Chapter 37

Mondrian

Valerie’s gaze flitted across our hands before it locked onto me, sharp and probing, as her lips curled into a faux smile— too bright to seem genuine. “Your grace, Is there something you need? Any of our amenities not to your liking?”

My face stayed neutral, I let Alpha Daniel go rising to my full height, “Nothing of such Valerie. Why do you ask?”

Her lips widened even more, her teeth bared, “ Oh nothing, I thought there was a problem, if there was you can always come to me.” She said, her gaze unwavering “ I am sure I can help you out.”

“Thank you for the offer, there's nothing I need. I had a few things to discuss with Alpha Daniel, which I have.”

“Like what?”

“Pardon” My brows arched as a small smirk grazed my lips.

“ What were you two discussing about?” she asks, her voice deceptively casual, her steps light as she walks deeper into the room.

Despite her cavalier attitude, there’s an edge to her tone. She is curious, she wants to know, to control.

  • Two Months: Desired By The Lycan’s King    Chapter 38

    Chapter 38 Ella The plan was in motion, it was finally time to act out the plan I'd been preparing ever since Christoff broke things off with me. Celene was finally going to pay. I could feel the rush of adrenaline pumping through my veins, whoever took a look at me at this very moment would see the look of excitement on my face. Celene would finally get what was coming to her, never mind Mondrian's insistence that Celene remained safe. “I'll make sure she is safe all right.” I murmured, an eery smile gracing my lips “Six feet underground where she'll be very safe.” As I trudged deeper into the woods, the venue of the trap getting closer. If I had any doubt before, the scathing words from my mother this morning had cleared it all. I watched down from the hall window as the soldiers stole glances at the sandy blonde girl, sitting by the pond. She sat watching a group of ducks playing by the pond, Although she seemed unaware of the attention she was given I knew better. Her pale

  • Two Months: Desired By The Lycan’s King    Chapter 39

    Chapter 39 Celene I walked along the familiar trail, as I breathed in the cool evening air letting the forest embrace me in its quiet. This was one of my many forms of escape, the familiar woods remained one of the places where I could find some peace, away from the chaos of that was my life. Away from the nosiness of Mondrian. As the sun began to wane my footsteps never faltered, I could always find my way no matter the time, a testament to how often I trailed this part. I force myself not to think about the other places I had once found peace, spoilt by one man—rather long-lived Lycan. Mondrian had found them all, I wasn't bothered by his persistence to get acquainted, but rather his insistence on saving me from myself that greatly annoyed me. My lips pursed as flashes of our conversation replayed. Who did he think he could save me? Why did he feel like I needed saving? Despite him not knowing anything he continued to forge on, putting me in danger. What would happen if

    Chapter 40 Mondrian pov “Damn it all to hell,” I cursed out into the dark, as flashes of green flitted through my eyes, as I hurried towards the location of the noise. Although Ella has sent the location of the ambush, on my arrival I had met no one, annoyance flooded my vein at her mistake. I rushed towards the clearing overhead, hoping that I was not too late. The moment I saw her, something snapped inside me. My nose flared as the scent of blood hit me, and my eyes locked on Celene, sprawled on the forest floor, her hand pressed to her side. The sight of her injury—a deep, purple bleeding gash, sent a wave of rage crashing over me. My vision blurred at the edges, fury boiled in my veins, as the group of werewolves looked on, scared. My teeth bared instinctively, the wolf in me clawed to the surface. “How dare you” I snarled, the words dripping with venom. A burly man, with a scar on his face stepped forward,hands up,with fear written on his face, “We didnt—” I dont wa

