All Chapters of The Lycan King and his Substitute Bride : Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

WRITER'S POV “Alpha Dante?” Alpha Gregory held the door, surprised. “What brings you to my abode?” “We are not supposed to meet today…” he added and looked past him expecting to see someone else. “We can no longer meet at our usual place. Derrick’s eyes are everywhere,” Alpha Dante uttered hastily as he let himself in. “Did something happen?” Alpha Gregory questioned signaling to one of his servants to bring them a drink. “You should be grateful to me,” Dante said and plopped down in the nearby seat. “We have been followed. Our meeting spot is no longer safe.” “I knew it. We would have been foolish to not expect it. I just didn't expect he would be moving this fast. But…how did you find out?” Alpha Dante looked up, a smirk playing at his lips. Derrick had always discovered any spy he placed in his house. What usually saved him was the oat he always made the men take. They always swear to rather bite their tongue to death than to ever reveal his name. Of course he always

Standing in the balcony of the second floor of the building, Derrick looked down over the heads of the women. As much as he wanted, he couldn't get a good look at their faces. It was practically impossible considering the distance. But even if he were to be closer to them, it was almost impossible to detect his enemies amongst them–which was actually what he wanted more. He blamed Damian and Ethan for putting him up to this and wasting his precious time. The main mastermind he was seeking for was most likely not present. “Women of Harrow Wood! You want me to prove that the Luna is truly my wife and we are not having a fake marriage. Then so be it. To prove the sincerity of our marriage, I am declaring a week holiday for everyone. On the seventh day, we shall be having a celebration! Bring your families along!” “We want to know her identity! She is a murderer! She murdered Laura!” Someone screamed from the crowd. Derrick squinted at the screamer. He couldn't get a better view

“What is the next step? His men are coming after me… they are searching all over the Pack for me…they will find me and kill me…”“Stop acting like a sissy!” Alpha Dante lashed out at the fidgeting reporter. He turned to Alpha Gregory and eyed him. He had told him to find a good reporter. Where did he find such a scaredy cat? “Look , Mr Graven, you need to calm down and let me think–”Mr Graven spun, eyes red with fury. “I can't hide in your house forever! The king has eyes everywhere. He can find me here and kill me! You are asking me to calm down? Because it isn't your bloody name that is plastered all over the newspaper as a fucking wanted man!”“I said shut your mouth!” Alpha Dante snarled. “Don't ask me to keep calm! Okay fine….You know what. I'm done with this and you both. You are the ones at a disadvantage now. I can go to the king and tell him everything you have done. You paid that woman to lead the protest and you made me write that report!” Graven sneered, his red shot e

“And voila! We have a schedule!” Rick released a satisfied moan. Derrick collected the card and had a look. He shrugged and handed it back to him. “What? Not to your taste?”asked Rick frowning. “It's alright. It's just for the public anyway. Send it across to my wife.”“Huh?!” Both Rick and Damian gasped at the same time. “What is it?” Derrick frowned at both their natural syncing and show of surprise. “You just called her your wife!” Rick and Damian bellowed at the same time again. Derrick tried to retrace his speech. Realizing he actually did call Lia his wife, he felt a sudden rush of heat to his ears. “I didn't,” he denied rising to his feet and ignoring Rick and Damian's lingering smirk. “You did!”“I didn't.”“You did.”“I didn't.”“You did–”“My Alpha, you have a guest,” a guard announced. “Oh, a guest? Great!” Derrick exclaimed. Grateful for the opportunity as he departed the room shutting his ears and eyes to his friends taunts and smirks. “I will take this to the br

“Which hotel is that?” Derrick asked as he stretched his arm for Damian to button around his wrist. “The best hotel to ever be built in Harrow Wood Pack,” Rick responded a bit cockily. “I made the choice,” he added, his grin widening. Damian scoffed. “I would have picked a better one.”“Is everything ready?” Derrick ignored the bickering two and asked. “Everything is…well, except your wife whom you will have to ride down there with.”Derrick breathed. Maybe he had gone overboard. Perhaps the honeymoon wasn't really necessary. “There's a bit of a problem,” Rick began slowly. “The women…erm they seem kind of erm…excited—”“What do you mean excited?” Derrick asked.Rick pointed him to the window in response. Derrick marched to the window and saw a group of women, some children and youth standing around. They were chanting. Some of them had a placard that read “Happy honeymoon king and Luna! Give us a pup!”He quickly shut the curtains and clenched back a grunt. “Is the car ready?”“
