Chapter 36
Lucas POV:
I quickly shifted my weight from Veronica's body and climbed down the bed. She had a disappointed look on her face. Her hands clasping over her breasts.I still wanted more of her body but heeding my mom's call was of utmost importance. "Vee, you should get dressed. I have to meet with the queen in a few minutes," I said calmly as I pulled up my trousers. My erection was beginning to go down."Seriously? C'mon Lucas, you're torturing me with denial," Veronica whined, reluctantly standing from the bed and picking up her clothes."Do you expect me to choose you over the queen?" I retorted sharply. Veronica's expression melted and I could see a glint of sadness in her eyes. "Alright. Vee, we have all the time in the world. Right now, I should go and meet the queen so she doesn't suspect anything between us."Her eyes suddenly lightened up as she quickly threw her clothes on and placed a soft kiss on my lips. "I'll see you later thRelated chapters

Lucas POV:As I stepped into the dimly lit Sinema club, the familiar jazz melodies greeted me, blending with the clinks of glasses and murmurs of conversation. I could immediately feel the pulsating beats of the music reverberating through the air. The dimly lit space was adorned with glimmering fairy lights, casting a romantic ambiance. My eyes scanned the room, searching for Parrish, and I finally spotted him sitting alone at the bar, sipping on a glass of red wine with an enigmatic smile on his face.I made my way over to him, and he greeted me with a warm smile. "Lucas, my man! Glad you could make it," he said, raising his glass in a toast."Wouldn't miss it for the world," I replied, clinking my glass against his. "So, what's the occasion? You called me out of the blue."Parrish took a sip of his wine, his piercing blue eyes glinting with mischief. "Well, you know how I love my little adventures. I've been getting some interesting intel about
The Alpha's Rejected Mate Chapter 38
Veronica's POV:It's been over two weeks since I had sex with my stepbrother, Lucas, and since then it's been a plethora of daily sexual intercourse. We'd fuck anywhere– his room, in the kitchen, my room, the living room, the garage, in the car– as long as no one was in sight. On a particular night, Malia almost caught me massaging his bulge under the dining table during dinner. It was such a narrow escape but it didn't slow down our pace. We still made love with each other recklessly.Lucas professed his endless love for me whenever we made love but he acted cold and distant whenever we were in the presence of my dad or other people. I guess he just puts up a façade so that our actions don't get suspicious.It feels exhilarating to know that the person I love deflowered me and it felt like that was the best decision I've ever made. As I stood in front of the grand mirror in my lavish bedroom, adjusting the final details of my royal attire, I cou

Veronica's POV:"Chloe, watch your words." I heard my dad growl, his expression was aggressive and I could see his eyes glow red. "Veronica is part of the royal family and you must treat her as one. If you feel uncomfortable about her presence in the palace then you should leave and go back to your pack."Malia was taken aback by Tyler's words. "My king, isn't that a bit harsh? Besides Chloe was just concerned about your health.""Concerned?" Tyler blurted out angrily. " Where was she when I lay unconscious on the hospital bed? She was parading around with her uncultured beta wolf friends and showing off entitled wealth." It was obvious that my dad already had a pent-up grudge against Chloe and couldn't help but explode at the slightest inconvenience that just happened. Chloe bowed her head in shame as my dad went on with his tirade."You should teach your mother how to act like royalty and if the settings of this home do not sit right w
The Alpha's Rejected Mate Chapter 40
Lucas POV:I dismissed Matilda immediately and headed to the palace. My little hide-and-seek game has been exposed and I had to find a plausible excuse that would sweep her off her feet. Turning towards the hallway that led to my room, I met Parrish coming in the opposite direction."Hey man, what are you doing in the palace?" I asked, surprised to see him walk into the palace on his own freewill because Parrish wasn't the political kind of person "Your Majesty," Parrish greeted. It felt odd because he barely speaks to me formally. "What the fuck is going on. You know what, let's go inside my room and talk," I quickly said, gesturing at my room's door. We walked into my room and Parrish mouthed a 'what the fuck' in surprise as he looked around the large and sparsely furnished room."So much simplicity for a Prince, yeah?" Parrish mocked, a wide grin spread across his face. I inhaled deeply as I took off my training clothes and

Veronica's POV:It was getting dark and after I spent an hour crying out my heart, I headed back to my room. As I got into my room, I walked into the bathroom and slumped into the bathtub, and sank into the warm water that seemed to briefly wash away my sorrows. I couldn't believe that Lucas could betray me in such a way. I loved him with every fiber of my being and offered my body to him on a platter but he chose to be with Matilda, a mere pack warrior.Anger boiled in my stomach as I recalled the events of the day. I blinked away the tears from dropping. I have cried a lot today and I was having a throbbing headache. I heard a soft knock on the door but I felt too numb to lift myself from the bathtub. I had found solace in the little confinement of the bathtub and I wasn't willing to leave yet."Who's there?" My voice croaked. Somehow, I expected it to be Lucas. Despite how much he hurt me, I still wanted to see him again and maybe hope that he will apol
The Alpha's Rejected Mate Chapter 42
Lucas' POV:I couldn't believe my eyes when I stared at the message notification from Matilda which read:"I know all your dirty little secrets with Veronica and how you and the queen intend on killing Veronica. I'm sure you don't want anyone else to hear your secrets. You know where to find me"My heart pounded against my chest as I walked out of Veronica's room and through the dimly lit palace hallway, ignoring the confused stare I got from Veronica's lady-in-waiting. I walked to my room and picked up my car keys and a pair of white joggers. My stomach knotted in anger and fear and as I headed to the garage, I aggressively brushed past a palace servant and the tray he held in his hand came crashing on the floor but I didn't spare him a glance.I climbed into my car and kicked the engine to life, my heart thumping loudly as I gripped the steering wheel tightly and drove out of the palace gates. I got to the entrance of the dense forest where I an
The Alpha's Rejected Mate Chapter 43
Matilda's POV:As I clung to Lucas in the branch of the sycamore tree, the darkness of the dense woods enveloped us. Our naked bodies pressed close, seeking comfort and solace in each other's arms. We had been caught in a moment of passion, but now we were hidden, waiting, listening.Footsteps approached, and my heart pounded in my chest. Lucas and I exchanged worried glances, our breaths coming out in shallow gasps. We strained our eyes to see through the darkness, and as the figure drew closer, I recognized him - Parrish, Lucas' friend.My grip on Lucas tightened as we watched in horror. Parrish was dragging a smaller guy by the scruff of his neck. I could barely make out the guy's face, battered and bruised from the blows Parrish was landing on him at intervals. Parrish suddenly transformed into his wolf form, his fur bristling with rage, and the smaller guy followed suit. The two wolves circled each other, growling and snarling, their eyes gl
The Alpha's Rejected Mate chapter 44
Veronica's POV:I saw Matilda heading in my direction and I couldn't stand the thought of acting inferior before her. I won't let her snatch Lucas from me. I walked up to her with a forceful smile on my face."Hi, Matilda, it's been a while," I said, stretching my hand for a handshake. She was taken aback by my sudden friendliness and stared at me in surprise. After a few minutes of hesitation, she composed herself and genuflected briefly."Your Highness," she greeted, bowing in respect."Where's the King?" I asked, looking at her with disdain. My intentions were simply to make her feel small and insignificant in every possible way. "He's in a meeting with Jason," she replied, her voice barely above a whisper. "I'd be on my way now if you don't mind.""Sure, you should leave right away," I retorted, stepping aside as she brushed past me in a hurry. "So you don't try to seduce the Prince again."She paused in her tracks
