A random person~
That was what he was to Amber but the moment she had looked at him she couldn't keep her eyes off him.
Even though his face was decorated with burn marks, cuts and scraps probably from the snow during his journey, he still looked delectable enough. The left side of his face was still mottled black and blue and his lower lip looked a little swollen.
When Amber had seen him for the first time laying unconscious on the ground, Amber literally felt something about him calling to her very being. Like there was someone trapped in his body, trying desperately to get free, trying to reach to her.
And before she knew what she was doing Amber told the guards to put him in her home.
In her own home. . .
It was the first time a male laid in her bed, it's not like she hadn't bedded anyone in her awfully long life. It's just that Amber hadn't allowed a single male with whom she had sexual relations in her home. And not a single male in her bed.
This Warrior King was the first one to have the honor of experiencing what Amber's bed felt like. Although she didn't know him somehow she knows that he must be a warrior because no regular Lycan was strong enough to pass the storm.
It wasn't possible but this creature had passed the storm and then he stumbled in her Queendom. On top of that, he bought a companion, Alive. . .
There were two possibilities. One, they both must be strong enough to survive in the wasteland and if that's the possibility than Amber needs to upgrade her shields because if they can make it up to here than anyone can.
Two, they must be guided here by a lost soul. Amber shuddered at her thought. Growing up in this wasteland she had met more than one of them. It's funny how they are called lost but they show the path to people who are lost out there. In this wasteland there are a few creatures that help, these Lycans were lucky that a lost soul found them and it wasn't evil like the others.
Lost souls are basically the people that were brutally killed but something from this world still keeps them bound to this world and their mortal life.
It could be anything... An unfulfilled wish, a place, an object or any other thing. These souls can't find peace. So to experience a little peace they help those in such an agony that match their own. . .
So the question arises that if a lost soul showed them this path then what agony this beautiful creature had endured who was sleeping in front of her eyes.
What was the lost that he had endured that left him in so much pain. . . Amber had a sudden feeling to soothe him, to comfort this stranger but on the other hand, she was so frustrated by her unanswered questions.
Amber's desire to comfort this broken man disturbed her to a great degree~
He was handsome but not in a sophisticated way. He was a hard warrior type guy. Although he was hurt that didn't make him any less appealing. There were miles of muscles on his body. It felt like his body was sculpted by a stone.
Even laying unconscious in her home he looked like a God with his high cheekbones, sharp jawline and strong nose. Amber wanted to know what color his eyes contained.
How will it feel to have his chapped lips on her soft ones?
How his rough hands will feel on her body. . .?
There was something about him that was calling to a part of her soul. Amber can feel the energy coming out of his skin. But the most interesting part was that when she had tried to restrain him and his fellow with her powers, while her powers worked on the other guy it didn't work on him.
Maybe because he was a King and he must have some voodoo thing on himself that didn't let her powers work on him.
Nevermind!
It doesn't matter if she can't use her powers on him, she can use it on his fellow and while doing that she will make it violent enough to give him an idea of what she's capable of.
Because if you can't defeat them with your strength make them believe that they are already defeated by deceiving or whatever it takes. . .
It was weird that when Amber had touched the king's hand, all the cuts and bruises that were marking his almond-colored skin healed instantly which alarmed Amber to a great degree.
She had healing abilities but if her restraining order wasn't working on him than how the hell was her healing power worked on him. She didn't even want to heal him but her powers worked on their own.
And if that was not enough tension for her, the bitchy sister of this hulk was definitely making it hard for Amber to not to kill her every time when she opened her whiny mouth.
But for now Amber needed to focus on this King. She will deal with the princess later, who was currently unconscious in the underground guarded chambers.
The energy Amber had used in commanding these Lycans had really drained her and she knew if she didn't take a good rested sleep then she would damage her health more than her present health status. But the Dark King that was resting in her bed was making it difficult for her to sleep.
And on top of that the voice in her head was screaming at her to touch him. To stake a claim on him.
Amber didn't want to touch him but her feelings and the Bitchy voice in her head got the better of her judgment. The voice in her head was telling her that this warrior belonged to her.
After a guilty look around Amber touched the muscular canvas of his body and watched in fascination as his body started to heal under her touch.
Her hands shook as she trailed her fingers on his collar bone and slowly started tracing them towards the south.
Amber watched in fascination as his muscles rippled and dove in response to her touch. When she reached just below his eight packs, Amber noticed the bulge in his pants which was on the verge of bursting out of his damn pants.
Holy Mother of Dark Gods!!!
Amber's eyes snapped towards his face only to find his heated stare fixed on her face.
Deep blue eyes with flickers of golden were staring at her. For the first time in her life, Amber felt self-conscious under this stranger's gaze. The way he was analyzing her, raised the hairs on the back of her neck.
Heat rushed to her face from being caught while exploring his body.
The strange King was still staring at her with a baffled expression. Then with a confused face, he started sniffing the air like a dog on a search party.
Soon his baffled and confused expression changed into a shocked one. . .
And this time when he turned his blue gaze on Amber, he had an element of surprise on his face.
She didn't understand what was happening, the way his expressions were changing gave Amber an idea that the Mighty Lycan King might be mentally retarded. . .
Firstly
Baffled. . .
Than came
Confusion. . .
Shock. . .
Surprise. . .
And now the latest one was
Acknowledgement. . .
He was currently looking at Amber with acknowledgment as if seeing her for the first time.
Blue eyes changed into molten golden ones~
With a growl, he pinned Amber on her own bed.
She knew what was happening. She was face to face with the beast of the Lycan King.
She shouldn't have toyed with him.
If Amber was at a strange place and would have woken with a man exploring her body she would have killed him without a second thought.
