Lahat ng Kabanata ng Second Chance: Mated To My Lycan King Brother-In-Law: Kabanata 61 - Kabanata 70

Marissa POV.It’s been a few weeks since everything that happened. Life has returned to normal, well, as normal as can be. Damien has been building a bond with Athena and he found his second chance and I couldn’t be happier for him. Her name is Roxy, and she is a lovely woman. I have noticed the changes in him not just with Athena but with his mate and I’m happy he is happy.Robert and I are preparing to head to his kingdom. His father has summoned us. King Morpheus Alexander. According to Robert, his father wants to meet me. No, his father wants to enforce their outdated traditions. Well, he is in for a shock, because I won’t bow to them.Morpheus is disgusting. He believes Lycan’s are far more superior to werewolves, but we outnumber Lycans 1,000 to 1 and he knows that. Strength in numbers, so I can see my first encounter with this pompous asshat will be memorable, more so for him than me.There is also this mating ritual which I am not happy about. It is utterly degrading to all in

Marissa POV.I look at Morpheus and smirk as I let go of Robert’s hand and take a step closer to this vile being in front of me; he does not know who he is trying to disrespect. Lita stands to his left, and she smirks at me, knowing I won’t stand for his shit and she is right.“Is that so? Well, looks like I won’t be queen then.” I say as I tilt my head higher, not taking my eyes off his. He sneers at me.“However, I don’t think you are fit to call yourself king or mate, don’t you agree?” his nostrils flare and I know he is pissed.“Choose your words wisely, wouldn’t want anything to happen to you.” I chuckle darkly at him. Robert steps closer to me, but I hold my hand up and he stops.“You are a hypocrite. I was saying to Robert how beautiful the carving on the throne room door was before we entered here. Yet, you insult me with that statement. Tell me Morpheus. Do you think you are fit to be king?” I step closer to him as I feel Zarah push to the surface, making my golden eyes glow

Marissa POV.No sooner had Morpheus submitted to Robert than word had spread of what the king had done. Some were excited about the change in leadership, others were not mainly the elders who said it was outrageous and the proper protocol should have been enforced.Protocol my ass. The elders are supposed to not only help with advising the king; they are also to maintain the rules and safety of the pack. You can’t do one without the other. From what Lita and Anya told me, the elders only did what they thought was best for them. Of course, it helped that these disgusting men also had access to the king’s harem and funds from the treasury.If I’m being totally honest, this kingdom is vile. Robert has his work cut out for him in bringing order and stopping the corruption that runs deep here. Morpheus was a weak king. He was only doing what he thought was best for him and nobody else.It has been weeks since we arrived and I miss home, miss Athena and I miss my mate. Robert has been busy

Marissa POV.“I’m sorry, my Regina. Let me make it up to you.” I wanted nothing more than to thrash and tell him to leave me alone. But being in his arms and his scent wrapping around me in a cocoon of familiarity and safety, I needed to feel him, all of him.“I need you Robert, you are never around anymore. You need to find balance. What am I to you?” I search his eyes as he furrows his eyebrows. His striking grey eyes pierce right into my soul. I take a shuddering breath, biting my lower lip as his grip tightens. His nostrils flare.“You are my queen, my mate, my soul. I promise I will work on spending more time with you.” I move back from him. My head and heart are in a battle. My head screaming at me to walk away but my heart fighting right back telling me to stay.“Let me help, give me a purpose of being here. Not just someone who warms your bed.” He pulls away and places me on my feet. His hand reaches to cup my cheek and I move back slightly.“Is this what you see yourself as?

Marissa POV.“Marissa, wait!” I stop as Michael and I are about to enter the car. I turn to see Robert jogging after us.“I’m coming with you.” I raise an eyebrow at him. Is he doing this because he wants to? Or is it because I’m here with Michael? Robert takes my hand in his and kisses the back of it. I narrow my eyes at him. I’m not convinced that he is here to genuinely spend time with me. But beggars can’t be choosers.“I thought you were busy?” I ask, trying to hide the smile on my face. He strokes my cheek and I fight the instinct to lean into his touch. I’ve been here before and I know how this will end. He feels guilty. He will no doubt spend the day and maybe a few more after this, but then it will go back to what it has been like since we arrived here.“I know I haven’t made much time for you.” I roll my eyes and he sighs.“Ok, I haven’t made anytime for you and for that I am sorry. I promise I will be by your side more, unless it’s an absolute emergency that requires my imm
