Meeting His Fated Mate

Chapter 5

Lyra

I stood still, dazed by what Alpha Thane declared. If the wolf king was executed in my body then I was going to die, again.

No way! But how do I stop this terrifying being?

"Take the woman to the execution ground now," Alpha Thane demanded, ordering the guards to take Malrik away.

Chills ran down my spine.

I was going to die if my body was taken to execution. My throat dried up at the thought of that. I was made to speak but I was interrupted by Malrik who spoke in my body.

"You have no authority over the Wolf King!" He bellowed without thinking twice, earning gasp from the crowd present.

A woman from the trials speaking out of turn is unheard of, I couldn't hide my shock either. I turned sharply to face him but High priestess Maera spoke immediately.

"How does a nameless temptress know of Alpha Thane?" The priestess asked, gliding forward. "You should know nothing of our kingdom." Her eyes narrowed on me suspiciously.

My eyes traveled through the crowd and all gazes were fixed on me. They needed an explanation as to why the temptress had suddenly recognized someone in the pack.

It was all messed up. My heart thudded in my chest while Malrik and I locked eyes across the crowd. I had to come up with something quick, else it would turn out worse than I imagined.

"I told her about Thane." I said in Malrik's deep voice and all eyes turned to face me in dismay. Shit! Malrik in my body stared at me expressionless. "Actually, the thing is," I trailed off, trying to figure out what best to say.

"What thing is that?" Alpha bellowed, impatiently.

"We talked. During the trial." I replied, regretting my statement immediately as Malrik in my body slaps a hand over his face, flustered.

"You both talked?" Selene asked, stunned, her face twists with fresh betrayal. "You said she was nothing!" She yelled, causing the crowd to erupt in whispers.

The Wolf King conversing with his temptation during the sacred trial is scandalous. I had ruined it once more and if I kept up with that act, things would end up getting worse than it was.

I had to end the conversation there.

"This discussion is over." I spoke in Malrik's commanding tone, keeping a straight face. "The woman goes to my chambers under guard. I will deal with her personally." I added, sparing Alpha Thane a glance before storming toward the palace.

The guards dragged Malrik in my body, behind me. I dismissed the guards after stepping into Malrik's suite. I walked to the door, threw open Malrik's suite doors and slammed them shut.

"Goodness! That was close," I sighed, leaning against the door. I turned back to face Malrik but he rushed up to me immediately shoving at my chest. "What is this for?" I asked with widened eyes, surprised by the sudden attack.

"You just made everything worse!" He yelled in my voice. "They think I had a CONVERSATION with you during the trial!" He snarled in my body.

I rolled my eyes before speaking. "What else do you expect me to do?" I demanded. "I only did what I think was best for us," I glared back at him.

"This is completely wrong!" Malrik yelled, stepping away from me with a furrowed brow. I stared as he paced frantically around the room. "We have to switch back. Now."

What?

"How?" I asked, confused. "We don't even know what caused it!" I yelled. Completely clueless about what he meant.

I had no knowledge about how it happened, how then would we be able to change when we knew nothing about what caused it in the first place.

Malik suddenly stops pacing. "It happened when we kissed." He said and I turned to him sharply. "When we... touched." He added.

My body stiffened at the mention of the word, I stood still sensing the air between us thicken. I stared back at Malrik in my body and he moved closer to me.

My heartbeat rapidly, not in fear but I felt something else. A need to make him do it. The warmth I felt having him closer spoke louder than words.

"I have no–"

"I don't want this either!" He yelled. "I need my fucking body back, let's just see if it switches us back–"

I kissed him. Again.

He seemed shocked at first but he adjusted quickly into the kiss, kissing me back. It felt completely different from earlier, I wasn't tasting his lips like it felt earlier instead I sucked on my soft lips.

Soft. Tempting.

I leaned closer, almost forgetting our purpose. I only wanted more, maybe deeper than what Malrik in my body was doing. I hoped it worked like Malrik had suggested but nothing seemed to be working after a while.

I made to pull away but Malrik in my body pulled me closer, kissing me harder. Much deeper than we had at the lake earlier. My tongue slipped into Malrik's, and a warm unfamiliar sensation swept through me, leaving my body tingling in its wake.

I felt his heavy cock on me harden, the throbbing in his cock increased. The feeling felt completely strange to me as heat flooded through me.

He leaned even closer as his hands travelled through my chest, sending vibration through my body. Malrik shook in my body also, as I could feel my nipple tightening against my chest.

"Good heavens," I groaned, not wanting to let go.

I pulled him, one hand sliding down to grip my ass. Marlik lifted himself up in my body and I rubbed his ass gently. My jutting member slapped against his stomach and he raised my legs wrapping it around my hips.

I could feel my own nipple poking through my dress, rubbing gently on my chest. He tilted his head kissing me deeper and a hot thick arousal ran through my veins.

It was driving me nuts and I wished for even more.

I could feel my own curves pressed against his hard body from the outside. I pulled him closer not wanting to miss any of the moment but Malrik suddenly wrenched away.

I gasped in shock and he stepped away also, breathing hard.

My eyes went wild. "No. No!" Marlik yelled in my own voice. "This is a damn thing, it doesn't work. We're not switching." He added, completely pissed.

I only kept mute watching him glare at me. He brought the idea, he shouldn't blame me for it. Should he?

"I'm not sure either, " I replied and he glanced at his body.

He stared down at my body, he glared back at me not hiding his frustration.

"This is just making it worse." He added, referring to my body.

"I don't feel good about this either," I replied. " I was thoroughly hoping it would work too but–"

"Stay away from me," Malrik yelled, turning away sharply. I staggered back in fear, sensing his anger. "Don't touch me again unless absolutely necessary." He added, glaring once again before walking properly into the room.

Seriously?

I rolled my eyes, following him. Though he was a few distances away from me. Watching my own view made me notice something new about myself. Maybe I was better looking than I had thought of myself.

Marlik opened the door to the bathroom when I heard a sharp knock on the door. He turned sharply and I did the same, I wondered who would have come to visit him after I had dismissed everyone earlier.

"That's Selene," Malrik hissed.

"What?" My eyes widened in shock.

Why was she there again? She properly wanted to have a proper discussion with the Wolf king.

"You better treat her with dignity," Malrik said. "She's my fated mate, and you've already done enough damage."

"Really?" I muttered, sticking out my tongue at him childishly.

He glared at me one last time, before storming into the bathroom, slamming the door.
