The Lycan King's Exiled Mate

Helena“WE CAN JUST COVER IT WITH SOME MAKE-UP.” The young female slaps her mother’s hand away after her mother had been faffing all morning to cover the bruise on her cheek. Under normal circumstances, we healed pretty fast, but not when the Alpha slapped you clear across the face!I pulled on the girl’s bedding to make sure it was straight and quickly moved out of her room. I still had to clean Alpha Liam’s room before I could leave for school, and I was sure that I would find it in an utter mess! From the looks of the girl I had just left, I knew he would be in a fowl mood this morning. I had to try and avoid him as long as possible.“There you are! You little bitch! Why hasn’t my room been cleaned yet?!” I closed my eyes and lowered my head. I couldn’t very well tell him that I was trying to avoid him! I knew that nothing I said would help. He would just take it as some kind of insult. I waited until he finished his rant and scurried away as soon as he walked off.I heard him laug

HelenaHours later, I was building a small fire inside a cave after cleaning the rabbit. I made sure that there were no trails nearby and that the cave had indeed been left deserted for a long time. There were no tracks around except for normal animals. I wouldn’t be able to make a home out of the cave since it was barely large enough for the night, but it would do for now.I really longed for a shower, but until I was sure that Liam and his bastards wouldn’t come after me, I had to hide my scent with mud. When I shifted to race after the rabbit, it clung to my fur like glue. Cleaning up would have to wait. I was finally on my own. I was free! My hopes and dreams were crushed, but I was free!The meat tasted incredible even if I didn’t have anything to season it with. It was my freedom meal. I thanked the moon goddess for the blessing even if I was still furious that she destined me to be mated to that bastard. After finishing the rabbit, I wished that I had found more, but at least i

LiamAfter the Lycan bastard and his men were satisfied that my entire pack was there, we were led out of our territory. I didn’t know if I would ever see my home again. I did, however, realize that my life would never be the same again. That was if I lived to see tomorrow. My mind drifted to Helena again as we were ushered through the thick brush of the forest and into a clearing not far from my territory border.It was a sad sight to see the moment we could all finally stop walking. All around us there were cages filled with more werewolves. What was this king planning?! Was he going to completely wipe our kind off the face of the earth?! Fear gripped my heart as I was shoved into one of the cages. I had only felt this fear once before.The day Helena left. The day she rejected me and I forced her to leave. That was the only time I ever felt this afraid.HelenaI noticed the rogue tracks getting closer and closer to my house, but when they disappeared again, I didn’t think about it

HelenaI didn’t care if he poisoned the food. I didn’t want to die, but it would be better than anything he had planned for me. Okay, so my opinion of mates was warped. Finding out that Liam was my mate was probably the worst experience of my life, although finding out the Lycan king was my second chance mate turned out to be a close second.“I came here because of werewolves like you.” He broke the silence and I frowned. What did he mean by that?! Did he come here because of rogues? Females being kicked out of their packs?! What the hell did I do that was so horrific that the Lycan king felt he had to take everyone prisoner?! When I didn’t say anything, he continued.“I heard stories of how some packs treated their lower ranked wolves badly.” He frowned as though he was straining to tell the story, and it piqued my interest. Did he also have a secret he wasn’t ready to share? I patiently waited for him to continue. “I myself lost someone important because of the greed of werewolves.”

HelenaAll of my things were there. Even the old blanket I found in one of the trash cans a couple of months ago. My fingers slipped over the books on the desk and as I ran through the list in my mind, I realized every single book was there. Nothing had been damaged. It seemed they had taken great care to bring my things to the camp and that was a little surprising.Especially after the way they treated me when they first showed up! I looked around the tent, and it was more luxurious than my little cabin. As my hand slipped over the soft material of the bed cover, I thought of how expensive it must have been, and I wondered if all the tents had the same bedding. I heard a male clearing his throat outside my tent and jumped.“Miss, the king would like to know if you want to take a bath.” He didn’t come in, but I felt incredibly self-conscious all of a sudden. The tent suddenly felt too open! The only way to get in was through the door, but if you really wanted to get in, you could simp
