Lycan Prince’s Fated Mate 160: New Era
PHOENIX It felt like I had been sleeping for years on end, and when I finally woke up, my entire body felt fatigued. Too heavy for me to lift even a finger. Ezra was beside me, he was wide awake and he was just watching me. I was aware of his presence, even in my unconscious state and that just made me realize how extremely lucky I am to have him in my life. “Hi,” he whispers, moving closer and pulling my body to his. I sigh when I feel his warmth surround me. He felt like peace, like home. “Hey,” my voice was weak from lack of use so I cleared my throat and tried again. it wasn’t any better not that he seemed to mind. “I feel like I have been sleeping for years.” I mutter, stretch and yawn as my bones make satisfactory pops all around. I felt slightly better after that stretch. “Three days,” Ezra says, his voice gentle and calm. I knew something was wrong from the way he sounded. Pushing back the heaviness I was feeling and the voice in my head telling me this was going to b
Lycan Prince’s Fated Mate 1: Gold Invite
PHOENIXI stare at the piece gold paper in disbelief, multiple voices in my head telling me what would be the best thing to do. One says to burn it and pretend I never saw it, the other, the more compelling one said to just open it and get it over with. I went with the latter, my curiosity being my worst trait.I break the seal and pull the paper out, reading the letter with my heart in my throat.‘Dear Miss Phoenix Alaric, you are receiving this letter because you have been chosen to be one of the contenders at the Fifteenth Fated Banquet event.Congratulations for being one of the lucky she-wolves deemed worthy to be invited to the most important occasion of the decade, THE FATED BANQUET. As one of the members of the Wolf Community who’s Eighteenth birth anniversary falls on this special month, you are expected to attend, and under no circumstances shall you sit out on this.You are to arrive with this invitation at your Wolf Community Town Hall, no later than 12 noon, tomorrow. A b
Lycan Prince’s Fated Mate 2: Betrayal
PHOENIX“Will you tell her or should I?” Lila says with a fake innocent tone. I turn to Jake expectantly and he swallows. I shake my head, not wanting to believe what I am seeing.Not Jake and Lila. My best friend. No, it can’t be. “Phoenix, you know I have needs.” Jake mutters, looking anywhere but my face. I stare at him, trying to see if he is joking but he isn’t.I laugh out loud like a maniac. Trying to convince myself he didn’t just say that of all things. I would much rather believe I’m losing my mind than to find out Jake is cheating on me with Mila, of all people, he picks my best friend.“What do you mean you have needs?” my voice is exuding a calmness I don’t feel.I’d refused to give him my virginity before we got married. We would have before we went to college, as the future alpha of the pack he is expected to find a mate and produce an heir. We have our whole life planned, it seems like I was the only one locked in my fantasy.“Why do you look so dumbfounded? Come on,
Lycan Prince’s Fated Mate 3: Little Mission
EZRAHands that have been warm all my life feel cold against my face, my heart shutters as my mother’s hand slips off my face, falling to her side.The whole world stands at a standstill, or just my world. I can’t hear anything but the entirely too loud sound of my heart breaking in my chest. I have lost the woman I love more than anything and everyone. I have lost my mother.A shuddering breath makes it past my lips and I close my eyes, feeling the burn of tears trying to make it past. I don’t let them fall, the voice of my stewardess coming to my mind, even at a time like this, the words I’ve been hearing since the day I was born stop me from mourning my own mother.“Wipe your tears, prince Ezra. You are to be a king and kings do not cry.” I hate Mrs. Penelope. I hate that even at this time I still hear her voice and more than that, I hate that it stops the tears.I get off the side of the bed, looking down at my mother’s once lively face. She looks nothing short of beautiful, and
Lycan Prince’s Fated Mate 4: Ex-friends
PHOENIX‘Phoenix, where are you?’ I’m a block away from the wolf community when I hear my mum’s gentle voice in my head. It makes tears spring to my eyes but I try to keep the emotions at bay, knowing she can feel them if she is mindlinking.‘I went out with a few friends. I’ll be back later,’ my tongue feels bitter as I lie.‘Oh, alright. Have fun dear and please come back before dinner.’ I hum as a reply, not having the gall to lie to her again out loud. She cuts off our mindlink the same time I reach the building of the wolf community.There is a very long bus waiting already with a Wolf House logo on it. I suck in a sharp breath and go straight to the back of the bus. I don’t stop until I get to the last seat, not wanting to drag attention to myself.I look out the window, where a few parents are standing with their beloved daughters. Some are crying while others try to seem strong and not break down, mostly the fathers. My heart burns and the tears I’ve been trying to hold back h
Lycan Prince’s Fated Mate 5: Tests
PHOENIX I’m shivering like a leaf in winter by the time I get to the door that has the same number as the keypad I was give. My teeth are chattering badly. I unwrap my arms from around me and with shaky fingers, I unlock the door and push it open. A dark haired girl is sitting on the bed when I stumble into the room. She screams in horror before regaining control and moving back, like she wanted to shield herself from me. I only muster a small smile and enter the room, closing the door behind me. She is still watching me cautiously as I rest my back on the closed door, breathing heavily. Her long dark hair forms a veil around her face as she watches me from beneath her lashes. I read her nametag and nodded to myself. Jenny Green of Nightlight pack. The name is familiar to me, they are a small pack, one of the smallest in the country. Much smaller than ours. No wonder she is reserved. I offer her a smile, hoping she would see that I am harmless. “Hi, I’m Phoenix.” She eyes me wari
Lycan Prince’s Fated Mate 6: Scores
PHOENIXThe next morning, I wake up with a feeling of crippling anxiety. The breakup with Jake and Lila’s betrayal feels like nothing, the only thing that is running through my mind is what the scores would be, what the future has in store for me.My only hope right now is for my score to reach even if it’s six. That is the pass mark which would help me not end up being a breeder. I’ve never wanted to go to the palace so my prayer is to get at least six, so I can be taken by hopefully a nice man. It wouldn’t be easy and it almost seems like wishful thinking but it is my only hope and I don’t want to lose it.Jenny and I dressed in silence, both of us lost in our thoughts, knowing in just a few minutes, our lives are going to change, it would either be a good change or a bad one. One thing is certain, and that is there is nothing we can do about it.We all gather in the square like yesterday. The entire hall is quiet as a graveyard, everyone standing with bated breaths, waiting for the
Lycan Prince’s Fated Mate 7: Unfair Treatment
EZRAI drove down to a small apartment on our way there where we changed into simple clothes. He doesn’t ask why the change until we’re back in the car and I give him one answer.“We need to blend in.” I don’t know when the date of the cursed event will be but I know I have to get there before they send the girls off to the breeding houses. The date wasn’t written on the letter but it should be very soon, since they’ll bring the winner or whatever to the palace.The car is filled with plans on how we are getting in there without any invite and since we’re hiding our identity, there won’t be any special favors. I tell him we’ll figure it out and it is the least of our problems.When the looming building comes into view, my body stiffens and my wolf shifts, seeming restless for some weird reason. Nate notices.“Are you okay man?” he asks as we exit the car. We parked a few blocks away from the building to avoid bringing attention to ourselves.“Yes,” I clear my throat and motion for him