    Chapter 41 Celene pov “Argh I am so tired nikka,” my screams are muffled by my pillow, as I grieve over the past week's incident, “Each day grows more exhausting from the last. I just can't deal. I don't think I even want to leave my room ever again.” A soft chuckle escaped the speaker of my phone, as Nikka my one and only friend who had managed to escape this pack when she got mated to an Alpha said, ” Come on, it's not that bad Mondrian saved you. You are alive. I'm sure that's a silver lining.” “Silver lining?” I repeated, my emotions surged like an inferno, “What silver lining Nikka? I'm going crazy here. Everywhere I go, danger follows. One moment, I am going about my day, the next, I’m inches away from death. Whether it is a falling tree branch narrowly missing my head or a rogue wolf lunging at me from the shadows, there's always something happening. I am always on edge.” “That seems kind of odd, Despite your wicked stepmother Valerie's constant schemes and her rabid mons

    Chapter 42 Author pov I waited in my room, watching the sunset in a wonderful range of red hues as I sat perched on the edge of my seat. My heart raced, not a mix of fear and guilt, but also anticipation of what had happened a few hours ago. Celene had been hurt. Mondrian would soon come looking for answers, and I was prepared to give him answers—crafted for this very purpose. My door swung open, and I straightened, as I allowed my expression to shift into one of worry. Just as expected, Mondrian entered the room, his face dark with anger, his eyes sharp as they landed on me. “Ella,” he growled, his voice a low, dangerous rumble. I blinked up at him, all innocence. “Your Highness!” I greeted, my smile warm and welcoming. “Did everything go as planned?” The muscles in his jaw twitched, as I felt the weight of his glare. “What do you think you are doing? Playing with fire?” I tilt my head to the side my eyes wide to show my surprise, “Your Majesty, is something wrong? Have I o

    Chapter 43 Mondrian The smell of smoke hit me first. Thick, acrid, and choking. My senses flared instantly, heart raced at the thought of something so terrible happening. I pushed open the heavy doors of the palace office, where a few minutes ago I had been in a meeting with a few of my delegates, Valerie included. “What is going on?” Alpha Daniel said, his belly jiggled at each word as Valerie eyed the corner. “Probably just a small mishap.” She said we should head back inside. No one moved as the elders continued to stare at the smoke as they shuffled around, murmurs of their confusion filled the air yet none moved to find out more. My eyes narrowed as I gazed at budding flames licking at the far corners of the pack. Chaos erupted all around me—sentries and servants running, yelling, doing everything they could to contain the fire. “Alpha!” a voice called out towards Daniel, panicked and breathless. I spun around face to face the young wolf, his face ashen. “What happened?”

    Chapter 44 Mondrian The rhythmic pounding of my fists against the punching bag did nothing to dull the frustration gnawing at my insides. Two days have passed since the fire that had almost taken Celene’s life—two painful days of sitting on my toes as I waited for her to wake up. I couldn’t shake the image of her, pale and unmoving as she lay beneath the concrete pillar in what had once been her room. “Dammit,” I muttered under my breath, as I land one final blow on the bag before taking a step back, my chest heaving. I grabbed the towel hanging nearby and wiped the sweat from my face, but the tension between my shoulder blades remained. No matter how hard I punched or pressed, I couldn’t let it go. Not unless Celene somehow woke up from what healer Eric had termed a much-needed rest—more like a coma. Something wasn’t right about the, and I wasn’t going to sit back and the pack brushes it off like a simple accident. As I moved to check the time, the door to my personal t

    Chapter 45 Celene “Celene” I jumped at the sound of the familiar voice calling my name, my heart raced as I spun around, and my breath hitched in my throat. Mondrian stood by the doorway, his chest rose and fell with barely restrained intensity. “Gosh, you scared me,” I said, throwing him a small smile, as I stood wave of guilt for being caught ransacking his clothes flushed my skin red. His eyes hooded, with an emotion I couldn't not place. For a moment, both of us remained in silence. I pulled on a loose shirt I had found in his closet—his shirt. My cheeks grew red as I realized he had been staring at me. His gaze lingered on my skin, intense as it raked all over, as if greedy to take it all, it made my pulse quicken. I flushed under his scrutiny, as I battled not to let it affect me but I couldn't help but feel a pool on my lower stomach. It was excitement. “Mondrian, you are here” I breathed, the word escaped my lips before I could stop it. He stepped forward as he gr

