ADELINE

My heart was pounding raggedly as he dragged me down the hall and up the stairs like I weighed nothing. I had to grip tightly onto the railings to keep from staggering to the floor.

This was all my fault. What was I thinking?!

I'd been so jittery and panicky about everything that was going on; my pregnancy and the fact that I was going to be officially introduced as Luna of this pack. It kept me on edge all night and I felt like I was constantly looking over my shoulder, expecting something terrible to happen.

So the moment my eyes landed on the figure of the man that resembled Hilton in stature, I'd lost my mind. I'd only realized my terrible mistake when the man was standing a few inches away and offering a full view of his face.

But by then, it was too late.

A man was almost killed because of me.

I was yanked back to reality by a sharp tug on my arm. Alpha Dominic had practically thrown me into his chambers, banging the door behind him. Now I stood in the massive room,

  • Accidentally Mated To The Ruthless Lycan King   Chapter 26: The Result Of Mingling 

    ADELINEI glanced around the hall awkwardly, wondering what I was supposed to do with myself. I wanted to yell at Alpha Dominic to come back, beg him to stay by my side instead of leaving me alone in this crowded hall, but he was already walking away as though he'd arrived solo. A streak of annoyance pricked my chest. I didn't ask to be at this party. The least he could do was let me stick by his side till it was all over. But no. Instead, he was giving me strict instructions on what to do and what not to do, what to say and what not to say. Why couldn't he just let me stay at the palace instead? By now I would be chatting with Giselle or doing something else that wouldn't make my heart skip. Anything was better than this. I rubbed my arms lightly and forced myself to take steps forward. I had no idea where I was going, but this was my lame attempt at mingling. Everywhere I looked, there was a sea of faces. Suddenly, I realized something. Was I hallucinating or were most of them

  • Accidentally Mated To The Ruthless Lycan King   Chapter 25: An Unreasonable Jealousy 

    DOMINIC I was almost running by the time I reached the training field, my chest heaving. But when I neared the spot where the two of them were standing, my movements came to an abrupt halt. I'd barged out here without thinking it through. But now that I thought about it, I had no idea why I was here at all. One sight of the woman I was supposedly indifferent about with my Beta, and I came charging like a wild horse. What the hell was I even doing here? Why did I feel this unreasonable jealousy hammering in my chest?This was ridiculous.‘She is our mate, goddamn it,’ Draco’s voice echoed in my head. “She is not deserving of that title. And she's not my type,” I hissed back. Draco rumbled with laughter. ‘Interesting. Yes, that makes sense. It's probably why you are having such a violent reaction to seeing her with another man, because she's not your type.’I looked away, refusing to acknowledge his words. I took a step back, suddenly aware of how ridiculous I probably looked stand

  • Accidentally Mated To The Ruthless Lycan King   Chapter 24: Combat Trousers And A Warmup

    ADELINEI stretched my legs out on the couch, placing a hand over my mouth to stifle a yawn. Slowly, I pulled myself up to a sitting position and glanced around the room, taking in the pleasant sight of streaks of sunlight spilling through the curtains. It had been two days since Giselle returned, and things were back to normal again. At least, some of them. I was still trying to get used to sharing a chamber with Alpha Dominic; staying out of his way as much as possible, trying not to gape at him whenever I caught a glimpse of his shirtless back, timing my showers for when I knew he wouldn't be here to avoid any awkwardness, and searching for a solution to my morning sickness. I'd learned that taking a lemongrass mint tea first thing in the morning was tremendously helpful. But the goddess help me, it was so nasty I wasn't sure how much longer I could keep it up for.Maybe I could try a ginger mix next. The important thing though, was that my baby was safe and sound. The fear of m

  • Accidentally Mated To The Ruthless Lycan King   Chapter 23: Annoyed Or Impressed

    DOMINIC Up until this very moment, I had harbored a festering irritation and resentment against Adeline for how she wormed her way into becoming my Luna. Yes, there had been times when her actions strongly contradicted the gold-digging opportunist I'd imagined her to be, but I'd brushed it off, convinced that she was only putting on an act. But now, I knew beyond reasonable doubt that she was telling the truth. No one in her position would risk their life for a maid, a friend. Her words from earlier were still resounding in my head. She was willing to be rejected and executed, losing not only her title as Luna, but her life as well. That was definitely not the attitude of an opportunist. As I drove back to my estate, my mind whirled with thoughts. All this time, I had blamed Adeline for the mix-up of the mating ceremony, but realizing now that she was a victim in a conspiracy created a bigger problem. It meant that someone under my roof, in my very own pack, had dared to sabotage

  • Accidentally Mated To The Ruthless Lycan King   Chapter 22: Such A Protector 

    ADELINE“Behind me, now!”I pulled myself to my feet at the Alpha's command and ducked a few feet behind him, my heart hammering in my chest.When he began to attack the rogues, I watched on, my emotions a mix of awe and disbelief. He was the last person I expected to see here, especially not after I'd disobeyed and walked out on him barely thirty minutes ago.But my eyes weren't playing tricks on me. Not only had he just saved me, he was also slashing his way through the rogues to rescue Giselle.I was so transfixed by the sight I couldn't take my eyes off him. He was a beast in battle, and I was only now truly beginning to understand how he'd gotten that reputation. Of course I'd heard rumors of how vicious the Lycan King was in combat, but this was my first time experiencing it.He was s

    ADELINEMy chest felt like it was seconds away from exploding. I did not have an inkling as to how or where I'd gotten the courage to challenge the Lycan King, but I was going along with it. Tears were still streaming down my cheeks as I walked out of the palace and headed out of the estate, armed with nothing but my wits and the faith I had in my wolf. I was just so…angry. I used to think I understood what anger felt like, but I was so wrong. I'd never felt true anger until this day. I was angry at myself, angry at the rogues, angry at Alpha Dominic. But more than anything else, I was angry at Hilton. Up until this day, I had felt nothing but fear towards Hilton, even in his absence. But now when I thought of him, it was like something dark twisting in the pit of my stomach; hatred like I'd never felt before. I'd stayed in that pack clinic, helpless and hopeless after I'd first gone in search of Alpha Dominic to ask for help. But every single time I shut my eyes, images of Hilton
