Chapter: EPILOGUEEPILOGUEDamon filled Natasha with wrong information about who she was and why Lucien had brought her to the Kingdom. Fuelled by anger, Natasha trains for months as she plans to take down Lucien.The plan is set in motion, and just like a bomb set on a timer, everything around Lucien begins to fall apart, one after the other.To avenge Michelle’s death, Louis Draven (Draven SNR) kidnaps Natasha and tries to kill her. This disrupts Michelle’s grand plan, but she immediately comes up with a new plan.Lucien arrives to save Natasha. But soon, everyone realises they were just a pawn in a bigger play. Michelle reveals herself, knowing that no one else was going to leave that warehouse alive.“The Dravens should have known that they were playing a dangerous game when they mounted the throne that was meant for my lineage.” Michelle started.It was a case that could be traced back to ancestors, and Michelle had carefully planned for years to turn the Dravens against themselves.And now, she ha

Chapter: 178: Who is he?Natasha’s POV“We really shouldn’t be doing this,” he said the moment I reached him.I kept walking. “You didn’t drag me out here to scold me.”He followed, steps echoing. “I dragged you out here because I’ve been trying to tell you this for the past month, but you just wouldn’t hear it.”“I heard you,” I said. “I just didn’t believe you.”“That’s because Lucien trained you not to.”I stopped, then turned slowly.“Be careful.”“I am being careful,” Damon snapped. “With you. With the truth. With the fact that if I don’t say this now, I may not get another chance.”I studied his face.“You think Lucien brainwashed me,” I said flatly.“I know he did,” Damon replied.“What do you mean?” I asked as we moved further into the dark stairwell.“You asked me once,” Damon continued, “why Korah changed so fast. Why did she give up fighting?My chest tightened.“You said grief,” I replied.“That’s what you were led to believe,” Damon said. “It wasn’t grief. It was suppression.”The stairs ended at

Chapter: 177: RebellionLucien’s POVI tried to tell myself it wasn’t about me.But the truth didn’t care what I told myself.Every line she presented to the Elders felt like an indictment. Every woman she spoke for sounded like an echo of her. And every silence she left where my name should have been was louder than any accusation ever could.She didn’t need to say Lucien.I heard it anyway.The Women who reasonated with her in the Kingdom praised her restraint. Her growth. Her vision. They whispered about how impressive she’d become.The blueprint she submitted earlier kept replaying in my mind through a dinner I barely tasted. By nightfall, I couldn’t hold back my restlessness.I went to her room.I didn’t knock.She was seated at the desk near the window, hair loose down her back, sleeves pushed up, fingers moving quickly across the keys of her laptop.She didn’t look up when I entered.“You’re busy,” I said.“Mmm,” she replied, eyes still locked on the screen.That sound... It was casual, dismissive eve

Chapter: 176: Why here?Natasha’s POVThroughout the past month, since I got my wolf, I've been learning new things about myself every single day.And one of my biggest lessons was that I wasn’t fragile anymore.The palace still carried that familiar chill. Everything remained the same. Same rules dressed up as tradition. But I moved differently inside it now. I noticed things I used to excuse. I noticed how the dreams of many died because they didn't have the power to push for it, either suppressed by their mates or even the restrictions of the Kingdom.I started taking notes. This wasn't something to be treated as less.To think I'm also a victim.At first, it was just a page. Anonymously written. Words typed late at night when sleep refused to come. Stories I’d heard but never seen written down. Women whose goals were being strangled by partners who loved them “too much.” Women trapped by absence, by lack of access, by systems that punished vision instead of nurturing it.I called it The Unbroken Line.B

Chapter: 175: The ConceptMichelle’s POVNo matter how many nights I spent here, the air never got better. Still the same suffocating atmosphere. The walls were cracked, the roof half-collapsed in places, and moonlight slipped through some of the holes. Perfect.Dead places were always safest. No one would think to find me here. No one would even think humanity could survive it here.Michelle’s dead.That was the story now.And stories, when told well, had a way of becoming truth.My phone vibrated.I didn’t rush to answer. I already knew who it was, by the way.When I finally picked it up, I didn’t bother softening my voice. “Go on, what do you have?”Hadrek exhaled on the other end.“She has started her search,” he said.I leaned back against the wall, the cold penetrating through the fabric. “Natasha.”“Yes.”“How far?” I asked.“She knows Korah was her sister,” he replied. “She knows their mom fled with Korah during the war. She knows the maid took her in the chaos. She’s been digging through sealed record

Chapter: 174: What Game are you playing?Lucien’s POVThe meeting ended without me hearing half of what was said.I nodded at the right moments. Signed what looked appealing to me. And spoke only when I felt like. But my mind stayed elsewhere.When the meeting finally came to an end, I left without ceremony. I didn’t need any of that right now. I just needed air.My route home cut straight through Abram’s pack territory.I hadn’t planned to see him, but now that I’m around, it’s better to stop by. He was the only one I could talk to after all.“Stop here!” I said to the driver before pulling out my phone.He answered on the third ring.“What a surprise, the Lycan King is calling,” Abram said, light-toned.“Are you in town?” I asked directly.“Yes.”“Are you free?”A pause. Then, “For you? Or for the mess you’ve made?” He said knowingly.Abram knew me too well. And of course, he must have heard, cause rumours fly so fast around here.I exhaled through my nose. “Both.”“I’m available,” he said. “Meet me at the usual spot.”The

