A fresh start with the Lycan king The Council
SOPHIE POVWe got to the council minutes later as we didn't spend much time on the road. Magnus had driven in a hurry all the way. It was a miracle that we hadn't gotten into an accident.The building was a large one and stood regal among its smaller counterparts. There were porters around too who saluted us as soon as they saw us. The whole thing was grand. Magnus looked at me to gauge my reaction to the place but I threw my face away. The incident with Miss Prisca had been so shocking. Despite her admitting it, I didn't believe one word of her confession. She was a perfect cat paw for the Queen since she had a motive.The symbol she had made with her hand before she had walked away confirmed my suspicions. She had cupped her hand to form an inverted chalice. In werewolf slang, it meant Luna. I had thought she was paying me her last respect but on the drive here, I realized that I wasn't the only Queen in the kingdom. She had been referring to the King's mother.Despite my sad thoug
A fresh start with the Lycan king Lawson
"What did you say?" Magnus said, rising up in a flash. His voice thundered across the room as his aura flared out making us all shake in our seats."Calm down, Magnus, hear him out first," Mr Thompson advised him. I knew what was coming realizing the warning was in vain.It was already too late, Magnus had already wolfed out and grabbed Mr Lawson by the neck. The Lycans all pleaded with him but to no avail. Mr Lawson wolfed out too trying to save himself but Magnus grip on him was too tight even as he did. We could all feel his sheer strength. Tapping his hand quickly , Mr. Lawson, still in his partially transformed wolf form, gasped for breath as he struggled to speak. The council members, all realizing the gravity of the situation, were all on their feet. They all frantically tried to convince Magnus to release him. Mr Sinclair, the charmer and I were the only one still seated, I was curious to see how it was going to play out. Mr. Thompson's voice remained steady as he implored Ma

The news hit me like a thunderbolt, and I watched in shock as Magnus's face contorted with rage and concern. As the car sped back to the council's meeting place, the tension in the air grew even thicker as many questions ran through my head. My heart raced, and I couldn't help but feel a sense of dread about the escalating situation.When we arrived back at the council's chambers, the scene was different. There were some people gathered around the entrance. We could see Mr Thompson arguing about something with the staff members working there. We ran towards him and he headed for us once he saw us. He looked grim and agitated that he appeared to have aged more in the few minutes that I saw him. "Glad you came back quickly. Dreadful business, we can't believe it." He said, shaking his head. "Where is he now?" Magnus said, looking past him."They are all inside, they didn't go far when it happened so so I called them back." Inside, the council members were in a frenzy, their voices r
A fresh start with the Lycan king Visions
I was awakened from sleep by an insistent banging on the door. Magnus was sleeping soundly besides me. Sometime in the night, he had draped his hands around me and held me in a tight embrace. My wolf purred in satisfaction, and I was pleased with myself. I wanted to dwell longer in his arms and wished that the person at the door would leave.That wasn't the case as there was a repeat performance."Magnus," I called softly. "There's someone at the door."There was no reaction from him and I tried to get up to answer the door myself but his grip even in sleep was tight."Magnus," I said, tapping him. He woke up and looked at me with a questioning expression."Someone's at the door," I repeated. He stood up and lumbered to the door. He stopped to throw on a bathrobe as he wasn't dressed."Betty? What's the matter? Why are you here so early?" I heard him ask when he opened it, his voice still groggy from sleep.There was no reply and I raised my head from the bed to see better. She had sl

"You are arrested for killing the King," Magnus' words sliced through the air like a blade. The world seemed to spin around me as the gravity of his accusation sank in.My thoughts whirled with disbelief, trying to make sense of how he had come to that conclusion. I had no motive, no reason to harm the king. Panic, confusion and anger all threatened to burst out of me in turns."What the hell are you talking about?" I said, giving him the chance to explain himself."You planned with Miss Prisca to kill the King" He said offhandedly as if it was a known fact."You're basing your accusations on the words of a teenager who doesn't like me" I said, glancing angrily at Betty who was still sleeping soundly."Don't even bring her into this. Yes, her vision now makes the whole thing clear. I have been blind to the truth all this while. I have a mind to kill you myself here but that will be too merciful. You will die a slow death. I can promise you that."He held up a hand to cut short my pro
A fresh start with the Lycan king Lies
MAGNUS POVI walked back to the palace angry at Sophie's betrayal. The bitch had been fucking lying all this while. It had taken all my self control not to smash her head with my hands.My wolf had been protesting all the while against me but I paid no heed to him. He wanted her besides us. He had no fucking clue of what was happening.Back in my office, I opened a bottle of vodka and poured a generous amount down my throat. I wanted to forget how easily she had fooled me. Sure, the King would have died soon but she had hastened the process. Betty's revelation flashed through my mind.It was a timely coincidence and one I was ever grateful for. Elena had said that their Lycan family had married a few witches some generations in the past giving rise to some of the Lycans having the gift of prophecy. It had been recessive in Elena but had started showing in Betty from a young age. When she had correctly seen another pack creeping on their village, it had given their pack time to make p
A fresh start with the Lycan king The Seer
I clenched my fists, my anger reaching a new level. "Are you sure someone didn't put you up to this, Betty? Accusing the queen of regicide is a grave accusation."She nodded, still crying. "I swear, Magnus, I saw it in my visions. She poisoned the king."I paced the room, my mind racing. This changed everything and put the case in a whole new light. Accusing the queen of such a heinous crime was not something to be taken lightly. But if Betty's visions were accurate...No,I couldn't think of that.First of all, I had to talk to Luke. I didn't relish the thought that he would be happy that he was right after all. Even at her words, I'll still need to come up with solid proof before taking action."Have you told anyone else about this?" I asked, trying to assess the situation."No, of course not. I would never, you know you're the only one I talk to." she stammered.I took a deep breath, trying to calm myself. "I don't know anything again. Come with me, you need to tell Luke everything
A fresh start with the Lycan king Solitary
My heart pounded as I stood there, stunned by what I was seeing. My mother, the Queen, with a stake in her hand, about to strike down the young actor we had used as bait. She froze, her eyes wide with a mix of surprise and fear as the room was suddenly illuminated. Her hand wavered in the air as she looked at me."Mother, what in the goddess's name are you doing here?" I exclaimed, my voice trembling with a mixture of anger and disbelief.Luke moved swiftly, disarming her before she could react. Haruna was still out cold."You have a lot to explain, your Majesty," Luke said sternly. I raised a hand to stop him from saying anything else. The matter was between my mother and I."Magnus, I can explain, calm down," she said, backing off as I advanced towards her."There's nothing to explain so close your lying mouth, you were caught red-handed in the act. I defended you before the council!," I said, hurt by her betrayal. She wore a loose black overall and a black shawl over her head to hi