After waking up in foreign surroundings the beast must have recognized her as a threat, they all do...
Now Amber had two options, either she was going to get killed by him or she was going to kill him.
So she preferred the second option. Dismissing the voice in her head that was screaming at her to claim his lips. . .
Heart...
Soul....
Amber attacked the Mighty Lycan King. . . Head on!
Darach felt like he was trapped in a black tunnel, not knowing where to go or what to do. It has been like this for centuries. Darach was trapped in this darkness for centuries. No matter what he did, he can't just free himself from this misery.He was a coward~A coward who was given the little of King. He had the responsibility of the whole lycan race, the responsibilities of the whole kingdom were on his shoulders but he was royally neglecting them because deep down he knew that if he wasn't good enough to save his own mate than how was he supposed to protect the whole kingdom.From the past centuries, Darach has been doing one thing he was good at, running from his responsibilities.Running from this darkness that surrounds his very being. He just wanted a way out of it, a small light to pull his dark
If all your life you have waited for someone and suddenly they came in front of you, your first thought will be to touch them, to feel them, to know that they are really not just a fragment of your imaginations.That's what happened to Darach when his mate came in front of him. Darach became so busy in admiring her that he lost control of his beast who was hell bend on claiming her. Darach knew that he moved too fast.Actually, it was his beast who moved too fast. Centuries he had wasted in thinking that his mate was dead instead of hunting her just because a fucking Oracle said so. He should never have believed her. Darach got a clear idea now that why Oracles were considered mad beings. But aside from his mate, he can't dismiss that it was the Oracle who had told him the way of these wastelands. And Darach can sense a large number of Lycans here. Mayb
Frustration was all that Amber felt when she couldn't get the answers to her questions. Her life was becoming a puzzle.From the moment these lycan royalties had entered her Queendom they had only created problems for her and her devoted people.The lycans that once resided in the lycan king's territory were now her people but she knew that no matter what, he was their rightful king. It didn't matter that the human side of these lycans didn't consider him their king because the beast that resides within them knew that who was their king, their Alpha and if the beast commanded them to follow their king back to his land, to their mates, Amber will be powerless to do anything against him.Hell! It was difficult for her to shake his dominance off from her own self. She cursed her small lycan part that was submissive to the lycan king.Amber didn't know how bu
Amber had never known what mother's love felt like but she can bet on her left eye that the solace she felt in the Goddess's presence must be the same that one felt in a mother's. . .Amber had spent her early age in agony. Back then she had always thought that what was wrong with her, why couldn't her parents want her? What had she done to her own mother that she had hated Amber to a point of throwing her in the face of an agonizing death?It was the first thing Amber had asked for from the Goddess... Her true identity, the identity of the woman holding her when she was a baby. Amber still remembered when the Goddess had told her that woman was her mother and she was holding Amber for the last time.On that day Amber learned that not every girl needs a boy to break her heart because their parents have already done a fucking good job of breaking it into a million pieces.
Darach was on the verge of pulling the demon's head off his body. His tolerance was running low. For the hundredth time, Darach had asked the demon the whereabouts of his mate but the demon's lips were sealed. No matter what Darach said, the demon acted like Darach didn't even exist or as if Darach is a pest under his boot.Darach had never met someone so stubborn.Normally he would just give a look to anyone to have their mouth open but with this frustrating demon, Darach hadn't even able to know her name let alone any other information.Hell! Darach didn't even know his own mate's name, he made a mental note of changing that as soon as possible."If you don't know where she is then can you tell me where should I wait for her?" Darach asked again.Darach didn't know where she lived but the house he woke up in
People say that Love hurts~Love literally hurts. . .But no one told Amber that love can hurt a person even if he was not in love. Amber laid on the ground like a damaged doll. It was the first time someone had landed a successful blow on Amber and it fucking hurts. She can literally feel a bruise forming on the left side of her face.Amber lifted a hand to her lips, wiping the blood oozing from her busted lips.'So much for making the king fall for her.' Amber thought sarcastically.Amber made a mental note for not killing the lycan king. She reminded herself that a dead mate won't be able to cherish her.The bloody king had made her fall on her ass with just a mere punch. Amber cursed her power for not working on him. If the spell had worked, it would have been the king laying on the ground instead of h
Amber woke up to an empty bed. The cold sheets indicated that her mate left a while ago. The lycan was not where Amber wanted him.Grrrhhh...Amber just wanted him to be the first thing she touched in the morning but No! The king just can't keep his butt in bed while he waited for her to woke up or at least he could have woken her up with a lingering kiss on her cheek. Amber would have done it if she woke before him.Amber rolled on her front and sighed dreamily. Even the idea of the warrior king kissing her fluttered butterfly in her stomach.But Amber was already getting tired of this mate shit. The Goddess didn't say that Amber needed to work this hard to make this work.But on the bright side, Amber was not fatigued anymore. Her mate had lulled her into sleep. She had a peaceful sleep after so many weeks. She was healed and as goo
"Told you that I wasn't lying! Look at her!" Rome said dramatically to Rebecca.Amber looked at her mate and then at Rome and Rebecca. Darach had a worried look on his face. He was staring at Rebecca intensely as if trying to figure something out.Amber sighed, her friends aka family was really a killjoy. If they weren't disturbed by them than Amber was sure that she could have gained all the answers to her questions. But no, how can they let that happen?She can clearly see that just like Lucia, Darach didn't know a single thing about his kingdom and people. They are all bloody clueless.They have no fucking idea that how much abuse the lycan mates were enduring under their rule. They seemed clueless about the way women were treated in their kingdom. A kingdom which was a hell hole for women. A nightmare.Now Amber understood why the lyca