Lycan King's Rebel Bride
My heart felt like it had been ripped from my chest, my world shattered into a million and one pieces. I couldn’t breathe, couldn’t move, couldn’t speak. All I could do was stare, my eyes fixed on the unreasonable scene before me.
“L...Lucia...” my father stuttered, his face flushed with embarrassment and guilt as he immediately lifted his underwear. “It’s not what it seems...”
But I didn’t want to hear it. I didn’t want to hear their excuses.
“Lucia!” Beta Mario called out, his heart pounding heavily as he swallowed a heavy lump.
“Mate?” I said and a pained chuckle escaped my lips.
Goddess! How could you let this realisation come to me now— my cheating asshole boyfriend is— my mate.
My lifelong wish had come to pass… I found my mate. And he happened to be my childhood lover, same guy who had been my boyfriend for two years. It should have been fun, this should have been a happy moment. But there was a painful twist. My dad and my mate were secret lovers, or would I rather say ‘fuck buddies’.
What could be worse than this?
I turned, ready to run off. My heart was already split and I knew that any more second there could make me even more furious, but there was still one thing I was yet to do.
“One more thing...”
“No, please Lucia... you can’t take decisions in haste. I swear I really like you...”
“I Lucia Herod of Crescent land pack reject you Beta Mario of Crescent land pack.”
I'm glad I rejected him— that cheating asshole.
But then, the goddess wasn't done with her surprises.
"I want you to become my wife!" The Lycan King said, causing everyone's jaw to drop.

Chapter: 91: Do you like it?LuciaMom walked me up to him, giving me a kiss on my cheeks before she let my hand go softly into his. He took my hands and helped me come up to the altar.He smiled directly at me, murmuring something so low that if I hadn't been able to read his lips I wouldn't have known what he said.“You look breathtaking" he had said.I wasn't able to make a reply because the priest began to speak. I noticed then that both Dylan and Andrew were behind Rhein, his groomsmen.“Welcome to the marriage and holy matrimony of both Lucia and Rhein, the king and queen of this kingdom. As we bring these two together, we pray that the goddess bless them both” he started.There was a small agreement behind us and he continued. He stated the standard vows of his, making sure we repeated after him.After that, to seal the deal, he

Chapter: 90: You are in LoveLuciaBack at the hotel, mom and I reached faster than Daisy so she met us up at the room. Mom and I had begun to arrange everything we had bought when she arrived.“I just had to check into my room, a floor below yours, so I'm here to help for tonight" she announced when she waltzed in and took a seat.Mom and I exchanged a glance, shaking our heads at her happiness. It felt like she was the one getting married instead. There wasn't much to do except arrange and make sure we did everything in time.She was the one who had the plans for how the day would go. She had it on her tablet which she opened to show the both of us.“It's quite easy actually. But then you're the bride, you'll be spending the whole day doing this” Daisy told me as we both read through it.The first thing on the list was going to the church where Rhein wou

Chapter: 89: Prince CharmingRheinWe continued testing out the dresses after the emotional moment had passed. Mom gave me one last hug before letting me go.Daisy gave one last look at the dress before asking me to go ahead. I went to the changing room and put on the second gown.This one was one of my favorites and I was happy to put it on. I knew it would be exactly what I was looking for. The girl that had followed me helped me zip up.When she was finished, I looked in the mirror, seeing how elegant the dress made me look and loving it so much. It was flowing, the way I had always thought my wedding dress would be.I went out back into the main room where mom and Daisy were. They both let a gasp out when they saw what I had on. Mom stood up to come closer.Daisy grinned, “I don't even think you need to try anything else. Seriously, this is too beautiful." She gus

Chapter: 88: Everything was ChangingLuciaOnce they were there. He left and I rushed to go eat. The food was good but somehow, I couldn't stop thinking about the food at home.It was strange how I was missing it. When I finished eating, I took the trolley with the dirty plates to the front of the lift, covering it so the dirty plates weren't on display.I went back to the bed, picking my phone up so I could call mom. She was late again and we had so much to do today, we couldn't waste time.My phone had just sent a call across when I heard a beep. I looked around, wanting to see what it was. It was from the phone in the room.I went to it and picked it up, “Good morning ma'am. Someone says she's here to see you." It was the receptionist's voice and she gave me mom's name.I told her she was my mother, to let her come up with a card of hers. After that the call ended and I st

Chapter: 87: In LoveLuciaWe went down and into the dining room to get dinner. I felt a happiness I didn't think I would in anticipation for the day that was coming.It was strange because I had spent so long running away and wishing it didn't happen. It had been a while but slowly, I had been getting over it.“Or maybe you're just in love" Lara told me, she had been pushing that idea on me for a while but I refused to believe it.I wasn't in love, I was just comfortable with him. I had learnt so much about him that he and I had grown a closeness I hadn't thought possible.Dinner was great, the food tasted a little different, in a good way because it was beyond delicious. Maybe it was a gift for the upcoming wedding.When we finished eating, I left the room much earlier than everyone else. I needed to pack because tomorrow morning, I would be leaving here.

Chapter: 86: At least FiveLuciaA week had gone by since the press conference and since then, everything had died out. The media had run with a story against Alpha Herod.It took intervention from Rhein for them to let it go and for everything to slowly die down. Now, we were able to move freely without any scrutiny.The wedding was in two days and that meant that I had to leave the house by morning. I was supposed to go back to the pack house but I couldn't go any more.I couldn't go back to where Alpha Herod was, I knew he would be far from welcoming. Rhein hadn't said how he had gotten the evidence to the public but I'm sure he had guessed it.He wasn't stupid and he knew the only possible way would have to be someone who knew the INS and outs of the house quite well.Mom had contacted me a few days ago to talk about it. She still wanted to be a part of everything, do
