Semua Bab Bride Of The Lycan King: Bab 121 - Bab 130

Amber’s POV With my ability, I could somehow tell that there was just two people in the house. If there was someone else. Alpha Dale and Silas would sniff them out. The lake house was luxurious and it was very clear that Alpha Dale’s family weren’t just rich, they had a sort of wealth that encompassed the entire werewolf community. Everything was perfectly designed, and even though there wasn’t anything particularly flashy or extravagant, it still oozed money. Beta Trent moved through the house with a type of precision that only came from knowing the layout intimately. It made me wonder how often they spent time in any other properties. It couldn’t be that often since for the one year I was with them, we never went anywhere. In under a minute, we were staring Donn and Celia down in one of the many parlor rooms on the first floor. It hadn’t been that long since I last saw Donn, but he was unrecognizable now. His skin looked tight over his bones and he lost so much weight that he

Dale’s POV Although we only spent a few hours apart from each other, I was already missing my mate. When Izzy called to say that they were on their way back with Amber, I went down to the dinning hall to shop through the kitchen there, grabbing whatever supplies I could to prepare lunch for Amber. I already knew that my mate was easy to please when it came to meals though, thank the goddess, but I still put extra care in preparing the food for her. A loaded sandwich with trimmings had her beaming at me as I kicked the bedroom door shut behind me. I was making plans to move us to a more permanent bedroom since our sacred space had been tainted and desecrated by Mallory. Thinking about her now made me want to dig out her corpse and kill her again, just for the sake of it. I sighed as I saw Amber looking fucking adorable sitting in the middle of the giant bed in one of my old jerseys and sweatpants. I swallowed. Goddess, she was everything I wanted and needed. “Oh, I love bacon a

Amber’s POV A shiver ran down my spine as I thought about it. Alpha Dale was right. The relationship between the witch and Derrick did go far back. And she had told us that the witch was the same person as Moonstone’s priestess. I recalled a night I had seen them together at the edge of the forest. That night during the Culling which brought me together with Alpha Dale. They had seemed closer than usual but then, at the time, nothing had seemed off about it. Even now, nothing was off about it. Then why did it bug me? Beta Trent winced and nodded. “I feel guilty that none of us realized what the hell was going on. Donn was acting even more power-hungry than usual and we kept that witch by our side the entire time. You’re right, Dale. She could be more than his henchmen, maybe she’s the one behind the whole thing all long!” Alpha Dale had told me that once Yeti was okay, she was going to be moved to a more secure room. But I didn’t realize they were going to move her so quickly an

Amber’s POV I reached out, tucking a stray strand of hair behind her ear. “You’re being too harsh on yourself, Yeti.” I said softly. “I know that you don’t see yourself as innocent right now because of something you couldn’t avoid, but I know you. And deep down you know it too, that you will never intentionally hurt anyone.” Yeti swallowed and nodded but she still had that guilty look on her face. I settled back against the pillow, closing my eyes as she began to tell us the same story she told Alpha Dale and the others. Even if I had heard it more than a hundred times now, I still listened carefully. The story was short but kind of complicated. Yeti never knew her mother was the same person as Moonstone’s priestess, but she was always suspicious of it and it became clear to her the night when I killed a councilman and lost consciousness. Although her mother had always stressed the fact that her working for Derrick was not something she did willingly, Yeti always had her doubts w

Amber’s POV Although the decision had been made in the heat of the moment, we were to leave in the heat of the moment as well. Alpha Dale had given us three days to prepare while he tried to convince the Council to postpone Yeti’s trial until we returned and also permit her to come with us. The morning we were set to leave for moonstone was heavy with a kind of silence that sent chills through my spine. The thought of returning to that place filled me with dread and anxiety but it was something I needed to do. It wasn’t close to winter but the air outside was cold. Maybe it was all the goosebumps this trip was giving me. I knew I was far from the woman I was more than a year ago. I was stronger both emotionally and physically but… “Are you sure you’re ready for this?” Janine asked. “Yeti won’t fault you if you decide to stay back.” Janine leaned on the vehicle with her arms folded across her chest. She was dressed in all black and she looked more like an assassin than anything.
