KAEL

I shivered in the midnight air as I entered the pack house. Shifting back to human, I braced myself against the doorframe and drew in a ragged breath.

The Gravok’s void-like face and the ferals’ disturbing restraint looped through my head like a riddle I couldn’t unravel.

Why the fuck didn’t they attack?

I crept into the foyer, planning to sneak upstairs, when voices from the living room froze me in place. Beside the fire, in a huddle-like formation, a heated but low-voiced interrogation was unfolding between my grandfather Eldric and his childhood comrade, Elder Mira.

Eldric narrowed his eyes as his gaze snapped to me. “You’re late, Kael.” his tone was firm and loud. “I told you to be back hours ago. What’s the meaning of this?”

Elder Mira’s eyes flicked toward me, curious but silent. Eldric’s temper barely registered. I was still trembling inside. My body was rattled from the encounter with the Gravok.

I can’t let Mira know. She’s got a loose tongue. If word of ferals inside ou

  • Lycan King's Cursed and Rejected Mate   Chapter#34

    KAEL His words landed like a slap, and I could feel the firestorm ignite in my chest. I wanted to punch him. My head filled with blood, and I could feel Fenrir growling in my veins. I must have looked pathetic: Lycan Leader undone over a girl her own family cast aside, showing cracks in front of my warriors and her family. This wasn’t me. I was supposed to be stronger than this.I drew a deep breath, making my voice steady, though it shook with the suppressed fury. “It is my duty to ensure that packs treat their members, even their youngsters, with respect and protection.” I sounded like a robot, even to myself.The excuse was lame, I already knew it, but I couldn’t think of anything else.Tobias instantly covered for me. “Maybe we should just talk to Maya ourselves,” he said, "We will need her testimony concerning the Feral assault as part of our records, to learn what has happened and ensure that our healers are aware of the best procedure in the case of future casualties."Darius

  • Lycan King's Cursed and Rejected Mate   Chapter#33

    KAELMy heart thudded with a blend of dread and trepidation as soon as I stepped out of my car in front of the Ashbourne’s Pack house. I wasn’t scared or confused. I knew exactly what I was doing, and I knew I had to do this. I wasn’t here for Maya. I only came to see her parents, have a little talk with them, and then drive back to my place. But who was I kidding? Because deep down, I wanted to catch a glimpse of her so bad, even if it were for a second. Ever since my chat with Tobias, Fenrir had been pacing back and forth in my mind. I thought I’d feel better once he finally responded, but my condition only worsened. He wanted her so badly it weakened him. And now the healer’s potions weren’t even working, no matter how strong the dose I took.I didn’t come alone. I wanted to, but being the king of the Lycans, I had to have protocols. Tobias walked beside me, and twelve other warriors accompanied us. Alpha Darius stood outside with his wife, Luna Seraphina, and their other daught

  • Lycan King's Cursed and Rejected Mate   Chapter#32

    KAEL“What?” I let out a bitter laugh. “My mate? A wolfless deviant? That’s… awfully ridiculous.”“You can stop hiding it from me, Alpha.” Tobias’s words hit me like a blow. “You rushed to that forest for her, even after I told you it wasn’t wise. No other woman could’ve ever made you do that… except for your mate.”“Okay, okay,” I raised my hands in mocking defense. “You caught me. It was a mistake, alright. I told you, it’s her pheromones. They drive me insane. And just to make things clear… I rejected her.”“Yeah, I know you rejected her,” he taunted, lifting two fingers and squeezing them together in the air, pressing on the word like it was something sour. “And that was a dumb move. She’s not some Omega or Gamma. Her parents are Alpha blood.”“She’s wolfless goddamnit!” I stammered. “Why didn’t you tell me that you knew?”“Don’t do this, Alpha,” Tobias shook his head and then shrugged, letting out a low breath. “I was waiting for you to tell me yourself, but you didn’t, so I thou

  • Lycan King's Cursed and Rejected Mate   Chapter#31

    KAELIf it’s tearing me up this bad, an Alpha with a powerful wolf to anchor me, how much worse must it be for her? I thought rejecting her would kill the bond, but it’s like hacking at a rope that just won’t break.I lay on the healer’s table. Sweat covered my body while I shook uncontrollably. I felt a wave of pain as though there was liquid fire trying to burn me from the inside out. My muscles contracted to the point where I was fairly certain they were in danger of ripping, and each joint in my body hurt as if it had been forcibly dislocated. I gripped my chest, willing the searing ache in my heart to end, but it kept hammering. I groaned, trying to stifle the cry. One week had passed since Maya left.But the agony worsened with each passing day, which kept reminding me that the connection was not some old wives’ tale to be shrugged off.The healer hesitated a moment, and then his brow furrowed in concern. “You’re condition’s worsening, Alpha,” he mumbled, sounding uneasy. “I’v

  • Lycan King's Cursed and Rejected Mate   Chapter#30

    FINNEverybody had a first: the first kiss, the first hug, the first love. Mine were different, though. They weren’t about moments that pass or milestones carved in romance. Every first I’d ever experienced, the agonies and thrills of them all, were bound up with Maya, stitched into my life like a seam I couldn’t tease apart.Maya was my everything, though she had never known it. I was 10 years old when my mother died. I drowned in grief so deep I could hardly breathe. For days, I sat in my room, looking at the wall, lost in the void of her abrupt absence. She’d gone to the pack hospital to have my baby brother, but she never came back. My father was similarly overtaken by his own grief, barely able to meet my eyes, let alone offer any comfort. His responsibilities as Beta of the Ashbourne Pack consumed him quickly, and I was left to deal with my grief. But Maya… she was there.I even pushed her away at first because I was too buried in my grief to let anyone in. But she didn’t giv

  • Lycan King's Cursed and Rejected Mate   Chapter#29

    MAYA“You think I don’t know she’s my own daughter?” Father’s jaw tightened as he gave Finn a cold glare. “It doesn’t matter how bad she looks… fleeing from the Alpha of all Lycans, or the White Throne Council, endangers us all. You may not get how grave this is, but I do.”My mother looked at me with those hate-filled eyes of hers. “You’ve always been stubborn, Maya, and now you’ve just dragged poor old Finn into your mess. Don’t play the victim here.”“I did not run away,” I finally decided to speak up, though my voice was little and weak. "The Lycan Leader sent me away himself.”“That’s impossible!” Father’s eyes opened in surprise. He should’ve been happy to listen to the news, but there was something else in his eyes, which told me he wasn’t happy at all. He continued, “The minimum sentence for failing to keep your heat on is six months, not to mention you tried to seduce the king himself. You were barely a month there.”I was too damn tired to keep arguing and proving myself wor
