Chapter 18

Danika

When I opened my eyes, I was surprised to see the Lycan King beside my bed.

I nearly gasped but Annika took control of my hand, clamping it over my mouth.

'He's asleep,' she whispered.

Slowly, I sat up, careful not to make a sound. Although, I could already hear my heart thumping loud in my ears.

'Why is he here?' I asked.

I felt Annika shrug.

His scent, mint and fresh rain, filled my room. I felt my body relax with the smell. My eyes travelling to his sleeping face. For the first time since I saw him, he looked more peaceful.

In fact, he looked much more handsome now that he's not frowning or being grumpy at all. I giggled to myself when his eyes snapped open and he looked straight at me.

"What's so funny?" he questioned and straightened his back. His grumpy mode is back, unfortunately.

I quickly dropped my gaze to my lap.

"Oh, nothing your highness," I muttered under my breath, feeling disappointed.

Maybe I was dreaming when I though he looked peaceful, because h

  • The Luna's Trial   Chapter 28

    Chapter 28DanikaThe cave stood before us, wide and black, the air spilling out damp and cold. It reminded me of a mouth waiting to swallow us whole. A shiver crawled over my skin, but I forced my shoulders back and lifted my chin.“The rules are simple,” Theodore said. His voice carried through the crowd, sharp enough to silence the murmurs. “You will each enter alone. There is no light, no torch, no map. Your wolf is your guide. If you want to see daylight again, you must trust your instincts.”The candidates exchanged looks, some whispering complaints under their breath. Clarissa made sure her voice was loud enough for me to hear. “This should be easy for those of us who aren’t coddled by the King’s family.”I ignored her and fixed my attention on Theodore, though my stomach knotted tighter.“The first candidate,” he announced, scanning the group, “Clarissa.”Of course.She walked forward like she was stepping onto a runway, tossing her golden hair over her shoulder. Two guards

    Chapter 27Danika“Why are you here?” I pulled my brows together.“Keeping an eye on you.” He shrugged, taking a step forward and into the light.I raised a brow at his answer. “Why?”“King’s orders. Don’t want you passing out during the trials.” He smiled smugly, making me roll my eyes at him.“Getting comfortable now, are we?” he chuckled, and I shot him a look, pressing my lips into a line.He sat on my bed. Surprisingly, I didn’t really feel uncomfortable with his presence in my private space. It’s more like I wanted him to be here.Just then, his previous words resounded in my head.“I’m your mate.”Mate...Is it possible? But neither Annika nor Anya told me to confirm it.“From now on, I am appointed as your new personal bodyguard.” He suddenly said, snapping me out of my thoughts.“What?” I stood from the bed, gawking at him.“Bodyguard?”Liam nodded nonchalantly, as if it is a regular thing to be serving luna candidates as their body guard.I narrowed my eyes at him.“What?”“

    Chapter 26DanikaWaking up, I wasn’t sure why but my eyes were sore. I wracked my brain for the events that transpired before I’d fallen asleep. It was a blur but I remember vaguely, the Lycan King. His mouthwatering scent lingered in the corners of my head, and then another.Sandalwood and mint. Liam.Rubbing my eyes, I sat up.“Good morning!” I looked over at Love. She stood at the edge of my bed holding a tray of food. I spotted butter croissants and chocolate drink in there. It smelled so good my mouth watered.“Good morning.” I greeted back. She nodded and came over before setting up a small table in front of me.“The King ordered me to have your breakfast prepared in bed. It seems you passed out yesterday, too. Does this happen so often?” Love asked tenderly.“Uh, I guess.” I had to lie, unfortunately.Love nodded in understanding. Once she finished setting down the food, I looked down at the croissants. Suddenly, eyes popped up on each of them. I knew it was my imagination, b

    Chapter 25LiamI had just come down from the library, reading about twinsouls and the history behind them.The information overload made my nerves twitch and my brain swirl like a damn ice cream filling its cone.I walked towards my brother’s suite where I knew he would be at this time of the night. Right after dinner, he would head back to his room to work.However, as I neared the door, I stopped in my tracks.My brows furrowed.Why is Danika’s scent coming from this room?I couldn’t take it just as much as Kieran could not swallow the different possibilities and different scenarios that may be happening behind this door.Despite the fact that he shared a mate with Qinai (pronounced as Kenai by the way), his possessiveness over our mate is what’s preventing him from accepting a shared bond.“Mine!” Kieran growled and my eyes flashed red.Yeah, there is no way he would be capable of sharing our mate with our only brother.Gathering my bearings, I managed to pull back some sense of s

  • The Luna's Trial   Chapter 24

    Chapter 24SilasGoddess, she’s fucking beautiful.Her long, platinum, almost-white hair flowed down her breasts in beautiful waves. Her skin flawlessly white and supple soft under my thumb, stroking her shoulder as I pulled her against my chest.She’s perfect.Goddess, she is.But the truth is, no matter how perfect she can be for a mate, it is not the same for a luna. The duties and responsibilities that only a luna can carry may be too much for a delicate woman like her to bear. I could not fathom the pain she would go through if she is ever put in that position. It is why a trial has been set to ensure that the luna will be the right luna for the whole pack, and my kingdom.I will not force her to become luna simply because the fates had made a mistake in choosing an omega as my mate.“It is not a mistake.” My Lycan, Qinai, found it is well within his rights to defend the bond. But I know better.“This bond is a mistake committed by the goddess. She is wrong to give an omega such

    Chapter 23Danika“Congratulations, everyone.”With that, King Silas sent Theodore a small nod. I could have sworn his eyes flicked to me for a second before he turned around and walked away.The contestants swooned at the sight of him leaving, while I released the breath I didn’t know I had been holding for so long.“You have quite the stunning wolf out of all of us here.” A voice spoke from beside me, making me glance to it and saw another contestant with blonde hair and brown eyes. She’s a beauty, keeps to herself, and I have never heard her speak a word until now.“Thank you.”She extended her hand.“My name is Ashley.” I took her hand and squeezed it gently.Ashley seemed very kind and sweet. As we were exchanging a couple words, Perry jumped in with her own bubbly personality.The first trial ended and we were instructed to head back inside for dinner.Ashley, Perry, and I walked side by side into the pack house.Out of the corner of my eye, I saw a pair of glowing wolf eyes wat
