The lycan king’s regret
Zareth Vale's life was a life of rejection: rejected by her father, ridiculed for being wolfless, but loved only by her sister who was later to the most powerful Lycan King in the land.
There was one problem, however.
Before the wedding…
Zareth had already spent a sinful night in his bed.
And now she’s carrying his child.
Zareth refuses to ruin her sister's happiness, and vows to take the secret to her grave. However, on a sacred heir ritual, the power of the Lycan King recognizes her unborn baby, rather than his Luna's, which reveals a betrayal that tears the kingdom apart.
Soon she was hated by the palace, falsely accused for killing the princess' wolf, and rejected by the one who marked her, Zareth loses everything, including her baby.
However, when the facts are revealed, it could be too late.
Because the mate the lycan king had cast away only has thirty days left to live.

Chapter: THE COUNCIL'S VERDICTKaelors POVThey had to help me into the council chamber.I hated that than almost anything else that had happened to me in the last month and considering the last month that was saying something.The time I had walked through these doors I had been a king people feared.Today I was a king trying hard not to stumble over the threshold.The irony was not lost on me.My legs held, barely with a hand from James, on one side and a cane I refused to admit I needed on the other.My wolf when I reached for him answered slower than he ever had in my life. A pulse where there used to be a roar.My wolf murmured "I am still here."I said "Not very convincingly."My wolf said "I gave away most of the parts."I almost laughed.The councilman said, "A king who cannot stand on his own cannot be trusted to lead the kingdom through times." He was not being mean just honest. "This is not a punishment, Your Majesty. It is common sense."People in the room started talking"Thornwood is getting ready for

Chapter: WHAT ZARETH WOKE UP TO Zareths POV I woke up before dawn feeling something I had not felt in weeks. Strength, real and solid running through my limbs that had spent a month forgetting how to hold their own weight. I sat up without help for the time since the severance. I breathed without it catching through. Somewhere inside me my wolf stretched, uncertain testing the feeling like she did not quite trust it either. My wolf whispered "We are stronger." That was the first thing that frightened me. Because wolves do not simply recover from dying. I should have been relieved. I was, for the length of time it took me to notice that the chair Kaelor had been sleeping in beside my bed every night for two weeks was empty and had clearly been empty for hours. Kaelors blanket was folded. The cup of tea James had bullied Kaelor into drinking the night before sat untouched on the table. Something in my chest went cold. I found Mae first in the hallway her face already wrecked with tears she was not bother

Chapter: WHAT A KING GIVES UP Kaelors point of view I did not tell Zareth the rest of it that night. I could not. I had practiced the words a hundred times in my head. Every time I said them it ended the same way. With Zareth telling me not to do the one thing I had already decided to do. She had spent months fighting to survive. The least I could do was make sure she did not have to spend whatever time she had left fighting me Instead I sat beside her bed until she fell asleep listening to her breathing remembering the sound. You keep staring at me like I'm about to disappear she said sometime around midnight. You threatened to once I said. A sleepy smile came to her face. Still might she said. That does not surprise me I said. It was the conversation we had before I did something unforgivable. Mae found me packing the things two nights later. Herbs and old iron and a blade I had sharpened that morning. The look on her face told me she had known this was coming since the library. I knew it she said

Chapter: TWENTY-SEVEN DAYS I was getting better. It was slow and not always steady. I was getting better. I could sit up by myself mornings. I could walk to the garden with Sabriel some afternoons. We both pretended that the walk was not hard for us. It was. My hands did not shake much as they used to. I did not faint every time I stood up. Some mornings I woke up before the sun. Forgot that my life was going to end soon. I forgot for a few seconds but it was nice. The healers did not look at me with pity anymore. That was somehow worse than the pity. Sabriel said "You are doing better." I was drinking tea. I could keep it down. She said "Whatever he is doing it is working." I said "He is not doing anything. He is just sitting near me. Being annoying." Sabriel said "That is all it takes I guess." She said it in a way like she was happy about it. She stirred her tea. Said "You should have seen him when the healers said you had gained weight." I said "What?" She said "He was happier than he wa

The servants quickly found something to do they did not want to be around when Mae was angry."He is not staying in this house " Mae said.I tried to sit up. It was a bad idea. My body hurt over and I was still very sick."Please stop yelling " I said to Mae. "I do not want to die with all this noise around me."Mae said "Do not joke about that."I said " stop shouting. We can not both be upset at the time."Mae said "Do not try to calm me down Zar.

He was speaking in an careful tone like he was trying not to make anyone angry."I am not asking for forgiveness " Kaelor said. "I just want to be close enough to her so she can survive