    106 Celene I stalked out of the gym, my head pounding with words I wanted to say to Mondrian, words I was sure I would regret. Alera my wolf remained silent, but I could feel her nervousness within me. She too had been hurt by Mondrian's actions and she couldn't understand why he had done such a thing, after all his pursuit. A part of me wanted to ask why wanted to fall on my knees begging and screaming, wanted to listen to his explanations, but another part of me, the pride and ego refused. It was angry at his actions, his disregard for my body. With an angry growl I kicked up the dust before me, when that didn't calm my anger I stamped my feet into the dirt a couple more times When my head finally clears I realize, where I am standing, looking up I see the big wooden door, beautifully carved with the encryption ‘library’ sprawled before me. Heaving a sigh, I walked into the room, with thousands of books calling my name. My fingers trailed over the spines of the books, my mind

    Chapter 105 Mondrian I watched as Celene walked away, her posture stiff, her head held high, but I knew better. She was hurt and it was all my fault. I could understand her pain, after her countless refusals, I knew how it felt to be rejected by someone made for you. My eyes followed the swaying of her hip as I stood stuck deep in thought. My brows scrunched in a frown, my mind spinning as a war raged inside me, each side pulling me in opposite directions. I wanted to run after her, to explain why I had done what I did, to beg her to understand, but what was the point? What would change? Without evidence, it would just be empty words and broken promises. No. I couldn't waver now. I wanted her to see the man I was becoming for her love. But still, her dismissal rubbed me the wrong way, and I didn't know how to go about my feelings. I scoffed at my worries, who would believe that I, Lycan Mondrian king of a thousand pack had been tamed by a feisty woman? I clenched my fists,

    104 Mondrian Alex left with a huff, glaring at me as he made his way out. “Calm down Alpha.” he urges walking away. At the slam of the door, I flicked the files arranged on my desk away, but my chest heaving. Minutes passed and I was still riled up, I knew I needed to get some air, anything to calm down. Heading for the garden, I stopped at Celene's favorite spot, my mind weighing heavily on me when I overheard some voices. They belonged to Ethan and Daniel, guards of the pack, I am about to snap at them when I hear Celene’s name curious I listen in. “Did you see that fight, Daniel? I mean it was crazy!!” “Yeah, who would have thought Pecan that crazy woman would have her arse beat.” “That's exactly my thoughts. I never knew Princess Celene had it in her. She always looked so meek.” “Of course, she can't be meek, she's the Alpha, Luna to be. She has to have a hidden power right.” “You are so right any one the Lycan king chooses has to be extraordinary. I can't wait for

    Chapter 103 MONDRIAN P.O.V “ I can’t believe you disobeyed my order Celene, I asked you to stay in your room, and not to go out training, but I find you having a one-on-one match with Pecan?” “How could you defy me, woman”. I asked angrily. “You do not defy me, “I am your alpha”. I said, shaking her, I was so enraged that I could not see the fear in her eyes or the way she was trembling when I touched her. Maybe I had been too harsh on her, she just turned, and that alone can be overwhelming, i was about to apologize to her when she flared up, “How dare you Mondrian, You treat me like I am some kind of weakling,” “I am your mate, I should be able to protect you and this pack in the best way possible.” “And if you, my alpha and mate, can't see this, then what am I doing here?” She retorted. Didn’t see that coming, this Woman has got some guts, Not many people could talk back to me, after the manner and way I spoke. I was impressed, it means she cannot be pushed around ea

