The Ugly Lycan Queen

The Ugly Lycan Queen

My mate cut my face apart and threw me off a cliff. My sister watched and smiled. Together, they took everything from me. My throne. My life. My place beside the Lycan King of Warhill. The river was supposed to be my grave. But the Goddess had other plans. Now I am back in Nymore, hidden behind scars that make even my own people look away. My mate has his heir. My sister has my crown. For now. Because the woman they pushed into that river is gone. And the one who crawled out of it has nothing left to lose. Not her beauty. Not her reputation. Not even her soul. They wanted me dead. They should have made sure I stayed that way. - - - - Betrayed by the Lycan King she once loved and the sister she trusted, Reine should have died in the river they threw her into. Instead, she awakens in her homeland of Nymore with a gift from the Goddess and a burning desire for revenge. As she struggles to accept the scars that now cover her face, Reine discovers a mysterious new power she awakened with--a power that could change the fate of kingdoms. With her loyal brother at her side and an unlikely ally in a frail human servant named Eren, Reine begins plotting the downfall of everyone who helped destroy her life. But as enemies gather and secrets come to light, Reine must decide how much of herself she is willing to sacrifice for revenge. And whether the price is worth paying.

Chapter: CHAPTER 11 - ABILITIES
--REINE--I took a cautious step closer to him, my gaze fixed on his hand."Has this happened before?" I asked softly.Eren stared down at me, his expression troubled."No."I met his gaze."Can you do it again?"He shook his head. "I didn't do it, Reine. I think it was just light or something.""Light?" I repeated incredulously. "Eren, I saw a flame.""Maybe it was a reflection.""Of what? The moon?"He didn't answer.I glanced at his hand again."Let me see.""Reine, it's nothing." He stepped back."Then you won't mind," I stated.Before he could protest, I reached for his hand and took it in mine."Ah!" I gasped, immediately letting go.His skin was warm.Far too warm.It felt as though he'd been holding his hand over a burning fire."Eren, you're burning up!" I whispered.He stared at his fingers, his face growing pale."I...""Are you feeling alright? Should I call the healer?""No!" he exclaimed.I flinched at his sudden outburst.He noticed."I'm sorry," he said quickly. "I--I

Chapter: CHAPTER 10 - FLAME
--REINE--I shifted uncomfortably in my bed, the wounds on my face aching dully.But the pain wasn't what was keeping me up.It was the million thoughts racing through my mind, the ones I couldn't get to quiet down.Hadn't I been tested enough already?How were there still people, in my own homeland, in my own kingdom, who sought to hurt me?I sighed, kicking the blanket off my legs.There was no point in lying here any longer.Maybe a walk through the gardens would help clear my head.I slipped out of bed, pulled a shawl over my nightgown and covered my face with my veil.Then I quietly opened the door, and nearly jumped out of my skin."Eren!" I hissed, scowling.He stood just outside, leaning against the opposite wall.At the sound of my voice, he straightened immediately."Reine? Is everything alright?"I pressed a hand against my chest."What are you doing here? It's the middle of the night!"He glanced towards the corridor. "I was keeping watch.""Outside my bedroom?""Yes."I fr

Chapter: CHAPTER 9 - SOMETHING WAS WRONG
--REINE--The palace healer gently removed the bandages from my face to re-examine my wounds.I sat stiffly on the bed, my hands gripping its edges.Eren, Cain and Mother stood a short distance away. Eren kept his gaze lowered, while Mother watched me with concern.But Cain was stiffer than usual.He wouldn't meet my eyes."What is it, Cain?" I asked.His gaze shot to mine. "What?""Something happened. Tell me."The last bandage came off, and Mother turned away, wrapping her arms around herself.I sighed. "You can go, Mother. You don't have to be here every time.""I want to," she replied, her voice breaking."I know. But you don't have to force yourself. I know I'm hideous, and I know how much it hurts you to see me like this."She broke into a sob and hurried outside.I glanced at Eren, and he immediately followed her.Somehow, he always understood what I needed without being told.I turned towards Cain."Tell me, brother. Please."He sighed and sat beside me."Karlos's accusation o

Chapter: CHAPTER 8 - BATTLE
--REINE--My heart stopped beating for a moment there.I had expected them to reject me. To ask questions or accuse me of being who Karlos said I was: a traitor.But I didn't think they'd directly ask me to remove my veil.My hand rose to it, but stopped the moment it came into contact with the fabric.They wanted to see me.My scarred cheek burned like Karlos's claws were tearing through it all over again.The mirror flashed through my mind.Twisted red skin.My crooked mouth.The missing eyebrow.No.Cain took my wrist and dropped my hand."Absolutely not," he snapped.The Council head looked at him. "Your Highness, surely you understand our concern.""I understand that my sister was nearly murdered and you are demanding that she display her wounds for your satisfaction.""All we seek is proof.""You have your proof! She's standing right in front of you!""Behind a veil."Cain stepped forward. "Watch your mouth--""Cain."My voice came out quieter than I intended.He immediately look

Chapter: CHAPTER 7 - COUNCIL
--REINE--I stood outside the grand hall with my heart in my mouth.Their voices carried outside, and although they were all talking at once, I could separate some of them and hear what they were saying."She cannot be alive. King Karlos already declared she's been executed.""Princess Emerald is taking her place. Why would she do that if her sister was alive?""She failed to produce an heir in two years. If she had, she would be secure in her position."I swallowed hard, my fists balling at my sides.There were people blaming me for something I had no control over.Like I deliberately chose to not give birth."Even if she's alive, we can't let her be queen of Nymore again."My throat tightened at that.This was going to be much harder than I expected.I took a deep breath and closed my eyes, preparing myself to face them all.Someone cleared their throat behind me."Are you alright?" he asked gently.I wanted to shake my head.I wanted to turn around and rush back upstairs."You don't

Chapter: CHAPTER 6 - ALIVE
--REINE--"Are you ready, Reine of Nymore?" a distant, distorted voice questioned.I glanced around to find the source, but there was only light."Ready for what?" I asked."To pay..."I awoke with a gasp and sat up, breathing hard.My eyes drew to the window in my bedroom. Little light seeped in. It was still mostly dark outside. "Anyone?" I called, my throat dry like sand.There was a gentle knock on my door. "Your Majesty," Eren's voice called. "I'm here."My eyebrows pulled closer.Why was he standing outside? This wasn't his job."Come in," I still said, grabbing the veil from my side table and putting it on.He'd seen my disfigured face already, but I didn't want to show it to him again and again. Especially not at this hour. I looked like a nightmarish creature.The thought ached in my chest until he quietly stepped inside and bowed."Why are you here?" I asked him, turning my face away. "You're my lady-in-waiting?"Eren chuckled, glancing at me.I stiffened slightly."I could
