LUCIAN

I barely slept.

I lay there most of the night staring at the ceiling, listening to Elias breathe on the other side of the bed. He slept like someone who had already made up his mind about everything. I didn’t. My mind was a mess. Every time I closed my eyes, I saw Reine’s face. I heard her laugh. I heard her voice telling me to stop being scared, telling me I deserved more than the world gave me.

And then I remembered she was gone.

When dawn came, I was already awake.

Elias stood, dressed, boots on, cloak thrown over his shoulders. He didn’t say good morning. He never did. He only looked at me with that same unreadable expression.

“Get ready,” he said. “We leave now.”

That was it. No explanation. No second thought. Just we leave now.

I sat up, rubbed my face, and muttered, “Yeah. Fine.”

I packed slowly, not because I had much. Because part of me still wondered if this was a mistake. My whole life these past years had been a chain of mistakes, and I was

  • Fated to My Brother in-law, The Lycan King   The temple

    LUCIAN The entire drive time to the temple was silent with the tension so thick that a knife could literally cut it.I glanced at Elias multiple times, wondering what was going through his head.At some point when I realized he wasn't going to say anything or even attempt at a small talk, I gave up trying to get him to look at me and stared out the window, gripping the necklace tightly like it would give me back Reine if I gripped harder."Elias..." I called,Why?I don't know, I just wanted to talk to him.Even though I was completely taken back by his attitude these past few days which weirdly feels like years ago and I was in a daze, I'd like him to show just a tiny effort, towards me, towards us."We're here," he announced and alighted the car.I sighed, maybe not.I took a second to collect my feelings and throw them to the deepest part of my mind, then made to open the door, when it came open with Elias standing directly behind it.I blanked for a second.Did he really.....?

  • Fated to My Brother in-law, The Lycan King   Two hours to pack

    LUCIANElias has been avoiding me, or maybe just leaving me alone. I couldn't say.I almost never see him except catch glimpses around.He's everywhere except his room, especially when I was awake.Like these past few days, I came back from a run, and instead of meeting an empty room like it always was, Elias was standing in the room, and his back was turned to me.My heart skipped a beat, I wasn't expecting him. I'd pretty much gotten used to the idea of being alone."Elias?" I called tentatively"We're leaving in a few hours," he turned, a slight frown on his face, "So pack whatever you need and get ready.""Leaving?" I matched his expression."Yes, leaving." He narrowed his eyes at me like he couldn't quite believe I'd be asking that."Well....." I pressed, "Where are we going to?""The temple." He said in a dismissive tone."The temple? Why are we going there? Are you now with them? Forcing me to do the ritual?""No, Lucian," he replied through gritted teeth, "Even though I wasn

  • Fated to My Brother in-law, The Lycan King   Dark Elf Edyrm

    *** The Kingdom of Kuragari****Elf Edyrm laid down in the middle of a flower garden, enjoying the icicles falling on his face when suddenly, his view was blocked.He frowned, squinting his eyes at Elf Vulwin, another Elf on King's council."Why are you here?" Elf Edyrm sat up, "Did you lose your way or something?""I've been frequenting your house these past few days, and each time I went, the lower elfs you have, tell me you've not been home. Where have you been?"Edyrm scoffed, eyeing Vulwin, "I don't think I have to tell you where I've been. It's a free kingdom, I can go wherever.""Edyrm," Vulwin said firmly, wriggling his brows, "You know you don't have to be like that around me."Edyrm rolled his eyes and sighed, "I was just catching some fun, that's all."Vulwin's ears perked up, and he scooted closer, dropping his voice down to a whisper, "What mischief have you been up to?"Edyrm shifted on his butt, staring at Vulwin warily. He wouldn't exactly call the both of them clos

  • Fated to My Brother in-law, The Lycan King   One day at a time

    LUCIAN I sat up, the world spinning, and my head banging with a terrible headache."Hey," Elias whispered, looking at me with worry, "Are you okay?"I frowned, very surprised at his newfound attitude. This was really happening, and it wasn't a from a dream I just woke up from now?I blinked, staring at him.I realized he was expecting an answer from me, but I couldn't bring myself to say a word. Aside from my closed up parched throat being a hindrance, this was weird..I wasn't thinking before, I lost all my thought processes, but this was weird.It's completely weird.I can't deal with Elias being gentle with and not looking at me like he's plotting my murder or different other ways to punish me.No, I couldn't do this. Whatever happened to me must have helped in resetting my head.Elias frowned, passing me a cup of water.I collected the water from him and drank greedily. How the hell did I even land myself in a hostel.The frown on Elias’s face deepened. He stood, looking a

  • Fated to My Brother in-law, The Lycan King   I'll be here

    ELIAS The throne room felt smaller than usual.Not in size—no, the vaulted ceiling still arched high above us, banners still hung in their ceremonial perfection—but in relevance. Every word spoken echoed hollowly in my ears, slipping past me without anchoring. I sat rigid on the throne, elbow resting against the carved arm, fingers curled tightly as if that alone could keep me grounded.It didn’t.“Your Alpha?” one of the council elders called carefully.I blinked once. Twice.“Yes,” I said automatically.The elder exchanged a glance with another council member before continuing. “As I was saying, the border patrol reports increased movement near the eastern ridge. Not an invasion—but enough to warrant attention.”I nodded, though the words barely registered. My thoughts were elsewhere. Not on borders. Not on strategy.On a pale face. Closed eyes. A body that hadn’t responded when I’d called his name.Lucian.I'd come back to the palace immediately, abandoning everything. I shifted

  • Fated to My Brother in-law, The Lycan King   Pleasured

    LUCIAN Elias stepped out of the shower, a waterfall, water sliding down his skin. Before I could even think, he crossed the space between us, and grabbed me by the throat, then pinned me against the wall His arm came up beside my head, caging me in, his body close enough that I could feel the heat radiating off him. Everything in me reacted before my mind could catch up, my pulse leaping, my breath stuttering.“What do you think you’re doing?” he demanded. "Trying to run away from me?"I swallowed. “I—”Goddess!! Why was I suddenly feeling embarrassed. His hand closed around my wrist firmly, enough to remind me who he was. Who I was standing in front of. My anger flared for a second, instinctive as a thought surged through my mind.We'd been intimate. Perhaps made love instead of the usual sex and yet.“Don’t,” I said, even as my body betrayed me, even as my heart pounded like it wanted him closer.For a moment, I thought he would pull away. Instead, his forehead dropped to mine
