Natasha’s POV

The room was too big, too bright and too soft for a girl like me.

The door shut behind us with a quiet thud and I just stood there. Still barefoot. Still unsure. The two maids walked in ahead of me like it was nothing. Like this kind of room didn’t swallow you whole. They didn’t glance back at me as they opened the tall wardrobe, setting down the folded clothes they brought. Another set of hands dropped a small towel on the wide bed. The bed alone looked like it could fit five people. The sheets were white and clean, the kind of clean that smelled like flowers and money. I didn’t move.

“This is your room,” one said without looking up.

She didn’t need to add “for now.” I already felt it.

“Freshen up. The King will send for you soon.”

That made my stomach twist. I stayed quiet. Just nodded a little, hoping they’d leave quickly. They didn’t wait around for questions. They turned and walked out, soft shoes brushing against the marble floor, skirts swaying gently with each st

    Lucien's POVNo matter how long I soaked myself in that water, I didn't seem to find peace.I was damn restless.I finally finished shower and quickly dressed up. I headed to see Natasha first and then I continued towards my office.I could already sense the strangeness in the atmosphere even right after I stepped out of my room, but my mind was too restless to be fixed on it.Nevertheless, now I noticed really well and it was disturbing.It was like the guards were stiffer and stood straighter this morning, you know that way that makes it look as if they were keeping a secret.It didn't take Long for me to realise what it was.Draven SNR's car was parked in the garage.How long has it been there?I hadn't been paying attention before, or maybe it wasn't there before. All I knew was that I didn't go towards that area at first. My driver had already set my car for me before I even started heading out.Once the driver had parked, I stepped out and asked the guards around if truly, Drave

  • When My Mate Chose Another, the Lycan King Chose Me   157: Summoned

    Lucien's POVI stamped the last file on my desk for today with weary eyes. All my body told me that I needed to pause, or at least to rest, but I couldn't afford to do that.Some packs had reached out to us seeking help, though a lot of them withdrew their proposals after the whole incident; however, a good number of them were still at my desk. I made sure to weigh every one of them carefully before passing my judgment.I was done for today, but my eyes still swept across the stack of files for tomorrow and the days to come. I wasn't anywhere close to completing and approving all of that, not even in a month's time.But amidst all of the work I had down for me to do, I couldn't stop myself from thinking if she had woken, if she had asked for me.I kept checking my phone time without a number, just to see if the nurse in charge of her room was calling to say that she had woken up and needed to see me.Unfortunately, none of that happened.I stood up, tired and disoriented.I'd barely h

  • When My Mate Chose Another, the Lycan King Chose Me   156: If she dies

    Lucien’s POVOne week has never been this long in my life before. And in this past one week, I knew nothing like peace or even sleep.I couldn’t sleep. I couldn’t even lie still for more than a few seconds because every time I closed my eyes, all I saw was her body so pale and almost too still on that bed like she didn’t have the strength to fight for life anymore. The doctors kept coming in and out, whispering to each other, shaking their heads, trying to clear out the wolfsbane that refused to leave her system.I don't think I've ever been this scared of losing someone since after my dad.The fact that I couldn't do anything to speed up the process was even more annoying. At this point, I felt like all the power and authority I had was so damn useless. But even at that, I did everything in my power to get her the best of doctors.Even though it all ended up in the same result."You're majesty, she barely survived this. Any normal Lycan or wolf would have passed on after a few days,

  • When My Mate Chose Another, the Lycan King Chose Me   155: Not even once

    Lucien’s POVThe moment his words rolled out, something inside me tightened. He was standing there like he hadn’t just dragged my mate across half the damn mountains, like he hadn’t laid his filthy hands on her, like he hadn’t been hovering around her for weeks with that stupid look in his eyes. Damon always had this irritating calm on his face, even now when blood was still on his shirt and Natasha’s scent.My hands were already curling into fists. I didn’t even think about it. I didn’t care where we were or who was watching. I wanted to grab him and slam him into the damn wall for everything… for touching her, for talking like he knew her more than I did.But before I could take that one step toward him, the door swung open so hard the light from inside spilled across the hallway.We both turned immediately.The doctor stepped out, her mask pulled down, her hands still shaking a little. That was the first thing that messed with my head.“How is she?” I asked at the same time Damon d

  • When My Mate Chose Another, the Lycan King Chose Me   154: I'm going to die

    Damon's POV Anger rose from within me at the sound of his name. Of course, what was I expecting? I removed her hand from my body like she was some kind of leach and immediately got into the driver's seat. We drove for quite a while, yet we saw no one. This is so frustrating. I have to get to the Kingdom... This place was really far and looking back at her, I wasn't sure if she was going to make it through the drive. "What do I do now?" At this point, everywhere was already very dark and there was still no one on the road.I could no longer hear the sound of her heavy and struggling breaths, I got really scared. "Natasha?" I called. For a couple of seconds, there was no response. "I'm going to die, right?" She finally managed to say after a while of silence. The words caused my chest to freeze for a couple of seconds. "Do you say that, I'm here trying so hard that you don't die on me." That little moment when I turned to talk to her, I didn't notice when another car began t

  • When My Mate Chose Another, the Lycan King Chose Me   153: Why are you here?

    Damon's POV I knew Sonia was damn serious, but I also know that Natasha had little life in her and she could lose it if I don't act fast and smart."Try it and breathe your last!" The words came out of my mouth before I could even think.Sonia hissed in frustration, now pointing the gun at me. "Why are you even here?" She barked. "Don't tell me that you're here because Lucien sent you?" "That's one pathetic thing for anyone to think." I started. "The reason for my being here is none of your business. Give me Natasha and let's get this over with!" The last part was more like a command. "Do you think she would automatically fall for you if you save her?" I knew she was trying to get into my mind and play with my reasoning, but I wasn't going to give her that chance."Sonia!" Her name left my mouth in a low and threatening growl. I was losing my patience. "You're supposed to be with me in this, bring them down and clear the way for us to take over the throne." "Damon... This is your
