she wanted us to be more than friends. But… my Lycan wouldn't mark just anyone. If I force it he might end up ripping her head off. I knew she had an unhinged beast due to her terrible past so I understood that she lost control but I knew she had also purposefully gone to see Tatiana. Otherwise, how would she explain the wolfsbane she had in her claws? Tatiana was now scarred and I know I brought her here to make her suffer but not that kind of suff
Tatiana. "Then rest in peace in advance." His words keep swirling in my mind and I can't help the anger bubbling up within my chest. I should have said more. When he insulted me and called me a slut, I should have stood up to him and told him off. He may be a King out here but I'm the future Queen of the whole kingdom. He has no right to treat me with so much contempt. It's not like I had planned to seduce him. If not for my wolf, I wouldn't have made a fool out of myself like that. The question I have is why is she behaving like this? Before now, she hadn't made herself known to me apart from yesterday and I don't even know her name. I feel like she's not even the one. It feels like there is something else inside me. Something that doesn't care about the rules and I'm afraid of what it may make me do. A thought flashes through my mind and I frown. I hope I'm not possessed by something because I'm sure the next time I behave like that in front of Roy, he will take what
Tatiana. "Simone, we have people who clean, and they get paid for it. Don't create trouble," Elyn says sternly, standing in front of me and I step back like a coward. If it was before when I didn't have scars on my face, I would have stood up for myself but right now, all I can do is lower my head in front of all these people watching us. "Well, I want this slave to do it for me. She didn't come here for luxury." "She's the Alpha's slave. No one else can order her around–" "I'm the Alpha's future Luna so I can order her around. Isn't that so?" Simone directs the question to the small crowd that had come to watch. "Yes, you can. She's a slave anyway. Let her do her job!" "Make her pay!" "Make her pay!" My heart sinks to my feet as people chant for Simone to do what she wants with me. "Stop this!" Elyn says but I tug on her shirt and she looks back at me. I don't want her to get on Simone's bad side. "It’s ok. I can do this," I whisper but she looks at me worriedly
Roy. Timber has really given me hell the past few days that I feel like my head is about to be split into two. I don't get his obsession with the Princess. It's not like she can ever be our mate. Lycans don't have mates. That's just how the Goddess made us. He kept trying to come to the surface, urging me to run back to the pack but I stopped him from coming forward. It was a lot of work and I made sure I didn't sleep a wink otherwise he would have taken advantage of my unconsciousness to go back to the princess. Being away from her didn't help at all. Instead, it made me crave her more. It's crazy. This is someone I barely know but I miss her so fucking much yet I am very aware of who she is. Whose daughter she is and what it would mean if I ever got involved with her. But despite knowing this, I regret leaving her alone. Is she ok? Did Elyn look out for her these past few days? I don't know why but I'm feeling restless. It feels like there’s something wrong but I can’t p
Tatiana. Roy continues to hold me in his arms as I calm down. I still can’t believe he’s here with me and I'm alive. It turns out he pulled me back from the brink of death. The way he’s holding me protectively makes me feel safe. But I know better. I shouldn’t relax and feel comfortable when he can turn his back on me at any moment and let his people do as they wish to me. I can’t help but wonder if he’s not repulsed by my new appearance. After all, my skin looks like a monkey’s butt now. When these thoughts flash through my head, I am filled with apprehension as I wonder what he thinks about me now. However, the princess in me comes out and I end up hitting his chest and screaming at him, forgetting where I am and who I am to him. To my surprise, he holds me closer and apologises. Something that shocks me completely because he doesn’t look like the apologising type. Suddenly, I feel the aura around him change when he mentions my father. It becomes dark and dangerous as a
Roy. Stepping into my tent, I frown when I can’t smell lilies anywhere. Tatiana’s scent is faint and so is Beast’s. ‘Where is she?’ I ask Elyn through the mindlink as I pour myself a glass of water to quench my thirst. I had a talk with Simone and told her to take care of the chores for two months as punishment. It was the only punishment I thought would work with her since she’s proud and hates doing anything like chores. If wolfsbane could affect Lycans, I would have told her to douse herself just like she did to the Princess but unfortunately, wolfsbane does nothing to us. I also told her to apologise to the Princess and ask for forgiveness. What she did was really cruel. I'm starting to wonder if I really know Simone that well. Or maybe she's always been like this and I didn't notice until now? Letting out a small grunt, I walk out and suddenly hear low growls coming from somewhere deeper in the woods. The sound is faint but I have good hearing. It is coming from the oth