    102 Celene Pecan's eyes gleamed with triumph as she stepped back, gesturing toward the sparring ring. “Finally. Let’s see what you’re made of.” As I followed her to the circle, my heart pounded in my chest. I knew this was a bad idea, but I couldn’t back down now. I had to prove, if not to Pecan, then to myself, that I wasn’t weak. The soldiers around us stopped what they were doing, turning to watch as Pecan and I squared off. One of them moved to say something, but Pecan turned him away, warning them all to back off, before turning towards me. She looked confident, her posture relaxed, while I felt the weight of pity eyes on me, judging me before I’d even begun. “Ready?” Pecan asked, her smirk never fading. I nodded, swallowing hard. “Good. Let’s see if last night wasn't a fluke.” The moment Pecan lunged at me, I realized just how unprepared I was. Her movements were quick, precise, and entirely too confident. Truly worthy of being one of Mondrian's most revered warriors, I

  • Two Months: Desired By The Lycan’s King     Chapter 101

    101 Celene The thoughts of the previous night kept replaying in my head, couldn’t stop replaying the moment in my mind. Mondrian walked away from me, his face a myriad of emotions that I could place, walking away from me after that hug that left me wanting him to stay, yet too embarrassed to do anything. What was that all about? It wasn’t like him to act so cold, Mondrian always made sure to savor every single moment of our time together. That hug should have lasted for quite a while before breaking it with a kiss. Although I tried not to think too deeply about his actions, I couldn't help but feel his walking away had to do with the promise he had made to me. Did he not want to do it or was he having second doubts? The thought ate at me all night. Twisting and turning in bed all night, pulling the blanket tighter, then throwing it off entirely. Sleep eluded me no matter what I did or how hard I tried. My mind kept circling back to him— his expression, him walking out without so

    100 Mondrian I stepped into my office to find Alex my beta and best friend waiting for me, his arms folded and his face set in his usual calm and unreadable expression. Although It was his usual look, but something about it annoyed me. Maybe it was the tension in the air, or maybe it was the way my own guilt over Celene—walking away from her—still clung to me like a heavy cloak. Either way, I wasn’t in the mood for pleasantries. “Alex,” I greeted curtly, nodding as I took my seat at the head of the desk. "Alpha," he responded, his tone even, but I caught the flicker of Amusement in his eyes. He knew something. Before I could say anything more, Arlen walked in, his boots clicking against the floor as he joined us. His young face showed none of the excitement he usually eluded instead the shadows under his eyes and the way he sighed told a different tale. It was not surprising, considering the mission I’d sent him on. "Arlen," I said, leaning forward. "Any News young one? Are t

    99 Mondrian “What the heck was that?” Zara’s sharp voice followed me as I turned towards the stairs leading to my office. “Do you even realize how harsh you were?” she asked, walking in tandem with me, arms placed hastily on her hips. I stopped mid-step and turned to her, my jaw tightening. “I was harsh for a good reason.” My voice was cold and fiand rm, Zara’s eyes held mine, “She disobeyed me, Zara. She could’ve gotten hurt or worse.” “She didn’t, though,” she countered, her voice calm but firm, her arms crossed across her chest. “And yelling at her like that isn’t going to make her listen to you. If anything, you’re just going to push her further away. I thought you wanted her to fall for you. This isn't the way Mondrian.” Her words hit me like a blow to the chest. I hated to admit it, but she was right. The look on Celene’s, face when I had scolded her—hurt, betrayed, and shocked kept replaying in my mind. It made me feel sick to my stomach. The thought of Celene shifting

    98 Celene I stared at her, my hand still raised, my chest heaving. The energy I’d felt when I had merged with Alera surged through me, I could feel the electric tension as my hands trembled from the rush. What the heck was that? My mind whirling as It struggled to process what had just happened. Pecan’s stunned face didn't change as she stared at me, and I couldn’t shake the image of her flying. Albeit satisfying that should have been impossible, I shouldn't be able to do that…not with Pecan who had a place in Mondrian's army, rumors about her slaying mountains of men had welcomed me on my very first day, despite her nasty attitude, she was someone Mondrian had acknowledged and I had thrown her with a flick of my wrist. The hallway grew eerily silent, for a second it all felt like a dream, but my heartbeat pounded loudly in my ears telling a different tale. Then, out of nowhere, Zara appeared, her face full of worry as she hurried toward me. “What happened? I heard a scream,” s
