The Lycan's Surrogate Prologue
The sun sparkled through the trees like diamonds as Mom’s voice filled the car, barely on key. She was singing along with the radio, one of my favorite songs. While my mother was beautiful and spoke eloquently, she had a terrible singing voice, though she never let that stop her. Dad looked over at her, his fingers lacing with hers and a smile on his face. Even at eight years old, I could see the enormous amount of love he felt for her. Of course, they were mates and that’s what it meant to be a mate. Even at eight, I dreamed of having that one day. However, that changed in a flash. My father suddenly let go of my mother, alarm now filling his expression as he struggled with the car. Mom and dad began yelling and shouting. I didn’t understand what was going on, but I heard Dad say, “the brakes aren’t working.” Mom looked back at me. “Sheila, honey, put -” Suddenly, the car jerked to the side and the car fell off the small cliff to my left. The world became a kaleidoscope of colo
The Lycan's Surrogate Chapter 1
***trigger warning suicide***“Sheila,” I heard someone shout from outside. There was only one person who could be shouting my name. My ‘family’ usually called me ‘girl’ or ‘slave’ unless we were in public or had company at home.I looked up at the small window above the basement , I saw Nancy waving at me. I found a pole and tried to push the window open a crack. “What are you doing here?”“Wow, hi Shelia. Nice to see you,” she said, her tone dripping with sarcasm. I rolled my eyes as I shook my head. “You know I’m always happy to see you, but aren’t you supposed to be on laundry duty now. And you know I was grounded.”“Yeah, but the girls said they’d cover for me. The alpha will never know since he’s so busy with Fiona’s coming of age party.”Right. It had been a year to the day that Nancy and I first met. It had been the best year of my life after the death of my parents. “That’s true. Fiona’s been the coming of age version of a bridezilla.” Fiona was always over the top, but with
The Lycan's Surrogate Chapter 2
The next two months were some of the worst in my life. Even after she was gone, people, especially Fiona, laughed at Nancy and called her weak and pathetic. Kevin, the one responsible for her pain, became a recluse and never left the house. He wasn’t even here for Fiona’s eighteenth birthday party.My uncle had invited all our pack's upper hierarchy, but also several other pack leaders hoping that Fiona would find her mate in another alpha. If the rumors are true, Uncle Aaron even invited this legendary Lycan I’ve heard some whisper about. He was supposed to be incredibly rich, stern, decisive, and ruthless when the time called for it. I didn’t really care who he invited or what happened. Nothing mattered anymore. No one would care about an omega being gone, except me. They may even laugh at her weakness, but she meant the light for my life, now, I could only see the dark side. Dressed in a white shirt, black vest, and pants as all the other slaves, I stood along the west wall with
The Lycan's Surrogate Chapter 3
***trigger warning sexual assault***I tried to figure out whether I was overthinking, so I moved to some different corner. But to my surprise, no matter where I moved in the room, the Lycan still watched me. His dark eyes burned into my skin like a brand, making me feel like the rabbit just before the wolf captured it between its fangs.The Lycan spoke to someone at his side. A smaller, but broader man with a friendly face despite the serious expression he wore. It seemed like they were friends. His eyes met mine, but they didn’t hold the same power as the lycan’s did. However, the weight of both their gazes on me was too much, and I looked down at my hands as I tried to stay busy.I glanced up and saw Fiona staring dumbfounded at the Lycan, her eyes turning to look at me, then back at him, before finally settling her eyes on me, her eyebrows pulled together in a frown while she clenched her fists by her side.I turned around and stepped in the corner, wishing Fiona would forget I ev
The Lycan's Surrogate Chapter 4
***trigger warning sexual assault*** I tried to fight against Craig, hitting him with my fists as I shouted at him to stop. My body burned, and all my garbled thoughts were like shards of glass inside my brain. Nothing I said or did seemed to matter to Craig as he pulled at my clothing. The look in his eyes was hungry and mean as he insisted once more I “Stop fighting me and pretending like you don’t like this. I know you want it!” “No,” I insisted, but his mouth fell again on mine in a bruising crash that filled my mouth with the metallic tang of blood. Just as Craig struggled to undo my pants, there was a loud crash and suddenly Craig was gone. Knowing I couldn’t be that lucky, I scrambled back to a half sitting position. My eyes widened in a gasp. The lycan held Craig against the wall by his neck. He growled something at Craig, but it was too quiet for me to hear. Nor did I hear Craig’s response, but the Lycan pulled back his fist and punched him in the stomach then in the fac

I’m not sure what happened next. All I could focus on was the lycan’s cool touch against my burning skin. “It’s going to be okay,” he told me in a soft, comforting tone. He was again cradling me in his arms. A moment later, he laid me down on a bed. The sheets were soft and cool against my heated skin. The slave part of me wanted to protest against him putting me here. I’d ruin these nice sheets with all my sweat. Yet, I didn’t have the strength to utter a word. The lycan took my face in his hands, tilting it so I would look him in the eyes. “This is the only way. I’m sorry. Sex is the only way to we can quickly burn these drugs out of your system safely.”My eyes widened. Did he just say… My mouth was dry and it was hard to swallow. Did this mean that we were going to… He’d want that from me? But I was no one and I was cute on a good day maybe… Yet as his dark eyes held me, I didn’t miss the spark of desire in them. Once more, I swallowed and gave him a small nod.His face lowered
The Lycan's Surrogate Chapter 6
Everyone’s eyes were on me, and I hugged myself under the immense weight of it. “Why would the Lycan invite you to lunch,” Fiona demanded, her eyes blazing. The word ‘you’ dripped with disdain. “I…” I started. I glanced over at Fiona. She was beyond furious. I didn’t want to upset her even more than she already was. And the lycan? Did he want everyone to know what happened? If I said too much it might make him angry at me too. He seemed as capable, if not more, of violence and pain as Fiona. “I…” I started again, but still had no idea what to say.The Lycan’s man cleared his throat. “Why the lycan wants to see someone is none of your concern,” he told Fiona then turned his attention to my uncle. “After meeting Miss Shelia last night, he’s become interested in her.” Now he moved his eyes to Fiona then back to my uncle. “Is that a problem for you? Should I tell him you are refusing to allow Miss Sheila to join him?”My uncle paled and his eyes widened. “No. No, of course not. If the l
The Lycan's Surrogate Chapter 7
I sat down on a couch identical to the one the Lycan sat on that was opposite his. Out of curiosity, I tried to follow the conversation with the Llycan and the other person, but soon I found myself lost in terms and subjects I didn’t even begin to understand. I looked down at my lap and the room around me. Why had the Lycan called me? Was he really mad about last night? Perhaps, he wants to make sure I don’t tell anyone. God, I hope he didn’t banish me from the tribe. As much as I dreamed of escaping my family, a lone wolf without a tribe is basically a death sentence.My heart started to race at that thought. What was I going to do? I glanced over at the Lycan. He stared at the laptop, his gaze never once looking away. How long was that meeting going to take? It was torture sitting here and waiting to find out just how much trouble I was going to be in.I drummed my fingers on the tops of my thighs, trying to distract myself from my ever darkening thoughts. I didn’t see a clock, but
