Taken By The Lycan King One: The Development Plan
NADINE SINGH"Congratulations, Ms. Singh, the project has been approved."I stared at Dominic, the director of my department, not believing my ears. I just stood there like a statute, unmoving."Come on, Nadine," Dominic chuckled as he moved closer to me, "are you in that much shock? You're not even responding."Around me, I could hear the rest of the teammates hollering and screaming and clapping in excitement while I just remained frozen.What? The project has been approved? That was my aim; that was the end game, I've prayed for this, cried for this, all the sleepless nights of planning and planning and sketching and coming up with the modern city plan that the forest at the outskirts of the town was going to convert to, all the rejections and everything and finally, the project has been approved? The project has finally been approved? God! It felt like a dream and that was why I wasn't shouting or bringing down the roof right now because what if I start screaming in excitement
Taken By The Lycan King Two: Eden City
KAI CRUZI blocked out all the noises in the council as the members started making noises and screaming at each other like the errant barbarians that they are. Within me, my wolf was seething, begging to let lose and put all these people in their places but I had to refrain from him, had to refrain myself because if there's one thing I've learned since I took the mantle of power when my father died, it was that violence was never the way. And I never resort to violence unless it's absolutely necessary. Even though each time there was a council meeting, I was always almost forced to take back my words."Can we all keep quiet?" I asked-commanded in a very quiet voice and almost immediately, all the noise in the room ceased. Well, except for one unfortunate man. "Alpha, I don't think this is the time for you to be telling us to keep quiet," he had the audacity to look into my eyes as he said the words that could as well spell out his doom, "our existence is at stake here so you don'
Taken By The Lycan King Three: Kidnapped
NADINEFor the first time in forever, Dominic allowed us to leave work early but that was only because he wanted us to go out and celebrate. And of course, the feat was no small one and we really deserved to celebrate it. We've been at it for five good years and several rejections, modifications, and tears after, we finally got the approval to go ahead. We finally got the yes! So really, we needed to celebrate it. We came to a bar and got a round table and in no time, my teammates were in varying degrees of drunkness, even Dominic. I was the only one that refused to drink. "So you're really not going to drink even a cup?" Tania inquired with a slur in her voice and her shaky hands holding a half-empty glass of beer."Yes," I smiled at her as I picked at the gizzard I was eating. "But why?""Because I drove here and I have to drive myself back home.""But you can always call a designated driver!" she challenged, her voice rising. That was one thing about Tania, she always get an
Taken By The Lycan King Four: Taken By Him
NADINEI could feel warmth all around me, the bed was so soft that I found myself snuggling and wanting to disappear into it. It was that soft. The pillows were comfy too and I sighed at how comfortable it was as I pulled it closer to myself. This was the kind of bedding that'd make one wish they could sleep forever and that's what I wanted at the moment. But work... I just got the approval for my lifelong project. My eyes popped open immediately after that thought came to my mind and I stood up with a start. Why did I have to sleep in late when I should have been the first person to get to work?I started to make a beeline for the bathroom only to stop dead in my tracks as I looked around the unfamiliar bedroom. It wasn't my room. I wasn't in my room. Panic surged through my body as the events of last night came flooding into my mind. The approval, the team hang out, the rain, the highway, my car getting spoilt, and the stranger that had stopped to help me. But it wasn't to
Taken By The Lycan King 5: Welcome to a Werewolf world
NADINEI couldn't stop laughing. Was I that excited about the prospect of Eden City becoming a reality that I was really dreaming about it? Because this must be a dream. I was dreaming about Eden City and this ridiculously hot male because I'd been starved of men and the subconscious part of my brain was reminding me of what I was missing in my dream.He was still looking at me with that piercing eyes of his that almost seemed like he was undressing my soul with his eyes and my laughter subconsciously trailed off as I straightened up. "So... Urhmm, we're in Eden City, right?" I asked him when he obviously wasn't sharing in my humor because he wasn't smiling, just looking at me blankly."Yeah."Another laughter bubbled up my throat and I had to bite my lower lip to stop the laughter from deepening. "So, we're in a city that's not on the map, a city that doesn't even exist yet, a city that just exists in my head and on paper."With that, a muscle ticked in his jaw, and an expression
Taken By The Lycan King 6: Unexpected News
KAIA day later, I was in the council of elders again.They've been asking for my presence and calling for a meeting since I brought Nadine to Eden City but things had to be done properly. I couldn't just attend to them when I was yet to explain to Nadine what she was doing in Eden City.And God! That explanation had unfolded in a way I wasn't expecting it to at all. I know it was going to be ridiculous, telling her about the werewolf world that'd cease to exist if her project was commissioned but saying it out loud and watching all the expressions on her face had made it much more ridiculous. I knew she was going to believe me that easily and the plan was to let her slowly come to terms with it but those kids just happened to be shifting right there on the street in broad daylight and as if seeing them was not enough, I was just stupid enough to let my anger get my claws out and changed my eyes color and the minute she saw that, she paled completely before she took a step back from
Taken By The Lycan King 7: She’s my Mate
KAIAs expected, all of them fell quiet and they all turned to me with expressions full of disbelief. Even Levi sat up straighter as he looked at me with an expression I couldn't decipher. "What do you mean she's your mate?" Denis asked, his tone incredulous. "Exactly what it means, she's my mate, my fated one, the one I've been searching for all these years."There were collective gasps and their expressions mirrored shock and disbelief. Those two were an understatement to what I felt when I discovered that she was my mate. It was the least expected thing, something I never thought could be possible but the minute I stepped out of my hiding under the rain, the first thing that assaulted my nose was the divine and heavenly scent that was coming from her. I knew it was impossible for someone to smell that good alone and my wolf senses immediately picked up the fact that she might be our mate. Everything about her felt magical and divine and out of this world that I could see lit
Taken By The Lycan King 8: Mama Teresa
KAIThe first place I showed up when I got back home was in Nadine's room and she was still out with the physician sitting on a chair in her room. I then went to the kitchen where Mama Teresa was cooking one of her delicious recipes to drink water. "The council must have been very happy," she said softly as I drowned a cup of water. "Happy is an understatement to what they felt when they realized that finally, there's a way out of the impending doom.""Yeah, I can imagine, after all these years, the Moon Goddess finally answered our prayers."After all these years indeed! Since the curse and prophecy were revealed to me after my eighteenth birthday by Father and the rest of the council, I initially thought it was ridiculous because we were in a modern world and mates were a thing of the past but as I grew older, I realized how dire the situation was. The existence of the entire werewolf race was solely dependent on if I found my mate. As the 21st generation of the Alpha bloodline
