Chapter 6
Lucas POVI watched my fated mate walk away with another man in disbelief. Seeing another man hold her hand and calling her his chosen mate made me regret the path I had chosen by taking Kiran to replace Everly as my mate. “I should do all what it takes to fight for Everly. Even if it means challenging the King”. I confidently told myself. “Did Kiran really love me or was she just obsessed by my position as an Alpha of the pack?” I started regaining my mind back. I think I should not have allowed myself to be blinded by her fake love, to the extent of doing such crazy thing like abandoning the person who truly loved me.All had been going well between me and Everly before she innocently introduced me to her best friend Kiran. Even though Everly was an Omega, bonds become so tight that I dint mind her being my mate and becoming the Luna after my coronation as the Alpha of the pack. She was intelligent and beautiful. Additionally, she seem to havIt has been close to a week since we were in the restaurant with my mate Everly accompanied by her best friend. The sweet memories of that night were still fresh in my mind. But I tried as much as I could not to think so much about my mate’s best friend, Kiran. I knew I had the best mate ever, and have always believed that we were destined to be together. Although Kiran had tried her best to attract my attention that night, I couldn’t imagine changing my mind on Everly’s love. Everly was beautiful and intelligent. Additionally, I have always believed that she truly loved me. I could not afford loosing Everly. “Has my mind started sinking into confusion over whom I should make my mate and the Luna of the packed after being coroneted in a few months to come?’ I asked myself but the answer was so obvious to me. Well, I believe that Kiran was equally attractive that night. She also seemed chamming and friendly. She was equally beautiful in her well-tailored outfit. Hoping that she didn’t d
I woke up the following day and found myself beside Lucas in his bed. The memories of the previous night ran through my mind. I had no idea how I slept but what I could remember doing is moaning and shouting at Lucas’ name countless times telling him to go harder on me. I had no regrets of having slept with Everly’s mate. After all, I have never liked that girl. I have been pretending all along even though, she trusted me and believed that we were close friends. I have never liked the idea that whenever we are together with Everly, anyone we meet seemed to me more attracted to her. “Was I not equally attractive?” I have always wondered. But when he introduced me to Lucas, I decided to do all what it takes to snatch him from her. I was even more motivated to have Lucas as my mate when I learned that he would soon become the Alpha of the pack. Lucas seemed to have equally enjoyed the night. I was even more thrived when he confidently declared to me that he has never enjoyed
Kiran’s POV Days have passed and now it was one week towards Lucas’ crowning as the Alpha. He has been so busy and occupied with the planning of the ceremony. It therefore become hard to meet him frequently as I have used to. I was becoming worried since all these long, he has never declared to me as to whether he still intended to make me his mate or Everly. Probably it was also hard for him to decide. I knew he has truly loved Everly, but it was evident that he always enjoyed the good times we have always had with him. Everly has always been updating me on the planning of the event. This confirmed to me that the two were still together. Everly had been so excited about the whole idea and she could not hesitate sharing with me. To her, I was still her best friend and thus he could not fear telling me anything to do with her mate. Her closeness to me worked very well for since I could plan when and how to approach the idea of winning Lucas and snatching him from
Lucas’ POV There was a moment of silent. I cleared my thought as I looked at Kiran. Kiran jerked up to a sitting position then looked at me with a wiry smile. The doctor’s words left me breathless for some few seconds. “W...what?” I stammered as I looked at his eyes in astonishment. The doctor glanced at me then back to Kiran and gave out a horrible frown, “I thought that you were aware?” he asked Kiran as he slowly walked out of the room after handling a paper of prescription to her. A nurse will come and escort to the pharmacist to collect your medication” he added. For all that time, Melody was just standing there looking at both of us amazingly. She seemed to have many questions about us but preferred to keep it to herself. But from the look at her face, you could tell that she has an idea of my relationship with Kiran and not so happy about it, bearing the fact that she was a close friend to my mate. Kiran gazed at me with a smile that indicated that she wanted to wh
Lucas’ POVI was glad that Everly did not come back to the hospital room when the doctor was announcing about Kiran’s pregnancy. Kiran and Melody, accompanied by the nurse were behind me walking out of the hospital room to go to the pharmacist. I had taken a turn to head to the direction where Everly was then I saw her turn and started walking towards me. She had already ended the phone call. “Oh, sorry I took so long on the phone call.” She apologized as we met. “It’s alright, we were almost leaving. Kiran and Melody have proceeded to collect the medication.” I explained. “Wow, that’s nice. What was she suffering from? I hope it was not something serious.” She anxiously inquired. “Sure, it was nothing serious. She will be alright soon. But the doctor advised her to take good care of herself. Drink more water and eat well.” I tried to explain to her. But still wondering how exactly I could hide it from her on the real results of Kiran’s pregnancy. “I hope she won’t inquire
Lucas POVIt has been two weeks since we were with Kiran at the hospital. Since I learned of her pregnancy, she started becoming closer to my heart than before. However, we rarely had any conversation on how to let Everly know about our relationship. It would be hard for both of us to announce it to Everly. I have been her mate for the longest time possible and Kiran has been her best friend. Nobody wanted to address the elephant I the house. We just decided to let the river follow its course. Everly’s past sweet memories started fading slowly and before I could knew it, my whole mind was preoccupied with Kiran. I no longer felt any guilt sleeping with Kiran like I felt on our first encounter. I knew I was now fully decided on whom to become my chosen mate, and that was obviously Kiran. The poor girl, Everly had no place in my heart anymore. But what could a lowly omega expect. She would soon have to obey her superiors. She had been trying to try as much as she could to pl
Everly’s POVLucas and Kiran had already managed to subject me to enough pain and ended up selling me to the Lycan king. We had already exited the auctioneer's room with Alex then I was hustled into his waiting carriage, and soon the horses surged forward with a whisker. I slumped against threaded wool, drinking in fresh scents of pine and musk that seemed... comforting, compared to the filth and fear permeating my world for so long. Silence reigned for some time as the countryside rolled by, my new lord content to simply observe with that unfathomable stare."You need not fear me, little one," rumbled a deep baritone suddenly, yet its gentleness surprised me. "No harm will come to you in my care, you have my word. Rest now; we have a long journey, and you've endured too much as it is."Despite my instincts screaming this was surely another cruel trick, a sob welled in my throat at such small kindness after endless cruelty. Exhaustion claimed me before I knew what c
Lucas’ POVI have held the Lycan king title for so many years. Lycans are widely recognized as the most powerful species. We aim to safeguard the werewolves and uphold equality among all supernatural species. We can heal faster than werewolves. Additionally, a regular Lycan is capable of defeating an alpha. Indeed, we possess great power. We strive to be responsible individuals who are mindful of our actions, ensuring that we do not abuse our power to bully individuals of any species.I had been running the kingdom on my own, eagerly awaiting the arrival of my mate. Commonly, lycans face challenges in locating their mate, and I have not been an exemption. I have tried to utilize my special abilities as a Lycan to locate my destined mate to no success. Most of the Lycans I have known did not find their mates until they were very old. They ended up getting chosen mates. I have had no intention of having a chosen mate. I decided to wait patiently u
