Lyra’s POV

By the time I became conscious again, the first thing I noticed was the heavy ache in my wrist and the cold, hard surface beneath me. I was still in the torture room, the metallic smell of dried blood was in the air. My wrists were raw where the chains had dug into my skin, but there was no one else in the room. My head pounded, but it was the silence that unnerved me the most.

Apart from the pains around my wrist and my pound heading, I was totally okay. There weren't any signs of any bruises or injury inflicted on my body.

I tried to adjust in the chair slowly, wincing at the dull pain spreading through my body. My stomach growled, a sign of hunger.

‘What time could it be?’ I thought.

My last meal was during the treaty agreement with the Lycan King and I'm seriously starving.

Memories of what happened earlier came flooding back. Alpha Cormac had been in here, trying to extract information from me before Nyx took control. But something didn't add up. If Nyx had indeed t

  • Claimed By The Lycan King   24. Deceptive Bargain

    Lycan King Logan's POVSitting in the midst of the council of elders, I struggled to stifle a yawn. Bored out of my fucking mind but no choice than to hear them out as the meeting dragged on. As the Lycan King, I had no choice but to hear them out, respecting their position and tradition. Their position in the pack can't be abolished yet they all knew that my word was law. My decisions, though sometimes might be influenced by their counsel, were always final. They knew how strong headed, unyielding I could be. I nodded, acknowledging their contributions as they suddenly shifted the topic to what I wasn’t expecting. I straightened in my chair.There was a sudden tension in the council chamber that was intense. I was seated at the head of the long, polished table, my eyes scanning them before me. Their tones were cautious, but there was an undercurrent of defiance that I hadn’t heard from them in years. It was almost surprising.“Lycan King Logan,” one of the elders, Elder Gregor, bega

  • Claimed By The Lycan King   23. The Missing Daughter

    Alpha Owen’s POV I paced my office with my hands folded behind my back, the sound of my boots hitting the wooden floor echoing in the silence. My wolf, Vex, growled low in my mind, his frustration mirroring exactly what I felt. It had been a week since Lyra disappeared, and my patience was wearing thin. Every passing hour only makes my frustration grow more. She was my daughter, my blood and my property. She couldn’t have gone far. She was not smart enough or strong enough to stay off my radar for long, except someone had helped her. “Where could she have gone?” Vex snarled.“Whoever is helping her will pay for this,” I growled. “They’ll pay in blood,” I muttered out loud.I clenched my fists, my nails digging into my palms. That ungrateful girl. After everything I had done for her, she had the audacity to run away. I had fed her, clothed her, and given her a roof over her head after her mother died. And this was how she repaid me? By running off like some rebellious pup?“We need

  • Claimed By The Lycan King   22. The Mysterious Human

    Lyra’s POV “No,” I snapped.After I snapped at her, she disappeared to the back of my head and left me to my meal. Thinking that was all. Immediately I was done, I leaned back against the chair when I felt her stirring in my head again, but she said nothing. I sat in the chair idle and not knowing what to do next, aside from sleeping or sitting. This was the part I wished I was back to Frostbite, where I was always busy working, running errands or helping Calantha out. I never had friends at Frostbite. Anyone I tried to make friends with became an enemy of Kaida. Even while others went to school, I couldn’t. At first, I did, but when Kaida was older, bullying me and making my classmates turn against me, I decided I was done with school. She made life unbearable for me since her mother kept feeding her the idea of Father making me Alpha since I was the first child. Kaida and Luna Ophelia have been trying all possible means to get rid of me. I won’t be surprised if it was Luna Ophe

  • Claimed By The Lycan King   21. Unspoken Secrets

    Lyra’s POV Staring at the ceiling while I laid on my back, Alpha Cormac’s sudden change of attitude baffles me and I can't help but think about what brought about the changes. His response to my question before he left lingered in my head. It sounded so sweet and assuring with a hint of sincerity. I was his mate, but I didn't expect him to welcome me with open arms considering the circumstances of how I came into his pack and what went down afterwards. Was all the threats just a facade to make me cower at his feet?I knew he had his doubts about my intentions and just an Alpha doing his duties for the safety of his pack. It was in the early afternoon when a soft knock sounded at my door, pulling me out of my thoughts. I turned toward the sound, expecting Matilda or perhaps Alpha Cormac himself, but instead, a young woman stepped in, balancing a tray with a covered dish with one of her hands as she pushed the door wide open with the other hand.I swung my legs over the side of th

  • Claimed By The Lycan King   A Delicate Act

    Alpha Cormac’s POV For some moments I didn't answer the question. I knew what the answer was but I doubt she would want to hear that. Then I stepped closer, her warm eyes meeting mine. “Because you’re my mate, Lyra,” I said softly, holding her hand. “And because you deserve it.” Before she could respond, I turned and left the room, leaving me alone with my thoughts and a chance to escape from more questions she could be dying to ask. As I left Lyra’s room, a storm of conflicting emotions churned within me. The confident, calculated attitude I always wore as Alpha felt shaky at this point. I was used to managing power plays, controlling situations, and forcing outcomes that worked in my favor. But this… this delicate entanglement with Lyra was different entirely.Her question echoed in my mind once again.“Why are you being nicer?”It wasn’t that I’d suddenly turned soft. I needed her, plain and simple. And she wasn’t just some stray wolf who wandered into my territory. She was

  • Claimed By The Lycan King   19. A Step Forward

    Lyra’s POV My breath hitched when I saw Alpha Cormac step inside. His presence filled the room instantly, commanding attention even in silence. I sat up straighter on the bed, unsure of what to expect and why he was here. “What are you doing here?” I blurted out in shock.Alpha Cormac’s expression remained unreadable as he stepped closer, his dark eyes meeting mine with an intensity that made my pulse quicken, but he had a warm look. His intoxicating smell filled the air, making my hormones stirred up. He didn’t answer my question right away. Instead, he walked over to the edge of the bed and, to my surprise, sat down beside me. The mattress dipped under his weight, the proximity making it impossible to ignore the pull of the mate bond between us. He turned to face me, his gaze softening and warmer than usual. “Relax, I'm not here to hurt you or do anything you don't like,” he answered.“I wanted to see if you’d made a decision,” he added. I hesitated, my fingers twisting the
