Mated to the Lycan King Chapter 18: Courage
The world was spinning, my head felt like it was being hit with a hammer and my body and skin ached under the weight of my clothing. “I fucking hate myself!” I sighed as I opened up my eyes, only to be overwhelmed by the light in the room. It didn’t take me long to become overwhelmed by the room itself. Gold walls upon which neat irises where painted, a large, wooden bookshelf in the corner, white rugs and that dreaded light blue sofa. And as my terror-filled eyes continued to scan the room, the memories of the prior night began to flood into my mind. I was beyond embarrassed, beyond annoyed with myself and needed to leave urgently. The last thing I needed was for the owner of the room to- “Hey.” Too late. Nicholas entered the room with a tray in hand, atop which stood a mug of coffee, a plate of eggs and toast. Immediately my stomach groaned at the glorious smell. He set the tray down on the bedside table and then sat down on the edge of the bed before glancing down at me, trying
Mated to the Lycan King Chapter 19: Wolfsbane
While Nicholas was out, I decided to finally get out of the house as well, this time, to a place much further than the gardens. Dante had invited me out for the day to apologise for the previous night. Although Nicholas was hesitant to have me galivanting around without him, Dante suggested that Lovita and Floran come along with us. Their faces were as stoic as always and so I didn’t know whether they themselves were fond of the idea of babysitting me.“So, we’re definitely losing Lovita and Floran,” Dante said in a hushed tone. He’d taken me to the marketplace, and it was much larger than I’d ever anticipated. There were tons and tons of stalls. They were filled with fruit, food, trinkets, jewellery, gadgets and clothing. People filled the crowded streets and dirt paths, all huddling around all of the stalls. It was easy to see how we’d lose Lovita and Floran, I just didn’t understand why.“Where are we going without them?” I asked, matching his hushed tone.“You do trust me, don’t y
Mated to the Lycan King Chapter 20: Sparrow
Kiyan’s eyes widened in urgency, and he quickly grabbed me and placed his hand over my mouth before whispering in my ear, “Sparrow.” What the hell was he on about? I bit at the palm of his hand, and he immediately let me go after mumbling a cuss. “What the fuck did you do that for!” he whispered. It was then that we were finally joined by Dante. Kiyan immediately rolled his eyes at him. “The fuck are you doing here Falcon?” Falcon? “Woah Sparrow, calm down. I was just showing my friend here one of our meetings. Don’t get your panties in a twist okay?” So, they were using codenames. Kiyan looked beyond furious, and I could see him clenching a fist. I was brought back to that day with Stacey. But unlike the Stacey incident, he took in a long, deep breath and then gazed around before lowering his voice. “You’re a fucking idiot. How could you bring Ariya here?” Dante raised a brown and then folded his arms against his chest. “So you know her and who she is to him.” Kiyan’s eyes wid
Mated to the Lycan King Chapter 21: The mate
Jasper opened the doors for us the moment we got home and the moment he saw me, he had an almost relieved look on his face. He expressed his relief before enthusiastically attempting to announce our arrival. But I urged Jasper to stay silent and I advised Dante not to join us. He was reluctant at first, but I tried to rationalise it to him. I’d seen the way Nicholas had reacted to my bruised knuckles the first time I had arrived. There was no doubt that he’d end Dante within a second, no questions asked. And so, after we had decided not to tell Nicholas anything regarding Wolfsbane or Kiyan and Dante’s involvement in the organisation, he left. It didn’t take long for Nicholas to appear into the foyer. He had his car keys in his hand and a determined look in his eyes. But the moment he saw me, he paused briefly and almost instinctively tried to wear that calm mask again. It vanished almost as soon as he forced its appearance. His eyebrows then furrowed deeply, and he came right towards
Mated to the Lycan King Chapter 22: Lip service
Kiyan I barely made it through the door of the grand entrance before my sister grabbed my arm and tugged at it hard, stopping me from moving any further. I turned towards her, enraged beyond anything I’d ever felt, and filled with more hatred than I’d ever known. But I could see that in her eyes, Ariya couldn’t bear to see me this way. She was sad and angry, and she looked at me as though I were some sort of stranger to her. But there was also a look of desperation on her face and her eyes were pleading with me to stay, not to leave again. “So, what, you’re just going to leave? Angry and hateful and blaming everyone else. Just like how you left me and Ophelia that day.” I was right. Her mind was stuck on that day, the day I’d left. But just like then, I couldn’t go back on my words or way of thinking. I’d come too far, and my hatred had grown too powerful. So, I shrugged her hand off of me and took a step away from her before saying, “Ophelia? You expect me to be grateful to someo
Mated to the Lycan King Chapter 23: Want
“Ariya, are you sure that you’re okay? Your hands are shaking!” With that, Nicholas stood up from his seat and began to walk across the living room where I was seated. He knelt down in front of me and took my shivering hands in his warm ones and gently rubbed at them.I looked down at him nervously and tried to muster up a smile.“I’m okay, just a little shaky. I haven’t eaten in a while, that’s probably why.”Although I was wolfishly hungry, that was only partly the truth. Theodore had overheard the entire conversation with Kiyan just now, and I was afraid that he would tell his brother everything. My fear only increased the moment Theodore’s footsteps were heard through the house and I began to start making up a few lies and excuses in my head.But the moment Theodore entered the room and saw me, his eyes softened, and he winked at me reassuringly. Kiyan’s secret would be safe with him.“Your brother is really something! I’m glad that this never happened,” he said with a sad tone to
Mated to the Lycan King Chapter 24: Dangerous desire
Nicholas leaned down, his hot breath fanning against my ear, “I can smell how much you want me Airya…” The moment he said it, I shivered and closed my thighs together, completely enraptured by his words and just how true they were. “Funny thing is,” he then placed a hot, open-mouthed kiss against the skin of my neck, “I want you just as much.” And with that he grabbed me even closer, placing his lips on mine in a wet, passionate frenzy, and carried me over towards the bed before laying me down carefully. His lips never left mine, not even when he climbed on top of me and pinned my hands to the bed. Every inch of my body revelled in his touch, and I couldn’t get enough of the feeling of his warm lips against mine. His lips then moved down to my neck where they sucked forcefully at my soft flesh and occasionally he’d bite and nibble. My mouth was agape and heavy pants escaped my parted lips. It felt so heavenly that my legs slid across the bedsheets and pulled up, so my knees were off
Mated to the Lycan King Chapter 25: Frostbite
As I followed Melissa down the dark, quiet hallway, my mind filled the solemn silence, flooding with so many thoughts that I could barely keep up with them. Yesterday when I’d seen Dante, he was very much alive and well, and so I wondered what had happened between then and now to change that. I’d admit that we hadn’t parted on the best of terms, but Dante was still a good friend of mine. He’d been my first friend here and in him, I saw parts of myself too. Although we sometimes did not see eye-to-eye, I felt as though he truly understood me. And so, the idea of him being gone from my life, and gone from this house was heart shattering. And with every step closer to his room, I could feel my chest tighten and a sore lump begin to form at the back of my throat as the gravity of his loss began to crash down on my shoulders.Dante stayed with the rest of the staff members, in a separate section of Nicholas’ home which surprisingly still matched the grandness of the rest of the place.
